Chapter 42
Linka
The effect of the drug slowly weakened, until Linka woke up, at first she noticed that she was in a dark place, she kept opening and closing her eyes lazily, Greg sitting opposite her in the dark noticed that, then the picture began to clear in front of her, she saw that she was in a semi-dark room filled with white tiles Everywhere, as if she was in a hospital, and there was a glimmer of light from the corner of the room (which Greg turned into a small toilet), then she opened her eyes wide with surprise, and quickly felt her clothes, she was afraid that someone might took advantage of her, when she was assured that her clothes were on her , she quickly felt her stomach to make sure that her baby was safe inside her, then she heard a familiar voice coming from the dark side.
"Hey fat girl"
"Who is this?...Who are you?"
Greg approached her slowly until his face was facing the light from the toilet
"Greg!" Linka said as she was so shocked by what was happening around her
"Yes, Greg, your worst nightmare."
She was looking at him in astonishment, he looked a lot like Greg, it was Greg himself, but there was something different this time, his predatory look, an evil smile she had never seen on him before, there was a strange gleam in his eyes, and the whiteness of his eyes was gone, and his eyes became Black as predatory wolves, she remembered that she had seen this look on him only once, about eight months ago when she found herself naked in his bed on that fateful day,
In fact, this is Greg's real eyes that he hides from the outside world, and this is his natural view that only his victims can see after it is too late.
"Where am I? How did you bring me here?"
You are in hell, my beautiful angel." He said with a smile, evil in his eyes
Linka got up from the mattress , she just recognize that he had put her on a new white mattress, still covered in plastic, without a pillow, without a quilt or blanket , the room was completely empty of anything, and there was an iron door in front of her without a handle, which means she can't open or close the door, There was a small electronic device to open the door, which means Greg had planned this at least several months ago, and it wasn't just a passing thought. She began to realize that she and the baby are in real danger, she put her hands on her head, as she felt dizzy from the rest of the effects of the drug,
"Why did you bring me here? "As she still can't believe what she sees by her eyes.
"I didn't bring you here, sweet heart, you brought yourself here." He approaches her and tries to catch her jaw.
"What the hell are you talking about?" She throws his hand away from her roughly
"Watch your tone with me, I'm warning you, I do not allow this kind of tone in my residence." Then Greg walked around her bed and said, "I gave you the opportunity to be the queen of my palace, the queen of my heart , I allowed you to use my power and enjoy my money, I gave you the opportunity that will not be repeated , to be a princess Pampered and served all the time, any girl would wish what you had, but you shot me down, you rejected my generous offer, drove me away like an insect that would pinch your soft skin, broke my heart, and no one, no one would ever dare to do that to Greg, get it."
He said his last sentence, holding her face. And he pressed it between his fingers with all his might, and pulled her to him until he made her stand, he grabbed her arm hard and made her back to his chest, and he walked around with her in the place while holding her face with his other hand, guiding her to see the room "Look around you, look what you did to yourself, look at the fate you chose, look at The hell you will live in."
"Let me go, don't touch me." Linka let go of his hands and look at him in astonishment, not believing what he was just saying,
After moments of silence she said in horrified, "You're crazy… You're definitely crazy, you're kidding, you just want to scare me right?" she looked at him and stared closely into his lifeless eyes, they looked like the eyes of a puppet that didn't feel anything, his rigid features and his sarcastic smile, he was happy to see the fear in her eyes
Linka gathered her strength, pushed Greg back in the chest, she started screaming, "Get me out of here, you don't have the right to lock me up in this place, I'm telling you open this door immediately."
"You're not in a position to give orders here, I'm the master here, and I can do whatever I want, and if you scream, or you don't, no one will hear you, the walls are soundproofed." He remains calm and enjoys seeing her suffer
"Open the door, let me go, you filthy bastard, do you think you'll get away with your crime, you coward,
I told you, open the door, you dirty animal, you can't do this to me." Linka started screaming and ran to Greg and hit him in the chest, she tried also to slap him on the face
Greg got angry and grabbed both of her hands with one of his hands while he pulled her hair with his other and shouted at her, "Watch out how you talk to your master you bitch, you're just a slave to me now , and no one here gives orders but me. Do you understand that" She tries to kick him with her feet, but her kicks didn't seem to hurt him, so he get more angry and dragged her violently to her mattress, where the handcuffs were hanging on the wall, he savagely threw her on the mattress, and she screamed in pain,
When he tied her up, she said to him, "You can't get away with this, Greg" in a weak voice full of pain
He put a towel in her mouth to keep her from screaming, then he hold her face and look into her eyes, "Of course I can, bitch ,I got away with many thing in the past, I killed animals and entertained by torturing them in my childhood, I was hurting my classmates, breaking girls' hearts in my teens, making problems for the servants in my house, I was the one who isolated my father, and took over the company with its branches and factories, I betrayed my wives and led them to madness and stole their bank account, and I was the one who paid Robin to make that photo girl to separate you from the stupid red, spud stuffer , I was the one who made the waiter put a drug in your drink, and I lured you to my apartment and raped you there, all this and I am running away every time from justice, by my intelligence and plans, the law does not apply on me, it applies on fools like you and the rest of the idiots whom I deceive, and no one will be able to stand in My face and prevent me from what I want to achieve, do you hear me "
She was looking at him in amazement, in disbelief that one day, she thought this monster was a normal human being, she remembered what Wheeler was saying about him, that he is a criminal and she should beware of him
Then Greg left Linka handcuffed, opened the door and disappeared into the darkness, she felt some liquid coming out of her womb after the fight and screaming she had with Greg, she cried in silence with her heart writhing in pain, not knowing what this human monster could do to her and her baby.
