Chapter 8
When you want things to go fast they go slow, it was really a piss take. My whole body killed as I tried to move, then it hit me it was only Saturday because yesterday was Friday, the day Daniel hit me and locked me up in the cell.
Thinking back I canât believe Daniel had that much anger welted up in him, there was obviously something disturbing him and I guessed it had to do something with the gang. I couldnât imagine being in love with Daniel, it seemed so unreal and beyond my standard because I was just a messed up girl with a messed up story.
I waited patiently distracting myself by learning my words in my head for the French exam that was on Wednesday, but my mind wouldnât focus on anything but next Saturday the day that would change everything.
That day will be either good or bad for me, but it will be a day definitely to remember. Footsteps approached getting nearer and nearer, I held my breath counting numbers but then lost track as it stopped. A sudden silence overcame the basement, I tried to keep my eyes shut but failed praying that it was anyone but Daniel because I couldnât taking another beating my ribs were already slightly cracked or bruised.
My eyes locked with the person in front of me, the light flickered on and our eyes locked in sync. A slight look of concern shot across Nateâs face but it went as quickly as Danielâs slap did. Breaking eye contact I gasped as the pain shot through my head at the sudden movement, Nateâs arm shot forward as he held onto my arm supporting me.
âYou shouldâve just said yes to me,â he whispered, and then I fainted but I could feel the other men unlocking the chains and Nate lifted me up bridal style, however nothing could take away the pain.
It was there, and it was going to stay for a long, long time.

I woke up to a beautiful surrounding, but it wasnât going to last looking out of the window the sky had already turned dark.
âFinally sleep beauty,â I flinched at the voice, turning around I was met with Nateâs figure on the right side of the bed he moved forward by the second.
He lifted his hand, I moved back in fear but he extended it and gently grazed it up and down my cheek. I was left dumb folded, maybe I misjudged him. He can be capable of love in an unusual way, I guess even that was enough for him.
The door barged open, my eyes left his and looked at the figure standing in the doorway. It was Daniel, when his eyes locked with mine my breath hitched in my throat and suddenly the urge to run was getting stronger however when his eyes moved to see Nate and me in the position we were things didnât exactly go down well.
âWhat the hell is this?â he shouted, I stayed silent but Nate got up swiftly smirking a little as he walked towards his cousin.
âDonât worry cuz,â Nate said lightly, âI got it all under control,â with that he bumped past Daniel on the way out.
May Nate was seeing that Amy was a good for nothing bitch, that she was manipulating Daniel and was planning on destroying him. I hope he saw it, it would only make my work much more easier which reminded me I needed to get Amy to confess but I was alone, in a room with Daniel at the moment and the tension in the air seemed to grow heavier by the second.
I didnât dare breathe; I held my breath as Daniel walked closer and closer to the bed. My senses were shouting at me to move, but my body willed itself to stay fixed in the same position frozen once again.
âAre you jealous of Amy?â he smirked, amusement danced in his eyes and I was left stunned. He was finally having a conversation without screaming, shouting or hitting me.
Bang, bang finally some progress here.
âN-no,â I stuttered, it seemed that whenever Daniel was around my body seemed to malfunction, getting everything muddled up and slowing things down but hey cut me some slack here my head was slammed against the floor yesterday which couldâve given me concussion.
âStuttering? Already I see,â my brows knitted together in confusion, what he was on about I had no idea but I stayed silent looking at my hands in my lap.
âHere are you pills,â he chucked them at me, one hit my cheek and the other landed next to me on the bed. I cringed at the touch of the sharp box against my skin although I stayed silent; Danielâs intense gaze that he was famous for once again started eyeing me.
Through my covers I felt naked, I could see his gaze darken and his hand clench as I awaited another beating, clenching my eyes shut nothing came but the sound of the door slamming which made me squeal in surprise.
Looking around the room, the clock displayed six thirty in the evening which explained why it was dark outside. That meant I had been unconscious all through breakfast and lunch, what an impact that hit mustâve had on me.
As I tried to move off the bed, my stomach contracted and pain shot through me. My broken ribs werenât doing so well, so I leaned forward and walked out of the room with my pills like an old lady. Holding onto the wall I walked slowly towards my room, it took me at least ten minutes just to get down the corridor and in front of my door. There was no way this pain was leaving any time soon, gripping the knob of my room I pushed it open to see everything were it was as I last left it.
