Mercy on my Soul

SIXTEEN

I walk out of the diner with a sigh as I fiddle with my keys. I get to my car ready to get in when I felt like someone was behind me. I turn to see Apollo standing with a smile. I let out a breath of air as I look away from him. "You scared me," He hums. I look back at him. 

"Hello, Azura," I give him a slight nod before turning to my car. 

"Hi, Apollo," My keys get snatched from my hands and I turn to the other side of me to see Zane. I gulp as I take a step back which so happens to be Apollo's side. Zane tilts his head as he smirks. 

"Hello, gorgeous, did you miss me?" I let out a dry laugh without trying. 

"You mean after you tried to rape me?" I snapped. He chuckles. 

"Is it really rape though? I mean women are put here to serve men. I was simply taking what I deserve. It's your job to make sure men are pleased. Right now we are not." I scuff. 

"You are discussing. It's no wonder why Flore still wants Ryder. You can't seem to please even the desperate ones." He growls and takes a step towards me but I get pulled out of the way Apollo. Zane glares at him. 

"Leave it alone, Zane," He said. Zane lets out a huff. I went to start running when Apollo's arm goes around my waist. I look at him nervously. "Where is Ryder when you need him?" He asked. 

"Waiting on me," I lied. He smirks. 

"Ryder is out of town for a few days. I would know. I was the reason he left town." I tried to tug myself out of his grasp but it was no use. He held me tightly.

"Ryder will kill you for touching me." I fired. He chuckles. 

"Ryder won't make it back to town. Hell, he won't even make it out of the penthouse he's staying in right now. Just face it Azura. You are mine now." Before I had time to say something I was being thrown in the back of my own car and drove to Apollo's club. He forces me into a room in the back of the club and throws me in a cell type of thing. He shuts the door and I turn to him. He smiles. "Sit put," I glare at him. 

"Bite me," He hums before turning around to the door. I let out a yell of frustration and start pacing. My heart started thumping rapidly when I processed what he said about Ryder. I was scared that I wasn't going to see him again. I look up in the corner of the cell to see a camera. I look at it for a moment before climbing on the bed and taking it down. I throw it in the toilet in here and sit down on the bed. I bring my knees to my chest as I cover my face with my hands. 

Silas's P.O.V

"Yeah, okay, I'll check it out," I said to Ronan over the phone. 

"And keep an eye out for Apollo. Ryder is out of town for him and I have a feeling he is going to try something," I sigh as I watch Azura through the diner windows. 

"Okay," He hangs up and I drop my phone on my lap. I was debating on whether or not I should go in. I hum and turn my car off ready to get out when another car shows up. I give a confused look as I watch the black matted mustang hide in the shadows. I couldn't tell who was driving because the windows were tinted. I glance at the diner to see Azura finishing closing the diner. Suddenly the doors open for the car and I let out a sigh of frustration seeing Apollo and Zane walking to her car. They hide behind the trees just as she walks towards the door. She locks the door on her way out and fiddles with her keys as she walks to her car. I was about to get out to stop her when I thought about it. I watched as she talked to Apollo and Zane snuck up behind her. I grip the steering wheel as they put her in the car. I pick up my phone and dial. 

"What?" Ronan says. I turn my car on as they were pulling out of the parking lot. 

"Apollo has Azura," I said.
