Chapter 19: Pay For This

“Ugh,” Arianna stirred from her sleep, her eyelids fluttering open after a little discomfort.

“What the hell?” She groaned because it seemed like her world was spinning right now. Her hand went to her head to press on the spot where she could feel a throb.

Suddenly, it all came back to her: she was having dinner with her family when suddenly her world blackened.

Fuck it!

Her uncle drugged her and now the question in mind was why? Nonetheless, Arianna was not comfortable about this especially because they had been discussing his debt and the next she was drugged. What if he sold her off?

God, this can’t be happening. What had she ever done to deserve this? Perhaps, if she had known, she would have moved into Mimi’s place and forgotten all about being a burden to her family.

However, this was no time to regret her past actions, she had to know the kind of situation she was in and how to resolve it. So Arianna stood to her feet and looked around her room.

.....

The room was lavishly decorated, however, it was over the top and wasn’t her taste. Almost everything was in pink and purple and it irritated her. Did they think she was some barbie doll or what?

Alright, Arianna, calm down, this is no time to hassle over the color of your prison. Yes, this was a prison. A luxurious prison.

Arianna went to the door and thankfully it was opened, so she peeked out first before slipping out of the room. Years of treating criminals must have rubbed off on her because the first thing she did immediately when she came into the spacious hallway was to check for cameras.

Of course, she found them and went ahead to check their blind spot, calculating the angle and distance to not be captured in the camera. It didn’t help matters that she didn’t know where she was but deep down, Arianna had a disturbing feeling she was in the loan shark’s territory. Sadly, if that was the case, that meant this place was overflowing with those gangsters.

The situation didn’t look promising but Arianna refused to be disheartened. She believed in the law of attraction and as long as she remained positive, she would see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Arianna stuck to the walls since it was much harder to sight an incoming figure that way than being in the open which was much easier to spot a figure.

Everything had been going well for Arianna until suddenly she heard a racket coming from behind and she knew at once they’d noticed her escape.

“Oh shit!” Arianna cursed and broke into a sprint fully coming into the open. There was no need to be discreet anymore since her departure had been discovered. Right now, it was time to run for her life.

Although she had no clue where she was or heading to, Arianna kept running and running, going past rooms after rooms when suddenly she was yanked off the ground from behind.

She screamed her lungs out, “Let me go! I said let me go!” Arianna struggled with the man from behind but the giggling idiot held her tighter and even took that opportunity to feel her up. That pig! She was full of anger.

However, the disgusting pervert was the least of her problems because more voices were coming in their direction, and to prove her right, she saw a man approach them.

“We’ve caught her!” The man announced and just when he was close to grabbing her, Arianna lifted herself and taking advantage of the man’s support from behind, kicked the man in the head and he fell straight to the ground.

“You!” hissed the other man who grabbed her from the back. He had not expected she would manipulate him like that and just as he was about to turn her around and carry her away, Arianna struck.

She was much faster than him and head-butted him with so much momentum that made her yelp from the pain as well. Gosh, that hurts.

Arianna and the man staggered on their feet, but compared to her, the man suffered much impact and wasn’t able to coordinate his movements so she took that opportunity to escape.

As if the universe was on her side, she came into the foyer and at last saw the door! The door of freedom!

If Arianna had been running previously, right now, she became the Flash because she added more speed knowing that her freedom was near.

Unfortunately, as she reached the door, she was pulled back by the hair causing her to cry out in pain. And just like that, she saw her door of freedom grow further and farther as she was pulled far away from it.

Arianna landed on the floor from the force and she glared up at the men who surrounded her, laughing at her misery.

“Hey,” One of them laughed, mockery in his gaze, “She’s quite a tough one,”

They circled and trapped her as if she was a circus animal. But Arianna was never one to give up. With a growl, she stood up and pushed the closest to her away while another grabbed onto her arm. It was that person that she turned and bit him so hard that she almost tore off his flesh.

“Aah!” the man screamed as Arianna held onto his flesh like a mad dog. It was really painful.

The others, seeing what was going on, quickly grabbed Arianna and began to pull her away from the man.

“I said let me go!” Arianna thrashed around as more than three hands grabbed onto her and successfully stopped her from becoming a cannibal.

“You bitch!” shouted the man whose hand was now bleeding and before anyone could stop her, rushed towards Arianna and slapped her on the face.

The pain tore through Arianna and her vision swirled. Her heart hardened amid the pain because as soon as she got out of here, her uncle and his family would pay for this.
