Beg For Your Life

Aila woke up with her hands bound with a rope on a chair, and with a piece of cloth covering her mouth, she looked around the place is unfamiliar to her, but it looks like an abandoned warehouse.

"Oh the wh*re is awake, call boss so we can start." One of the men instructed his crew.

"You are lucky the boss wants you awake, if not I would have broken your purity already."

"Geez, what's taking her so long, I want to f*ck this girl already."

One of them shouted in exasperation.

The situation was slowly synching into Aila when she saw Rachelle with a big smile on her face.

"B*tch, this is the time when you cry; why do you still look calm and arrogant when I have your life on the palm of my hands?"

Rachelle took off the cloth covering Aila's mouth, she wants to elicit some emotion on her, she wants to torture her so bad but seeing Aila right now, it is as if she's the one being tortured.

"No one's going to come and rescue you now, I want you to cry and beg for your life."

Instead of crying, Aila laughed at Rachelle.

"Just now, you said that you plan to have me r*ped and tortured?"

"Go ahead and laugh, this is the last time you will be able to do that because after you experience all those sufferings I will kill you with my own hands."

Rachelle was sternly looking at Aila's face, she still does not see fear, and she raised her hand wanting to slap Aila so hard on the face.

Just as she raised her hand the sound of a siren and a couple of people in uniform emerged pointing a gun at her and her men.

Reese came and untied Aila, "Are you okay?" she looked worried while checking on Aila's bruised hands.

"I'm fine, come on let's go home, I want to rest."

Rachelle was so surprised how fast her plan was destroyed, she did not even have a chance to hurt Aila.

Aila was escorted to her car; her staff took care of everything since she can't personally appear at the police station to give her personal statement.

While they were in the car, Aila rested on Reese's lap.

"You did a good job there holding your emotions, weren't you scared even just a bit?" Reese complemented Aila.

"I never expected our training would come in handy, you really did not give me a clue when you left me with the two guys."

"You know I can't give you a hint, to make it appear more natural, you just have to trust us that we will keep you safe no matter what."

"I knew that deep in my heart, that's why I was so calm the whole time I was there, I think Rachelle was more nervous than me."

"Hahaha, the way you got her confession was epic."

"I know she's the arrogant type, the type who makes a detailed minute of her crime just so she can brag about it… hahaha."

According to their training, if a kidnapping is attempted, they will let her be taken but they will follow closely to assure her safety. They will then wait for the mastermind and try to get a confession to seal the crime as fast as possible.

"I want the details, how did you know?"

"Tracy."

"Tracy? Do you mean the right-hand of the witch?"

"Yep, apparently she's still got a conscience, she said she tried to stop Rachelle, but in return, Rachelle threatened her family. She went to me earlier and warned of the possibility that Rachelle would want to get you hurt, so we were on high alert the whole night waiting for the attack."

"Please give her and her family a reward, she doesn't deserve to have a friend like Rachelle."

"Consider that done, would you like to thank her personally?"

"Yes, of course, I admire her courage to do the right thing even if you and your family are at stake."

"Let's talk to her at school on Monday; I will let Roy set up the meeting."

"My friends are so capable!" Aila smiled and a few minutes passed and she was fast asleep.

Monday at school, Aila was part of the committee to organize the Graduation Ball; Tracy was part of this group.

Reese, Aila, and Tracy were in charge of decorating the stage; "Aila and Tracy can you please get some boxes in the student council office?" Roy gave the signal to Aila to have the chance to talk to Tracy privately.

"Thank you for saving me, Tracy."

"It's nothing; I just did what should be done."

"That's not nothing, my life, yours and your family's life was at stake."

"Do you have an idea what happened to Rachelle? I haven't had the chance to talk to her after the incident, I'm scared that she will still do harm to my family when she finds out I was the one who snitched on her"

"She will be spending the rest of her life in jail, planning and executing harm against any member of the royal family is a grave crime, not bailable."

Tracy's jaw dropped. "What the f*ck?"

Aila laughed at Tracy's reaction.

"I'm sorry, I mean for real?"

Aila nodded to assure Tracy what she was saying was true.

"It is also a law to reward people who protect the security of any member of the royal family."

"I want to offer your father a job in the palace, and you will be receiving monetary compensation, your education will also be sponsored from this point forward."

Tracy was crying tears of joy; she can't believe how fast her good karma came back.

"Are you okay?" Aila hugged her and gave her a tissue to wipe her tears.

"Thank you, Princess Aila and I'm sorry for all the troubles I've caused you before."

"You are forgiven, but please help me keep my identity hidden until I get to announce it formally."

"My lips are sealed, you have my loyalty."

"Okay now, fix yourself we have to finish decorating the stage."

The team spent the whole day decorating the ballroom. It was the last task that was delegated to students, Aila felt proud that she was part of this.

They were in the middle of the ballroom, staring at their work with a sigh of relief that they were able to accomplish it nicely.

"Do you already have a date for tomorrow's ball?" Ken asked Aila.
