CHAPTER 11: HERE WE GO AGAIN
*Alison's pnt of view*
When I manage to open my eyes I've a huge headache. The images from the night before come to mind. Damn! I can't believe it. How could I be so stupid to get carried away. I fell into temptation and that's why I'm here right now. Again handcuffed in a car, with my kidnapper by my side and going to who knows where. That way I'll never get home.
- Wow, you already woke up
Alek looks at me and smiles. If I wasn't handcuffed, he'd have gotten a smack.
- You're an asshole!
- Wow, what a great compliment.
- Who the hell do you think you are? You're an asshole and an arrogant - I'm very angry and sick of this.
- If you think I want this you're very wrong, but it's still what I have to do, and I can assure you that if you make it difficult to me, things are going to get very bad. As I already told you, I'm going to stop being so nice to you.
I don't care how you pretend to be with me, you asshole. I just want you to let me go.
- In your dreams, bae.
I started kicking. I put my feet up on the dashboard and started kicking there.
- Get your feet down from there right now - Alek says with an authoritative tone.
- Why should I obey you? - I ask him and I keep kicking the dashboard.
Alek pulls out of the traffic and pulls over to the side of the road. Great! Now I only have to wait until Alek stops the car and opens my door. Then I'll get out of the car and run. Finally, I'll find someone to help me. It sounds like a great plan.
But Alek doesn't get out of the car. He stops it and then looks at me.
- Listen to me because I'm only going to tell you one more time - Alek grabs my face with one hand and makes me look at him. His grip is hurting me, so I try to get away without success, since my hands are tied - you will do what I say, when I say or I won't have mercy on you. In what I hope will be a short time, my father will come, he'll take care of you and I'll never have to see you again - with a strong shake he releases my face
- You are a coward. You can't even stand up to your father and you keep doing everything he tells you to do without thinking about the consequences.
Alek looks at me with eyes full of anger.
- You have no idea how I am.
I sink into the seat and close my eyes. I want to forget about all this for a moment. I want to get out of here as soon as possible. I want to go back to the life I had before. But it is much easier said than done
*Alek's pnt of view*
It's easier that way, right? It's easier if she thinks I'm the monster that she thinks I am. In fact, what I've told her is true. My father, the great Dmitriev, will take her away. He will negotiate with the king and she'll return to her old life. And I'll never see her again. I don't fit into her idyllic life. Yes, it is easier this way. But making it easier doesn't make it any less hard for me.
Alison's quiet the rest of the trip. In 15 minutes we will arrive at the next location, the house (or mansion) from my family, in the middle of the field. On the first floor there's a kitchen, a dining room and a living room. On the second floor, six bedrooms, a suite and three bathrooms. In the basement, a gym. And in the garden there's a swimming pool.
Here I spent most of my childhood. When my father sent me to this location I was surprised. He had never brought anyone to this house. It was only ours.
When we arrive at my family's house I park the car in front of the house. I pick Alison from the handcuffs and I make her get out of the car. We get in the house. Alison doesn’t say a word. Putting my hand in her back we get up through the big steps and I direct her to what will be our room while we are here. I take off the handcuffs, I command her not to move and I go down for the suitcases.
When I return, she is lying down in the bed with the eyes closed. Surprisingly, she has paid attention to me, and she hasn’t moved from the place where I left her. I can’t help but stay looking at her. ¿What is she doing to me?
Weeks passed and everything remains the same. Alison takes no notice of me. We only see each other on breakfast, on lunch and on dinner. And on these occasions, Alison doesn’t say a word. The rest of the day I look at her from the distance, and not only to make sure she doesn’t escape.
I spend the days wandering through the house and the garden, remembering old memories, and waiting for my fathers arrival, and the end of this torture. I didn’t expect that Alison could hurt me so much, but it does. Every look with hate and anger, every time she passes by my side and doesn’t talk to me. I hate this feeling that forms in my chest. I hate that she has so much power over me. But it's true. And I can’t do anything to change it. And the worst thing is that I deserve it. Because I’ve been an ashole to her. Because I’ve said yes from the beginning to this crap of mission, and this s**t of life. I should have talked to my father from the beginning and I should have said to him what I think about his f*****g mission. I should have left when I had the opportunity. However, I’m now up to my eyeballs in this, and I don’t know how to get out.
Hi readers!
First off all I want to say sorry. I know I've been disappear for a long time. I've started second A levels, and I have lots of work. However, I'll try to keep uploading the soon as I can. I want to thank you all a second time for staying here. And I hope you like this chapter and the wait has been worth it.
Bye for now!
