Fate ~ Shawn Mendes

Chapter 23

"Lock the door."
I felt my legs become weak and my heart beat faster by those three words. I wanted to shout and scream at the top of my lungs but knew if i did I would pay the price.
With each step he took toward me his eyes grew darker as his smirk grew wider.
"Adam, please don't do this."
I whispered to him, scared that if I made too much noise he would hurt me.
"Shut up!" He said through gritted teeth. In one swift motion he had pushed me down on the bed and had his forearm on my throat, pinning me down harshly so I couldn't move.
"Let's see that scar I left for you."
His hand travelled down my leg and raised my dress and his finger ran over the scar from when he has cut me in the dressing room.
"You'll always have that." He said looking darkly up at me. "You see Clara, you'll always have me around. Forever."
"No i won't!" I shouted and thrashed my legs causing him to become unbalanced just enough for me to roll off the bed and head for the door.
I dramatically turned the knob and pushed and pulled the door but it wouldn't move.
"Stop her!" Adam yelled and I felt arms wrap around my waist and pull me back into the centre of the room. Nick had me at his mercy as he pushed me up against the wall and had his hands pinned at my shoulders. Nick suddenly brought his mouth to my neck and started to bite harshly. I screamed out in pain hoping for someone to hear me.
"Don't. Make. Another. Sound."
Through the pain on my neck and the water in my eyes I saw Adam to the left of me raising the knife slowly in front of me before slowly and gently rubbing it across my shoulder.
Nick continued to furiously bite at my neck and made his way to my lower chest, his hands started to creep up my waist causing me to shiver and squirm.
"My go." Adam pulled Nick off of me and started attacking the other side of my neck, harsher than nick, more angrier.
"Dude! I wasn't finished, you said I could-"
"I don't care! I just needed you to help me get her away from him, make her vulnerable and here she is, now leave!" Adam shouted holding and squeezing my neck forcing tears to pour out of my eyes.
Nick quickly went out slamming the door behind him and I was left alone. Alone with him.
His hands started to brush against my breasts and massage them lightly. I squeezed my eyes shut hoping this was all just a dream, but it wasn't, no matter how much I wished, it was real, this was happening.
He grabbed my shoulders and forced me down onto the bed as his body crept over the top of mine. One of his hands held both my arms up above my head against the bars of the headboard, that's when I heard the click.
He had handcuffed me to the headboard.
I cried louder and I early a smack across the cheek in doing so.
"What did I say?" He grabbed my throat again. "Huh? What did I fucking say!"
"Don't make a sound." I could only manage a whisper as his grip around my throat tightened by the second.
"Good girl." He released his hand and stared at my vulnerable self on the bed. Adam slowly made his way back a bit on the bed and lowered himself near my heat.
"No." I whimpered but was quickly cut off by Adam biting my inner thigh and I pulled on the restraints in pain.
Just as his hands started to disappear under the fabric of my dress a loud bang came from beside us as I turned to see Shawn breaking down the door. With a second he had man tackled Adam to the ground and was furiously punching him in the face, blood covered the blue satin sheets and curtains and Adam seemed lifeless on the floor as Shawn continued to throw his fists at his face.
Shawn slowly raised from the floor and wiped his hands on his jeans as he made his way to me on the bed.
"Did he hurt you? Are you okay? Please tell me he didn't do anything to you?" His eyes danced all over my body before coming back to my eyes as he placed a hand on my cheek. A crowd had now formed in the doorway and Charlie, the boy from earlier was shoving everyone away and closing the door.
"What the fuck happened?" Charlie said concerned as he started to fiddle with the bracelets round my hands attempting to free me.
"Clara, please, talk to me." Shawn begged as a tear strolled down his cheek.
I was about to reply when someone barged through the door, gasping at the sight that lay before him and questioning what was going on in here and the bloody man on the floor.
"Nick?" Shawn questioned. "Why are you here?"
My heart started beating faster. Why was nick acting like everything was ok.
"It's a party Shawn. I was invited." Nick said as he took a place behind Shawn and Charlie.
"Clara, what happened?" Shawn asked again.
At that moment I felt my wrists drop beside me as Charlie undid the lock and I instantly dig myself into Shawn's body for protection. Shawn changed the position so my head was now resting on his shoulder as his hand rubbed against my back. I raised my eyes and saw Nick with an undeniable smirk on his lips, he lowered his gaze to his pocket which I followed and he slowly revealed a knife. My eyes darted back up toward him and he held a finger to his lips making a 'sshh' imitation.
What was I going to do?
