I only own my OCs.
Zane was bound and gagged in the corner of the abandoned cottage, looking up when the door slammed open.
"Did you take care of her?" Samukai, Zane's captor, asked.
"Yes, we just have to send the ransom notes and my newly deceased fiancée's family and his will send us all their money!" the new man said, he was hidden in shadows so Zane couldn't see him.
"How did you kill her?"
"Simple knife in the back and a slit throat, left her in the forest where no one will ever find her."
"I heard a rumor that she is-was-pregnant, am I correct?" Samukai asked, a hint of a smirk was heard in his voice.
"Yep, I was her first!" the mystery man laughed, "I led her into the forest and "promised" that I would return! So I did her a favor in bed before ending her pitiful life."
Zane's heart softened for this poor unknown girl, how could she love this monster? Had she actually loved him? Or was it a betrothal? He glared angrily at her murderer.
"What about the child?" Zane's kidnapper asked.
"Same as his pitiful mother, he was wrapped up in her wedding gown and he died the same way."
"An infant?"
"Yes, an infant."
Zane felt sick. This man-this..monster-killed an innocent girl and an infant? The new man walked over to Zane, finally showing his face. He was a young muscular man, a little older than Zane, with black hair and cold brown eyes. The first thing Zane saw was blood on the man's clothing and a knife tucked into his belt.
"So, what are we going to do with him in the meantime?" he asked, poking Zane with his foot.
"We could make him work out in the fields?" Samukai offered. "Then you'll have to watch him because I won't."
The man left the room, Samukai pulled Zane to his feet and cut the bonds on his wrists and ankles after removing the gag. Samukai yanked him into the air and growled, "If you try anything, you'll end up six feet under."
He dropped Zane and pushed him out the door, shoving a shovel into his arms and pointed him to the fields. Zane fell into a routine in his capture; work in the fields till noon, get a small lunch, clean whatever Samukai wanted him to, get a small dinner, work in the fields until it was too dark to see, finally go to bed. This routine lasted for a month before he was finally rescued, Samukai was arrested but the murderer escaped.
please review!
