Chapter 51: Bound

Anna turned her heavy head after an unknown time. A dull ache pulsed at the back of her skull as awareness began to seep in. The cold concrete bit into her cheek as she lay on the hard floor. She blinked slowly, her eyelids heavy as if weighed down by lead. A faint stench of a dumpster assailed her, and she scrunched her nose in disgust. She surveyed her surroundings as soon as her heavy eyelids opened. She was in a tiny, dark room, most likely a basement due to the lack of windows. A single bulb flickered above, its light forming a pale halo on the cracked floor.Her vision cleared enough to see her legs bound with a rope, her joggers smeared with dirt, and her sneakers were long gone. Other than her awkward position, everything else was still intact. She tried to move, but her wrists stung under the tight rope, causing a soft groan to escape her lips.None of her captors were with her in the room, and she almost squealed in excitement. That gave he

Chapter 52: the basement

“You have a valid point,” the second guy chuckled, his eyes brightening at her snarky attitude. He stood, looming over her as the bulb overhead hummed, and tapped the first guy on the shoulder. “This one is interesting. Too bad I won’t be around long enough to see how this plays out.”“Does that mean I get to keep my clothes on?” Anna asked, scooting over and leaning her back on the wall.“Disappointed?” The second guy smirked, rubbing his palms together. “Unfortunately, I’m in no mood for a lap dance right now. All I want to do is get the fuck out of this stinky place.” He turned to the first guy. “Chad, any response yet? This is taking too long.”“They are here.”The metallic clunk of the basement door opening sliced through the still air. The two kidnappers straightened and squared their shoulders as a woman in a sleek black suit descended the stairs with measured grace. Her hair was pulled back in a tight bun, and her heels clicked sharply on the concrete, hard enough to leave ma

Chapter 53: despair

“Turn on the camera,” the boss woman ordered one of her men, and grabbed a handful of Anna’s hair. “Before you inflate your self-importance, you are just a chess piece to me.” She laughed, yanking Anna’s hair back. “I want your dear husband to beg for mercy.”Anna tensed, her breathing shallow, but still met the woman’s gaze without flinching. “Go ahead,” she snarled. “Do your worst.”Enraged, the boss woman nodded to her men. One opened a black case on the table, revealing a set of tools gleaming coldly under the overhead lamp: pliers, knives, and a small blowtorch. She lifted a pair of pliers, weighing them thoughtfully in her hand. “I always start with the fingers,” she said almost as if sharing a recipe. She gripped Anna’s right hand, forcing it flat against the table.With a swift motion, the woman closed the pliers around Anna’s pinky finger, nearly crushi

Chapter 54: Try not to die

“Liam!” Anna called, relief washing over her. At least she wasn’t alone anymore. Whether they would make it out of this alive was up for debate, but his mere presence meant a lot to her that he would ever realize. “You came!”“Being a widower isn’t on my bucket list this year,” Liam said, dodging a crowbar from one of the bouncers. The other henchmen spun, reaching inside their jackets for weapons. He barreled into the Muscleman first, driving a hard punch into his gut. Muscleman doubled over, only to take a brutal knee to the face that sent him sprawling on the floor, unconscious. “Babe, try not to die.”Another henchman lunged with his knife flashing, ready to drive it into Liam’s back. Liam sidestepped, grabbing the man’s wrist and slamming it against the corridor wall. The knife clattered away as Liam landed a crushing elbow to the side of his head, dropping him like a sack of potatoes.The woman stood frozen for a moment, her eyes wide. Two seconds later, she snarled and pulled a

Chapter 55: Is he alive?

The waiting room smelled like antiseptic and bleach. The overhead lights buzzed faintly, far too bright for this late hour. Anna sat hunched in the stiff plastic chair, fingers twisting the hem of her t-shirt, eyes locked on the double doors marked: Authorized Personnel Only.She hadn’t blinked in what felt like hours. Her husband had been inside for forty-two minutes.The nurse had said they were “doing everything they could.” That someone would come talk to her soon. But no one had come.Her mouth felt like she’d been trekking in a desert. Her knees ached. She hadn't eaten since God knows when, and she had no phone with her. She could have played a game or scrolled social media to distract herself. Hell, she could have even fidgeted with it. She kept hearing his weak voice and replaying how pale he looked as the gurney wheeled him in.Her ears rang.A wave of nausea came first. Then a hollow coldness in her chest, like the floor had opened beneath her. She stood up, or thought she di

Chapter 56: Do I have a terminal illness?

