Jason paced the floor of the cabin in agitation as he moved from the room to the kitchen to the windows to check outside and back to the room again.Cain sat at the table and was looking at him through slitted eyes “I believe I am going to faint first from your pacing before this fever decided to take me”“No, you won’t,” Jason said distractedly. “Once we can get out of here, I will get you the necessary herbs and you will be fine in no time”“You know about medicine too?” Cain asked in astonishment.“What?” Jason finally paid him attention. He was thinking before and had not thought of what he said. He looked at Cain blankly for a moment then remembered what he was talking about “Oh yes, I am skilled in eastern medicine. Fever is nothing at all compared to what I can cure but I need the right herbs which these bastards wouldn’t let us have. That would change soon though…” he trailed off as he added in thought “If the bastard did not rat me out”All he had used for the wimpy manager w
Jason couldn’t believe it. Yet as the pickup ambled on the potholed road, there was no doubt that that had worked. Jason blamed himself a little that he had not thought of doing that before. Instead of lying low in wait for the best time to act, who knew how faster he might have found the girl? He might have rounded this up earlier and be back in Dengal by now.He could be getting acquainted with his newfound wealth now and getting incorporated into corporate life. Yes, he finally admitted to himself. He could be well on his way to courting the capable and ethereally beautiful Charlotte as well. Jason had finally admitted what that strange feeling he felt with the acting CEO that day meant. He wanted that woman and he intend to have her. Right after he came out of this in one piece.“The end justifies the means after all,” he thought to himself as he looked out the window. Everywhere was pitch black though and he could barely pick up anything beyond what the headlights of the car we
Nothing was ever easy.Jason still had no idea what happened to his device and even though he suspected that someone might have jammed the tracking device, he had no idea who it could be.“Could they be on to me?” He thought as he stood in the overly large, masochistically decorated living room. The archway at the entrance gave the house a palatial feel that invited the curious to explore but his nerves were too strung tight for him to indulge.Cain had no such restriction though, he gaped to his heart’s content. “It must be good to be rich, don’t you think?” he asked nudging Jason slightly.Jason nodded and kept his gaze straight on. A man came to meet them after the driver dropped them off, still without saying a word and he turned the car away. Jason wondered if he was going back to the farm. He had not had the time to think much about that though when the man who was formally dressed even though it was already 9 pm came to receive them.“Come with me,” he said as he took them into
“Let me go!” the girl spat as she was thrown on the floor by the two men that brought her and she struggled to loosen the blindfold on her hand. the sound was muffled behind the gag on her mouth though.Her eyes were blindfolded as well and all she could see was the light showing behind her eyes. She knew he was somewhere in the room. The bastard thought it funny to stalk her first before he removed her blindfold.Then he would want to touch her! Then he would laugh cruelly when she tried to run! Atimes he would grab her and rub her against himself. The bastard! She had been lucky that it had never gone beyond that. Most of the girls she knew had not been as lucky as she was. Most of them went away innocent and unaware and by the time they came back, they would be something else.“Well, I am not going to allow it!” She thought fiercely as she squirmed around. She toppled over while she was trying to remove the duct tape used on her hands. Frustration made her miserable.She had never
Millicent almost screamed in frustration as the bus carrying them away entered a pothole and she knocked her head against the girl next to her. The youngest, weakest girl among them huddled in Millicent’s arms at the disturbance.“Sorry, Ashley”The girl did not respond though and she only burrowed deeper in Millicent’s arms. She had been like that since she was carried away by the men about a week ago.All she murmured with a glassy look on her face when she got back was; “He told me it was a different type of candy”Nothing else and Millicent told the girls to leave her be. Most of the girls knew what happened to her though, so asking was pointless. Ashley stopped talking altogether two days later when they came for her again. Millicent was frustrated that she couldn’t do anything. She was more frustrated at the moment by what was happening. Just the night before, she thought hope was here already and she would finally be rescued, but now?The men woke them up during the night with
Jason’s heart skipped a bit as she wondered if this was it. He looked aside and realised that Cain did not realise the danger they were in yet as he was still looking out the window excitedly as if he wanted to memorise the scenery in his heart. Slasher smiled when Jason gave him a defiant look. He moved the gun towards Jason and Jason prepared to fight. “Sorry about that” Slasher said abruptly before opening his car compartment to store the gun “Didn’t realise it was loaded” He said simply and he started the car. Jason felt slightly faint as the blood that had rushed into his head rushed back down and the adrenaline in his body churned. What just happened? He knew he might just be paranoid because of the jammer but he could have sworn that Slasher deliberately toyed with him. “What happened?” Cain asked when he heard what Slasher said and he turned away from the window. “It was…” Jason looked at Cain’s cheerful face and decided that there was no point scaring him. Slasher had
Outside the slaughterhouse, an unmarked car parked some distance from the building. Two black-clad figures were in the car. One at the wheel and the other on the phone.“Yes, get in line fast and make sure none of them could get out. I don’t want any mess up or your ass would be roasted. You hear me?”The person on the other side answered affirmatively and she disconnected the call.“I still think we should hold on, you know. The leader might not be so pleased that we decided to bust his operation like this” Simon said as he raised the binoculars to his eyes. He could see their men getting into place.“And how often have I been wrong when I followed my instinct?” Andrea asked her eyes on the phone, she waited for the signal they agreed on.“Not once but…”“But nothing, love” Andrea said with a hand over his lips. “I am sure there was an issue. That tracker didn’t just stop working. I coupled that very one myself and I will not give him a defective device when I know just how important
It all happened so dizzyingly fast that Jason couldn’t comprehend it or maybe it had to do with his rapid loss of blood. One moment, Carlisle was advancing on him with his smirk in place. Jason thought he might want to take him out of sight since he presumed that he was unconscious already. He would never know the answer to that. The moment Slasher opened the door and barked at the worker whose frightened face Jason could see from his prone position, the man was cast aside and a hand shot Slasher. Slasher dropped unceremoniously on the floor and Carlisle wheeled back “What is…” the gun in his hands went clattering off as Jason grabbed him from behind to prevent him from shooting Andrea. Carlisle was caught off guard for a moment but in the next seconds, he jabbed his elbow into Jason’s stomach. Right, where he knifed him before and the latter went down. “This is my territory!” Carlisle shouted, his eyes looking a bit crazed as he turned back to Jason. “Nobody messes up my plan
