•••QUINN•••
I was in the kitchen exactly 3:15am in the morning, I was eating Erwin’s left takeout after having them microwaved payback for eating my snacks and picking on me.

In exactly 06:45am we needed to be on the road to Denver for the mission which was likely to begin later tonight but the guys had other missions in the morning.

I sat down slowly eating thinking of how to probably escape, I’ve been hiding for a few weeks so the Cunningham’s should probably forget about me and I don’t want to get used to my present surrounding.

My mind flashed back to the minor incident leading to Seth’s black eye, I should have given him two if I knew he was going to be a jerk and force me to go undercover as a stripper.

Haven walks in rubbing his eyes our eyes met with an understanding that we should both ignore each other and continue with our business, I looked back at the food, he goes over to the fridge and brings out his own takeout and sits down next to me eating quietly until he spoke up. “You know you’re eating Erwin’s takeouts right? ” he mentioned biting on his snack slowly watching me, I could feel his eyes on me and didn’t bother to look.

“Yeah…” I mentioned, I heard a quiet chuckle escape his mouth, I looked up to him and our eyes met again. “What?? ” I asked and again he chuckles.

“You know Erwin spits on his food so no one touches it..” i coughed and trail my hands to my throat trying to cough what I ate, it amuse Haven who watched me in excitement on how I was handling the situation, I quickly got up and went to the sink trying to puke my intestine out but nothing came out.

“Oh God why didn’t I know this.. ” I mummered in desperation while he laughs this time but quietly. “Now you know..” he mouths with a smile and gesturing me to sit down next to him, I just sat down as requested.

“So are you nervous about stripping ?” he asks like he read my mind.

“I’m not actually stripping am I? ” I asked while he went mute answering my question I was actually going to strip, well great.

“You don’t need to be nervous you’re only going to do some dances and if I must be honest you have an amazing body..” what he said to me made me stunned, my heart skipped a beat and kept beating fast, I ignored eye contact with him he notices and chuckles.

“You don’t believe me? ” he spoke and stopped eating and adjusted his chair towards me and my chair towards him while we faced each other.

He pushed my hair out of my face and leaned a bit close to me but close enough to respect my space and said straight up to my face.

“You’re beautiful..” he smiled and a smile crawled up my lips, I pushed my face down to avoid eye contact and mostly to avoid him seeing me going red as fuck.

He pushed my chin up I was afraid of looking into his eyes, now I know why girls fall for him our eyes met. “If you want to pull of the look as a stripper you have to be confident in your body and that you can get any man to land his eyes on you like seduction you have to be confident, they don’t tell you what to do you just go up to them and get them to want you.” he said I just paid attention.

“Even if you are not confident don’t let them know fake it so well you can make it, you’re really beautiful Quinn..” he said with a smile, my mind went blank and all I could see was him smiling and leaning a little bit.
“What’s going on here? ” a voice brought me back to reality I turned my head to see Seth with a glare staring right at Haven.

“We were talking.” Haven spoke up all I did was nod, Seth eyes met mine he looked away and said. “Enough talking we’re leaving in the morning.” he uttered and Haven nodded slipping away from his chair and walking out of the kitchen, Seth ignores me and goes to the fridge I quickly got up about to exit the kitchen.

“Who knew you could be a flirt.” he muttered lowly I just stopped wanting to hear him finish his speech. “I don’t know what you’re playing at but watch your back I’m getting back at you for giving me this black eye.” he said I turned in disbelief to see his brows furrowed.

“Making me go undercover as a stripper isn’t revenge enough ?” I almost yelled.

“If you make it alive we’ll see.” my heart dropped when he mentioned those words, what the hell did he meant by that?

He didn’t give me the chance to retaliate he just left me in spite of anger.

After a few hours we had to get leave as planned, Haven was the one driving while I was in the back with Seth and Erwin we came to a stop and we had to split.
There was another car hidden and Seth had to change the plate number of both cars, Seth handed Erwin a bag while I stood astray looking at the transpiration between them.

