At this moment, the only thing I know is that I need to find him. Him. My chest swells with the abrupt thought but my mind snaps back to the task on hand. I have to get out of here. I spin around and sweep the small, enclosed room trying to find a way out.

Where am I?

I spot a door and sprint to it the fastest I can. I turn the handle and run through the exit but don't make it quite out the door.

Before I realize what's happening, his face is two inches from mine. He backs me up against the wall, slams the door shut, and turns the locks in one swift movement.

My eyes flutter closed as his large hands grip my waist and his fingers expertly find my belt loops, pulling me against him. His eyes rake up my body and stop at my lips. My breath quickens as he runs his thumb over my bottom lip. A thought in the back of my mind tells me to stop but my body can't say no to this thrilling feeling.

I instinctively lean into his navy pants and feel something push against me. Moaning, I move my hand from the doorknob to try and run it down his chest but he jerks away.

He murmurs a heavy "no" and continues to run his hands up and down the sides of my body. I feel cold; So cold that goosebumps are rising wherever his fingers are contacting my bare skin. He grabs my hands in just one of his and throws them over my head. I want to pull my arms from his grasp but his control is enticing me.

Every movement he makes towards me seems sweet, yet there is darkness in his features that I can't yet decipher.

The lights suddenly go off and my eyes instantly try to adjust to the blackness that surrounds every inch of me. I feel his hands slowly making their way up to my face, stopping at every small curve my delicate body has. Finally, he reaches his destination at the base of my neck. He is caressing it slowly and I let out a small moan.

But, the pleasure I'm feeling soon turns to pain. His hands grip my neck harder and harder. His nails dig into my skin, piercing me, and I feel blood start to seep out. He's pushing with so much force that I can barely breathe.

I'm yelling and pushing at him to stop, but no matter what I do, he won't let up. I'm too weak for his lean and muscular body. Everything around me goes fuzzy as I fade out of consciousness.
