UNEDITED
MERCY'S POV
My eyes flickered open, a pain shot through my head and my neck ache badly. Hot blood was pouring down my neck. I watched around my surroundings and it seems like an uncompleted building. I raised my arms to touch my bleeding head but they got stuck, in that moment I realised both limbs were tied to the chair I was sitting on. The past events came rushing back in. I came here to meet with Linda and I got smacked on the head and blacked out. I struggled to free my hands from the tight ropes that threaten my swollen wrist. Then I heard footsteps making me freeze in the act.
"Hahaha!" Someone from behind laughed. I badly wanted to turn around but my neck was stiff and numb.
The figure appeared within my sight, "what are you doing here?" I was both surprised and glad to see him.
"Anyway come help me!" I whispered.
He shakes his head in denial and I felt as if the blood dripping had stop and the world had gone still around me,"how could you!" I seethed and wiggle vigorously to get out of the ropes but the excruciating pain shoot through my body making me stop dead.
I think I'm beginning to imagine things, the environment was depressing and its making me go crazy.
He can't say no to me!
He can't betray me like this, "help me please!" I winced in pain yet he remained quite with his big eyes watching me like a hawk.
"Why are you doing this? Where's that witch?" I yelled on top of my lungs although he was just few feet away from me.
The stiffness in my neck was making my head throb, "please release me!" I breathe out.
"You won't gain anything from this. She will stab you in the back like she did with me. I will forgive you and we could go back home and put all this behind us." I said, tears begun to cloud my vision due to the excruciating pain. Yet he stood his ground, glaring at me with an emotion I couldn't decipher.
"Don't just stand there help me before she comes back. You owe me alot! We are practically family. We took you in when you had no where to go. If you want I can give you half of what Linda is demanding." I coughed and spit out blood.
Oh this is not good!
I need to be able to leave here. I shouldn't have come here alone and no one knew where I was going except...
I look up at him with so much rage. This bastard! After everything we did for him. How could I be so stupid I should have know it was him from the beginning.
"Hahaha! Your sense don begin to dey work abi! (You are beginning to use that head of yours) He mocked.
"You betrayed my trust! I told you everything not knowing it was you who was blackmailing me!" I seethed angrily.
