Ying Yang love

Chapter 16

ALEMA'S POV

Me and Madi stare at each other for a moment. She gets up and sits, keeping her head down like she's ashamed. I refuse to move as I glare at Bradley "Fine. I didn't want you here anyway, you're boring. Guards take her to the cellar" two shadows emerge and grip my arm as they drag me away, on my way out Madi gives me a sad look.

They throw me into a dark empty room and bolt the door shut. I look around, no windows no doors just a single light bulb hanging from a thin cable on the ceiling with no switch to be found, no doors either it's just an empty dirty dark room.

I close my eyes for a minute. My heart drops, i'm useless... no one wants me...

That's right bitch. You'll never amount to anything Alema, you're just a pathetic boring not to mention easy slut. no one wants you. you'll never amount to anything, you are nothing.

I feel the tears stream down my face.

I scrape my fingers on the brick wall, leaving marks with every stroke. my fingers become raw and numb, I'm pathetic...

I find a small but sharp rock in the corner, I draw the rock to my wrist and start to scrape on it till it bleeds, until my whole arm is covered in cuts and blood, I switch to the other wrist.

You shouldn't be alive you whore! Thats right keep cutting, keep crying like a little child. you shouldn't exist your mere presence means nothing. You are worthless, maybe thats why you were adopted...look at your fat thighs you should be called piggy. Keep cutting.

Both my wrists are covered in cuts now. blood dripping, tears falling. "What the hell are you doing?!" A tall guy covered in black steps closer extending his hand "give me the rock okay? It's going to be okay..." He urges closer but I throw the rock in the corner.

I curl my self up in a ball and start rocking back and forth

He doesn't care about you! god you're so fucking gullible. Do everyone a favour and just kill yourself please.

The blood smears all over "I can't.. I can't I can't. I shouldn't be here! I should've died in the accident I should have" I feel so breathless as I strangle out those words.

The person leans forward cups my chin and pulls my face closer "Black eyes. You're being messed with. Listen to me it's not real okay? Its not real."

Hahahaha. He's right it's not real, he's not real, did you fall for it? You did didn't you? How many times do I need to tell you? No one cares. Just end it.

I start screaming, silent cries coming out. My stomach lurching in pain "NO ONE CARES... NO ONE" I start shaking uncontrollably. The person lifts their hand and back hands me "LISTEN TO ME! OKAY? KEEP FOCUSED IT'S NOT REAL YOU'RE BEING CONTROLLED." They scowl, I look up at the person "you're not real..." They pause for a moment

They grab my hand and pull it to their beating heart "Does that feel real to you? It's a human heartbeat Alema, that's as real as it's going to get. You're vulnerable right which is why it's easy for someone like Artemis to get into your head, you need to fight right now it's your only hope."

I don't know how to fight... i'm so weak. it's hard to go on when everyone around me rejects me, its hard to go on knowing i'm competing with a perfect girl like Madi.... I'm a pig, a slut, a whore. I shouldn't exist on the face of this earth...

Madi's POV

-

I run my hand along the cold floor beneath me that I was sitting on and stare at it. All of a sudden, water comes leaking out from my hand but I don't move. I stare at my reflection in the water then look away.

My father hasn't even called me and he's had the whole day to do so. I slowly stand up and walk towards the door. Before I could open it, it opens for me.

I look up to see a huge guy dressed up in black which makes me step back. He grabs my arm roughly and drags me back out to the lounge room back to where Artemis is.

Artemis smirks as he sees me which makes me look away with no emotion on my face. It's one thing to be a bad guy, but fucking one of his enemies? That's just weird.

The man shoves me down in the seat next to him which makes me freeze. Artemis slowly slides over and puts an arm around me which makes me move away but he roughly pulls me back. "Let her go." I whisper without looking up at his face.

"Hmm? What do I get if I do let her go?" He leans in and smells my hair.

"What do you want?"

"You."

I turn my head towards him and raise an eyebrow. "Fucking Alema wasn't enough for you?"

"I want a bit of everything, really."

I roll my eyes and stand up from the couch. "You can't have me." I walk away but the big guy goes to grab me. I swish my hand and he goes flying which he slams into the wall, making it crumble.

Artemis looks at me in shock and I glare at him. I look back in front and start walking down the halls with Artemis on my trail. I walk faster to get away from him but he goes even faster than I did. "Where is she?" I stop walking and turn to face him.

I cross my arms and glare at him. He grabs my arm and his hand starts to burn which causes me to scream out in pain. "I think you're forgetting about who's in charge here. I don't follow your orders, you follow mine."

He throws me to the ground and I slam my head against the floor. I raise my hand to the blood that was trailing down in my white hair. I whip my head around at him and try to swish him away.

All it does it send air his way. He stands there and walks up close to me. He squats then grabs my chin and I glare into his eyes. "I've let her go. Now, if you want her to get back safe," He tilts his head and looks at the wall behind me then slowly an evil laugh comes out of his mouth. "You better obey everything I say."

Alema's POV

-

I open my eyes to see i'm no longer in the cellar and the guy isn't here either. I frown looking up at my surroundings.

It's dark and gloomy, the walls are made of cracking cement and dead vines, the ground is cold and wet. "hello?" My voice echoes along the walls, I slowly get up and walk forward "Can anyone hear me?!?" I stand in front of the wall and look up, there is no way in hell i'm going to be able to climb this shit where's Lauren when I need her?

I start walking again but stop when I see the person with the knives again. My stomach twists in knots as they wave at me again

Mummy's little girl

I scream and start running, my feet pounding the wet pavement I stop and look back to see they've vanished as soon as I snap my head back I scream as the push me up against the wall and hold a knife to my throat "you're next..."
