“Even if they are still alive, we’ll kill them soon enough, boss.” One goon says, throwing me over his shoulder
“You fucking better,” Retsos sneers. “Now shut her the fuck up!”
Punching a hole in the dirty mattress, the other goon comes out with a handful of disgusting fluff.
“Open up, princess,” he taunts, a stupid grin coming over his fat face.
“Fuck off!” I spit. But opening my mouth was the wrong move.
All I can do is kick and scream as he shoves the disgusting innards between my lips and holds his hand there so I can’t spit them out.
It’s so disgusting that my whole body wretches. But the goon holds me tightly, and I barely make a dent as he carries me away.
“This way!” Retsos yells. “Get her in front of us. These bastards are moving quickly. I thought we set up a fucking perimeter around this place?”
Hot tears carve down my cheeks as I struggle to break free, to spit out the disgusting gag in my mouth, to cry for help. But it’s no use. I’m too weak.
Please be here, Leo. Please be alright. Please be angry.
My heart aches as I’m carried down a creaky set of stairs like a human shield.
All my life, I’ve been used by powerful men as a pawn. I’m so fucking sick of it.
Leo was the first person to ever make me feel like an actual queen. For a while there, I couldn’t help but think of how nice it might be to get married. To rule together.
But now he may be dead… and I might not be far behind him.
The thought hurts, but I can’t stop myself from sinking into a dark pit of self- hate and pity.
I’ve been so stupid. My life was never going to have a happy ending. This was never a fairy tale. The world I was born into was always far too dark and gritty and real to escape.
Hell, as I’m manhandled onto a platform, then pushed face first through a rusty door, I’m almost mad at Leo for getting my hopes up.
This was all I was ever destined for.
Tragedy.
“Fuck!”
Something catches the goon who’s covering my mouth in the arm and his hand falls from my lips.
It takes me a second to realize what just happened, but when I do, I desperately try to climb out of my deep pit of self-pity.
This isn’t over yet. I can’t let it be.
Until I see Leo’s body, there is hope.
Taking a deep breath, I start to scream.
“Leo!”
His name is the only word on my mind. Nothing else dares come out as I scream my dark prince’s name over and over again.
“Shut her up!” Retsos demands, stepping over his wounded goon.
“Boss, I’ve been shot…”
“I don’t give a shit. You’re—”
