My twin sister, the ghost

Chapter Nine

I awoke to a loud banging noise. I opened my eyes and saw sunlight shining in the room from a window to far up the wall to reach. I Had a black scarf tied around my mouth and my feet and hamds were tied. I twisted my arms and a searing pain shot through them. Tears sprang to my eyes and i started screaming, but the scarf blocked my pleads for help. Suddenly the door swung open and a man i didnt recognize came in. He shut and locked the door behind him before comming over to me and grabbing me by my hair. I cried out and the man slapped me across the face.

"Shut up, you worthless peice of trash!" The man snarled, dragging me off the bed by my hair. I fell to floor on my stomach and jerked at my wrists trying to slide out of the ropes. The man grabbed my hands and pulled out a knife. I tried to scream but he grabbed the scarf and tied it tighter in my mouth. He then cut the rope off my feet and wrists. I tried to crawl way but he grabbed my leg and flipped my over on my back. The man punched me in the face and smirked.

"Do you like that little girl?" I cried and shook my head violently. The man laughed and then got on top of me, straddeling my waist. He ran his hands up my waist, slowly sliding the gown up to my hips. I struggled against him but he pinned my hands under my body. He bent down and whispered in my ear.

"If I remove the scarf, will you scream? Let me tell you now that if you do, I will make this much less pleasent for you and when im done, I will cut you limb by limb. Understood?" I nodded my head and flinched as he gently untied the scarf. I licked my bleeding, cracked lips and stared at the man.

"Better?" He smirked, "Because your gonna need those pretty full lips of your." The man leaned down over me and eagerly forced his lips on mine. I jerked my head back, fixing to scream, when I remembered his earlier threat. He leaned up and balanced his weight on his knees. His hands moved to the top of my dress and he grabbed his knife from the floor. He ran the blade across my throat and I winced. With a sudden movement he sliced the front of my dress open, reveiling my throat. He slowely traced the outline of my collarbone and cut a thin slice in my skin. I screamed in pain and the man slapped me again angrily.

"What did I tell you!" He roared, grabbing my dress and puling it up. His hands went for his shirt when suddenly the door burst open. Jaden stormed in the room and grabbed the man by his neck, dragging him off of me. I screamed and crawled to the corner of the room, rocking gently. Buck ran in the room and Jaden roared at him to get the man out of his sight. Buck drug the man out of the room and Jaden slammed the door behind him. Jaden looked at me with a sad expression on his face. He slowly

walked over to me and kneeled on the floor next to me.

"Come here, sweetie."

I jumped up and ran into his arms, wanting comfort. From who, I didnt care. I noticed him stiffen and I looked up at him. He was staring at the blood trickling down my chest.

"Whats your name?" Jaden asked.

"Massie." I mumbled.

"Massie, I like that name. Now, honey, im going to tell you something, but you have to promise not to panic or make any loud noises. Can you do that?" I nodded my head.
