Eden.

"You can't run from me baby girl"

His voice echoed through my head as if it was on a constant repeat. I didn't even know this man by his whole demeanor absolutely freighted me, but yet his face seemed to be crafted by God himself.

I tried to break away from the two men restraining me but they had death grips on my fragile arms.

My head dropped but a finger snuck under my chin lifting my head up ever so slowly.

My eyes soon met with the piercing green eyes. I shut my eyes to avoid the eyes practically staring into my soul.

"Now, I don't think you want to upset me baby girl. We have a long flight from here, and I need you to be on your best behavior. Now open your eyes up."

The sinister man's hands caressed my cheek sending chills down my body. I refuse open my eyes for the fear that when I do open them, this nightmare won't go away.

" You really don't like to listen do you. Now that something we can easily fix."

His hand moves from my cheek to the back of my neck. Pressing harder and harder by the second. My eyes fluttered open as the pain was becoming unbearable. This man was truly evil.

"See now that wasn't so hard was it . "

He forces my face to stay with a steady gaze.
How could a man that looks as though he was crafted by god himself, have such devilish ways.
"Now, like I said I'd love to stay and chat but we have a plan to catch"

My eyes widened at what he said, causing chills to pierce through my body.

This man winked at me and motioned something to the guards that still had death grips on my arms.

A cloth made it's way around my mouth and nose forcing me to breath in the substance that the cloth was drenched in

I really wanted to say something but I was too weak, the last thing I was able to hear my the faints screams  coming from my mother as my body went limp in the guards arms.

The darkness that once took over my body slowly become to fade back into reality. My head throbbed and my neck was incredibly sore.

I silently prayed that when I open my eyes that the previous events would just be a cruel nightmare, and I'd be home with my mother.

It took a while for my eyes to adjust to the light but once it did I was in for a rude awakening. My nightmare wasn't just a dream but instead my new reality.

I was indeed on a plane with my arms and legs strapped to the chair. I looked up and saw a different man watching my like a hawk. I tried pulling myself out of the chair, but it just caused more pain that I didn't need. I groaned a bit and watched the man sitting across from me whisper something into his earpiece.

A curtain on the other side of the plane opened up and there stood the devil himself, walking towards me.

"Thank you Jeffrey, for watching over Ms. Eden. You are greatly appreciated."

" Anytime Sir, it is truly my pleasure."

They both nodded and where I assume Jeffrey was sitting, the man quickly took his place. I looked at Jeffrey and our eyes met for a split second. I could've sworn that his eyes were filled with sorrow.

My head snapped towards the green-eyed man as his throat cleared causing me to jump ever so slightly.

" You don't speak much do you babygirl? "

Chills once raced through my body as I watched how amused the man became at the sight of me being uncomfortable. But , this also made my blood boil as anger took over the uncomfortable feeling.

" Oh well I'm sorry, I don't usually have to talk to strangers , who basically kidnap me. Taking me away from my mother and the only place that I've gotten to call home, so yeah I don't talking much. Oh, and one more thing don't you fucking call me babygirl."

The man seemed to be taken back a bit, but quickly recovered with a smirk creeping across his face.

"Oh how rude of me, I haven't even introduced my self. You can call me Harry, and no. I did not kidnap you. I like to think of it more as a bet that ended up benefiting me the most. You can blame your dear brothers for that one. They can be a little cocky don't you think? Oh, and I won't call you baby girl anymore. I think princess suit you way more."

The smirk on his face reappeared as I took in the little information that he gave me. My brother bet on me ? No, no, no they wouldn't do that.

"Okay Harry, if that's even your real name. What was this so called bet, and why would I blame my brothers ?"

" Eden my dear, you have so many questions that I just can't answer. You'll find out in due time. Until then, you might want to relax. We'll be landing soon, and it might just get a little bumping."

With that Harry shot me a wink standing up from his seat, and returning behind the curtain.

Leaving me in my thoughts, praying that my brothers didn't do anything stupid. I mean who knows if I can even trust Harry. He did kidnap me after all.

Blood is thicker than water. And my brother wouldn't do that.
