Chloe's POV:
I tried opening my eyes but I couldn't, it was as if I was heavily drugged, I could hear people around me, couldn't understand what they were talking about but definitely multiple people were there. And it felt like as if I was moving, as if I was in a car or a bus.
I tried again, really hard this time to open my eyes and could open just my left eye, just a little and the sunlight hit me so hard that I went back to the darkness.
I shot my eyes open only to find that I am tucked in a comfortable bed, it was a big room with beautiful art work, it was as big as any presidential suite of a five star hotel. I don't know how long I have been unconscious, or how long I have been here or how did I reach here... Wait, where am I ? I looked at my clothes and they are intact, I realised I need to pee or else my bladder will burst. I got out of bed in order to find the restroom, I am still dizzy and this room is enormous, I tried the big door, I think that's the way out, but it's locked from outside, oh my god am I being held captive? I turned around and found another simple door right opposite to the bed, I went there and finally I found the restroom. I did my business and saw the necessary toiletries were placed all brand new, packed. I saw a toothbrush, and brushed my teeth, washed my face, cleaned myself and went out. I tried looking for my sling bag or my phone.
What about Renee? Oh my god she must be going crazy looking for me... Or what if they got her too.. no, no, no please god not her. I tried pushing the big door but it was useless, I sat on the bed and my head was in my hand when I heard something right outside my door, and just like that it was unlocked and just a little bit of it was pushed open. I waited for someone to come, for something to happen but it didn't, so I decided to head out.
I peeked outside only to found that the room outside was a living room, and it was bigger than the bedroom, big couches, paintings, pillars, this place was more of a palace than a captive unit, I scanned the surroundings to see if there was anyone, but nobody was there, does that mean can I leave? Just like that?
I hesitated a bit than I looked at the exit gate and knew what I needed to do, I took my heels off and ran towards the gate, while crossing the room I noticed a painting on the right wall, A big beautiful painting of ME ! I froze looking at it, I couldn't move and just kept stairing at it. I was trying to understand what was happening when I heard a voice from behind me which made me jump and turned towards him. He said - Hey baby girl, looking for something ? And the terror started to rise when I realised he was the same guy I saw in that ally, oh my god he kidnapped me.
He looked at me from top to bottom, licked him lower lip, and looked me straight in the eye and said Finally we meet Chloe.
I was so scared that I started shivering, it was as if the air was leaving my lungs and I was chocking.
Relax, I am not a ghost Chloe, sit, we need to talk, where's Renee I asked him, is she okay? What did you do to her, if you dare to hurt her I swear I will... You will what? He snapped, walking towards me slowly like a predator ready to attack it's prey, huh? What will you do little one ? He pushes me towards one of the big pillars and crushed his body into mine, our faces were so close we could feel each other's breath. He was dangerous and very rough, they way he was holding my wrists I knew he could break it if he wants to. I looked at him, and asked him , more of like begged him where's Renee, please tell me she's okay, she is my best friend please.
You mean your cousin Renee, short pixie-pink hair, tattoo girl, well yeah, she is okay, didn't touch her, I don't want her, she has nothing to do with it, although Martin's did hide you from me for 5 years and I can be mad about it Chloe, but since I found you now I think it would be best to keep others out of it, afterall it's between Soros and Mikaelson he said this while stepping away from the pillar and pushing me towards the couch.
I knew who he was, he was the heir to the great legacy his father built. Soros and Mikaelson, we go a long way, our families have been working together for generations. My father worked for his father, they are the most powerful, influential family in the underworld. The biggest Gangster, the family who killed mine and now they are here for me.
John Soros is the boss, the head of the Soros family, his wife died giving birth to their son, the only thing John cared about is his son Arthur and his illegal business, he ruled the world and I am sure he still does. I remembered the message they wrote on our wall after killing my family, - "Nobody walks out of our world Alive, and nobody crosses the boss. We will find the little one and we will skin her alive" I was here to pay the debt with my life, this was the punishment John Soros sentenced us for leaving his empire and choosing a normal life over his world.
