"Hold on! Your parents kicked you out?" Claire asks and I just nod.

"So where are you living now?" She asks.
"I stayed at Jake's apartment for a few days and then....." I trail off wiping my tears as sobs escape my lips.

"Then what?"
I narrated the rest of the story to her where I found out Jake sent an audio to Kate to plan the whole framing process which was actually a lie and I got upset and left the house. Then I was being followed by a strange white Mercedes Benz and two men came out and abducted me. Then I woke up and I was in Tigress' house.

Claire is still dazed with all that I've told her. She has a sympathetic look on right now.

"So you ran away from dead duck's house?" She asks and I nod chuckling slightly
"Dead duck?" I ask through chuckles as Claire laughs along.
"That's what she is"
"Can you help me report her? Jake is also there"
"Of course!"
"Thanks Claire" I reply and take a final shot of her hot chocolate drink.

"Right now, you need to rest" Claire tells me as she takes the cup from me and tucks me in.

"But....I need to ...." She cuts me off saying
"We would do that tomorrow"

"Is this your bedroom?" I ask
"Yes but don't worry! I'll sleep in my brother's room"
"No! I can't sleep in your room"
"Just keep quiet and oblige Nikki" Claire states quite exasperated.

I nod numbly and she turns the lights off after saying goodnight to me.

Jake POV

"Where is she?"Tigress yells at me as she continues to dig her heels into my bare back.

" I don't know"I say weakly as I try to endure the pain. I wish I could just stand up and  beat her up but that was impossible since I was chained.

Tigress sighs exasperatedly and I feel her withdraw her sharp heel from my back.

"How could you let this happen Damian? You were supposed to look after them especially her!"

Damian is silent as he listens to Tigress's scoldings. My back hurts a bit and my stomach hurts even more because I've been lying  on the bare floor with it for hours.

"We are in danger because of your carelessness! If she reports us to the police, its gonna be your entire fault Damian! And you and I will rot in jail together with our boss! So you better find her and bring her here before she opens her big mouth!!!" Tigress yells. Then I heard her heels click clack until I couldn't hear them anymore. She was gone.

I've already gone through torture with Tigress and I hope Damian doesn't add up to it. He bends down and stares hard into my eyes as if he is looking for a treasure in them. Then he removed the chains from my hands and told me to stand up. I obliged and stood up just looking at him. He paces back and forth for sometime before facing me again. His hands on his hips.

"Where is she?" He says with rage
"I already told you, I don't know!"
He stares at me for like hours before pinning me to the wall forcefully.

"You better tell me or I'll—" I cut him off saying"or you'll what? I have no idea where she is!"

Damian's green eyes are still dark and are fixated on my face.
"Would you just say it?" He yells at me and punches my stomach. I yelp as an agonizing  bolt of pain shoots through it.

I just chuckle and he is dazed.
"So you are going to kill me because that psychopath just scolded you? I thought you were supposed to spy on her! Not on us! Can't you see she is distracting you? She obviously has something up her sleeves and she is trying to hide it from you!" I say and Damian is in deep thoughts.
