(A/N) sorry long time no update, I have been going to another city with my family lol, but I'm back now. Anyway, enjoy~

your body is freezing cold, your eyes are puffy, your back feels like torn apart. here you are, spend the day without sleeping and tied for 24 hours straight, hoping desperately that someone would save you, but as time went by, you started to lose your hope. your throat feels like burning and you are dying. but it seems that they realized your serious condition as the door creaked open, Javier step in with a tray of food and a glass of water.

"Hey, uh... how are you doing?", he asks as he put the tray on the nearest table, he took a seat in front of you but you have no intention to answer. you keep your heads down as you stared on to your lap, ignoring him. he sighed and take out a pocket knife, you shifted your gaze towards him with a worried look, making him chuckle, "oh bunny, don't worry, I won't hurt you.".

the nickname he gave you makes you sick of hearing it, but you shrugged it off when you realized he cut the ropes that tied you, you touch your bruised wrists and hissed in pain, "sorry, Dravon tied it too tight, he said it's to prevent you from escaping. wait here, let me get you something.", he said as he left to another part of the room. you shifted your gaze towards the door and it's not locked, when Javier entered, he forgets to lock it back. you saw this as an opportunity and dashed towards the door, you stumbled a little bit because of your sore legs. when you opened the door, you didn't recognize the surroundings. 

you knew that this is just another part of the mansion, you ran towards the hallway to a random direction. you could hear Javier screaming your name but you didn't stop running. then suddenly, a harsh grip on your arm stopped you. you look back and Javier stood there, he looks pissed as his eyes darkened, his grip tightened as you whimpered towards the pain.
"J-Javier, it h-hurts..", your voice cracked as he dug his nails deeper, then he dragged you back towards the basement and threw you to the floor.

"What the fuck are you doing?", he asks as he growled, your shaky breath and trembling hands show enough that you are scared of him.
"I-i...",
"YOU WANTED TO LEAVE, DID YOU?!", he raised his voice as you flinched towards it, tears streaming down your face as you crawl back from him until your back meet the wall, he stepped closer and clenched his fist tightly. He grabs the wooden chair and threw it across the room as it shattered into pieces, "IF YOU'RE TRYING TO LEAVE ME AGAIN, YOU WILL END UP LIKE THAT CHAIR OR EVEN WORSE, UNDERSTAND?!",
You nodded your head shakily as he didn't seem pleased by your answer, "Use. Your. Fucking. Words.", he commanded,
"Y-yes i-i u-understand..", you answered.

He sighed as he steps closer to your trembling form, he crouched down and caressed your cheek,
"When will you understand (Y/n)? There's no escape.  You belong here, to us...", he said with a sweet voice that makes you sick.
Again, you don't have the intention to answer as he sighed. He remembered something and walk towards the nearest table, he walks towards you with warm water and a clean towel, he grabs your hand gently and rubs the damp towel to your bruised wrist, after he finished, he kissed your wrist as you stare at his form and feel disgusted.

Then, he kissed your forehead,
"I brought you some water and food, eat.", he commanded and left the room, also locking it. You stared at it before hugging your body and exhaled a shaky breath,
'What just happened?'. You looked at the food and water as your stomach grumbled in hunger, you stand up with the remaining strength and grab the tray and the glass, you sit down on the floor and started eating.

Jace's POV

"How is she? Is she trying to escape? ", I ask as Javier sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose,
"She keeps ignoring me and yes, she tried to escape.", I didn't find his answer as a pleasing one, making me groaned in frustration.
Why didn't she understand? We did this for her and only her, We love her and only her, She is ours and belongs to us,
Why.
Why she didn't love us back? Is it just a matter of time? Mother... I don't understand, I love (Y/n), I want her, I cherish her with all my heart, I will give her everything I have.
Even, I'm willing to die for her.

"Relax Jace, I think she's still not used to it. It's just a matter of time.", my brother Dravon said as I sighed.

Right... it's just a matter of time.

Your POV

I placed the empty tray on the table and wandering around the room, searching for another possibility to escape this hell hole. It's impossible to escape from here, no window, no sharp object or something I can use to break the door, or even if I did break it, they will hear me and caught me already before I even step outside this building. I groaned towards the stress and the pressure of forced to staying here. I flinched when there's a knock on the door, I cleared my throat before mumbled 'enter', damn, my voice still cracked. "Hi (Y/n)", Jace said while approaching the empty food tray, "I see you ate well.", he said with a grin on his face as I look down to my bare feet.

"Cold", I mumbled as he shifted his gaze towards me, "you feel cold? Oh, I'm sorry, let me get you something.",
He said and left upstairs, and of course, locked the door. A few minutes later, he came back with a blanket and black jacket on his hand, he gave it to me before giving me a light peck on my cheek, I stare at him in disgust as he chuckled in amusement, I balled my fist, trying so hard to not to punch that damn.
"Oh don't look at me like that, sweetie.",  he said.

Disgusting nickname.
Disgusting guy.
All about you guys is just disgusting.
I'm sick of all of this.

I just miss my home, what the hell did these guys want from me?

He steps away from me to exit the room but my words made him stop on his track,
"H-how m-much l-longer?",
He raised his eyebrows, "what do you mean?",
"H-how much longer I w-will stay locked h-here? I-i'm scared.. i-it's cold", I said as I release a shaky breath,
He sighed as he approaches me, he caressed my cheek and kissed my forehead gently,
"oh.. you are so beautiful...",
he said before wrapping his arms around my waist, dropping the empty food tray on the floor.

"A-answer me..", I said as he tightened his grip, almost breaking my bone, I yelped in pain as he sniffed my hair,
"Mine.. mine mine mine mine", he keeps mumbled that word as I started to tremble, "J-Jace, s-stop, you're scaring me..", my voice cracked as he releases his grip from me,
"I-i did? Oh I'm sorry sweetie, please forgive me", he said and hug me back, he pecked my forehead several times,
"JACE STOP! LET ME GO YOU MONSTER!".

I screamed as I release myself from his grip, I breathe heavily and shivered towards his action.

He stares at me with disbelief as he gulped. He picks up the food tray and run upstairs, locks me down here alone again. Tears streaming down my face as I slid down and sit on the cold floor, hugging myself, hoping desperately that someone would help me.

Mom.. dad...

Jace's POV

What have I done?
She hates me now...
I just want to cherish her so bad...
I want to take her,
I want to make her mine, but everything that I do is always wrong in her eyes.
Why can't she see me? How long do I have to wait for you (Y/n)?
I-i am not a monster (Y/n)...
I just want to be the knight on the shining armor for you,
But why you see me as a monster?
I-it's... hurts.. so bad...
I-i...

Author's POV

Jace cried in the middle of the empty hallway, crying desperately for you, hugging himself while thinking about you. He clenched his fist tightly, he gritted his teeth as he screamed in anger, punching the tiled floor under him, making it tiles shattered into pieces.

'Fine.. you don't love me (Y/n)?..'

'Then I'll force you..'
