"Cameron." I said tiredly. I did not want to explain the situation to anyone else. "I found something out from Maria when I went to his mothers house. Something I'll never forgive anyone for. So no, I'm not sorry for leaving without telling anyone. I didn't speak to Rex because I knew I would stay if I did. I only have a soft spot for him and he knows that." I said pointing at his chest and right when he opened his mouth William and Carmelo came back.

"I hope your conversation is over, I'm starving." William said in a groan and walked next to Cameron. "What did she tell you exactly?" Cameron ignored them and stared at me angrily.

I had a feeling that it wasn't towards me.

"I don't want to talk about it." Maria told me she's ashamed of her daughter so it would be the best if I didn't tell it to anyone. I understand that. "Fine. I'll find it out." He said before they left and I went to my room to take a long shower. I decided that I'm going to take Karl's job because I'm not getting any other jobs.

It was pretty easy what he's asking for anyway. Find the guy that escaped from the gang and bring him back. I've been tracing his footsteps for a few days since nothing new was happening with Harvey. "Hello." I answered the phone when Karl called. "Temptress, you have no idea how flattering it is to finally meet you. I hope to hear good news for you today." I almost yelled out when I was about to step on my cat from hurrying.

"I'm on it. I've figured out his location. Does it matter if he's dead or alive?" I asked on the phone and heard them take a deep breath before answering. "Bring him alive. I need to have a chat with him. It's okay if he's got a few bruised bones, just make sure they're not fatal." I cleared my throat and got into the elevator. "Got it." I hung up and walked to my car.

I was back at the club where it all started. This is where Rex used to bring me for his meetings. I walked in and looked around for a guy that matched the picture I saw but no one similar was in my vision. Maybe he left. I checked my phone for the tracker Carmelo helped me set up and saw that he's still here.

"Temptress." I heard someone say breathlessly. I narrowed my eyes and looked behind me. "How do I know you?" I said coldly with a attitude. If he's bothered by it he should've known that I love playing dirty. "You worked for me just a month ago. I didn't know you came here. If I did I'd promise you a drink." He said extending me his and I shook my head. "I'm here for business. Another time." He raised his eyebrows.

"Oh come on. Why don't you let anyone see you by the way? Maybe you can give me just a glance." He said reaching out to my mask. I pulled out my dagger and placed it in his throat before he could reach for my mask. "Go on." I grinned at him when he looked at me scared. "What wouldn't I give to have you under me for one night." He sighed and my smile dropped. "Go pay for a prostitute. I'm not in the mood." I said before turning behind and looking around again.

I saw the guy sitting at one of the empty couches and walked next to him. "You look bored and I'm lonely. Match made in heaven, don't you think?" I said and he looked at me with a smirk.

"Who said I'm bored? I was just enjoying being alone. I'm kind of wanted by a whole gang so I'm thrilled enough, don't worry about it." He said it way too happily for someone who has a price in their head. I gave him a small smile before opening my mouth slightly and turning to him.

"I see why Rex Rosetti fell for you." I narrowed my eyes and my face dropped. "Who?" I asked sounding shocked which is how I was anyway. "Even when you weren't the mysterious Temptress, Karl wanted you badly, Arabella. Everyone did." I was about to stab him but my arms were held back. "What?!" The next second a cloth was showed in my mouth, gagging me. I started yelling but no noise came out.

I was dragged back to the exit and felt a sharp needle being injected in my neck. The guy picked me up bridal style before throwing me in the car and I passed out right away.

I was in complete darkness when I woke up and my mouth was extremely dry from the gag. Why did I even need it anymore if I'm at their place?

God, why don't I ever listen to my fucking gut feeling?

I'm trapped now by a fucking harasser. The door opened and I had to shut my eyes due to the light hurting them. They pulled the cloth from my mouth as my eyes adjusted and I blinked up to see the person. I don't know them, of course. "Here." They shoved a liquid down my throat which tasted like water but it was salty.

I'm being drugged. Again.

"I'm going to fucking watch you die. One by one." I muttered and heard the guy chuckle.

"I don't think you're going to be able to do anything when Karl's done with you. He's been asking for you ever since he saw you." I tried blinking up at him again but my eyes felt heavy and I shook my head to stay awake. "Don't fight it." The guy said as he closed the door behind him and I looked around for my surroundings the last time before I passed out.

When I woke up again my head hurt terribly and I was laying on some sort of a hospital bed.

But I was tied.

I panicked. There's only a small amount of time before I start screaming. No no no NO! I tried to pull my hands free but it was no use. I looked around for anything I could use to get out of here. Hell freeing just one hand could've been enough but no.

Luck is never on my side.

I shook my head trying to clear myself from the thoughts I was having.

TW- SEXUAL ASSAULT

Flashback

I had yet earned another day at the roof for disrespecting my mother but I didn't even say anything wrong. She was just butt hurt that I'm smarter than her. I don't understand how she can expect a sixteen year old to do the things she's asking me to do. I just hope Erik doesn't come upstairs this time because he's extremely weird.

I think I saw him trying to creep up my skirt. I don't know if my mother saw it but she wouldn't care anyway.

I heard the door handle being fiddled with and widened my eyes.

Is it over already?

But It felt like I just came here twenty minutes ago. Maybe mother is in a good mood today. The slight expression of hope dropped from my face when I saw the questionable creature who was known to be my mothers boyfriend. Such a downgrade.

"What did you do this time, naughty girl." I narrowed my eyes as he got close. Too close.

"Get away. You're too close." I said when he leaned over me. He placed his hand on my neck and it went down to the middle of my cleavage. "Stop!" I yelled when it kept going down. "Alright. I'll stop." He pulled his hand away and I heard metal being played with.

I leaned my head down to see that he had removed his belt and grabbed my hand.

I zoned back to my current position but completely snapped. My patience and all hope was gone.

I'm tied up again. Just like when...

I started screaming till my throat completely closed.
