3: No Escape

Abby’s POV

I kicked his stomach so hard that it hurt him and made him cough. He said tenderly, "Bad girl."

I gave him a stern look, and he stood up with a sigh. "I'm not done with you yet," he said and slammed the door.

I sighed deeply, wiped my lips with the back of my hand, and cried all day. I don't know how many times I cried today, but this is too much.

"I'm not going to eat," I said when the door opened, and someone brought me breakfast.

"You need to eat because you're getting married to the mafia boss tomorrow!" The maid sounded strict, and her eyes flashed with frustration as she looked at me.

"I won't get married to a devil like him! Please help me get out of this hellhole. I'll pay you any amount and give you my savings account..." I touched her hand as I begged her to help me.

She looked at me with her head down and said, "It's no wonder Fabian likes you. You're young, pure, stunningly beautiful, and have an alluring eyes that would make any guy want you...."

"Why won't you help me?" I asked as I moved away from her. “You are also a woman. You have a family like me. If one of them were in my situation right now, I'm sure you'd do anything to save them.”

"You're lucky the mafia boss wants you. You don't have any idea how lucky you are!" she laughed out loud.

"What? What are you thinking? Are you out of your mind! No woman would be lucky to be in this miserable situation!" I scoffed sarcastically, and she shook her head, leaving me puzzled.

***********

I waited in the back of the door in the hope for someone to come and save me. Then I heard footsteps coming. I got to my feet and stood there until the man opened the door. It was Fabian. He was wearing a dark suit and had just shaved his face. His eyes went all the way around me.

"Get dressed, we're going somewhere."

“W-Where?”

"Do not ask too many questions."

He put the round box on the bed, looked at me, and said, "Get dressed and do what I say."

I opened the box, and it was a beautiful yellow mini-summer dress. I gulped softly because I was not used to wearing this kind of dress. 

"What's wrong? You did not like it?" 

I parted my lips and frowned, "I don't like you and it's not about the dress!" 

He ignored my words and put his hand in his pocket, "I'll wait for you downstairs, get ready in 5 minutes." 

“5 minutes?” 

“Yes, do you have a problem?” 

I bit my lower lip and ran to the bathroom to wash my face and put on the dress quickly. Maybe this is the time I can get away from him. I need to go with the flow. When I turned the doorknob, he left the door unlocked, so I went downstairs as fast as I could and looked for him.

I gasped when I saw him standing next to me. His eyes went to my breast, so I put my hair over it. I didn't know that the open chest of the mini-dress could show off my cleavage.

I look in the mirror and stare at myself because I'm so self-conscious, and damn, my curves are so obvious.

“We are going to a high-end bridal shop; you need to act natural or else you're dead to me." 

I blink my eyes slowly while staring at him, and he puts his hand on my waist as we walk, but I keep taking his hand away from my body. 

“Don’t touch me,” 

“I’m touching you because I want to.” 

“Don’t touch me or I’ll shout for help.” 

He smirked at me, “And if you do that no one is going to believe you. you know why? Because I’m Fabian Collins. never heard of me?” 

“You don’t sound that famous to me,” I said sternly, and he shoved me inside the passenger seat, and I covered my back with my hand because I was only wearing a lacy panty. 

“Beautiful…” 

I faced him with my face blushing like a red tomato, “Pervert.” 

********

As we arrived at the bridal shop, my heart started to beat in excitement because finally I’m going to be free today. I can escape from this Devil man. His men started to guard the area as we walked inside. 

The staff greeted us with a warm smile and handed me the brochure. 

“What would you like to drink, Mr. Collins?” the staff asked him with a flirty smile. 

Oh, girls, if they know this man is the mastermind of all the evil schemes in this country, they will hate him. 

I gave a shocked gasp and asked, "Where's your restroom?"

The staff member gives me a quick look and says, "To the right, then to the left."

Fabian looked at me with his sharp eyes and said, "Don't go too far, honey. I'll miss you." He said it, and the fact that everyone heard it makes me feel so disgusted because they think Fabian is a good and loyal man when, in reality, he is much worse.

I went to the bathroom and locked the door while I thought about how I could get out of this room and look for a hole or something. I look up and see a small window. I take off my high heels and climb up on the sink. When I opened the window, my heart jumped with joy. I got there so quickly and leaped outside, but my feet hurt when they hit the hard rock.

Then, as I was about to run, I looked over and saw Fabian standing next to me. "Do you really think I don't know what you're up to?"

Fear made me stare at him with my mouth wide open. "F-Fabian..."

“Don’t ever think of running away again because you have no escape from me, Abby.”
