CHAPTER 107: THERE THERE, KITTY
LILY’S POV:
Nikolai just pissed me off and now I feel bad about how the chef just lost her job all because of me. I cried in the pillow and I couldn’t stop feeling bad.
This isn’t what I wanted, I feel horrible and it’s all my fault that I caused someone their job.
She didn’t deserve what happened to her. I only wanted to do something nice for Nikolai and he completely humiliated me!
“Asshole!”, I yelled and threw the pillow at the mirror. I was panting and trying to calm down. And to top it all, he just left!
‘Fuck him!’, I huffed and puffed.
I tried to breathe in and out to calm my nerves but I still felt that anger in my chest. Then suddenly, I heard a loud bang from downstairs.
I jumped to my feet in fear and went slowly to the door. I opened it, walking towards the staircase.
“What was that?!”, I asked no one in particular but go no response. The house was as quiet as a graveyard.
I frowned at how quiet everywhere was which was unusual. In as much as Nikolai likes his house workers to do their jobs quietly, they wouldn’t be this quiet when he isn’t at home.
Something was off.
I breathe out and walked as quietly as I could to the stairs.
“MISS LILY! RUNN!!!”.
My eyes went wide as I saw what was in front of me. A worker with bloody clothes, ran from outside and yell for me to run.
I gasped at the figure that followed behind him. Roman!
Frightened by what was happening, I quickly ran back upstairs and dashed inside the room, slamming the door and locking it.
I acted fast, using every bit of my strength to push the cabinet behind the door. I clasped my mouth with my palm, moving backwards but keeping my eyes at the door.
I could hear it. Slow movement, walking towards the door.
“Open the door dearest”, I heard Roman’s chilling voice behind the door. It sent chills down my spine.
I tried as much as I can to stay quiet. I ran to the closet and just before getting in, there was a loud blow at the door.
It was Roman, he was looking for a way in!
Just as I got there, Roman burst in and grabbed my hair. He pulled me out of the closet and I was trapped.
“NOOOO!!!”, As Roman dragged me through the floor, I screamed and cried out in pain and terror. My hair felt like it was being ripped out of my scalp, and my body was being scraped and bruised as he pulled me across the rough floor.
I tried to grab onto something, anything, to stop him, but he was too strong. I was helpless, completely at his mercy.
“Pleaseee!! Don’t do this!!”, I begged him.
My screams echoed through the room, but no one came to help me. I was alone and Roman was unstoppable. He dragged me to the living room and I saw the furniture and decorations blurring by as I was pulled across the floor. I was terrified, and I didn’t know what Roman was going to do to me next.
He didn’t say anything and just continued dragging me and I struggled.
Roman stopped dragging me, I lay on the floor, feeling tired and scared. He stood up, his chest moving up and down, and a sinister look in his eyes.
“Long time, no see sister in-law”, He said.
I gasped, shaking my head and begging with my teary eyes for him to stop whatever he wants to do.
He looked around the room and saw my phone on the table. He walked over to the table and picked up my phone. He smiled slowly as he looked at it. His smile got bigger and bigger as he realized he now had control over my phone. I watched in horror as he put my phone in his pocket. I felt desperate and scared. I knew I was in trouble. Roman now had my phone, and I had no way to call for help. To call Nikolai.
I was all alone, and he was in control.
“What are you doing Roman?!? Nikola’s gonna kill you!!!”, I tried to sound tough, struggling to sit up.
The sinister smile on his lips fell and he moved to where I was. He squat to my height and grabbed my jaw, squeezing it.
“My dear brother isn’t capable of killing me. He isn’t tough as he claims, he’s just a weakling!”, He concluded and shoved me, I didn’t expect it so I hit my head on the table.
“Shit”, I cussed under my breath. I tried to touch the spot and I felt blood. I got more terrified.
His laughter filled the large living room and I shuddered.
“Don’t do this Roman. I’m begging you!”, I tried to reason with him not to hurt me.
It turns out I know Nikolai more than Roman does. He believes Nikolai is now weak and wouldn’t kill but one thing he doesn’t know is that, I’m the one involved.
Nikolai will kill him if he hurts me.
“You know… I never would have hurt your dear old father if he didn’t poke his nose in my business and made my plans delay”, He paused to see my reaction, then continued with a smirk, “… but I have to say, hurting him was refreshing”.
“YOU MONSTER!! I HATE YOU!! YOU’RE A MONSTER!!”, I yelled and cried, Roman laughed out loudly and resumed dragging me by the hair.
I struggled and struggled but not luck.
“Stay still you bitch!!”, I suddenly stopped, kicking me on my stomach.
The pain was too much to bare and I don’t think I could keep on.
“Pl… please s-stop this… I b… beg of you”.
It was as if my pleas fueled his satisfaction. He leaned to my side and rolled my hair in his hand and I winced in pain, tears running down my eyes as I tried to stay awake.
“Hurting Nikolai would be too easy as he is immune to physical pain… but hurting those he loves… would make his heart ache”, Roman declared and hit me across the face.
Everything turned blur and I couldn’t hear anything again. I forced myself to stay awake as I felt dizzy.
‘Maybe if I stay awake, Nikolai would be able to find me’, I thought to myself but something was making it almost impossible.
I blinked once… twice… then I was gone.
When I woke up, I was in a strange room. It was completely dark, with no windows or lights. I was scared and confused, and I didn’t know where I was or how I got there.
“HELPPP!! Anyone?!! help meee!!”, I tried to call out for help, but my voice was weak and barely audible. I was all alone, with no way to communicate with anyone outside the room. I didn’t have my phone as Roman took it.
To make things worse, I was tied up. My hands were bound behind my back, and my legs were tied together. I couldn’t move or escape. I was trapped, and I didn’t know what Roman was going to do to me.
“Oh my God”, I muttered to myself, I was scared and helpless, and I didn’t know how to get free. The ropes were tight and uncomfortable, and I could feel them digging into my skin. I struggled to move, but it was no use.
Just as I was getting used to the darkness, I heard the sound of the door unlocking. My heart started beating fast as the door opened and someone came in. The person flipped a switch, and suddenly the room was filled with bright light.
I squinted, trying to cover my eyes from the sudden brightness. And then I saw him – Roman. He was standing in the doorway, smiling in a mean way as he looked at me.
“There there kitty”, he said. I felt very scared and tried to move away from him. But I was tied up and couldn’t go anywhere. I tried to struggle against the ropes, but they were too tight.
Roman took a step closer to me, his eyes looking scary and mean. I tried to push myself away from him, but I was stuck. I was all alone and trapped, and I knew I was in big trouble.
“Don’t come any closer!”, I yelled.
Roman kept smiling at me, and I could tell he was enjoying seeing me scared and helpless. I didn’t know what he was going to do to me, but I knew it wasn’t going to be good.
I wish Nikolai was here! I want him here!
