Part 18 (2/2)
c.r.a.p.
Opening my eyes slowly I took in the room with blurry vision. My body was laid on an ugly brown rug that could easy be a hundred years old and the three men that had grabbed me outside my apartment were lounging on a green couch.
Tattoo face noticed I was awake first. Chuckling he got off the couch and crouched in front of me, ”Scream all you want now girl no one's going to hear you.”
G.o.d wasn't that the truth no one would even know I was gone. I'd been ignoring everyone for the last three days so a call to me that wasn't picked up wouldn't raise alarm. I was screwed, before anyone even knew I was missing I would probably be dead.
Ok so what did one do when being held captive by three scary looking men? Crying seemed like a good idea but my head hurt way too much for that, screaming and yelling was out too, thinking apparently was out as well, I wasn't doing a very good job of it, it hurt and I was freaking tired.
”Get Adam, tell him she's awake.” Tattoo face said a little loud for my liking.
Turning my head slightly towards a window I saw that it was still dark out, that was good right it was dark out when they grabbed me so it meant I hadn't been here long, I hoped.
An older man with long black hair tied at his neck and a ridiculous looking goatee came into view, followed by two people I knew or thought I knew, they looked like the people Jonah and Denny had been with in the alley, just a lot cleaner. That night both had been in jeans and t-s.h.i.+rts, Shark I thought his name was looked more like a surfer, wavy bleach blond hair that looked like it was never brushed and sea blue eyes, now his hair was slicked back, slacks and a dress s.h.i.+rt replaced the jeans and t-s.h.i.+rt.
”Why is there a woman on my floor?” The one with long hair asked tattoo face.
”You told us to get Mika's player. Black hair, blue eyes, last name Rees.” Tattoo face said kneeling back down beside me, grabbing a chunk of my hair and pulling violently, he shook his hand causing me to scream, ”See black hair,” his finger pride my eye open, ”Blue eyes and her name is Olivia Rees.”
”Mika's player is a male you f.u.c.king moron.” Long hair shouted, shaking his head as he vibrated with rage.
”But we tracked her.” Tattoo face said finally letting go of my hair.
”My office, now.” Long hair hissed through his teeth, ”Shark I'm sorry, could you give us a minute.”
”Go, but Adam, I don't have all day.” Shark said leaning up against the wall next to his partner.
The door shut firmly behind the last man, leaving me alone with Shark and his friend.
Trying to sit up so I could maybe, hopefully get out of here before they came back a hand pushed me back down, ”Listen very carefully Adam and his boys are nothing like Jonah and Denny. Right now Adam is telling them to take you somewhere and kill you. You need to give them a reason not to, tell them whatever you want, just make sure you say J will kill them for this and Vinnie will let him. Don't say it like a lie, say it like the truth it is, china doll.” Stepping away from me Shark leaned back up against the wall and begun picking his nails.
Adam and his boys came in a seconds later before I could process what had just happened.
”Where were we Shark?” Adam said gesturing for Shark to leave ahead of him as the three men came to me tattoo face pulling me up by my hair again.
”Are you going to kill me?” That wasn't what I wanted to say oh G.o.d I was going to die the pain was clouding my brain I couldn't think straight.
”Yes, but first we're going to play with you.” He said with a creepy smile running a finger down my body.
No no no, I was going to throw up. ”Touch me and J will kill you. Vinnie will let him, might even help.” I snapped causing Adam to spin around so fast he almost fell over.
”You know Vinnie?” Adam screeched shocked.
”I'm dating J, a.s.shole.” I spat trying to pull myself away from tattoo face whose hand was digging painfully into my hip.
”You three have really done it this time.” Adam roared throwing his hand into the air.
”I'm feeling charitable Adam, so I'm going to give you some advice, call D and J explain your boys f.u.c.ked up and return her to them without hurting another hair on her head,” Shark turned looking straight at tattoo face, his face going incurably hard, ”That means you f.u.c.kwad.” He hissed. ”Call me after you teach your boys a lesson Adam.” Turning on his heels Shark walked out the door with his friend leaving me alone with four men who might still kill me.
