The Beast Has Been Released (Book 2)

Chapter 17

I woke up to my head pounding away and the feeling on my neck felt very itchy. I don't remember much of anything, but then I started to get flashbacks of what happened. Michael was dressed as a doctor and pushed me out the window, I landed on the ground.

Reyes and the rest of his gang was there, I punch Michael in the face and then I got into a fight with Reyes and he knocked me out with a needle.

After, the flashback, I looked around the room that I was in, it had no windows, just plain white walls, and the bed I was on was hard and lumpy and had two dressers. I looked over at a clock that was on the nightstand. "8:00pm. I was out for that long?" I muttered quietly to myself. 

I slowly get out of the hard bed and walk up to the door. I look down to see what I was wearing. I was wearing a black shirt that was half my size. I pressed my ear up to the door to see if I could hear anything, but it was deadly quiet. My hand reaches for the doorknob and I was surprised it was unlocked. 

I walked out, the floor creaking underneath my feet making me cringe. I slowly walked down the stairs, as I take in my surroundings, I've noticed that this house looked very old and different from what Reyes used to live in, the wallpaper is peeling off the walls. Dust and spider webs laid in a thick layer on everything. 

As, quite as I could, I step down to the last step and started my escape. I walked into a room that looked like a living room. The living room had furniture covered up in plastic material and a door. Here's my chance to get back home to my baby. I walked so close to the door and was about to open it when a voice stopped me. 

"My, my, my leaving me already?" I slowly turned around to see him holding Felicity. Tears formed in my eyes. "Please, Reyes, don't hurt her. Don't hurt my princess-" 

"She's mine too!" Reyes growled with the look of hurt in his eyes. I flinched. "Your crazy if you ever think I would hurt her." 

"Then, maybe, I am crazy." I spat. "Give her to me now, Reyes and let us go." He shook his head and put Felicity on the floor. "No, you belong to me and me only." He takes a step closer to me as I take one step back. "You left me to rot in a cell. You ran away from me and hid my child from me. What makes you think I'm going to let you get away from me this time?" His eyes darkened as he had me pinned against the wall. 

I quivered in fear. "I'm sorry-" 

He punched the wall by my head, causing me to squeal and flinch away. "Don't! Don't lie to me. You've of all people should know I hate liars." Then it was like something snapped in him like a thought just ran through his mind. He smirked wickedly. "You know what? I haven't made you fully mine yet. We haven't gotten married. Speaking about marrying. Darling, where the ring?" My body just turned into ice, my face going pale. "I-I lost it at my old house." I closed my eye preparing for the worse, but it never came. 

I can't tell him that I was already married. He would have my head for real this time. I re-opened my eyes and notice that his back was turned. His hand clenched and unclenched his fist. "Then we will go and get it." He said lowly. "No! I-I mean can't you just make another one?"

He turned and punched the wall by my head again, his eyebrows raised. "No, cant." My brows furrowed into confusion. "Why not?" I asked, my voice weak. "Because it was my mother before she passed." My mouth formed into an 'o' shape. 

"I-I'm sorry, Reyes-" He grabbed my arm. "Somehow I really don't think you are." He squeezed my arm tight. "Ow! You're hurting me!"  He loosened his grip.

Felicity started to cry, causing both of us to look. I ripped my arm out of his grip and pushed Reyes out of my way. "What's wrong, baby girl?" I checked in her diaper and notice that she needed a change. I turned to look at Reyes with my blue-ish, green eyes. "Reyes, we need to go out and get stuff for her," I told him. "Don't even bother," I looked at him confused. "Because I already have everything." He went to another room.
