Shelter Me(88)

By:Kathy Coopmans


I stand there for a few more minutes trying to listen for any kind of noise coming from the other side when all of a sudden the lights go on in the room. My eyes try to adjust to the light. I look around and see I am in a room you would not typically see when you are being kidnapped; it is someone’s bedroom. I walk around and by looking at pictures and seeing men’s clothing I assume it is Ben’s.

When I take a seat on the bed, I notice a room off to the side. I pray to God it is a bathroom because all of a sudden I have the need to vomit as I sit here and worry about what is going to happen to me and my baby. Making my way there, I find that it is indeed a bathroom, and it is an absolute mess. I lean over the sink and vomit everything I have inside of me. When I finish, the panic really starts to set in. I slide my body onto the dirty floor and pull my knees up to my chest and cry.

When Ben walks in, he grabs me by my hair and yanks me up onto my feet as my body continues to be wracked by my uncontrollable sobs. I try to hold in my screams but I can’t because it hurts so badly. Ben tosses me onto the bed and towers over me with the gun pointing at my midsection.

“You don’t want to do this, Ben,” I plead through my sobs.

“How the fuck do you know what I want to do? But since we’re talking about it, let me tell you what I am going to do since you have made my plans so much easier for me by coming back to town.”

He is looking at me with so much anger in his eyes that it scares me to even look at him.

“Get up now, we’re leaving here. I wasn’t planning on seeing you tonight, but when you walked into the bathroom by yourself it made it so easy to grab you. Now I have everything I need to make the Schavones pay for what they have done to my family. Now get the fuck up so we can leave.”

“Fuck you!” I scream at him.

Dropping the gun on the floor and climbing on top of me, he grabs my face and brings it to within inches of his.

“You are definitely a beautiful woman, Shayne. I would love to fuck you and show you what it feels like to be fucked by a real man, but I wouldn’t touch you if you were the last bitch on this earth. You reek of Schavone, and the sight of you makes me sick. So no, I am not going to fuck you, but what I am going to do is fuck you up so bad that the sight of you is going to make Vincent Schavone and his sons rot in hell just like my father is for the rest of their lives. Now if you don’t get your ass up, I am going to drag you out of here.”

“I need something to eat before we go. We were about to have dinner and I am starving after throwing up earlier. Please?” I ask as my voice starts to shake, knowing I have to stall as much as I can.

“I have food packed for us in the car,” he says as he climbs off of me and retrieves the gun. He lifts it and points it directly at my head, leaving me no choice but to stand and walk out the door with him.

It’s dark outside as we make our way to where his vehicle is idling in the driveway. Approaching the car, I see a man in the driver’s seat but it is too dark to recognize him. Ben opens the back door and I climb in and start to move over to the other side of the seat. I turn to watch Ben get in behind me. He doesn’t let me get very far before he grabs me by my hair and pulls me against him. He shuts the door and without a word we start driving.

Keeping his hold on my hair, he pulls my head back and leans his face into mine.

“Even though you smell like him you fucking bitch, you will not leave my sight. If I know Schavone like I think I do, he will come looking for you. You had better pray like there ain’t no tomorrow, girl.”

I am so damn scared but I will not let this piece of shit know it. I will fight with everything I have to get back to my family.

“One more thing, sweetheart,” he says as he licks up the side of my neck. I feel his hot breath blowing in my ear. “I may just take you up on that ‘fuck you’ from earlier…in fact, I may just do it right in front of your man.”

I jerk myself away from him. Oh my God, I’m going to be sick. Ben leans back into his seat and chuckles as we drive to God knows where.

I must have passed out for a little while because I am jolted awake as the vehicle comes to a complete stop.

“Get out,” Ben growls.

The door on my side of the vehicle is pulled open and I try not to gasp as I look up into the eyes of the biggest man I ever seen. Slowly I step down to the ground, and he pushes me toward the small cabin sitting directly in front of us.

Ben opens the front door and shoves me inside, causing me to fall. When I try to get up, he grabs my feet and starts to drag me across the floor. I don’t know how much more of this I can take. All I want to do is go home and hold my baby and to tell both her and Luke how much I love them. Ben drops my feet and then picks me up and throws me onto the couch. Pulling his gun out, he points it directly at me and tosses me a phone.
