Recap

I was feeling a little on edge, as though something was wrong. I decided it was about time I checked my phone. By the time I came across my phone, I was shocked to see
multiple missed calls and messages.

Recent

Every message made no sense, just plenty of nonsense and gibberish. Although, you could see panic through her cascade. I scrolled down far enough where things started to make sense. Something about Crow, but what stood out the most to me was one text in particular.

'He's back'

It was as if someone had wrapped their hands around my neck, slowly squeezing as I lose my breath. It couldn't be, right? Well wrong, as my eyes skimmed the device I finally realized why Theatra, out of everyone, was scared.

He was back, the monster that killed grandma, drove everyone around me away, and who stole my freedom. I could still feel the cold, heartless man brush his fingers against my skin, an obsessed crazed look in his eyes. As if I was an object, a thing to be owned.

Now hyperventilating, I drop to my knees.

"No" I whisper

"No no no NO NO NO NO" I began to scream, hoping this was just a dream, no a nightmare.

Why now, after I've found happiness, does he have to waltz his way back into my life.

Flashback

It had only been a couple of months of living with Ms.Susan. She tells me to call her grandma, but I stick with her first name as she's still new to me.

It was just like every other day, until the unexpected happened. Ms.Susan had found out that her grand kids survived the abduction and killing of their parents and them. Ms.Susan took them in with open arms. It was weird at first, the girl was a few years older then me, closer to Crows age but the boy was my age. 

I usually stuck with Crow but one day the grandson approached me. He was nice. He was a little odd at times, but isn't everyone. I didn't start to notice the extremely odd things until years later. We were teenagers but that didn't excuse what he did.

We were walking home one day from school, when we saw an injured bird on the sidewalk. He talked about what use is an injured bird, if they can't sing for you. He talked about its worth in the world, and that the best option was mercy. He then proceeded to snap the birds neck, leaving me in full shock. I excused myself saying I forgot something and told him to go home without me.

I quickly ran to the bar that Theatra, the older sister, worked at.

I told her everything. I just wanted to know if this was some sort of sick joke. What came next was frightening.

"Ever since our parents died, he's never been the same. To tell you the truth, we were forced to watch it all. They raped our mother, tortured our father, and gut the two for their organs. I was going to be sold, but the neighbors called in before they could get any further."

After that day, he began calling me by pet names, like little birdie, beautiful, sweetheart, but worst of all my little caged beast.

He became distant with the family and got involved in the sketchy parts of town. At one point he fully disappeared and I got closer with Theatra while Crow, also known as Jacob, the lost heir of some popular business company went back and toke his rightful place of CEO. Turning it into a secret rebel group against Blume.

Not long after, Theo came back, he was more aggressive, controlling and manipulative. He dragged me along to his gang, made me the queen. I was respected, stared at in glory, but most of all kept by his side, a statue, a trophy. I was no human to him anymore, just a thing to brag about, while I sit still and stay quiet.

End of flashback

Mumbling on the floor, the life in my eyes now gone.


Sorry for the wait, but hey at least you now know who that mysterious man is. Your care takers/grandma's biological grandson!!!
