Rebeccas POV
"He's my brother..."
My heart drops to my feet. Derrek shuts the door and I hear it lock. Daniel and Derrek are brothers? But Daniel told me he was an only child.
My tears are falling uncontrollably and I just sit against the wall holding my knees in my arms. I feel so betrayed. So lied to. Why would Daniel lie to me? I trusted him. How can you lie about having a brother?
I was just getting more and more angry until I head the front door slam shut downstairs. I stop crying and go completely silent, my breath coming out shaky and slow. I dont hear anything except heavy footsteos walking around.
They go quiet for about 10 more minutes then I hear them again. Now they are coming up the stairs. I rush to the closet and slide in quietly. Praying that he will walk past. But of course, I hear the door open. My breathing stops as I listen to him walk into the room silently. His footsteps stop and he stands there.
He is listening for me.
"Rebecca." his voice echos in the deathly quiet room.
I cant hold my breath anymore so I try to breath out quietly. Unfortunately for me, he turns and faces the closet immediately. Tears run down my face as I stop breathing again. Please dont find me. Please dont..
I scream loudly as he rushes towards the closet and grabs my ankle, pulling me out. I kick and punch, wailing around like a crazy person.
"NO! STOP! LET ME THE FUCK GO!" I yell out as he easily throws me over his shoulder.
He gets halfway down the stairs and almost loses balance from me, he makes a 'urgh' sound and next thing I know Im flying through the air. I slam against the ground and then into the wall at the bottom of the stairs. I lose my breath and struggle to breath in.
He stomps down the stairs, "Damnit Rebecca! You almost made me fall!"
When he is next to me he tells me to get up. But since I was just thrown down half a flight of stairs, I had a hard time. He grew impatient and grabbed my by my hair, dragging me towards a door.
An instant headache engulfs me, I began screaming again. The pain was so bad. He opens the door and walks down some stairs, still dragging me behind. My body slammed hard against every step. My body eventually became very faint.
You can only take so much pain.
When we get to the bottom he lets go of me and lets me fall to the hard cold floor. I lay there limp, I roll onto my side and my legs automatically curl towards me. I wrap my arms around myself, letting out silent sobs.
I hear a loud click and I look up to inspect what the sound was. I see Derrrk turning on a light above something that looks like a Dentist chair, mixed with a hospital bed. He walks over to me and picks me up bridal style.
"No..." I try to speak but it comes out a whisper.
He lays me onto the bed/chair thing and locks my wrists into cold metal cuffs that were bolted to the bed. He leaves my legs free and walks away. I lazily lift my head and see him pushing someone towards me in a wheelchair.
My vision is slightly blurred from my tears and intense headache, but I soon they come into focus I see him.
"Daniel." I say in a slightly louder than a whisper.
He is unconscious. Is he okay? I begin to panic. I feel absolutely vulnerable without Daniel.
"Wake up." Derreks deep voice echos as he slaps his hand down on Daniels shoulder.
Daniel jerks awake and he looks around the room. His face goes pale instantly and he starts yelling and trying to get out.
"Dan, you already know you cant get out of that." Derrek chuckles.
Daniel looks down, in a strange defeated way. My heart instantly breaks. He looks as vulnerable as me. I have no faith in our safety. We are damned for sure. Derrek walks over to the corner of the room and pick up a phone.
"Now." was all he said.
He set the phone down, then picked up a bandanna and tying it around his head. Making only his eyes visible. He turns back to us and looks directly at me. His eyes burning holes into mine.
"Please dont hurt her." Daniel pleads as Derrek makes his way towards me.
"That wouldnt make any sense. My job.. Is to hurt her." he says as a matter of factly.
"Derrek Ill do anything." Daniel pleads some more.
"Anything? How about going back and not leaving us. Not Leaving Me. You know how bad it got when you left..." Derrek look down. "Daniel I needed you. Dad needed you."
"Dad needed me to help him stay hidden! He need me to help him feel the guilt of his actions." Daniel fires back. "Dont you see what you are doing Derrek?! Youre being just like him!"
I honestly dont think that was the best thing to say, he should probably tone it down. And I was growing so confused. It wasnt until now I realized I dont know much about Daniel. I actually dont know him at all. The things he told me were all lies.I should of known to stay away from him when we first met. Why didnt I stay away..?
Daniels POV
When I awoke tied in that chair, I knew I was in some deep doodoo. I mean.. Ive been through some fucked up shit. But my fathers torture meathods, were on some next level shit. It takes a large group of doctors to help, that is if you make it out alive.
I would never wish this torture apon my greatest enemy, and I knew it was boiled into Derreks head. He was going to do some terrible things. I cant watch him do it to Rebecca. Shes so fragile, I need to save her. I can find a way. We arent going to die without me telling her, and showing her how much I love her.
