Cruel Intentions

Chapter 44: Guest of honor

My eyes slowly opened up but everything was blurry and confusing. I heard a clock ticking above me, I lay in a bed I've never been in before. I manage to correct my eyesight until I finally realize what happened to me before I got here. I was kidnapped and placed in a car with men in suits. All I remember is seeing Matthew on the broken coffee table semi conscious. I remember my attempt of trying to choke one of the men but only for a needle to be penetrated into my arm. I sit up on the bed and realize I wasn't wearing the clothes I had on earlier.

I was changed into baggy and oversized clothes which also have holes and rips on them. I didn't know I was, I began to look around the room till I finally realized that I was in..Sebastian's room. My dead boyfriend's room. I had a dream like this once but I thought it would never happen. Everything was different and rearranged. His desk and special chair was gone along with his personal belongings. Its been a two years since he passed. My head began to spin again and I decided to lay back down. I was confused and traumatized at the same time. 

''You're finally awake..you've been out for two days.'' I stiffen at the voice that echoed throughout the room. I expected someone different or one of the men in suits but my brain totally crashed on me. I lifted my head slowly from the pillow and looked at who the voice was coming from. My vision suddenly went blurry until I could finally make out the face of the person. Right before me was...Elijah.

I stared at him in a fainted look. ''What are you doing here?''

I didn't know why he was here and how he know I'd be here. I was so confused everything seemed like a dream right at this moment. ''I've told you that we will see each other sooner or later but unfortunately I'm not the guest of honor.'' He replied with a smirk.

He must've been the one who has been sending me those photos and notes for the past month. How could I be so clueless? I kept thinking it was Matthew for half of the time. I knew that Elijah had his own evil and devilish ways.

''I brought you some tea for that headache of yours.'' He said, walking towards the bed and placing the cup of tea in my hands. He smiled at me as he took a seat on the couch. I looked down at the tea, it was a light brownish color. I wasn't stupid enough to try to drink it, for all I know it could be poison. I placed the cup of tea on the bedside table.

''You don't like tea?'' He said tilting his head to the side. He looked at me those sneaky eyes of his and smiled.

''So it was you all this time?'' I asked, giving him a mysterious look. He shook his head and chuckled. He rose up his chair and began pacing around the room. ''No..I can't take full credit for this but I was apart of the whole sheme. The sheme to get close to you and pursue you. But if only you listened to me..things wouldn't have to be this way.'' He stated.

I didn't know what was unfolding before me but I knew it wasn't a good thing. I was stuck in a room alone with Elijah, the one person I couldn't stand to be around. I watched him walk up to the radio set and place a CD inside it. Music to began to play, but then something came over me.

The song that was playing right now was the song Sebastian and I first danced to. All of emotion took over my body to the point I wasn't thinking correctly. I looked down at my fingers until I seen Elijah's hand reach out to me. I looked up and he smiled. ''Don't worry I don't bite.'' He said.

I rose up from the bed and grabbed his hand. He immediately pulled me close to his body. He placed his hands on my waist, which caused me to jolt. I nervously placed my hands on his shoulders. But he moved it to his neck. We began dancing around the room.

''I know alot about you Rebecca, more than you know yourself.'' He whispered in my ear. What could he possibly know? My deepest secrets and desires?
