Chapter Fifty-Two

(Next update on Friday.!)

Elena's POV

All I see is darkness. I'm dead. Is this what it feels like to be in hell? After death is it really only darkness?

I yank my arms but whimper when the hard cold chain restricts my wrist.

I hear the sound of heels walking closer to me and I begin to panic, if I'm not dead I'm obviously going to die.

The sound of footsteps stop and something is ripped from my head, the light blinds me for a second and I blink repeatedly to adjust to it.

My heart is racing so fast that I actually think it might fall out of my chest.

"Aww, you're scared aren't you?" She says in a baby voice, crouching down in front of me. I slowly shake my head yes, the tears begin to fall from my eyes. I can't help it.. I have no idea what's going on and I don't think I have been more frightened in my life.

"Good." She smirks. Walking away towards a table that's across the room.

"I don't want to hurt you, Elena." She says. How does she know my name? She's looking around in some drawers until she found what she was looking for. "I just can't have you stealing things from me anymore." She shakes her head and walks over to me. Key in hand.

"Those chains look immensely uncomfortable, would you like them off?" She smiles at me. I nod again. What the hell does she mean that I'm stealing from her? I don't even know her! I just want to go home and be with my Elizabeth.. my beautiful Elizabeth. Will I ever see her again? A sadness overcomes me at the thought of never being with her again.

"Use your words!" She yells in my face, shocking me.

"Y-Yes," I stutter out. Why is she doing this to me? I begin to cry harder.

"Good girl." She praises me. I'm not a dog. All I want to do is go home! Why is this happening to me?

The chains fall and I grip my wrists in my hand due to the pain. "Alright now is there anything I can get you? Water? Some food?" She asks in a fake concerned voice. She is clearly bipolar if she is yelling at me one second and then asking me if I want anything... I cry more.

"I want to go home!" I cry out. She chuckles.

"Sorry, darling. That's not gonna happen anytime soon." She smiles and walks up the stairs and closes the door behind her, I hear a locking noise and I scream out, trying to let out the frustration and sadness out of me but it doesn't exactly work. I throw myself onto the old bed and cry into the mattress.

Zayn's POV

I walk out of Elena's bedroom and out into the living room. I didn't hear anything so Alex must've already left, I wonder why Alex even came over? That little slut needs to stay away from Elena.

"Elena?" I call out, I walk into the kitchen. She's not here. I walk outside, her car is still in the drive way. I decide to just call her phone as I walk towards Lizzie's room to see if she's maybe in there.

She doesn't answer her phone so I text her asking her where she is.

I sigh in relief when I see that Elena is calling me back, "Elena! Where are you? I was worried for a bit." I chuckled.

"I'm sorry Elena can't come to the phone right now, can I take a message?" A different females voice says in a fake tone on the other line.

"Who is this?" I ask them.

"A... friend?" It sounded more like a question. I'm getting suspicious at this point.

"Can you put Elena on the phone please? It's important." I tell her.

"She can't come to the phone she's a little... tied up." She laughs, "I'll tell her you called." She hangs up.
