I ran. Ran like I never have before. My heart pounded in my chest rapidly while my vision blurred from the tears. I don't know what he wants from me but I can't sacrifice my entire existence for a mysterious stranger.

       As soon as I exited his huge mansion from the backside, the view left me appalled. A huge wired fence surrounded the area, enclosing me into this destiny. Fortunately, it looked climbable so I ran towards it until I heard his voice. 

      "FAITH !" I turned slowly to the dominating voice. It shut off my body systems. I couldn't move...yet he didn't come forward. I took that as a chance to get closer to the fence. But his hard eyes and clenched teeth made it hard. He was angry and I never made anyone that angry before. I snapped out of it when he told one of his men to get closer to me and within seconds, like a puppet, he obeyed. That's when I realized the kind of power and authority he holds.

"I am asking you only once calmly to come over here." He said calmly. However, his words did not match his eyes. They held enough anger to destroy the world. In the corner of my eye, his worker came closer to me. Step by step. 

"NOW!" He yelled making me flinch as my eyes teared up again. 

      Within seconds, he pulled out a gun and aimed it at me before slowly guiding towards his own worker. Before I could comprehend where this was going - he shot him right below the heart. I let out a scream as he pressed his bloody palms to his chest and screamed for help. He slowly walked backwards before falling over and his fingers barely touching the wire on the fence. His death arrived as he was electrified to a high extent. 

I couldn't look at his murdered body but neither could I pry my eyes away. It was horrifically captivating. Unable to move, I stood still in fear and shock until I began to feel dizzy and before I knew it, I hit the rough arms of him instead of the ground. He gave me a sly smirk as the darkness overtook me.
