Esmeralda's POVI stared at the screen, my breath hitching in my throat. Gabriel was in a concrete room, it looked like a basement. Similar to the same basement I was created, but still different. They were no tools, no machines. It was just empty."Like what you see, girl?"Mr Rick's voice was a low vibration that seemed to rattle through my bones. He was sitting in his high backed leather chair, watching me with a dark, intense hunger that made my skin prickle. He said he wasn't done with me yet, I mean I liked it but something told me he intended something far much worse for me and it had to do with Gabriel."Why?" I managed to whisper, my voice trembling. "He didn't do anything to you, why did you beat him so bad?""He dared to look at you," Rick hissed, standing up with a grace only a predator could carry.

They talked to me like I was a lonely child, offering me snacks and asking about my favorite colors, acting like they weren't paid by my mother to be friends with me.
