Chapter 29

*Isabella Murray*

Have you ever felt like a building wall had crushed into you? It hurts every part of your body and the last thing you wanna do is wake up and face the pain.

I tried several times already to open my eyes but I felt like something was pulling it down. Everything seemed so heavy and I couldn't seem to move my body. 'Come on, Bella! Just open your eyes! Come one, you can do it!'

I tried once again slowly opening the lids of my eyes. The bright light burned my eyes as I hiss in pain. When my vision turned clear and normal, I studied my surroundings.

The walls were painted white but it was dirty and there were cracks on it. The light I once thought was bright was actually fading like it was running out. And there were no windows at all. I looked around me until I found a person right in front of me.

My breath hitched in my throat seeing him again. I wanna call him, hug him, get to him, but unfortunately I was tied on a chair and my mouth was covered by a handkerchief. I did the only thing that I could think of to wake him up. I grunted loudly and words muffled in my mouth as I try to talk.

Tristan stirred a little and I knew it was going to work, so I grunted louder. He seemed to be waking up since he was actually trying to open his eyes and he was groaning. When he was awake, he shook his head and he glanced at me then back to the floor.

But then, he froze and lifted his head slowly. His eyes widened when he saw me. I guess he didn't know that I was here. "You're awake." He announced like it wasn't the most obvious thing in the world. But I still nodded my head.

"Are you feeling like you've been run over a truck?" He asked and I nodded my head again since I couldn't answer him with the handkerchief on my mouth. "Don't worry, I'll try my best to get us out of here."

Suddenly, the door bursted open revealing a tall man. It was the same guy who threatened me at the park, who kidnapped me, and who was the leader of the gang. A.K.A. Calvin Domingo.

"How you doing my princess?" He smirked at me earning him a glare from me.

"Calvin, let her go. She has nothing to do with this." Tristan told him off but Calvin just laughed at him.

"You're real funny, Trist, never change." He sighed stopping himself from laughing.

"Just let her go!" Tristan said through gritted teeth.

"Let me think about that," Calvin said pretending to look like he was thinking hard. "No!" He declared letting out a chuckle. "You should really thank me for this. If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have seen your sister."

"You're a criminal!" Tristan said dangerously.

"Oh shut it!" Calvin ordered. I could tell that he was annoyed since his eyebrows were now furrowed like he was angry. "You know I didn't like what you did. It's your own fault you're here." He told me walking towards me. I shot him a death glare and we had a staring/glaring contest until his phone rang.

He looked at it first before answering the phone. "Boss!" He chirped as a smile made it's way to his face.

"Yeah, everything's fine." He informed his 'boss.'

Pause

"I got the girl."

Pause

"Don't worry, boss. Won't hurt her." He said shooting me an evil smirk. Then he hang up the phone and put it back in his pocket. "Dave!" He yelled as another guy came in the room.

"Sir?"

"Watch them. I'll be gone for a while and you know how I don't like funny business." He said glaring at me when he said 'funny business.'

"Yes sir." Dave answered as Calvin made his way out.

"Good." He said as he shut the door close.

Tristan and I were staring at Dave. I didn't know why but I felt like he wasn't a bad guy. When he noticed the states we were giving him, he looked at us and sighed. I knew he was having second thoughts towards something, I just can't point my finger on it.

He slowly walked towards me and untied the knot of the handkerchief in my mouth. "Don't tell Calvin I did this." He said as he took the handkerchief with him.

"Look, I'm sorry." He apologized looking at both of us. "I never really wanted to be a part of this, but I have to. You know this." He explained looking at Tristan.

"My family's lives are in risk and I would do anything to save them. Bella, I know you understand." He said as his eyes hold guilt in them. I nodded my head in response.

"Why is he doing this?" My brother suddenly asked. "I thought he let me off the hook. I wasn't even part of his stupid gang, so I don't know why he's doing this to me. Especially to my sister who has nothing to do with this whole situation."

"It's not Calvin's work. It's our boss's."

"Who's your boss?" I asked curiosity getting in my way.

"The King." He said bluntly with a small shrug like it was no big deal. Tristan and I were completely astounded by his announcement. The King?! Now it all made sense!

"The King? As in the King of England? Rosalie's father?!" I asked continually.

"Yes, yes, and yes." He answered.

"How could he do that?!" I practically screamed.

"Well, he doesn't want Tristan to be with his daughter and when he found out that Tristan was planning to go and get Rosalie back, he hired me and Calvin to kidnapped him until Logan and Rosalie are married." He explained.

"So why did he kidnapped me?" I asked becoming bewilder with the whole situation.

"Because he saw you in the police station. He tracks you down, you know. Every single one of you and your friends. One wrong move and you all get it."

"He can't hurt Rosalie though. If his boss is the King, I'm sure he won't have the guts to even lay a finger on her." Tristan argued.

But he can lay a finger on you, on Bella, on Logan, to everyone that is close to her. Especially you. We both know that he hates you more than anything in this world." He stated.

"So what's his plan?" Tristan asked him. I really do hope he tells us. Dave contemplated on either telling us or not but when he made up his mind, he let out a sigh and began.
