Her Greatest Threat

CHAPTER 5

Divine's POV

It's said that once you vanish from the world's existence, it's a feeling of everlasting joy.

I shut my eyes. l could feel the bullet pass across me, like a flashing wind heading for the North. For sure the bullet had not touched me, but instead, it left a feeling of fright still leaving within me.

I turned upwards to face him, and again I was met with a familiar pair of blue eyes. The gun still raised at me, a feeling of regret hit me hard, then a tear decided to run down my left cheek.

A smirk formed itself wildly on his lips and that's when I realised it wasn't over yet.

This man was surely not sparing me this time around. Even my silent prayers weren't doing the most.

I felt useless. It all felt useless. 'maybe it's just life against me' I thought lazily. I'd already given up. He was surely winning this round, which I had no chance at all. Death was already waiting for me anyway, and I on the other hand, had no choice but to give myself away as a prisoner to death instead.

"That's how I love them." he said, as he slowly began walking towards me. I just stood still, like frozen ice. It was more like the ground had rooted my feet like a tree is held against the ground. He reached to my spot, then looked at me from below. As always, I felt shot. But that wasn't really something I should be worrying about.

I looked at him from above, not like there was another way I could look at him. He lowered himself to reach my height, from this got me the thought as to which people would do this to help me or to insult me due to my height, something that was surely not funny.

At this moment he was facing me, while his eyes looked deep into mine, emotionlessly. "Scared." It sounded more of a question than a statement.

Still, I wisely chose to remain silent. Maybe, just maybe he'd spare my life.

"What's your name?" he asked, suddenly. I could feel my eyes growing wide. Just why would he suddenly want to know my name? Something that obviously got me confused.

"Huh? y...yo..you want...m..my na..n...ame?"

"Stop stuttering beautiful." he commanded in calm yet serious tone. "You won't want me asking you twice, now would you?" he said.

"Di...Divine. It's Divine."

"Divine?" I could only nod at that.

"Hhmm...I love it more when you talk." he said, like he was daring me to nod again.

"Y..yes." I said, making the conversation short.

Without taking his eyes off me, he called, "Steven!" his shouting made me

bounce on my spot.

His look only kept sending shivers down my spine, and with each second, the moment only became more awkward. For me I'd say. I turned my head facing dawnwards, once I had enough with him eye r****g me. It became much easier to breath while I stared at the concrete ground, that looked back at me with no interest.

The man called Steven came walking in gently, just as soon as he heard his master's voice. To bad the poor guy had to go around following what somebody else says to him. But I think I'm the one who's about to loose a life, actually. I guess he's the lucky one. Unlike him, I'm the one who's fighting in a cube cell for my life. Great isn't it?

"Yes boss? you called."

"Set up the dinning table." he said. 'what? dining table?' I thought mentally. Was this man about to kill me or celebrating my doom and he's victroy, atleast before the real action begins.

I wasn't facing him but I knew that there was a smirk playing on he's face while he couldn't stop boring holes through my scalp.

'SZZZZZ, SZZZZ!' A loud noise rang in between.

He suddenly pulled out his phone from pokect, then made space between us as he answered it

'Hwwh...didn't think this moment would ever come, thank God' saying this, I suddendly thought of the fact that I'm being held captive in a lion's dan. 'Could this be what daniel from the bible went through when he was been held captive in a lion's dan. Similar...maybe. No no no no no no, I think my experiance is much worse, this is like traveling down to the mountains of hell and meeting with the king of torture himself. No, just shut up i***t. God will surely save me, he will save me from all this' at this moment I could only depend on my faith. I had to find a way out of here. "I'm a Christian, I'm a Christian, I'm a Christi..."

"Are you praying?" That's when I realised that my eyes have been closed for nearly five minutes. I suddenly glared at him, and that's when I actually realised how handsome he really, really was. 'could almost be compared to a Greek God' a voice in me subconsiously said. 'You think?' Giving it a blind reponse, I snapped back to reality, but only to find out that a pair of magneficient sexy green eyes were already looking into mine, whilst his arms block both my ways.

