Chapter 4

My stomach grumbled for what seemed to be the fourth time this morning, a subtle reminder that I hadn't eaten anything

since I came here.

Groaning, I rubbed my stomach, trying to soothe the pain a little

The lock clicked and my eyes snapped to the door immediately immediately Silas had stepped out a few hours ago, he locked me in here. What was I supposed to do in a room with no book, TV, and not even my cellphone?

I pushed up from where 1 sat, walking slowly to the door.

Was this a trap? I had no idea what to expect since I was a captive and all.

Pulling the door open. I poked my head out, looking both ways. The hallway was empty but I could hear voices some distance away

My stomach grumbled once more and I knew I had to find something to eat.

Following the voices. I turned a corner to see two huge men with guns talking to each other.

"I wonder what he was thinking when he decided to get married to her,

His voice was dripping with disgust and I knew they were referring to me. Coming into your enemy's territory wasn't the best thing to do.

My stomach grumbled once more and they both turned to me immediately, their guns pointed at my face.

My heart dropped with the guns in my face and I raised my hand in surrender.

What the fuck are you doing out of your room?" One of the men growled at me, making no move to take the gun

He had an Italian accent and his arms were riddled with tattoos

"Silas had said that-" I started to explain but I was cut short by the sound of the gun being cocked.

"If you say his name one more time with so much disrespect, you wouldn't like what Td do"

So what was I supposed to call him? Uncle Silas? Boss Silas?

The boss seemed better in this situation.

"Boss... I started and he nodded his head curtly, giving me the go-ahead to continue.

n away.

"Boss Silas asked me to get myself whatever I wanted, and right now I'm hungry and I need to find food," I said all in one breath, hoping he would take me to the kitchen. "Did he say that?" He asked me once more, seeming suspicious.

Well Silas didn't say it that way, but...

"Yes, he did," I replied with no hesitation.

Not like he's going to ask Silas to repeat the words he told me earlier.

Both men slowly brought their guns down. My eyes finally go to the other guy and I catch him staring at me lustfully.
