She doesn't know where to go. How can she end up here in this wedding dress at night? She does not know. Why this is happening to her. How can she marry that man? She did not have any way to run away. Most of all how can her uncle betray her like that. They were supposed to protect her. How can they change overnight? In the last few years, many things changed. She lost so much but still, there was hope. But today in these strange woods she has lost every ounce of courage she had in her. Her feet hurt from the constant running for two hours and not even once she has found a glimpse of any road that will take her out of these woods. The men who followed her are long gone or maybe they are lost too. Her chest hurt badly from the constant running. Without trees, she has seen nothing from the moment she has kept her foot in here. Tired she slipped down her back on a tree and sat on the ground. What if I do not survive. What will be the benefit of running away from him? But it is better to die or being eating eaten by a wild animal than to marry him. A sudden fury started hitting her body when she remembered his face. Fucker she cursed loudly. She closed her eyes to calm herself down. Weird voices from the wild started creeping her. She did not have it in her anymore to walk. It is better to sit for some time and then look for the way out if she is alive till morning. She pulled herself together and due to exhaustion in a few minutes she passed out on the ground.
A group of Five people with small lights in their hands suddenly stopped on the way. One of them stopped walking and signals everyone to hear. Everyone heard it. The deep breathing sound coming from ahead. With very small steps they all started following the sound. One of them in front ahead could see her clothes. With one big jump, he has her neck in his hands. To his surprise, the girl was already passed out or maybe dead. He thought to himself. He looked at her condition. Deep cuts all over the body and clothes torn from all the places. Maybe she was already under attack. He checked her breathing through nostrils and looked at his men. Inform him that we have found her. He gave orders He opened the piece of rope from his arm and tied her hands tightly. To his surprise, she was still passed out. Easy and weak .....He thought and threw her on her shoulder.
Her body hurts in so many places that she does not know where to focus first. How many hours she has slept? Why is it still dark? A sudden rotten smell hit her. it was too dark to make out anything. She tried moving her hands but the heaviness on her wrist surprised her. Reality dawned upon her. Her hands were chained. Her Brain started running again her pupil dilated as she sense that she is not in the woods anymore. Frantically she started making sense of her surroundings. It was a closed room and she is on the floor and her hands are tied with a chain. Panic started hitting her again. How can she be caught? She has left them far behind. Waves of fear made her shiver as the thought of him marrying her again crossed her mind. A sob escaped her mouth and she started pulling her hands out of the chains. She could hear the loud footsteps approaching her as she struggled more with chains to open herself. The gate flew open in the next minute and the flashlight fell on her struggling body.
Shut the fuck up and stop struggling before I slit your neck.
Her body freezes upon hearing the strange voice. It was not him. With difficulty, she moved her neck up to see a middle-aged man staring down at her with disgust. He moved a bit closer and the rotten smell filled her nostrils. The smell was coming from him. Her looks roam at his face and then at clothes that were covered with bloodstains. She has not seen him before.
Keep your fucking eyes down. He pulled her to her feet by the neck.
Let me go fucker she sneered back.
I don't know why they have kept you alive but trust me as soon I hear a single word from your mouth I will snap your neck. She was thrown back to the floor and he turned to leave. Rage filled her body. She hates everything that was happening. She would rather die than deal with shit she was trying to get away from. Tears streamed down her face as the thought of dying in the alien place hit her. Nobody will find her body. Nobody will know that bastard has gotten her killed.
Rotten bastard, she cursed loudly this time. Her voice filled with disgust as she pulled her body up and stood up. The man who was leaving suddenly turned back and in a few strides reached her again. As soon as his hands hit her cheek she again hit the ground. Her head started throbbing with a force she has been hit with. Blood fell from her mouth as he kicked again in her stomach. He chuckled when she started coughing with more blood on the floor. His hands suddenly pulled her dress down from her shoulder. Unlucky bitch She heard him. She was not shocked when he pushed her more down the floor and started tearing her already torn dress. Wedding dress She laughed loudly at the thought. Maybe she should have killed herself with the knife rather than attacking him. She wished she was not in a rotten place with a strange man trying to force himself on her. Her head gives up. Tiredly she stopped struggling. She does not want to be here. She wanted to be somewhere else. so like every time she chooses him to escape
Maybe you should leave. He told her again
She should but she can't.
His soft lips fell on her and she drifted again.
Sometimes memories are the only safe place we can be at.
