Chapter 11
I haven't slept a wink. Too afraid that if I closed my eyes something bad would happen to me.
I don't know how long I've been locked up down here in this cell, with these men eyeing me.
Ever since I got kidnapped, it's like I have lost track of time. I honestly don't know how long I've been kidnapped for. It could be a week, a month or probably a year. Ok I know that I'm exaggerating, because obviously a year hasn't passed by. Or has it?
Every day I would wake up thinking that this was just a terrible nightmare, that I would wake up from. And every day I would be disappointed as I realized that this is my life now.
Sighing I took a look around my surrounding. It was so cold in here and the lights were dim. The smell was awful; this room had a stench of death. I wonder how many people had died down here. Could I be next?
There was nothing I could do as I sat on the hard concrete floor, awaiting my faith.
Ever since I've been kidnapped, I've done things that I would never in a million years do. But I guess desperate times call for desperate measures.
"You can't keep her locked up in there" I heard a voice say just beyond the door of this prison.
"I can and I will" another voice replied.
Were they talking about me? I mean I was the only girl here from as far as I could tell.
"If you think that it's so unfair of me to lock her up in there, why don't I lock you up too so you can keep each otherâs company" The same voice snapped.
From the tone of that voice, I knew exactly who it belonged to. Emilio. That bastard.
"She just broke a few things that you can easily replace" the voice from before spoke up again.
"It's not about money, it's about respect. Until she learns to respect me and realize who is in charge around here, she'll continue to be locked up, until I decide to let her out. And that's final" Emilio spoke. Then I heard some retreating footsteps.
Oh wow. I'm being punished because I fail to respect the man who kidnapped me. Asshole. How can he expect me to respect him while he still holds me hostage?
I will never understand some people.
"What is a pretty little thing like you doing down here?" the disgusting man from the cell across me asked.
I refused to answer his question and this seemed to anger him.
"You answer me when I ask a question you fucking whore!" he exclaimed in anger.
This dude is getting angry at me for not answering his question. Who does he think he is?
"OK. Don't answer me" he backed down, finally leaving me alone.
Suddenly the door burst open and a man walked in with a gun in his hand. This can't be good. He walked right up to my cell and stop right in front of it.
"Hello there" he said with a mocking smirk on his face.
Oh, I know him. He was the same guy who used to escort me to the bathroom when I was locked up in a room at the warehouse. The same guy who I pulled the period card on to escape.
"Oh, hey. Haven't seen you in a while" I joked as I remembered outsmarting this idiot in front of me.
"I see you finally ended up where you belong" He snickered, clearly enjoying my predicament.
"I see you haven't changed at all, still stupid and mouthy as usual. I don't even know why they'd let you watch over prisoners, when you couldn't even stop one girl from getting away" I smirked.
I knew I was getting under his skin, but he made it too easy. His jaw clenched in anger as he turned his back on me, unlocking the cell across from me. Well, at least that disgusting man won't be here anymore.
"Cat got your tongue" I teased.
"You can talk all you want. You're not going to be using that mouth for much longer, so if I were you, I would enjoy what little time I have left" he replied.
He was right. I don't know how long I had left.
"Bye. It was nice knowing yah" his voice dripped with sarcasm.
He dragged the man out of the room, as the man struggled against his hold, begging for his life. That disgusting pig is not so tough after all.
I reflected upon his words as I thought of a way to get out of this situation.
I woke up to a door being slammed shut. I fell asleep. But how? How could I sleep in a place like this?
I trembled in fear as I heard heavy footsteps echo in the empty room. It was coming in my direction. Oh no, were they already here for me.
The person stopped right in front of my cell. I took my time as I trailed my eyes up from the boots to the face of the person.
"Time's up piccolo. I hope you have learnt your lesson, because if not, I would be forced to let you stay here for a little while longer or at least until you learned your lesson" he spoke to me as if he was talking to a child.
I nodded my head vigorously, wanting to get out of here as soon as possible. I would do anything to get out of here. Well, not anything, but you get what I mean.
