Negotiation

Lena woke up with a splash of water poured onto her. She slowly blinked a few times before remembering the situation she was in.

Her hands and feet were tied tightly to a chair. Her breathing becomes heavy and her insides are shivering.

'What do I do?'

Lena tried her best to come up with a way on how to get of this… if she does get out. She looked around. She was in some type of warehouse. She can see that it was dark from the outside. When she was kidnapped, it was still bright.

"You are finally awake.." The man who poured water on her spoke.

"Leo? What are we going to do now?" Someone else spoke.

"Simple…" The man named Leo walked closer to Lena. He held her chin and turn her face side to side as he took a good look at her.

"We play… then we make sure the job is done by tonight. They can find her in the morning."

Lena's heart stopped. She doesn't mind dying… but they are not going to kill her? Do they want to play with her? No… anything but that. She rather died than be raped or tortured.

Her mouth was tied up but the man untied it, knowing that Lena wanted to say something. She breathed in some air to relax her.

"You… you have the wrong person."

"AHAHAHHAHAHAHA" The men laughed. There were 4 of them here.

"The Young Miss of the Shen family. I am pretty sure we have the correct person."

"I haven't done anything wrong! Why would you want to do this to me!"

"Tsk…" Leo pulled her chin up so she was looking at him. "Money."

"I can pay you more. I will double it." Lena quickly blurted out. This is what they do in the movies right? "Triple?"

"Young miss... Even if you pay us… there will be others who will take the job. Be glad it's us. We will be gentle to you."

'More? Who in God's name did you offend LENA?!' Lena was scolding herself.

"Who wants to go first?"

"Me."

"You? You're so ugly. I said we would be gentle on her. I am going first."

"Then why did you even ask?"

"Cuz I was being nice."

The men were discussing who was going to go first while Lena wished she was dead. She was too scared to properly think through the situation. She doesn't know how to fight.

Even if she can get her hands on a gun, she would never be able to kill anyone. The best thing she can do is to stall for time… for she hoped that Ming Zhao understood her clues and was looking for her at this moment.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath and prepared her mind and heart for what she was going to do next.

"I….. I will play with you."

Leo turned back to her attention. No one had ever said that to him. Is this woman crazy?

"You are going to do it anyways… so I should at least enjoy it too right?"

'Mother of all kings… I have no idea what I am doing.'

"I want a shower first." Lena declared.

Leo smirked. "What makes you think you are in a position to make demands?"

'Shit.. wrong move.' Lena screamed in her head.

"Then… can I at least be free? There are four of you here and only me. It's not like I can run out of here."

Leo looked at Lena. He was evaluating her strength and size. She was definitely a kicker before but there are four of them here.

And they needed her feet free anyways…
