Natasha Kicked her heavily in the tummy, Ruby yelled in pain. She he was forced to arch her back as a result of how intense the pain was in her tummy. The more Natasha remembered how Naomi was tortured, the more her anger fuels. She kneed her on the face and threw a heavy blow to her nose.
Ruby, with a face full of blood, fell to the floor, screaming in pain.
Unknown to Natasha, Dmitry was already standing by his car and watching how Natasha was beating Ruby. With a clenched fist, he walked towards the scene and shouted in rage, “Natasha!”
Natasha, who had already squatted above Ruby and was hitting her repeatedly on the face, paused and turned, seeing Dmitry, her anger subsided slowly.
This time, Ruby was barely breathing.
Natasha stood from Ruby, panting heavily.
Dmitry placed a call across to the ambulance and in a few minutes, they came around and took Ruby away. All these while, Dmitry had not said a word but one could tell that he was very angry.
“Have you gone insane?” Dmitry finally spoke up.
Natasha’s fist was still dripping blood, she sighed, “that woman of yours is a devil.”
“A devil, you say?” Dmitry repeated. “Pray she doesn’t die.”
“I actually want her dead. She deserves more than death,” Natasha said. She didn’t know when tears started to spill off her face. The kind of torture Naomi was subjected to, no one should experience that type of torture.
“You murdered my mother, murdered my god sister and now you almost murder my woman,” Dmitry said.
Natasha looked away, she just wanted to crash into an empty room and cry, she was overwhelmed.
Dmitry then turned and began to walk towards his car.
Natasha wondered why he didn’t do anything to her. She thought he was going to fight for Ruby and probably hit her many times.
Has she gone too far by trying to beat Ruby till death? But Ruby deserves every beating. Ruby and her mother were the ones responsible for the death of both her father and her mother. They even stole all that belonged to her parents, leaving her with nothing.
Though she had assured herself she won’t rest until she takes revenge on them and takes all that belonged to her parents.
Natasha then walked inside her house.
She was in the shower, drowning herself under the water when she began to hear loud thuds, as though her door were being hit. She immediately ran out of the bathroom with a towel and quickly wore a trouser. She had just finished wearing a top when the door broke open.
About five burly looking men appeared.
“What do you want?” Natasha asked, calculating how she could take the men down.
The men charged at her. No matter how she tried, she couldn’t overpower even one of the me, for these men had trained their entire life underground.
Natasha was bundled away and whisked into the trunk of the car. About fifteen minutes later, she was locked up inside an empty room.
Natasha began to wonder who was behind this kidnap. Was it Ruby and her mom or was it…
The door opened all of a sudden and Dmitry appeared. Natasha gasped.
“You can’t keep me here against my will,” Natasha spoke boldly.
“Not after you almost murder my finacee,” Dmitry said. The doctor attending to Ruby had told him that Ruby is not likely to survive and that it would be better to send her abroad for proper treatment. Dmitry Was still considering it.
“Do you derive some type of joy from killing people?” Dmitry asked. He wants to know why a simple looking woman like Natasha is into the business of killing.
No one will kill without a reason. Dmitry had thought.
Natasha exhaled, “Ruby locked up my bestfriend for years and had her raped and beaten numerous times. And I’m not talking about being locked up for days or months, I’m talking about being locked up for five years.”
Dmitry smirked, “any evidence to back up what you just said?”
“The last time we met at the cemetery, I came to mourn my late best friend. She was killed by one of Ruby’s partners.”
“Should I believe that?” Dmitry asked.
“I do not have any concrete evidence but I have no reason to lie,” Natasha said.
“If my finacee didn’t die, you will remain here for a minimum of ten years, if she dies, you will remain here for the rest of your life. Start getting used to the environment and the type of food you will be served.” Dmitry said resolutely.
“This is illegal. You can just charge me to court instead of taking laws into your hands.”
Dmitry walked a bit closer to her, “if not that I’m properly raised. Trust me, I would have beaten you to death by now. It’s taking me so much self control not to lay hands on you despite how much of a nuisance and murderer you are.”
“First you appeared out of nowhere and claimed to own my kids, then you appeared as a doctor from the West, pretending to treat Rose when in fact, you only want me to doubt the fact that Ruby is their mother. And then you tried to take my kids with you to the west. Then you were found trying to kill Ruby.” Dmitry said. “It’s ironic because you looked innocent.”
“I looked innocent cause I’m innocent.”
Dmitry looked at her with disgust then turned and disappeared from the room. Natasha exhaled heavily and looked around the room, it was painted in white color and there were two windows there but both windows were heavily protected with burglaries. The windows could be opened and closed but looking out through the window, she couldn’t make sense of the environment as it was a cleared field.
Where could she be? Her phone had been taken from her.
After a while, she didn’t know how many minutes or hours had passed. The door opened a male guard appeared with a tray containing food and water. He placed it on the floor and walked away.
Natasha stood from where she sat, for she had been sitting on the floor since the room was empty. Seeing that the food was simply pure beans, her face turned into disgust.
She doesn’t like beans generally and seeing these watery and not-smelling-nice beans, her disgust increases. She abandoned both the food and water.
Natasha remained there until night time. She would stand, walk around, look through the window to see if she could see at least birds flying, but there were none. It was only at night time that she saw a few stars.
For the entire night, Natasha was not able to sleep. Where would she lay?
And then the second day came, she was served the same type of food but she still refused to eat it.
When it was the third day, Natasha only drank from the water because she had been thirsty.
When the fourth day came and the guard came around, Natasha had to speak up, “I do not fucking like beans, can you make something else?”
“Actually, we are ordered to serve you beans alone for the rest of your days here.” The guard replied.
“I see…” Natasha said and watched as the guard left.
When the fifth day came, Natasha had become so weak, she knew she had to eat lest she would faint but she had a plan. She hid behind the door, waiting for the guard to appear with the food.
The door opened as usual and as the guard stepped in, Natasha hit him hard on the jugular and he fell, unconscious.
Natasha took his pistol and walked towards the opened door, she peeped out and saw about five guards to the left and five guards to the right, all loaded with ammunition.
“How will she escape these people?”
All of a sudden, Natasha sighted a familiar figure far away, he was speaking with some soldiers. Isn’t that the king of the West? Anthony Roosevelt? He had once asked her to be friends with him and she had turned him down. But asking her means he liked her somehow, could he save her?
“King Anthony, please save me. It’s Natasha,” she screamed atop her lungs.
That caught the attention of the guards, they charged at her immediately and overpowered her, then they threw her inside with rage and helped their man out- the man that Natasha had knocked down.
“Woman, be careful. This place is a dead end, there’s no escape route for you.” One of the men said before they locked the giant door on Natasha.
Natasha prayed that Anthony would hear and respond. He’s her only saving grace right now.
