Chapter Seven

Sophia

It doesn’t take Roger long to summon me again. A premonition tells me this might make him more volatile than if he waited a few more days.

The dress that arrives is pink again. I don’t understand his obsession with the color pink and I don’t care to dive into his psyche to find out why either unless it’s going to help us get out of here, which was wholly doubtful.

I don the ball gown. It’s heavy against my skin, and the layers of the skirt are puffy. It’s off my shoulders and I feel the biting cold air dig into me as I’m escorted out.

I’m taken to the same room I was taken to the night before.

Roger greets me with a congenial smile but there’s a crazy light behind his eyes and my skin turns even colder. His tuxedo seems a size too big, but it doesn’t bother him.

Moments after I enter, Kayne is brought in.

I’m beyond shocked at the sight of Kayne. He’s wearing a tuxedo as well. One that fits his muscular body to perfection. He is still wrapped in chains. Still has the ball gag in his mouth.

My heart flutters for him. My eyes turn sorrowful because I know what I need to do. I have to give myself to Roger to set Kayne free. It’s the only way.

The guards remove the chains around Kayne’s arms and use them to bind his wrists to the wall; his arms lifted high above his head.

“There. Now, don’t we all look nice? Nice enough for a grand dinner and of course the evening’s entertainment,” Roger says, distracted by his watch. “All right. There.” He looks at us, smiles broadly, and starts to whistle.

“I must admit the last two times have not gone my way. I’ll admit it,” he lifts his hands in surrender. “But I think I’m about to outdo myself here tonight.”

My mouth dries. I seek out Kayne but his features give away nothing.

“Now. I’m going to have them remove the chains from around your arms, Langley. But just so you know, I’ve now linked your cuffs. Yes, they are forever intertwined. Just like the lovers you are,” he laughs but there is nothing pleasant about it.

“Oh and Kayne. I set her frequency to yours. From experience you must know she won’t be able to handle that kind of electrical charge, am I right? She doesn’t have your stamina, your training. Of course, if you want me to test it out, make one wrong move. I guarantee she ends up dead from heart failure. Are we clear?”

Kayne doesn’t say a word but I can see how this is affecting him.

I want this torture to end. I can’t take it anymore. I’m not equipped to deal with things like this. I can’t stand this anymore.

“Roger,” I say. He holds up a finger to silence me.

“There’ll come a time when you’ll be allowed to talk but that time isn’t now.”

“Remember, Langley, one single move, and I’ll fry her. Do you understand?”

He knows Kayne can’t answer him.
