Kylie couldn’t hold back the tears and rushed to the back door since the front door was packed with reporters. She took in a sharp breath as soon as she came out to the backyard of the hotel. Why is this happening to her? She accepted the fact he would never love her but now after showing her a glimpse of heaven how could he throw her into the bottom of the pit?
The chilly air brushed her skin sending a chill to her bone but she was unaffected by this world. All she could think about was Sebastian. She knew his father never liked her but she never thought that he could make a mockery of her in front of the world.
“I was right about your relationship with Sebastian. You are more than just a secretary, aren’t you?” came a familiar voice. Kylie turned her head to meet the dark eyes of Brandon. He was offering her a handkerchief.
“Thank you, but I don’t need it,” Kylie said turning around to leave. She wiped the tears from her face with the back of her hand. She didn’t want anything to do with the Smiths anymore.
“I guess you are right. You don’t need this. You look even hotter with the smudged makeup of yours,” he said coming closer to her.
“Excuse me?” Kylie stepped back to create a fair distance between them. He looked drunk and his eyes were hooded with lust.
“I am serious, Kylie. I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the moment you stepped inside the hall with that dress of yours. It hugged your body perfectly showing every curve of you. I can’t explain how much I wanted you, Kylie. Leave Sebastian, he has a fiance now. Come to me and I will give you all the pleasures of the world,” he tried to hug her but Kylie staggered away.
“Don’t touch me. You are disgusting,” she snapped at him in anger. Suddenly his expression changed and his eyes became red like a monster. He forcefully grabbed her hand and pulled her closer to him. Kylie smelt alcohol in his body and felt disgusted by his touch. She tried to break free from him but he was stronger.
“You think I am disgusting? Huh! saying the whore who warms the bed of Sebastian,” he let out an animalistic laugh. Kylie shivered in fear.
After the sudden announcement of his engagement with Mae Wiggins, Sebastian was shocked for a few moments. But when he came back to his senses, his eyes searched for Kylie among the crowd. She wasn’t where he left her. As he was roaming his eyes throughout the hall he saw a glimpse of her running out of the back door. He wanted to run after her but only to be stopped by Mae.
“Where are you going? Can’t you see the reporters and guests are waiting for our speech?” she whispered holding his arm affectionately.
“I don’t care what they are waiting for Mae. This shit was created by my father and you. So I would let you both clear it up. And let me tell you clearly that I am already married so nothing can happen between us,” he said through gritted teeth and jerked her hands away from him. Giving a disappointed glare to his father he ran towards the back door in search of Kylie.
When he reached the back garden, he didn’t see anyone there. It was empty and chilly. Did she already leave? He thought in his mind and turned around to go back to the main entrance. But he was stopped in his way by a shiny thing on the ground.
He crouched down to see a familiar piece of earrings. It was Kylie’s and he remembered clearly because he saw it from close enough to remember its design. He picked up the earring and the handkerchief beside it. The handkerchief had some initials engraved on it, “B. S”.
“Brandon Smith,” Sebastian spat with a venomous voice.
‘I swear if you dare to do something to her, I will kill you Brandon, you bastard,’ he cursed his breath and pulled out his mobile from his pocket. Dialing Paul’s number he put the mobile on top of his ear.
“Track down Kylie’s current location and send it to me now,” As soon as the call connected he ordered. Paul had been working with him for more than two years now so he knew that something urgent must have happened to make his boss this impatient and angry.
“In a minute, boss,” Paul replied and cut the call. He opened his tab and turned on the tracker that he planted on Kylie’s mobile and in a few seconds a green dot showed her location on the screen.
Paul sent the location to Sebastian and called him back, “I have sent you the location, Sir. She’s in the same hotel where the event is going on. I heard some commotion yelling from the tracker. Mrs. Smith must be in some danger,” he said walking to his car. Sebastian’s grip on his mobile became strong making his knuckles turn white.
Sebastian ended the call tapped on the location started running in the direction it was showing. He came to the third floor and stopped in the hallway. The tracker showed that she was on this floor and near him. Sebastian became desperate and ran to every door on that floor. He checked every room in search of her and then he heard it.
Kylie cried out for help but all her cries became painful moans because of the cloth gagged in her mouth. Her hands were tied on the headrest of the bed. While Brandon stood in front of her slowly removing his clothes. Kylie pulled her hands as hard as she could to get rid of the ropes. But it only made red marks on her hands instead of coming off.
When she lost all hope of getting out of there, she heard loud banging on the door followed by a very familiar voice. Sebastian, he was here. He was here to rescue her. Tears started rolling down her eyes when the door burst open and a crazy-looking Sebastian entered the room.
