Obsessed

Chapter 22

Bella P.O.V

A full bucket filled with freezing cold water and even some ice in it is poured all over me, waking me from my unexpected slumber. I let out a loud cry, my body shaking in cold and my heart beating at a very fast rate. I gasp for air as I shake my head from side to side to get the water out of my eyes.

James laughs as he takes a seat in front of me. I push myself against the wall he has me chained up to. I notice he untied my hands from above my head to behind my back. I can feel my blood running back down to my fingertips.

James clears his throat and smiles at me. "I figured it was uncomfortable for you to have your hands over your head all that time. You're welcome. Could use the shower, huh?" He laughed and bit off from his bagel. "I think she does too." He points to the dead woman beside me. "She smells like shit."

I look at the corpse beside me.

"Who is she?" I asked. "Or, who was she at least? Did you even know her name?" James glared at me. All signs of amusement gone. "Did you stalker her as well? Tell me, did she have any family? A boyfriend? Did you drive her mad as well? As mad to the point she didn't want to live anymore as you did with all these other women before?"

He shook his head. "Nope. I'll be honest with you, I have no fucking idea who she is." He leaned back against his chair. "I picked her up at a bar. I was bored and she was the perfect catch."

"You were bored? What kind of sick bastard are you?" I snap. "You make me fucking sick."

"Watch it!" He stood up and grabbed me by the jaw. "You better watch it because I can change my mind and kill you right now or I can give you two more hours to live."

I gather all the spit in my mouth and spit at him right in the face.

"Fuck you."

He chuckled and cleans his face with the end of his sleeve. "You shouldn't have done that."

"Where is Ava?"

"Fuck you," he mocks. Just then, he grabs me by the hair and pulls my hair closer to his face. He punches me twice on the jaw, which causes me to spit blood. "I gave you a chance and you blew it away. Now deal with the consequences."

I press my lips together and glare at him straight in the eyes. He pushed me right back against the wall and walks away, closing the doors of the warehouse behind him. I use this time to fight my way out of the chains and without any problem take my hands out of the tight knot he made around my wrists. He is so fucking stupid.

I stood up when an idea came to mind.

"I'm sorry," I said to the corpse before I untie her arms and drag her back to my spot, ignoring the protest of my aching wrist. I wrap the chains around her and place her hands behind her. I take off my boots and put them on her.

There's enough darkness here for him to think that's me, only of he's not close enough to notice but he won't be. I'll make sure of that. I run to the door of the warehouse and look out from the small opening at the door. He is standing outside beside the car with a guy in hand. He is loading it. In the car I see a car seat where Ava sleeps in.

I walk around the warehouse, looking for something I can use as a weapon. I soon mind the metal stick I used before. I grab it and quickly find a hiding place when the doors reopen again.

He walks in with determination and makes his way back to where he had me. I watch him as he takes out the gun and shoots five times. I flinch with every shot, thinking that if I had not moved, those shots would have ended me right then. He kneels down in front of the body and laughs.
