The alarm blared in my ear, spreading through my head, injuring my eardrums. I sit up startled. The loud blaring noise causing a headache as I cover my ears. I look around to realize I fell asleep on the couch.
My mind again focuses on the thunderous sound, my ears sure to go deaf after this.
"Someone turn it off!" Annalise shouts, running downstairs with the other girls hot on her trail. Her voice drowning under the deafening sound.
I snap my head around me when I hear shuffling. "Who's there?" The alarm hasn't subsided but I dismiss it to the back of my head, instead focusing on the possible intruder.
My breath gets caught in my throat when one of the men that attempted to kidnap me reveals himself, a knife in hand. No, not here, not in front of them. They can't handle it. And I won't let them go through it.
My friends are broken, yes. However they aren't gruff and sand downed. They haven't been through what I have, witnessed and caused what I have. They're broken and respectively have their traumas...but they haven't had their set of morals completely ripped from their grasps. They still have the slight innocence of not witnessing or being the cause of someone's death. They can't handle this, and I won't let them go through it.
Over my dead body.
"Take me, and leave them.." I whisper, so only he can hear me. I feel their frightened gaze behind me.
"Why, you seem like you care about them don't you?" He whispers back, his maniac like grin growing.
"My brothers don't. Neither do my family. They're my friends and have no connection to the mafia. They won't help you accomplish shit. I will."
"Alright, I take you with me, we'll leave them alone." He smiles in victory.
"We?"
"Hi Pequeña belleza." Another man comes through the kitchen door, this one holding a gun.
"El-Eleanor..." Edwina says panicked.
"Just relax okay. They'll leave you alone. Go upstairs...all of you." I call out, glaring at the two men knowing there's a third one hidden.
"We're not leaving you!" Anna shouts back.
"Go!" I scream at them. They listen, reluctantly. Aniyah dragging Anna upstairs with an encouraging smile. Edwina following them with heavy breaths.
"Aww your friends left you so easily. I believe we can replace them?" The third one finally appears, coming in from the front door.
Where the fuck is Dimitri when you need him?
"Just leave them alone and I won't put up a fight. Please?" I beg, my eyes pleading.
The first guy gets a wolffish grin. "You won't put up a fight?"
"N-no."
"For anything?" The second one follows.
If your hand lands on my body I will break your neck.
"No." That was a lie.
"Alright, Pequeña Belleza. We'll leave them alone. But you're coming with us." The thirds guy harshly grab my arm pulling me in his hold as I start walking in surrender. Accepting the fact im most likely going to get tortured.
As we step out of the door I notice two SUVs pulling up. It gives me a slither of hope before I feel a gun get pressed against my neck.
5 men in each car get out, two of them Dimitri and Alessandro. "Let her go." Alessandro speaks lowly. A shadow goes over him, almost as if it's a completely new person. He looks darker, scarier, more intimidating, more powerful. He looks like someone to be scared of. And maybe he is.
