The Handsome three ( COMPLETED)

Chapter 15

I wake up from a bright light blinding my eyes. I open them trying to adjust my eyes to the room. I look around to see that I am in a dark room with a bright light just above my head. I see a dark figure walk out from the darkness towards me. I then see four other figures follow. I look up at the man never seeing his face before. I try to open my mouth to speak but my voice is muffled. I try to move around but I found that my hands were bound behind my back in a chair. What's going on?! Where am I? 

"Sorry about that. I wasn't sure if you were going to wake up on the way here so it had to be done," he said as he ripped the duct tape off. I felt instant pain from the rip of the tape. Seriously? He couldn't be  more gentle?

"Who are you? What am I doing here?" I say in an angry tone.

"You probably wouldn't remember me. I was probably only at Highland High for about a week before I had to transfer out." He said now holding a knife in his hand. 

I tried to think back to the beginning of the school year and how The H3 would bully anyone that got on their nerves. 

"So, The H3 bullied all five of you and forced you to quit school. I'm sorry, but what does that have to do with me?" I said trying not to show my fear.

"Well, we are here to get revenge. We were all headed to get a good life. Highland high would have opened a door for us to get into a good college. And you, Rosette Haven, are the key to our revenge!" He said now pointing the knife at me. I gulped in response. "Duke Hamilton is in love with you. Once he comes for you, we are going to beat the living shit out of him." He says with an evil smile. 

I roll my eyes at him. "You guys are Idiots. Duke is not in love with me. Your plan is never going to work. He won't come here." I say. I instantly regretted what I said because he now was holding the knife up to my neck. 

"We will just see about that. For your sake. I hope he does come." I moan in pain as he slices my cheek with his knife. He then raises a cell phone at me and snaps a picture. "Once he sees this picture of you, he definitely will come."

I groan as I punch the punching bag harder and harder. Sweat started to drip down my forehead. With one last hard punch broke the bag off of its chain and it fell to the ground. "Hey! Butler! I need a new bag!" I yell. 

"Right away sir," The butler says walking out of the room. I sit down on my bench panting. I don't get it. I thought she would be happy if I announced that she was my girlfriend. Did that moment in the elevator mean nothing to her? I felt a connection. WE had a connection. I could feel it. I think harder trying to find out why she was so angry. Finally, a light bulb went in my head. I facepalmed myself. Of course! I didn't actually ask her! I just announced it myself. No wonder why she was so mad. My thoughts were interrupted when I hear a ding from my cell phone. I look at my phone to see that I have a message from an Unknown number. I opened the message and my eyes widened in horror. It was a picture of Rosette. She was tied up and blood was coming down her cheek. 

"Fuck!" I breathed. I instantly started to call the number that sent me the photo. This better be a joke or there will be hell to pay.

~~~

I hear a phone ring about two minutes after my kidnapper sent the picture to Duke. He gets a huge grin on his face and shows the phone to me. "I told you your lover boy would call?" He answers and puts the phone on speaker.

"Who the fuck is this?!" I hear a deep husky voice say.

"Someone whose life you destroyed." he responds.

"I swear if you touch her or harm her in any way-"

"You'll what? This is what you need to understand. I have the upper hand."

Duke was quiet for a few moments. "What do you want?" He says in a calmer tone although I could tell he was still pissed. 

"Here is the deal. You come here ALONE. And I'll let your girlfriend go...but if I find out that you bring ANYONE with you. I will slit her pretty little throat in front of you and let you watch her die."

Duke didn't say a word for about ten seconds. "Common Duke we don't have all night."

"Fine, text me the address." he finally says. My eyes opened wide in horror. 

"No Duke don't come!" I yell but it was too late he had already ended  the call. My kidnappers all had huge grins on their face now. 

"Man, I've been waiting for this day forever." One says picking up a baseball bat. 

"Yeah, we finally get to beat the asshole." Another one says cracking their knuckles.

I look at the ground. I didn't even want to think about them hurting Duke. Sure, he was a dick sometimes, but he doesn't deserve this.

I grab my car keys as I walk outside to my car. My body still full of rage. I stop when I hear a voice call my name.

"Hey, bro? Where are you going? I thought we were going to hang out today?" I look back to see Austin with a confused look on his face. Crap! I forgot I had plans with Austin.

"Uh sorry, Something came up." I say opening my car door. I was about to close it but Austin stops it with his hand.

"Wait. Somethings up. What's wrong? You have that worried look in your eyes." He says giving me a concerned look.

"I'll tell you later I gotta go, dude," I tried closing my car door but Austin stops me again.

"No. You're not going anywhere until you tell me what is going on." He says. Austin never gives up when it comes to finding out things. I sigh and tell him everything that happened about 10 minutes ago.

 He was quiet for a few moments, trying to think of something to say." You have to call the police," he says freaking out.

"No. I told you they will hurt her."

"And they will hurt you if you go alone. Let me come with you. We will beat them no problem," he says punching his fist into his palm.

"No. I can't take that chance. I'm sorry bro." I say as I shut my car door. I drive off at full speed, making sure that Austin won't be able to follow me.
