"I know you are cheating on me!" Cat said as she and Beck acted a scene on stage.

"I am not" Beck responded emotionlessly.

"Then explain why you're getting home so late" She said in a serious voice and he sighed.

"I just...I've been busy" He simply said.

"Do you love me?" Cat asked and he nodded but it was obvious he didn't want to be there.

"Yeah, now let's go have dinner..." Beck simply said to get the scene over with.

"You can do better than that, Beck..." Sikowitz commented.

"I'm tired" He responded and Sikowitz nodded.

"Alright everyone, see you tomorrow" Sikowitz said because the class was over and everyone started leaving the classroom. "Guys, wait…" he said to the gang and they turned to him. "No news?" He asked and they shook their heads.

"Nothing" Tori responded and he looked down.

"That's unfortunate" Sikowitz said sincerely and there was silence for several seconds.

"She is dead, isn't she?" Cat asked with a few tears streaming down her face so Robbie hugged her.

"No, she is not" Beck responded.

"Beck, it's been months…" Andre said sadly. "Her father hired a detective and he hasn't found her either"

"That doesn't mean she is dead" Beck said slightly angry.

"I don't know, Beck, he has a point…" Tori commented.

"No!" He insisted. "She is alive, I know she is"

"Listen, Jade's disappearance was tragic…but it's time to move on" Sikowitz commented sadly. "Especially you, Beck, your grades have plummeted…And you've lost weight, this isn't healthy"

"He is right" Andre added and Beck stared at them coldly.

"I'm fine…she is the one who is not well" He responded and they looked at each other. "My girlfriend is in the hands of some bastard who is probably abusing her, she must be locked up somewhere suffering and you're asking me to just accept it and move on? No, I won't!" Beck exclaimed madly.

"She is probably dead at this point, Beck, she is not suffering anymore and you're destroying yourself for nothing" Tori commented but he kept shaking his head. "I'm sorry, I really am but there's nothing we can do…"

Several weeks went by and Rosie slowly started getting used to her new life as one of Alan's slaves, she'd been feeling miserable but he had only raped her twice in those weeks because he still spent most of his time with Jade; he was really trying to get her pregnant and she was really hoping he'd fail but she was terrified because there was nothing she could do to stop him.

"How are my girls?" Alan asked as he joined Jade and Rosie for breakfast in the garden and they fake smiled at him.

"Hey" Jade said.

"Hi Alan…" Rosie said.

"I got good news, especially for you, Elise" Alan said as he sat down and the maid served him breakfast. "Our wedding is tomorrow and the day after tomorrow we're all taking off to London" He informed and their eyes wide opened.

"Isn't that sudden? We can wait" Jade said.

"I agree" Rosie added.

"No, it's perfect…But you need to go pick your dress, Elise, you don't have to consult me on that because I want it to be a surprise" Alan said and she fake smiled at him. "Go on, go get it now while Rachel keeps me in company…You and I will have plenty of time in our honeymoon" He commented and she sighed, Rosie simply looked down mortified and Jade nodded.

"Alright, see you both later…" Alan forced Rosie to dance and then raped her while Jade went shopping with her bodyguards. She couldn't believe she was actually getting a wedding gown and that she would wear it to marry her kidnapper, it seemed a bad joke but it was happening; that was her reality.

Beck and the rest of the gang had flown to New York City to see a play on Broadway along with Sikowitz, he'd felt it was a good way to distract the gang from the whole Jade situation and they were excited to go too. "Alright guys, we are in the big apple! Aren't you excited?" Sikowitz questioned as they walked through the streets.

"Yes" Cat said happily and the rest of them nodded, Beck was trying to enjoy his time there but he still couldn't feel happy.

"Come on, Beck, smile…Enjoy it" Tori said nicely and he sighed but then smiled a little so she smiled back. "We are gonna have so much fun!" She exclaimed excitedly and they continued walking behind their friends and Sikowitz.

"Let's have dinner, we have time before the play starts" Sikowitz said and they got a table in a nice restaurant.

Jade had been walking around and going to different stores looking for a nice wedding dress but she hadn't found one she liked and she also was making time outside because she didn't want to go back to the house. Jade turned to the side and her eyes wide opened when she saw Beck and Cat right across the street, then she saw Tori, Andre, Robbie and Sikowitz were there as well so she smiled surprised and hopeful.

"Mr. Benathy wants to know if you'll take long" One of her bodyguards said distracting her from her surprise.

"Uh? Umm…I don't know" Jade said emotionlessly.

"What's the matter? What are you looking at?" The other guard questioned coldly and she quickly turned to him so she saw he had his hand on his gun. "Do you know those people?" He asked referring to the gang because they were the only visible people in the window.

"No, no of course not…I was just looking at the restaurant because I'm hungry" Jade said and smiled at them nervously so he stared at her suspiciously and then back at the restaurant. "Could we go in there for dinner? It's my favorite restaurant, Alan won't mind"

"I don't think so" The man responded.

"Please, I'm craving their desserts…At least let me get a cake" Jade insisted, she really wanted to be seen by her friends just so they would follow her to the house and save her from the terrible fate that awaited her. "What's your problem? I am going to marry your boss tomorrow, I don't even have to ask for your permission, I'm going in and you're gonna keep your stupid guns inside your pants if you don't want me to tell Alan things you don't want him to think" She commented arrogantly and the men looked at each other. "I'm sure he won't be pleased to know you tried to touch his future wife" she said and one of them exhaled annoyed so she simply smirked and turned around.

