SINISTER HEARTS

CHAPTER 2

As Olivia made her way home one chilly evening, the sky painted in hues of twilight, little did she know that her life was about to take a frightening and unexpected turn. She had just left the cozy café where she worked, and her thoughts were filled with dreams of the future.  

Walking along the dimly lit street, Olivia clutched her bag close, her footsteps echoing softly on the cobblestone pavement. The air held a crisp bite, and the glow of streetlamps cast long, flickering shadows.

Suddenly, she blacked out. 

but she could still feel herself being lifted and placed in some sort of vehicle. when she opened her eyes, it was a dark room with more like a dungeon. hopefully there was one window, but it was night and there was not enough brightness that she can see her surroundings. and with that a loud noise is heard of a door being opened she turns her face to see who is there but cannot see anything other than darkness.

"so you are awake," demanded a deep, gruff voice from the leader of the group, a tall and imposing figure who stood before her.Olivia's heart pounded in her chest, but she refused to show weakness. Clutching her bag even tighter, she stammered, "I-I don't have much money. Infact, I don't have anything that could interest you. Please, let me leave."The leader of the gang stepped closer, his eyes cold and unfeeling. "We don't want your money, or anything in that matter, girl. We want you."

Tears welled up in Olivia's eyes as she realized the gravity of the situation. She had been abducted by a local gang, and there was no escape. the leader spoke again, his voice dripping with menace. "You see, we have a special plan for you, sweetheart. You're going to be a gift, a very special gift."

Olivia's mind raced as fear and confusion battled within her. "A gift? What do you mean?"The gang leader grinned, revealing a row of yellowed teeth. "You're going to be a present for someone very important."

Tears streamed down Olivia's cheeks as she realized the gravity of her situation. She was being treated like a commodity, a pawn in a dangerous game she had no control over.Desperation welled up inside her, and she pleaded with the leader, "Please, you don't have to do this. I have dreams, a family who loves me. Let me go."

The leader's laughter was cruel and mocking. "Dreams and family don't matter in our world, sweetheart."

She was trapped, alone, and terrified.

Tears welled up in Olivia's eyes as she mustered the courage to speak. "Please, sir, I don't belong here. I'm just a student, trying to make a better life for myself. I beg you, let me go."

The man's face remained impassive, but there was a glimmer of something in his eyes. It was a moment of uncertainty, a crack in his facade. Olivia seized the opportunity, her voice trembling but determined.

"Please, sir, I promise I won't tell anyone what happened here. Just let me go back to my life. I won't cause any trouble."For a moment, the room was filled with silence. Then, the man turned and left from the very door he entered.

Olivia kept on screaming for hours what seemed like forever "please, please let me go." hoping someone would save her being a pawn but to her luck no one came and fainted from exhaustion.
