Allie’s POV
I ran and ran until my legs gave out on me. After being beaten by the twins and then almost r***d by Viktor, I was utterly exhausted. I also hadn’t eaten anything since last night. My body was sore all over, and I just wanted to rest. I knelt on the ground breathing heavily as tears streamed down my face. Why can’t I just have a normal life? Why is it that my past keeps coming to haunt me? Will I ever have a happy ending and some peace? I sat down on a tree trunk and sobbed. I just don't understand why they won't level me alone. Have I done something in a past life that warranted this kind of pain? Should I just go back and let them finish me off? As I was crying and feeling sorry for myself, I saw a figure approaching. I literally had no fight left in me, so I said a little prayer and hoped that I would go to Heaven after he murdered me.
Brad POV
I approached Allie cautiously. She and I have never met, and I did not want to scare her more than she already was. When I was close to her, I held up my hands so she could see I was at peace. She didn’t say anything, but she looked me up and down with questioning eyes. I said to her, “HI, my name is Brad and I work for Zander Meyers. I believe the two of you met the other day in the Diner.” “Yes, we did. How did you know that? He was one of my customers. But we don’t know each other. Can I ask why you are here and how you found me?” “ I am Zander’s closest friend and I own a Private Detective firm. He was intrigued by you at the Diner and wanted to get more information on you to see what kind of person you are. I know this all sounds confusing and a little creepy, but I assure you it comes from a good place. Zander is rarely interested in anyone, so I was surprised when he told me about you. I used your name and the address he gave me for you to track you down. I was staking out your apartment the day you were kidn*pped. I followed them here and stayed close by. When I saw you run out of the house and into the trees, I followed you. I really don’t mean you any harm and, if you will allow me too, I can take you somewhere safe.”
Allie's POV
I sat back and tried to digest everything he had just said to me. Could I trust him? Why was Zander’s fine rich ass intrigued by me? I am just a poor orphan with nothing to offer him. He must really be desperate or think that I am desperate, right? What the hell, what do I have to lose? If I stay here, the twins will find me and have their way with me. I will just have to trust Brad isn't a psychopath and leave with him.“Brad, I will go with you. I am too tired to argue, and I doubt I could fight you in the state that I am in. Did you park close by?” “Yes, I did and just know that you are safe now. If something happens to you, Zander and my wife Tiffany will have my ass. Come on, let’s get you out of this place. You need to be seen by a doctor as soon as possible.” “Thank you, Brad, I appreciate all of your help.” I don't know why this Zander would want to get to know me. He can literally have any women that he wants. But I am grateful for your help. Although once he finds out what a train wreck my life is, he is surely going to run for cover. A rich and successful man like him doesn't need a hot mess like me interrupting his peace. Brad helped me to the car and then drove me to a private hospital that I had never heard of. I was put into a wheelchair and whisked off to the back as soon as we arrived. The doctor did some x-rays, and the nurse cleaned my bruises. I had two cracked ribs, a black eye, and too many bruises for me to count. The evil bastards really did a number on me. I was put into a private room and given food and fluids because I was so dehydrated. After a shower, I started to feel a little bit like myself again, although I looked like death. I lay in the hospital bed thinking. I can’t believe Zander sent someone to spy on me. Why me? I am a nobody. He can literally have any women he wants. Plus, what he did is an invasion of my privacy. Hiring somebody to spy on me is insane. I want to be mad at him, but I can’t. If he hadn’t, I probably wouldn’t be alive right now. I closed my eyes and drifted off into a deep sleep.
Revon’s Pov
I came home after clearing my head. Viktor and I got into an argument after we left the basement with that b***h. I wanted my revenge for what she did to our father. He wanted to f**k her and maybe keep her around as a pet. He must be out of his damn mind. No wet p***y or fat ass is worth me forgetting the damage she did to our family. We were not seeing eye to eye, so I stormed out of the house before I did something that could be harmful to our relationship. When I walked into the house it was quiet. A little too quiet for my liking. Something definitely wasn’t right. I walked down the stairs looking for Viktor. I knocked on his room door, and he didn’t answer. I called his name and nothing. I cracked open the door and saw Viktor on his bed covered in blood and barely conscious. I grabbed my cellphone and called our family doctor. I hugged my brother's limp body and I vowed to him that whoever did this would pay. Viktor partially opened his eyes and said the one name that always set my blood on fire. “Aleshia.” After he said that, he passed out. I am going to murder that stupid b***h if it is the last thing that I f*****g do! Why does she continue to f**k with us? Hasn't she learned her lesson yet? I knew we should have tortured that b***h and then burned her alive. She ruined our father's life and tainted his legacy. My brother and sick obsession to breed with the w***e is not mine. I could never forgive her and the thought of her having my seed is worse. Why so we can have another murderous lying w***e like her. I wish she was never born and if my brother dies, I promise she will never see the light of day again. I will get my revenge this time. For my father and my brother, you just wait and see.
