A Fighter Not A Lover

CHAPTER 22: Not Now!

MACI

After over hearing the plans Lee, my father and this Arthur guy had for me, I knew I had to try and do something to escape.

Unfortunately, every attempt I made always ended up badly and for the past few days I have tried to keep myself from thinking about tonight. 

I refuse to let myself be sold to some sick rich bastard that wants to use me as nothing more than just his pleasure toy. Something he could treat like shit. 

Tonight, I was gonna make sure I made one final attempt to escape. Even if it meant I would die trying at least I would be able to say I tried and didn't go down without a fight.

Right as I finish putting my earrings in my ears, the door opens up and in walks Lee.

I glare at him through the mirror with also a look of disgust on my face.

"You clean up nice." He compliments.

"Yeah well, you look like shit." I tell him.

"Tsk tsk tsk. Feisty tonight are we?" He smirks.

"Just tell me why you did this?" I asked while I turned to face him.

"Simple. You were a spoiled bitch that got everything that you were clearly so ungrateful for. Everyday you would always go on about what your dad got you and then bitch about the fact he didn't spend time with you and all that mushy bullshit, instead of being grateful for what all you were given. It was annoying as hell. Then one day I got an offer from your dad and I suddenly became business partners with both your dad and Arthur Benjamin. The one and only well respected and known mafia boss." He finishes with so much ease as if nothing he just told me was disturbing. 

"You're disgusting." I tell him.

"Yes well, I have more money than I know what to do with, so no complaints." He smiles.

"You fucking pig." I tell him as I walk towards him quickly and try to punch him but he stops my hand by grabbing my wrist.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you because I don't care about what your father and Arthur says, I will not hesitate in damaging their precious little gem." He tells me with a grin. "Now finish up and meet me out in the hallway here in ten minutes." He orders me before leaving and closing the door behind him. 

I walk over towards the bed and sit down as I try and put my heels on and stop after putting on one shoe when I suddenly begin to cry. 

"How did this happen to me? Why is this happening to me? I finally found someone I love and I won't be able to see them again. Why couldn't I have had a father that loved me and would do anything to protect me?" I begin sobbing while trying to not cry too loud to where Lee would hear me and come back in. 

I then get up and walk over towards the vanity mirror and grab a tissue and begin wiping my tears and fixing my makeup so that I don't mess it up. 

While trying to fix my mascara, I see what looks like Henry coming from out of the bathroom through the mirror. 

I close my eyes and begin telling myself that it isn't real. He isn't really there. Although once I said that, I felt hands gently caressing my arms up and down and then turn me around. 

When I opened my eyes, I started to cry again as I saw it really was Henry. 

"Hey beautiful." He smiles. 

"Oh my god." I reply and begin throwing my arms around his neck as I start kissing him on his soft lips that I have missed so much. 

"I've missed you so much." He says against my lips. 

"I missed you too. Oh my god, you really are here. You really came for me." I tell him. 

"Of course." He replies as he places a hand on the side of my face and gently begins rubbing the side of my cheek with his thumb while looking into my eyes. 

Right as it looked like he was about to say something, we heard a knock on the door and I looked at Henry scared. 

He then places his finger against his lips to indicate for me to be quiet. 

"You have five more minutes." Lee says on the other side of the closed door. 

"Alright." I manage to force out making it sound believable that nothing's wrong. 

I look back at Henry and he then holds my head with his hands and looks back into my eyes. 

"I love you and right now, I need for you to trust me." He tells me. 

"What are you talking about?" I asked him confused. 

Then before I knew it, he gently placed a kiss onto my lips and then I see him pull out two guns and hands me one of them then tells me to follow him while he quickly turns around and quickly opens up the door. I hear gunshots going off from downstairs and now see Henry shooting at Lee and the men that are there. 

We begin to have a shootout as we made our way slowly out the door and I have never shot a gun before but somehow, I was able to shoot and kill one of the guys who tried to do something to me the first day I was brought here. 

Then we continue to shoot although we don't see where Lee has gone off to and as I'm still close to Henry, I feel somebody yank me back hard by grabbing my hair. 

"Ah!!" I yell. 

"Let her go!" Henry immediately turns around and points the gun at Lee. 

"Fuck you!" And that was it. I had had enough. 

I quickly elbowed him hard in the stomach and then took off my heel and turned around and jammed the entire long heel right into Lee's eye causing him to try and rip out the heel as he screams in pain and then stumbles back a little until he ends up falling over the railing and landing on the first floor. 

I turn to look back at Henry and he just smiles at me before he grabs my hand and we begin heading downstairs. 

As soon as we get downstairs, Henry peeks his head around the corner and then counts to three before turning the corner entirely and then that's when I heard the loudest gunshot throughout the entire night and then saw the most horrific thing in my life......It was Henry dropping to the ground and holding onto his side as blood began to seep through his fingers.

I drop to my knees and start cradling his head on my lap as he looks into my eyes and smiles. 

"It's gonna be okay. I promise." He tells me and I begin to cry even more. 

I can't lose him. Not now. No when I finally got him back. 

"Please." I tell him as I give him a kiss. "Please don't leave me. I love you." I tell him as I place a couple of more kisses on his lips as I see him starting to close his eyes and start crying out loud and hard. 

Then the next thing I see is the front door busting open as a lot of FBI agents come running into the house, yelling out and making some arrests after having to shoot some people.
