Sweet Vendetta | Barry Allen [2]

Chapter 8

Lana

I sat on the ground, my back leaning against the cold wall. I was sure all the blood on me had dried already. I looked down at my hands to see the rope tightly wrapped around them and even as I moved them slightly I could feel the bruises on my wrist. I moved from where I sat, trying to get comfortable but failed as I felt all the pain shoot through my body.

Shutting my eyes tightly I took a deep breath and gritted my teeth trying to lessen the pain I felt. It was now or never, I had to take my chance to escape now before it was too late. I kept my eyes on the only man that was here keeping watch on me. I turned around the room trying to see if there was anyone else but sure enough it was only one. I let out a breath feeling a little offended that they only had one guy on guard. He continued to look at me every chance he got making sure I was still sitting in my corner. I waited until he looked at me again and this time I smiled at him. I knew I only had to taunt him to get what I wanted. I knew I had to get him mad enough he would attack me again. And as soon as he was close enough I would take that as my opportunity to escape.

I sat straight leaning off the wall just enough. "So you're the babysitter while everyone else is out there having fun?" I chuckled

He continued to walk back and forth ignoring me.

"Aw come on if I'm going to be kept captive you could at least talk to me. It does get pretty lonely and i might just go out of my mind if I'm left alone with my thoughts" I say

Again he said nothing. He looked at me for just a second before scoffing and turning away. I could hear his light footsteps as he paced back and forth.

"You know when they find out I'm missing they are going to look for me and when they find me here tied up it's not going to go well for you" I say

I could tell I was slowly getting him annoyed by how his shoulders tensed.

"Just one question: would you like your death to be quick or long lasting? Better yet, would you like it to hurt?" I say staring at him as he stopped pacing

This time he laughed.

"What's so funny?" I asked him

"That you think someone will look for you" he says finally looking at me "Lana Snow the murderer. You've killed people for money, you've betrayed people who trusted you and you have only caused others trouble. What makes you think someone cares about you enough to come and help you?"

Okay that was true but AliPhil had to come for me, I hoped. Someone was bound to notice I was missing. Even Caitlin or Barry.

"The best of the best" the guy chuckles "you're nothing but a killer. And no one will want you. You are as tainted as the rest of us, if not more. Trust me there is a special place for you when you die right with the rest of us"