Wheeler
Wheeler knew that the victim could be rescued within six hours after being kidnapped, and then there was little or no possibility of being rescued, so he entered every alley in the streets, questioned the suspicious and drunken men and the prostitutes.
He glanced at the trash cans, looking for any big trash bags. Kwame and the rest of the police were helping him all the time. After the sun was about to rise, Wheeler looked at the twilight with a broken heart, "It's all because of me. If I had waited for her and took her to the hospital, it wouldn't have happened now. It's all because of me, I can't believe this is Kwame, I can't believe this is really happening," he said in a low, trembling voice
"Wheeler, please calm down, and now I want you to remember, what was the last thing she told you?"
"She was talking about normal things as I remember, she said she'd be fine, and she'd let me take her to our apartment after she's done, I'm confused man...I can't think clearly" After Wheeler calmed down, he remembered a little something " wait.. She said it's not the hospital route, I remember it well, he must have taken her somewhere else."
"Well we should go to the parking lot at her work and ask the security to check the cameras," Kwame said, when the security was called before his shift, they reviewed the recording. The policemen, including Wheeler, were surprised to see a young tall man who wears a hat and a scarf to hide his face leaks air from the tires of a Linka's care.
"Did you see this, it's a planned kidnapping," said one of the policemen, about two hours later in the recording, Linka appeared, and Wheeler's heart was breaking as he saw her on the screen looking at the tires in annoyance, he wished he could jump inside the TV screen and save her, then they watched her calling , Wheeler knows she was talking to him at this time and asks if he's nearby, then they saw a taxi pass by and stop for her even before Linka waved for the car, when the police looked closely, they were very doubtful that the taxi driver was the same who emptied her tires ,They took the number, data and type of the car and tike it to the police office to give them the data and record the video so that the investigators could review it.
Fifteen minutes later, Wheeler is summoned by Captain David" Wheeler, come to the police station, there are some new information that have been discovered."
"Captain David, please tell me, is it good news or not" Wheeler can't stand any more bad news.
"It's just some an evidences, Wheeler, and I hope your girl is okay."
When Wheeler came out of the detective's office, his face was white, devoid of features, he was shocked and devastated to what he heard
"Wheeler, what did the detective told you? Kwami grabbed Wheeler's arm and sat him down on the nearest chair."
"The taxi that Linka rode in was stolen, and the person who was driving it is not the real driver of it, he is a criminal. This criminal got into the same car with its original driver yesterday afternoon, and he stabbed him in the back, it seems that he stole the taxi and kidnapped Linka a few hours later, the taxi and its driver were reported killed after the kidnapping of Linka, and the worst thing is that the police found the taxi Burned in one of the provinces, and there is no sign of Linka but..."
"But what Wheeler?..." Kwame was stunned and heartbroken to what he just heard
"They found her purse, and her cell phone inside the burned-out taxi. They called me to recognize her things, they were completely burnt, I recognized them only by her name on the vitamins box that was in her purse, Kwame."
Wheeler looked at Kwame with desperate eyes, "Do you...do you think they killed her and toke the baby? Do you think she's alive?" Kwame hugged his friend and told him that he must have hope that she's still alive somewhere.
"Kwame, we are police officers, and we know that the nonsense we are telling the victims' families is not true, the possibility of finding a victim alive after being kidnapped is only five percent,... I can't believe I lost her... I can't believe I won't see her again." Wheeler hugged Kwame tightly and cried.
