Thanks for the reviews. Sorry about leaving it on a cliffhanger, a particularly cruel one. So, many of you guessed who the attacker was, everyone one who said Matthew Parker, you were right. The creepy prison guard is back.

This chapter is very, very short but it's because the next one is rather long. So if you plan on reading on be prepared.

Disclaimer: They're not mine. They belong to Dick Wolf, but ya'll knew that anyway.

Chapter 9

Olivia had quickly worked out that she was in the trunk of a car. It was dark but there was a dull glow coming from off of the lights. The sound of the engine vibrated through the floor, hurting her head even more. She felt sick, really sick, the movements of the car made her feel worse, much, much worse.

Her hands were tied in front of her, with what she could see was a cable tie. It was cutting into her flesh, painfully so. She looked around the small trunk, memorizing it in seconds because that's all it took. She rolled over so she was facing the door, she looked for someway out but she couldn't find one.

Images of what had happened at her apartment began to flash before her eyes, uncontrollably. She hated that, that she couldn't even control her own thoughts. However, something nagged at her, what he had said to her.

"Looks like I finally caught you fish…"

"Fish,"

"Fish,"

The words bounced about her head until it caused nothing but more of a painful headache.

Once more she looked around the trunk, however, things quickly got groggy again. She was becoming sleepy and eventually the urge to give into it all was too much and she was out once more.

Olivia could only look around the apartment she had been brought to. It was tidy, very tidy, except for a table that was littered with papers and newspapers and such. Her head was aching, she guessed from whatever drug she had been given.

She had quickly realized the moment she had regained consciousness, that she was tied to a beam in the middle of the open planned apartment. Although she had tried to see where her attacker was she saw no one. She couldn't believe he would leave her alone, not now, not after all he had gone through to get to her.

She began pulling on the ties around her wrists, what she guessed they were still cable ties. She was having no luck what-so-ever. They weren't coming lose, but she already knew that, they were designed to stay fastened and she knew that was why so many kidnappers chose to use them.

"You can keep tugging on them all day but they're not going to budge." A familiar voice said from behind her.

It took all of a second for her to remember where she had heard it from, Sealview, CO Matthew Parker. Her body began to shake as memories of Sealview flashed back to her.

She began to tug harder on the tiees. "Help!" she bellowed. "Somebody help me!"

Parker quickly ran over to her and stuffed a rag into her mouth before quickly using another to make a gag that he tied tightly at the back of her head. Unable to shout she just continued on pulling on the ties, whimpering as they cut into her flesh more, but showed no signs off breaking.

"You just keep struggling fish, I like 'em feisty." he said as he stroked her face with his knuckles.

Olivia snapped her face away from his touch like it had delivered an electric shock. She felt dirty from it. She wanted him nowhere near her.

"You know it was a lot of fun getting to do what I did to find you, but not as much fun as finally getting to show you your place and role in this world is going to be. You're mine now fish."

"Fuck you!" she muttered through the gag. It was clear enough for him to get, plus it didn't take a rocket scientist to work out how much she despised him.

He just laughed. "I'll be doing the fucking." he told her.

She took his words in, she had no other choice. They sent chills up her spine. Mostly because she knew he meant them.

She just kept pulling on the ties, begging them to break…

TBC

Does that count as a cliffhanger?

Thanks for reading.
