To my surprise, the door unlocked with the scan of his finger. The small hair on the back of my neck stood up at the extra security. If I didn’t remember wrongly, none of the other doors that I had seen in the mansion had this security measure. That alone already told me that this room was quite different from the rest.
The door clicked unlocked, and Hayden opened it with ease before he pulled me in through the door after him. At that point, I was so scared that I had already gotten over most of my fears. My body was no lower frozen from shock or fear and my mind had started to clear. Perhaps my experience of living with Hayden is now working to my benefit. Fortunately, or unfortunately, I had gotten slightly used to Hayden’s anger and this wasn’t the first time that I had incurred his wrath. Although this time, I had to admit that it was probably fully my fault. Hayden had the right to be mad at me and I was willing to suffer and go through his punishment.
However, I knew that the offense that I had committed this time was much worse than the ones in the past. There were many factors involved that made my current situation much more dire and difficult compared to the other times when I got into a fight with Hayden. For instance, this time I had unfortunately uncovered some of the brothers’ evil plans. Harvey was involved and he wanted me killed for finding out that he was still alive. I didn’t even know why the two brothers needed to fake Harvey’s death to fool the world. Nothing was making sense.
The door slammed closed behind us and I could hear the automatic sound of the mechanics of the lock locking the door. The door clicked locked, and I was trapped into a dimly lit hallway with Hayden. Hayden seemed aloof and disengaged on the surface, but I knew well enough that he was boiling with anger inside. The colder he appeared on the outside, the angrier he was on the inside. Unfortunately, I had learnt that from personal experience. I bit my lower lip as I waited for whatever was the come.
My mind kept listing reasons why Hayden would probably keep me alive and that was when I realized that I was truly scared of dying at his hands. I could be overly giving credit to myself, but I had to say that I have been a pretty decently good girlfriend to him. He locked me up in his mansion and I obediently stayed. Although I did throw a pretty long fit before we managed to come to an understanding. I sent him off to work and welcomed him back home almost every day. I slept with him whenever he wanted which was very often.
He can’t just kill me, right?
I never knew that there was a hallway hidden behind a door like this and I wasn’t surprised that I didn’t know. This placed screamed “secret hallway” and I doubt that any of the staff in the mansion knew about its existence either. Goosebumps formed on my skin and my fear returned in full swing.
He’s not going to kill me here and dispose of my body, right?
