lost for words

Chapter 60 (Andrew's POV)

I was sitting in this room for God knows how long.

After I manage to get free I swear I will be outside for at least a few days.

It felt like the walls of my house were slowly swallowing me.

I had no idea where Knox was.

I just knew I wanted out.

But judging by my position that won't happen anytime soon.

My hands were tied to my bed's headboard and those zip laces cut deep into my wrists.

So yes of course I tried to move as little as possible because guess what? It was painfull as fuck!

One moment I was feeling sorry for myself but the next a knock was heard at the front door.

Now when I think back, there is no way it was Shawna because she never bothered knocking. 

She just waltzed inside my house like it was hers.

But maybe one of them ordered take outs since they tied me up in the guest bedroom and no one could make them food.

"Well, well. If it isn't my disobedient future wife."

No.

No, no, no, no!

No way in hell would Knox let Vicky enter this hell house!

"Shall we take a little tour, so I can take you to that asshole? I think a proper goodbye is due."

My mind was going crazy with ideas.

Why would she come here?

She knew I was a bait to get her here in the first place!

But I didn't get much time to think, because in the next moment there she stood.

Beautiful as ever.

But there was something different about her.

Sure she looked the same if you didn't look closely.

But I knew her well enough.

She stood a little taller, with pride and determination, and even though she stood in the middle of a lion's den she showed no fear.

Where she was soft only a few weeks ago, you could now see pure strength.

I watched her step inside the room without any hesitation.

Then she looked at me and smiled softly, then threw me a wink before she turned back to Nik.

"But I thought you wanted me for yourself. I came because I want to be with you."

She made puppy eyes and her voice alone was cringe as fuck.

It was as if this Vicky wasn't the same one I know.

Nik stepped closer to her with that ugly psycho smile on his lips.

"Since you were so willing to give your body to anyone, I think it's only fair to let your last lover get one last taste of what he will never again have, don't you think so?"

If I wasn't looking closely I wouldn't even notice how stiff Vicky became with every word he spoke.

"As you wish. After all, a wife should be obedient and do as she's told."

What.

The.

Fuck!?

Where did this come from?

And where is my Vicky?

This version is not her.

Nik gave her a huge smile and patted her head.

Really? Is she a dog or what?

Everything that was happening felt so unreal that I started pinching myself wherever I could reach on my body.

But I just couldn't wake up

"See my dear. If you would be as good as you are now we would never have problems, and I wouldn't have to force you to satisfy another man. But you need to learn a lesson. So do as you were told and I will be back in 20minutes. I just need coffee."

Vicky nodded her head and started removing her clothes.

When Nik saw the first scars that appeared on the revealed skin he cringed.

"Wait! Don't get naked in front of me! I don't want to see your ugly body! From now on when I fuck you either you will be wearing everything else except your pants or we will turn off every light in my apartment. Or maybe even both."

Right there and then I promised myself he would die.

And I will be the one to end him.

I was sure my face was red from rage but I bit my tongue.

I knew I would only make things harder for myself.

But I was prepared for Vicky to rip him a new one.

But what I saw left me momentarily speechless.

She looked at her feet and said with a low voice that was barely above a whisper.

"I understand. I am sorry for making you see those ugly scars on my body."

I wanted to shout at her, to get some sense into her.

What is going on?

Nik only clenched his fists and teeth, turned around and almost ran downstairs.

Just when I was about to ask Vicky for an explanation she looked my way with a huge smile on her face and ran towards me.

She didn't utter a single word, just started untying my wrists.

When she was done she kissed me with so much passion an ice sculpture would melt to a puddle.

But I had no time to enjoy the kiss.

She moved away in a few moments and ran to the window.

I was still sitting on my bed looking shell shocked at her.

Once again my only thought was: WHAT THE FUCK?!

When I finally got to my senses and was about to ask her just what in the hell was going on she opened the window and turned back my way.

"Listen love. I don't have time for an explanation right now. All you need to know is we are getting out of here in a few moments and then I will explain it all ok?"

I just managed to nod my head and in the next moment something appeared at the bottom of the window.

As I looked closer I saw it was a ladder.

Vicky already started moving down it, and I followed her fast.

When we reached the bottom she quickly ran into the forest and I was close behind her.

Once we reached the first trees she stopped and jumped into my arms immediately.

I barely had time to process everything but I managed to catch her and hug her fiercely.

"Now love, if you could start explaining I would be grateful."

A twig snapped behind us and I let go of Vicky and pushed her behind me in a blink of an eye.

"Now is that any way to thank your brothers for saving you from that psycho?"

I was once again shocked.

There in front of me stood all three of my best friends, and two of them I didn't see in years.

Fox and Monster were here in Scotland.

Once more only one thing came to mind.

Yes.

You guessed correctly.

WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK?!
