God help me.

I have to stay conscious or else I don't know where I'll wake up.

"Please!! Let me go." I yelled but it came out just hoarse plead. My heart raced as adrenalin was coursing through my body which dulling the pain.

God! Why is this happening to me? What sin did I do?

I was rewarded by a hard kick in my stomach in return of that. I cried out and started sobbing. I curled into a ball and was trying to remain conscious when I heard cars screech and slam of car doors.

Ohmigod! They'll take me away.

My body shuddered at that thought, I curled into myself and tried to hide my face as much as I could. In the times of panic our mind thinks the crazy things. I thought if I could hide, if I could just closed my eyes maybe they won't be able to see me.

I heard someone grunt and thud, the sound when something hits the floor and felt someone's hand on my arm, I flinched. Hands, which were hard but held my arms with such soft touch, rolled me on my back. I tried to focus on his face.

"Maria ?" I heard an anguished voice.

Antonio.

"Antonio!!" I cried mumbling incoherent words.

"Shh cara. You are safe now. It'll be okay." He whispered softly.

"Antonio..." I whispered.

"Shush. I am here." he picked me up carefully.

I moaned in pain.

"It's okay, it's okay. Can you tell me what were they saying?" He asked softly while walking with me in his arms.

I tucked my head under his chin.

"Yeah... They.." Now that he was here and I was safe my adrenaline came crashing down, I was drained and just wanted to sleep.

"Keep talking to me cara." he said in a soft voice.

"They were following me." I whispered and swallowed, my mouth was dry as desert.

"Cara? And ?" he asked shaking me slightly.

"I called Tristan." I mumbled and moaned. The pain was so much. Just a week ago I was shot and now this. What the hell was going on?

"I want to sleep." I whispered.

He set me down on the back seat of a car and surprised me when he got in the back seat with me then took me in his lap.

"No, not yet. Just wait for some time. It's not a request. It's a command." he said and took my chin in his hand started moving my head from side to side.

"Take those bastards and tie them then throw them in cells. I'll deal with them later." he ordered to someone. I opened my just in slits.

I could see his clenched jaw his blue eyes, a darker shade.

He was angry.

He looked down at me and his eyes softened.

"Just stay awake." he said while patting my cheek lightly and traced his finger from my forehead to chin at the right side. A small cloth was in his hand when I opened my eyes next time, he pressed it to my forehead.

I hadn't even realised that my there was a cut on my forehead and blood was gushing from it.

Tristan got into the driver seat and slammed the door, started the car and accelerated to god knew where.

"Bloody bastards. I don't know how did they get near her." Tristan cursed. His profantities could made a sailor blush.

"I will not let them go easily." Antonio said and shook his head.

I didn't know how could someone be calm and terrifying at the same time

"Maria are you pain now? Wounded in any other place.?" he asked.

I moaned and opened my eyes.

When did I close my eyes?

"My head, and my ribs.." I whispered.

There was no energy left in me and I didn't want to waste, whatever was there, in talking.

I just closed my eyes again.

I felt the car stop and Antonio picking me gently then after some time he was placing me on a bed.

This is my life now. Being getting attacked, then saved by this handsome man then me being ending up in the bed.

I groaned again.

I felt a prick in my arm and then I felt nothing.

.............

I was shaking.

No, someone was shaking me.

"Wake up Maria."

I just snuggled into the pillow ignoring that sound.

"Maria!! Wake up."

I opened my eyes into slits and asked.

"What?" It came out like wahh.

"Come on wake up we have to get out of here." Antonio's voice filtered into my senses.

I sat up slowly, with his help obviously and took a stock of my injuries. Now there was just a dull pain in my head and ribs and I felt dog tired, even after sleeping.

Huh. Go figure

I stood up and immediately felt dizzy.

"Easy there."he help my arm unitl I was steady.

"Uhh... Thank you again." I said when I felt the dizziness to go away.

He just nodded.

We were not in his beach house but somewhere else, it was a small cabin or something. We walked towards the door and entered into the living room.

"Sit." he said.

Geez! Commanding much.?

But I sat down on a soft couch anyway.

"What's the time?" I asked looking around the room for a clock.

"It's 11:00 am."

I raised my eyebrow at him.

"How are you feeling.?" he asked

"Like I've been hit by a truck."

"Once you'll eat breakfast, you'll feel good. "

I nodded" Where are we?" I asked and leaned back on the couch and got comfortable.

"We are on one of my property."

Wow!! he is pretty much loaded.

"Where is Tristan.?" I asked and looked around.

Just as I asked about him. He entered with a plate of waffles and pancakes.

"Speak of the devil." Antonio muttered.

" Hey!! I brought breakfast." Tristan yelled as he walked towards the table and set the plates down.

I was shocked to see them in casual clothes and behavior then again I just met them once.

"After breakfast, we have to leave." Antonio says.

"But-" I started.

"Not this time Ms.Wilson as you saw what happened ." Antonio snapped.

Oh we are back to Ms and Mr. Game ?

"Okay. But where ?" Shoving a forkful of pancake in my mouth.

"You'll see."he said and took a sip of his coffee.

"We don't want to ruin the surprise." added Tristan and winked at me when I looked at him.

We finished our breakfast in a comfortable silence.

I guess I will be safe with them. I don't want to suffer that again.

I shuddered remembering those men and the pain.

"You okay?" Tristan asked.

"Yeah."I said and smiled at him.

"After 3 hours you have to take pain-killer." Antonio said as he glanced at his Rolex.

As I mentioned before, he was loaded.
