Going Home

Chapter 8

Recap:

Axel's Pov:

If it was even more possible, I blushed even harder. He took off the handkerchief off my mouth and threw it aside. He brushed some hair off my face and tucked them behind my ear. "You're so stunning. I love your eyes, and..." He trailed off and slowly leaned closer, my breathing became rapid and so did my heart beat. I felt butterflies explode in my stomach, I felt his warm breathing on my lips. And I felt my eyes automatically close, while I leaned in also.

Present:

I felt his breathing on my lips, we were so close but then all the memories of the kidnapping flashed through my mind. Oh God this is all wrong. I gasped and my eyes shot open and I ruffly pulled back. I almost fell back causing a squeal out of me. Daniel quickly grabbed me, preventing me from falling. He looked at me softly and his eyes held a hint of sadness.

"Do you want to eat?" He broke the tense silence growing between us.

I let out a deep breath and bit my lip. Then I frowned and nodded my head.

He went behind me and I felt him untying my arms, then he untied my legs. I moved my arms and legs, it felt so good. He gave me a bag and I took out a white container. It had chines food in it. "Thank you! It's my favorite." I quickly opened it and took a fork, soon the wonderful taste filled my mouth. "I'm in heaven."

He chuckled and started eating his own food.

"If it doesn't bother you, why am I here?" I asked, not looking up because I was afraid. There was silence. I looked up and saw him playing with his food. He looked up and he held no emotion whatsoever.

"Look, Melanie. . . Do you really want to know?" I rolled my eyes because he called me Melanie, which is not my name.

"I mean, I deserve to know... I don't know why i'm here, what you're gonna do to me. Do you know how scared i am? Oh of course not, you're the one who fucking kidnapped me! And don't act all innocent because we all know you're the bad gu-"

"Your mother sold you." He snapped.

I stopped blabbing. "W-what? No you're lying. Y-you just don't want to tell me why i'm here..."

He stood up, "Look, I come from a really rich family. One that can give you everything that you wish for. I'm Daniel, and you my dear, are my princess. You want to know why? Because you're mother, Claire Reyes, sold you to me. You see my dear. One of my assistance went to your house to talk to your mother, we gave her $300 million dollars for you."

Then I remembered something.

~Flashback~

I rolled my eyes as I couldn't find my charger. "Mom!" I yelled out, throwing a shirt to the other side of the room. I looked behind my curtains. "Ugh, Mooooom!" I got up and walked to her room.

"Mom?" She wasn't here, then I heard voices in the living room.

I walked to the living room, but quickly backed up when I saw a man handing my mom a brief case, she opened it and gasped. I saw paper but I didn't know what it was. I saw her get up and wrap her arms around his neck. His hands wrapped around her waste, and they started to make out. I cringed and ran back to my room. Who was he though. As I walked back to my room, I remembered to took my charger with me when I went to Xavi's house. I checked my bag and sure enough it was there. 

~End of flashback~

"It was him. . . I remember. . " I whispered.

"You see my darling, what I say is true." He said taking another bite from his food.
