Not Just An Experiment

--Chapter Forty-Three--

Kaira's POV:

I just can't understand why they would do that. He works for them! Unless...

They must have seen him kiss me. That would explain it.

Oh Zane... what are they going to do to you? I'm sure it can't be good. It would make sense that kissing their experiments happened to be off limits. Even though I'm pretty certain Zane didn't mean the kiss.

But nonetheless, I still enjoyed it. And for some weird reason, I want another kiss from him. I didn't think I liked him, but now I'm not so sure.

As I divulge my many thoughts, I almost miss the person who enters my cell. The door opening up is what alerts me as a man comes in. He isn't as good looking as Zane, having brown hair and forgetful features, but when I take one look at him, I know this can't be good.

"Hey there, princess," he smirks. Oh boy.

I squirm against my restraints. "What's going on?"

"I'm the one assigned to watch you now."

Oh boy.

I try to keep my voice steady as I speak. "Where's the other guy?" I also try to keep it casual so they don't realize I care about him or know his name. That wouldn't be good for Zane or me.

"He's gone now. Reassigned."

"O-Okay," I mumble.

Then I get an idea. And if it works, I might just be able to escape this place.

He turns to leave, but I stop him, asking, "Actually, c-could you do something for me?"

He turns around, and I can tell that he is curious. "Why should I do anything for you?"

"Please... I just want to be able to lay down. I have been in this position for hours. I-I can't feel my legs."

He thinks for a minute, before coming over and un strapping my arms and legs. I mumble a thanks and stretch my limbs as he turns his back to me. Bad move, boy.

I jump onto his back and wrap my arms around his neck, trying to choke him. But I have no idea what I am doing and he is able to shake me off.

I am thrown to the floor and before I can pick myself up, he is above me. And he does not look happy.

"Nice try, girl," he hisses. Then he kicks me in the stomach.

*cries*
