SCARLET
Warmth.
Light.
Voices.
One particular voice. Smooth as velvet and with a deep timbre.
“You’re safe, baby. I got you.”
He murmurs those words over and over. My mind must be playing
tricks on me again. I’ve been hallucinating for days. Dreaming that
someone would come rescue me. Praying for death before he came back to
hurt me.
Soft strokes on my forehead make me stir. I want to open my eyes so
badly but I’m so tired. My limbs feel heavy, and my head is throbbing.
“I got you, Little one. Daddy’s got you.”
A whimper escapes. Suddenly, something is being gently pushed against
my lips.
“It’s a syringe of water, baby. Open your mouth for me,” the voice
commands.
I can’t obey, even though I want to. I can’t move. Slowly, it’s pushed
into my mouth and a trickle of cold fluid drips against my tongue.
“That’s it, baby. Swallow. It’s just water.”
This time, I follow instructions and let the liquid slide down my sore
throat. After a few minutes, the syringe is pulled from my mouth, and I lick
my lips for the first time in I don’t know how long.
“Good girl, Scarlet. Can you open your eyes, baby?”
It takes several tries before I can pry my lids open but when I do, I’m
looking up at the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen in my life. He’s staring
down at me, his emerald eyes pained.
Panic surges through me as I realize I’m in a car and there are several
other imposing-looking men in here with us. Oh, God. It’s time. Ivan’s men
are taking me somewhere to kill me or sell me.
With every ounce of energy I can muster, I start thrashing, but the man
holding me is too powerful. He grabs my wrists with one hand and pulls
them to his chest.
“Shh. You’re safe, Scarlet. You’re safe. Your sister sent us to save you.”
I freeze, my eyes widening. “C-Cali?”
He nods. “Yes. She’s with my brother right now. We’re on our way to
see her. You’re safe. I won’t let anyone else hurt you.”
As I stare up at this man, tears burn my eyes. He seems so big it’s unreal
and he’s cradling me in his arms like a baby. The warmth of him soothes
me. My sister sent him? Who is he?
“Take some more water.” He holds a large plastic syringe up to my lips.
I open my mouth, and he slowly lets it drip on my tongue. With each
swallow, I feel like I can breathe a little easier.
“Good girl. You’re doing so well. We’re almost there, baby.”
His words calm me, and the way he calls me baby makes butterflies
flutter in my belly. No one’s ever called me baby like he does. Who is he?
“W-who a-are—” I start to cough, the dryness of my throat cutting off
my words.
He brings another syringe to my lips. “Shh. Drink. I’m Killian
Lachlan.”
