40% Hazardous Affection / Chapter 2: Now she's missing?

Chương 2: Now she's missing?

All the people standing under the bridge got one thing to put in their mouth, and thankfully, there's a restaurant nearby. So, the people that have the money can take shelter there.

Hale taps on her phone severally like she would die if she doesn't get what she wants.

"Damn..." she mutters as she continues clicking and looking for different means by which she can get her brother on the phone.

'The number you dialed, is switched off'

Hale's hand drops hearing the stupid speaker from the stupid phone. How can someone she got not quite long ago, switch his phone off that moment? What's that shit all about!

She dips her phone into her pocket, but her gaze diverts to the shadow that's reflecting on the ground through the light of the moon.

The shadow moves closer to her, it overshadows her and becomes way taller.

The heart of Hale remains calm as the thought...

"I know it's you, Alex"

Alex bursts out laughing from behind Hale, while his sister rolls her eyes and turns to him.

"Really funny" she retorts with a sarcastic tone.

"Y-You should have seen your face!... It was-"

"Did you bring the car, or not?"

Alex clears his throat. It's obvious his elder sister isn't in her mood to joke, so he better holds his peace.

"Right this way, milady"

Hale rolls her eyes and follows him gently, her dress gradually getting soaked by the rain pouring on them as they leave beneath the bridge.

The rain soaks both Hale and Alex in no time. Though, Hale immediately let loose her umbrella as they both hurried to the car.

"Oof! Never thought Miss Hale knew how to run"

"Shut up" Alex laughs hysterically as they both buckle their seatbelts and Alex starts the car and zooms off to a nearby hotel to spend the night.

"Sorry, I had to drop Milana off at her house before I headed to the airport"

"So... You're still relating with her, right?" Hale asks as she peeps outside, through her car window.

"Umm... Speaking of Milana, I think I got you a burger, where is it?" Alex pretends to find the invincible burger, which he never got.

"In your ass?" the tone of Hale has turned to the other side of negativity.

{Oh God}

"Really Alex? Really? What do you see in Milana, that makes your heart swell anyway?"

"That is who my heart is in, Hale. Why don't you like her?"

"Because she looks like all those people that make promises and fail in doing it! I am not just talking about myself, I am talking about you, Alex!"

Alex chuckles like he knows everything in the world. He chuckles again and this time with a shake of his head.

He faces his sister and rants like parents trying to correct their wrong child.

"Milana is my girlfriend, Hale! She isn't like you that pisses all men she finds herself relating with! She's different! Friendly, kind, and generous! She is everything to me! She is... My wife!"

Hale gasps lightly hearing that Milana isn't like her and every other thing he said.

The rain poured down heavily and people watched as the speeding car abruptly stops when the skimpily dressed lady with a hat and a purse opens the door of the car, not minding the speed, and ran off in the darkness with the handsome man yelling her name.

"Hale! Hale!"

But even as he yelled her name, she left him and never turned back.

Hale pants as she got to a very dark area with only a thin line of light displaying vertically in an abandoned apartment.

She didn't look at her right, nor her left... Put of tiredness, she leaned on the wall and panted with her hand on her chest.

"Damn..." she whispers as she turns to the other side to see two Hazel eyes staring at her with a black mask.

Hale's eyes widen as a blue and green pair of eyes appears, both beside the Hazel eyes.

Before Hale could do anything, a red spray got sprayed on her face and she went blank.

Each one of the men in masks smiles widely. They sure have gotten another one.

Alex is literally soaked in the rain as he searches everywhere in the lighted area for his sister. He refuses to go in deeper knowing fully well that Hale hates darkness.

She'd rather sleep with the most dangerous animal in the world than sleep in darkness. So he doesn't bother to go into the deeper place where she entered.

His forehead is filled with his sweat mixed with the rainwater. His mind spinning like the tire of a speedy car but is about to lose from within his mind.

"Hale..." he whispers as his whole body gets wet with rain falling heavily on him.

He can't possibly think straight right now.

"Where the hell did you go?"

The men in black suits inside a black Mercedes car stare at the man getting soaked out in the rain and each of them smiles mischievously.

Even though Alex saw these men, he looked away and back to where Hale had entered. Is she alright? And where is she?

The black Mercedes speed down the highway heading to the airport where they have already booked a flight.

The man sitting next to the driver puffs a hearty and new cigarette and then blows on it. He then digs it between his lips.

A little smile spreads upon his lips as his hat covers his face haphazardly.

"Boss will be delighted to see this one. Especially since she's the daughter of the Martins. Can't wait to see what will come upon that hard face of his" the driver mutters and the man with a hat and a cigarette chuckles.