Linka
It had been more than twelve hours, and Linka was lying on the mattress as Greg handcuff her, she was feeling so tired and aching in her head, she couldn't even open her eyes, she remembers that the last time she ate was yesterday at work, her meal was only juice. And half a sandwich, she remembers that Karen asked her to eat some of the chopped fruits she bought for her "this is for the baby term" as Karen said, that was all she ate, she remembers that she was planning to come from the hospital and rest at her home where she was going to eat with her boyfriend, sleep in his arms happily But what happened to her disappointed all her expectations. She did not know if she was in a fainting state, or a dream, or if what happened to her was real. She was afraid to open her eyes to find herself imprisoned in Greg prison.
After a long time she heard the sound of an iron door opening. It was Greg. He knew that she had not eaten anything for more than twelve hours. He was actually trying to starve her and weaken her so that she would obey to him and his desires. He was very happy when he saw her tired, hungry and hurt
When he entered the darkened room, he was carrying a tray with a small plate of soup and a plastic water bottle He put the food near her, he sat down on the mattress next to her, and looked at her, she opened her eyes and looked at him with difficulty, she was completely collapsed like a wounded deer, he removed the handcuffs from her hands, then freed her mouth from the piece of cloth that was in it, then she began to breathe hard, trying to move her head her shoulders.
He grabbed the bottle of water and opened it and pointed it at her, she grabbed the bottle from the other end and drank it all with great thirst, then she began to catch her breath and said to him, "You want to kill me."
"You did it to yourself, these are only the results of your actions." He said with smile, enjoying watching her suffer
When he tried to feed her the first spoonful of soup, she grabbed the bowl and drank it quickly as if she were drinking water, the plate was not hot and she was starving, then Greg backed off and sat in his usual place, leaning against the wall, looking at her savagely.
After she rested and regained some of her strength, she sat on the mattress, and felt the movement of her baby inside her, which gave her more strength to fight for, she looked at Greg and asked him in a sharp tone. "What's in your mind, Greg?"
He pulled a cigarette out of small box in his pocket and started lighting "a lot of things." He was very quiet
"What are you going to do with us?"
"us, you and me?"
"Me and the baby"
"Hmmm, you and the baby, I warn you, sweetheart, don't ask too many questions, you like to argue so much and I can't stand this habit." He continued smoking his cigarette, then rose from his place as if he was leaving the room
"I have every right to know what will happen to me and my baby." She started raising her voice
He puffed smoke at her in disdain, "You have no rights here, the rights you have are the rights I allow you to have." Then he moved toward the door, and she stood and blocked his way.
"What do you mean I don't have any rights, are you crazy? And get this disgusting thing away from me." She took a cigarette from his mouth and threw it on the floor, and continued, "Don't you have any kind of feeling, I'm pregnant, there's a baby coming in a few weeks from now, He needs medical care.
"The baby will be fine." With a faint smile devoid of life
"What do you mean he'll be fine, you don't have the right to lock us up here like cockroaches, you dirty bastard."
When Greg heard these words from Linka, and knew that she is not afraid of him, he turned into a monster and his eyes radiated evil, so he slapped her hard on the cheek.
She grabbed her slapped cheek, and looked at him through the tufts of her blond hair that fell on her cheek and eyes.
"Don't you speak to your master in that tone again, bitch, or you'll regret it." He grabbed her by the hair tightly and looked into her eyes, so she spat in his face, it was only a second before Greg opened his eyes and slapped her on the other cheek "Now you'll get what you deserve" Then he threw her To the wall hard, where her forehead hit the wall and started to bleed, then she collapsed on the ground, crying out in a weak voice.
After that, Linka doesn't remember what exactly happened, except that she tries to protect her baby bump and her eyes from the successive blows on her body, She was feeling terrible pain as he was kicking her with his shoes, she could feel it as a kvass of iron gnawed at different parts of her body, then he dragged her by her hair and threw her on the mattress roughly, he didn't tie her this time because he knew that she would never be able to get up after all this beating
Then Greg grabbed her face tightly as if he was going to squeeze it with both hands, and he looked into her eyes with evil in his eyes, "You want to know the fate of you and your child, okay, here it is, I will take my child from you, make him another version of me, so that all my enemies and competitors know, that I am not alone, and that I have an heir who will fight them with me and after me, who will destroy my enemies and crush the people I do not like, and complete the chain of successes that I have begun.
"No, no," said Linka in a weak voice
"Oh, yes, and you, sweet heart, you will stay here until the last day of your life, you will be my sex slave, and I will use you to satisfy my sexual desires, I have always dreamed of locking you up, beautiful, I told you before, if you fell in, you may never get out and here you fell In my captivity, I won't let you go anywhere"
"You...you're a monster, Greg" trying to catch her breath
"Oh no, I'm the devil in himself." Then he laughed happily hysterically after seeing the sadness and fear in her eyes and walked out of the dark room, letting her suffer in pain.
