Little Black Dress

Chapter 12

My eyes flutter open but close it again when the blinding light struck me. I tried to move my hands but it won’t move. That’s when I know something is wrong. I was tied into a chair, my wrist and ankles were chained on it.

“Oh look the princess is awake!” The too familiar voice shriek. Mia appeared looking all smug and vile.

“Why am I tied up? Where’s Karlo?” I ask frantically. What was happening? I tried to recall everything, but I could remember was Karlo and Chace bustling inside the closet room.

“See, that’s the problem…Our plan failed because of them, and because of that we may or we may not executed them” She said to me like she’s talking to a baby.

“W-what…e-excute who?”

“Hmmm. Karlo or Chace, Chace or Karlo? Uhmm I think....both” She said rhetorically and my heart drops.

“You locked me up? W…why? Mason? Where is he?” By now, tears were spilling off my eyes.

“Mason? Oh… deary!! Someone’s calling for you” Mason step out of the shadow. A gasp escapes on my now parted lips as I stare at him. He’s hair was unruly and he’s face was beaten to black and blue. He was also tied up around his hands.

“Mason?” I barely whisperd.

“El…i.im sorry… I couldn’t save you” he said.

“Enough with the drama, now for the finale… It’s a pleasure for having here with us Elizabeth, but our job is done. Mendes!” She called out for someone.

“S…stop Mia! Please…please d…don’t” Mason was writhing in pain in agony. What was  happening? But when a bulky guy appeared with a gun in his hand, I feared everything.

He pointed the gun at me and I close my eyes. This is it. I heard the gunshot but found a heavy body drops at me sending me sprawled over the now broken chair. I opened my eyes and found a body weight on top of me. My body runs cold when I noticed Mason drenched in blood.

No!No!No! My subconscious screamed.

“M…Mason” I sob as I tried to wake him up. “Wake up please…M..mason”

His eyes fluttered open and his last words made my heart stop.

“Happy April Fool’s!”

A/N: Hi guys!Sorry sorry ur internet connection was cut longer than I thought. So I am truly sorry for that. I hope this one would make it up for my previous lost. And this is the real chapter :)

My body was sore. Too sore for my liking. It feels as if a one thousand pounds elephant step on my entirety. Pigments of the last scene escaped on my now confused mind. I don’t know if my brain was just playing tricks with my mind or those scenes were real.

I just couldn’t grasp the fact that Mason cares, not that he truly does. But the way he acted even in my unconscious state brought warmth inside. That feeling was kind of alien to his entirety and to me.

“What are you doing here?” I heard someone say. When no one answered, that voice speaks again.

“You need to get out of here, bro” The voice said again rather harshly. Footsteps could be heard as if nearing in me but was immediately halted in a stop as another footsteps came.
