I had a throbbing headache.

I was drugged, not knocked out so why did my head hurt?

Opening my eyes, they take a moment to adjust to the light. And as soon as they did, I wished that I was still confined in the comfortable darkness that I'd just left.

In front of me sat the one person that I would rather see dead, decapitated, and burned.

Or maybe eaten alive by Natalia's sharks.

" Where's your bitch of a sister?" I grit out, looking down to see that my hands were tied with rope.

If I kept moving the rope would irritate my skin so I had to play this safe. I had to come up with a way to get out of these restraints, but I had to play this safe.

Elliot wasn't an idiot, he'd see right through me if I smooth talked my way out of this early on.

" Claire? I thought you two were becoming the best of friends." He seemed oddly fucking chipper.

Maybe because he thinks that he's won, but in the end he will always lose.

They all do.

" Next to you she's on the top of my hit list." I tilt my head as he approaches the seat in front of me." Maybe I'll even let you watch as I slit her throat and take joy in her choking on her own blood."

Elliot looks taken aback at the vision that would soon become a reality when I got my hands on that bitch.

Both bitches really.

" What has he done to you?" He questioned, horrified.

Smirking, I tilted my head to the side, arching my brows as I stared him down. " He showed me my true colors, Elliot. Would you like to see them? I would love to show them to you, preferably the color red."

Red as in the blood that I would draw when I cut his dick off for cheating on me.

He wouldn't be needing it in hell anyways.

Elliot swallowed, too astonished to speak as I rolled my eyes, getting bored of his presence in front of me at the moment.

He was just so... boring.

He gave nothing.

How did I ever think that a marriage with him was going to last?

" This is what's going to happen." Elliot started, peeking my interest slightly. " You're going to return to London with me, we'll get married as soon as we can, and father will hand the company over to me."

So this is what his obsession is about.

The fucking mattress company.

In order for him to get his shares of the company, he needed to get married. He could've asked fucking Mindy to be his wife since he was too busy fucking her instead of me.