“Me and Darren will be away until the mission tonight take Quinn to her, we’ll meet at the Casino.” Seth said to Haven who nodded Seth also whispered something to Haven which I didn’t make out, Darren made his way towards me and hands me a black nose mask.

“Be careful.” he said and left probably not wanting to say more since he noticed my behavior towards him, him and Seth left in a car.

Erwin gets in the passenger seat while I sat down at the back of the other car and Haven sat down in the front.

“How about we have fun? ” Erwin insisted.

“We have to take Quinn to her first.” Haven said starting up the car, he drove away from the hidden part and it’s starting to make sense why they can’t find them, they keep changing the plate number if necessary.

Haven soon drove off to into the city, I slept off most of the ride so did Erwin, Haven made a stop buying snacks for all of us until we stopped in front of a mini mansion.

We all got down in our masks and walked to the front door, Erwin ringed the doorbell and in a minute or two a woman’s voice was heard.

“Get the hell out of my porch.” her voice scared the shit out of me. “
” Siamo noi.” Haven spoke as the doors unlocked to see a woman probably older than me holding on to a gun. ” Oh, mio, mi dispiace per il benvenuto.” she replied as Haven walked in first and she let us in.

She locks the door behind her as we turned she focused her stare on me “Who is she? ” she asked.

“Your new student, Seth wants you to repay that favor and teach her some tricks or moves stripping.” Haven says, she walks up to me examining my figure.

“It can’t be done, she doesn’t have experience and she looks like someone that lacks confidence find someone else.” she said turning away from us. “Maria?? ” so that’s her name.

“I’m not teaching this unexperienced coward I’ll be wasting my time.” she voiced out intentionally.

“She’s got a point.” Erwin gloats and that made me snap. “I don’t know why Seth even had you in mind to teach me when I could probably get into character and pull it off without your shitty help.” I uttered getting her attention.

“What makes you think a little girl like you can walk up to pull it off stripping ain’t easy sweetheart.” she clapped back at me.

“I’m not your sweetheart and I don’t need to suck up your crap if you ain’t ready to teach me.” I ratted out she slowly walks up to me looking me in the eyes I was pissed off and ready for her next reaction.

“You’re cute, I like you.” she finally said. “I’ll teach you because I like how confident you are.” she said looking back at Haven and Erwin. “Get out both of you we have work to do.” she yelled at both of them.

“Where are we supposed to go we are supposed to stay with her while you train her.” Haven insisted.

“I know your perverted asses too well get the hell out of my house come back for her later.” she said throwing them out.

“You can’t see her identity..” those were the last words Haven said before she shut the door behind me.

I followed her to a room, it was like a dance room there were two poles at each end and also a mirror facing the poles.

I was still wearing my mask she goes to a corner and picks up something and hands it over to me. “You’re going as a masked stripper, these type of strippers hide their identity under a mask and are mostly paid attention to the most.” she said as I nodded the mask was a diamond pearl mask that had tiny lining underneath.

“You’ll be putting that on when you are going to strip strip.” she said and I was comfortable she didn’t ask for my identity or told me to take off the mask.

She told me to take off my clothes leaving me in my underwear, she had me wear a white laced lingerie stating it made me look pure saying something that will make me attractive.

I had to to follow after her which she scolded me for if I missed a step I had a hard time learning to lay my back on the floor while crouching I swear my body aches all over soon the lessons were over and she gave me some tips about being extra careful.

She was helping me fit into my outfit it was white for sure, she was doing my hair and then the bell rang she didn’t answer it but continued doing my hair.

“So how do you know the guys? ” I asked.

“They come over to my the place I used to strip, I was working to help my younger brother and they mostly tipped me, one night some bastard tried to get me to follow him home luckily they were there and saved me and once they beat the shit out of a gang who bullied my brother, they’ve been protecting us, my brother even wanted to join them but they want him to focus on something unrelated to what they are doing, I know what they do ain’t legit but they are amazing and it’s funny I’ve never seen their face without their masks but they feel like family.” she said with honesty in her eyes, she respects them.

The bell was still ringing. “Hold your shit I’m coming.” she said, I wanted to ask her more on how she got the house and where’s her brother but she already left.

