I felt slightly nauseous from the strong drink I had at the new bar…
Note to self never let Ludo choose the drink that she created ever again. She can drink me into debt, holy shit man.
“Oh, you're awake. I just woke up from my nap not too long ago too. Here I brought you a water bottle.” She was just walking in so out of curiosity I asked her where she slept and she pointed to the chair beside my bed.
“Right there. Look It's my fault, I should have ordered something generic or lighter. I was careless. You might have actually gotten sloppy drunk on family day, in front of everyone If I didn't tell him not to give you any more.”
“That was a strong drink!” 
It’s never been so hard to get what I want especially when the person who I'm talking to is alone. This woman has been able to avoid close calls multiple times. We haven't gotten rusty… she’s unusually guarded.Malikai and I have been taking women off the planet for three years. We've had plenty of run-ins with authorities but never once gave them a reason to chase us. So the fact that this woman is still breathing two days later only aggravates me and has worn Malikai’s patience thin. We want her dead… Malikai wants to chop her up and scatter her all over that annoying man's yard, but admittedly I still want to have my way with her before then. For some reason I feel like once she has some aphrodisiac in her… she’ll be the most lively prey we’ve ever toyed with. With all the shit we’ve been going through to get her alone…
Zeke called the monster and the princess to the house while I stopped my nose from leaking and leaving evidence. Whoever that assistant was… was hired for a reason that man took a statue to the head and punched me square in the nose… Now I’m no doctor but his skull must be made of fucking steel cause no normal man would be standing. Thank goodness Zeke came in and gave me a chance to nail him in the temple.When I got my nose to stop running I took a bowl of the Princess’ dinner and was told to find the surveillance room and do some damage, which I did. I stole everything I touched and took everything I could. Then it was time to sit and wait for the couple to come home.We sat in our car three blocks away from the condo with the front door and gate in full view. I sat in the passenger seat combing out
It’s cold… It’s cold and dark… I remember a day similar to this. I think it was actually the day Gray and I met. I was beaten half to death by my father after returning home from the Marines for good, then I was kicked out with only the belongings I brought back with me. I had broken bones from being stomped on and kicked and I was bleeding from my thigh and my head.It was a miserable rainy night so I walked twelve blocks with all my stuff so I could attempt to sleep under the bridge but… someone was already sleeping there and instead of trying to help me or being sympathetic… They robbed me of one of my duffle bags. So I gave them both and walked out from under the bridge and hobbled to the point with the longest drop. I stood there replaying the shitty month I had because those were going to be the moments that push my decision.
I pulled into the wide-open gate that normally is closed, parked, and ran up the stairs and straight through the wide-open door to see Julian collapsed on the kitchen floor. I bent down and checked for a pulse. He was still breathing so that means that he was only out cold. I laid him down in a way that he could get air in and out better. Then I pulled out my phone and told Ludo to check for bleeding while I called the police and ran to check the surveillance recordings but when I got in the room I froze… Where are all my keyboards and mice? I rolled my eyes and moved to press the buttons on the system itself and noticed all of the buttons and knobs were gone. I paced around angry and confused while filling the police in on the details they needed to arrive and begin investigating.
I stormed into the car and unintentionally ground my teeth in annoyance as I waited for Julian to join me in the car. Due to his concussion, I can't drive too fast, or else any hard stops I do might hurt him or at the very least make his head spin. I wanted to find her… I wanted to speed to the shopping district, find them, and take them off the face of the earth. But I need to think. Breathe. Then proceed… A dumb approach is most likely going to end very badly. “Sir, we will find her.” It sounded like he was assuring me but it only irritated me. Why her? Why now? Why here? What are they doing to her right now? And… is… is she alive? “I know…” My voice was rougher than intended.
My eyes fluttered open and closed a few times before they fully focused on nothing in particular. My lazy heavy eyelids were not willing to open further than halfway. My body was heavy and my movements were lethargic and slow. I’ve never felt so slow before… Or was the world going ninety miles per hour… At this point, I couldn’t tell anymore. The last thing that I could remember hmm… The last thing that I could remember was falling asleep in the hospital. Now having a tad more energy I glanced around and my heart sank… This wasn't my room and it definitely wasn't Gray’s room. I sat up and quickly learned that I wasn't free within the room either. When I sat up too fast my throat was jerked back and when I went to touch my neck and figure out what was pullin
Zeke pulled us into the not so abandoned factory and parked the car in the cage. I got out and started to set up the room and the chains where the princess will be locked up for a while. The glass box was now set up and ready for her. I smiled deviously, I couldn't help but feel eager to be balls deep in her. I walked back over to the cage to try and locate where Zeke slithered off to. Since I didn't find him near or in the cage I knew he was still measuring the aphrodisiac. So I walked into the back room where he normally kept his needles and gloves and all the other sciency shit he owns. Silently smiling as an interesting thought crossed my mind. “With or without?” Zeke jumped a bit not realizing I was there and shot me a look of confusion. “What?”
Was this a dream? I have to be dreaming… I must have passed out after Malikai stuck me with that last needle because there’s no way that Gray was here so soon… Did he really come here to save me? Was I really that important to him? No way… Right? I watched through dazed unfocused eyes from the floor, my head lifelessly resting against the bed while I watched ‘Gray’ choke out Malikai. There’s no way… That last needle was something else, something different… It had to have been… ‘Gray’ aggressively dropped Malikai’s unconscious body as he slowly tiptoed closer to me. No! Stay back! That’s not Gray! You’re not my Gray! Go away!
