Obscured Possession

Chapter 9

mine to protect her.

"No!"

The last thing I remember is a strange burning pain on the upper part of my abdomen, and then, the peaceful darkness engulfed my senses...

(3rd person's POV)

Vienna's eyes widened when she saw a pool of blood forming underneath the girl's body. Sure, she was supposed to kill the mother but the daughter is off limits. Julian, the boy who helped her with this and the one who sent all these henchmen made it a point that she shouldn't touch the girl.

"No!" Emma wailed. "What have you done to my daughter?!" She started crying. "Helena! Please, wake up, my darling!"

"Scare her but don't you dare touch her. Try to put your filthy hands on her neck and I will not hesitate to kill you." His steel gray eyes shone with ice cold ruthlessness.

He may be a lot younger than her but for some reason, there's something in him that makes her scared for her own life.

She dropped the gun she was holding and ran out of the dark and dank cell to call out for help.

"The girl! Help the girl!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. She saw a man running towards her. "What happened?" He asked.

"The girl... He will kill me..." She muttered and shook her head.... "Go to her..." Her lips trembled as she shook with fear, all thoughts of revenge gone.

The man ran towards the cell but Vienna continued running towards the exit. "He will kill me... He will kill me..." She sobbed. "I don't want to die... No..." She entered her car and started driving away as fast as possible.

(His POV)

I was about to start driving towards the old hotel where they kept Helena and Emma when my phone started ringing and I frowned when I saw that it was Lawrence, the leader of the men I sent to 'help' Vienna kidnap Helena and Emma.

"What is it?" He asked as he drove leisurely.

"Boss, I'm afraid there's a problem."

"Problem?" I asked rather calmly. "I thought that you already reported earlier that everything is going according to plan."

"Vienna shot the girl." The man said.

I stopped the car. "What do you mean she shot her?!" I roared.

"B-Boss, I think that the woman was rather... unstable." The man's voice is laced with fear.

Good. Fear me.

"Where is the b***h now?" I clenched my knuckles. I would kill her the moment I see her.

"S-She escaped." Coward b***h.

"And Helena?" I tilt my head to the side and watched the heavy traffic on the other lane.

"I already called Dr. Crawford to take the bullet out of her body. It was quite fatal, nearly hit the girl's heart... But she is still alive, boss. We already moved her upstairs."

"And the mother?"

"She was hysterical but we managed to sedate her."

"Good. I'm on my way. I want you to find Vienna and bring her back. You can do anything to her but keep her alive."

"Yes, boss."

(Helena's POV)

I woke up with a throbbing head and a burning sensation on my chest. I tried to move and open my eyes but everything seems so blurry.

"Looks like my patient is already awake." An old man said beside me.

"How is she?" A younger man asked. His voice sounded too damn familiar but I can't put my finger on finger on who is it.

"She's out of the danger zone now although she won't be able to move or use her senses fully for a few hours because of the drugs that I used in her during the operation."

I tried to open my mouth to speak but it felt like it was stuffed with cotton and only a moan came out of my lips.

"Shh... Don't try to talk, my darling. Try to take a rest... I'm sorry for this one, my love. It was a strategic misfire on my part." I felt someone hug me tightly. "Oh, I miss doing this so much..." He kissed my lips chastely.

My heart started to race as his identity dawned on me. I tried to lift my hands to push him away from me but I can't move.

"Sedate her." I heard Julian order the old man.

I felt something sharp prick my arm, and then there is nothing again.

(His POV)

"Boss, we already found her." Lawrence approached me.

"Where is she?"

"At the basement. My men kinda had some fun with her though so she ain't that presentable anymore."

"I don't want presentable anyway so don't worry. I just want her alive for now. I'll kill her anyway."

"How about the girl and her mother?"

"Take them back to their home. Killing Emma isn't necessary anymore."

I started walking towards the basement. I stopped in front of the makeshift cell. I eyed the battered and naked woman inside. I put my hands on my pocket and smirked at her as she looks at me with fear on her eyes.

"How are you, Vienna?"
