Chapter 2

• "Let me go! Why are you doing this? Don't you have a conscience? I am sure that you have children or female relatives. What if it's them that are in this situation? Will you be alright with that?" Sarah shouted angrily but the group of men surrounding her just laughed at her.
• It's been an hour since she woke up and when she opened her eyes, she came across an unfamiliar room. She was sitting on a bench with her hands and feet tied. And she was not alone in that room. She was with five men whom she did not know. So here she is now, almost out of voice due to constant screaming.
• What do they want from me? She thought.
• Since she woke up, all she ever says is to let her go and ask them to do this but they never give her an answer. It's like they never heard her.
• Is it Jason? Isabel? But she knew that those two were not capable of doing this. She knew them too well. They might have betrayed her and hurt her but they could not stoop down this level.
• But if it's not them, then who? She silently asked herself again.
• She never had an enemy but after the scandal, she has started receiving a lot of threats and cat-calls. But who in their right mind would do this to a person they've never even met?
• "Don't you know me? My parents are influential people and when I get out of here, I'll make sure you rot in jail!" She said while struggling but they just laughed at her again.
• "Of course we recognize you! Who in the Philippines hasn't heard of you? Your entire face was plastered all over the newspapers and on the news! Were you the insane woman who attempted to murder your friend because you couldn't accept the fact that your boyfriend no longer loves you?" The other guy laughed again, mockingly.
• What the guy said made her speechless.
• Even these assholes knew about that scandal.
• One of the men approached her and then violently grabbed her jaw, forcing her to look at its face. She winced in pain because of the tightness of the man's grip on her jaw. The guy grinned at her, making her see its ugly set of teeth. Their faces are so close she could smell his foul breathing making her wanna throw up.
• "You know what? It's a pity. You're beautiful, seductive, and sexy. You are also from a well-known family. You and your family are well-respected but for just one guy, you threw away everything. If your problem is a man, then here I am. I can make you happy I can fuck you whenever and wherever you want! And unlike that ex-boyfriend of yours, you will be my only woman.” The guy said maniacally.
• She would punch the guy if she wasn't just tied up.
• Damn! This idiot's breath can kill me.
• "Fuck you! I’d rather die than let you fuck me!" She told him then she looked at him from head to toe. "Do you even look at yourself in the mirror? Any woman would run away from you once they see you. Do you even take a bath or even brush your teeth?" She was insulting him. She then widely grinned because she could see the extreme annoyance on the guy’s face. His nose was flaring and his face was flushed in pure anger. The man violently released her face and then slapped her hard. Her cheek hurt but she didn't let them see that she was in pain. Instead, she turned to them again and grinned again. "Oh, why are you mad? Does the truth hurt?" She said mockingly.
• "Can you shut up, woman? Or else I won’t be able to control myself anymore and I could punch you." The guy who slapped her said but she did not listen to him.
• "Why should I keep quiet? I have a mouth so I’ll talk all I want! Do you want to keep me quiet? If you just don't want me to speak, then you should have covered my mouth. God! You are a bunch of idiots, huh?" He sarcastically said which was followed by a burst of sarcastic laughter.
• "Fuck you! You don't want to shut up?" The guy said and raised his hand, his fist clenched.
• Sarah closed her eyes and just waited for his fist to land on her face but even before his fist could land on her face, they already heard a voice making the guy stop in his tracks.
• Sarah’s eyes landed on where the voice was coming from and her eyes widened in shock when she saw the familiar face of the owner of that voice.
• It’s Demetri. Her first boyfriend and also her first ex-boyfriend.
• "That's enough. I'll take care of that woman." Demetri said.
• The five men nodded and left. When the men finally got out of the room, Demetri then looked at her with an expressionless face.
• Sarah looked at Demetri confusingly but Demetri just stared at her blankly. "Demetri? Is it you? Did you plan all of this? B-but why...Why are you doing this? What are you planning? Because as far as I know, I haven't done anything wrong to you!" She said,
• Demetri’s blank look was suddenly replaced by sharp looks. "You did not do anything wrong? Oh come on Sarah, I can’t believe you forgot everything that easily." Demetri said.
• It took her a minute of thinking of what she did wrong before she finally remembered what it was.
• She scoffed then shook her head in disbelief.
• "Don't tell me, this is still all about what happened in the past. Geez, Demetri. It’s been five years and you still haven’t been able to move on?" She told him and rolled her eyes.
• Demetri Andreadis. A half-Filipino and half-greek and she doesn't know what goes into his mind that he even asked men to kidnap her.
• "You still haven’t changed, Sarah. And don't just assume things. Who do you think you are that I can't move on from you? In case you forgot, Sarah, I am Demetri Andreadis. Women flock to me so if you think that I haven't moved on from you yet, well I am telling you now, you are wrong." Demetri said.
