We were on the run, again.

It's been four days since the abduction and we hadn't stopped running. We even hot-wired a car and dyed our hair blonde and changed our names... again. To stay off the raider.

We were now Gabriella and Emilia Bianchi, sisters. We were in some city in Rome. I had swallowed a couple of pills Amaya got for me the past couple of days so I felt better, physically that is. I was currently standing by the window of my room, looking below at the hustle and bustle of the great city. The honking of cars accompanied by the voices of hundreds of people speaking at the same time seemed so loud and yet so silent, distant. I was in my own world, my own bubble, the stress of the past few days finally catching up to me. I had come to the window in hopes of getting distracted from my spiralling thoughts, a relief from my inner turmoil but even the city below and the noise couldn't distract me from myself.

I had only one image stuck in my head, the image of our kitchen bac

    "Time to let go?" I asked coldly. I stood up, towering over her, my aching body and my pounding head long forgotten. The anger and adrenaline coursing through my veins was the only thing I could focus on, the only thing I could feel. "My fault? You're blaming me? You were my friend, Maya. You knew everything I was going through, and you knew how badly I wanted to be out there training instead of staying locked up because I was too weak." The anger coursing through me was so strong that it actually frightened me. I could feel it swirling in my veins, touching every inch of my entire body. I’d never felt this way before. "A real friend would have known not to boast so blissfully, a real friend would have seen how much I was hurting from hearing you rant about all those things I wanted too, and I ignored it all, letting you express your excitement because I thought I was being a good listener. I endured pure verbal torture for five years, Amaya." I could hear the distant sound of r

    I felt a pair of strong hands shake me roughly. It did nothing to ease my headache, only made it worse. I groaned in pain, letting the person know they had succeeded in waking me up. My whole body ached, and the fact that I was on hard ground didn't help at all. My throat was parched and my mouth tasted like bile and blood. I sat up slowly and took in Amaya's beaten form staring at me blankly. I glanced around to find that we were in a cell of some sort; there were huge silver bars in front, and the stench of blood and wolvesbane almost had me throwing up again. I slowly dragged myself to the back of the cell, resting my back against the wall. The cell opposite us had someone in it; an old lady with thinning grey hair stared at us with curiosity and amusement. Her hands were in shackles, and the wrists around it looked burned. I subconsciously rubbed my wrists, thankful to not be in that situation, but my movements did not go unnoticed by her. "Enjoy it while it lasts, rookie," sh

    Thankfully, today I woke up right on time and got to work with five minutes to spare. My health was slowly deteriorating; this morning, I had woken up with a pounding headache and a dry throat. My whole body ached, but it was bearable, enough to still be able to get to work, plus calling in sick would have most likely gotten me fired since I wasn't exactly on best terms with my boss. All I had to do was get through the week, then take a trip to the doctor's office on Saturday. Easy, right? Wrong. By 11 a.m., my health had gotten worse. I felt hot, my body was aching more so than before, and I was thirsty. My headache had gotten worse, and I was barely able to keep myself up. "You don't look so good, kid," I glanced up to find Mateo, one of the chefs, looking at me with concern. He was a middle-aged man, the only decent male working in this restaurant; the rest were a bunch of disgusting perverts. "I'm fine, Mateo," "Nonsense. You should go home," he demanded, lightly pus

    It was the middle of the day, and the restaurant was still buzzing as usual. I was completely flushed, going back and forth from the kitchen to tables. I was a little bit glad I got a busy job; it kept my mind off my brother. I was standing by a table, waiting for a snobbish middle-aged woman to place her order when I heard the chime of the bell above the door indicate the entrance of another customer. I groaned internally when I saw a set of people walk straight to table three, one of the tables I was assigned to wait at. I finally got the middle-aged woman’s order and took it straight to the kitchen. There were five people sitting at table. Three men and two women. They were all outworldly beautiful, but only one caught my attention, one very beautiful male. His striking grey eyes were the first thing I noticed, as it seemed to pierce through my entire being, shaking me to the core. His brown hair looked thick and wavy, and I wanted so badly to sink my hand in it, to feel it run t

    "Excuse me?" She slowly came forward and I noticed her eyes were a green, almost the same shade as mine. She lifted her hands to her mouth, tears filled her eyes and I noticed she was shaking. I glanced confusedly at Amaya to find her glaring at the small woman in front of us. "Are you okay, ma'am?" She took another step closer, stretching her hand forward as if to touch me when Amaya stepped in front of me, stopping the woman in her tracks. She glanced at her hand as if now realising what she was doing. She cleared her throat and composed herself. "I'm sorry, you just reminded me of my... of someone," she said with a raspy voice and a strained smile. Although Amaya stood in front of me, the woman didn't take her eyes off me for once. "I'm Maria." "I'm Ja..." I paused, would it be wise to give her my real name? “Jessica and this is my friend Grace, we're lost and in need of shelter for the night." She gave me a knowing smile that told me she didn't believe me but let it go nonet
