Chapter 6 - Waiting for the parcel

Ruby was amazed at how Mishka managed to keep talking at such circumstances. She snorted and ordered for the drugged men to be taken away. Then, she squatted down and grabbed a fistful of Mishka's hair. She immediately screamed with agony, "You can not assault a pregnant woman like that. You..."

"Keep those words for now. When I call your precious Ronnie howl and scream as much as you want", saying so, Ruby forcefully threw her face aside and stood up.

She extended her left hand, "Give me the videotape."

The bodyguard immediately handed it over. They were scared at hoe Ruby handled the slut, making them wonder how the almighty Sara handled such a matter. She would be much scarier!

Ruby switched it on and ordered Mishka, "Speak."

And how brilliant of an actress Mishka was, she immediately wailed and cried pitifully, "Ronnie, save me! They...they will kill me. They will kill our baby!"

Ruby clicked her tongue. Utterly shameless! Though she had her body littered with bruises and bite marks, she dared to say that she was being bullied. Ruby gestured something to the guard standing nearby, and he immediately let loose one of the drugged men. The man pounced on Mishka, and her shredded clothes were ripped apart as he pressed on her bare skin. Mishka cried in agony, "Ah! Don't touch me! I need you! Please, Ronnie!"

Ruby stopped recording and tossed it to the guard nearby, "If I sent it for Oscars, you will land one."

Then, she turned to order the bodyguards as she eyed Mishka, "Tie her up. Let the burly men stay. We might need them again."

"This recording?"

"Send it when we are halfway through our destination."

"Yes, Ma'am."

Ruby left the room and the bodyguards quickly tied up the yelling Mishka.

...

Sara soaked herself in the warm bathtub while the cold shower drenched her hair. She felt a lot more clearheaded. Due to the heat, she was sweating. She soaked herself for a long time and then stood up to look at the mirror. The redness was usual but she felt a lot more comfortable. So, she quickly followed up with a cool shower.

She covered her bare body with the provided towel and slowly walked out of the bathroom. Her long hair stuck to her torso like ink. They gave her a mysterious aura with her caramel skin gleaming with water droplets under the dim lights.

She immediately slipped on the light blue bathrobe and used the towel to dry her hair. Just then, her phone rang with a familiar ringtone.

She answered it immediately, "Hello?"

"You seem okay", Ruby's voice chimed in, "How are you feeling?"

"I feel a lot better", Sara paused, "How far?"

"Work in progress!" Ruby exclaimed excitedly, "Waiting for the parcel!"

"Great!" Sara smirked, "That's killing two birds with a stone."

"En", Ruby answered, "Go to bed early. Lots on tomorrow."

"En."

Sara, then, heard Mishka crying and yelling over the phone, "Sara, I was wrong to... provoke you! Let me go!"

Sara smirked and hung up. She was indeed tired and she slipped under the blanket. She switched off the bedside lamp and went to sleep with a satisfying smile.

Outside an abandoned factory

Under the pitch darkness of the night, two powerful headlights approached furiously and forcefully screeched its brakes near the factory.

A man in messy clothes hurriedly stepped down from the car and rushed inside the abandoned factory.

He stumbled on the stairs leading underground. Suddenly, two pairs of strong hands pushed him forward. The stairs were made of aluminum and while being dragged, his face and body parts became scratched and bruised with constant dragging. The man could barely keep up, making him unable to scream either. His suffering came to an end when he was finally lifted from the stairs and was tossed away at a certain distance. He landed forcefully on the cold floor which made him flinch.

He grunted and slowly opened his eyes. His eyes met with a pair of black high heels. After much struggle, he moved his head a bit and looked up. His eyes moved to lock with a pair of gleaming, cold and dark eyes. He shuddered. Those pair of eyes, made one feel numb to their cores.
