Chapter 2:

I awoke in an unfamiliar bedroom. The bright red walls and the soft blankets had no similarities to me and I couldn't remember how I got here. Did I drink that much?

I pulled myself from under the welcoming covers and pressed my back against the wall. My thoughts ran back to my dad. He should be waking up about now. He is going to call for me and I'm not there to fulfill his duties he has for me today. I'm positive he will find me and when he does I'm going to hate the punishment. I will probably end up in the hospital. I heard a door creak open and a man walked in about two years older than me. I met his eyes and I had flashbacks of last night. I remembered the two guys, the mysterious man who made the men back away, us dancing, and then him giving me a shot and me blacking out. I gasp and looked at the man. I pressed myself against the bed frame as far as it would let me. The mans face flashed with regret. "Who are you?" I asked with my voice shaking. "I told you last night love, but my names Hayden." He said with a smile. "I'm sorry, but I highly doubt you were the one to get drugged. No. It was me!" I said back with my voice rising. I was shocked by the confidence behind my voice, but pushed the shock away and masked it with an angry face. He walked towards me and pulled me out of the bed by my arm and pressed me up against the wall. My arms were above my head as my chest was pressed against his. "Do NOT talk to me like that! You are mine and I attend to keep you so do not make me angry!" He yelled at me and I flinched away as pictures of my dad flashed through my mind. I remembered all the times he hit me or the times he would have me in this same position. "Please don't hurt me." I whispered as I tried to cower away. He released his hands and pulled me into him, hugging me. I was stiff. I remember how my dad used to apologize just to let my guard down just to break me in the end. I felt tears prick my eyes as I tried to push them away, but it was no use, one had already slide down my cheek.

He pulled me away an wiped my cheek with his thumb, but not without me flinching. "Ivy. I would never in a million years ever dream of hurting you in my right state of mind. I'm sorry about what happened before...... I tend to get angry very easily. Please just don't try my patience love. I will explain everything to you when the time comes." He said as I felt more tears pour over. I felt this pull towards Hayden, but I was always told that no one would want me. That's why I never ran away before. What I don't understand is why I am still at his house? I should be running as far away as I can. I shouldn't be here any longer. I have to go. Wait! How did he know my name? "How do you know my name?" I asked confused "And why would you want me?" I pulled away from him, but he grabbed my arms in his steel grip. "I know your name because of certain reasons. I guess I am going to have to tell you sooner than later. It is sooner than I wanted to, but I will tell you everything you need to know tomorrow, and why wouldn't I want you?" he questioned. "Because that's what he---" I quickly cut myself off. He can't know about my dad. No one can. My father swore that if I ever told anyone, he would kill me in the worst way I could ever imagine. I never want to test that theory either. "Who is he!" Hayden asked very upset. You could see his cheeks getting red from anger. "N-no one." I say horribly trying to cover up my mistake. "Tell me who!" he said raising his voice. I flinched again.


I hate that I have no control for when I flinch or get scared. I feel like a little weak girl that no one will ever want. Just like he said. Its true. Everything he said. No one will ever want me. I felt a tear slide down my cheek as Hayden picked me up bridal style. He softly sat on the bed with me in his lap. "Ivy, please tell me. I can protect you from anything. I promise. You don't know things about me that can protect you and be your worst nightmare at the same time. I need to know who he is so I can stop him from ever getting to you. Ivy, please tell me?" He pleaded kissing my temple. "Can I tell you tomorrow after you tell me what you have to tell me?" I whispered. "I will feel more comfortable. I don't know you that well and I don't like to go around sharing my life to anyone." He nodded and gave me a smile and tucked my head under his chin. "I understand you completely love. You can trust me with anything. I just want you to know that. Now go to sleep so you can get some more energy. I'm sure you are quite tired. You've had a wound up morning." He said as he rocked back and forth. I nodded as I felt my eyelids start to feel heavy. My last thought was one thing.

"Can I trust Hayden enough with my secret?"
