DEVIL {Austin Mahone Love Story}

Chapter 8

Madison's POV

I did as Austin said and ran as fast as my achey, abused legs would carry me. I couldn't control my sobs that filled up the echoey warehouse and the tears that fled from my eyes.

It was dusty and ashy and made my airway clog up of dirt.

Just as I made it up to the exit of the warehouse, I felt a warm hand tug at my wrist. A gasp emitted from my lips as shock took over my body. The strength of the pull made me turn around and stumble a little.

A well built man I had met before stood in front of me, with a sympathetic half-smile on his face. A few tears fell again and Slade pulled me into his chest. I wrapped my arms around his torso and sobbed into his shirt.

"It's okay, you're okay." He cooed.

The fact that Slade cared enough for Austin to take care of me really meant a lot. I was in so much danger right this second- but I felt safe again.

"A-a-Austin" I spluttered. The adrenaline running through my veins made me stumble on my words and everything around me appeared dizzy and in slow motion.

"He needs help." I paused, "He's alone with him." I whispered, not wanting to say the name.

"We need to get you in the SUV okay?" He said calmly, disregarding my previous statement.

"But Austin-" My weak voice was interrupted.

"He's okay. Leo and Finn are with him. Come on. He wants you safe. You need to get out of here." I nodded slightly against his chest and his arms unraveled from me and the cold air replaced them.

"Hold onto my jacket and don't let go." He informed softly. I nodded, looking down. I took a fist full of his leather jacket and clung on tightly as he guided me out of the warehouse- guarding me away from Draydon's people who were looking for me.

When we got out into the dark winter night, we sprinted into the SUV and he opened up the door to the back seats.

"Lay low and stay hidden." He told me. Without saying another word, I kept my head down and sat below the seats- where the feet would normally go. I pulled my knees up to my chest and prayed that Austin would just come and stay with me. Slade kept his guard up the whole time.

Austin's POV

"She's hot" He taunted, "No wonder why you keep her around. I bet she's great in bed.." He trailed off. "I'd love to feel her pink lips wrapped around my dic-"

I hurled Dallas with all my power and strength, targeting right across his left jaw. A satisfied smirk crept across my face as I heard a crack, signaling that it was broken.

He groaned as his back collided with the old wooden table that managed to fall apart.

Images of how I walked in on him all over my girl only fueled my fury more.

I sneered as I picked him up by the top of his neck and just below his jaw, making him stand and crash into the wall. He breathed heavily as he recovered from the fall, our faces up close.

"You're fucking repulsive. She's mine." I spat.

A blaze of indignation burned furiously in his eyes as he took a swing at me.

I fell to floor and I was just about to get up when he kicked me in the stomach. I doubled over in pain as I watched Dallas pick up a wooden plank that had broken away from the table.

Just as he was about to throw it down, Finn came from behind and slammed him into the wall again; both of them throwing punches.

I spat blood out to the side of me and used the last of my energy to pull myself up.

"I was only halfway done with your girl Mahone" He chuckled.

Raising my eyebrows, I tried not to react as hot searing rage throbbed painfully at my temples.

Fuck it.

I charged towards him and ripped my gun out of my pocket. I slammed it into the side of his head as he shifted from the movement.

"And I'm just about done with you." I spat.

"You're not going to lay a single finger on her again. Do you understand?" He stared back at me with an icy stare. "I said DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!" I yelled, dropping my gun down and tightening my grip around his neck.

He gasped and gagged at the pressure and his face turned red as the rest of him turned blue. I was convinced he was taking his last breaths, until someone ripped me away from him.

"Leo get the fuck off me" I warned.

"You're gonna kill him? Just like that?" He questioned, as Draydon slid down the wall and onto the floor, gasping for oxygen with loud breathes.

"I say we torture the motherfucker." He planned.

My lips curled up into a smirk as I caught onto where he was going. I kicked his ribs and he let an excruciating plea flee his lips. I crouched down to his level.

"This Isn't the end. You're going to suffer." I whispered tauntingly.

I shot him in the arm, an attack that would leave him in agony for a while until I figure out just how I wanted to kill him.

Madison's POV

I flinched as I heard a gunshot which echoed throughout the woods.

I prayed to God that it wasn't Austin who was fired at, but telling by Slade demeanor, I knew it wasn't Austin.

I hear loud deep voices coming closer to the SUV and Slade jumped into the Drivers seat. A click of the car door sounding and I felt the cold breeze mix with the heater air inside the SUV.

Without a word, I felt myself get lifted onto someones lap, the warm arms never leaving me. I tucked my face into the crook of his neck, never once opening my eyes.

Just from the scent of the aftershave, I could tell it was Austin.

I can't explain it; but I already felt 100% more safer being here, in his arms.

I heard a few more people get in, probably Leo and Finn, before the doors were all shut and the car began driving off. Dull conversations were held between Slade, Leo and Finn, which only made their way through my ears as muffles. I couldn't bother to pay any attention.

I felt Austin's hold on me tighten a little as he readjusted me the slightest bit on his lap.

"Madison look at me." He whispered softly.

I ignored his comment and stayed still. I hoped that he'd think I may have fallen asleep.

"Look at me, Madison." He demanded, but still managed to have a soft tone. I shifted my head and looked into his eyes nervously.

"I'm not going to hurt you, okay?" He cooed. I nodded softly, my eyes pressed closed as his lips pressed against my forehead briefly.

"You're safe now baby." I tucked my head back into the crook of his neck again, enjoying the warmth and comfort.

"I won't let them touch you." He murmured. My eyes began to get heavy and it didn't take me long to fall into a deep slumber...

Austin's POV

I felt Madison's warm breath hit my neck as she snored softly.

The car came to a stop as we pulled up to our warehouse, and I kicked the door open before the keys were even taken out of ignition.

My grip on Madison tightened as I slid out of the leather seated vehicle. I held onto her like a bride, swinging my hip against the door making it shut. I continued on to the unlocked warehouse, due to the previous events, and headed straight up to my bedroom.

I gently lay Madison down underneath the warm covers and debated for a while whether to wake her up to change or to shower. I decided to leave her in peace, a sigh leaving my lips. I stroked the hair away from her perfect face.


She was too innocent to be this broken.
