Tempting Danger and An Offer One Can't Refuse

Chapter 6: Kidnapped By A Monster

Stefan saw Neryssa's car at her house and knew that she must have made it home and that she was safe. He would apologize to her tomorrow and hope that she would accept his apology.

Stefan stared straight at the house one last time, before leaving and turning and walking away looking up at Nerysaa's bedroom window which was dark and had no light.

I woke up. It was dark. I was trying to catch my breath and move, but I couldn't as I felt my hand chained at least one of them, as I pulled realizing that the chain and the cuff on my hand could only go so far. I got off what seemed to be a soft king-sized bed.

I then looked at my feet, they were cuffed as well. I had my shoes on. I looked around the dark room, now in a panic, and trying to control my anxiety to try and figure out where I was. My eyes went more around the big room to above the ceiling. I was trying to see how far the chain could go. I was chained like an animal. I desperately tried not to cry and to try and figure out how to escape. There was only one window. But I could barely even see out it, as it was night and dark. I kept trying to go and move, pulling the chains on the bed and falling on the wooded floor. Just then, I heard a noise, and I quickly had my eyes wide and big as I realized it was downstairs but..." Someone was coming up?"

"I quickly, got the chains and picked them up, and went back to the bed. I then pulled the covers over me and sat up, waiting to see who it was in the darkness. And then, I saw a figure and shoes creaking on the stairs that seemed to be coming up. Was, I upstairs?"

I then, saw a figure create a shadow. I was scared more than I could ever anticipate. Just then I heard a sound and saw a person with a match, lighting what seemed to be candles on a chandelier. As I heard the strike of the match. The person's back was to me, as I saw that they wore a white blouse and that their back was huge and muscled. I paid attention to their hair as well. As I saw it was black. The person was male. I held the covers tight with my fingers grasping the cover desperately.

But the male's voice now spoke, as I knew, he was a man. He kept his head on straight, and his eyes on the burning candles.

"Apologies, that, I kept you in the dark. You were sleeping so well and soundly, that I didn't want to disturb you. And, quite frankly, I...just couldn't bare, the thought of waking you."

"It just wouldn't, be fair and good on my part. You are so beautiful when you are sleeping Neryssa."

He knew, my name? How did he.....?

"Who, are you?"

"Where, am I?"

Elijah smiled to himself, at the sound of her voice and he turned around to Neryssa, who he could see was in shock and now trembling and shaking. Neryssa had a hand over her mouth and was in fear. She had tears as well. But, that didn't matter to him that she was crying. He didn't want to see her upset, but her tears and her sadness would pass. She'd have no choice, as he wouldn't let her go.

".....E..l....i...j.....a....h?"

He then turned around and I saw him, as clear as day, and as the candles burned. He was near, the table table. I could see clearly, however: now, where I was. My brown eyes lingered on the individual, as I looked at him, with serenity. I gasped even more with fear,  as it washed over me, like that of a shore. He was the one, who had done this? Chained me up? And kidnapped me? And had me like this?
