<<ANGIE>>
My stomach was turning every moment I heard the auctioneer or whatever you call those guys, sell an item because I knew that the last item to be sold would be me.
That was it, since I was not able to think of how to kill Adrian. I decided that before whoever I was sold to, would never get the chance to be with ae. For I had planned on killing myself tonight.
I feel stupid and like I'm a disappointment and that I have failed my brother, the club, Luke and James. I am too weak. I couldn't avenge them. Am I being selfish for wanting to commit suicide since I can't kill Adrian?
I don't know, maybe that makes me weak or selfish or stupid. But I have NOTHING left to live for.
Everybody I loved that was close to me has been killed. And I REFUSE to become somebody's sex slave. My body belongs to two people. Myself and James. And since I no longer have him anymore, there is nothing left inside of me that's alive. The light I had, is gone.
In fact, the best way to describe how I feel, is what was once a beautiful enchanted looking forest along with a beautiful meadow, has all died and or withered away. There are just reminders of how amazingly happy I was and how beautiful it was. But now everything is covered in darkness. The darkness lingers over all that was once beautiful.
I'm quickly pulled up from my chair by a firm grip on my arm and am snapped back to reality, as I notice Adrian pulling me hard by my arm up to the person who is doing the bidding and asks him to leave and step aside. I quickly go back into my darkness that's inside of me.
I don't really pay any attention to what Adrian is saying. And though I hear a bunch of male voices call out numbers, which I am assuming are figures of how much they are asking for me, I can't help but want to almost throw up in my mouth. Which in reality I would rather puke on Adrian.
After a moment, I realize that nobody is talking. The room has gone silent. Have I been sold? And to who?
Then I hear Adrian say, "Well, well, well. Didn't think you were alive!"
That's when I looked over and saw him standing right in front of me.
Am I dreaming? I have to be. He's supposed to be dead. Tell me I'm dreaming. This can't be true.
"Luke?" I mumble under my breath before starting to cry.
He smiles up at me that let's me know I'm not dreaming. That this is real.
I want to smile, but can't. He now gives me a look that I've seen before when were little and were playing hide and seek with my brother. It was the look that assured me he had a plan. A plan that was going to work. I smile back at him.
Though I quickly begin to wince as soon as I feel Adrian's hand grip tighter around my arm.
"You've got some nerve coming in here." Adrian begins to threaten Luke.
Luke chuckles. "Me? Tell me, Adrian, have you told these people how you really make your money? How you really 'earned' your spot as the leader? By murdering not just Tucker, but both his and Angie's parents as well and how you are using her to get their inheritance.?" Luke has a grin on his face. "Oh, not to mention, also, shooting James."
Adrian grips on to my arm tighter. I feel more disgusted than anything. He also killed my parents to become leaders of the gang? Now I'm filled with rage. Fuck killing myself, I'm fucking killing this motherfucker. Though I notice everyone staring at Adrian now like they are confused, but mostly wanting to kill him for killing my parents. Apparently they were well respected by everyone. Even the Cartel. Which I found out as a little girl, NEVER fuck with them. Which I wouldn't anyways, I grew up playing with most their kids.
Adrian smiles away his fear at the moment.
"Very clever. So I killed them so fucking what? They were getting in the way of what was rightfully mine. They kicked me out of the club. Then come to find out, they made James the president of the club. I couldn't believe they had the nerve to do such a thing. So I got rid of them." Adrian still avoids eye contact. Even with his men in his gang. For they now are all looking at him as we all are. As wanting to kill him. Guess I will just have to take a number.
The next thing that happens, is I hear guns being cocked as they are also being pointed all up towards Adrian. Especially, Luke's.
"There is only ONE way out of this for you, Adrian. And it's not gonna be pretty." Luke says.
"Oh really?" Adrian says while pulling out his gun, cocking it and then placing against the side of my head.
"Let her go. The place is surrounded and nobody is going to protect you." Luke tells him.
"See, that is where you're wrong." Adrian grins and then backs up, still pointing the gun at my head and motions with his head to his men, for them to kill Luke and anybody that gets in the way.
We back up some more and that's when I hear the first gunshot go off. I quickly see that Luke had just shot one of Adrian's guys and then everyone else begins to shoot.
While a shootout is happening, I'm trying to duck while Adrian's pulling my arm.
He starts pulling me upstairs with him while he's shooting people at the same time.
"Luke!!" I scream out several times.
The next thing I know, Adrian is opening a door and locking it shut behind us, while still holding onto my arm.
We are in his office. He starts walking towards his desk, pulls a key out from his pocket and starts unlocking a drawer. When he opens it up, I notice jewelry, stacks of cash and folded up papers. Which he grabs and throws down onto the desk.
Then he pushes me forcefully to sit down in the chair behind the desk, holds down my hand and then unfolds the papers and slams down a pen on top of them. Then grabs my hair and pulls my head back roughly.
"You are going to fucking sign these papers and give me the fortune your parents left you, along with everything they owned, including property. Or else!" He threatens me.
"No! You're going to have to kill me cause I will never sign them. You will never get them you son-of-a-bitch!" I scowled at him.
Which obviously, in return made him more upset.
He then pulls my head harder and back more and leans down almost close enough to kiss me. But just tells me, "You are going to sign this! Now fucking sign it!" He then forces my head forward to where I'm looking at the papers and I start to pick up the pen, then without hesitating, I quickly jam the pen in the middle of his hand as it's on the desk, trying to hold the papers still so I could sign.
While holding his now bleeding hand, I quickly push him away and make my way towards the door and try to open it but can't cause it's locked. As I try to unlock it, I feel him grabbing my hair again and pulling on it hard, making me scream in pain and turns me quickly around as he slaps me really hard to where I almost fell to the floor but he was holding me.
He then grabs my throat and begins choking me and I start hitting him trying to hurt his hand and I even try poking his eyes out with my thumb but he turns away before I get the chance to.
Then right as I begin feeling light headed and thinking this is it. This was how I was going to die. The door busted open.
It was Luke, Derrick and all the guys. Then I saw him James come walking through everybody, pointing a gun at Adrian.
"Wow. Now this has got to be the best party ever. I should've made it a walking dead theme or some shit. Man, I would've sworn I killed you." Adrian says.
I look at James as Adrian loosens up on his grip and I'm trying to catch my breath quickly. And all I can think about is how happy I am that this is happening. That James is alive.
James gives me a genuine 'I'm sorry' look and an 'I Love You' look. Then quickly turns to look at Adrian while tightening his lips together and squeezing tighter and tighter on the trigger.
"I'm only going to tell you once, Adrian. Let her go!" James says.
James "Oh my god. Can't you think of saying something else?" Adrian laughs at his lame comeback/joke or whatever he thought of it as being.
"I swear to..." James begins but get's cut off by Adrian.
"I'm getting bored." Adrian says while getting ready to shoot me. To which I mouth 'I Love You' to James and close my eyes so that I didn't have to see him watch me looking at me while I was shot. Though before closing my eyes, I gave him a smile to let him know that everything's gonna be okay. To which his eyes began to water and then as soon as I closed my eyes, tears ran down my face and that's when I heard a loud gunshot!
BANG!
