“Please, Paul. Let my hands go.” I muster up the courage to kiss him back with some form of energy, in hopes that he will release me, and he groans before stepping away.
“Sweet fuck, you are delicious. I bet that cunt of yours is just as sweet. I’m a lucky man.” He makes no attempt to hide as he adjusts his pitiful erection, and I want to cut it off. “I can’t trust that you won’t burn me like you did my son. Get comfy, love. You will be in those shackles until I can trust you.”
I glare at him, making him laugh before he leaves me alone again. The sound of the locks echoing behind him is a stark reminder that I’m royally fucked until Dad and Gramps get here.
I don’t have an ounce of pity for anyone getting in Lucifer’s way, and these idiots asked for it.
I don’t know if you can hear me, but we’re coming, baby. Hold the fuck on and fight.
I hear Colten’s voice in my head, and release the tears I was holding back.
They’re on their way, and I can still hear them.
Me: I miss you, and I love you guys so fucking much.
O: Are you okay? If he’s touched you, I will make him bleed so slowly he will suffer for weeks before he takes his last fucking breath.
A shiver of anticipation runs down my spine when I hear Orion’s vow of love and protection.
B: We’re coming, beautiful. Hang on, and be strong.
C: We love you so fucking much, Harleigh.
Me: I’m s—scared.
C & O: FUCK!
B: Stay strong. We love you, and we will get you back soon. Are you alone?
Me: Yeah. I am now.
O: Did he touch you?
I whimper into the quiet room as my mind flashes back to the feeling of his mouth on mine, and bile rises to my throat again, threatening to leave my body. I hate this bastard for everything he’s done to Addy, and I really hate him for daring to think he could touch me against my fucking will.
Me: Just get here. Please.
O: Son of a bitch! Baby, hold on. We’re coming.
I tune them out after that, so I can focus on the power bubbling up inside of me.
Closing my eyes, I focus on the heat of the power building until I feel a slight tremor beneath the chair, and let out a breath of relief.
Me: I have an idea. How long will you guys be?
B: Not long, beautiful.
O: What’s the idea?
Me: I think I can use enough of my energy to create a power surge. The place will be dark, and they won’t see it coming.
C: It could work.
B: Wait until we get there and talk to your Dad and Lucifer. We shouldn’t make any sort of plans without them.
I take a deep breath and release it slowly, knowing he’s right. Dad and Gramps need to both be in on the plan.
Me: Let me know when you guys have a plan together, and if I can help.
C: We will, baby. Almost there.
O: I promise you, baby. Him and Darren will pay for this. It won’t be a quick death for either of them.
Me: Do what you have to in order to get me the fuck out of here, but don’t hurt Darren if you can help it. I have a feeling things aren’t as they seem.
O: You have too big of a heart, baby. He growls at me, and I wince.
C: Don’t worry. We will keep your kitty under control.
B: Be there soon, Harleigh. I love you. We love you.
Everything once again goes silent as they stop talking to me, and I close my eyes to try and remain calm as I was for them.
Orion
“Her kitty. Really?” I look over at Colt with annoyance.
I’m fine with her calling me kitty if she wants to, but these guys? Hell no. And the fact he thinks he can control me is laughable.
