Narrator
Leo was left in the kitchen, trying to hold back the tears that threatened to fall. He heard thumps that meant that the girls had heard his cries, and were rushing down the stairs. He turned to see their frenzied faces at the kitchen door. His face was hard, and though tearstained, set in determination. Paige was the first to ask the question.
"What happened?!" Leo answered in three words and strode out of the room, unsure of where he was going or what he was doing, just knowing he had to find Piper.
"He took Piper."
Piper
All I could see was black. Apparently I was blindfolded, and considering the painful constricting feeling I had around my wrists, bound too. Oh great, now how was I supposed to get out of this? I knew who had taken me, and I had heard Leo shouting my name. I tried to yell back, but I was shoved into the back seat of a car and my head had slammed against the handle of the door and I had blacked out. I was bound and gagged, there was a bruise the size of Texas forming on the side of my head and I was most likely going to be raped, and the only thing I could think about was the fact that my pasta was going to burn.
Oh, and the fact that all I wanted were Leo's arms around me while we were sitting comfortably in the manor. But life doesn't always go the way we plan it to. But one question, why me?
Dan
I needed to have her. This was no longer a competition with Wyatt, this was something I needed, something I wanted. I didn't care whether she wanted it or not, or whether she hated me or loved me, all I knew is that she didn't have a choice in the matter.
I love her. I love her so much it hurts me to hurt her, but I need to. I need to have her. I know what's best for her, and it's not Wyatt. He only cares about the things that aren't material. I know that she needs a handsome boyfriend, and beautiful jewelry and reassurances that she's mine. That's all her petty mind needs. No need to have any concerns in a man's business. As if she could understand it anyway.
I've heard Wyatt and her talking, and all they talk about is how much they love each other and how he'll always protect her and crap like that. None of that's important. None of it. And she will be mine. She will be mine.
I'm sorry for this extremely short chapter, but I just wanted to give you an insight into Dan's mind. The next chapter is on it's way. I'm sorry that I'm not replying to your reviews, but I've really got no time. The only reason this chapter is out because I'm sick and I'm sitting here at home. I'm sorry it took so long, but life is really getting me down.
I'd appreciate it if some of you guys looked me up at www.fictionpress.com where I'm Keeper of the Plot Bunnie (no 's'!). I've got poems up. A lot of poems.
