Lila's pov

Once peter and I got to the pent house I sighed, "everyone is in there waiting for us... you promise you won't leave me?" He cupped my cheek, "I'll never leave you." I nodded once." Justin stood up, "Lila, are you okay? What's going on?" Dad sighed and grabbed Justin's shoulder, "you needed to calm down and hear what she has to say." Mom rushed over to me, "why did you have us rush here? What's wrong?" I gave her a soft smile, "you're going to want to sit down."

Dad gave me a soft nod, "are you sure about this?" Violet grabbed my hand, "you don't have to if you aren't ready." I nodded, "we all knew we were going to have to tell them eventually." Liz and Steve both looked at me sadly. Maria snuggled into Cole's side obviously not wanting to re-live what happened.

I ran my hands over my legs a few times, "about two years ago Maria, Violet and I were at the park by the library. Marz wanted to go and look at the ducks so Violet took her while I decided to go run into the library and grab a few books." I felt my throat go dry, "what I didn't know was someone had been fallowing us. Waiting for Vi or I to leave and wander off." Maria flinched. I sighed, "when I did a man fallowed me... he cornered me in part of the library where no one was. I-I tried to get away but he kicked me to the ground and chocked me so I couldn't scream..." I blinked away the tears, "he rapped me. He saw my marks... and called me terrible names... he told me lies..." I grabbed my arm, "he ended up kidnapping me... I was with him for 3 days, 7 hours and 25 minutes... he rapped me over and over and over... he wanted me to suffer because his soulmates had been taken by the curse and I-I had no right to find mine since he lost his... he had no idea who I was. He had a list of all the women with multiple soulmates and was planning on kidnapping them all. He wanted us to suffer... he wanted our soulmates to feel the pain he had felt when his were ripped away from him... he was going to kill me when dad, steve and Tony showed up..." mom had tears running down her face, "oh my baby."

Justin ran a hand over his face, "Damnit! That son of a bitch. Please tell me you cut his dick off." Cole had Maria's ears covered, "Bro, Don't say that stuff in front of Maria or my sisters." Dad rested his elbows on his knees, "he got what he deserved." Mom raised an eyebrow, "what did you do?" Dad looked up at her, "exactly what I said I would do if anyone ever hurt my family. He hurt my baby and now he's rotting in hell. That's all that matters." I shifted in my chair, "it was pretty brutal." Everyone looked at me. I shrugged, "It was." Quil ran his hand over his leg, "he hurt you. He deserves far worse then brutal." Justin nodded, "why didn't you tell us earlier?" I looked down and shrugged, "b-because I shouldn't have left Violet and Marz... it was my fault." Justin shook his head, "no it was not. That creep shouldn't have been fallowing you in the first place. He is the one in the wrong not you. None of that was your fault. Lila, you can't blame yourself for someone else's mistakes or wrong doings. You did nothing wrong." I looked at him sadly, "I-I didn't fight hard enough." Maria huffed, "yes you did. You're here, aren't you? Let's not forget that you saved Violet and I and all those other girls."

Dad ran a hand over his face, "Maria, please." Maria huffed, "she saved us because she refused to give him information. Lila, you are a survivor and a fighter. You did everything you could to get away from him without giving up any information about us... you chose to save us over yourself." I sighed, "Maria, I would never let him near you. You're my sister." Violet sighed and grabbed my hand. I smiled at my sister, "I'm okay." Maria gave me a sad look. I nodded, "I promise." Justin and Quill looked like they wanted to murder someone. I sighed, "i should of told you all earlier... I just didn't know how to bring it up." Mom shook her head and hugged me.

Cole looked at me and I mean really looked at me and gave me a straight faced look, "it wasn't your fault. You know that right?" I gave a weak smile, "I know. It doesn't stop the fact that I'm embarrassed about it happening... or the fact that the nightmares make it hard to sleep... and I on hard days I can't fight my own brain on all the things he said being lies... I can't stop what happened-." I shivered, "I can't take back what he did to me but I can move forward... we all can." Dad, Elizabeth and Steve all looked at each other.
