Kidnapped By Rogue
Chapter 28

"I'm starved, why don't we let the girls cook and socialize as we watch the game that's on?" the frizzy haired guy suggested. Riz and Ace both grunted in agreement before getting up and walking into the living room followed by every other guy. River was the last to leave as he slowly drank the rest of his drink then staggered out the room. Sarah spoke up and broke the silence. "Hi, I'm Sarah," she introduced with a smile. The girl with blonde hair smiled back.

"I'm Sadie," she said, "and this is Tinleigh, she doesn't talk much." The girl, Tinleigh, looked very young, too young to be in this mess. She had big brown eyes and looked like she belonged in a magazine.

Kenzie introduced herself and then I did, too. After the familiarizing, we talked a little about how we got here and all that stuff all while making steak and baked potatoes.

I found out that Sadie had been here for a long time, and she was now eighteen like Kenzie, Sarah and me. The guy that took her, the one with black frizzy hair, was named Brydon and he was twenty-three.

Tinleigh just turned eighteen about three months ago and had been with Airion for a little over nine months. She was almost half Airion's age, making him twenty-eight. He was a little taller than Rouge, but not as tall as River and had poofed brown hair that complemented his eyes. Faded tattoos were coated onto his muscled, dark skin and made him look even more intimidating.

When dinner was done, Kenzie went to get the guys while the rest of us set the table. Somehow, the subject of love came into the conversation.

"What?" I yelled in a hushed way. Sadie looked at me like I'd grown three heads.

"I said I love him. He treats me amazingly and hasn't laid a hand on me in like forever," she retaliated as if it was obvious. "I wouldn't go home even if I had the chance." Now it was me who looked at her with a crazed look on my face. "You're insane! He kidnapped you, he took you from your family!" I said frustrated. Sarah and Tinleigh stayed quiet as we conversed.

"That was two years ago. Yeah, I would love to see my family, but I wouldn't leave Brydon. He's taken care of me and never tied me up or locked me in a basement, it could have been worse," I was completely dumbfounded.

"Oh yeah I forgot that rape and punishment isn't in the category of 'worse. My bad," I said sarcastically. She slowly shook her head and was about to reply when everyone walked through the door. I watched as Brydon came to her and captured her lips with his own. I rolled my eyes and looked away from their 'intimate' moment.

Tinleigh walked over and sat on Airion's thigh while he played with the strings of her shorts. Her face was blank as she stared at nothing in particular.

"What are you thinking about?" I heard Rouge whisper into my ear as he stood behind me. I tensed up as he ran his finger up my arm, stopping at my shoulder to push my hair to one side.

"Politics," I responded sarcastically. He chuckled deeply, fanning my skin with his breath causing me to shudder. I felt the presence of his hand on my waist as he pulled me into him. I felt everyone's gaze on us and wanted him to go away.. "What do you want?" I questioned with a sigh, relaxing just a bit.

"Do I have to want something in order to touch my hostage?" he asked in fake awe as he played with the hem of my shirt. I moved his hands and turned to face him.

"You can't call me a hostage if you're not letting me go," I pointed out and watched as his lip twitched into a smirk. He nodded and leaned down to be face to face with me. The smell of peppermints invaded my nose when I inhaled sharply at the closeness. "I can call you whatever I want because I own you now," he slurred menacingly and I fought the urge to roll my eyes and slap him.
