It's Not Over

Chapter 10

Olivia's POV

One month had gone by. A month. We were no closer to finding them than we were when they first disappeared.
"We got another vic, same MO as the last two" Fin said snapping me out of my daze.
"Okay" was all I could say.
He closed the door to my office.
"It's been a month Liv, I don't think..."
"Don't say it. They're alive."
"Than they're not in New York."
"Than it's time we bring the search to a national level, global if we need to!"
"Liv" he started.
"They were my responsibility, they are my responsibility. We're gonna find them."

Nick's POV

It's been a month, actually a month, one week and two days. She'd given up hope a long time ago and I was beginning to as well.
We'd made our way to Ohio when Amanda got sick. Very sick.
"She needs to go to a hospital, she's gonna die" I argued with Marcello.
"She'll be fine" he said.
"Hey hey you alright?"
She tried sitting up only to yelp in pain and fall back down. She was so weak.
"No" she said.
"At least get us some water"
He didn't say anything just walked out the door.
"You're gonna be okay" I tried reassuring her.

Twenty minutes passed when he finally came back down this time with more people.
"Take her into the house" he gestured at Amanda.
Two guys grabbed her. She screamed in pain.
"Let her go!"
I attempted to stop them only to be knocked out.

I woke up to water splashed on my face. I quickly realized I was in a chair with my arms tied behind my back.
"Glad to see you're awake."
"What the hell is going on?"
"I just thought we should talk."
"Why in hell would I want to talk to you?"
"I know things about you, things even you don't know about yourself. Things you've buried for years and years."

Amanda's POV

They lead me from the cellar to the inside of the house where I was greeted with an eagar "customer".
"You do what they want, okay?"
The guy grabbed my hair and pulled me back to make sure I was listening. I nodded.

Before we even started I felt myself getting nauseous. He was on top me I knew this wasn't gonna end well.
"I need to go to the bathroom." I said.
"I'm not finished."
"Please"
He hit me.
"Shut up"
I managed to get free and rushed to the bathroom where I threw up in the sink.
"Hey, what the hell I said I wasn't finished!"
"I'm sorry, I don't feel well."
"Whatever, I'm telling Marcello."
"No please don't" I pleaded. "I'll do anything, anything you want."
"What I want is to watch you get punished"
He opened the bedroom door.
"Tell Marcello to bring up toys, she needs a punishment." He told the guy in the hall.

I must've passed out from the pain because the last I remember is being naked and Marcello's guys doing god knows what to me with the muzzle of his gun. Now here I was dressed and back in the cellar.
"You're awake, thank god"
Nick looked like hell. He must've pissed someone off.
"What happened to you?" I asked.
"Um, nothing"
He was lying, but I didn't say anything.
"Did you get anything to eat?" he asked.
"No"
I hadn't had anything in three days.
"Here, eat this"
He pulled a stack of crackers from his pocket.
"How'd you?"
"They fed me, I snuck some knowing you probably wouldn't be."
"Nick"
"Yeah"
"Thank you"
"It's no problem. Now what'd they do, are you hurt?"
I felt dizzy suddenly.
"Doesn't matter" I said. "I'm so tired"
"Okay, go to sleep. You need it"
Just like that everything went black.
