Only You

Chapter Sixteen

Fallon
I grab my cellphone and water bottle before heading out.

"I'll be back!" I call out before exiting the house.

I'm taking my daily late afternoon jog to the park and back. I set out and keep my breathing even. Once I hit the park, I jog down the trail as usual. It's a warm day so I sit down on a park bench to take a breather. I take a swig of water and cool down.

There's a rustle in the bushes and I turn. A squirrel runs up a tree. I shrug and turn back around. There's another rustle and I ignore. Stupid animals. Out of nowhere, a person covers my mouth with their hand, and hold a sharp object to my neck.

Panic is not the right word. I almost piss myself in fear.

"Scream and I'll slit your damn throat." The unrecognized male voice growls.

Tears roll down my face. I don't want to die. Not today. The man ties a scarf around my mouth and hands.

"Try to escape and I'll make you wish that your daddy never fxcked your mother." He says while picking me up and throwing me over his shoulder.

He reenters the forest and carefully walks through the wild vegetation. The tears won't stop coming out of my eyes. After ten minutes, we make it to an empty road. He puts me downs and grabs my upper arm. That's gonna leave a bruise.

He leads me to a black car with a New York license plate. I glance at his face, but I don't know who the mofo is. He throws me into the backseat and ties a scarf around my eyes. Smart.

He closes the door and hops into the driver's seat. I remain still and feel the car start then pull off. I nearly fall off the seat from the force. We drive for about a half hour before he stops. I hold my breath when I hear him get out. I hear people talking outside before my door open and I'm being pulled out again.

I'm picked up again and bought into a building. No, a home. The smell of cookies baking enters my nose. I'm so confused. I'm thrown onto the ground and all of my restraints are removed. I quickly sit up and I'm met face to face with the person I despise the most.

"Hello, Fallon." Donnell says from his couch,"Miss me?"

I keep my lips sealed as anger fires up inside of me. This can't be happening. I spit on his foot like a dumbass. His eyes widen then darken.

"Dumb hoe. You should've never done that."

He gets up and charges. He kicks me in the face then picks me up by my ponytail. I scream in pain. A trickle of blood comes out of my nose.

"Shut up!" He yells causes a little spit to fly out and fall on my face.

I whimper and bite my lip. His nostrils flare as he stares into my eyes.

"You got me running all over this damn country looking for your stupid behind. Worst mistake, baby." He says.

He lets me go and I drop to the floor.

"Take her to my room, and make sure she doesn't go anywhere." He says while walking back to his cushioned seat.

His two monkeys come over and pick my up my each arm. They lead me up the grand steps and down the hallway towards what I can guess is Donnell room. One of the guys stay in the room with me while the other stands outside in guard.

I stand up and walk to his mirror. I look a hot mess. My hair is gaga and there's dry blood on my nose. I grab a tissue and walk to the bathroom.

"Where are you going?" The guy asks gruffly.

"To clean up my face." I reply with an attitude.

I turn on the sink and wet the tissue. With shaky hands, I wipe my nose of the blood and throw the tissue away. Michael is probably panicking now. I walk out to the room and sit on a chair. I stare dead hard at the guy who bought me up here. Donnell is probably paying him mad money for this crap.

There's a knock at the door and he opens it. He's handed a package and is whispered something. He nods and smirks. Once the door is closed, he slides the box over to me.

"Boss said to put this on."

My heart sinks even more. Please God, no. I pick up the fancy box and unwrap it. It's only a black thong with a note.

"Get ready."

I shiver in fear and close my eyes. Why God? I stand up to head for the bathroom, but the man stops me.

"Nah, you change here where I can watch you. There's windows in the bathroom." He says.

Or you just wanna take a peek at my body, bro. I quickly change out of my clothes and into the thong. Since there's no bra, I cover my breasts with my hands. The guy has a huge grin on his face.

"Don't be shy."

"Shut up." I say.

Before he can come over and slap me, the door swings open and the devil walks in.
