Chapter 5

Author pov]

Rose woke up with a terrible headache, her legs were tied and so was her arms. She struggled to move, and could barely see a thing as her eyes were covered. She had been tied up to a chair in a place that was so cold she imagined she was indeed kept in a freezer.

"Help! Help please!" She cried with a shaky voice, No one spoke back to her making her realize she was probably alone. This didn't stop her from crying out for help in hopes of being heard.

Her pleas seemed to go unnoticed for hours so she eventually gave up.

Taking deep breaths she tried to calm herself by talking to herself. "Okay, this isn't happening...I'm in my silk sheets, happy... relaxed... with my scented candles..." She forces a smile on her face as the image of her large walk in closet appeared infront of her.

"I'll go take a nice warm bath and go on a long shopping trip."

She then heard someone chuckle behind her making her realize she was indeed not alone in the room.

"How much do you want?" Rose asked not caring who stood behind her or how much he actually from her.

"My dad could triple that amount or give you much more than you imagined just say the word...and I'll do it but please Just let me go..."

The person grabbed her by the hair making her Yelp. "You rich people think we all want your damn money!"

"Then what the hell do you want huh?!" she cries out not holding back her anger.

"You dare to talk to me like that?!"

He angrily shoves her making the chair fall. She fell on her side hard making her arm bleed.

"L-listen...j-just s-say what you want...I'll

...make sure you-"

She is suddenly pulled up again. "Shut up, you just wait and see what happens next!"

The door suddenly opened revealing three more guys. They all looked shocked.

"Oh my god Jacob what the hell are you doing to her? Rider will Kill you!" A new voice says surprsing rose.

"Why did you fool's leave her with him?!" Yelled another voice one.

" Damn we wanted to watch a game of so we thought I'd be okay." Explained someone else.

Someone else seems to walk in the room as everyone goes extremely silent.

"I didn't bring her here to be your punching bag."

Jacob groans in displeasure before eventually saying, "Fine! Just tell her to shut up."

Rose hears footsteps and assumes the angry guy had just left. She felt an odd sense of relief as it seemed they all didn't want to harm her.

She knew she was a business woman who could close a difficult deal. So now all she had to do was negotiate with whoever was incharge.

"Look...I think there's been some misunderstanding. can't we just talk?"

Someone pulls off her blindfold out of nowhere. Rose couldn't see at all and her eyes took time to adjust.

"There's nothing to negotiate, You are my bait...and that's all."

Rose recognizes the guy with long dark hair and intense blue eyes. He had the mosy beautiful face she'd ever seen yet he brought nothing but fear to her.

His tattoos covered both his arms and as he stood with his arms crossed glarring at Rose the muscles showed effortlessly thorough his black T.

"Well I....I don't understand." she weakly said causing the other two guys to laugh.

Rose was very confused, she wasn't sure why all this was funny or a joke to them.

Maybe this was all a sick joke. Maybe she was being pranked or something.

"Okay!" She says loudly. "Where's Ashton Kutcher? I'm getting pranked right?"

A guy with dirty blonde hair walks over to her. "I think she has a concussion or perhaps she's going crazy.Poor thing is talking nonsense..."

Rose looks at the one covered in tattoos. "You! You kidnapped me! Why? Huh why did you?"

He takes one look at her and says. "Don't worry you won't suffer for long because once I find out why you're important, you'll be dead in five days."

He leaves her shocked. Dirty blonde guy taps on her shoulder. "It's best you know how long you have left. It gives you time to think about what you've done."

"Let me go! I am damn important! dont you know who I am?"  She managed to say.

"Im sorry to break it to you. You're simply no one around here."

The guy with the tattoos words left her feeling like someone had just given her a huge slap across the face.

"Goodnight princess."

Rose watched as they left her bleeding and defenseless. She felt so helpless all she could do is cry.

"Those pshyco guys are definitely going to hurt me if i dont escape! I need to find a way out of here." she could only think to herself.

"Now that I've seen their faces...I'm sure I'm really doomed."

Nicole point of view}

classical music rang through my bedroom filling the room accompanied by my husband's footsteps.

I being so heavily pregnant sat in bed with my laptop on my lap to answer emails but I was too distracted to pay any attention on my screen because I watching as my husband walking up and down looking very worried.

I rolled my eyes knowing that he was worried about his whore. The intial hurt and anger that came with finding out your husband was busy with someone else was long gone. Now only hatred remained.

Charlie was a man of few words so a confrontation with him was honestly going to waste my time, so I decided that the best way to solve my problem was to rid myself of the woman.

"Charlie...come to bed my love. The baby misses your voice."

He turns to me. "Not now...I'm thinking!"

"what about so late at night?" I ask although I knew the reason. Someons had beat me to it...They got that rich bitch before my guy could.

"Nothing Nicole just go to bed first. I'll deal with other things." Charlie leaves without giving me a glance.

I took my phone texting my guy.

[Find her and end her!...]

A few seconds later Lex responds.

[Yes ma'am.]

Smirking I think of how good it would be seeing my cheating husband suffer from the loss of his lover.

Rose Point of view]

I sobbed almost the entire night which resulted in a splitting headache and swollen eyes, I had cried so much even ignoring my hunger, thirst and bruised arm.

My heart raced as I realized this kidnapping was very personal or Maybe these guys hated my father, nothing to do with money.

And with personal kidnapping, the victim usually dies.

I knew all this because my dad taught my brothers and I about what to do if anyone took us against our will. I guess all that training flew out the window because I froze like a deer caught in the middle of the road.

This entire situation kept me thinking of the mother I never knew. I began missing her.

She was kidnapped and kept hostage because some greedy people wanted money...The situation didn't end that great so my dad tried teaching us what we needed to know for such situations.

But right now fear and this chains stopped me from thinking straight or doing anything.

I wanted to live, so badly but I don't think it's possible...My family was probably looking for me but I wasn't stupid enought to believe they were worried about me.

They were probably faking everything for sympathy from the public.

Liam is probably pretending to be worried about by safety and is the one talking to the reporters on "behalf" of the family.

Acting like a loving older brother who didn't try drowning me when I was eight.

Dad named me the heir of our family company after I closed a huge deal at only twenty, Liam was absolutely angry, he had never liked me but after finding out i was the future CEO he lost it. Liam will never be CEO, Unless I'm dead...

Fear suddenly crept in. I felt scared thinking my family could be involved...No one can deny we are all not a unit. It's my fault too of course I'm not innocent.

Tears fall down my face. "I'm really all alone here..."

Daniel was my other brother who often kept to himself. He was an actor who barely spoke to anyone from our family.

He probably didn't care I was gone either...

He doesn't know me, nor does he consider me family.

Charlie Green is the only person I love. But even Charlie isn't fully mine. Iove him but he does have his own family.

Jennifer can't even be mentioned. I threw her with hot coffee the last time I saw her! she definitely wants me dead.

Realizing the sad truth that no one really loves me makes me physically ill. I didn't dare waste my time mentioning eric because i was only a bank to him.

There's something really heart breaking when you find out how alone you are.
