When her head hit the wall, it pained her so much that Jenny woke up from it. She opened her eyes, and saw the unfamiliar place she was at, a couple of men standing next to her. She felt a deja vu happening, like she has been in this situation. Even if she was in this mess the first time, it would only be natural for her to be scared. Her heart pounded to her throat. She breathed rapidly, and tried to think of a way to get away while at the same time thinking about how to buy herself some time.
“Why… why did you kidnap me? What do you want?”
A chubby man looked up and down her face, and smirked. “Girl, look at us, it is night time, so dark you can’t see your own hand in front of your face, what do you think we want to do?” He rubbed his hands and walked towards her.
Jenny tried to move herself back, she hated this fatso with her heart. “Don’t come near me! What do you want! My husband is the president of the Quarrington Group, whatever amount of money you want, just name it!” Jenny could only think of this to try and save herself.
The men exchanged some looks. One of them whispered, “Boss, this Quarrington, he’s a millionaire, or even a billionaire, if she really is his wife, we are going to be rich!”
She watched them talk about it and realized that the reason she was kidnapped was not for money. Who were these people? Why did they kidnap her?
“Harold loves me, he will give you any amount of money you want. If you just take the money and let me go, I swear I am not going to the police. How does that sound?” Jenny’s voice was shaking, she kept on using money to get herself out.
The boss of them walked to Jenny. “If you are lying to me, think about what is going to happen to you!” His gaze moved towards her breasts.
“I swear, I am not lying to you.” Jenny was so scared, but she needed to keep a clear mind for her own sake.
The guy handed her a cell and told her to call her husband to get the money. Jenny’s hands were shaking while she dialed the number. Please pick up, you have to pick up please!
The line connected, the other person didn’t even have the time yet to say anything when Jenny blurred out, “I have held hostage! Please help me!”
Their boss took over his cell and kicked Jenny to the floor. “This fucking bitch.”
On the other side of the line Harold was surprised that she would call him. When he heard her voice he knew that something unpredictable happened, and that she has already started to negotiate with the kidnappers.
“100 million if you want to see your wife again.”
Wife? Harold’s lips formed into a smile. “Okay. Tell me your location, I will come with the money.”
“I will send you a location per text message, if you are playing me, I am going to take your wife’s life for it.”
100 million was nothing to him, they were just some wannabe gangsters who wanted to get rich over night. He was just in mood for some games. Harold followed the directions in the message, left the money at the location they have sent him. But what he didn’t expect was that they took the money and left, he never even saw Jenny!
They dared to play with his woman’s life, just wait. His eyes lit up, he was so furious, it was like lions ready to break out of their cage. He asked his people to find those kidnappers.
Jenny watched how the men were looking at the money, drinking beer, they were so happy of what they achieved that they could not stop their celebrations.
“This Quarrington is a big fat dumbass, we actually tricked him!”
“100 million just like that, apparently she has quite some worth, this woman!” The men laughed.
Jenny could do nothing but to bury her anger, both her feet and hands were tied up.
“This money was totally worth it! We got our money, now we should finish the business we got paid for.” The boss mentioned their task that still needed to be done.
What? So this was not kidnapping? Someone paid them for this!
“Hey…” One of the men grabbed Jenny by the arm so hard that she yelled out in pain. She tried to shake it off like her life depended on it. “Let go of me! Don’t touch me! You…” She got hit on the shoulder again before she could finish her sentence, and lost conscious again.
Her head felt heavy, as if something was falling on her head all the time, and her hands and feet were so cold that she couldn’t move them. She was so weak, her mouth dry, she wanted to talk but she couldn’t open her mouth, she wanted to walk but she couldn’t move her body. She felt like she was trapped in a very small space, she couldn’t move, she felt so tired. It was as if she was going to pass out again. Once in a while she would hear the voices of the men.
“C’mon, hurry you guys, before someone sees us!”
“Boss, don’t just sit there and watch us, even thought she is not going to run away anymore, but burying her in a whole really is a lot of work.”
Another one of them said, “Exactly, I don’t get why that woman wants us to do that. Bury alive? What century is it? If she wants to see this girl dead it’s so easy, just cut her throat! Or throw in the sea and make her fishfood. That would have been so much more easy than this.”
“You have no idea how dumb you are. If we would cut her throat, her blood would be everywhere and leave evidence, do you want to get caught? If we throw her in the waters, she someone might find her before the sharks eat her, what then? Do you want to go to prison? Cause I don’t!”
The man was only thinking about the woman, he didn’t even listen to what his boss was saying.
“And plus, our investor said she wants this girl gone, vanished, understand? What else can we do? This is the only option we have, after a few months, her body will decompose and no one will ever know what happened here.” He have them a cold lok.
What? Buried alive? Jenny could only think about this now.
No. She didn’t want to die! Their conversation woke Jenny up, she started gaining some conscious again. She tried so hard to open her eyes, her body was paining her too much.
She noticed that her hands and feet were tied with a chain onto her body, she was curled up in the whole they dug for her. It was at least two meters deep, and just wide enough for her to fit. Just like that she was laying in there.
Her face, her body, her legs were covered with mud, not long after, she was buried in it. Even breathing became hard for her.
Jenny wanted to cry for help, but her mouth was taped shut. “Urgh…”
The men kept throwing dirt on her, they saw that Jenny’s body was still moving. Still not dead? She was pretty strong. When she was completely buried in the mud, she will suffocate to death.
Jenny’s tried to shake the mud off her body, to give herself some room to breath.
