Chapter Twenty Four.

My head was pounding but the pain was slowly reseeding. "Ben?" I called, but there was no answer. I felt the bed and realized I wasn't in my bed. I looked around the room and I realized what happened and where I was. I shot out of bed and started looking for ways to get out. I was in a room that had a bed pushed to the far corner, a dresser, two doors, and a bookshelf. I checked the door closer to my bed and it revealed to be a bathroom, it had a bathtub and a shower. I went to the next door and tried to push it open but it was locked from the outside.

"Ben?" I called in my mind, there wasn't an immediate response and I sighed. I went back to the door and jiggled the door knob, it didn't budge and I looked around the room trying to see if there were any tools I could use to budge the door.

"'mith 'here are you" Ben's words were clipped, like hearing the bad end of a radio or losing the connection on your phone.

"Ben, oh thank God! I don't know where I am, except I'm in a room" I said to him, he didn't respond for a while and I began to pace when the door opened.

"My love, why are you pacing?" Clayton said, a shiver crept up my spine and I took a few steps back.

"I am not your love" I said, he made his face impassive as if it didn't matter.

"'pen your 'ind up to me" Ben said through the mind link, I opened up my mind so he could see everything I saw.

"You will grow to love me over time. Once you get that mutt out of your system you'll let me mark and mate you" Clayton responded, he stepped towards me and I took a step back.

"I have a mate, I am already marked. I will not lose all of that because you have an infatuation with me"I knew I should probably be nicer, I mean he could rape me at any time and I would be powerless to stop it. But I just wanted to get home and begin my family with Ben, was that too much to ask for?

"Does he even want you anymore?" Clayton asked me, my confidence faltered. Did he?

"Why can't I talk to my pack?" I said, avoiding the question. Clayton gave me an amused look and raised his eyebrow at me.

"Because we have a certain type of barrier set up to stop all types of mind link, it is a type of plant my scientists invented. You were always so curious, and there not your pack anymore" Clayton responded, he came towards me and cornered me. Pushing me against a wall he kissed me, I stood frozen and felt like I was going to puke. I bit his lip as hard as I could and drew blood.

"You little bitch!" he shouted and struck me, I fell onto the floor. Was it just me or was Clayton stronger than the last time he kidnapped me?

"When Ben finds you I hope he rips you to shreds" I said, he came towards me and I spit in his face. Pulling back his foot he went to kick me but I turned so it would hit my back instead of stomach. The pain was explosive and Clayton smiled at my misery and walked towards the door.

"I'll see you in the morning for breakfast" Clayton said, he left the bedroom and I stayed on the ground for a while. When I stood up there was a sharp pain and I cried out.

"I'm 'oing to 'et you out of there" Ben said, I felt like if I could just grow a resistance to this plant I would have a better connection with Ben.

"The plant they use stops them from mind linking too, when you come and rescue me it'll be easier because they will be disorganized" I told Ben, I pulled the covers around me tightly and closed my eyes.
