I was reading a novel when I heard some noise at the door. I stood up to check it out. At first I thought it was dad but when I opened the door and standing in front of me was....a total stranger.
"Who are you and what are you doing here" I asked the young man in his early twenties with irritation visible in my voice. 'My novel is waiting for me, hurry up and tell me what you want already'. That was my thought and the reason for my irritation towards him.
"Where is your father" said the stranger
"I have no idea, now leave" I replied. 'Lies! total lies! I know where my dad is but I won't tell you that Mr stranger'.
He said nothing but the next second he started strolling towards me, he looked so intimidating that I just had to move back, he kept moving forward untill I hit the wall. Now I was trapped between him and the wall. 'Hey! I never said come in!...I mean, HELP!'.
"What are you do---" Before I could finish, he cut me off
"Where is your father" He asked again. 'This dude is really getting on my nerves'. I thought to myself. "I don't know where he is and even if I did I wouldn't tell you" I said now to his hearing. 'Hehe. I do know, but like I said, I won't tell you'. I giggled inwardly.
He was about to say something when the door swung open causing the both of us to look behind him.
"Get away from her!" My dad yelled as though I was about to die. That got me thinking 'Who is this dude and why the hell is dad so freaked out'. Nevertheless, I'm sure as hell not gonna get scared of him.
He gave my dad a devilish grin "You kept me waiting" He said while walking towards my dad. 'Dad run! he'll pin you to the wall!..What? Don't judge me! It's very traumatizing to be pinned to a wall you know!'.
"I'm sor---" My dad tried to speak but the young man who was strikingly beautiful cut him off.
"Where is it" He asked
'Odd. Aren't men supposed to be handsome? why is this one beautiful?' I blinked and looked again but I'm still seeing the same beautiful face.
It seems he got mad for some reason I wasn't really listening so I don't know why he's mad at dad. "There is no such place now speak or would you prefer dying and your daughter..." He paused and gave me a perverse look that I'm sure he wanted both me and dad to notice.
Let's say I have other plans for her" He said while averting his gaze from me and back to my father.
"That will not happen"My dad said with a stern voice.
"What kind of host are you, can't even serve your guest a thing" He blurted with a weird smile on face.
"You are not a guest, you're an intruder" My dad replied back with a hint of sarcasm in his voice. I noticed my dad was kinda restless as he was stealing glances at the side of the room I was standing at. As it I'd disappear the next second.
"Well then, I think I'll just take your daughter with me" He said, now with a smirk on his face.
'Say what now'. Before I was able to process what I just heard I was already being dragged out of my house. We reached outside then the young man stopped and asked me to say my last good byes. As I turned around I met my dad who was giving me a reassuring smile then he said
"Don't fight it, it's easier when you don't fight it"
'That doesn't help in any way dad!' I yelled inwardly.
The young man clutched his heart and gasped indicating that he was hurt by my dad who called him an 'it' but gave out a loud laugh afterwards and dragged me with him. I tried pulling, yanking even went ahead to bite him but he didn't let go and put me in his car then drove off.
We reached a castle like building then he took me inside and went upstairs to a particular room all the while dragging me along with him. 'i think this is the master's bedroom. Who cares! my hand hurts'. "Hey at least loosen up a little it hurts" I said. He let go entirely. I was about to say thank you when he said "Go take a shower, you stink" then went ahead to sit down on the bed.
'im so glad I didn't say thank you. such a rude fellow'
I thought.
"you seriously don't expect me to bathe here, right?" I said.
"yes, I do" he plainly said
"What's wrong with it" he asked
"Excuse me" I asked. 'Is he playing dumb or something'.
"what's wrong with it" he repeated.
"Well for starters, I can't possibly take a shower in a man's room, I'm a woman for Pete's sake! and I can't put my dirty clothes back on. What am I, a pig? oh and did I mention I'm a woman!" I yelled.
"come" he said.
I followed him and asked "Hey, Mr stranger. You never told me your name you know"
"Christian" he replied
"Christian....that's a nice name. So Mr Christian, don't you think your too beautiful for a man"
"You are quite the bold one aren't you?" he said.
"That doesn't answer my question" I countered.
"Most hostages are scared when they are taken from their families" He said
"I'm not most hostages" I replied. 'Is he taunting me'.
We reached another room then he said "Here, you can take a shower now". Before I could say thank you, he disappeared.
I went into the room and on the bed was an off shoulder green gown, it was a knee length gown that's fitted till the waist then flay from the waist to the knee. 'Why didn't he just bring me here if the cloth was already here' I thought.
