Caroline Salvatore's outward simplicity masked a labyrinth of secrets, woven so deftly that even her best friend remained oblivious to the trembling vulnerability hidden beneath her poised demeanour. Her strength was a facade, unyielding and impenet...
I could not see anything. I was sure the other men were talking but I could not make out anything. I felt dizzy and nauseous from the long car ride. I desperately wanted to remove the blindfold.My hands were free but she didn't dare move a muscle, afraid of what the men might do.
After what seemed like forever, I felt the vehicle coming to a stop. I heard the car door opening and someone harshly pulled me out of the car. I stumbled out of the car and didn't bother to try to get free from the mans grip. I wouldn't succeed anyway. He was too strong.
"Here she is, boss."
I hit something hard and was about to fall when someone caught me and made me stand upright.
"Remove her blindfold."
I shivered at how husky and cold the voice sounded. My blindfold was removed. I closed my eyes because it stung, thanks to the sudden light. It was morning already? How long did they knock me out for?
The first thing I noticed was a black tie and when I looked up I saw a very grumpy looking man . He had the most chiseled face I have ever seen. Every feature of his face was prominent.

"Did you even hear what I said."
Got to admit, his dangerously quiet tone made me a little scared. I shook my head no. I saw something flash in his eyes. But it was gone. I let out a sigh.
"Luke you take her to her room and make sure you lock the room."
With that he turned around walked passed the huge double doors.I finally looked at the building in front of me. My jaw dropped at how big and beautiful the building was.

I turned to the man who kidnapped her, Luke was it?
"Why are we here?"
Luke rolled his eyes.
"For a girl who looks smart you are awfully dumb. How many times do we have to tell you Caroline? Welcome to your new house."
