As Wendy applied the blush, she pressed it firmly against my cheeks, her irritation evident in her voice. Her emotional reaction made me doubt the existence of this secret admirer. Could there really be someone crushing on me?Still skeptical, I probed further, having no interest in romance at the moment. "Wendy, will he be at the cosplay event?""You want to meet him? I can call him right now," Wendy exclaimed, reaching for her bag."Stop teasing, Wendy!" I pleaded, grabbing her hand to prevent her from grabbing her phone."He would be heartbroken if he knew how you're reacting," Wendy dramatically clutched her chest."We're not a good match," I protested."How can you know that without even meeting him?" Wendy tilted my chin up, examining my makeup. "Give him a chance. Give yourself a chance.""It's not easy to move on from heartbreak. Maybe someday I'll be ready for a new relationship, but not right now."Luke's face suddenly flashed in my mind, causing me to falter. Afraid

"Bro, which one are we supposed to kidnap?" asked the man holding me as he shoved me into the car.Wendy, a fitness enthusiast, was in much better shape than me. She managed to brace her foot against the car and use the leverage to slam her captor into a nearby vehicle."Feisty bitch!" the man growled through gritted teeth, clearly in pain from the impact. He retaliated by gripping Wendy's throat.Watching Wendy's face contort in pain through the car window, I felt like an ant on a hot pan. Desperate to help, I headbutted the man next to me, trying to break free."Settle down, you!" he snarled, yanking my hair and shoving me back into the seat. The pain in my scalp made me break out in a cold sweat. Before I could recover, Wendy was roughly pushed into the car beside me."Bro, if we take both, it's double the pay. We've hit the jackpot!" exclaimed the heavyset man restraining me, his voice brimming with excitement."Idiot! They only asked for one. What if the client finds out and

With our hands and feet bound, maintaining balance was challenging. We squirmed on the ground like caterpillars, relying on each other as we struggled to sit up.This simple action drained our energy. We rested for a while, backs pressed together, attempting to untie each other's wrists.Our arms were tied behind our backs, making it impossible to see the knots. We had to rely solely on touch.Closing our eyes heightened our sense of touch.Every slight movement sent a shooting pain through our wrists, but I gritted my teeth and endured it.After several failed attempts, our fingertips finally touched. I could feel Wendy's fingers trembling slightly.Knowing her wrists were as injured as mine, I reassuringly grasped her hand.Encouraged, she continued her efforts.The pain caused beads of cold sweat to form on our foreheads, trickling down our cheeks and dripping onto my body.The sweat stung my eyes. I tried to raise my shoulder to wipe my face, but even this simple action wa

As my fingers brushed against a round, hard object beneath the fabric of my skirt, I felt a faint electric current. Intrigued, I lifted the hem.Tucked under the short skirt was a smooth, black object that resembled a chess piece."What's that?" Wendy asked, noticing the item in my hand."I'm not sure," I replied. The electric sensation grew stronger as I held it, and I could hear a faint buzzing when I listened closely. "I found it on my skirt."Luke turned around. "Let me see it."Knowing Luke's extensive knowledge, I handed it to him.As our fingertips touched, a tingling sensation shot through my hand.I quickly withdrew my hand.Luke casually examined the "chess piece."He signaled the driver to pull over.Wendy started to speak, but Luke gestured for her to be quiet. Wendy immediately understood that the object was something sinister and fell silent.Luke handed the object to the driver, typing something on his phone.The driver nodded and left the car with the object

Wendy had always been black and white in her feelings. To her, Sarah's arrival had stolen her father's undivided attention, and she treated her stepmother with cold indifference.Over the years, the two had managed a fragile peace.Sarah's affectionate gesture made Wendy instinctively recoil, and she shifted to the far side of the bed.Ignoring Wendy's reaction, Sarah gently touched her forehead. "Don't worry, sweetheart. We're here. No one will hurt you."Wendy smirked coldly.That smirk caused Mr. Smith's expression to harden. "I told you to call your siblings. Where are they?""I've already notified them," Sarah replied. "They were very worried when they heard about Wendy being kidnapped and hospitalized. They should be here soon.""The police have already started investigating the kidnapping! You'd better pray this has nothing to do with them!" Mr. Smith's words were sharp and cold.Sarah hurriedly tried to explain, "They may be a bit irresponsible sometimes, but they're go