"Exactly what came into my mind too... " he stared at the lady laying fully dressed in her hat now on the floor of the car and her necklace hanging on her neck but now also on the ground of the car.

Her clothes cover her inner parts making him want to rip everything off her body and stare at what beholds itself inside her.

"He will love this one, indeed"

The car moves at high speed making the guy puff a cigarette to smile, and the two behind them to laugh like drunkards.

The driver sets his cap well and faintly smiles.

Their boss will be more than glad to see what's coming right towards him.

"I can't find her, I've searched everywhere"

Alex complains about his sister on the phone to the police with the hope that the police might come up with something.

"I'm sorry Sir, we can't come up with anything if you do not know where she went to and why she did"

"What?! Give the phone to the head of this department"

"He is not available. I'm very sorry Sir"

But before Alex says anything more, the phone hangs up and he just stares at the place where Hale entered with water pouring on him from the heavens up high.

Just a moment ago, he was talking to his sister...

Now she's missing?

TWENTY-THREE HOURS LATER...

The lady dressed in a shapeless but beautiful garment moves and stretches making the maids in the room quit the whisperings they engaged themselves in.

The eye-blinding light coming from the window strikes her eyes, making her hand raise to obstruct it as she struggles to sit upright.

Her eyes widen when the sight of three ladies, dressed in short gowns and shorter aprons hit her hard.

"Who-Who are you?"

The three ladies look like they need help... Serious one.

"Where am I?"

The fidgeting ladies hang on to the middle lady who looks a bit bold, but afraid at the same time.

"I'm sorry, we would love to answer your questions... But please, hurry up and come with me the-"

"What is taking them so long to wake up?!" The faint voice of a ruthless man pierces everyone's ears lightly.

"Ma'am, please come with me... Please"

Seeing the teary eyes of these three makes the lady on the bed wanna cry.

She quickly climbs off the bed and follows them to wherever seems right for them to take her.

The four ladies make their way out of the door, after giving the lady on the bed a thorough fave washing to clear her invincible eye bags.

The lady that was on the bed a moment ago now gets surrounded immediately they all step out of the room.

Men from different corners eye her suspiciously, some smile like fools, and some smile mischievously.

"Just ignore them" one of the ladies whispers as they all made their way to another darker room.

"Well... Well... Who we got here?" a guy with blonde curly hair disengages himself from the people he is talking to, to have a look at the lady in the beautiful garment.

"She's for the boss"

"She has to go through me first before the boss" he retorts one of the ladies following them.

The little eye contact they have looks deadly but got broken by the guy.

"My name is Richard Hasward..." He states coming closer to the middle and main lady in the game, and not her maids that are following her.

"May I know yours?"

His question appears as a clap of thunder to the lady, making her hold her breath before answering.

"I am Hale Martins"

Everyone gasps in shock. Hale Martins?

The kidnappers went mad, to the extent of kidnapping a girl from the Martins family?!

Though scared, Richard still caresses her face with his thumb and smiles, just not to seem suspicious.

"Hale... Nice to meet you" he whispers.

Hale's heart is pounding like a mortar. What the sausage rolls is this place?!

"Come with me"

Richard pulls her away from the maids gently, making her look back at the three ladies who have some kind of angry expression on their faces.

Richard leads the way down the dark hallway until they get to a door that's the way forward a bit.

He looks behind him to ask her "Are you ready?"

Hale, not knowing what to say, quietly hums a positive reply and that gives Richard permission to open the door.

As they enter, the body of Hale starts to malfunction a bit.

Goosebumps, big ones, start to grow on her body like the size of the men's eyes staring at her.

Only six females, plus her making seven, are on the stage-like platform that's in front of the audience.

Richard retrieves to a sit in the crowd, as the white studio lights strike her eyes, making her keep wondering where she is.

"Oh, shit..."


Chương 3: You've been picked

Hale feels the hotness of very unusual urine that's passing down and in between her legs.

"Ri-Richard..." she whispers as she watches Richard step into the crowd and like a ghost, he disappears without a trace.

Oh boy... This is going to be hot... With the way everything's going.

"Welcome Gentlemen who have come together today to witness the selection of the Wife of our Chairman and President of the Dark House. He is absent as our usual rule states he should be and the men in the house are to choose a capable and faithful woman before she meets her husband... "

Hale's eyebrows knit in confusion. What does that suppose to mean?

"As the general rule states, each lady standing here today are from rich and well-known homes and families, don't worry, your reputations won't go down the drail"

(Uhh... We know, duh)

The crowd of men is killing, men! Their eyes are extinguishing.

