chapter 7
"Where are we going?" I ask him.
"Can't tell you that, Top-secret… safety rule number one!"
Well how can that be a safety rule if I don't know where I am? How can I make sure I know how to get away in case of an emergency? Or… oh no… he wasn't telling the true and he's still kidnapping me and doesn't want me to know where I am so I can't escape…
I need to memorize things we cross while driving to there but I don't know where we were when we got into the jeep. Well, any information is better than nothing at all.
Twilight is coming and soon I will not have anything to memorize because of the dark. I sigh… at least the kids don't know what is happening.
We are driving in the back roads and I am not familiar here. I don't see anything that will tell me where I am. I turn to watch my kids, they're asleep again. Riding in a car does that to them. I wish I was that small again and everything was still ok.
It takes us another 2 hours before he turns of the road onto a dirt road, big trees are around us soon and it is pitch-dark. My hands grasp the leather seat of the car and I shut my eyes. He drives hard and the trees are so close by. I am terrified we will hit one.
The further we drive, the more snow appears on the road. I can feel it in my ears that we're riding on a mountain. Soon all around us there is nothing more than snow and pine trees.
"We are there." his muscular voice tells me.
I squeeze my eyes shut and open them to gaze around me looking for 'there'… seeing nothing.
"Where?" I ask.
"Look at my left."
And indeed I see something, a wooden cabin.
"Let us get the kids inside. After I turn off the car it will get cold in no-time."
While I grasp Jade, he grasps Jackson. Hoping they will sleep until tomorrow morning.
We walk to the cabin but with no snow boots on it takes me some effort to get there.
Edward is already inside with Jackson on the couch trying to light the fireplace. Some candles are lit around the place. He sees me watching them.
"We have no electricity here, no sewage. This is survival back to basic. The only way they can't find us. Your Iphone is at your house so they can't track you."
No! How can I be so stupid, my phone, I could have called the cops. I mentally slap myself.
"It is late, tomorrow we talk more. I have two bedrooms, one for the kids and one for us…" he doesn't even blink when he tells me this.
"No way are we sharing a bed!" I say. I want to scream, but the kids would wake up.
"Sorry… it is that or freeze to dead on the couch, take your pick. The kids have a single bed, we have a double bed." he shrugs and walks toward the couch to pick up Jackson.
I have no choice again and follow him with Jade in my arms.
When the kids are in bed, he opens a cabinet door to take out two glasses and from another cabinet he brings out a bottle of rum.
"Drink this to numb yourself. You will be able to sleep some with it."
I look at him like he's lost his mind.
He rolls his eyes and whispers angrily "I am not a monster. I don't do forced sex with drunken girls." Looking into my eyes he says "If and only if we ever have sex, it will be from your initiative…"
He takes my hand and puts the glass with rum in it "Drink!" He orders.
