Angelina POV
I woke up with the feeling of the sun reflecting on my face, opening my eyes which was still blurry, I used my eyes to edge the sun that was blinding my eyes, not yet used to the sunlight, my vision already clearing lightly, closing my eyes a bit, I opened them sharply and a sharp pain came out from my head, touching my head lightly, I realized I had a bandage round my head, trying to remember what happened was so difficult, i gave a deep breath, i remembered closing the shop, been chased by some weird guys and........., i tried to remember the other parts, but it seemed so difficult for me to, it was all shady trying to remember, maybe is best i don't remember, who knows if i remember i might have a panic attack, then i looked up, i was only thinking of my predicament not knowing where I was, these wasn't my room exactly, so where could she be, the room was no near to a kidnapper's room, the room looked so big, it was the double of my apartment, I noticed the flowers surrounding the room, giving the room a good smell that I couldn't stop breathing in all day, a fire place which have some woods burning under it, a chandelier which hanged so high, with pink lights coming out from it, the walls were all designed with ancient Greek pictures, and it was so beautiful, the room was decorated with color purple, it was my dream room, the architecture really did a nice job in here, looking down, I was shocked, if the room was beautiful, the floor was breathtaking, it looked like a real ocean, i thought it was a real ocean at the beginning, who builds ocean on their ground, I looked closer and I realized it was a water glass tiles, which was designed like an ocean and fishes swimming on them, I looked really amazing, I looked up at the ceiling. It was made of glass, i could see myself on it, these place really looked to good to be true, it was so incongruous, so surreal, maybe I am still dreaming, maybe am dead, maybe am in heaven
"You are awake, how are you feeling"
I heard a voice, and i looked up, i saw someone standing at the door,I didn't know how he came in because I never heard the sound of the door opening, so how did he manage to come in, I looked back at the room, maybe these was not a dream, or maybe it could, because the person standing on my front was an Angel,
"Hello, are you okay, you look so tired, I have to call the doctor"
He said now coming towards me, checking my temperature, my voice was so dry that I couldn't talk. I said the only thing that came on my mind
"Water"
I saw him jugging towards the fridge, then he came back with a bottle of water, pouring it in the glass cup, he scooped my head up so gently and gave me the water to drink, when I was done, he kept the cup gently on the table, now standing straight, now i could see him clearly. He was definitely an angel, but I needed to confirm of i was awake.
"Am I dead, or am I dreaming, I just wanna know because everything looked so surreal"
I said, scared that maybe I do be dead, I saw a little smile on his face, even though he tried not showing it, it showed on his face,
"You had been unconscious for the past 4 days, so is Normal for your brain to be still blurry, to answer your question, you are not dead, neither are you in your dream, you are awake, you are in real life"
He said, a deep breath left me immediately when he said that, at least I was alive and still breathing, can't imagine i had been unconcious for the past 4 days, then we heard a knock, then a man came into the room, he could be the doctor, by his appearance,
"I need you to check on her, and know if she is OK, Run some test in her blood"
I heard him ordering the doctor, the doctor only nodded and didn't replied him.
He went straight to work, he removed the head bandage on my head, then cleaned my forhead with a towel, he didn't placed another bandage on it again, then he ran some test on me, gave me an injection, then showed me the drugs I would take, I offered him a smile
"Thank you"
I told him, he nodded and then went to the Door where the angel guy was standing, he whispered something to him, and left, closing the door after him.
I was left alone with only him, and I had alot of question to ask him,
"Where am I, and who are you, am confused and I don't know where I am, I can't remember anything, I only remembered closing the shop, later been chased by some men, please where am i"
I asked, hoping he will tell me he was not one of the men chasing me,
"You are in my house, and I saved you from them, you don't remember my face, from the restaurant"
He said now coming coming closer to me, his face looked familiar, trying to grasp where I have seen these face, it was so hard to think when he was near me, he was now sitting on the chair beside the bed am lying on, his cologne was so strong, and it felt familiar, it unnaturally calmed my sense down, which I found hard to believe, maybe I do asked him later where he purchased these fragrance from.
Then it clicked in, he was the guy in the cafe, the one who came in with his two other men, he was the hottest among them, if Briana was in my shoes right now, she might scream
"I think I remember"
I said now looking at him, still surprised he saved me from those men
"You were the guys from the restaurant"
I said, not noticing that he had shifted nearer to me, so when I looked up, his face was inches away from mine, then he wrapped his arms around me, fell his nose on my neck, I could feel him sniffing my neck, I was shocked, my tongue got caught on my throat so really shocked because instead of me to feel annoyed for doing what he is just doing, I instead i felt like he belonged there, like I belong to him, his current flowed down through me, founding my tongue,
" what......are you........ doing"
I said breathing heavily, trying to push him off
"Stay still, unless you are gonna get bitten"
He said drawing me in, with his arms, I didn't know what he meant by that, but I stayed still, scared of what he might said by been bitten, putting his arms under the blanket, he pushed it towards my gown,
"Stay still"
He said again, now pushing his hand further into my gown, holding me tightly and his nose still pressed in my neck, I felt something else moved in my gown, these time not his hands, but something else which was not his hands, it was crawling right inside my legs, and going further up, then his hands followed it gently, the feeling of his hand almost near to my gender, and the creeping things was something else I have never experienced, then immediately, he reached towards the crawling thing which was about to reach my sex, his fingers slightly brushing on my sex, a gasp escaped my mouth, and he withdrew his hands immediately, bringing it out from my cloth.
In his hands was a big scorpion, a dead scorpion.
Angelina POVI was shocked at what I saw, i was mostly confused, how did a scorpion appear on my cloth, how did it enter my body, and why is it dead, when it was alive crawling on my body, I looked up at him and I saw him making a call, the scorpion was on a piece of paper, the colors now turned to black, these was strange."You don't have to think much, the maids will be here with your food, so you just have to eat and take your medications, then rest"He said, sounding as if nothing ever happened, a fucking scorpion creeped out from my body, and all the explanation he had to give me was that I should eat and have a nice rest, what if there are thousands of scorpions on the bed or the room, hell no, i can't stay here" why was the scorpion on my dress, and how did you noticed it, when I did not, I was the one on the bed, and I never noticed any scorpion, but you noticed it, can you give Me a valid reason for that, because these stuff doesn't sound
