Dull.


Dull would describe how she looked standing next to him. She faked a smile and everyone seemed to believe it besides me. I knew her better than everyone, I couldn't be fooled by that simple smile. When she was happy it showed in everything she did....

I should have noticed it before when I had her. Before he got a hold of her, before he tainted her with his manipulation and touch.

My jaw clenched watching her beside him quietly as his hand stayed on her lower back. Only thoughts of breaking his hand overwhelmed my mind once his hand trailed down to her bum. I want to rip his fucking arm off and beat him with it. I downed another glass unable to keep my eyes off of them.

I hated seeing her like this, I hated seeing them together but I refused to leave.

I wouldn't step foot out the door till I found out what he fucking had over her. She wouldn't be here on her own, no one would.

He was making her stay here like he was making her wear that fucking dress and it was driving me crazy. I fucking hated it, she was showing too much. She wouldn't dare wear something so revealing.

I bet all the guys were looking at her body wishing and hoping they could see what's underneath it.

I'm losing my shit here.

His hand went up her back as his arm wrapped around her waist and that instant I saw a red.

She winced in pain.

Why did she wince like that?! He hurt her, he did something to her!!

He's fucking dead. I was out of my seat ignoring Heather call me as I stormed towards them ready to hit him but was blocked by Liam's arm as he gave me a warning glare.

"Mo-" "Harry" "He hurt her" I growled looking back at him smiling down at her. "You beat him up now and you'll mess up everything -" "He put his hands on her" I snapped. All I can picture is him touching her. Him touching my princess. Him hurting my princess!

"I know you're pissed. I know you want to kill him but, I need you to calm down and not cause a bigger scene than you're already doing" he said quickly pulling me back to the table with Heather.

"We're going to get her, we just need to find out what he has on her" "But what could be stopping her from going home? A plane ticket?" Heather whispered and I shook my head. "She could buy another. Has to be something he knows would be hard for her to get"





Main Character POV





I sighed taking my heels off. It was two something, people were starting to leave and I was so happy it was over. I was tired and a bit nauseous from the amount of liquor consume to get through this day with him. Zayn was still drinking and talking to people and I was so thankful, maybe I can get away from him for a bit.

He held me by his side the whole night watching me. Making sure I couldn't talk to anyone, most importantly...

I looked around for him and swallowed hard not seeing him. He believed him. He believed we were engaged in life.

He didn't get the message.

I continued upstairs feeling tears form from disappointment. I quickly wiped the ones starting to fall as I opened the door and froze as my heart stopped for a second. Two pairs of eyes fell on me holding stuff in their hands. My stuff.

I stood there in shock but, definitely happiness to see his green eyes. But damn was I confused.

"What - what are you doing? I started watching them through clothes into my bags. "Getting you out of here" he quickly said in a rush. My heart swelled hearing the determination in his voice. He was here to help but, I couldn't go.

"I can't" he stopped walking over to me as Heather continued. "We got this under control love" My heart skipped a beat hearing that again. My body instantly felt warm hearing him say that one simple word.

"All I need is for you to go downstairs and act like nothing is happening... I know you're tired but, I need you to just hold on for a bit. Can you do that for me?" He whispered with pleading eyes.

How could I resist?

"He has my-" "I know. We're looking for it now go" he hurried and I turned walking back out the room. He knows but, how the hell did he plan to get me out of here?

I put my heels back on heading downstairs and once I got down then Zayn called me. I swallowed hard walking over to him as he stared at me closely. "Give me a second" he said looking at his friends then back to me grabbing my hand and pulling me to the other side with no one there.

"Where did you go?" He demanded glaring me. "Upstairs, I needed-" "Did you tell me ?" I swallowed hard shaking my head. "I just-" "Did you tell me?!" He demanded and I looked down. "No" I whispered in fear. "So you went against my rules?" "My head-" "Answer me" he growled grabbing my arm and squeezing it.

"Yes" I winced and he chuckled. "Can't resist being punished can you?" "Zayn" something called and he turned holding his finger up then back to me leaning down. My heart was pounding in my chest and I'm pretty sure he could hear it. "You wait until everyone leaves..." He whispered darkly pulling away to look at me with hard eyes. "You know what, don't move" he ordered quickly walking away.

I looked around breathing hard as he went to the DJ. What is he doing?

"Alright everyone, time to leave. The party's over now get out" he said into the mic smiling as people laughed. "I have things I have to take care of" he said looking over to me smirking and people started whistling and cheering.

If only they knew what he meant.





*****


With every person that disappeared my breathing got harder and my heart rate sped up even more. He was going to beat me. All I could think about is the whip hitting my body as I screamed out in pain and he enjoyed it.

I was thankful for Lou, Liam, and Niall, they were in a conversation with him and they were the last ones to go. At least that gave me some time.

He was also laughing with them so I was praying somehow they would make him forget about me earlier. "Come on one more drink mate" Liam said handing him a drink as he handed everyone else theirs too. "You're engaged man, were not gonna have any more nights like these" Niall joked and he laughed shaking his head.

"Okay one more" he said grabbing the drink. "To happiness" Liam said holding his drink up and everybody cheered to it drinking it down.

They continue talking for a while as I still stood there in silence and suddenly Zayn started holding his head stumbling a bit. I looked to him confused as everyone else did. "You okay mate?" "Not really... feeling good" he said as Liam grabbed him.

"Let me get you to your bed" Liam said pulling him towards the steps. "Watt wait... Where's is she?" "She's right behind us, let me get you to your bed" "Noo I ned to take her duwnstairsss" he slurred. "You can take care of whatever in the morning now come on" he said heading to the steps as I relax a bit. I didn't have to worry about it tonight. I had a few hours away from him.


I was grabbed and pulled from behind quickly and I tensed up ready to scream. "It's me" he whispered making me instantly relax into his hold. He spun me to face him, smiled grabbing my hand and pulling me towards the door quickly. "Wait. He still has-" "Liam got them out of the safe and gave them to me" he said continuing to pull me towards the door. Once he opened the door quietly and quickly, we ran out.
