Four or Dead by G O A

Chapter 56

Emma

After I say goodbye to the boys I take my time cleaning up. That, unfortunately, means removing the bandage over my new wound. I still can't believe Zane drugged me and had some man perform surgery in a hotel room. This guy is even more messed up in the head than my father and I didn't even think that was possible. I guess being that paranoid will make things like this seem...normal. I can't say I understand his reasons, but I also can't say it surprises me that he is on the same side of crazy as the man who sold his daughter to another man. \*

The bathroom is the fanciest one I have ever been in. Everything is glass and white marble. Even the sink bowls are made of frosted glass and sit above the counter like a bowl. The mirror has a white vintage- style frame that is absolutely beautiful I never thought I would consider a mirror beautiful but it really is

After Iam done admiring the decor I take a good look at myself in the mirror. I have slight dark circles under my eyes and my eyes look red and irritated. Whatever sedative they gave me must not be agreeing with my body. My hair is untamed and wild. I pretty much look like a hot mess. I tuck a few strands of hair behind my ears feeling myself becoming self-conscious. So instead of continuing the harsh judgment of my self I turn and open the glass show door. The showerhead is large and square which I find odd until I turn the knob and trickles of water

begin to pour down. The sound of the water is soft and it reminds me a lot of quiet rain..°

I take a second to breathe in some of the steam that is quickly filling the room. Maybe once this is over I can convince the guys to get a shower head like this in our place..')

I carefully remove my clothes so I don't stretch the fresh stitches on my hip. I'm pretty sure I shouldn't wash it like I normally would so ill have to be careful. Honestly, I'm not sure how to go about this. When I was in the hospital my wounds were not like this, so I'm not sure how to take care of this kind of thing. When I'm standing in only my bra and panties I glance down at the bandage and am happy to see that it hasn't bled through. I slowly pull the tape away and I finally get a look at the size of the wound. It's about two inches long and that makes me a little nervous. How big is the thing they put in me? I!

I should be able to feel the size if I put a little pressure around the incision, but it is already painful enough so I thought better of it. Once the rest of my clothes are set on the counter I walk into the shower. The warmth around me feels amazing and the gentle tapping of the water against my skin feels amazing. My body feels less tense now and the soft sounds are helping clear my mind more so I can think of my next move

As much as the guys hate that I have stepped into this world, I wish I had a better mind for these kinds of missions. I have never done anything like this, and now I'm realizing how really unprepared I am
