Chapter 25

Amanda Pov.
-If you'd just tell us more about the one who put Denver's son in the hospital, you'd be free to leave anytime. Says a manly leak that all he can do is sedate me when he can't get anything out of me.
-Whoever put Josh in the hospital will find me, and then, gentlemen, you'll pray that tou didn't touch me at all. I say trying to stay lucid.
I have no idea what they're injecting me with each time, but I know that whatever it is, it's some serious stuff.
-Damn idiot... Says the man and leaves the room where I am being held captive.
It's been a week since I've been held captive in this abandoned factory. A week of them trying to get me to sell Ron for my freedom. I didn't do it. I wouldn't be a real friend to Ron if I gave in so quickly.
I don't know much about what happens to me after they sedate me. I remember only fragments. What I'm sure of is that whatever they do to me when I'm sedated, when I wake up I feel dirty. I feel their hands on my body, touching me, but I can't tell if they did anything else. I hope they haven't raped me, but with such a flow of men it's futile to think I'm still a virgin.
I refused to cooperate with them from the first moment. When I had to wait for that "Lord" they kept talking about, I was shocked to see that he was Josh's father.
As soon as I saw it I knew it was all about revenge. Ron embarrassed Denver when he put Josh in the hospital. As you can see, Russell's self-esteem is very low.
It wasn't until I found out it was revenge that I smiled for the first time, proud of Ron and the fact that he beat Josh. I'm not going to betray him or collaborate with these bastards, whatever they promise. I will put up with whatever they want to do to me...I'm already sure that they've done almost everything they can do to me. I'm also sure they took away my innocence, because they're trash.
I try to cover my breasts with my hands because they decided not to give me clothes and humiliate me.
-Are you really beaten in the head? I hear the voice of the one who always calls Ron to scare him.
I'm present at the conversations, but I'm too drugged to be able to react.
I think it's called Ghost...I'm not really sure.
Everything is foggy.
- You are an idiot. I say and hit my head against the wall fighting the sedative in my body.
- Maybe... But at least I know when to take advantage of the situation. I told you before... If you simply gave us more details about Stallion, you could go home.
Ghost…It's different. Maybe he is the one in charge and is to blame for what I have to endure, but he seems to feel sorry for me. I mean, sometimes when I'm sedated, I hear him talking to someone on the phone about me. When he talks to that person he seems sorry that I have to go through all the humiliations I am subjected to. I'm not sure exactly what he's saying on the phone, but his tone indicates it.
- I am loyal. I answer him simply and close my eyes.
-That's right... He says almost in a whisper, but I can hear him quite well.
There's the sound from the camera on my phone and normally I'd open my eyes, but now it seems like the serum that idiot gave me earlier is working on me.
After a few tens of seconds voices are heard. I can successfully recognize Ron's on the phone and I would scream at the top of my lungs for him to hear me, but all I manage to get out of my mouth are a few indecipherable mumbles.
Damn...I'm going to be trapped here for the rest of my life.
I can hear Ghost talking to Ron for quite some time, but I can't understand anything of the conversation. Some time later I feel two arms lift me from the infected mattress and I am carried I have no idea where. I feel a breeze of cold air over my half-naked body and again I only make a few indecipherable grunts out of my mouth. I move closer to the foreign body in search of warmth, then I'm placed on a soft bed. If I could, I would pray that nothing would happen to me, that someone wouldn't come and touch me again. But, I can't do anything in this state, and when I wake up, I won't remember what happened to me.
- I'm sorry, Amanda...I didn't know. I recognize the voice as Ghost's.
What I don't know is why he's apologizing. Isn't it a little late to apologize for everything I've had to go through?
After a few seconds I feel a material covering my body and I feel relieved. Today I will no longer be humiliated. You don't know how bad it is to be in a vegetative state and not be able to defend yourself against anything. Also, the worst thing is that I am always aware. I am in a state of conscious sleep and I feel everything that happens to me. The "good" part of all this is that... When the sedative wears off, I don't remember anything. And I don't even want to remember. I think I would suffer more than I already do.
-Why didn't you say anything about your mother? Why didn't you say your mother was Gabriella? Ghost says as if terrified.
I think the sedative is affecting me too much. Why would the man who humiliated me all this time be terrified? And what does my mother have to do with all this? How does he even know mom?
God...I wish I could remember all of this so I could ask the right questions.
