This is chapter two of this story. I am open for critics.

I immediately jumped off the bed and tried to hit him, but the chain stopped me, I was handcuffed to the bed's leg and I hissed from the pain.

'"You are enjoying this, don't you?'"- I shot an angry look at the crazy bastard, Jacob. This chain only allowed me walk few steps around the bed, the only time I was without it was when Steven came to take me to the bathroom. The young man always apologized and removed the shackle with tenderness. The first time I kicked him in the knee and scratched his face very bad. He got angry and expecting a blow, I closed my eyes. But there was none-after restraining himself, Steven pulled me a little harshly and left without saying a word. I had tried to sweet talk him into releasing me, but he only brought me food I refused to eat and took me to the bathroom.

'"I don't, it pains me to see you like this.'- the guy had curly dark hair and eyes that seemed to see into my soul. Jacob walked slowly to me and tried to stroke my hair but I backed away.-"Steven told me you refused to eat."- He said eying at the tempting soup and my stomach growled, I was dizzy from starvation.

''It may be poisoned.'"- I was awarded by his eyes narrowing dangerously.

''Fine, then I have to feed you myself. Sit.'"- I could swear that the lunatic's eyes shone bright red for a second and I was unable to resist when Jacob fed me like a baby, watching intently as I swallowed the delicious soup. What does this guy want from me? He must be some sort of a crazy stalker, the portrait, the abduction, the chain. But Steven? Why is he playing this crazy man's game and why is he calling him Master, obeying him? I hope they are not serial killers! I won't ever see my family again, Ethan. The cute doctor must be worried sick by now, called the police.

'"Why are you crying, Mia?"'-Jacob wiped my tears but I managed to slap him and bowl broke on the floor, the rest of the soup splashed. My abductor took a deep breath and he barely restrained himself from attacking me. - '"Is this how you repay my kindness, my dear?"- He pulled the chain to himself and our bodies clashed. Jacob painfully yanked my hair but I spit in his face and he released me dumbstruck.

"'You call this kindness?"- I pulled mockingly the shackle and he saw my wounded leg. -''I want to know what kind of a sick man abducted me and why!""

Jacob gulped and bend over and carefully touched my foot.-"I'm so sorry, but you didn't give me a chance to explain who you are to me…'"

I cut him out. -'"I know very well who I am!"-As if summoned by mystical force, Steven entered and brought First aid kit. Jacob unchained me and with tender care began to clean the wound.-""You don't know the whole truth. You are my wife, Cassandra Thorn, who came back to me.""-he gazed at the portrait with love.

''You are clearly insane, pal!"'- I tried to stand up but his grip on my leg tightened.

"'You don't see the resemblance, don't you?!""- The guy was looking at me in a way that made my skin crawl it was like a bucket of ice dropped over me.

'"You are some sort of crazy stalker, the portrait is surely fake."- Don't let him confuse you into believing his fantasy, he is clearly insane! Jacob laughed, leaned and gave my leg a peck.-"My little bird, you are always so funny! No, Amelia, that is you, but in another life.'"

''How do you know my name?'"- The psycho was stroking my bare leg and it send shivers down my spine. I am in the hands of a real psychopath!

''I know everything about you, Amelia Gordon. I have been to the restaurant you work; saw the inside of your flat. You have an interesting DVD collection.'"- With his every word, my heart was beating faster and I was afraid that it might jump off my chest.-"'and that charming doctor, what was his name …John, Sam…?""

"'Ethan."'- The name was a whisper but he smiled dangerously. -'"Right, Ethan! He shouldn't touch things that aren't his.''

I looked again at the portrait and gathered courage to say.-""Look, Jacob, I get it that you lost your wife and you grief for her. Maybe you found me interesting and you faked this painting for your sick fantasies. But Ethan hadn't done anything to you, and neither did I.''

''The painting is real and that's you.''- He said stroking my cheek.-"'You came back to me.'"

"Listen you! Let's say I believe you, the woman is probably dead for 200 years, and how could you have been married to her? And how did she die?"'

''She took her own life, thinking I was dead.''- The sorrow in his eyes almost made me care for him but i chose to respond by hurting him.- '"Or maybe she did it to get away from you, because you are crazy!'"

Jacob quickly got on top of me and pinned my hands over my head.

'"Cassie loved me with all her heart and you will too, Mia. And to answer your other question-I really lived 200 years ago. Because I'm timeless being, who drinks people's blood to stay alive.""- And for my shock Jacob revealed sharp fangs but seeing how frightened I was, he stood up. He was a…!

'"I will send Steven to bring you another clothes. And you better behave from now on, or your sweet doctor will feel my wrath.''-The door closed behind him with force and that was when the flood of tears began.
