Chapter 326 - Two Hundred And Twenty-six: Please Save Me (2/2)
”Do you order for room service?” Pedro asked her.
”No,” Isabella answered, putting on her defense instantly. She walked closer to the door and asked, ”Who's that?”
”Room service,” Came the answer.
”I didn't order for anything,” she replied, brows furrowed contemplatively.
”I know, but the manager is giving you a free breakfast - you're a VVIP in our hotel,”
But then Isabella still didn't believe her and until she looked through the peephole to discover it was the same cleaner from last night, did she relax.
”Alright, give me a minute,” she told the woman and turned to Pedro, ”Are you done?” she questioned the boy who had just zipped his pants.
”Sure,” He gestured to her to open the door.
And she did.
”Hi, here's your breakfast,” the woman pushed in the trolley full of mouth-watering dishes.
”Thank you,” Isabella said, peering out to the hallways to discover if any strange person was lurking in the shadows. This breakfast didn't sit well with her since she was someone who liked making plans neither did she like unnecessary adjustments to them.
But then, who was she to refuse free food, especially one as tasty as the ones her father cooks at home. Shit, recalling her father just ruined her mood - that damn old man. This time she and Pedro ate in silence and was done quickly.
”We should go before Anabelle bombards me with her calls,” She took Pedro's hands in hers as they walked over to the door. Isabella was the happiest since she has achieved her long-time dream of corrupting his soul.
With that feeling of happiness, she opened the door only for her smile to vanish instantly because standing before her was her worst nightmare, no, someone's worst nightmare.
Pedro stilled like a statue, what the hell just happened. Why was Niklaus standing before them and grinning like the devil he was. A million thoughts went through his mind in such a short period, didn't Isabella say he was away on his honeymoon?
”Pedro, run!” Isabella said at him just as she rammed her elbow into her father's guts, creating a momentary distraction.
He ran out yet hesitated when he saw Isabella holding off her father, ”What about you?” his heart reached out to her.
”I'll be fine, he can't do anything to me since I'm his daughter. Now run!” Isabella hissed out with effort as she fought her father.
Pedro wanted to run but he couldn't stand and watch Isabella got beaten and she must have sensed his hesitation because she turned and yelled, ”Just fucking run! ”
Pedro took off instantly.
He ran through the hallway like a mad man - a man running for his life. He must have been crazy thinking he would sleep with Niklaus' daughter and go scot-free.
Pedro kept running with all his might that his breath left his lungs when he bumped into someone out of nowhere. He looked up at the interference and froze. Uh-no, this was one of Niklaus' men.
He stood and tried to retrace his step but the man was faster and had him overpowered already, using a black cloth to cover his nose.
Pedro's eyes widened, he was trying to drug him. No, he can't let that happen! So he strived, but his strength was not strong enough to save him. He gave into the darkness.
Hours later, Pedro was awoken by the sounds of Isabella's wails and a weight on his body and why does he feel so cold? He should look around. Wait a minute, he was being buried ALIVE!
Instantly, the boy tried to stand, he couldn't. His waist downward had been buried, leaving only his torso upward. The boy knew Niklaus did that on purpose; he wanted him to watch his death.
”No, father, don't do this!” Isabella cried out but her sobs didn't touch the stony-faced Niklaus. The girl was held down by his men knowing she wouldn't hesitate to rescue the boy.
”I warned you, didn't I?” Niklaus stood in front of the newly dug grave that would be covered soon.
”P-please save me, I won't do it again,” Pedro pleaded, tears streaming down his cheeks. He didn't want to die like this. Heck, he was too young to die!
”I would have forgiven you but then, you've eaten the forbidden fruit, remember? Hence too late for that,” Niklaus said, stomping the cigarette he had been smoking with his feet. He motioned his men with the shovels to proceed.
”Father don't do this!” Isabella wailed as she had never done before but her tears fell on deaf ears.
”Please save me!” Pedro cried for help but no one was there to save him. And that was how the young fool lost his life because of love.
*End of imagination*
Reina shook the ridiculous imagination out of her head. No, she couldn't let this happen! So she had to put more effort into seducing the man she was kissing right now. Isabella would pay for this huge favor later.
