* Chapter 18 *

-Tashay Pov-
I managed to open my eyes examining all the surroundings surrounding me.

I attempted to yawn as the cold tape on my mouth slightly ripped causing me to cry in agonizing pain, I used my tongue to slide across the bottom of my now half exposed lip. The blood tasted disgusting.

The sunlight seeped through the beige curtains of the basement. All I remembered was...Usher. His hands around my neck, his voice seeping through my skin. His eyes burning holes into my face.

I moved my mouth around ripping the tape as it fell to pieces onto the couch I was laying on.

I licked around my dry blooded mouth moaning in pain, I tried to keep it quiet yet it was hard due to the excruciating pain assembled throughout my body.

I managed to rearrange my arms to face in front of me so I could stare at the handcuffs.

I looked at my jogging suit with blood spots covering them as I whimpered.

The basement door's locks clanked causing me to jump.

"God please help me..please help me..please." I mumbled to no one in particular, I seen some all white Nike's walk towards me as I panicked.

I jumped up running into a dark room, I slid under the bunk beds quieting my breathing.

I heard footsteps all throughout the rooms as they stopped once they got to the bunk beds.

He kneeled down almost seeing me as I slid further down staring at him.

He stood back to his feet when I heard a clicking noise then a gunshot.

My breathing slowed as I heard the basement door slam shut, I heard glass shatter causing me to whimper even more.

I rolled from under the bed regaining my balance, I huffed and puffed on my way over to the basement door.

I placed my ear to it hearing him talking on the phone distantly then a door shut.

Wrangling with the door I turned the knob and to my surprise his dumbass left it open. I walked further up the steps opening the next one walking into his spacious home.

Something was telling me to hide so I went with my gut taking flight up the stairs.

I ran into his room grabbing the pants he'd wore the night before, I searched his pockets when I came across a key. Dropping his pants I harshly stuck the key into the keylock turning it as the cuffs unlocked, I threw them under his bed, I opened the window throwing the key out before slamming it back shut.

I raced into a room filled with electronics before slamming it shut, I admired the four bulleted locks before using them all to lock the door.

I heard a door downstairs creak open that's when my heart literally sank to my feet.

Oh please don't have him come in here. I spotted a phone lying in the wall before dialing 911, it rung once before an operator came over the phone.

Before they could even speak I outspoke them. "Uh I was k-kidnapped..please h-help me. I don't know where I am and-" Even before finishing my sentence that's when the door busted open causing the bolts to smash into me and the line went dead, I dropped the phone slamming into one of the desktop computers.
