That voice.
It was Jaime's. Oh my god Jaime is here! Is he going to save or is HE the bad guy? I'm so confused right now. I wanted to scream at him to help me out of these ropes so I can go back to my ordinary life.

After sometime I realized that Jaime is coming towards me. There's a knife on his hand. Oh God no he's going to kill me here and now. I didn't told mom that I loved her, I didn't hug my bestie goodbye and I'll never be able to see Kyle ever again. Unwanted tears fell from my eyes.

"Sshhh Bethany why are you crying? Here let me help you with that." And with that he used his knife to cut those ropes. Wow Jaime didn't want to kill me? I wanted to hug him for freeing me out of these ropes but then I remember how he wanted me to hate Kyle by giving me that fake letter. I looked away from him. So what if is going to save my life? He still betrayed his own brother.

"Bethany? What's wrong? Did I hurt you hm? Let me see those hands there's going to be a bad scar right there." Jaime points at my wrist where there is already a blueish bruise forming.
"Listen here Jaime I dont know if you are trying to help me or kill me, but either ways I don't like.. thought you should know that." I whisper that as my throat is still parched.

"Here first drink some water." Jaime hands me a water bottle and Aspirin for that killer pain all over my body.

"Now take me home Jaime I'm so done with this drama or games you are playing with me. I know your the one who kidnapped me and not you are rescuing me just to seem like a hero." I tell him rudely.

"Someone's bossy today." He rolls his eyes and continues "listen here Bethany, I didn't kidnap you and I'm only here to help you out of here and if for one second you think it was me who kidnapped you, I'd leave you here to rot without food and water." He says calmly.

I stay quiet and think. Well maybe Jaime might have betrayed me but maybe he can help me out of here. Once I'm out of here I won't ever cross paths with him that's for sure.

"Okay Jaime... I'm sorry for assuming that it was you.. now can we please go home?" I request him with pleading eyes.

"Sure let's go Beth." He grabs my hand and pulls me out of the chair.

We get in on his car and as soon as my head hits his car seat I again get absorbed in the darkness. Guess those were sleeping pills and not aspirin.

24 hours later...

Lights flooding in the room again. I gently open my eyes. My eyes are burning and I see everything blurry. Where am I? I think to myself.
When I look around, there are white furnitures everywhere and I'm lying in a queen sized off-white bed. Wow this looks like heaven. Am I dreaming or did I die already?

"Oh you are finally awake little one." A lady with a very chirpy voice is looking at me right now. "My name is Lillian and I'm master's personal assistant. You are at La-Villa now. He'll be here any minute to see you please get ready. Your clothes are in that closet, there's a spare toothbrush and all your necessities are in the bathroom." And this lady who's name is Lillian tells all this in one single breath.

"But why am I here? Why am I not at my own house and where is mom, Trisha, Kyle and everyone else?" I asked sounding confused.

"Sweetie you just got out of a deep slumber I think you should first take a shower and keep all those questions for breakfast okay?" She says gently.

I nod my head and she left the room for me to get dressed for breakfast.

I take a warm shower removing all the filth from my body and brushing my teeth.

I wear a jeans with a loose t-shirt, make a messy bun on my wet hair and put a little chapstick on my dried lips. I didn't even make an effort to look presentable at this pretty house.

As I go downstairs, i can smell freshly cooked Bacon's and pancakes. My stomach starts to grumble loudly.

"Someone's hungry eh?" I almost jumped and fell out of the stairs hearing that raspy voice of non other than Jaime's.

"What the hell Jaime?!? You scared me!" I half yelled.

"Sorry ma'lady. Will you join me for breakfast?" He says gently.

"Mmm maybe? I'm starving anyway." I grumble.

Me and Jaime sit for breakfast. I eat the juicy Bacon's and pancakes faster than he can start his meal.

"So Jaime.. now that I'm not hungry any more, care to explain what I'm doing at your house or should I say castle?" I raise my eyebrow and look around the gigantic room.

"Oh honey you'd rather not know the story." He tells me as he chews on his food.

"I deserve to know this. Tell me right now or I'm walking straight out of this house." I half scream at him.

"Ok ok! I'm telling!... It all started when you fell asleep in my car.."