Jade walked across the street expecting Beck to see her because his seat was opposite the window so she was basically in front of him but he was looking down at the menu. "Come on, come on…look up, look up" she whispered to herself as she got closer and closer to the restaurant but he wasn't doing it.

"Wait" One of her guards said as he grabbed her arm and she turned to him annoyed.

"What?" She asked.

"You're going to get your gown and I'll get your cake, how about that?" The guard suggested.

"How about I do both things and you just do your job?" She asked coldly and he chuckled.

"Don't get confused, sweetheart, marrying the boss doesn't make you our boss, you're still nothing but a fucking sex toy" The man whispered on her face and she glared at him angrily. "You don't want us to tell your future husband that you tried to escape, do you? We could shoot those people eating dinner right now and say we had to do it because you asked for help, I can assure you Mr. Benathy won't be happy and maybe you'll end up going back to the brothel where you belong" He threatened and she stared at him nervously.

"Do you like our idea now?" the other man asked and she took a breath, she just wanted to get her friends' attention but she knew they weren't kidding so she had to give in. Jade didn't want them to hurt her or her friends.

"Fine" She said angrily as she pulled her arm away and they nodded.

"Good, go on…You need to get everything for your wedding" The other man said and she had to walk with him, she passed right by the window but nobody was looking at it in that moment so they didn't see her and she simply looked down because she knew her only chance of escaping had gone away.

Jade bought a really pretty dress and next day a hairdresser went to the mansion to make her look great, he did her hair and makeup and when Jade was done she looked at herself in the mirror. She looked stunning but she couldn't feel happy, she'd imagined she would dress like that someday but because she would marry Beck, not the man who had taken her freedom away. In that moment Alan wasn't hurting her but she felt rejection for him, it was a feeling that came and left periodically but she wished to make it go away, she wanted to be happy but she couldn't.

"You look beautiful, what a lucky groom" The hairdresser said and she looked down.

"Thanks…" Jade said emotionlessly. Alan invited some of his friends and colleagues to the wedding, which took place in his garden and they indeed got married but it wasn't really legal since Jade went by the name Elise Andersen. However, that didn't make much of a difference because married or not, she was doomed to be with him.

That night Jade had to sleep with Alan again and next morning the three of them got on an airplane to fly away. Alan booked the three tickets in first class so they would be comfortable but the girls only felt like crying as the plane took off. That was it, that was the end of their lives and the beginning of the lie they would live until the day they died.

"It's been ten months, almost a whole year since she disappeared and we still know nothing" Beck said upset as he walked around Mr. West's living room.

"I know, I know" He responded just as upset and covered his face. "I don't know what to do anymore, the detective I hired hasn't found her…it's like she disappeared"

"She must be somewhere" Beck said and the gang looked at each other.

"Beck…" Tori said.

"No, don't say it" He responded angrily.

"It's time for you to have resignation, we lost her…You need to face it" Andre commented sadly.

"My daughter isn't dead, I won't believe it unless they show me her corpse" Mr. West said coldly.

"I know it hurts, Mr. West but it's been too long, if she were alive we'd know it by now" Robbie responded and Beck looked down, he knew they were right but he couldn't bring himself to accept her death.

"I don't care what you say, I don't care how much time passes...I will never give up on my child"

Jade and Rosie got accustomed to their new house in London quickly and the months they'd spent there had been okay; things weren't very different from their lives in New York, they were able to go out and get to know the city but they had two body guards each at all times. Alan had to work but he spent a lot of time with them as well. At that point in their relationship, it really felt like a marriage for Jade because she never complained so he always treated her nicely; they slept together most of the time, took walks together, had meals together and did everything a normal marriage does. Jade didn't even feel like herself anymore, she felt she was watching a movie of the life of a completely different person, the life of Elise Benathy.

Rosie was almost four years younger than Jade and young enough to be Alan's daughter so sometimes it felt like that, the three of them would watch movies together and Jade felt they were some kind of family, she was the mother figure, Alan was the father and Rosie was the daughter in a way but when Alan forced Rosie to be with him, the sick and sad reality hit Jade again.

"What's wrong with me?" Jade asked herself as she stared at the view from her window while Alan and Rosie had sex in his room. "This is not me, I can't be happy living like this…" she said and shook her head; she had a lot of conflicting feelings because she hated to be captive and she hated Alan, he was a monster and she knew it but for some reason she sometimes felt okay being with him, which disconcerted her.

"I love Beck, not Alan…he is a rapist and he is a monster, yes Jade…You need to keep it in mind, he is not good and you're not here because you want to" She told herself and took a breath as she nodded. "Your name is Jade West, not Elise Benathy and you're kidnapped, you hate Alan…" Jade affirmed. "But should you?" she randomly asked herself and thought about it.

"I'm never going to escape so what's the point of hating him? He is not mean to me anymore…" Jade said and took a breath but then shook her head and cringed mortified. "No, god! This is fucking ridiculous, are you listening to yourself?" She asked angrily and pulled her hair back. "I don't know, I don't know what I should feel, I don't know what I feel…I just want to go to Hollywood Arts, I want to act and I sing, I want to be home, I want to be with my friends" Jade said as some tears streamed down her face. "I want to be Jade West, I want my life back…" she finished with more tears running down her cheeks and looked down but then she felt a little dizzy so she held her head and sat down on her sofa until it passed. "I'll be fine, everything is gonna be just fine…"
