Katherine’s pov

I slowly woke up as my head felt woozy. I couldn’t do or say anything as I sighed and blinked hard to get used to the dark room I was in.

Where was I?

I tried listening to any sound to know where I was but I couldn’t hear anything. It felt like the building I was in had so much space and I could hear the howling of wind all around.

With a sigh I tried getting up as I felt a metal strap against my leg. I looked at the chain that had me stuck to a place as I found it connected to a latch on the wall.

I immediately got scared as I wondered how I had gotten from the hospital to this place.

With a sigh, I reached over with my other hand for leverage as I tested the limits of the metal chain unsuccessfully for what seemed like minutes until I realized I had no tools or weapons whatsoever to help free myself.

I thought for a way to get out of here when I noticed that I still had my hairpin in place. I could easily pick the lock.

I smiled and got it out as I worked slowly. I

    Katherine’s povI got out of the elevator and I looked at the man before me.“Well,” he said, his voice sugary sweet. “Did you come here to beg, Katherine?”I didn’t waver. I turned a little to John, who was standing steady by my side in his neat grey suit, his tie sharp, his glasses gleaming with the lights in the lobby.“This is my lawyer,” I replied flatly.John glanced at the interviewer and managed a curt nod. “Good morning.”“Your lawyer?” He panicked as he wondered what I was here for. “What for? You finally realize you can’t play the game alone?”“Look, im not here for you or anything. I’m only here to make sure my deals go well.”His brows shot up. “Deals? What deals? You don’t even have a job here and you’re here talking about deals.”John stepped forward. “My client, Miss Katherine, is finalizing the acquisition of this company. We’ve already had some preliminary conversations. We’re here to meet with the board. We have done so and it has ended so now we are going home.”Th

    Katherine’s povI stood, smoothing down my blouse. “Good. Then I’ll make sure they regret underestimating me.”I got back home to sleep and I didn’t get enough sleep that night for some odd reason. But it didn’t matter. I was excited to get my revenge against that interviewer. Oh I would relish having to destroy him. For now. I would bide my time.I thought of my brother, how he must have looked lying there in the hospital bed. I thought of my child, so real now and beginning to grow inside me and I knew that I didn’t have any more time for fear. It wasn’t about me anymore.I had to do something with myself, something tough enough to protect them both.The next morning, I put on the only blazer I owned when I left home. It hung a little loose on me and the edges of the cuffs were faded from wear, but it would work. I pulled my hair into a neat bun, put on some makeup to disguise how tired I was.I got to the building as the guards opened the door and the interviewer saw me and smiled

    Katherine’s povThe morning was colder than usual. I didn’t even bother making coffee. I had a meeting with the lawyer today and I was determined to have this done.I bathed and was about to rush out when marlin my neighbor got into the house and asked me where I was going.“I need to meet up with a lawyer. I got harassed at my job interview.”“What?!” She gasped. “What madness! Who would dare do that?!”“The guy there. He was speaking in weird tongues and getting awfully too close for my liking as I started to tell him I wasn’t interested. That didn’t seem to deter him. But either way, all I can say now is that he will be sued for what he tried to do to me. That is all.”“That’s the spirit,” she said in anger. " I can't believe this rubbish. How dare he think he can come up to a woman heavy with child and talk to her like she is some slut on the street.”I laughed. "Okay relax. I'm not heavy with child.”“But you are,” she laughed. “Either way, it doesn't matter. No one is going to

    Katherine’s povI stated at the man in anger as his words sat before us in shock.My stomach twisted. “Wha… what are you talking about?” I managed to say, my voice oddly harsh and too shaky.His smile never wavered. If anything, it grew even wider. “I’m not lying to you,” he said. “This job… well we can’t move forward until you decide to do something for me first. I need something and you need something. This is just a way of shall I say… helping each other.”I sighed and hit to my feet. “I’ll see myself out.”Ans with that, I started for the exit as he stopped me with his next words.“You’re pregnant, aren’t you?” He said.I scoffed and turned to him as he was leaning against his seat.“You believe you’re so strong, so self-righteous,” he continued, his voice mocking me. “But you’re not. You’re too righteous to ask for help. Too righteous to realize you can’t do it on your own. You’ll come to me. Soon enough. And when you do…” He shrugged. “…I’ll be here.”Everything went quiet for a

    Katherine’s povI woke up the next morning as my alarm rang out. I looked at my phone and knew my brother was coming in today. I also had an interview later that morning.With a sigh, I got out of bed and went to have my bath.I wasn’t going to think too much about it. I would instead calm myself and make sure I didn’t cry when I would see him in that stretcher.It didn’t take long for me for me to finish at home and call a cab to take me to the hospital.I got there and entered as I waited in the waiting room before an ambulance showed up and my brother was taken into the hospital.I watched as they rolled the bed and sighed.They rushed him to his bed as a nurse came to me.“Please, miss. We’ll get him situated first.”I nodded as the doctor left while I stayed in the hallway before a doctor came to me.He walked right over to me. “Miss Katherine?”“Yes,” I said quickly, standing up before I knew it.He motioned for me to follow. “Let’s talk in my office.”I nodded and followed him

    Katherine’s povThere was a tap at my door after a few moments and a worried voice. “Hey, it’s me. Need anything? Or should we leave you alone with your misery?”I sniffled. “Come in.”She laughed and entered as she had a large bag of chips and two bottles of soda.She saw me and just kicked off her sandals, climbed onto my bed, cross-legged, and ripped the bag open.“What’s wrong?” She asked in concern. “What are you crying?”“I got fired.”Her eyes widened. "What? But you just started!""They found out I was pregnant." My voice broke on the last word.“You got fired for being pregnant? Wow. That’s a new record in job hunting and losing.”I scoffed. “Yeah.”“People are such assholes. Like it’s a disease or something. You didn’t apply to be a mountain climber, you applied to shuffle papers. What the hell does your belly have to do with that?”I laughed, a bitter little sound. “Apparently everything.”She shoved the chip bag at me. “Eat. Misery tastes better with salt.”I laughed and t
