Captivating Captive

16- Prisoners

Ayla opened her eyes as she held her ears in response to the loud sound which was followed by a scream which she thought belonged to her.

The first thing she saw was blood that didn't belong to her.

Bane dropped the gun to the floor as he winced. Harvey had shot his arm, Dwayne grabbed the gun that belonged to bane and placed it out of reach.

Dwayne then moved to Bane and pulled his hands together and cuffing them. He used a handkerchief to tie around the gunshot wound while Bane yelled profanities at Harvey.

His attention turned to Ayla when she banged into his desk. "You whore, who asked you to go around kissing men. They died cause of you. Deny it all you want, you just want me to take the blame for your crime." He said with venomous tone.

Ayla took a deep breath of relief and closed her eyes as he was dragged out of the cabin by Dwayne. She felt herself being pulled into an embrace.

She opened her eyes to find herself looking deep into Harvey's beautiful eyes.

He tugged her into the cell that they once shared together. Ignoring all the eyes that followed them.

Everyone seemed to have stepped out of their cells to find out who shot who.

The two walked into the room, ignoring all the hushed whispers around them and found Ben writing down on a piece of paper by the desk, on their entry he got up and his eyes wide.

"Is he dead?"

The two shared a look and ben let out a breath of relief, "he is dead" ben said to himself as he laughed out loud.

"Am I free now?"  He whispered to himself, Ayla looked at Harvey who walked towards Ben.

"Why do you look relieved? I thought you'd be upset."

"Why would I be upset over that man, he took away everything from me and has court case hanging over my head like a guillotine. A murder case, a man HE Murdered. I happened to be the unlucky bystander." He let out a dark chuckle.

"Do you think Nico would forgive me if he knew?"

Ayla looked away, "I'm sorry Ben you misheard the guy has been shot and is under arrest."

Ayla watched his face drop, Ben let out sad sigh. He leaned back against the chair. "So it wasn't going to work out for me." He got up and nodded.

"I'll be out of your way-"

"Help me take him down for good" Harvey said and he paused, he hesitates but shook his head.

"What do you have to lose?" That question stopped him in his tracks. What did he have to lose? He was an orphan, he lost the only person who loved him unconditionally only to work for the man that caused it all.

He turned to look at me.

"What could I possibly help you with? Isn't he already behind bars?" He asked Harvey who still held Aylas hand.

"He is behind bars till we find concrete evidence to keep him in for good. We do have a recording but that can't be the only proof-"

"I still have some of the candies left." Harvey turned to look at Ayla, "where are they" he asked. "It's back in the cell, I'll be back" she said to him and rushed out to the cell that she shared with Lina.

She had let go of his hand as she ran straight  to the cell. She walked in to find Lina on Aylas bed in just her panties and tank top without a bra. She held a piece of cloth to her nose.

Ayla stepped in further and Lina opened her eyes, her lips pulling up in a smirk. Ayla ignored her and was rummaging through her duffel bag.

But froze when she heard the door to the cell shut close.