Looking into his eyes, I could feel the tension raising in between. This obviously, didn't sit well with me. Persperation kept on flowing down my forehead, like tap that just wouldn't go off.

"Sorry honey, but your God is not here to save you."

I seriously wanted to punch this psyco, hard. What did he want from me?

Just then the door went wide open, leaving a loud, abnormally echo and a stuned me.

This made Mr 'can not take his eyes of me' look back in amusement.

"Hey handsome." 'what the freaking fish!'

A young woman who looked like she was going to her late twenties approached towards our direction. She was wear green dress that held on to her like a second skin. It hunged upon her body exposing her mid thigh, that looked like a vampire had been sucking her blood through out the night. It looked so skinny, you'd actually think she hadn't eaten for days. 'Vampire? more of a mosquito to me' subconsious me spoke. I almost laughed hard on that but I bite my lips not to cause any scenes that would grab attention.

Her sharp stilettos kept on hitting the ground mercylessly. It almost made my ears wrestle her with some serious slaps, but lucky for her my strenght had all ran out, all due to this 'nonsence of a man' 'if only he could hear me say this to him, he surely won't hesitate in making a sharp hole through my scalp' I thought mentally.

"Anika, what f**k are you doing here?" dissapointment could clearly be seen on his face. The lady with the skinny thighs came walking towards us looking really angry.

"What do you f*****g mean what I'm doing here, can't you see that I came to..."And that's when her eyes met mine.

"Who and what the f**k is she doing around you arms like that?" OH MY GOD!

"Anika, I asked you something, don't make me repeat myself." In his deep husky voice he said.

I looked at what I saw as a couple with a questioning mark still in my head. The woman I asumed to be Anika stood still in shock, not daring to utter a word. She suddenly turned her gaze to me, and it surely wasn't a friendly one. 'am I signinig my death certificate?' I shock the my head taking the thought off me. At this moment it didn't really seem like I was undergoing a hell tragedy, but instead enjoying a show at a theater. I did find my self smiling though, it was entertaing after all. 'wait was I smiling?' This is something this monster shouldn't see, I really don't want to be ripped apart, atleast not my body.

Anika suddenly began walking towards Mr him, while he didn't even blink, he only stood still, like some serious statue who's certainly not intrested in people's life issues.

With every step she took a sound from her stilettos made it's way with each word she had gathered the courage to utter.

"You are a stupid, i***t, imbisile, jerk of a man. YOU GOT THAT!"

OH HOLY MOTHER OF MARRY!

Only a smirk made it's way on his lips as a reponse.

He suddenly reached out for something in his pants, and I swear, I could feel my heart loosing it's beat. 'no, no, no'

To my excitement, he only ended up taking out a nepkin and began wiping up his face.

Must have been the siliver that was been sprinkled on him whilst Anika spoke out her heart in anger.

"Hwwh..." 'that was....*BANG*' That's new.

I look up at the loud noise only to find a body laying around fresh blood. To my horro, the body laying on the ground was Anika's and Mr him held up a gun in his hand as it constanly pointed to Anika's dead body laying down helplessly.

He suddenly turned to me then gave me one of the most creepiest smiles I had only seen in horrendous movies, and I couldn't belive my eyes. He had blood all over his face making him look like a real devil on earth.

I wanted to scream so loud that the police will eventually get here and save me from this monster, but that only happened in imaginations and I had to constantly reamind myself that I'm not leaving in those but in the real world instead.

"I'm so....sorry...I won't ...t..tell anyone...any...thi..thing." He chuckled.

"That's more like it. fear"

He began walking towards me. I couldn't help but lay out a scream."AHHHHHHHH!..PLEASE...STAY..STAY AWAY FROM ME...STAY AWAY!" my screams didn't really seem to work, becouse he still kept getting closer and closer to me and before I knew it, our lips touch and he began to kiss me so violently, like his life depanded on it. On the other hand it only made me feel like I'll be choking to death anytime soon.

He suddenly leaned down closer to my ear, and whispered, "I'm never letting you go princess. Never!"

With that he softly kissed my forehead.

And I was stuck in a world of fear and confusion.
