Lennox POV

Rolling over underneath the heavy duvet of my new bed, I immediately scrunched my eyes as the morning sun flooded through the open drapes.
The pounding in my head was not helping my morning mood as a sigh escaped my lips.
Last night went too far, I thought with a giggle.

It's was nice to be able to let my hair down, and have a normal night. The first one in my life.

Eradicating the negative energy surrounding my thoughts this morning I decided it was time to get up.

Groaning, I threw myself out of bed before my hangover got the better of me, changed into the pair of high waisted leather jeans and black crop top which Mackenzie had given me last night. I was really starting to like this kind of look, but really anything was better than what they gave me.

Wondering the halls I finally found the kitchen where I came across James brewing a pot of coffee and preparing some food.
"Morning Nox" He said to me with a grin, testing out the nickname he decided to give me last night.
"Hey Jamie" I replied, according to Mack nicknames meant true friendship and I smiled at the memory. I had my first group of friends!!

"Do you want any coffee?" He asked me and that when I realised that I truly didn't know.
I'd never been given a choice before over anything.

I can't remember anything from my life before I was taken, I couldn't even remember what I like and disliked.

And that thought brought me back to the harsh reality.

I was nothing, I know nothing and I will always be nothing.
The thoughts swirled around my clouded head as my mood became somber and morbid.

Before I knew it tears were running down my flushed cheeks and James looked to me with a worried expression.

"I-I... I don't know" I replied shakily somewhat gasping for breath as the beginning of my panic attack hit.

I was nothing.
I would always be nothing.
My thoughts turned submissive as I remembered my days in the cell I called home, remembering the cruelty I had to endure. They took everything from me, even my ability to make simple decisions. For Alejandro and his men turned me into a hollow shell of the feisty and opinionated young girl I could vaguely remember growing up.

I was their doll to be toyed with.

Pretty girls were to be seen and not heard.

"Hey Nox it's okay, it's not to get upset over" he said with a reassuring smile trying to mask his concern as he watched my chest move erratically.

"I've never gotten to choose before... I-I've only ever had water and the drink Emily got for me last night... and the alcohol I tried that C-Chaos was drinking" the tears were really falling now as James sat me down of one of the stools near to the kitchen counter.

"I have no idea what I like... I don't know how to do anything James. I can't remember anything but sitting and looking pretty for them.
