Chapter 5: Possess
Lucy
Darkness.
That was my world now. Darkness, and a sharp pain where my wrists were bound behind me. I slumped against a wall, fading in and out of sleep for a while, not sure how long Iâd been a captive. Not sure of much of anything.
My head felt heavy; my mind fuzzy with some sort of drug. The only thing I was sure of was that Lucas Alastair was my enemy. His name was on my lips, burning through the haze of my thoughts. There was hate there, although for a long while, I wasnât sure why.
Lucas Alastair.
Images and impressions came to me after a few hours in the dark: flashes of things that happened before, fleeting, but insistent.
A phone falling through the air.
Rough hands in front of my face, closing in.
The sting of a needle in the back of my neck.
The sound of Maxâs voice, tinny and far away, calling my name...
I couldnât hold onto one thought for very long. The drugs were strong, pulling me down, down, down, like I was slowly drowning, looking up at the world through rippling dark water as I sank to my doom.
I donât know how long I sat in the nothingness, my aches and pains my only ties to the real world. After what seemed like an eternity, I snapped awake, feeling cool air hitting my skin. A door was open before me, dim light filtering into the blackness.
âGet up, Toy.â
The gruff voice in my ear made me stiffen, sour breath and the smell of cigarettes making me gag.
Strong hands lifted me from the floor, and I cried out, the pain in my arms singing out, my wrists feeling like they were bleeding where the restraints chafed. Handcuffs, maybe, from the feel?
He pulled me roughly through the doorway and down a hallway. My head was still nodding, my vision blurred, but something about this place seemed almost... familiar.
We reached the end of the hallway, and I looked up at my captor, but his face was obscured in shadow. He rapped on the door, holding me up by the armpit with one hand. I squirmed, his grip bruising, but I was too weak to put up much of a fight. I almost lost my footing, dizzy and sick, but he pulled me back up effortlessly.
âCome in.â
The door swung open, and I made out a woman in black and whiteâa maidâs uniform?âbefore being pushed into the room. The door slammed shut behind me, and I startled, almost losing my footing, before swaying upright again.
The woman grabbed my arm and led me further into the room. Crimson flashed across my vision, and the sight of a roaring fire to my left.
Oh, God, no...
The memory of this place was slowly dawning on me, and what it represented. He was here. This was his domain. The place where he played with his âtoysâ in private.
âAh, Lucy. There you are.â
His voice was like ice water through my veins.
âYou look beautiful, as always,â Mr. Alastair said, then chuckled softly.