I slowly take off my black nose mask and put on the mask Maria gave me, I looked back at the outfit she picked for me, with the make up she applied I felt like a different person, the outfit was a white dress barely clothing me and riding down my thigh, there wasn’t a difference of me being naked and this outfit, a bit of my side but I kinda like the way Iooked.

“Plans changed we can’t meet at the Casino no more we have to get to the… ” I turned to see Seth and the rest they all stopped checking me out, Maria rolled her eyes and walked up to me.

“Well??… ” they didn’t utter a single word not even Erwin. “I thought we were meeting at the Casino? ” I managed to voice out.

“Seriously 8 hours of work and commitment and you guys can’t even at least complement me.” Maria whined.

“Wow…” Haven started off still not believing I’m the same Quinn.

“That’s it I’m going to get a beer.” Maria said exiting the room leaving me with them.

“You look really sexy.” Darren uttered I bit my lip nervously to prevent me from smiling.

Erwin only rolled his eyes. “She could have looked better.” I really wanted to beat him black and blue with my heel.

My eyes rested on Seth who still stared at me in disbelief finally he walks up to me.

“We can manage.” he sighs walking back to the gang, I don’t know why but I felt down because of his words.

“Let’s go…” he said leaving, I looked up following Darren stayed behind I walked past him but he pulled me back and shuts the door.

I stepped back a bit, I now remember him planning to kill me.

“So you want to kill me now? You’re disgusting and completely wrong if you think I’m not going to put up a fight Darren.” a smile worked up his lips. “What are you talking about? ” he questioned already confused.

“You know what I’m talking about, I saw the messages you want me dead and this is your opportunity and I thought you were decent.” I said as he fold his arms.

“You went through my tablet? ” he asked walking up to me.

“Why do you want me dead? ” I asked and he just chuckles. “You are naive and that kind of naive intrigues me is that the reason why you ignored me? ” I didn’t reply because that wasn’t the answer I was looking for.

“Quinn the text you saw was real but you had it misunderstood.” he brings out a black card and hands It over to me I just stared at him lost. “This doesn’t belong to me.” I said as he chuckled again but took my right hand and puts it in and closes my palm shut.

“This card is an untraceable black card you can use it.” he said, his hands were still on mine. “I don’t understand.” I shake my head.

“During the mission I have a someone who will take you away and fake your death, your identity is already taken care of you’ll get to live a normal life without being chased around.” he said while I looked back at the card. “Wait, you want to fake my death and give me a new identity? You could get into trouble with Seth I can’t..” I wanted to give him back the card but he refused.

“I know and I can, Quinn we’re not good people, every force of the law in the country is after us we hide and do dirty things you can’t imagine I don’t want you getting involved if you ever got hurt because of one of us I’ll never forgive myself because you are a good person.” he said.

“That means I won’t see my family again? ” I asked.

“It’s the only way living a normal life without being in this mess, maybe you’ll see them after the Cunningham’s forget you.” he said while I looked back at him.

I wanted to escape but why does it feel I don’t want to anymore.

“Don’t you want this ?” he asks but before I could reply Haven comes back telling us that we needed to get in the car, we both left the room and to the car, I silently thought to myself the entire ride before we got to the club and made up my mind to go with Darren’s plan.

A guy in tuxedo knocked on the glass door of the car he was going to escort me in the club.

Darren already gave me my ear piece to communicate with me during the mission and also for me to tell him when I’m ready to fake my death and escape.

I got down from the car, the man escorted me to the club and left me when I was in, the club was bigger than I expected while some strippers were giving some men lap dances.

All eyes were on me, man or woman and I loved the attention a bit, I went over to the drinks making eye contact with a few men who lustfully looked at me.
“Quinn, the Mansoz’s are at your left you know what to do.” I gulped now narrowing my eyes at the eldest son who was next to his father.

I dropped my glass strutting towards them until a hand gripped on to me and whispered slowly in my ears. “How much for a private dance…” I froze, my heart raced I slowly turned to meet the eyes of the man before me, I didn’t reply him the confidence I had was gone and I felt like I was going to die.

