A/N: Hi everyone! I'm sorry it took me so long to update. Been really busy :( But the second chapter is here now! Hope you like it :D And thank you for the reviews, follows and favorites :)

I DO NOT OWN CASTLE OR ITS CHARACTERS! THEY BELONG TO ABC AND ANDREW W MARLOWE!

The next time Beckett and Castle opened their eyes and were back conscious they were in a dark room. In the same room with each other, but they didn't knew they were there together, yet. Both were pinned to chairs with ropes. It took a while before they gained enough consciousness and started to realize what had just happened.

Hello? Asked Beckett

Castle popped his head up and tried to see who was talking in the darkness.

Hello? Anybody there? Beckett repeated

He was surprised to hear a familiar voice. It was Beckett.

Beckett? Kate? Is that you? Castle asked

Now it was Beckett's turn to be surprised to hear Castle's voice.

Castle? What the hell happened? Are you okay?

I'm fine. I have no idea what happened. I went home and got hit in the head with something and I blacked out. Now I'm here with you. What happened to you? You okay?

I'm okay. Exactly the same happened to me at home. What is this?

And then a door to the dark room was opened. Dim lights lit up in the room and they both looked at the door and saw a dark shadow standing there.

Oh good, you're both awake. The shadow said with a husky voice.

Who are you? What do you want from us? Beckett asked loudly

The man in the doorway laughed and said "I'm sure you don't know me, but I know you. Both of you."

Castle and Beckett looked at each other.

What do you want from us? Castle asked

The unknown man was like he wasn't even hearing Castle's question and walked around the room.

Answer me! Let us go! Castle yelled

Then the man stopped walking, went in front of Castle's face and smacked him out of nowhere. Castle moaned from the pain. Blood started to run from his nose and he'd gotten a little cut to his top lip.

Beckett was terrified about the man hitting Castle and yelled "No! Don't you dare to touch him! Leave him alone. If you want to hurt someone , hurt me."

The man laughed once again and left Castle alone. He started to take steps towards Beckett. Standing right in front of her he leaned forward to her face.

Who the hell are you to tell me what to do?

Beckett remained shut. The man was close to her and touched her face and she didn't like that. At all. Beckett tried to move away from his touching hand.

The man didn't like Beckett being so rude to him and decided to give her a lesson. He hit her as hard as he could to her abdomen. The hit was so hard it made Beckett bend over in her chair and she moaned from the pain. She felt like her lungs were on fire and she gasped for air.

The bastard probably broke a few ribs, she thought and tried to look like she wasn't in pain.

Castle was squirming to get free from his chair and mumbled something really angrily.

The man grabbed Beckett's hair and lifted her head up. "Get up!" He yelled. Beckett cried in agony. Castle felt bad for witnessing this jackass hurting Beckett. He wanted to get out of his chair and kill this unknown man. No one is allowed to hurt Beckett, his love.

You son of a bitch.. Castle mumbled.

The man saw angry Castle trying to loosen the ropes around him and smiled mockingly. "You're not gonna get out of those, you know." He said. "Try as much as you want but you'll not succeed." He stopped talking for a while and then continued, "Now Mr. Castle I know how much you care about this little detective of yours, you get to see what I'm about to do to her." He laughed.

Castle breathed heavily and was so angry he could explode.

The man put his hand in his pocket and took a sharp little knife in his hands. Castle's eyes saw the knife and his heart skipped a beat or two. No, no, no, don't you.. He thought.

"No!" Castle yelled from the top of his lungs when he saw the man putting the knife to Beckett's neck and cutting it.

Beckett winced for the pain, tears in her eyes. Blood started to flow down her neck. Her breathing started to get heavy and difficult. The punch in the abdomen and now this started to be too much even for the great detective Kate Beckett. Her vision started to blurr.

Suddenly the man kicked the chair Beckett was sitting in and it fell on the floor. Beckett moaned again as her right side landed the floor. The hit to the floor was it. It was too much to handle. The pain everywhere in her body was too much. She couldn't keep her eyes open anymore.

"Leave her alone and come here! She hasn't done anything to you! Just tell what the hell you want and let us go! She needs to go to the hospital!" Castle yelled

Castle was serious. He had had enough of watching this bastard hurting his love. Hurting her so much she's now in and out consciouness. She needed help. Soon. Before it's too late.
