Chapter 13
Zoey
âPlease, Iâm sorry,â I beg on my knees.
Mitch clenches he teeth as he hovers over me. His eyes narrow as his face reddens with anger. âYou shouldnât have even left, Nicole. All of this is on you.â His hand comes up, and I feel the impact on my face. Before I can recover, his fist comes crashing into the side of my head.
âThis is all your fault. You deserve all this. You fucking bitch! Now look at what youâve done.â Mitch shows me his hand; itâs bruised and bloodied.
My face and head are screaming in pain. My eyes canât focus beyond him. I feel like this all looks familiar, but I canât make out my surroundings. Then, I hear a grunt.
âZo, donât give up. Iâve got you.â Ryker. Itâs Ryker. Where am I? My head, the pain, I canât focus.
âRyker! Where are you?â I scream.
âAw, isnât this cute. Two little fucking love birds. Well, problem is, youâre supposed to be marrying me. But Iâll tell you what, letâs take care of this little problem. Shall we?â Mitch drags Rykerâs beaten body over to me. My eyes start to focus, and I realize Iâm back at the house in New York.
How did I get back here? When?
âMitch, please. Iâll marry you. Just ⦠Just let Ryker go!â I plead.
âYeah, no. Not going to happen, sweet cheeks. So, letâs get on with it.â Mitch pulls off Rykerâs blindfold.
His eyes. The blue in his eyes is gone. They are grey, muted, lifeless. My head shakes back and forth, and my eyes open wide while my lips tremble.
âZo, donât look,â Ryker begs, but I canât obey. No matter how hard I try to turn my head, it stays looking right at him. âTurn away, Zoey.â
Mitch stalks behind Ryker. âI want to watch your face, Nicole. Make sure to watch, love.â
âNo! Please! Donât do this, Mitch! Donât hurt him! Iâll marry you. Iâll come back home. Iâll never run again! Please, donât hurt him!â My body is frozen in place, and my screams go unanswered.
âIâm not going to hurt him, Nicole. Iâm going to end him.â Mitch holds up a gun to the back of Rykerâs head.
It fires, and I scream, the world around me turning black.
âRyker! No! Ryker!â
My body jolts up from the bed. Iâm drenched in sweat, crying and clenching my chest. Ryker comes running into the bedroom as I try to catch my breath.
âZo! What happened?â He jumps into the bed and wraps his arms around me, pulling me into his chest. âSweetheart, youâre shaking. Talk to me.â
My breathing is heavy, my chest heaving as I try to take in air. âNightmare.â
âFuck, Zo.â He squeezes me and rubs my back. âWhatever it was, itâs just a dream. Iâm right here. I wonât let anything happen to you.â
Ryker stands, walking into the closet. Slowly I sit up and shift myself to the edge of the bed on his side. My body shivers from the memory of the nightmare. It felt so real. The loud bang of the gun that went off, the ringing in my ears from it.
