Page 45 of Bowser (Dragon Riders MC 2)
Does Bowser see me that way?
I laid down on the motel bed and sighed. I stared at the ceiling, waiting patiently for Ash to come back with food. My stomach turned over on itself, the room slowly shifting around me. I got up and walked over to the bathroom sink, resolving myself to a stomach full of water.
Anything to get my mind off the fact that I was practically starving.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
“Thank fuck,” I whispered.
Knock! Knock!
I walked toward the door. “Coming, Ash! Wow, that was fast. Did you just go and get it your—”
The second I opened the door, I regretted every move I’d ever made for the past year and a half. I regretted every decision, every drink, every trick, and every spoiled rotten moment. My heart plummeted to my knees as my mouth went dry. And as I stared up into the eyes of Satan Himself, I watched Skeleton’s grin spread across his cheeks.
“Afternoon, sweet cheeks.”
I pried my tongue from the roof of my mouth. “I—you, uh—where’s…?”
He leaned against the doorway. “You mean, Ash?”
My gut hardened. “What did you do with him?”
“Nothing. You have my word.”
“Your word doesn’t mean shit.”
“Then, I suppose we’re even in that regard.”
The second he reached for me, I stumbled backwards. I tried to put as many things between us as possible. I topped the television over. I pulled the dresser away from the wall and shoved it at him. I even backed myself into the bathroom, hoping and praying there was something in there I could use as a weapon. The shower rod, the toilet top, or the back of the damn toilet reservoir.
“Come here, you stupid bitch,” he growled.
“Ash! Ash, he’s here!” I roared.
Skeleton’s lean ass was much too limber. He dodged everything I threw in his path and caught my wrists before I got the bathroom door closed. I kicked and screamed. I called out for help. Skeleton wrapped me in his arms and clamped his hand over my mouth, muffling my noises. Tears rushed my eyes. I kicked my legs in the air as he tightened my arms around my back. I did everything I could to get out of that man’s grasp. To get away from him once and for all.
But when I saw two more of his men come into the room, I knew I was done for.
“Get her legs and get her in the car,” he commanded.
I shrieked against his palm as those two assholes of his grabbed my ankles. They carried me out of the motel room as I bucked like a wild bull, trying to do anything I could to get away from them. Tears flooded my face. They walked me over to a van and tossed me inside. And when two other men caught me, they tied my hands and legs together.
Before wrapping a bandana around my head and stuffing my mouth full of the disgusting material.
“Ash!” I cried out.
The guys chuckled as Skeleton licked his lips at me.
“Ash!” I shrieked.
He crooked his finger beneath my chin. “Want to know a secret?”
I wrenched my head away from him, and he didn’t like that. Because the next thing I knew, his knuckles cracked against my cheekbone, causing me to whimper.
“Bowser,” I choked out.
Skeleton’s lips pressed against my ear. “One of your Red Pythons really likes the dick of our Golden Jags.”
I slowly looked up at him as my sadness and fear turned to anger.
“That’s right, sweet cheeks. She ratted out the whole fucking plan. And this time? All of your men are going to pay.”
I shook my head before he caught my cheeks against his fingertips.
“Every single one of them will be slaughtered. Link. Sly. Hell, Ash is driving into a trap as we speak.”
“You’re a monster,” I spat.
He smiled viciously. “But I’ve got special plans for that Bowser of yours.”
I lunged at him. “Don’t you touch him!”
I fell to the ground of the van and felt a boot against my head. Causing me to cry out in pain before Skeleton’s voice filled the back of the musty vehicle.
“New plan, boys. We keep the Pythons and this slimy little snake here. I’ve got plans to make us rich, so we have no more business in town. Let’s head out.”
I worked the bandana out of my mouth. “I’ll never be an escort girl again. I’ll kill myself first.”
He chuckled. “Oh, sweet cheeks. You’re not going to be an escort. You’re much too good for that.”
Dread filled my gut as Skeleton leaned down, placing his face into my view.
“You’re going to be my little sex slave. And it’s going to be a wild ride.”
I thrashed around again as someone closed the doors to the van. I had to tell the guys. I had to get word to them! They had been betrayed. One of those bitch-ass girls had ratted all of us out, and I had to tell them! I tried to get up. I tried to untie my hands and wrists, but a boot stepped against the small of my back, crushing my spine to the floor as I wailed in pain.