“Quinn, Quinn can you hear me..” I heard Darren’s voice through the ear piece which broke the harsh spark of reality of seeing him again, it was really him.

In a whisper I breathe “Terry….”

•••QUINN•••
He pointed the gun over my head ready to shoot me I heard the gun being knocked out of his grasp.

I looked up to see Seth with a bitch resting face. “Could you be any more stupid ? You’re not going to die, you belong to me remember ?” he voice out while Haven gave him looks.

“I don’t remember being sold to you it’s my life, I don’t know why everyone is after me or what I have with the Cunningham’s I’ll be putting everyone I know in danger.” I mumbled.

“That doesn’t give you a reason to let someone place a gun to your head shoot the shit out of you how were you able to get recruited as a police officer? ” he mocked while I remained quiet for a while. “I’m not going with you guys anyways, I don’t want to be involved with all your dangerous shit.” I cussed they both looked unconcerned with my words but didn’t say a word to me.

I turned and was about to leave but Seth held on to my hand. “Didn’t you hear what I said? I’m not going anywhere with you bastards.” I yelled trying to loosen from his grip, he enthusiastically grinned at me. “Guess what, I don’t give a fuck.” he yanked me towards him and a car stopped by as Haven and Seth gripped on to me carrying me all the way to the back seat of the car where Erwin was, he didn’t pay attention to me at all the sight of smudges of blood shut me up, they shut the doors of the car and both got in, exhausted from everything I dozed off to sleep.

*****
I woke up in a bed, I felt drowsy and immediately I recalled everything that happened yesterday.

“Shit it’s not a dream.” I mummered, I slowly push the sheets away from me I was wearing a white dress shirt and black jeans that somehow hugged my thighs down to my calves.

I got up from the bed and swept my legs down to the carpeted floor, the bed envelped almost all the in the bedroom, there were tiny windows but they were up, I could still see a bit of light so I guess it was morning or noon there was a shelf but it was empty, a desk drawer a bathroom door and a closet and the only bedroom door.

I got up and walked up to the door and as expected I was locked in.
I violently knocked on the door while trying to force it open yelling at the top of my voice I wanted to get out.

Frustrated I step a bit from the door. “Dammit” I cussed slowly walking over to my bed, thinking of how to get out of here.

Suddenly the door unlocked, I was about to go off but then I saw it was Darren, he shared me a smile and held a tray with with orange juice and bacon and eggs, he shut the door with his leg and insisted we both sit on the bed.

I didn’t bother to touch the food or look him in the eye, I just fiddled with my fingers glancing at all corners of the room.

It was nothing but harsh silence between us.

“Aren’t you going to eat? ” he asked, I looked down staring at the bacon and eggs almost salivating but I refused to be tempted.
“I’m not hungry.” I lied, I haven’t eaten anything like food ever since I got kidnapped.

He could have drugged the food so they can keep asleep and I won’t think of escaping.

He picked up a bacon and reached it out to me hoping I’d eat it but I didn’t, I just recalled he got shot for my sake I scanned for where he might have been shot he noticed and smiled at me, my cheeks blushed red and instantly u looked away from his gaze.

“I’ll show you the place I got shot if you eat a bacon…” I looked over to him and he just genuinely smiled at me, he was wearing a blue buttoned up shirt and jeans.
He reached out the bacon for me to eat and I took a bite slowly chewing on it and probably driven by hunger swiped the rest of the bacon from his grasp and ate the rest.
I picked another bacon and then the eggs and washed it down with the orange juice, I didn’t drink it all.

“Did you make this? ” I asked as he shook his head. “Then who did? ” I asked.

“Haven did…” I almost choked on my drink.

“Don’t worry he didn’t poison it… ” he chuckled at my reaction. I finished drinking and slammed the glass down to the tray.
“Show me..” I blurted out almost immediately he feigned being confused but I didn’t buy it.
“Show you what? ” he asked
“Don’t play dumb, show me the gunshot wound.” his expression went flat but he still managed to slightly smile, he slowly pulled up his shirt revealing a tiny stitched path, my eyes left the wound and focused on his abbs.

