*~Chapter Seven : Unraveled ~*
Hours later, Marty awakened, tied up to a bed in a beautiful Victorian room within Todd's mansion. She was frightened as she tried to sit up. She found herself bound tightly to the bedposts and wearing only her slip. Part of her breast was exposed. She saw Todd standing over the bed, a gleaming knife in his hand. Her eyes became huge when she realized how completely unraveled Todd had become.
"Marty, now we are going to talk," Todd spoke. "You are going to give me some answers. First of all, you're going to tell me... why did you marry Ponytail?"
"Todd, I-."
"No excuses. You are talking this time. This knife says you will talk," Todd said as he stared down at the blade with dangerous hazel eyes.
Marty trembled as she asked him, "Where is Cassandra? Where is our little girl?"
Tears filled her eyes. She had a bad feeling that Todd had gotten to Jason and Cassandra first. Had Todd hurt Jason? Had he taken Cassandra? Could she trust anything Todd said?
"She's safe," Todd promised in a hiss. "Now tell me the TRUTH!"
When moments passed and Marty trembled with hesitation, Todd flashed the knife before her eyes. "Don't make me hurt you, Marty," he warned.
