The last thing i remember was my hand being grabbed by Christopher.

I managed to open my eyes, my head spinning like i just took a hypnotic drug.

“You look so weak.”

I heard the voice dimly but I was able to recognize it easily.

I managed to move and that was when i noticed that i was tied up.

My habds were behind me and everytime i nudged, it felt like the rope got tighter. I tried moving harder to untie the eooe but i almost fell head front from my legs being tied to the bottom of the chair.

“What the fuck? How dare you tie a woman? Once i leave this place, you are going to jail!”

“Who said anything about you leaving? You know way too much Piper, we cannot risk it.”

“What do you plan on doing to me huh?”

I was internally scared but there was no way i was going ti accept defeat just yet, i needed to fight for what i wanted.

He came out of nowhere, the black mist disappearing and his plain figure showing.

He walked closer to me, his scent filling the air and suffocating.

He walked closer to me, his hands on my face, taunting me.

“What the fuck are you going to do with me?”

He slammed his hand on the chair, making me gasp and jump out of my skin.

“You know too much Lily,”

He voice was normal but they sounded like it was the devil’s.

“Why are you doing all this with my husband? What is the worth?”

“Your husband?”

I sighed heavily and breathe our, this was the wrong choice of words, there was no way that lying tongue, evil man would continue to be my husband.

I bit my lower lips and closed my eyes.

“I do not think you should consider Ethan your husband especially now that Selena is back, infact i do not think you should rate yourself anymore.”

The air was becoming heavier. I felt like the more we spoke, the more he lingered his intentions.

“You still have not told me whay you want to do with me.”

He pulled a chair from the side and sat opposite me, his eyes making dead contact with mine.

“What do you suggest we do? It is too risky to leave you in the city considering the fact that you know a lot but it is also riskier to kill you because people would ask questions.”

He scoffed at me and rolled his eyes.

I can already imagine the headlines.

“Wife of a billionaire, murdered..Ex came for business.”

“I need to drink water.”

I had a perfectly curated idea for my escape. My necklace was still on me and since it was made of pure silver, it was my only weapon and probably my only means out of here, alive.

“You want me to untie your hands?”

“I mean my legs are still tied so what are the chances of me running away?”

“Hmm.”

He looked at me with doubt but he stood up and left, coming back with a glass of water.

“How am i supposed to drink it?”

He trolled his eyes from my head to my toes and untied the rope holding my hands.

I felt the gush of blood through my hands again, and i touched my necklace to ensure it was still on me neck.

Cameron could maybe hear me too.

“Drink.”

I took the cup from his hands and had a mouthful of water, the water seeming to burn down the resentment i am having at the moment.

“Does Ethan know i am here?”

I managed to say, my facial expressions probably displaying so much disgust and resentment towards that name.

“I might be the primary mastermind towards everything, the muse but i do not work alone, Selena and Ethan are my accomplice.”

“Why are they doing all these and hiding so much?”

“Why are you snooping around?”

“I was going through my husband and i’s property.”

“Husband?”

He raised an eyebrow and me and stood up, leaving the room.

My hands went back to my necklace, flicking it and whispering lowly to make some sort of noise to ensure that i was still in contact with Cameroon.

“Can you hear me?”

“Do not reply. The necklace you are putting on has a secret knife weapon. Use it. Stay safe, we are still trying to ping your location.”

Christopher came back, this time with a big human sized duffel bag and a gallon.

“So, Piper, we are going to make this fast and easy. I want to move you to another location, information has it that Cameron and his cohorts are trying to ping us.”

“Where are you moving me too?”

“You will know when we get there,”

He got closer to me , crouching to untie me.

“This is your time to strike,”

As he crouched, i pulled off my necklace from my neck and held the string, and used the diamond piece to stab his back, targeting his spinal cord.

“Ah!”

He fell to the floor, his blood splattering all over my body and the floor.

My legs were almost untied and i loosened it fully.

I stood up, continued stabbing him till i was sure that he had passed out.

“Never mess with me,again.”

I traced through the building and found a door, rushing out to seek help.

I walked upfront, dizzy and lost, trying to find my way.

My eyeballs dimmed when i found a bright headlight coming closer. I crouched my eyes to see Selena driving with high speed to my direction.

She spotted me and increased the speed, aiming to hit me.

I moved out of the way but the bright light was still approaching.

She swerved to the side of the road where i managed to corner into…

The last thing i could remember was seeing black and my waking up in a hospital.