He didn’t notice but I almost drooled, he looks back at me and I put on a shocked expression to hide my perverted stare.

“Does it hurt? ” I asked hoping to get all attention away from me, he shook his head.

“Not anymore..” he said pulling his shirt down and then an awkward silence followed, I focused my gaze on my thigh ignoring his stare even though I felt he was staring at me.

“Thanks for coming over to give make sure I ate something.” that was the only thing that left my mouth, I wanted to ask him if he changed my clothes because he seem to be the only compassionate one out of everyone.

I opened my mouth to say something but my brain didn’t let my mouth speak.

“You’re welcome, it’s kind of nice finally having a girl around that doesn’t sleep around with the guys.” he mentioned and then it hit me.

“When will you guys let me go? ” I asked, he looked away probably not wanting to answer my question. “Are you guys just going to lock me in this room ?” I questioned as he sighed.

“It’s not like we have a choice, the Cunningham’s already put a huge bounty on your head, getting exposed is the last thing you want to do, the only way to protect you is to hide you or else you’ll be tracked down.” he slowly broke it down. “So what about my mom? Calvin and Mandy how will I communicate with them? ” I asked, he got up sliding his hands down his pockets.

“Until everything is calm you can’t communicate with your family, you would be putting them in a higher risk of danger than yourselves.” he said as I nodded, he picked up the tray and his eyes trailed down to my neck he stared for a while, I held on to my necklace and he just chuckled.
“Who gave you that necklace? ” he asked..

“Umh my dad gave it to me, why are you asking? ” I muttered under my breath but she shakes his head dismissing the topic.
“Nothing important It look good on you.” he finally said leaving me alone in the room again.

The only thing I could do was lay down and stare at the ceiling and map in my mind how to gain everybody’s trust, soon the door was slammed open revealing Erwin.

“Get up and follow me.” he didn’t wait for me to reply he quickly went out and I quickly followed him as he quietly led me to the living room where the guys were.

They were busy murmuring to themselves already dressed all of them, Darren got their attention that I was already there.

“Thanks for coming.” Darren commented.

“It’s not like I had anywhere to go or I could refuse.” I pointed at the point they locked me.

“We’re going on a mission we won’t be around for some days or weeks and we can’t lock you in the bedroom without food or water.” Seth explained.

“Then why can’t I come along? ” I asked.

“You could barely fight when you were ambushed last night, bringing you along to the mission is a big risk for now, we can’t make that mistake.” Erwin muttered under his breath avoiding eye contact with me.

“It’s concluded you won’t be locked in anymore, but you still can’t leave this house, there are cctv cameras secretly planted around the house so we would be watching you from Darren’s tablet.” they all got up, Seth walks up to me and tosses me a gun.

“Incase we don’t come back or we have trouble during the mission and probably someone breaks in here’s a gun, I suppose you’re not naive to use one? ” he mocks while I rolled my eyes at him.

“I can use a gun dickhead.” I rolled my eyes, he took hold of my chin pushing it up, our eyes locked in could see a spark glimmer across his eyes which later darkened.

“This is different, this time you actually shoot somebody.” he said like he read my thoughts, he let’s go of my chin but was still close to me.

“Let’s go Seth we don’t have time.” Haven alerted him as they all picked a bag, they all went out turning their backs against me except Darren who at least told me goodbye.

They finally left leaving me alone in the house with a gun, I left the gun on the table and checked to see if it was locked, it was so I was left with no other option than to entertain myself for the so called days they were gone.

They were gone for a few days and a few days turned into week, at least they warned me that they would take long so I wasn’t worried.

On the other hand I was bored, I wanted to sneak into their bedroom but it was locked except for Seth’s, I went to his bedroom clearly taking a picture with my mind to know where everything was.

I searched his desk drawer for probably a phone or anything, I checked the first and second and found nothing important until I found my blue dress I wore to Noemie’s wedding.

