Chapter Four
Marcia opened her eyes to find herself in Liam's arms as he slept. Marcia carefully got out of his embrace to not wake him, she sat at the edge of the bed as she looked back at Liam who slept peacefully.
The sudden knock on the door startled her. She found herself getting upset, she was sure Liam had told the men not to bother her until she left her room.
She sighed to herself to try to calm herself down before getting up and opening the door.
The man standing in front of her eyes widen as his mouth fell wide open as soon as he saw that she was completely naked. His eyes slowly traveled down her body, Marcia snapped her fingers in front of his face to get his attention.
"Keep your eyes up here." She said as she pointed to her eyes. The man swallowed back as he quickly nodded his head.
"I-I was sent to tell you about your package, Miss. Alcott. It had tried to run away earlier today and -" Marcia quickly cut the guy off short as soon as she heard that.
"Was he hurt?!" She questioned him as her eyes filled up with anger. If anyone tried to hurt her package she would have someone killed.
"I-I-" Marcia closed the door on his face. He was taking too long to answer her. She ran to get her clothes from the floor to quickly change into them as she heard Liam get up from the bed.
"Marcia?" He spoke, Marcia continued to change, she grabbed her gun from the floor and made sure it was loaded before tucking it into her black leg strap.
"Marcia?" She looked at Liam once she was done changing. "Where are you going?" He asked her. She eyed his naked body before answering him.
"To check on him, I can't have something useful to me being hurt." She answered him.
Liam just stood there as she left through the door. She made her way down the hall, she knew that someone was going to get hurt if they laid a hand on him. This package was important to her, it meant everything to her.
As she made her way down to the basement, the two large men blocking the door way moved to the side to let her in.
She entered the door of one of the two rooms in the basement. As her eyes landed on the man sitting in front of the metal table, she quickly noticed his hand was wrapped up in a white bandage.
The man slowly looked up from the table to see her standing just a few feet away from him.
"Damon." She whispered as his hazel eyes landed on her. He looked sad and he looked to be in pain. His beautiful brown hair was completely wet and his face was pale, most likely from the pain.
"Water." She heard him whisper to her. Her eyes widen in anger, she turned around and angrily opened the door, causing it to loudly slam against the wall beside it.
"Where is he!?" She shouted at the two guards standing beside the door. "I'll go fetch him, Miss." One of them answered her before running up the stairs to get the man that she was looking for.
"Who did this to you?" Marcia asked Damon who just kept looking at her without saying a word. The pain in his eyes made her upset, the last thing she wanted was to hurt this man.
She never once wanted to see the man who saved her from herself be in pain. This man meant everything to her, he was the only one who was truly there for her when she needed someone at her side.
Without him, who knows where she would of ended up in those 4 years that she was lost.
She turned around as she heard the door open. Her eyes landed on the man that she was looking for. "Miss. Alcott." He greeted her like he hadn't done anything wrong.
Marcia could tell that this man hated her from the look in his eyes. He was one of her fathers best man, but she knew not to trust him, she knew not to trust anyone.
"Miguel," his name left her lips in a low hiss. "I ordered you to not hurt him." Miguel raised an eyebrow at her as a smirk showed on his lips.
"He tried to run away, we punish the ones who run-" his eyes widen as he felt a head of a gun being pressed into the skin on the back of his head.
"Miss. Alcott, ordered you specifically to not hurt her package. She ordered you to treat the package carefully and to make sure it was given food." Before Miguel was able to answer, the back of Liam's gun hit the back of Miguel's head.
He fell to the floor, passed out from the blow to his head. Marcia stood there and watched as the two guards came in and started to carry Miguel's body away.
"Put him in the other room, I'll handle him once everything is done here." Liam ordered. The guards nod as they carry away Miguel's body.
Liam stands beside Marcia as he faces the same way that her back is facing. "So this is the package you were so worried about?" He ask.
Marcia turns to him to see him with his eyes on Damon. "Go get me a glass of water and some food." Liam looks at her with a raised eyebrow.
"Excuse me?" He answers.
"Don't make me repeat myself." His eyes become cold, he takes one last look at Damon before leaving to go get what he was asked for.
The door closes and Marcia stays behind in the room with Damon alone. He slowly pulls his head back up to look her in the eyes.
"I've missed you so much." She whispers out to him. Damon closes his eyes as he takes a deep breath and slowly let's his head fall back.
He licks his lips before answering her. "Please let me go." He whispers out.
Marcia's eyes become hard, "I can't, I can't let you go." She answers him.
The seconds pass by like minutes until Liam returns with the food and a glass of water. He sets it down in front of Damon who gives him a thankful look.
Liam ignores its. He then suddenly grabs Damon by the jaw, he roughly turns Damons face side to side as he inspects him.
"What's so important about him?" Liam let's go of Damon, and turns to Marcia.
She watches as Damon tries to reach out for the glass of water, his hand flinches away in pain. Marcia walks to the side of the table that Damon is on, she grabs the glass of water and puts it up against his lips.
She watches as Damon drinks up the whole glass, she can feel Liam's eyes on her every movement. She sets the glass back down on the table.
"Everything." She answers Liam's question which causes him to scoff at her answer.
"What is he? Some kind of go-" Liam shuts his mouth once Marcia gives him a look that says, shut it.
"He needs a bath," Marcia says as she puts the back of her hand against Damon's check. He closes his eyes and leans into her touch.
Liam watches it and he doesn't hide the jealousy roaming in his eyes. "Show him to my room, and make sure to give him a set of new clothes." With that being said, Marcia pulls her hand away.
She turns and leaves the room in which Damon, and Liam are in. She makes her way up the stairs of the basement.
She felt she had let herself go for a second back there. She lets herself be vulnerable for a second and she knows that Liam noticed it.
Marcia poured herself a glass of scotch, she felt herself relax as the burning sensation of the liquid went down her throat.
"What's going on with me?" She whispers to herself.
She set the empty glass down on the bar, as she turns around she's met with those dark blue eyes again. Christian roughly grabs her by the wrist of her hand, he pulls it up, his face only a mere inch from touching hers.
"What are you doing?" He questions her in a deep low voice. Marcia feels her body tense up as the grip around her wrist gets tighter.
"Answer me." He whispers. Marcia pulls her hand out of his grip, she takes a step back only to have her lower back hit the end of the bar.
"Don't touch me." She says as she masters up all her courage to answer the tall man standing in front of her.
Christian tilts his head to the side as a smirk appears on his lips. "Do you take me as a fool?" he says. "I know you're sleeping with your own men." Her eyes widen as she hears that.
She knew that there was no way for him to know about Liam and her sleeping together. Unless someone went and told Christian about it.
"I am not sleeping with my men." Marcia turns around to pour herself more scotch. Her hands tremble as she pours the liquid into the glass.
She hears Christian start to laugh behind her. "I paid a good price for you, I expected you to at least still be pure."
She couldn't stop herself as her hand quickly reached for the gun in her leg strap. She quickly turns around to aim at Christian, but she, herself was also met with a gun pointed directly at her.
