Present day
Being kidnapped sucks.
Being kidnapped with your bladder full sucks significantly more.
“I need to pee,” I mumble.
The jackass across from me looks up from his phone and sends me a
sinister smile. It doesn’t actually have the impact he aimed for because it
instantly transforms into a pained grimace. He presses his meaty palm to his
chin, patting the big red bruise spreading across his ugly mug.
“No,” he barks and goes back to fidgeting with his device, dismissing
me completely. It looks like he’s still stewing over me hitting him with my
backpack.
The low rumble of the plane’s engines competes with the sounds of a
football game coming from his phone’s speaker. I clasp my hands together
to keep them from shaking. Slipping into hysteria would accomplish
absolutely nothing, and will likely make my chances of escape even
slimmer. I need to stay calm. Or, as calm as possible, considering my
current situation.
Easier said than done.
My eyes glide over the swanky interior of the aircraft. On either side of
the central aisle, four large recliner seats dominate the space. Toward the
front of the cabin, two cushiony sofas face each other. The interior is all
pristine beige leather and rich wooden accents. I’ve been in private planes
several times, but this one is another level of extravagance.
As far as conditions for being held against your will go, these could be
much worse, but nice surroundings don’t abate my growing panic. Jackass
number two is sprawled on the sofa on the left-hand side, watching—of all
things—a travel infomercial on the big-screen TV mounted to the bulkhead.
My heart continues its staccato beat inside my ribcage, just like it did
when these two pricks snatched me off the street and stuffed me into their
van. The bastards never told me why they targeted me or where they were
taking me. We drove for some time to arrive at a small private airport
outside Chicago. The plane was already waiting on the tarmac when we
pulled up.
How long have we been flying? An hour? Two? Ten? I’m not sure
because they put some acid-smelling rag over my mouth and nose the
moment we stepped foot inside this plane. I guess I shouldn’t have kneed
the infomercial-loving lunkhead in the balls on my way up the airstairs.
Can’t say he liked it.
I turn back to the scumbag sitting across from me. He’s still pretending
to be engrossed in the game playing on his phone, but he’s been stealing
glances at me when he thought I wasn’t looking. Fucking creep.
“Listen, if you don’t take me to the bathroom, I’ll just pee right here.” I
widen my legs as much as my bound ankles allow. “Not sure the fancy
leather will fare well, though.”
“Christ!” He leaps from his seat and grabs my arm, pulling me up to
stand. “Hank, I’m taking the nutcase to the restroom.”
“Keep your eyes on her hands this time or you’ll end up sporting
another bruise,” Hank groans from the sofa, moving his hand to shift his
dick as if worried he lost it.