"You know, normally I wouldn't give someone so many chances, but I like you. So, I'm giving you one last chance to impress me. If you fail to comply with my wishes again, I will not hesitate to put a bullet in that pretty head of yours" he said smoothly.
I nodded again afraid that if I spoke, my voice would betray me.
"Use your words" he gritted out annoyed.
"Yes" I quickly replied.
"Yes what?" he asked.
I was confused. What else was he expecting me to say?
He could see the confused look on my face, so he told me what to say.
"Master. From now on you refer to me as master" he said.
Was he being serious right now? He couldn't really expect me to call him that, but the serious look he had on his face showed just how serious he was.
Swallowing my pride, I decided that it would be best not to get on his bad side.
"Yes master" I let out with a fake smile plastered on my face.
He smirked at my reply before opening my cell. I scrambled to my feet more than ready to get out of this place.
I walked behind him as he led the way. Thankfully, this time he was not dragging me.
"As of now you will be doing everything, I ask you to do. You do not get a say in any of this. Do you understand?" he stated, leaving no room for a discussion.
"Yes master" I replied timidly.
"From now on you will be cleaning my room and preparing my meal. I assume you know how to cook, no?"
Is he for real right now? If he wanted a maid, I'm sure he already has a few around to keep this big ass house clean.
"Yes master" I replied. I have a feeling that I will be saying this way more often than I wanted to.
We were now on the first floor; walking passes the foyer. The place was spotless and everything was in its right place, as if nothing had happened. He replaced everything.
I thought he said that I was going to clean this up all by myself. I was glad that it was already clean, because I had been dreading cleaning up all the mess, I made by myself.
We were now standing in the kitchen. It was weird being in here; because the last time I was here there was glass everywhere. Now looking at it, it was as spotless as the first time I had seen it.
"I want you to make me lunch" he said nonchalantly.
"What would you like to eat?" I asked.
He raised a brow as if waiting for me to say something else. Oh right. I forgot to call him master.
"Master" I finished with distaste.
"Anything is fine" he replied walking away.
"Wait... I don't know where anything is in here" I said sheepishly.
"Not my problem. Figure it out" he said as he walked off over to the window where there was a table.
He sat down and took out his phone, completely ignoring me.
Dick.
I got to work as I searched the fridge for ingredients to make a turkey sandwich. It took 10 minutes to prepare.
I served him the sandwich with orange juice and then walked back over to the counter to clean up the mess.
I was also hungry, but I did not know if I could eat anything.
"Aren't you going to make something for yourself?" he asked taking a bite from the sandwich.
"Yes master" I replied getting to work on my own sandwich.
I was waiting on him to give a snarky remark of some kind, but instead he continued to eat the sandwich not saying anything else.
After I was finish, I sat at the island ready to take my first bite when his voice broke the silence.
"Come sit. From now on you will prepare meals for both of us and you will also eat with me" he gestured to the seat across from him.
I did not object as I took the seat before him, not that I could object or anything.
He made me very uncomfortable, as he would from time-to-time glance at me. I pushed pass my discomfort and finished my meal.
I got up and took both our dirty plates to the sink as I cleaned up the kitchen.
"Oh, and by the way you should really take a shower. You stink" and here I thought we were actually getting along for once, but he had to say something to ruin the mood.
Jerk.
"As you wish, master" I replied with sarcasm as I left the kitchen, his chuckles loud behind me.
I cracked a little smile as I thought that maybe we could finally get along long enough for him to actually let me go.
"You again" the blonde from before screeched. Her voice was so high pitched; it hurt my ears every time she opened her mouth.
My little smile quickly vanished from my face upon seeing her. As usual, she was dressed half naked. Does she not own any decent clothes?
I walked around her, completely ignoring her.
"Don't you dare ignore me?" she snapped, grabbing onto my arm.
Who does she think she is?
Pulling my arm away, I continued my walk to the room I occupied in this house. I was not going to waste my time and energy on that dumb bitch
