Chain of Desires {COMPLETED}

Lost

In the morning, Chris woke up and went to almost every tower he knew about but left one. He asked every person near the towers if they saw her, he posted pictures of her, and also hung them. Everyday, they found new but tiny clues.

Afternoon, while Chris was resting, his phone rang, and of course, it was the unknown.

" Get the fuck out of our lives. "

" Oh I will, once I eliminate you. "

" Why are you doing this now? Why all of a sudden?"

" Because you barged in her life! You are selfish! And so were your parents!

" Don't you dare talk about them! "

" Oh I can! You know why? I MURDERED THEM! And soon you'll be reunited together. "

These words punched him. The murderer of his parents, Jessica's kidnapper, was talking to him. That explained why he felt a déjà vu; the fact that he actually sensed the same emotion, made everything clearer, the hiding and the voice.

Chris was hazed. He did not know how to proceed.

" Did you even think why innocent and great people like them, die? Well, they had the highest position in the business world and I hadn't. I thought, why not murder them? I should've killed you with them but I showed leniency towards you. "

Chris hung up the phone and bolted out to hunt the remaining tower, which is far from the state. It took hours and hours to get there.

" I hope she's in there..I bet he has his "body guards" around. "

After he got there, he saw an old, huge and abandoned spire.

" Here goes nothing. "

As Chris stepped in, a loud squeak was heard. He wasn't afraid, he knew he had to rescue Jessica, and fast. As he walked in, he saw rooms filled with computers and rare expensive technology.

" Must be rich. " scoffed Chris.

The staircase was endless and some of the steps were broken; the scent of death and candles were mixed together forming a bitter odor. Chris did not want to be there but he had to prevent the mysterious man into getting between him and Jessica.

" When are they going to find me? I feel irritated, neglected and forgotten..I feel..lost. " Jessica said to herself as she crawled up in a corner trying to figure out who this man was.

" I'm pretty sure it's not creepy Conor. Mike the Jock? Nope. My ex-boyfriend, Dave? Fuck no."

Richard called Chris, and asked him where he was.

" I can't talk now, I'm in a pillar far from New York. Tell Eva I'm going to find her soon. "

" Chris, Eva is alone. I will travel back to California to let the best detectives search for Jessica. "

" They're coming here to look for her? "

" Yes. I gotta go now, take care. "

Chris felt a slight of relief, he knew her dad was going to do the impossible to save his only daughter; but the question is: how?

Moments later, Chris was exploring the place, he didn't see anyone, but heard a faint sound.

" Could it be? Is she really here? "

He tried to follow the voice until he reached it.

" Jessica?? "

Silence.

He felt his guts churn, telling him to get out as if it was a trap; when Chris turned to run, a blast hit him and he crashed  on the floor.

It was a trap after all.

Chris was taken into nowhere; blindfolded and handcuffed tightly. He felt every nerve rage in him. He wanted to save her, he certainly did not want to fail. He wanted to show her how much he was willing to give up his life for her. He wanted to prove that he actually loved her for the first time. No man can love a woman in such a short time, but Chris did. 

After 5 hours of going off somewhere no one knows, Chris felt a landing.

" Where the fuck am I? "

Chris heard a familiar voice from a short distance, but couldn't recognize it.

Tough men were pushing him to walk, he tried to think of ways to get out, but he didn't know where he was. When Chris got in, he smelled an intolerable scent of rotten and damp.

" WHAT THE FUCK?! "

" Shut the fuck up, kid. Boss wants you here, and if you talk, you die. "

The men then dumped Chris in a small room, with no window, no chair, and no bed.

" Fucking hell. "

You know that feeling of ease, when you're sure someone is coming to see you and you wait, you wait for them and can't stand not seeing them, but then they take a long time to get there so you feel disturbance? Jessica was starting to lose hope until she heard a scream, not just any scream, Chris's scream.

" CHRIS?! "
