The Night We Met

Chapter 31-Terrible Trouble

Unknown's POV
"and what about the girl?" I speak in a cold voice and she sighs behind the phone

"She's safe" she says as she quickly ends the call and i look at the phone screen in disbelief

This bitc-

•several weeks later•

"TRY HER AGAIN" i say to the person standing in front of me who flinches at my tone and quickly dials the number putting in on speakerphone

A few rings go by until the dial goes to voicemail and i let out a frustrated sigh

"Y'ALL HAD ONE FUCKING JOB, YOU.SHOULD'VE.KEPT.AN.EYE.ON.HER"

"we're tracking her boss" he says in a professional tone and i pinch the bridge of my nose

"Forget her. She's no use now. Find the girl" i say and he bows then leaves

I put my hand on my forehead as i dip my head further back sighing,

They all can't even do one thing right.

Suddenly her image flashes in my mind and i smile to myself

I remove the papers from my desk with my free hand and clear out her polaroid

"Amore" i say softly as i look at her happy face

"You're mine, only mine" i say as i trace her picture

I'm gonna have to get you fast, I'm afraid that someone's planning to keep you all to themselves

Isabella's POV
"BECAUSE YOU ARE MINE" Cole shouts turning around and i look at him with wide eyes

His eyes look straight at me and i suddenly feel so weird around him.

"Cole" i whisper and he snaps his eyes shut, opens them again and his expressions change

He looks at me with a gentle gaze and my heart starts to beat faster

"Listen Isabella" Cole says as he walks to me and i take a step back

He stops for a second, considers his actions and then takes a step forward again

Frightened, i take a step back when he takes one again

Soon enough, my back hits the wall and he smirks

"Now listen" he says softly, his breath fanning over my nose

His height makes me feel so tiny and this situation makes me feel even more scared

"i want to stay with you, be yours, forever." He says softly tugging a strand of hair behind my ear and i shiver at his touch

"All i want in return is for you to accept this" he concludes and i look at him confused

Why Isn't he forcing me like he did when he bought me here?

"Isabella trust me, I wasn't going to do this abduction but everything was going out of hand and-" he stopped short and bit his lower lip

"And what" i repeat his last word and urge him to continue

"And i thought i was going to lose you" he said with a genuine scare in his tone.

My body was trembling uncontrollably and there was no way i could calm myself right now. I felt like i was living in a movie, there was no way my life was like this right now

"Cole i need time" i managed to speak in between my frequent exhales and inhales

"Of course this whole room is yours" Cole said taking a step back and gesturing to the massive room behind us

"Uh. About the flowers" he spoke and i noticed flowers along the white and black platform bed

"I told them to make it romantic, they freaking decorated it like a honeymoon" he let out a small laugh and i looked at him

"Anyways, I won't disturb you" he said and walked towards the door

"Also this door would be locked for, just in case you know. If you need anything, there's a maid outside this door, call her from inside and she'll get you whatever you want. There's also a telephone on the bedside table, there's only one extension in it, that is my room's. So call me- whenever" he said the last word almost a whisper and then exited the room without waiting for a response

I crashed on the bed sobbing as i recalled everything that happened

I need to get hold of myself

I thought of calling Nicholas but soon realized I didn't even know where i was neither did i have an option to do that

I was here in some unknown mansion with no clue on what to do and how to go back
