Chapter 60
Chapter 60 Blindfolded, I was completely surrounded by darkness. I felt like I had fallen into an endless abyss, unable to escape no matter how hard I struggled. • If I’d thought Roman was terrifying…I was learning there was someone even more terrifying than him. Nervous sweat drenched my body, and I couldn’t keep my legs from trembling. Tied, blindfolded… I was helpless.
The only thing I could do now was try to calm down, to figure out what to say for him to let me go. “Sir.” My voice was just as shaky as I felt. “Wh-What are you doing?” The man did not answer. Instead, he picked me up. I yelped as I was lifted and then was thrown onto the soft hotel bed. I was positive he was going to ra pe me, but he didn’t touch Chapter 60 2/3 me. Instead, I felt the bed shift as he sat down beside me. My dagger. It was beneath the pillows. If I could get just a little bit closer, I could use it to cut the ropes off my wrists. Wiggling around under the pretense of getting away from him, I managed to push my body closer to where the dagger was. But just as my hands were about to touch the pillows, the man suddenly
pressed down on top of me. Then his rough voice was in my ear, so close I could feel the warmth of his breath. “You asked Roman to come to this hotel, and you drugged the wine. What were you planning?” I froze. Why was he asking about something that had nothing to do with him? Could Roman have seen through my plan and sent this man to sniff out my true intentions? No, that was impossible. This wasn’t Roman’s style. If he had known I wanted to k ill him, he would have sent someone to chop me up and feed me to his hogs. “It’s…it’s just a kind of drug to get someone excited. Like an aphrodisiac.” I pretended to be calm and spoke quietly.