"Ladies, one of you will be picked to be the wife of the Chairman of the Dark House, who I absent. Only his wife can get to him as a female person... "

Hale raised a brow. That's interesting.

"And don't think the remaining six ladies are going to go like that. The remaining will get wedded to the closest friends of the Chairman and together, they will all work under the wife of the President"

Uh, shit-

Hale's eyes are dainty. Her mind is brainwashing itself and she does not know how it is happening, oh my gosh!

"The first round is the introduction, good luck to you, Ladies"

Everywhere go silent and for a minute, Hale thought everything is finally over.

A normal human being would ask where her ears were when the speaker talked about an introduction.

A man walks up to them in a white suit, coming from backstage, and stretches his arm with a microphone to the first lady.

She collects it simultaneously and watches him as he returns to his position, backstage.

"What your name?" the voice of a man that can hardly be seen in the crowd asks and the lady answers, though frightened and scared.

"Amy Jay" The men seated, most of them got hats on, dark shades, and cool black suites.

They also got face masks on... All of them.

Maybe that's a means to cover up their identities.

"How old are you?"

"22"

The man says nothing but continues to question further.

"What would be your main priority on the man you are yet to marry?"

Excuse me?

Hale chokes but holds back the cough...Did he just ask a private family question? What is wrong with him?

"My Family"

And the fool is even answering, interesting.

Hale tries to hold back a scream of insults ready to burst out of her mouth in any minute now.

"Give it to the next lady"

The lady in a bright blue garment collects the mic with shaky hands.

"Name"

"Jess Mills"

"Age?"

"30"

Oops... They got someone older than their boss.

Eeeesh... That's bad.

"Next"

The next lady receives the microphone like if she doesn't win this match she would die!

Frightened people can be funny sometimes.

"Name?"

"Laurel Devis'son"

The guy asking the questions allows a chuckle to escape his mouth which is heard across the hall through the sharpness of the microphone in front of him.

"Age?"

"25"

Same age as their boss. Hot the right type.

But she is the right type for him though.

"Next"

Two more ladies and Hale is up.

She can't wait to fire these people with what is in her mind now.

"Name"

"Alexis Narrenda"

Her voice is the softest sound anyone on earth has ever heard. Why does she sound like this?

"Age?"

"23"

"What would be your family priority if you marry him"

"Uh... Honestly, I will like to know who this man is and why I am here"

All the men immediately engage in thorough discussions, whisperings aiming from one place to another.

"Next"

After a while of discussing God knows what within themselves, he finally opens his stinking mouth, to call the next female.

"Name?"

"Mary Tyler"

"Age?"

"19"

The man seated says nothing but stares at this lady in astonishment.

19 years old that looks like she is over 35? Has she been feeding well? Taking all balanced diets?

Or moreover, is she lying to them? She looks so.

"Who do you think we are?" the man asks and Mary tries to hold the water in her bladder from pouring down continuously.

"Next..."

All eyes settle on Hale as she boldly takes the mic from Mary, ready to shoot at them all answers that come to her tongue.

"Name?"

"Hale Martins"

"Age?"

"20"

"What would be your-"

"Depends on how the man is" The man sitting, relaxed, and listening to what they are saying, widens his eyes and sits well.

This is a very good lady to hang up with.

The eyes of the men seated make Hale proceed further.

"Don't you think it's rude, for you to force ladies like us to marry people we know nothing about? This so-called president does not know us, nor do we know him.

My family or any other priority is who I know, not who I don't know"

The men stare at the lady in agreement but say nothing.

The ear deposit hung around the ear of the man asking questions beeps and he presses it to listen to what his boss had to say through it.

The man seated on the chair in a very dark office with the latest plasma television hanging up and he is watching what is happening in his studio, chuckles.

"I like this one" he whispers and the man asking the questions that are in the studio smiles widely.

"Miss Hale..."

Ooops... Hale made a mistake by showing off her boldness, right?

"You've been picked"

The whole world of Hale came crashing down on the whole studio as the men whispered and the ladies also standing there looks excited.

But their excitement wipes off the moment they remind themselves that they will all marry people under this President of theirs and they are going to be working under this lady.

Anger overwhelms them.

Especially those that have never been under anybody their entire life due to laziness or the wealthiness of their families didn't just want them to.

Hale is fidgeting but she doesn't show it. She never does.

"And what makes you think so? Am I not the one that supposed to get rejected?"

The man in a separate office, even in another environment not close to the building where the others are smiles as he watches through the television hanging in his office that is enabling him to see what is happening in his company's dorm. He then speaks to the man asking questions through the ear deposit.

"Bring her here tonight. She will sign that contract today, whether she likes it or not"
