Chapter 18 {Not Edited}

Claire's POV~

I sat in the middle of the warehouse, rocking back and forth with my knees hugged to my chest, tears streaming down my cheeks in silence.

I had multiple bruises and cuts scattered all over me, my lip was bleeding, i'm pretty sure the top of my right eye is bleeding too.

Those cruel men went to get some dinner and left me all alone in the giant warehouse, right in the middle with only one light shining above my head.

I could be planning an escape right now but I am too scared, they could come back any moment. This is going to be my new life then, it's nothing new really. I got beat almost regularly for screwing something up. The only difference is that there are five of them and they are probably ten times stronger than him. I'll just have to live with it, I know he's not going to bother trying to find me, I bet he's happy right now, probably celebrating. I can imagine a huge grin on his face that i'm out of his life forever right now, I bet Madam Lilith is celebrating with him right now too.

"What the hell? You just smashed the window, dumbass! C'mon lets go before anyone see's us!" A very familiar voice yelled. It sounded a bit like...oh my gosh...Nick! He can save me!

I slowly stood up and jogged to where the voices were heard, I squinted my eyes, trying to see through the darkness. There was a window a little bit higher than my height with a hole right in the middle.

I looked around for something to reach up there, I jogged towards some boxed and climbed up and gripped onto the window sill. I leaned over a bit and saw Nick and his friends arguing.

"Nick!" I cried.

"What the hell? Claire, is that you? Where are you?" He called looking around, his friends did the same.

"Up h-Oi! She's trying to escape!" The men's voices yelled.

"Nick! Please help m-" I was saying but fell off and let out a scream.

"No please!" I sobbed as the men picked me up.

"Nick help!" I cried.

"Claire?! Claire! Claire..." His voice trailed off as we got more into the middle of the warehouse, they threw me to the ground.

"P-ple-" I cried, letting out a scream when on of the men kicked me in the ribs.

"That's it, Styles will be here soon, just kill her already and we can make him give us the money first." One man said, I shook my head.

"No, please!" I cried.

"Please!" I screamed, one man slapped me, another put my hands behind my back and tied them together with a rope.

"Please!" I sobbed, another man put a clothe over my mouth, I screamed into the cloth but it came out muffled, I kicked my feet around but they tied them too.

They all lifted me up and tied me to a chair in the middle of the room, I sobbed, this is it.

I shut my eyes as one of the men came over and placed a gun on my temple, it's all over now.

~Harry's POV~

I got out of the car and slammed the door shut. I grabbed the bag with the money and scoped the area, I walked towards the warehouse but stopped when I saw some kids yelling at each other.

"Hey!" I called, it's three in the morning, they shouldn't be out here. Their head snapped towards me, I walked even closer to them.

"What the hell are you kids doing out here, this isn't safe, go home." I ordered.
