Chapter 14

"Don't! Don't please!!" I cried out. He was going to hit my head Againpst the wall.

"Anthonio stop." a voice ordered. We both turned to see one of the men standing at the door. He had on a mask that covered his whole face, exposing only his eyes. How mysterious were they?

"She deserves a lesson."

"Maybe but she has to remain fit to meet the boss after tomorrow," he replied. I was still sobbing in pain with Antonio's hand in gripping my hair. "Let go of the bitch. And ask that more food be brought for her. And you!" he said, looking at me "Eat or I kill you personally."

"....mmm...hmm..." I tried to nod.

Anthonio flung me on the bed and I continued to cry. They both left the room. Some minutes later, Velma brought me another tray of food and I ate. I was really scared now. I felt like I was digging my own grave. What was this?

** br At 10:30 pm, I lay on the huge bed in the darkness. I was scared and alone. I couldn't find sleep and I knew the night would be long. br While I lay, I suddenly heard voices in the hallway. I got out of bed and tiptoed to the door. I put my ear against the door to try and listen. There were two of them. The first voice was unfamiliar but the second was that of Antonio.

"She seems calmer now. I expected her to freak out on preparing to meet the boss. What did you tell her?" the voice asked.

"Lies. I told her the boss won't touch her." Anthonio replied. My eyes widened. I was scared to death. Anthonio had lied to me! And like a dumbass, I believed! What did I expect?

"Hahahaha..." I heard the evil laugh from the other one. It gave me the chills. "...and she was dumb enough to believe?"

"Apparently. The boss does what he wants. Who are we to stop him?"

"Exactly."

I heard another laugh as they walked down the hall till their voices faded. I collapsed in shock. I was doomed. There was nothing I could do.

*** br The next day was monotonous. The only person I saw was Velma who would bring me food at the right time. Even when I tried speaking with her again, she wouldn't answer. And that's how that day passed till the next. My Doomsday. br I bathed and Velma dressed me up in a short and tight black gown along with black heels. She made me up, though tears would destroy it and she'd have to start over. Finally, she blindfolded me.

"I wish you luck my dear." were her last words as I felt strong arms grab both my arms. I was led out of the room and down the huge staircase. Then I was led into what seemed like another room. The hands or men grabbing me let go of arms and I stood there lost. br There was silence and I knew was being watched...by all of them. They were sitting right there. I just knew it.

"What's your name?" a voice I'd never heard before asked. My blood ran cold. It...it was the boss. br I opened my mouth to say something but I froze. I was so so scared! Tears rolled down my cheeks.
