Eyes fluttering open a frown formed on her features as she glanced around. She felt sick. Her body ached. Seeing she was tied to a chair Ana tried to pull against the ropes but she had no energy whatsoever. She was powerless. She glanced around; she had no idea where she was. Nothing looked familiar. It looked like she was in some kind of warehouse. She had hoped everything was a dream. Not a living nightmare.
"You're awake. About time Ana. I thought you were going to sleep the whole night away." Jack mused as he came in, taking a drag of his cigarette before blowing out the smoke as he stopped and looked to her. "First I don't use enough and then I use too much…third time lucky right?" He mused with a smirk to her.
"What do you want Jack?" She asked looking to him.
"What do I want?" He asked looking to her. Grabbing a chair he then sat himself in front of Ana, taking another drag of his cigarette, blowing the smoke in Ana's direction. "Well unlike your husband…not much. I don't want to end world hunger or any of that crap. I just want what is supposed to be mine."
"What's that got to do with me?" She asked looking to him. "Or Sawyer! He didn't deserve what you did to him.
"Well you see, Ana…you took my job…" He looked to her and shrugged. "As for Sawyer…he would have been an obstacle to me getting to you. Collateral damage I'm afraid."
Ana's face dropped. "I never thought they'd give me your job. I've only been there a few weeks." She shook her head. "You still didn't need to hurt him like that." She whispered trying to keep her emotions under control.
"No but I suppose when your precious boyfriend buys the company…naturally it's going to go to you. Always perks to fucking the boss ey Ana?"
"I didn't know he was buying the company. We weren't even together when he bought it." She defended looking to him.
Jack laughed as he looked to her. "Don't try and defend him Ana. It's all your fault anyway. If you had just given me what I wanted…you wouldn't be in this mess."
"Give you what you wanted?"
"Don't play dumb. We would have been great together. Especially in the bedroom. You know deep down that I could make you feel way better than he ever could."
"I'd never go with you." Ana hissed in disgust at him.
Jack glared at her. "Shame you feel that way Ana." He mumbled as he got to his feet. Leaning down so they were eye to eye he soon kept his eyes locked on hers as he dubbed his cigarette out on her thigh.
As he dubbed the cigarette Ana's eyes widened. "What are you…" She began before screaming out in pain as she felt the cigarette burn through her trousers and onto her skin.
Jack smirked to her before he got up. Tossing the cigarette away he looked to her. "By the time I'm finished with you…he'll never want to go with you again. " He told her before he left the room, closing and locking the door behind him.
Tears streaming down her face as she watched him go, Ana just let her head hang as she cried. She knew Jack was crazy, but she never thought he would sink this low. All she could think about was Christian. How worried he's going to be. And Sawyer! Was he alive? Did someone find him in time? She needed to get out of here. Away from him. Looking down to her burnt leg, the tears just flowed more, Jack's words ringing over and over in her head. By the time I'm finished with you…he'll never want to go with you again. She dreaded what he was actually going to do with her and a part of her feared that he was right. What if Christian didn't want her back? He was already going to be furious with her for going back on her word and going out with Kate. What if this takes him over the edge? Decides he can't handle her defying him anymore. The thought made her feel even more sick than she already felt. As she heard the door opening once more, Ana lifted her head, watching as Jack emerged back into the room, fear now radiating off her not knowing what he was going to do next. Her thigh was still throbbing from the burn.
Looking to her Jack smirked. "What's wrong Ana? Not painful enough for you?" He asked tilting his head to the side as he looked to her before he grabbed her hand and yanked off her wedding and engagement rings and slipped them into his pocket before pulling out a pair of pliers.
Ignoring him Ana frowned as he took her rings. "Hey, give them back!" She snapped at him before the remaining colour drained from her face seeing the pliers in his hand.
Seeing her reaction to the pliers, Jack gave a small shrug. "Just a little incentive for your husband to do as he's told. I know how he struggles to follow orders seeing as he's the one normally barking them at people." He mumbled before he grabbed Ana's hair and yanked her head back. "Now open wide."
Ana's eyes widened as she tried to move her head away from him. "Please, Jack…no…" She begged, her eyes pooling with water once more. "You don't need to do this…"
"You see…that's where you're wrong. I do need to do this. Like I said Ana, you and your husband are going to pay." He stated to her. Grabbing her chin forcefully he pried her mouth open, holding her firmly in place as he moved the pliers into her mouth, wrapping it around one of her back teeth before yanking it out, ignoring Ana's screams as he admired the tooth he had pulled out.
Her mouth pouring with blood, Ana glared to Jack, the tears streaming down her face.
"Oh don't look at me like that. Could have been a lot worse. Could have cut your fingers off." He told her as he wrapped her tooth in some tissue before popping it in his pocket with her wedding and engagement rights and lighting up another cigarette.
Ana looked away from him, all she could taste was the blood in her mouth. The blood just kept seeping out of her mouth.
"While we are on a roll…" Jack began as he grabbed the chair and sat down in front of her once more, taking a long drag of his cigarette before he smirked and pressed the cigarette into her other thigh, matching his earlier attack on her other leg.
As he burnt her again, Ana screamed out again. "Jack stop!" She begged as she tried to move her legs out of the way but the rope was too tight around her wrists and ankles.
"No." He simply told her before he dabbed the ash away before he smirked as he hovered the cigarette just above her collar bone. "What does he have that I don't Anastasia?" He asked before his eyes darkened looking to her. "Apart from all the money." He hissed at her.
Ana stopped breathing as he hovered the cigarette over her collar bone. At his question she looked to him and shrugged helplessly, another tear rolling down her cheek. "He's a good man." She whispered to him. "I love him…"
"So am i!" He snapped, shaking his head he pushed the cigarette into her collar bone, ignoring her screams once more.
"Please Jack! Stop!" Ana cried as she tried to move her body away from the cigarette burning her skin but it was useless. He wasn't giving in. The pain overwhelmed her. Worse than what she felt when Christian hit her for the first time with the belt. She could feel her eyes going heavy. The pain becoming unbearable as she blacked out, falling unconscious once more. She couldn't take it anymore.
As she fell unconscious, Jack looked to her blankly. Taking another drag of his cigarette he then dubbed the remainder out on her arm. She was going to pay. Christian was going to pay. Throwing the butt of the cigarette away he gently stroked Ana's face, his thumb lightly tracing over her bloody bottom lip. "All you had to do was choose me." He whispered to her before he then snatched his hand back quickly and left, his hand digging into his pocket, pulling out the tissue and her rings. He didn't want anything from Christian. He wanted to make him suffer but he knew he would get whatever money he could out of him. He knew he'd cough it up. He'd do anything for his precious wife. His jaw clenched as he shook his head before grabbed an envelope off the side. It was time to get the plan into action. It was time to bring down Christian Grey and his entire family.
