T. T. P.
Ribbons of blood slowly rolled up my arms toward my elbows. My
pillows were stained with dark red dots and down by the foot of the bed,
beneath my ankles, were large copper blotches that had seeped into my
gray comforter. The tan ropes tied around each of my wrists and ankles
looked as if they had been dipped in red wine.
Twist. Twist. Pull.
I’d repeated that process over and over again—rubbing away my skin
against the splintering rope as I did.
How long had it been since Mr. X had tied me to my bed and left me?
He had brought me in here when it had still been dark outside. The sun was
up now. It had been up for a while.
Twist. Twist. Pull.
My eyes were glued to my open bedroom door, feeling as though Mr. X
would appear at any moment. I tried not to let my eyes drift to the tips of
Shayla’s white sneakers. He had slit her throat just outside my bedroom.
Her body was still where she’d fallen. She was dead. There was no denying
it now. I had tried to get help—tried to escape. But every window and every
door I’d tried had been nailed shut. The only one I hadn’t tried was the
front door. Mr. X had caught me before I could.
I had a feeling that was the only way out.
Twist. Twist. Pull.
Strangely, the pain of my nerves rubbing against the rope had numbed.
Was it my need to escape—my adrenaline blocking out the one thing that
could slow me down?
Twist. Twist. Pull.
I had no idea when Mr. X would come back. I wouldn’t let myself think
about what he would do to me when he did.
Twist. Twist. Pull.
I had to get out of here.
Twist. Twist. Pull.
The rope around my right wrist slid up around my hand. I held my
breath as I pulled on it again and the rope squeezed over the rest of my
hand, passed over my fingers, and I was free. A new surge of hope rushed
through me.
“Oh, Shiii…loooh!” Mr. X sang, his voice echoing from down the hall.
The sound of shoes slapping against the ground pulled me up to just
beneath the surface of consciousness.
“Shi!”
“Shiloh!”
Voices called out to me.
I knew those voices.
Faintly, I could feel hands on me, rolling me over onto my back. I
desperately tried to open my eyes. I thought I might’ve. Or it could’ve all
been a dream. Very good dream. One of Knox kneeling beside me and Colt,
Creed, and Keelan standing behind him. All of them were looking over me
worriedly.
Knox’s hands cupped my cheeks. “Shiloh?”
