CHAPTER 37
LUCY
The car comes to a stop and I hear her get out before the door next to me opens and she drags me out of it. I still can’t see anything as we begin walking. She drags me through a door and throws me down on the ground. I hit some type of what feels like a bed and I try to adjust myself to be more comfortable.
Being comfortable is kind of hard with not being able to feel my hands and my arms being behind my back. The cover over my head is ripped off and my eyes take a second to adjust. All I can see are black walls, the light behind her and her.
She looks at me and just smiles, “You are kind of pretty but too bad you won’t be going back to him. Speaking of who was the other guy that was with you two? I noticed he stayed behind when you two walked to the car.”
“That is my husband!”
She laughs, “So what, you think you can just have two men? That is not how this life works you silly little girl. You get one and that is it. You can’t have two all to yourself.”
“But, I love both of them and they both love me. Why can’t I have both of them?”
She grabs my face, “Adam does NOT love you and never will!”
“He does love me and he loves my husband too!”
She cocks her head, “What do you mean he loves your husband? Adam isn’t gay!”
“Do you even know him at all? I have known him way longer than you ever have and he loves my husband with everything.”
She laughs again, “Of course I know him. But, that sounds like such bullshit and that is not who he is. Did you two brainwash him into loving you two?”
“No we didn’t. Are you going to try and brainwash him into loving you?”
She slaps me across my face and I let out a whine. Fuck that hurt and I wish I could punch her in her face. She doesn’t know Adam at all and if she thinks he still loves her she is delusional.
She stands up, “Well if this is the case. I think I will just hold you for ransom. A trade for a trade. I get Adam and your husband gets you back. You think your husband will give him up for his little wife?”
“My husband will do everything in his power to get me home safely and not give Adam to you. I can promise you that but go ahead and try to make a ransom for me.”
She slaps me again because I know I had a lot of attitude with what I just said to her. Does she really think Travis would just trade Adam like that? I mean any other just random guy he definitely would to get me back. But he loves Adam just as much as he loves me and I wouldn’t want him to trade him for me.
Definitely not to be left with this psycho. Hell, I would rather be tortured so they will be safe than letting either of them be tortured.
She walks around me before walking to the door and shutting off the light.
She chuckles, “I hope you get some sleep. Tomorrow is going to be a real treat for you.”
She continues laughing as she shuts the door behind her and I hear it lock from the outside. Fuck, I am never going to get out of here and I damn sure am never going to be fed.
TRAVIS
A doctor walks up to me in the waiting room, “Are you the family of Adam?”
“Uh..yeah…he is..my..uhh..partner. Is he going to be okay?”
He lets out a sigh, “He has lost a lot of blood. They are still operating right now but it looks like he is going to pull through. Once he is done he will be transported to the ICU and then you can go see him. Is there anybody else that you need to call?”
“No, there is nobody else. Please just take care of him and I will be right here waiting.”
He looks down at my hands, “Sir, go get yourself cleaned up. If you need a change of clothes you can ask a nurse for some. I know you have had a long night and we will help in any way we can.”
“I will. Thank you so much!”
He nods before he turns around to walk away. I do need to go get cleaned up. I have blood all over me and I am pretty sure it would be a scary sight to anybody that walked in here. I am actually surprised nobody has asked if I was okay. But I have been keeping to myself over here in this corner.
I walk over to the bathroom and thankfully it is vacant. I walk in, turn the light on and lock the door behind me. I place my back up against the door and I just fall to the ground. I put my head in my hands and just started sobbing. I knew I wouldn’t cry in front of strangers but now that I am alone they aren’t going to stop.
I am one guy that typically never cries because I learned the hard way growing up that crying doesn't get you anywhere. But, right now with how angry I am and how much I just want them to be okay. All that I can do is cry and beg and plead for them to be okay and come back to me safely.
I will go to the ends of the earth to find my wife as soon as I know Adam is okay. With the police out looking for my car right now there is nothing I can do. Unless I just go out on my own and then I will just get myself in trouble. One thing is for sure, my wife will come home to me soon.
We will have our family. All three of us will start a family together no matter what.
