The Secret

Hello Darcy!

So sorry it has been awhile! My internet did not want to work for the longest and my weekend was packed with things to do! That is why this chapter is longer than my others and I really hope you all enjoy! The ending is sweet so read on :)

I hear voices…

“Sir, when shall we deposit her to the main building?”

“In about 2-3 days maximum. For now leave the girl with me.”

I feel my body go rigid at his voice but I try not to move. I breathe as if I am still sleeping and keep my eyes close. I am lying down on a hard surface area and through my eyelids I see that wherever I am it is very dark. I try to hear any other voices but most are hushed whispers.

I hear footsteps then a door closing. The guy with my uncle must have left leaving me with Joe…

“Sweetie…” I gulp slightly at his close proximity. “Wakey wakey.” I open my eyes not really seeing any point to pretending I’m asleep when I will have to wake up at some point. I look at Joe. He appears with disheveled hair and dark almost black eyes. He is standing with his eyes on me.

“Where am I?” I look around me. I’m in a small room, the only light coming from a small window to my right. The moonlight is bright with a full moon. Oh if only a cute werewolf could come and save me like in those movies. However, this isn’t some fairytale and I’m in a very crappy situation.

“Calm and quiet isn’t it?” Joe traces my leg. I jerk away from him and get up from the table I was lying on. I look at the door and turn the doorknob, not surprised it’s locked. Oh no… Memories from my childhood are back and I almost burst into tears. I hold myself together trying to fill my mind with rage.

“Very,” I reply. “So why am I here?” I know it’s a stupid question but I’m trying to stall him.

“I believe you owe me some money… or would you rather offer your own special services?” He looks at me with a disgusting smile. I feel the need to run but I do something unexpected.

“Oh really?” I force a smile. “Are you that pathetic, you can’t find pleasure with some other girl? Instead you rather be with your little niece?” I spit the words at him.

His face is distorted into an ugly angry image but he soon replaces it with a smile. He walks closer to me and stops only a few 6 inches from me.

I swing my right fist at his jaw and make contact. It hurt my hand a little but I don’t really notice the pain because noticing him fall to the ground makes me smile with success. He looks at me from the ground, shock displayed across his face. I try to again get away noticing a door behind him on the opposite wall. I run towards it, trying my best to get around him but he catches my ankle and I fall to the ground. I try and climb up to my feet but I feel his body on top on my backside.

“Help! Someone help me!” I scream frantically. I feel Joe grab my thigh trying to turn me around but I kick him in the stomach and he lets go for a moment. I try again to get up but he grabs my leg once more. I kick his face at this point and he legs go again. I get up and run to the door. It opens and I run. I run down a hall way noticing curtains everywhere around me. I continue to run until I reach a hallway that goes to my right.

I hear Joe behind me trying to catch up, until I get caught by the neck by some other strong man, cutting off my circulation. I try and breathe but he tightens his grip around my throat.

“Trying to get away sweet little girl?” He whispers sickly in my ear.

 I try and claw his arms from my neck but his grip is too strong and I feel myself get dizzy from the lack of oxygen.
