"Put me down! What the hell do you think you're doing! We can't just leave her!" Chloe screams in hysterics.

"Chloe, Chloe!" Jason yells, finally getting the girl to stop screaming.

"We can't just go in there and try to take her back unprepared. That could lead in not only Beca's death, ours too. Do you want that?" He asked as she only shook her head.

"We're gonna do everything in our power to get Beca back but we need a plan. It might take a couple days, weeks even but we'll get her back, don't worry" Luke said walking up beside her.

"I don't want her getting hurt" she cried.

"That's the price we're going to have to pay, it was you and Jesse, or Beca." Theo said.

"It took you guys ages to find me. Luckily we know where he is now. The only issue is how we're gonna get Beca out without a whole war breaking out." Jesse said, cleaning up his face.

"We'll figure it out" Jason said.

"Now, what to do with you" Mason smirked as he walked around Beca.

His men had tied her to a chair so there was no risk of her trying to escape.

"Fuck you" Beca spat.

Mason just raised his hand and brought it down across her cheek.

"Don't talk to me like that" he hissed.

"What the fuck happened to you man, we use to be best buddies. Now look at us. I'm sorry Chloe didn't want you, I couldn't control that. Please Mason let's talk this out" Beca pleaded but he just ignored her.

"Get the whip" he commanded.

One of his men walked off before coming back with a whip. Mason smiled as he took it from the guy.

"Tie her so her back faces me" he commanded again.

Two of his men untied and retied Beca to the chair. Positioning her the way he wants. He raised the whip and brought it down hard onto Beca's back causing her to yell out in pain. He continued to do this until her back was covered in red welts and cuts.

"Mason please" she begged.

"You want to talk, okay let's talk" he said spinning the chair, almost knocking it over.

"You took everything from me" he said through gritted teeth.

"I never meant to, please understand that. I loved you like a brother. I wanted what was best for us. I never wanted to one up you in anything. I never wanted to take Chloe. Don't blame me for her choices please." Beca tried to reason.

"You loved me like a brother?" Mason asked, little taken back.

"Yes. I knew how your family treated you. I wanted to be there for you like they wouldn't be. I know you always wanted a supporting family. I tried to be that for you. I was crushed when I got the call that you killed yourself." Beca said, hanging her head out of exhaustion.

"I-I never knew that, why didn't you tell me that?" He asked.

"You know I'm bad with emotions and feelings. I didn't know how, I just tried to show it. Guess I didn't do to well at that did I eh?" She let out a small chuckle.

"I'm so sorry" he said.

"There's still time, to change. I can forgive you for this if you just try to change." She said, lifting her head to meet his eye.

"Untie her" he commanded and his men did.

Beca walked over to him and gently pulled him into a hug. He cried into her shoulder.
"I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry Beca" he cried as she held him.