It was folded, I took it out confused, what was it doing here.
Suddenly I cringed and shut the drawer on thinking.

“Did he change me ??” I muttered to myself.

It’s impossible, it was Darren that changed me then if Darren changed me what was he doing with the dress.

I quickly shake my head and left the bedroom and went to the living room, I heard someone unlocking the door, I quickly ran to pick my gun waiting for who was coming in, the door slammed open revealing Seth, I heaved a sigh of relief when he shut and locked the door.

“Where are the others ?” I asked avoiding all concentration on me, he looked unconcerned and unbothered so he didn’t reply me.
He just stared at me for a while, he ignores me and leaves me alone in my thoughts.

“Rude…” I muttered under my breath and sat down on a couch glancing round the living room, I zoned out until someone stepped in front of me I returned back to reality to see Seth with a glare.

“What were you doing in my room? “

I was speechless, his hair was messy and his eyes stared into mine, lip ring pitched at the end of his lip, I was stunned and didn’t have a reply at the moment.
“I know you went into my room, what were you doing there? ” he asked again.

“I… I… ” I didn’t know how to reply, his shirt was flyed open exposing his torso down to his abbs. “I should be the one mad, I know you changed my outfit that night, I saw my dress in your dresser.” I yelled shifting the blame away from me.

“So what if I changed you? ” my heart skipped a beat knowing he wasn’t denying it, I wore a bewildered look. “You’re not supposed to touch me.” I yelled.
“You wanted Darren to be the one to change you instead ? what’s the big deal it’s not like I haven’t seen a pussy before” he smirked, I quickly got up wearing a disgusted look.

” Pervert.” I yelled at him about to walk away from him but he pulled me back and tossed me back on the couch.

“Do you really think I’ll let you go so easily after you went into my room? ” he leaned close to me pulling up my chin.

“Don’t touch me.” I growled slapping his grip away from me.
“And what makes you think I can’t? ” he muttered. “The others are watching from the cctv cameras, you can’t touch me.” I hissed under my breath, he smirked wickedly.

He pushed me down on the couch as his smirk grew thinner, I struggled to get him off me but it was all in vein.

“The night you helped me, I could have killed you but instead I watched you sleep quietly and somehow you get stuck in my mind like you’re worth knowing? Your smile, your scent and your voice is stuck in my head.” he leaned closer and my heart stopped beating, he stopped loosening his grip on me.

“You’re right, I can’t touch you but don’t let me find out you were in my room again.” he gets off me, and leaves my heart beating.

“Dickhead…” I muttered under my breath.

•••DARREN•••
Me and Erwin were in a restaurant, we didn’t need to wear our masks since we were done with our missions.

“I just got a text from Seth, he’s home…” Erwin said but I didn’t pay attention, I was lost.

“Dude, what are you thinking about? ” he asked.

“Quinn, something is off about her, she claims she knew nothing about the Cunningham’s but they want her all of a sudden I can’t help but feel there is something different about her.” I said.

“What? She’s Naive and have no boobs don’t be surprised when you find out she’s still a virgin.” he said.

“I’m not talking about that ? She’s just different and her necklace I’ve seen it before but that was a long time ago.”

“What do you know about the Cunningham’s ?” Haven slammed his hands down glaring at me, he has toothpaste white hair and grey eyes and a chiseled jawline.

Darren leaned against the frames of the door studying my figure I just stayed still and remained numb.

I was in a room it was painted black with only a light beaming in the middle of the room.

“Why won’t you say anything, we can kill you if you don’t give us answers.” he blabbed while I rolled my eyes.

“Then kill me already at least it’s better than inhaling your terrible breath, take a mint or mouth wash before you fucking yell at me for three hours straight.” I smirked while he sniffed out his breath and backed away.

He walked over to Darren whispering something but I couldn’t hear anything, he left the room leaving me and Darren alone, I put my head down avoiding eye contact with him.
He took a chair and sat facing me with a calm look.

“Hi..” he started off I slowly put my head back up to look at him, his eyes stared into mine.

