Chapter Sixty-six
Liam’s pov
The time was moving extremely fast and there were still no signs of David yet. I was getting pissed for one reason; David was the type of guy who would see girls and would want to go underneath their panties.
With this thought in mind, I rushed out of our own self made camp and headed towards the place where she had been held hostage.
Upon coming to the scene, something wasn’t right in any way, the door was locked from the outside and there was no sign of life.
Jerry had gone into the woods to get fruits for the evening and thus the reason I had sent David in the first place.
I kept on banging at the door, hoping he would hear me but no one replied. I was certainly not liking the sound of this, it felt awkward knowing that no one was speaking inside.
“I got the fruits” I almost fainted the moment I heard Jerry’s voice.
“Jesus Christ Jerry! You nearly gave me a heart attack man” I said, holding my chest in a bid and calming my breathings.
“Sorry” He said, cringing a bit “Where is David and why is the door locked?”
“I don’t know man, I sent him to go check on the girl and he had been taking way too long and I had to come see what’s going on myself and this was the end result.” I said pointing to the scenario before me.
“Well lucky thing is I got a spare key” He announced, wiggling the key before me as I stared in disbelief.
Quickly, I grabbed the key from him and was able to unlock the door. The moment I pushed the door over, I gasped in disbelief, seeing the scene before me.
David was unconscious and there was no sign of Elena. That bitch must have found a way to fool him and get away with it.
“What do we do man?” Jerry asked once he checked the pulse of David to know if he was alive or not.
“We need to find that bitch before she goes anywhere else” I declared and turned around with Jerry behind me and we left.
How did she think she could walk away all by herself in this bush? I was certain that she would pretty hurt herself, before even realising it.
“We need to split up, you will take the left, and I will take the right” I said to Jerry, who was trying to catch his breath.
“Are you sure we can still find her?” I knew he had a point. Judging from the time frame that this incident has occurred, there was no say as to how far she had gone.Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“We need to find her, we must find that girl” I declared and walked up to him once more.
“If we don’t find that girl, we cannot find Mac. You get it?” I asked him, noticing the stress that was already pronouncing on his face.
“I do” And with that, we parted ways into the forest, for a quest to find Elena.

Elena’s pov
The bushes were thick and I could only keep running with hope that I would have been long gone before Liam would even find me.
I was exhausted and I needed water by all means. I had covered a very long distance and as such, I knew I needed rest.
Laying under a big tree, I watch as nature keeps on doing what it does best, providing the earth with its beauty.
Suddenly, I heard a shuffle around the trees, causing me to stand up almost immediately. I knew it was coming from the direction I was intending to take afterwards.
I searched around for any weapon and all I could get was a stick. Swiftly, I grabbed the stick and waited for the person to show up and smack them in the face.
The moment the trees revealed the human figure, I was almost about hitting them with the stick before realising who it was.
“Elena?” He asked, shielding his head from my impact. He was lucky I had quickly noticed his statute, he would have been unconscious by now.
“What the fuck? Why are you out here Elena? Everyone is worried about you… I am worried about you” He said, grabbing the stick from my hand.
“Well thanks for your concern but I was kidnapped!” I shouted the last words to him, still really angry that it was because of him I got to be in this mess in the first place.
“Kidnapped? By who?” He looked confused and i could bet he wasn’t going bro be ready for the next thing I was about saying;
“By Liam” I could see his body tensed the moment I mentioned that name.
“What the heck Mac? Why did you do what you do with Linda, knowing he was the one that actually saw her first?” He looked away from my direction into the woods and I knew he was guilty.
“Look, I didn’t know they were dating at that time, I saw Linda as a beautiful person and I decided I was going to have sex with her. I did not know it would lead to so much catastrophe?” Such a way to defend himself.
“And you didn’t let him know afterwards?”
“I know Liam really well he would not want to hear me out and so I left it as they were” I knew there was nothing any of us could do.
Even though I hate to admit it, I was glad that he at least admitted to his mistake and for all indications, he was a changed person.
“Listen Elena, we have to atleast get out of this forest before anyone finds us here” He declared, holding my hand and we both took to our heels running away from a big problem in the person of Liam.

We ran for almost an hour and never stopped. It wasn’t till I could no longer feel my legs, did I know that I had to stop at this point.
We were by another lake when we stopped running and none of us cared a bit if the water was clean or not, we just kept drinking from it.
“I guess I would have to have a feel of this water, you can join me if you want” He said, pointing to the lake.
I rolled my eyes at him. I watched as he took off his shirt before getting ready to remove his pants. I turned around blushing and blocked my eyes with my hands.
I really wanted to turn around and see his brawniness but forced myself to not look and give him some privacy.
“You know you can look now ” he chuckled
Turning around I still kept my eyes blocked and peeked through my fingers to see him. He was already in the water floating and swimming. When did he get in the water? I uncovered my eyes when I felt that I might have looked ridiculous.
