Kidnapped

BEAUTIFIED FOR THE KILL

CARA'S POV

I couldn't believe my image as I looked at my reflection in the mirror. Is this really me? I look extremely beautiful and I just can't stop admiring myself. For a minute, I had forgotten the mess I was in, thoughts of escape had gone down the drain as I kept stirring at myself beaming with remarkable smiles.

A few minutes later, they tied my eyes with a cloth and told me to stand up. Next, I was told to raise my legs, which I did one at a time. Subsequently, my hands were raised and a cloth was worn on me. What kind of clothing they put on me, I don't know. My hair was then parked and tied with a piece of cloth. Deep inside, I was lost in fear. What are they doing to me? What is happening? I kept on asking no one in particular.

Finally, I heard Maryan say "all done, you guys can go now, I will take it up from here". I am terribly hungry as my stomach won't stop grumbling, but I dare not ask for food before they poison me. Instead, let me endure, I will not die.

Maryan; what is that sound that I hear? Could it be? Oh no! My boss will kill me if this is actually what it is. Looking at her " Miss, have you had any breakfast yet? She asked

Cara; "duh! Me? No, why? " I asked, all surprised. But instead of answering me, she ordered them all out to get me something to eat. I could sense that she was upset and angry. They all hurried out and came back immediately.

Maryan; still angry. I watched as they rushed out and came back immediately with toasted bread and tea. "Open your mouth miss" I said, and fed her gradually until I was satisfied that she had had enough.

Right now I feel so good, refreshed and energized, " It is time, I heard one of them say. The master will be waiting for us. Let us hurry. They all shouted. Gently, I was made to stand and the next I was already in a car heading to only God knows where. The car came to a halt and I felt a hand take care of my fingers before I was told to step down from the car carefully, which I did.

I started hearing voices and shouts " Who are they killing now? I brushed off the fears and horrible images and thoughts that had begun creeping over me, digging deep holes in my stomach. After calming my nerves, I took in the environment and discovered that the people there were actually happy and began to relax. I was led to only God knows where, then my eyes were uncovered to discover that I was standing in front of an alter with a man standing beside me, full of smiles and hope.

A beautiful, good-looking young man

The priest; "Do you accept this young lady as your lawful wedded wife?

I looked up and saw the priest, but who is getting married and to who? I used that opportunity to look around and saw several faces. My confusion settled and skyrocketed when I saw my mum there smiling like nothing had happened. Shouldn't a mother be worried that her baby was kidnapped and brought here? For what purpose or was she part of the plan from the onset? I was still in deep thoughts when I heard the priest again, then I looked at myself, God it is me. I was dressed in a beautiful multi million dollar wedding gown, very beautiful and costly. I looked at the man beside me again and still can't recognize him nor remember ever meeting such a beautiful man before.

Cara, looking at him pissed, " Are you playing tricks on me? I asked but he didn't talk. I took one step back, then another and was about to take the third one when his hands caught mine, stopping me from my movement. No escape for me.
