Chapter Three- You Are My Slave
1039 Words
When Lena woke up, she found herself in a very strange background.
She was lying on a bed, which was weird, because the last thing she remembered was the car halting harshly and her losing consciousness.
Seeing herself lying down on a bed in a strange environment is really weird.
She immediately stood up from the bed and went straight to the door. As she tried opening the door, she realized that it was locked.
She became scared and started knocking vigorously.
“Please open the door.”
“Who is there?”
“Can you hear me??”
She kept on knocking but nobody responded to her.
She became scared, really, really scared.
This was the first time she was seeing herself in this kind of situation, and she had no idea of what to do.
She went to the bathroom and checked everywhere—it was empty.
She returned to knocking on the door, but nobody responded to her.
She had no other option than to go back to the bed. She started replaying everything that had occurred in the past twenty-four hours.
She was packing for school, then she was leaving the country, and now she was in a very strange environment.
Lena decided to stay there and wait till whoever was holding her would come.
After what felt like eternity, the door opened. Two bulky men came in and dragged her out with them.
“Hey!! Leave me alone… leave me alone, who are you?” Lena asked as she tried shaking them off, but she couldn’t.
She became helpless and started screaming, but it felt like she was screaming and talking to the deaf.
They dragged her to a dark room that had little to no lighting. She was confined to a chair. They tied her hands and legs and gagged her mouth.
She tried muffling a scream, but nobody was listening.
Somebody came in. She was not able to see his face, but he exuded an aura even when hidden from presence—
an aura that screamed dangerous, that screamed evil, and screamed possessiveness.
Then he sat down opposite her and signaled one of his men to remove the cotton used to gag her mouth.
Immediately she was let loose, she started screaming—screaming, screaming, screaming.
“Let me gooo!!!!! Let me goooo!!!” Tears rolled down her eyes as she screamed.
The next thing she heard was a gunshot, and she instantly became quiet.
“Oooff… I missed, but next shot I won’t.
You don’t scream like an animal in my presence. Do you understand?”
At this point, she didn’t know if she was shaken by the gunshot—because it was her first time hearing one so close—or by his commanding voice.
“Hmmm… let’s call your father and let him know you’re here safely,” Damian said as he brought out his phone.
He called the first time, but there was no answer.
“That’s rude!!” Damian said while staring at the shaken rabbit.
“Let’s try it again,” he said nonchalantly.
He called a second time, and this time the call was picked.
“You don’t let me call you twice before picking my call,” Damian issued a warning, his voice cold as death.
Lena could hear her father’s voice.
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry, I was a little busy.”
“Yeah, busy with your daughter’s escape, right?”
“No… no… no…” Mr. Hayes said almost immediately, trying to hide his shaken voice.
“Lying, trying to outsmart me, and also not picking my calls. How many more times do you plan on playing with me?” Damian asked coldly while staring at Lena.
“Well, you will certainly pay for that, but why don’t you say hello to your lovely daughter?”
Lena started screaming.
“Daddy, please help me!!! They are monsters!! Please save me!!!”
Damian ended the call before the person on the other end could say anything.
He returned his gaze to her, sizing her up from head to toe before speaking.
“I am your master, and you are my slave. I own you. You’re my property. Do you understand?”
“I am no one’s property. I’m a human being, and I am not owned by anybody, less becoming a slave,” she answered fiercely, her voice hoarse from screaming.
Damian chuckled.
The girl in front of him looked scared and shaken, yet she still put up a strong front.
“Huh huh!!” Damian chuckled again.
“I love it when people act fierce and wild. I love humbling them. I love inflicting pain on them till they have no voice.”
“So let’s make this clear. I’m your master. You are my slave. Think twice before trying to mess up, because I won’t think while punishing you.”
With that, he left the room and signaled his men to take her back to her room.
Lena felt goosebumps all over her body as she replayed everything he said.
He was a monster, and she wasn’t ready to stay here for a second.
Lena was sent back into the room, and the door was locked.
She settled on the bed, the only thing on her mind was how to escape. She searched around—there was no escape route.
But she decided she would make one for herself, even if it took time.
“I must find a means.”
On the other side, Mr. Hayes was still holding onto the phone, crying and apologizing to his daughter.
“I’m sorry, Lena… I’m sorry… I’m so, so sorry…”
As he cried, his wife walked into the room.
“Where is Lena? I’ve checked the whole house, and she’s nowhere to be seen. Where is she? Why are you crying?” she asked, panic rising.
He said nothing—just kept crying and muttering,
“I’m sorry, Lena… I’m sorry, Lena… I’m sorry, my dear daughter… I’m sorry…”
Sarah heard him clearly—and she didn’t take it lightly.
She moved closer and asked again,
“Where is my daughter? What have you done? Where is my daughter?”
