Paige groaned in sleep, her whole body felt like it been pierced with needle and her head ached as of someone was hitting her with hammer repeatedly.
She tried to open her eyes but the flash of bright white light blinded her vision, which only increased her headache. He groaned and tried to move, but felt as if something was pulling her , restricting her from moving away.
She groaned and tried to pull herself up, but a pain seeped through her hand and her legs, and suddenly the thought of previous events jolted her awake from her sleepy state.
She is kidnaped.
She opened her eyes and looked around, trying to adjust with the light that was falling on her face. And that's when her eyes fell on her tired hands and legs.
The son of kinkajou has tired her!
She clenched her jaw helplessly and looked around, trying to find one single way to escape this place and him. But she found non. And the rope was tired in such a way that , the more she tried to pull herself, the more it tightened around her wrist and legs.
She still didn't gave up.
She tried to twist the rope the other way so that it can loosen up a bit , but nothing helped.
She felt helpness and vulnerable.
Closing her eyes , she fell back in bed and a flash of what her life was just few days ago made tears gather around her eyes.
Her father was her everything. He was the man who taught her how to be strong. He taught her how to fight and never to give up. He trained her in every possible martial art, but her favorite was boxing.
A lone tear escaped her eyes and vanished in between her wild manes that was sprawled on the pillow , as she recalled the day her father bought her first boxing gloves.
[ Flashback
"Daddda!" Paige giggled in happiness as she saw her father car speed through the driveway and stopped in front of there house.
She pulled her mother and pointed excited as she saw her father get down from the car and next he pulled a big box with him.
"Baby, calm down. Dadda will come inside." Her mother chuckled and held a seven year old Paige's hand.
"Daddda , come here." She screamed and let her father know about her presence , while both her parents chuckled at her antics.
"Mamma ,put me down, Dadda is is here!" She squirmed next to her mother who held her closer so that the excited Paige don't end up jumping down from the balcony.
Her mother chuckled and kissed her cheek and lead her inside the room , that's when the door opened and her father entered with a big box wrapped in gift wrap. Paige eye sparkled in excitement.
She jumped in happiness and ran toward her father and hugged him , who pulled her closer ,peppering kisses in her forehead whilst tickling her. She giggled and laughed loudly.
"Guess what I got for my little , paggy?" Her father eyes twinkled mischievously and she clapped her hands as he forwarded the present to her.
"Is it the new doll house?" Paige's mother said as she came and stood next to them. But Paige was two busy unwrapping the gift wrap , she opened the box and squealed excitedly.
"Dadda ,you got me my favorite colour boxing gloves!?" Her father Connor laughed and nodded.
"You are going to turn her into a monkey man who fight all around. " He mother laughed as she saw how Paige wore the gloves who were still a little to big for her small hands.
"She is fighter , my little fighter." Her father's voice held proud. ]
And even after all these years , she could never forget that day.The day that snatched her happy family. That when another thought stuck her. Her father, he must be worried about her.
Paige wanted to scream and cry, but she wanted to get out of this place. To her father, two her best friend and the guy who never left her side, Marcus.
Just than the door swung open and the reason behind her misery entered while pushing a trolly.
Her jaw clenched as she looked at the man in front of her. His wore another shade of black shirt and a sweat pants, his face clean shaved ,and his dark brown hair looked slightly wet as it carelessly fall on his forehead, that indicates that he must have taken shower. Paige groaned and pulled the rope , still glaring at her kidnapper.
She did not wanted him to think she was weak, 'cause saw not. She was the wounded tigeress who was ready to attack.
But he looked at her with nothing but amusement, as if she was his play thing.
His heterochromatic eyes glinted with mirth and that didn't set well with her.
"Don't even think about running away, princess." He mocked and placed the trolly next to the bed before turning to look at her.
Paige didn't reply but her temper reached a notch. She wanted to smack his face on the wall repeatedly before tying him up on this very trolly and then spin him all around.
As if reading her thoughts , he chuckled.
"Try me , princess. All you are capable of giving me is a kiss." He laughed darkly and looked away.
" I will fight you. I will fight you untill I take my last breath." She spatted and tugged the rope which ended up tightening.
"And I would love to tame this wildness in you." He turned towards her and smirked.
"And let me tell you, you won't like my ways at all." He added and a shiver ran down Paige's spine as she didn't miss the authoritative tone in his voice while he looked at her pointedly.
"I am untamable!"
"Are you? Then I would love to break this untamable wild cat in my wild way." He leaned closer and whispered , and the next second, Paige felt a cold sensation in her cheeks.
And that's when she realized , he had placed an ice cube on her cheeks.
