Chapter 8
Paige’s POV
Ahhhh. I shot up and screamed. Why was I having nightmares again? I kept having dreams about me being a killer. I was standing in the middle of a field surrounded by a pile of dead bodies, blood and body parts. I had blood all over me and it was like I was watching myself kill these people. I had a crazed look on my face like I had been possessed by something. It had scared me so much that Marcus was pretty sure I was traumatised by it.
“Paige, Paige, Paige” I voice said from outside.
My body froze and my breath caught in my throat. I kept hearing the voice saying my name and I knew I had to go see who it was. My mind kept trying to control my body shaking but I know it wasn’t going to help. I know my legs were shaking and I thought they were gonna give way and I would fall.
I reached the door and slowly opened it. It was still dark out and I could see the stars through the clouds but my eyes didn’t adjust to anything else. I looked around searching for the person calling my name. I caught a glimpse of a shadow coming out from behind a tree. I could make out a tall man walking towards me. He stood in the glow of the camp lights and I could make out his face.
“Marcus, what are you doing out here.” I asked him.
“Just came back from a flight around town, can you come with me for a second, I wanna show you something.” He said. He didn’t sound like himself though.
He started walking out of the gate and I followed him. I trusted him so I knew I was gonna be fine. I followed him to a house a few streets away from the camp, it looked abandoned due to the boarded up windows. Why was he taking me here? What’s going on?
I walked up to the house trying to look through gaps in the boards but couldn’t see anything. I felt a hand go around my neck. He held a cloth around my mouth and nose and I dropped to the floor.
A few hours later
My eyes opened to see a black wall in front of me. I was sitting in a completely black room. I tried to move my hands but found they were tied behind the back of a chair I was sitting on.
“Marcus, Marcus.” I screamed. Why has he tied up? Something isn’t right here. He appeared at the door frame and smiled at me evilly.
“Marcus why have you done this to me?” I asked. I bite my lip trying not to cry.
“You’re part of my plan. I couldn’t let anything happen to you now could I.” he said.
“Marcus please I……”
“I’m not Marcus, don’t ever call me that bastard’s name.” he snapped.
I looked at him, why would he not want me to call him by his name. What’s going on seriously? He looked at me with a glare and I looked away. His intimidating eyes burning a whole into my head. Wait what time is it. I lifted my head to find a source of light but couldn’t find one.
“What time is it.” I asked him. He looked up at me and then down to his wrist. That’s when I noticed there was no tattoo. I tried to keep myself calm and wondered how this person was.
“It’s just gone three if you rally must know.” He stated.
“Who are you.” I asked, my voice shaking.
“Oww I guess I should tell you, since you’re not going anywhere soon.” He said with a low laugh.
He got up off the floor and stood in front of me. He was very tall so I lifted my head up. I watched as his face changed from the one I knew to one that scared me. He had nearly black eyes and a massive scar going from his eyebrow to the left side of his nose. He had brown hair from what I could see but that wasn’t much because it was still a bit dark.
“I’m guessing Marcus never told you he had a brother, my name is Luke.” He told me.
Marcus had a brother, that’s what he was hiding from me. If he was kidnapping me I suppose he was not good like us. I got confused by everything racking my brain. This is sometimes too much. In all of this I had forgotten about my gift.
I imagined the ropes holding my hands behind my back. I tried and tried to break free of them but it didn’t work. O.K Paige, new plan. I concentrated on Luke now standing at the door with his back turned on me. Why is my power not working? Why couldn’t I get free?
“By now you’re trying to get free or knock me out or something. Don’t. The room is enchanted to make your power useless.” He explained.
Damn it, stupid bloody magic!
Later that day
I was still sat here in the same chair, the same room, with Luke still staring at me like an insane person. It was really uncomfortable, not sitting in the chair but having Marcus’ brother staring at me. Why was he still here it’s not like I was gonna go anywhere, literally. The stupid person why can’t he just leave me alone? I can’t believe I got involved in this. It’s brought me a lot of crap.
“Paige can you hear?” I heard a voice say.
I looked around the room trying to find it. Luke was not even in the room. Great Paige, you’re going crazy.
“Paige, you’re not going crazy just listen to me.” It said again.
The voice sounded like Marcus’ but it can’t be him. What.
“I can talk to you like this, just please tell me where you are. Think it and I will hear you.” He said.
“You didn’t tell me you had a brother.” I thought.
I could just imagine his face, Yep I found out his big secret.
“Where did he take you?”
“There’s an abandoned house a few streets away from the camp, I’ve been here since this morning.” I answered.
“I’m coming Paige and I’m gonna beat the shit outta him.”
There was silence for a second. It has probably been to long since I had cried and my emotions were all over the place. I felt a tear roll down my cheek and waited for Marcus.
“Paige, I love you.” He whispered.
That was it; the tears kept going and going. Sadness, happiness, anger all crowded my body leaving me no time to think about anything. I looked up to see Luke standing at the doorway looking down on me like I was worthless. God did I wanna punch that disgusting face of his.
“It seems you have been in touch with lover boy then” he said.
What the hell. How could he even know? He didn’t hear it, none of it. He wasn’t in the room; I don’t think he was in the house. What?
“How did you know that.” I asked trying not to let my voice shake; I was scared more than before. He laughed his low evil laugh.
“Please I have my ways.” He smirked.
I looked away, why was he doing this. The sick person who kidnaps nineteen year old girls for no reason. I was sure he escaped from a mental hospital. From the corner of my eye I could see him push of the door and walk towards me.
“I heard what you said bitch.” He moved his hand and hit me in the head. My eyes closed and I passed out.
