Adriana was slapped awake by the iron hand of a lady that stood in front of her, scowling. Adriana immediately shook and trembled after being ripped from her chloroform induced sleep. The lady that stood before her leaned in close onto Adriana's now burning Indian skin. She smiled and whispered into her ear.

"What do you know about Jacob?" she questioned. Adriana sighed mentally. If only people knew that she was a mute.

"Why does everyone hurt her and only ask about Jacob? Was there something that her parents did not find out about Jacob. Was he in something untraceable even by the elite FBI?" she wanted to ask. The lady slapped her once more before turning on a bright yellow light bulb to reveal her features. She was a Caucasian women with golden locks flowing down her collar bones. She carried a thin frame with a small chest and hips. "I'm guessing she's about the same size I am. Possibly a bit thinner than a size 4?" Adriana spoke to herself in her mind. If only she could somehow express to this lady that she could not utter any words from her light brown lips. The lady once again stood before Adriana and decided to slap her once more for good times sake. Adriana grew restless and jostled around, loosening the grip of the duct tape on her skin and on the chair. "I will ask you again. What do you know about JACOB?!" she fussed and screamed. Adriana moved her lips to show the woman that no sound uttered from them and the woman decided to punch the poor girl's stomach in, twisting her intestines into an artificial knot. Adriana made an expression of extreme pain as tears streamed down her now bloodless cheeks. The woman took  another glance at the girl. "Oh you're the Frocello girl? The one those rich doctors adopted who's a mute? Oh you'd make a good profit on the black market." she began to mumble to herself as she walked in circles. 

Agents in black suits began to break down the walls of wherever they were and take the woman down, placing her in handcuffs. Jacob rushed to Adriana's rescue and used a blade to cut her loose from the tight grasp of the tape. She wanted to scream and shout and cry sweet tears of joy for her love rescued her from danger. "Elis, Marcus's now ex, seemed to have found you. She called me from an unknown number telling me that she had you in her hands. She planned to use you to her advantage to get to me by hurting you. I couldn't stand for that.!" he explained. Adriana looked around for her purse and things. Jacob looked at her with confusion. She acted out her needs, creating the image of a strap and then a box on her hips. Eventually Jacob began to understand what she meant. "OH your purse! I have it in the trunk of your car." he told as he held up her car black Ferrari keys. She smiled warmly and wrapped her arms around Jacob, pulling him closer to her. Her sniffles rang in his ears and looked down at her sparkling brown eyes. Before the tear began to fall, he whiped the corner of her eye and pressed her brown lips onto his pinks ones. Adriana's cheeks burned with passion as Jacob struggled to let her go for he did not want her to leave his sight. She looked down at the ground, her face just as flustered as a rose's red petals. Jacob then leaned down to her ear and whispered the most special words she could have ever heard in her 17 years of life.

I love you Adriana Frocello....
