PROLOGUE

I slowly opened my eyes. I could feel a sharp pain coming from the back of my head, strains of dry blood evident on my torn clothes- he hit me again. The events before my blacking out started to come to play in my head again. He was forcing me into the black minivan and as always I was refusing to corporate. All I remember was him reaching for a steel pipe and lifting it up to hit me. Ouch! The spot where he hit me started to sting again at the memory of the pain. I fully take in my surroundings.
I was tied down to the seat because of my many attempts to escape. "You're awake my queen," he said, with his hand reaching out to touch the side of my face. I winced at his rough touch. "Do not refuse me you fucking bitch." He shouted so loud it filled the whole car. Muffled sounds came out from my mouth. I struggled in my restraints but all was in vain. He pulled down the sock that he had used to muffle my mouth and he claimed my lips so violently. It was no true love's kiss, it was a kiss laced with poison, with hate and it was pure evil. How did the love of my life turn to be this gruesome monster, this murderer and my kidnapper? My thoughts were racing all over I didn't realise that I had two stray tears running down my cheeks. He broke the kiss and I stared at him with so much hate as I spit on his face. "Oh you're going to regret that Ally." With that, he landed a heavy punch on my cheek.

I could feel the skin on my skin break open with the impact of his knuckles with my jaw. I lowered my head taking in the impact of his punch on my already weak body. I spat out some blood as I looked slowly looked up to him. "Allyson Ryland! You're fucking mine you understand! Mine and nothing that you're going to say or do will ever change that. You fucking hear me you piece of shit!" I just reclined back in the seat of the car and closed my eyes hoping that this nightmare would come to an end. My nightmare ,Luka Kepley

I woke up to the sound of my rumbling tummy, I had actually forgotten the last time I ate. Luka never feeds anymore. It's a part of my "punishment" as he calls it and my failed attempts to freedom have earned me more and more of his "punishments" of late. Ever since he mentioned that he was going to take me to Tennessee to keep me, hostage, there before his neighbours started to suspect that he had kidnapped me from the hospital to torture me in his apartment, I had not been myself. I knew he was going to kill me and it was only a matter of time. Once again the rumbling of my tummy broke me from the trance that I had forced myself to enter to numb the pain. "Luka I'm hungry," I said in a frail voice. "You'll eat when we get there" he barked.

I probably could not survive all the way to Tennessee since we were coming all the way from Philadelphia. I had to make a plan and make one real fast. I looked out of the window and I noticed that the sun was about to set, I used to love spring, the flowers and the grass were coming back to play with us and the snow had started to melt but not this spring. Not ever since Luka took away my parents from me and probably my sister, Alex too, oh Alex I started to cry thinking of her. All could remember was her, attached to many machines and me laying on the bed next to her. I had to act fast and stop this crying. I pleaded with Luka "Luka please, I don't think I have the strength to get to Tennessee my love just a quick bite." And with that, I could see that I was penetrating through to Luka's soft side. Just as I thought I was getting there he snapped back to my possessive tormentor. "No, you've been a naughty, naughty princess". "Oh come on Luka, please, I'll make a deal with you. I'll blow you all the way to Tennessee." And just like that, I had penetrated through him once more- perverted son of bitch. He quickly untied me. I leaned over to the back of the van I took out slices of bread and greedily devoured them. I didn't care if I looked like a pig I had to eat because I had a gut feeling that something big was going to happen. "that's enough" as he forcefully yanks on my hair "now blow you fucking whore" I straighten up and leaned over to his seat. I took a good look at my surroundings, the sun was about to set and there weren't any cars moving in the same direction. I made a silent prayer to God in heaven- lord please let this work. I leaned over to where Luka was sitting. I avoided eye forms of eye contacted with him as I prepared to lower my head towards his groin. He was already in the moment, his perverted thoughts had already overtaken him- now. I moved the stirring wheel to the opposite side of that Luka was using, it took him a minute to figure out what was going. I had already taken over the stirring wheel. He tried to take back control, but not today Luka- Today is the day I earn my freedom from you and nothing is going to stand in my way. The car veered off the road as Luka was trying with all his might to take back control of the car. " Are you trying to get me killed you fucking bitch" he yelled at this point I didn't care anymore. Seeing that I wasn't responding to anything he was saying, he gave me a head butt pushing me away from the wheel. I crooked smile was plastered all over his face but I knew that I had won this. The car started toppling over and over again, he had released it too soon and the car was plunging into a sea of trees. Kill him a thought ran into my mind. Adrenaline had rushed to my head I had to do it, for my freedom, my sanity and for my life. Took his seat belt and wrapped around his throat as he was pulling on my hair. I had temporarily become numb due to all the adrenaline running through my vein. I had got him, finally, I had got him. The car continued to barrel roll through the trees and I knew that if I wasn't going to get out of this car , I too, might die. I opened the door of the tumbling car I was tossed out of the car and tumbled through on the rough forest floor. I temporarily blacked out as my head hit a rock with a great impact. No Ally, not now ,this is not the time to be weak

Slowly everything slowly came into play. I winced. There's a sharp pain coming from my abdomen. I got up clenching to my side. I looked at the carnage that had hit a tree. Is he? Dead? I approached the car and the damage was intense. The entire top had been discarded, and Luka, his bodied was twisted. A big chunk of the driver's door had slightly pierced his left side. The only thing that stopped him from being pierced like a ragdoll was the seatbelt that I had tied around his neck. It had prevented him from being launched into the door. His face was filled with cuts and scattered with glass, I reached over to his neck to check his pulse it was still there and it wasn't faint. Run! Get out of there Ally. And as if this whole scene wasn't enough to scare me, Luka's eyes sprang open. Ally run please run. The human body has different ways to react to fear and at this moment all the blood in my limbs froze. He looked at me with some much intensity, his eyes were filled with so much evil. I swear he was the incarnation of the devil himself. The adrenaline in my body started racing all over me. I didn't even have second thoughts I started to run. I felt the cold air hit my face as I made my way back to the road. I felt the rough tar coming into contact with my bare feet. At this moment I didn't care. I had to run get as far away from Luka as possible. I had to run for my life, my existence was hanging on the balance and the thing that determined if I lived or died was running.

My lungs started burning but the adrenaline flowing in my body numbed out the pain. I was running for my freedom, my sister and above everything else I was running for my life.