I did nothing; I crept into bed and let the sleep come over me. There was nothing else I could do, just wait and get hurt but nobody seemed to understand my pain.
A silent tears rolled down my cheek, I made no attempt to brush it away as more tears streamed down my face I turned my head into the pillow to muffle my cries. However, much I tried I couldnât stop crying this made my stomach ache even more but it wasnât like it was going to get better anyways.
I missed my mother, the very thought of her made me cry even more. If only life was easy, but then life has to have its revenge as well.
I fell into a dark hole of nightmares, and they came and came mocking at my expenses, laughing at my misery.
âMummy?â I whispered, turning around I saw that I was on the bed on my own the promise my mother made she didnât fulfil she said she was going to sleep with me.
âMummy?â I whispered louder, if I had shouted any louder my father wouldâve beat my mother because of me. The urge of jumping out of my bed increased until it could no longer be contained. I slowly made my way out of the room, opening the door slightly I heard noises from down stairs. They were loud bangs, roars and my father shouting.
âStop!â My mother cried, I could hear the desperation in her voice tears started to form in my eyes he was beating her again and I couldnât do anything because mum made me swear on her life that I would stay in my room whenever I heard my father shouting but he was no father of mine.
He was merely my father by name, just by name and my mother dropped his last name and gave me hers instead I was no longer Sidney Grace Sage, as of now I was Sidney Grace Parker being a light of beacon for my mother doing her proud.
âYou useless bitch,â I heard another slap as my father shouted, âyou donât even deserve me. I donât know what I was thinking when I married you!â Another slap whipped across my motherâs face, I could hear her panting and gasping for air he was strangling her
Quietly as humanely possible I made my way down the stairs clutching onto my teddy bear, God please keep mummy safe, I prayed in my mind but I got no reply. I jumped in shock as glass smashed across the room, standing at the bottom of the stairs the door of the living room was slightly open.
Through the gap I could see my mother being beaten, I sunk down onto the floor crying but it never stopped.
âIâve had enough of you!â My father screamed, he kicked my mother reaching his breaking point. The door flew open and he dragged my mother out by her hair with her crying.
Her eyes softened as they locked with mine, she mouthed hide and I instantly hid under the pile of coats under the hanger.
Once I was sure they had moved, I could hear screams from the kitchen. I willed myself to move and it was the worst move Iâve ever made.
There I saw my father stabbing my mother, the last words she mouthed to me was run and this was when my world broke apart.
âYou good for nothing fucking shit!â he kicked her lifeless body, I was shocked but my mind shouted and took control as I ran up the stairs crying myself to sleep.
âNO!â I woke up screaming, memories from that night came back. That man was no father of mine; I refused to be related to him. How could someone be that cruel and kill my mother, I was crying so much that I couldnât breathe properly.
Pain shot every time I coughed, holding my stomach I grasped onto the head of the bed as I got out. Seizing a hoodie from my collection of ragged clothes, I pulled it over my head and it reached up to my knees. Silently I was humming bonfire heart by James blunt, it was true. People like us, we donât need that much just some that starts the spark in our bonfire hearts.
Taking baby steps I made my way down the stairs, the birds were chirping loudly on a Sunday morning there was no reason whatsoever for it to be a good morning.
âWhat are you doing here bitch?â she smirked as she saw the damage that had been inflicted on me, I realised that this will be my only chance for her to say something and her being a blonde bitch itâd be the best time I would ever get.
âNothing more than you,â I retorted back, she seemed surprised at my bold answer and i felt confidence for once.
âYou better watch your tongue whore,â she sneered, âyour threading on thin ice,â she notified me, her eyes were incredible to watch the way red veins popped and her eyes widened it made me want to laugh and a smile broke out onto my face.
âYeah sure thin ice,â I dragged out the words sarcastically making her angrier than before, guess the little dog doesnât have patience tut tut.
âYou donât know who I am,â she scoffed, âI will kill Daniel, then I will take over his property and the first thing I do after that will be demolishing your life,â she said in a low but danger tone. I pretended to look shook but inside I was happy she had finally admitted it and the cameras were recording every single thing.
Guess what bitch, you just got outsmarted.
