Denver

35: Love 2

*Denver's pov,*

I kept the call mute for an instant
and called my man towards me.
They arrived by the minute,
I called them,
they look tensed, I said ,

"I need the location of this place right in this instant. "

" Yes sir !"

they replied and went out.

I kept walking here and there
around my office ,
hearing her trembling voice on my phone.
She was counting
Fourteen
Fifteen..
It was evident to me that she was a crying mess.
It was really painful for me ,
How I wanted to be there for her.
I wanted to hug her tightly.
I wanted to whisper sweet
nothings into her ear.
I wanted to calm her down ,

" Denver? "

she called terrified .

"Ella, I'm right here with you,
continue counting.
Don't worry, say it."

"Twenty five,
Twenty six "

* Author's pov, *

She was standing there holding the phone counting.
Scared was an understatement
to what she was feeling.
Her trembling lips kept on counting word by word .
suddenly , Joshua came running
trying to find Her.
He then found her in the phone booth. Anger frustration ran through his veins. He just have to drag her to Lazzaro ,
And he'll give him lots of money so that he can run away from
this hell of a place.
And now when everything was going according to the plan that small bitch was running away from him.

He went towards the booth,
held the handle and tried to open it,
but to no Avail.
She was holding that from the inside.
It was locked .
She was so afraid that she tightly clenched to that handle without even realising .
His anger knew no bounds.
He started thrashing the knob.
When she realised she turned to look at him, fear was all over her.
Tears were flowing from our eyes,
fear anxiety engulfed her ,

" open up , You bitch ,
do you think you can run away?
No one here can save you here ,
They will never find you .
Lazzaro already told me that guy won't even care for you ,
He can just go and look for another girl for the night instead .
I'll drag you back where you belong to. "

He screamed.

"Sixty five
Sixty six
Sixty seven "

She continued counting crying ,
She was scared but she won't stop ,
She believed in him he'll come,
She is strong She can hold him longer...

After hearing joshua's words ,
There was someone at the end of the phone call ,
Who was clenching his teeth ,
His eyes held a deadly glint that would only end after a bloodshed..
The tearful voice of her counting was making his heart clench.
His fists that was holding the steering wheel tightened.

K I L L

was all he could hear.
On the other hand there she was
still counting ,
too afraid, but too brave,
A firm belief she had .
She then slided down holding the phone still counting.
He was going to come in.
The door was worn out after so many failed attempts ,
a bit more and the door will break,
a bit more and he'll...
Come inside...

A single reason it was,
a single thing that gave her the strength, The strength to fight against that person
She only wanted to tell him
she only wanted to stay alive till that very moment ,
She doesn't have to be scared
he'll save her
she believes in him,
but right at that moment the guy in front of her terrified her the most ,
once upon a time who was her dream was now her nightmare,
what an irony it is!
Cause that nightmare who once made her scared is now her strength.
She did start to lose her heart to that nightmare.
And the thing is, she doesn't regret even a little bit.
