He took her into his arms and went to the doctor. "Gunter, I need your help." Christoph said as he walked into the infirmary. "What happened?" "I don't know I found her like this." "What is her name?" "Chloe."
"Okay, place her on the bed." Christoph placed her on the bed. Gunter went to her. "Hello Chloe. Can you hear me?" He said as he shone a light in her eye. "Her eye is responding which is good. Now can you please leave us so I can run some tests." Christoph nodded and went outside.
An hour past before Gunter opened the door. "How is she? What happened?" Gunter sighed. "Christoph, we have known each other since we were kids and I know you are not the type of men who did this but I am asking you to make right what they did wrong."
"Just tell me already." "She is in shock, has four cracked ribs, her nose cracked, her air pipe is bruised, her throat is raw from screaming and there multiple counts of semen on her body." "She was raped?" "Yes, but nothing was found inside of her."
"I am going to kill who ever did this." "I know she was at the club and escaped and so on but why keep her alive? I am not saying you should kill her but you have killed others." "She reminds me of Abby."
There was a long silence. "Can I see Chloe?" "Yes, she is asleep and I had her dressed." Christoph gave a curt nod before entering. The swelling on her face had gone down a bit and her face cleaned from blood. "I am sorry. I will kill whoever did this. No woman deserves to be treated like this."
He left the room and went to his office. He logged into the security cameras. He reminded to then he took her to her room. He played it and watched. Three men went in after he had left. Once they were inside Christoph switched to the camera in her room. He saw them hit her, chock her, slap her, rape her and violate her more.
She tried fighting them which resulted in her getting slapped and chocked till she was unconscious. The men wore all black clothing and their face were hidden from the camera. Once they were done did they leave her and she crawled to the corner we found her in.
The men split up once they exited her room. Christoph tried to follow them but they knew the dead spots so he lost them and he knew if he asked each and every one of his men for a DNA sample that they would know that he knows and would run. He had to catch them somehow.
The next morning just before dawn Christoph went to Chloe's room. "Who is there?" She asked frightened. "It is me, Christoph." He replied switching on the light. "You aren't going to hurt me like my mother's boyfriend or like them?" She whispered.
"No, I am not. Whose them?" She did not answer. She just rocked back and forth on the bed, holding her knees to her chest and humming a song to herself. He slowly reached out and touched her on her shoulder. Her eye's shot to him. "Tristan Christoph, please don't touch me." She said softly. Christoph immediately retracted his hand. "How do you know my real name?" She didn't reply and continued rocking herself back and forth.
"Answer me!" He shouted but she ignored him. He shook her shoulders. "Answer me goddammit!" He screamed making Chloe jump and run to the bathroom but she couldn't because she still had the IV tube in her and Christoph grabbed her.
She screamed and her heart monitor sped up. "C-c-ca-can't b-b-brae-the." She said trying to breath. Christoph pushed her down on the bed. "Listen to my voice. Calm down. Relax. The fear is just in your head. Breathe. Breathe for me Chloe." He told her calming her down. She slowly took breaths and calmed down.
Once she was better he spoke to her again. "Rest I will be right here when you wake up, I am sorry I scared you." She nodded her head and laid down closing her eyes. "You're not a bad man Tristan." She said before falling asleep.