I nodded as a reply. “I’m Darren.” he introduced. “I know.” I replied looking back and forth in the room looking for anything like an air vent or window, it was just a dark room with a door.

The door was my only escape.

“Good, want to tell me yours? ” he asked.

“You already know who I am, there’s no need for introductions.” I mummered while he giggled. “You’re sharp and diligent I like you.” he smiled and broke into a chuckle, my cheeks heat but but my face went calm when I convinced myself I’m in this position because of him.
“That girl at the back, why did you help her? It’s strange you’ll put a stranger first before your self.” he muttered. “Because it’s the right thing to do and I’m supposed to help people and protect them as a police officer it’s my job.” I said.
“It’s kind of Naive don’t you think? ” he commented.

“Who the fuck do you think you are to judge? You used an innocent child for your own gain, what you call Naive is the right thing to do, you won’t understand because you fucking kill people like they’re toys.” I mummered he smiled and nodded. “I don’t kill people, believe me or not I don’t fancy picking a gun the others can.” he said.

“And I should believe you? “

“I don’t need to make you believe me, look you don’t want to be here but the Cunningham’s requested for you, the only reason we have you is because you know something.” he muttered like a crazy person.

“I don’t know what you guys are talking about I don’t know the Cunningham until now when you kidnapped me and handcuffed me here to my own will, I don’t know anything.” I voiced out Darren looked at me with a warm expression.

“Quinn, we will protect you if you think the Cunningham will come after you because of something you know we can help you.” he said.

“I don’t know anything, I don’t need your help, I want to be free and be back with my mom and friends and I’ll never result to working with criminals.” my tongue clicked the inside of my mouth, Darren just nodded and traced his eyes down to my neck.

“You have a pretty necklace.” he commented getting up from his seat. I didn’t reply to him, I just watched him walk out scanning my surrounding.

I was tied down to the chair and being handcuffed didn’t help at all, I looked round the place, Iooked thoroughly at the door.

I looked back for anything like a
CCTV camera but I didn’t see any.
I struggled to loosen out of the handcuffs, this wasn’t my first time being handcuffed though I didn’t have anything to break them so I struggle to loosen it and still it didn’t have a single impact, the next thing I fell my back against the floor, the chair made a loud thud I ignored and wiggled myself slowly out of the ropes.
I got up with a frown as my back hurts as hell, I head to the door to unlock the door knob still handcuffed.

As if luck was on my side it wasn’t locked.

I quickly slammed the door open and walked out to see myself in a narrow corridor with other doors, when they brought me here I was blindfolded.

I shut the door behind me thinking of where to run to, left or right.

I heaved a deep breath to convince myself I’m calm even though my heart was beating like hell.

I took the left quietly running down the corridor and took another turn until I heard indistinct chatter coming from the end I slowly backed up, trying out a door which was locked and then another which was locked too, the chain of my handcuffs got tangled with the door knob.

“Seriously..” I whispered I could hear my heart pounding and almost at my throat.

Successfully I unhooked from the door knob and tried another one which unlocked quickly, I shut it behind me to heaving a deep breath.

The indistinct chatter got audible, I bit my lip in tension as a few voices mummered.

“Erwin and Seth are back.” I heard Darren mummered. “Maybe Seth can explain this nonsense of keeping her, she clearly doesn’t know anything or have anything to do with the Cunningham’s I’m suspecting she means something to Seth.” he continued as they passed while my back leaned against the door.

“She’s a trained police officer she’s trained to act in situations like this, she must have been working with the Cunningham’s and owed them something I don’t believe her…” Haven said as they both walked past, my heart was pounding.

I caught my breath like I planned on running a marathon.

I didn’t know where I was the room I was in was dark my vision couldn’t uncover what room was this, I got up pressing my palms against the door until I felt the light switch, I switched it on to see a bedroom, it had a king size bed, a shelf with a few books and a mask by a desk drawer and a huge closet and a camera which also laid by the desk drawer.

There was also a mirror, I walked over to it to see my dark brown hair a mess and I looked pale and bags were under my eyes.

