Trident Kings

Chapter 33

Diana smiled as the salty breeze caressed her skin. She dipped her toes into the sand as the waves kissed her feet. She tilted her head back and enjoyed the sun. This is perfect she thought as she laid back in the sand and relaxed. There was no stress or drama happening, she was just enjoying a day at the beach.

This is where she wanted to be for the rest of her life. Well....maybe just part of her life, she didn't want to have to deal with hurricanes, or tourists now that she thought about it. Yeah maybe the ocean would just be a vacation thing for her. She sighed as she sat up and pulled her knees up to her chest. What did she want out of life? She watched the waves crash around her and thought. She wanted peace and quiet. Somewhere with a lot of land so she could have animals. She loved animals, they loved her unconditionally and gave her the calm that she needed.

She stood and walked out into the ocean until she was waist deep. This was exactly what she needed right now. She dove into the water and smiled as the water soothed her warm skin. She came back up for air and floated on her back for a little bit. This felt like home, she guessed it had to do with being a Pisces. She headed back to the shore and sat back down so her feet were still in the ocean and she started watching the waves again. It was so beautiful and she smiled as she watched some dolphins in the distance. She wondered what it would be like to be a mermaid but then she frowned since that meant she would have to eat seafood and she despised seafood. Nope, she would just be content visiting the ocean as much as she could.

She frowned as the sun started to set, it was time to head back inside before the sharks started arriving to feed. She stood and watched the waves for just a little bit longer then started heading up to the house. She unlocked the door and then relocked it once she was inside. She took a quick shower then slipped on some comfy sweats and tank top. She curled up on the couch, turned on the TV, and started working on her hair.

"Time to wake up, Sweetheart."

She frowned and looked around for his voice but she was home alone.

"Wake up Mi Amor."

She got up and started walking through the house.

"Wake up Luv. You need to wake up now Luv."

Pain jolted through her chest as she screamed, waking up and groaning as she realized it was just another dream. "Fuck," She mumbled as blood trickled out of her mouth.

"Good, you aren't dead," The man said as he smirked, "yet anyway."

She groaned as he grabbed her chin forcefully. "I still won't tell you anything."

"You will soon enough," He chuckled, "I just need to find the right motivation. Obviously nearly killing your boyfriends' didn't do it but next time I'll make sure they are closer to death."

"They aren't my boyfriends," She moaned, "they were my bosses."

"Oh they were more than that," He shook his head.

"I swear they were just my bosses," she shook her head.

"You lived with them," He chuckled as he picked up his favorite knife. "If you were just an employee you wouldn't live with them. They are still searching for you, you obviously mean something to them."

"I was just their personal assistant," She whimpered as he slowly dragged the knife down her chest. "I just know their routines for work, that's all."

He sighed and put the knife down, "Go find us a new place, this one is boring me." He uncuffed her hands and laughed as she fell out of the chair. He grabbed her by her hair and pulled her over to the table with the laptop then kicked her. She let out a groan and he laughed. "Get up Bitch, you better find us a place by tomorrow or you won't like what I will do next."

She pulled herself up and sat in the chair in front of the laptop. She started looking for new places to move to and after a couple of minutes he walked away. She kept searching then when she was certain he was away she pulled up another app and started typing away. She had to be quick before he came back. She quickly sent it then closed the app and erased the history of what she did. She did some more searching then found what he was looking for. She made sure everything then slowly pulled herself out of the chair, forcing herself not to scream as the pins pulled out of her skin.

"Are you done yet?" The man screamed as he leaned over the balcony.

"Yes," Diana nodded and pulled the paperwork from the printer. "It's all ready."

"Good, because if you didn't she would be pissed," He chuckled, "and you know what happens when she doesn't get her way."
