Chapter 11: Evelyn

1743 Words
Evelyn's p.o.v. I sighed, finally putting my last piece of clothing in this tiny maroon suitcase. I zipped it and crouched down on my bed, it made that usual creak sound as my body landed on it. I stared in front of me, at my tiny bag on the ground...it had my entire life in it. All my cheap clothes from the theft store, all my books I'd worked my butt off to purchase...the necklace Mr. Black had gifted me last night and also the goodbye gifts Oli and Ash brought me this morning. They both are happy that I'm finally leaving this s**t hole. But I am not. I am terrified. Last night was a disaster, Silas and Sebastian told me they adopted me but there was no foster care officer...just their lawyer with a piece of paper. And then, I saw Bob with a suitcase filled with money... Judging from that greedy bastard's face I'm sure he'd never seen this much money in his entire life Aunt Melanie was glad too. She was panicked at first but after seeing money... I'd never seen her this happy before. She said it will help Austin's future, but I'll be a fool to believe that. Bob is going to spend the entire money on drugs and weapons. I am sure of it. Nothing is going to change here, no matter how much money they got. When I asked Silas about this, he told me he just paid off my Mamma's debt, nothing else. But I knew better... He purchased me from Bob. That good looks are not going to fool me. I was so stupid to get distracted at first...making that daddy joke in my mind. What the hell was I even thinking?! " Evelyn..." The loud voice from downstairs snapped me out of my thoughts. They are here. I sighed and stood up, " Yeah, just coming Aunt.", I shouted back and picked up my bag. There is nothing I can do... I'm leaving one monster, only to trap with the other two. Who knows what they will do to me? I clenched my bag tightly to my chest as I walked downstairs. At least with Bob, I knew what's coming and when. I knew when to hide, and when to close my eyes and let everything happen before he does worse. But with them... I have no idea what will happen. They didn't even tell me where they are taking me, just said that its a ' surprise'. I don't want surprises. I don't even like them. When I finally reached the doorstep, everything was blurred. Hugging Aunt Melanie, kissing Austin...glaring at Bob. And then finally sitting inside an expensive-looking car with Silas and Sebastian with me inside it. Everything was numb. I felt like some lifeless thing getting sold to the highest bidder. Soon, the car stopped and we came out. Silas was trying to talk to me during the entire ride. But I was too depressed to even look at him, let alone reply. He thought I was shy or scared. And promised to tell me everything once we reached home. But I am not going to fall for his charming tricks again. He hadn't even asked me what I want...just barged into my life and took me as if I am his property, not a living breathing human. The chilly air embraced my body, and the sweet aroma of fruity and floral scents permeated the atmosphere as we walked through the entrance of an enormous glass structure. Despite the sign outside indicating it was an airport, I couldn't help but notice the absence of fellow passengers, only a handful of guards patrolling the vicinity. It appeared to be a secluded, private area. And now I am scared more. I tilted my head and look up at their stern faces...They walked as if they own this place. Or maybe they did, judging the way every staff member nodded and smiled at them. What these two are, part of some powerful terrorist group...or human traffickers perhaps? Maybe serial killers? I gulped, should I ask these cops to help? I thought as I noticed guards coming our way. But then they looked towards us and smiled. No, not at me. At my new monsters. f**k. I am doomed, there is no way these cops will help me, the way they are talking to them, looked like they worked for Silas...or maybe Sebastian? Which one of them is boss here, or do they work for someone else? I groaned at myself, irritated that I can't find anything. So, I just put my head down and followed them quietly. After the realization that there is no escape, I even stopped predicting, why use my mind when it's not going to help me. My head rested back on the headboard as I crouched down on my seat, with Silas and Sebastian in front of me. There is no one else, only some flight attendants. It's a f*****g private jet! But again, I am too depressed to enjoy it right now. I didn't even look at them...not even a glance, even though