This is Darren’s room, it’s so neat and huge, my bedroom growing up wasn’t even big as this, maybe Noemie’s bedroom was but I never stepped foot in her bedroom.

There had to be some kind of key here or a chain saw.

I walked towards the other end of the room to the closet which was another separate room on its own it wasn’t too big though.

I left the closest sitting on the bed thinking of an escape plan, Darren looks like the calm one I could play the sympathy card and pretend as if I know the Cunningham’s plan in exchange for my freedom.

My mind bounced back to reality when I heard the knob of the door turn, my heart skipped a beat, I looked round thinking of where to hide.

I looked down under the bed and quickly crawled under to hide, I sneaked in as the door slammed open.

A black shoe stomped slowly in, it was quiet the lights were switched off and then on again, I heard the door shut and the figure sitting down on the bed and sighed.

A knock came on the door, it quickly got up and went to the door. “She’s not in her room anymore.” I heard Darren’s voice, my eyes widened in shock if this isn’t Darren’s room then it’s someone else. “Shut everything on lockdown, bring her back alive.” I heard Seth’s voice I couldn’t be anymore shaking.

“What’s so important about this girl Seth, we interrogated her she knows nothing we should give her to the Cunningham’s.” Darren suggested. “Just do what you’re ordered.” he said slamming the door shut against Darren.

I just laid there quiet thinking of a plan, I heard him walk into somewhere and something like water dropping.

He was taking a shower.

I heard him stomp back and then back into the bathroom and without thinking I came out of the bed and tried to unlock the door but it was locked.

I felt my intestine literally kicked my stomach when I heard a deep husky voice. “What a coincidence to find you in my bedroom.” I didn’t bother to face him I had my back turned for reasons, he could be naked.

“Turn around.” he ordered dominantly I shook my head sideways in fear, I was more afraid to look him in the eyes.
“How did you know I’m here? ” I asked.

“Your scent..” he replied, I still didn’t turn to face him. “No one enters my room and I clearly remember switching the lights of my room before I went out, also the bed was a bit lumpy than usual.” he stated and I completely turned to see him with a white shirt and black jeans and with a key.

“You were bleeding and bruised that night, was that a plan to know where I lived or something, why didn’t you kidnap me or kill me then you would have saved me a lot of shit.” I mummered.

He walked up to me and unlocked my handcuffs, I looked back at him he leaned closer planting his lips at the dept of my earlobe. “And to return the favor, you have five minutes to get out of here if you can escape I won’t come after you but if you can’t forget ever leaving, goodluck.” he muttered lowly under his breath and goes to the door and unlocks it.

I was stunned, it could be a trap but he was letting me go but again it could be a trap, I stood confused and paranoid on what to do.

He stared at me in bewilderment but smirked to hide it. “You have four minutes and counting.” I slowly walked to the door and shot him one last look before I ran out of there.

I kept taking turns but got confused, until I held it together and came out to the living room.
“Stop or I’ll shoot you.” I turned to see Erwin, he held a gun at me, I knew it was a trap.

Haven, Darren and Seth came out, I looked round as the gang was complete.

“I knew this was a trap.” I muttered, Seth wanted to speak up. “I’m tired of being your prisoner, your toy just fucking kill me already why are you keeping me, what did I do to you, if I knew who you were then I should have let you to die.” I yelled at Seth as all eyes focused on him.

“What is she talking about Seth? Do you know her? ” Darren asked.
Seth looked me back in the eyes, he nodded.

“She saw me without my mask.” they all looked at me furious. “If she knows your identity we can’t let her leak it to the Cunningham’s.” Erwin said clocking his gun and pushed me forward ready to shoot.

“Erwin don’t..” Darren yelled but too late he shot, my eyes were shut I was afraid to open them, but I didn’t feel a single sting, I opened my eyes to see Darren stumbling to his knees.

Erwin dropped his gun short of words as Haven and Seth ran up to him.

“What the fuck Erwin? ” Haven yelled, I looked round to see the exit, everyone was busy involved in Darren’s shot, to notice me.
Without looking back I leaped into my only hope for freedom and took sneaked out to the only exit in the room.