A long time later, a soft knock came through the door, snapping Anna out of her racing thoughts. A young nurse walked in holding a clipboard.“Anna, sorry to interrupt.” She offered an apologetic smile, but there was nothing apologetic about it. If anything, she was more than happy to interrupt. “One of the doctors asked me to bring these in person. Your lab results came back from earlier, when you fainted. Nothing urgent, I promise.”Anna straightened a little. “Do I have a terminal illness or something?”“Close, but no,” the nurse laughed a little at her unexpected question. “Let’s just say you’ve got a lifetime responsibility.”“What do you mean?” Anna shuffled in her seat, suppressing the panic rising in the pit of her stomach. Did something go wrong? Omg, was she dying? Was her life about to be turned upside down? Good lord, don’t let it be a debilitating problem.“Here,” the nurse smiled and handed a piece of paper to Anna without answering her question. “Read this and you’ll un

Chapter 57: Welcome to the family

“Somebody shoots me right now,” Liam groaned, covering his face with his good hand. Anna sat back in her chair, her smile stiff. She gave a gentle nod of acknowledgement to Grandma and excused herself, leaving him to deal with the devil alone. Smart move, Anna. He would have loved to walk away, too, if only he weren’t stuck on this bed. Dealing with his grandmother was the last thing he wanted to do, but he didn’t have many choices left. He dropped his hand beside him and resigned to his fate. “One of my favorites has arrived.”“Too late for that,” grandma said, unbothered, “You have already checked that off your bucket list. Wish for something else.” She placed her parcel on the small table next to the window and walked closer to him, inspecting his injuries. “About favorites, the feeling is mutual.”“How could I forget that?” he gave a dry chuckle, pretending that it didn’t strike a nerve. His grandmother’s weird way of showing love always left him conflicted.“Because you are dumb?

Chapter 58: The queen of bad luck!

“Did she thank me?” Anna asked, her eyes wide. Of all the things she expected, his grandmother thanking her wasn’t one of them. That lady just talked about offing people as if it were a normal occurrence. Who would have expected a ‘thank you’ after that? Not ending her was already a big enough thank you.“I am surprised she even has that word in her vocabulary,” Liam answered, equally as shocked. A hint of mischief appeared, and a slight smile bloomed on his face. “Hmm…” he tapped his chin, pretending to be in deep thought. “The only time I’ve heard her use that word was when someone was about to meet a tragic end.”“Oh my God,” Anna breathed, stumbling back a step as her face drained of all color. “Does that mean I’m going to die now?” Her voice pitched up in disbelief, teetering on the edge of panic. She clawed both hands into her hair, raking it back until her fingers tangled at the nape, fisting a good chunk as if she could anchor herself with the pain. Her eyes were wild, darting

Chapter 59: You stink

The fading light of the evening sun spilled into the room as Liam shifted restlessly in the hospital bed, wincing as the fabric of his shirt clung to his side. It had been a long day; too many vitals checks, too many polite nurses with cold hands, and one unfortunate incident involving hospital mashed potatoes he refused to discuss.Anna sat nearby, her legs tucked beneath her, and her hair pulled into a ponytail that curled at the ends. She’d changed into a clean T-shirt and soft leggings. Someone must have delivered those. She'd showered, changed, and slipped back in before he even noticed she was gone. Her eyes kept drifting back to him, lips twitching in amusement every time he moved.“You okay?” she asked, feigning innocence. “I feel gross.”“You look gross,” she said, her nose upturning a little.He turned to her slowly. “Wow. That’s the kind of emotional support I’ve been missing.”She smirked and leaned closer, scrunching her nose exaggeratedly as she sniffed the air. “Okay,

Chapter 60: I couldn't resist

Anna reached for the metal handle, her back to him, and turned it slowly. Pipes groaned and gave way to the steady rush of water, the stream hitting the tiles with a low, soothing rhythm. Anna extended her hand under it, her wrist angled, testing the temperature with a slow swirl of her fingers.Her body moved in subtle shifts, her back arching as she leaned in slightly, and her muscles flexed gently as she adjusted the pressure. The water kissed her skin in scattered droplets, making her glisten under the bathroom lights.“Too cold,” she murmured to herself, twisting the knob again.Liam swallowed hard, his gaze tracing the line of her spine, the way a single drop slid from her shoulder down to the curve of her lower back. Every movement was natural, yet it tugged at something primal in him. She wasn’t trying to be seductive.Anna tested the water again, letting it run down the length of her forearm this time, her breath rising in a qui
