Chapter 128
Arielle woke up for the third time and tried to shake the sleep off her eyes, everywhere seems dark and she could barely keep her eyes open, she tried to get up but she couldn’t, her body ached too like someone had beaten her up, she struggled to open her eyes and when she finally did, she realized she was laying in an unkempt room, the bed which she laid looked like it was moved to the room recently, there was nothing else in the room except the bed and a table, she couldn’t make out what was on top of the table, she got up and sat on the bed looking around her. Her back ached so much. She tried to remember what happened and burst into tears when everything that happened came rushing to her. It was all her fault for leaving the house, she should have stayed put and talked to Luciano, he would have taken her to the hospital and they would have been home together cuddled up but here she was being held in an unknown location, she knew who it was that got her even though she has not yet met the person, no one else but Lily would do this, and she knew why she did it. She felt horrible and hurt, maybe she tried to fight back and they may have hit her but she couldn’t remember much of what happened after the first time she had fallen asleep. Now she knew the reason she had been sleepy was because they drugged her, she should have known better because the whole time she was inside the car, the driver had on a nose mask.
Arielle stood up from the bed, she had to do it slowly because her whole head was banging and she felt weak and light-headed. The door swung open and she looked up to see the person she knew had been the one. Yes. It was Lily like she had thought.
“You are finally awake? I thought you would sleep for two whole days. you have been sleeping for more than twenty-four hours,”
Lily stated, walking into the room. More than twenty-four hours? Oh God, Luciano must already be aware that she was missing and might probably be looking for her already. She prayed he would find her soon because she wanted to be out of this place real soon.
“Why did you bring me here? What did you do to me?”
Arielle asked in a voice that sounded weak and hoarse, must be because she has been sleeping for so long, she wondered what they had given to her to make her sleep for that long and make her also feel light-headed right now.
“I haven’t done anything to you yet, though, you did get a beating to try and wake you up but you are such a weakling that it didn’t help,”
Lily stated as if it was the most natural thing to say. One thing is what she said did explain why her body hurt.
“What do you want from me, Lily? Haven’t you done enough?”
Arielle asked. She was trying her best to gather her strength.
“I haven’t done nearly enough, don’t piss me off, I am going to do more, I told you to do as I said but you refused. Now I will get your stupid ass of a man to do the job while you suffer here for trying to ruin my plan,”
Lily stated.
“You are sick, you are so sick, you should not be allowed to walk freely,”
Arielle yelled at her. The lunatic of a woman started to laugh, oh, she hated her so much and wished her nothing but the worst, how can someone be so horrible to other people? How could she plot so much evil against people who did nothing to her?
“You will soon find out just how sick I can be whore, let that man of yours not do as I instructed, you will know what I am truly made of, should I let you in on a little secret?”
She asked, squatting in front of her. Arielle refused to say a word to her and just glared at her in disgust.
“You look like you don’t want to hear it but I will tell you anyway, this is not my first time, definitely not my second time doing this, in fact, the second time is the reason we got here, if Don had stayed on his lane and not ruin my plan, he would have been living his merry life but no, he got in the way, made me lose something I spent years working on, something that would have made sure my life is settled for a long time, I lost it all and wasn’t able to see my son grow, spent fifteen years behind a fucking cell, all because that old loser wanted to look out for his fuck-ass friend, and plot twist, that friend ended up betraying him after I went to prison.”
She revealed. As much as Arielle wasn’t paying attention to her words, she realized that whatever grudges Lily had with Don were from years ago and that he did nothing wrong.
“You were doing something wrong. It is only right that he protects his friend from you, the only devil here, and even then, is you, Lily, you are a horrible human being,”
Arielle told her which earned her a loud resounding slap. It hurt so bad that it took her a while to feel her face, she covered her face with her hands, if not for the gun that Lily held and the fact that she was still so weak, she would have fought her.
“That’s what you get for being a wide mouth bitch, this is not a joke, don’t fucking play with me,”
Lily yelped. Arielle ignored her, her hands still over her face, her whole cheek burned and she just knew the slaps left prints on her face.
“You look at me when I talk to you bitch,”
Lily stated and yanked her hair.
“AHH,”
Arielle cried out in pain, fighting to get the woman’s hand off her hair but she refused to let go and kept dragging her hair.
“Let me go!” Arielle yelled and pushed the older woman with all of her strength, she was so done with her, hitting her and stuff.
“You have lost it,”
Lily yelled from the ground.
“You are the one who has lost it, fuck you, if you lay your hands on me again, I will fight you, I don’t care if I die in the process,”
She let out.
“I will fucking do what I want,”
She let out, got off the floor, and charged towards her, Arielle was ready for her as she fought her back, when the older woman grabbed her hair again, Arielle made sure to grab hers right back and pulled as hard as she could go, soon they were practically on each other, fighting, even though she was still weak, she had an upper hand over the woman and made sure to deal with her.
“Let me go, you fucking, witch,”
Lily let out pushing her but she didn’t let go, she landed slaps in her face and all over her like she had done with her earlier, she pushed her until she fell down and got on top of her, beating the hell out of her until her nose bled. She wasn’t going to just stop there but the door flew open and two men rushed in and hallowed her off Lily. One of the men landed a punch in her face which broke Arielle’s resolve, she tried to fight them too.
“Tie her up, tie that bitch up right now,”
Lily yelled from the floor and the men did as she told them. Arielle struggled to free herself but they were able to tie her to the bed. She looked at Lily and smiled in satisfaction, she didn’t do as much as she wanted but she did enough for the woman to be in pain like she had been.
“You don’t know what you just did. You have just invited more trouble for yourself. Pray that man of yours does what I want in time because your life is about to be hell for as long as it takes him to get me what I want,”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Lily said and walked out. The men in the room did too and she was left alone, tied to the bed. She didn’t care what Lily did to her. She would never go down without a fight, she just needed to gather her energy enough to fight back. She touched her stomach when she remembered her baby.
“Please be okay until we can tell Daddy, please,”
She whispered to the little one inside her. She stayed like that for a long time before the door opened again, she was giving food which she had refused to eat. She didn’t want to die of food poisoning.
Just like that, a couple of days passed. Arielle couldn’t tell how many days passed because there was no time in the room she was kept in. After rejecting their food a couple of times, she realized she might die of hunger if she refuses to eat and she didn’t want to die so she started accepting the food they gave and only ate enough to keep her alive. Lily didn’t show up at all, she must have done a lot more damage to the older woman than she had thought. She tried asking the guy who brought her food where the older woman was but he didn’t answer her question. She couldn’t even tell what was going on outside. She tried the door a couple of times but it was always locked from the outside and the window was sealed from the outside too. She thought of Luciano and how he must be panicking so much and probably trying to get her back. She felt bad for putting them in the situation and prayed it would be over soon.
