Chapter 8: Can't leave the comfy bed

Ella's POV:

It's been a few days after, the Josh incident and Jin's visit. I really am happy that he visited me, since I feel good now.

I was heading towards home after work. Yeah, I started working again. It's good to be back. But whenever I see that alley, it brings back memories of Ethan. I really should've gotten my mental health evaluated because I was still thinking about someone who had probably forgotten about my existence, much less my name.

It has been a while since I heard footsteps behind me. They may be heading the same way as me, so I shrugged it off. After a while, it stopped. I let out a sigh of relief. I knew they were not after me. I was nearly going to reach my apartment when someone covered my mouth from behind. I struggled, but it was all in vain. My vision was getting blurry and I heard some voices. 

"Finally, she came in hand." Then all went dark.

I woke up with a light headache. The surroundings were not familiar. I was inside a big room with cream-coloured walls, on a bed which felt like the most comfortable bed in the world. As I was admiring the room without thinking I had been kidnapped, my eyes caught my leg. I was chained. WTF!? Whoever kidnapped me was stupid to think I would leave this super comfy bed.

Few minutes later, I could hear some murmuring outside the room. They were faint, but I could make some words out of it.

'Did you get her?'

'Yes, sir.'

'Good, but if she isn't the one I told you to bring, then you know what will happen to you, right?'

'Y-yes sir.'

Well, someone's in trouble. Hahaha. I was chuckling to myself at the thought when the door opened, revealing the person I despised the most.

 V! WTF does he want with me?

Is he going to take revenge about how I was rude to him and kicked him out? Am I going to die here? But I haven't even married yet. I haven't even said sorry to my parents for being a bad child. Lord save me.

As soon as he saw that I was awake, he smiled at me. More like a smirk. I rolled my eyes.

"Yah! Keep rolling your eyes, you might find your brain. If only you have one." What the hell? I got kidnapped, and the first thing I get is an insult? It's not what I saw in dramas. No cut!

"Just what the hell do you want from me. Let me get the fuck out of here." I hissed at him.

He chuckled and sat on the bed. He raised his hand. I closed my eyes for an impact as I thought I was getting slapped but instead, he caressed my cheek. Okay, that was unexpected. I opened my eyes only to see him smiling at me. Creepy, but cute. I am being weird again. 

He closed the distance between our faces just when his lips were going to touch mine, I closed my eyes. He chuckled and whispered in my ears. "What I want from you, you say? You. I want you and from today you are taken by this man here. You are mine."

I couldn't hold it in anymore. I laughed. I laughed so hard that I nearly fell from the bed.

"As if you can. You think I will stay here. Dream on." I said swaying my hands at him. 

"Don't worry, babe."

Did he just 'babe' me again?

"I'm not asking you. I'm just informing you. As far as I know, you love your family, right? You don't want them to get hurt, do you?" 

Is this where the girl begs the villain to spare her family? 

"Listen, V, or whatever you are. You aren’t doing that. If you ever laid your hands on them, I am going to make sure you pay." I said in more like a threatening tone. But he smirked. Am I not scary enough?

"Cute. Don't worry, I won't hurt them as long as you obey and be a good girl."

"But what do you want from me? I saved your life and I get this?" I said pointing at my chained leg.

"I will get to it straight. I like you Ella Scarlet. I really like you a lot. And I don't want you to leave me." He said with a sigh, leaving me shook.

"I don't like you. In fact, I think I hate you." Bitch resting face right there.

"Don't worry princess, you will. I will make you fall for me." He said kissing my forehead leaving me dumbfounded.

"Rest for now. I will come back after I finish my job. And don't ever think of getting away, you don't know what I can do." He somewhat threatened me and unlocked the chain from my leg. Leaving me all alone in the room, well I can use this time to plot his murder.
