Nameless
My billionaire wife had just given birth when I was abducted and trapped in a sick, underground survival game.
While I was sprinting through the woods with our newborn strapped to my back, Scarlett’s best friend’s voice boomed through the PA speakers.
“Shouldn’t you be at home with your newborn and Damian? What are you doing here? Is your lover boy starting drama again?”
Scarlett chuckled, her voice full of resigned affection.
“Yeah. Jayden demanded some real entertainment. Damian thinks I have urgent work to take care of at the office, so he practically pushed me out the door while the kid was having surgery. He’s a sweet, naive idiot.”
I tapped against the security camera lens, desperate to get Scarlett’s attention, but Jayden’s terrified scream distracted her into hitting the shock button on her remote control.
The high-voltage electricity ran through me, and our newborn choked up blood, staining the earth. I curled around our son, sobbing in despair.
As footsteps crunched closer, the high-rollers raised their stakes.
It was a bet to see who would survive to the very end.