”Get your hand off her hair, untie her, get her some ice and for the love of something holy get her off the freaking floor.” Adam screamed flinging his body round like a five year old having a fit. ”Do it now,” Adam barked, ”I'm going to go call D.”
”You're really going to tell them we took J's girl?” Tattoo face yelled.
”Be lucky I'm calling the saner one of the two.” Adam yelled as he walked out of the room Pulling a knife out tattoo face cut the rope holding my hands behind my back. Pins and needles spiked down my arm as blood rushed through my veins. Roughly taking my tingling arm the youngest looking of the three pushed me on to the couch that had the pounding in my head hurting a lot worse and stars exploding in my vision.
Reaching my hand up to my forehead I pulled in a sharp breath as my finger traced a cut along a big b.u.mp.
Coming back into the room tattoo face threw a blue ice pack at me. Not wanting to push my luck asking for a towel to wrap the ice pack in I held it close but not touching to my forehead and holy h.e.l.l did that feel good. Now if I could just keep myself from throwing up I'd be good.
Time seemed to crawl by or maybe it just went slower because I kept nodding off only to snap my eye painfully open when I realized it wasn't a good idea to sleep when three people were staring at you like they wanted to kill you.
As I started to lose the fight to keep my eyes open I heard Denny's yelling voice, smacking the door open that had me cringing away from the noise Denny flew towards me while Cole and Ben surrounded us, guarding Denny's back.
Carefully putting his hand under my chin Denny lifted my face, gently pulling the ice pack away. Denny's eyes widen turning a shade darker as a muscle jumped in his jaw and his teeth clenched together loudly. For some reason it was the anger on Denny's face that finally had me crying.
”Don't cry sweetheart,” Denny said wiping my tears away with his thumb, ”I'm going to deal with Adam and his boys, and then I'm going to take you to Jonah yeah?”
”Yeah.” I whispered crying a little harder, I just wanted to be home with Jonah, Denny, Mason and my sweet puppy.
Putting my hand with the ice packed back to my forehead Denny turned to face the others. ”B eyes on Olivia.” Nodding Ben stepped back turning his body so he could watch me but still have Denny's back. ”Ok Adam lets state the obvious, I'm p.i.s.sed as all h.e.l.l. What the f.u.c.k were you thinking?”
”That's really none of your business.” Adam said his voice cracking.
”Really, my brother's girl getting hit with a gun by one of your boys is none of my business? Wrong, it's very much my business and you better offer up the information I want to know or I'm going to make it Vinnie's business. Want to know what Vinnie will do Adam?” Adam shook his head no, ”Too bad I'm going to tell you, Vinnie will let J do whatever he wants and boys, just so you know, that's the love of J's life. If you think he won't kill each one of you slowly you're very much mistaken. Now talk Adam.”
Thinking about it for a minute Adam shook his head, ”Word is Mika's got his top boy poking his nose into business around town. Did a little digging found the last name Rees thought we would pay him a visit only my boys f.u.c.ked that all up as you can see.”
”Olivia had a brother in the drug scene, he's dead. If her brother was connected to Mika he isn't anymore. Olivia is off your radar, got it?”
”Got it.”
”I also want a marker.” Denny said making Adam's face redden.
”Fine.” Adam spat, ”Are we done?”
”No, now I want to know which one hit her.” Without hesitation Adam pointed to tattoo face. Stepping forward Denny pulled his arm back and smacked tattoo face in the nose with bone breaking force. Tattoo face landed on his b.u.t.t his hands going straight to his b.l.o.o.d.y nose.
Shaking out his hand Denny came back to me, ”Do you think you can walk?” Denny asked.
Just think about it made me feel sick, ”I don't feel too good.” I whispered wanting to cry again.
”Forget it, I'll carry you.” Denny said pulling my arm over his shoulder and putting his arms around my back and under my knees lifting me up.
Closing my eyes against the wave of nausea I let Denny carry me out of the house.