• She suddenly felt embarrassed by what she said. Why did she say that? She already knew that Demetri didn't love her so there was no reason for him to move on from her.
• "Then just tell me what you want so that I can go. God! You should have just talked to me casually. You didn’t have to do this! And those minions of yours, they were trying to hit me!"
• She cursed. She should be in Greece right now and resting but here she is now, sitting and tied up. It’s like she’s really out of luck.
• "Well, I'm sorry to inform you baby but you're not going anywhere. Not to Greece or any part of this world."
• Sarah almost dropped her jaw after hearing what Demetri said.
• What the hell? Don't tell me he's gonna keep me here and he has no plans to send me home.
• "What are you saying? Look, Demetri, I don't have time for things like this because there are many more important things I have to take care of."
• "Things to take care of? Like what? Like running away from everyone? Escaping from what happened?"
• Demetri’s sarcastic remarks made her jaws tense. "You don't know anything so shut the hell up!" She said it emphatically.
• "Oh, I know a lot, Sarah. If you want to, I'll even go into more details on what I know." Demetri mockingly said.
• She forced herself to calm down. It would be better for her to talk with Demetri about it properly and maybe he will send him home.
• "Look, Demetri. I don't care what you know and what you think of me now. So please, just tell me what you need from me that you still really need to kidnap me. Because I'm sure it's not money that you need because you have lots of it. I’m sure it’s something that we can talk about, right?" She told him calmly but Demetri just grinned.
• Demetri took a bench and placed it in front of her and sat on it. He brought his face close to hers which caused her to stop breathing for a second.
• She wasn't expecting that he would do that!
• "What if I tell you that it's your body that I need? Can you give me that?" He asked in a very serious tone. And if she hadn't just been tied, she probably would have fallen from her seat.
• Is he serious? Oh, God! Tell me he's just kidding.
• But the way Demetri looked at her, she already knew it wasn't a joke.
• "Stop fooling around, Demetri. I am being serious so answer me properly." She said nervously.
• She was waiting for him to laugh but a few seconds later and his face remained serious causing her heartbeat to go faster.
• "A-are you serious?" She asked while trying to calm herself.
• Damn, Sarah! Stop being nervous! She silently scolded herself but she got only even more nervous when Demetri suddenly caressed her cheek with his hand.
• "I'm serious, Sarah. And oh, you don't need to answer my question because whatever your answer is, it still doesn't matter." Demetri said dangerously. And she felt like she just wanted to die when he continued what he was saying. "And whether you agree or not, I will still claim your body. Because your body is made for me. It is made to please me." He said and without warning, he kissed her harshly.
• Demetri kissed her as if he's telling her that he owns her. It was violent and rough.
• Sarah tried to take her face away but Demetri only imprisoned her cheeks with his palms and she did nothing but let him do as he wanted. She tasted her own blood that's coming from her own lips because of his violent kiss on her. And she couldn't stop her tears from falling.
• She cried silently as he was kissing her, praying that he would stop what he was doing and it seems that God heard her prayer because Demetri stopped kissing her and then stared at her intently.
• "Remember this, Sarah. Starting today, I own you and there's nothing you can do about it. All you have to do is follow everything I want. Get that?" He said before releasing her face.
• "Are you really sure about this?" Demetri’s cousin, Xander asked.
• He couldn't count how many times Xander had asked him that.
• "Xander, how many times do I have to tell you that I wanted to do this?" He patiently told him.
• He heard Xander sigh from the other line. "Can you tell me again the reason why you're doing this?"
• "Because I wanted her to---"
• "Because you wanted her to feel what you felt. You want her to also experience the pain you suffered. You're doing this because you wanted revenge. Why? Because you haven't moved on yet? Is it because you still love her?"
• "No! I don't love her anymore! I have already moved on." He firmly said.
• "If you’re really moved on, then you shouldn't be doing this anymore. You shouldn't care about her anymore. What you should be doing now is making your own family and living quietly but look at what you're doing right now. Demetri! You just kidnapped my best friend’s ex-girlfriend and your ex-girlfriend!" Xander said concern can be heard in his voice. And he didn't know what or for whom he was worried.
• "You don't get it, Xander. Do you want to know the truth? Yes. I haven't moved on yet because I can't get over what she did. Xander, you were there. You knew how much I adored her and how heartbroken I was when she broke my heart. You have no idea how much pain I have been through since she dumped me like I was trash! And now it's her turn to feel what I've felt. I'll let her know how much it hurts to be treated like a rag. Nobody can stop me from exacting my vengeance. Nobody, not even you." He said it firmly and then ended the call without saying goodbye.
• Whatever happens, he will stick to his plan. He'll exact his vengeance, and no one will stand in his way. And this time, he's going to make sure it's her heart that breaks.
