As you sit there, bound to the chair and listening to the gunfire ringing all around you, you pray that Dominic and his men are safe. You want to be saved but you don't want anyone to lose their life in the process. You can feel the tears rolling down your face as you hear voices approaching your door. The door opens but the man who walks in isn't the one you want to see.
Nathan walks around the chair and smiles at you. He's covered in blood but you aren't sure if its his or someone else's, you pray its his.
"Alright Bunny, time for us to get out of here," he motions to the men behind you, "untie her."
You begin to panic, "no. Don't do this Nathan. You know this won't end well for you."
He lets out an unsettling laugh, "I could care less about how this ends for me Ana. But I can promise you this, if I can't have you then no one can."
You feel the final rope release and you lunge at Nathan. You manage to tackle him to the ground and begin punching him with everything you have. You are able to do some pretty good damage before the other men pry you off of him. He stands up and wipes the blood from his face.
He gives you his signature glare, "oh you just fucked up big time Bunny."
He takes a step forward and begins beating you. If it weren't for the guards holding you up you would already be face down on the floor. Nathan pulls a knife from his pocket and slices it across your stomach. Before he is able to stab you, there are two gun shots from behind you and then men holding you up fall to the floor.
Nathan quickly grabs you by the throat and holds the blade next to your carotid artery. You look towards the door and see Antonio and Dante standing there with their guns pointed at you and Nathan.
You try to struggle against Nathan but he just pushes the blade further into your skin, just enough for blood to start spilling down your neck.
Antonio locks eyes with you and gives a slight nod. "Boss! In here," he yells.
You hear footsteps and look past the men to see Dominic walking in the room. You heart skips a beat as you lay your eyes on him. You want nothing more than to run straight into his arms but you can't.
Nathan tightens his grip on you. "Ah its nice to finally meet you in person Moretti. I've heard so much about you."
Dominic glares at him, "let her go Nathan."
He laughs, "no I don't think I will. I'm well aware that I probably won't live to see the end of the night but I can assure you neither will she. She is mine whether it is in this life or the next. She belongs to me."
You can feel your blood begin to boil, "I don't belong to you asshole. I never have and I never fucking will."
He moves the knife quickly and slices it across your face. "Not now Bunny; the men are talking."
He readjusts his grip and brings the blade back to your neck. Fortunately for you, you now have a little more room to move. This could be your chance to break free from his grasp and then Dominic can handle him.
You lock eyes with Dominic and give him a small nod. He quickly recognizes that you are about to make a move and pulls out his gun.
Before Nathan has time to respond; you manage to stomp hard on his foot and elbow him in the face. He is so caught off guard by your movements that he lets go of you. You quickly hit the floor as you hear Dominic's gun go off. You try to get back up to your feet but you feel something wrap around your ankle making you crash back onto the floor.
You turn your head to see Nathan grab your calf and slice his blade all the way down your leg. You let out a loud scream at the pain but manage to kick him in the face with your other foot. He lets go of you and rolls onto his back as he continues to bleed from his chest.
You try to crawl to the safety of Dominic but he is already there holding you against his chest on the floor.
"You're okay Ana. I've got you," he says softly as he runs his fingers through your blood soaked hair.
You pull your head away from his chest and look him in the eyes. He cradles your face with his hands and kisses you lightly, careful not to hurt you more than you already are.
You hear a laugh from across the room, "well isn't that just the sweetest."
The bastard is still alive. But not for long.
You glare in his direction and use Dominic to stand up.
"Give me your gun," you say quietly.
Dominic looks at you with a surprised look but hands his gun to you.
You keep Dominic by your side to support most of your weight considering your right leg is cut completely open; but slowly make your way to where Nathan is laying in a pool of his own blood.
You lock eyes with him. "You will never be able to hurt me again Nathan."
The first shot you let out is to his dick. He cries out in pain and you can't help but feel satisfied.
You then point the gun at his head and snarl, "have a good time in hell asshole."
You fire the gun and then there is silence. You lower the weapon and stare at his lifeless body. Its finally over. The man that has plagued your life since you were nineteen is gone. The man that beat, raped, mentally and physically abused you for years is finally gone; for good.
The world around you suddenly starts to spin and become dark. You can feel yourself slipping from consciousness but you aren't sure if its from the adrenaline crash or the blood you are losing from your leg.
Your body suddenly drops but doesn't hit the floor thanks to Dominic.
He holds onto you tightly, "its okay principessa. I have you now; you are gonna be just fine."
You look up at him and give him a small smile, "you rescued me."
"I told you I will always protect you Ana. I love you so much."
"I love you too," you say softly.
You close your eyes but feel a kiss pressed on your temple and hear, "lets go home principessa" before you finally succumb to the darkness.
