Falling in love with my kidnapper

CHAPTER 7: NEGOTIATIONS

CHAPTER 7: NEGOTIATIONS

*Alison's pnt of view*

A blinding light comes through the window and wakes me up. Ahgg, why couldn't I close it before I went to sleep last night? Suddenly I realize a pressure in my chest, what the hell is this? Why can't I move !? In a moment all the images from yesterday come to my mind, ah yes, I'm not in the castle anymore, I'm in a hotel with my kidnapper, great! I don't know how we finished both glued, my back to his chest, I have an arm raised towards the head of the bed thanks to the handcuffs. Alek puts his arm around me, my head resting on his chest and our legs are tangled. I try to get his arm off me but it's too heavy. I decide to continue lying like this with him. After a while I feel Alek moves, he moves away from me and stretch, I take the opportunity to move to the other side of the bed, although I am still trapped with the handcuffs on the bed.

- It was about time for you to wake up, you were crushing me - I tell him. I couldn't sleep well, and that affects my mood.

- Wow, we woke up on the wrong foot, huh? - He answers with a smile on his lips. He's such an i***t, after all he makes fun of me.

- Well, I wouldn't be in a bad mood if you didn't run me away tied to the bed like I was an animal. Thanks to you I didn't slept very well.

- If you behaved well instead of trying to escape all the time I wouldn't have to tie you to bed.

- First, forgive me for trying to escape from a crazy guy who had kidn*pped me.

- Auch, that hurt, I'm not just any crazy guy, I'm actually pretty cool. - interrupts me.

- And second, I haven't tried to escape so many times! - I continue. 

- But you have thought of escaping

- As if you knew what I think.

- Probably you are thinking right now: "how I, a normal girl, could have shared a bed with this guy, sculpted by the gods and funny like no other" - he's an i***t, but who he thinks he is to talk to me like that!?. This suggestion angers me even more than I already was.

- Well, you i***t, you failed, I was thinking why the hell the guy who kidn*pped me had to be so stupid and vain. - Then I hit him on the arm and he starts to laugh.

- Come on, go get dressed and we go down to breakfast - he says still laughing. I go to the closet, grab my clothes and head to the bathroom, still in a bad mood. How does he dare!

The days pass by very slow, I don't have many things to do. Before, I used to spend the day here and there, signing paperwork, attending meetings and a long list of other responsibilities that I couldn't avoid. Since Alek kidn*pped me, that has completely changed, I spend my days in the Cansen hotel suite, we leave the room every day to eat in the hotel restaurant, and once in a while we have gone down to the beach which is nearby, since there aren't usually many people there, but the rest of the time, I spend it in the room. According to what Alek says every time I ask him why we didn't go out, and I quote verbatim "I only follow orders, and I can't allow someone to recognize you or my father's anger would be monumental and he would end both of us, literally. " What a drag! For once in my life I can rest, I can bathe in these huge pools, sunbathe and enjoy a little, but the i***t of my kidnapper has me locked in a room. Do not get me wrong, I'm aware that this aren't holidays, and believe me when I tell you that I am thinking of escape plans, all equally crazy, but Alek has everything in mind and every time I think of running away he's one step ahead, and since I am here and I have nothing better to do, it wouldn't be bad to be able to enjoy a little.

- What are you thinking about? - Alek bursts into my thoughts. We are in the room lying on the bed, the television is on but we are not even watching it.

- I'm thinking that it's a shame to have those huge pools and not take advantage of them.

- Again with the same - Alek huffs - I've already told you a thousand times that we can't go out, too much that sometimes we go down to the beach, if my father found out he would kill me for risking the mission so much.

- I'm the mission?

- Yes, you are the mission

- I don't like being treated as if I were an object, not to say that a guy orders me what to do.

- Well, I think that's great, but I don't like get my neck broke, which is just what my father would do to me if he found out that I had taken you out of the suite, that he's paying, and that costs an arm and a leg. 

- Come on Alek - I sniff at him like a little girl and get a little closer to him in bed - couldn't we go out even just a little bit? I promise that I will behave. - I say that getting closer to him until there's only a span between our faces. He looks nervous, and he breathes harder every time I get closer and closer.

- Okaay. - He says extending the last vowel - But with one condition. - wow this gets interesting.

- What is that condition? - I ask while I look at him with raised eyebrows.

- That you dye your hair, then there will be less chance that nobody will recognize you and my father doesn't have to know anything. 

- In the next sentence you will appreciate how bored and desperate I am.

- Okay, okay, I accept. As long as I can also go shopping.

- Why do you want to go shopping now?

- I need a bikini, how do you want me to get into the pool? . - Alek rolls his eyes.

- Okay, but you'll have to go shopping with me.

- Deal done - and we shake hands as good negotiators that we are.