I can feel their eyes on me all this time. And I think Sebastian even touched my hair. Creeper. And they are still staring at me, I can feel it, two pairs of dark eyes...practically digging holes in my body. But I don't know why I feel all tingly, I don't know why their eyes are making me all nervous, in a good way. Don't know why I liked being watched by them, even though I hate men. But still, my body is reacting as if it's becoming a slave to their gazes. I'm pathetic. I wrapped my arms around my torso and stared out of the window instead, giant clouds gleaming at the orangish glow of sunrise. I just want to fly above it, like this plane... " What did he do to you?" Hunn... I finally shifted my eyes hearing Silas. He was right in front of me, green eyes staring back at me, head tilted slightly as he watched my face as if figuring out a riddle. I frowned, " Who..." " Don't lie to us, kid.", Sebastian interrupted, his voice a lot harsher than Silas'. I glanced at him, wanting to punch his ugly beautiful face. But then my eyes moved lower on their own, he is not wearing a coat today, just a white shirt, clenched tightly to his body like a second skin, sleeves rolled up to his elbow, showing his lickable blue veins. I could even see the outline of his biceps. And these broad shoulders of his! I just want to touch it, roam my hand on his hard chest to his defined torso, lick his smooth tanned skin...wait. I abruptly shifted my eyes to my legs. What the hell I was thinking? Am I starting to suffer from Stockholm syndrome now, already?! And if Silas was really telling the truth then they are my guardians, thinking of them like this is inappropriate. My mind is f****d up. " Are you mute or what?" " Sebastian...". Silas elbowed Sebastian when he taunted me at my lack of reply. I hadn't spoken a word to them since morning. What am I supposed to say anyway... " Ignore him, he is an idiot." I looked up at Silas, he was already staring at me though, with that same gentle smile and cute dimples. " But you can tell us anything, okay?", he added softly, but the green of his eyes looked like some warning. Despite his gentle smile and soft voice...these dark eyes, look demanding and dangerous, making his smile look like some fake mask to hide the real him. " If someone had hurt you...just tell us the names and we will take care of it.", he said, leaning down a little so our faces were right in front of each other, and his emerald eyes were piercing right through me. Demanding and destructive... Silas felt a lot more dangerous than Sebastian right now. Even Bob was scared of this man... I've to be careful. I gulped, " Take care of it...like murder them?", I asked, trying to sound as brave as I could. But Silas laughed now, his voice felt like some seductive music, and god his face, the way it lit up, like a moon in a dark sky... Why the hell does he has to be this...this delicious! I just want to cup his face and suck his lips. f**k me. He leaned back now and shook his head, still chuckling at my words, " No...no, we are good people.", Silas replied. " We never kill anyone, you don't have to be scared of us.", he added. But Sebastian just snickered and coughed like they are making some secret joke. Weirdos. And it's not like I believed him anyway. But I shouldn't show him my weakness either. I've to act tough. I folded my arms over my chest and looked at their taunting faces, " Oh, well I'm not scared of you.", I smirked, " I'd seen worse..." Silas raised his brow at me, his face too serious now, " Like what?", he asked. I shifted in my chair and looked away from his face, the way Silas was staring at me...with concern, for a moment I really believed it. He was just faking it, just like his gentleness. I am not going to fall for his act. All men are the same...like Bob and George, they are only going to hurt me sooner or later. " Silas asked you something, Evelyn.". I clenched my knuckles tightly, hearing my name from his mouth. My thighs pressed together on their own. Why...why it felt so good! " Reply him.", he ordered, and I felt my entire body shiver as if every fiber of my being wanted to please him and do what he said. So, I did what he asked, I told them what I suffer all these years... " Like, there are a lot worse things than death.", I mumbled lowly, and shifted my eyes outside the window, not sure what will I do if I look at them. Why are they affecting me so much?! I hate men. But these two felt safe, when I knew they might be worst than every man I'd ever met? Still...they felt like home. But they shouldn't.
