Running, Me =/ [best business books of all time TXT] 📗

just looked around at maybe 15-20 people staring at me, wide eyed. Welp... So much for me being shy and not wanting to be the center of attention.

"Shit boss... I'm sorry... I shouldn't have said so much..." The boy, Joey says looking at the ground.

"Its fine, we'll just be taking a certain someone with us." He looks at me and drags me to a car as the girl who was I'm assuming his sister, Jess starts the car and speeds away.

Chapter five

 Ugh. I'm so bored I'm in the back seat with him in the seat on the left of me. He won't let me be alone. There isn't anything to do except for look around. I look around the car and I look to Jess. Her black hair was in a braid and she was wearing a white shirt with a black leather jacket, and from what I could see, black leather pants. No offense but ew. Leather pants... I'm never wearing them. She looks in the mirror and see me looking at her so I look away and my eyes dart to her brother. He had the same black hair just shorter and messy. But it was a good messy. Perfect messing. He was looking out the window so I couldn't see his face but I could see his toned arms, even through his leather jacket. He's wearing a white shirt also and ripped jeans. Come to think of it everyone there was wearing almost the same thing. Either leather pants, black jeans, or black ripped jeans. Some people just look better in them than others...

'Uhh what?' I ask myself. 'I wasn't thinking anything...' 

"Hey bro, we are five minutes away." She says as he snaps his attention back. 

"Right. Okay." I look at him and almost drool a little. What? Don't judge me... You would too! Hes like the perfect thing ever and hes right by me. He looks at me so I quickly look away and out the window. I look at the dark night sky and study the bright twinkling stars. I can't find the moon until we turn and then it lights up the sky.

"Lets go." He says opening my door. I didn't even realize we were here. He grabs my arm again and now that I'm not completely over come by the fear that Lawrence would get me, I gasp, feeling sparks where he is touchy. Its not like bad sparks that hurt... Its magical... Amazing... Indescribable...

"Are you okay?" He ask awkwardly. I'm still not in the mood to talk so I just nod and give my best fake smile. It was suddle but you could tell he saw it... And could tell it was fake. 

"Come on!" Jess yells at him while giggling. We walk in the door and are greeted by even more people, all saying stuff like "Hey Boss." "Whats up boss?" "Was it successful?" Until one person... I'm guessing his brother by how similar they looked (hes still way better looking) said, "Hey bro! Oh, I see you finally caved and got a little toy." While looking at me.

He actually, in the most unhuman way I have ever heard, growled at his brother.

 

A/n- No they are not werewolves, he just did it. I hope you are enjoying! And for anyone who doesnt know what "A/n" means its author note. =)

Chapter six

Everyone snaps their attention to. Him in shock. So did I but mine was filled with thankfulness too. 

"Go to your rooms everyone!" He yells angrily and yanks me down a set of stairs. He puts me in some cell type thing and says, "I'm the boss. Asher Read. You'll be staying here and won't make a peep!" I look at him and slowly nod. 

"Good! I'll be back tomorrow and the others and I will decide what to do with you!" He starts to leave when he turns back and asks what my name is. After I told him it was Skylar, He says "Okay." and leaves, locking the barred door on the way out. He takes the key with him. Damn. I was hoping he was stupid like my previous captor. Yes I'm grateful but I have to go! I lay down on the bed and think about what had just happened. Asher Read, huh? I recall hearing the name but can't figure out why. Shit. Asher Read. Leader of the wolves. No no no! Now I really have to go! I remember the knife I strapped to my leg and take it out... After doing something I hadnt done in year, which felt amazing to do again and get rid of some of the pain, I wipe some of the blood off the blade and see if I can unlock the lock. Yes! I did it!

I open the cell door quietly and start walking up the stairs. I hear people talking outside the door from the basement to the first floor so I wait until I don't see any light from under the door, other than coming in from the windows. And no talking. I open the door slowly and peak out. No one is there so I run to the door and unlock it. I open it and an alarm goes off so I run for it!

 

A/n- she cut herself,  nothing else. For anyone who doesn't understand why she was so satisfied with it, its because when you cut yourself for those reasons it helps with the pain a bit and she wasnt able to while she was with the cobras

 

Chapter seven

 I dart out the door and after about a minute of running I look back to see a large house full of lights and can hear someone getting closer. Shit. They are still pretty far away from the sound of it but I cant run this fast much longer. I was always a fast runner but one, after being held captive for four years and being fed once or twice a week, and two after all the wounds I have its getting hard. I start to get really dizzy from blood loss but continue running.

I start slowing down a bit after getting almost to the end of a super long concrete drive way. I guess it makes sense though. Super big mansion, super large driveway. My heart is racing as I hear the steps getting closer and closer by the second. I try running faster but the person is practically right behind me. Even closer than I thought apparently because, before I know there is someone tackling me but before I hit the ground they flip me over so they are laying on me and I land really hard on my back.

"AHHRRGGGHH!" I scream out in horrid pain...

 

 

 

Chapter eight

 I'm about to cry when I finally realize who is on top of me... Asher...

"What the hell was that?!" He shouts confused and angry. I just look at him with tears threatening to spill over the edge. "Answer me!!!" 

"I- I'm sorry sir..." I say attempting to get out from under him but he grabs my arms making me unable to move. Damn, he's strong. He presses down harder making me scream again, just quieter. 

"Whats wrong with you?! Why are you calling me sir?! One, call me Asher or boss, and two, you are coming back with me!!" He says sternly yanking me up after him, causing me to flinch from the pain sent down and all through my back and stomach. 

"P- please no..." I beg him as hes bringing me back. "Please!"

"What the hell is your problem! Shut up and come back! We'll talk inside!" It takes about a minute for us to be back in my cell in the basement. He tells me to sit on the bed in there and I obey. "I'll be back after we make a decision since you woke everybody up." He leaves me in the dark basement alone and doesn't come back for over an hour.

He comes back but leaves the lights off. 

"We decided that you know to much and we are going to have to kill you." He says as he gets a gun ready to shoot. I don't say anything but on the inside I'm freaking out! Finally! My stupid ass life is going to be over! He asks if I had any last words and I just said, "Thank you so much Asher!" He tries to look at me but cant see me since I'm completely in the dark.

"What?" He asks and drops the gun. Really?

"I said thank you, dumbass." I respond getting moody since he didn't kill me.

"Did you just call me a "dumbass"?" He asks and starts laughing which kinda freaks me out. "Heh. Okay. Stay there sweetheart. We are gunna have a talk." He says and walks off to turn the lights on. He opens his mouth to say something but immediately shuts it and rushes up to me with wide eyes.

"Take off your shirt right now." He says so quietly it scares me. I go to do as he says when he stops me by grabbing my
