Chapter 34: Chapter 34

Sara’s P.O.V

I lay on my bed and my eyes were on the first ray of the sun to come through my window. No matter how much I tried I couldn't sleep and instead just looked through the window. I was tossing and turning in bed nearly all night replaying what happened in the club and what Daniel did to that man, I was horrified and even though I kept trying to forget it, I couldn't and in the end I gave up. It was finally morning and it was my last day in this house, I sat up in bed and looked around my room.

A sad smile came to my face as the thought of leaving kept coming to my mind. I got out of bed and went to my wardrobe, I took out my towel and went to the bathroom to take a bath. I wasn't going to take a quick bath today, I didn't need to, I had plenty of time. After comfortably bathing for a long time I got out of the bath and dried myself off, going back to my wardrobe and looking at my clothes, but my eyes went straight to the clothes that Daniel purchased for me. I touched the clothes and knew that they were very expensive, but I couldn't help wonder why he brought them for me. Could I return them to him? I know they are not of any use to him, but I couldn't accept them as gifts either.

I didn't know what I should do about them and even if I could take them back to him I was too nervous to see him face to face again. I remembered what happened when he touched my waist, it was like he had claimed me before, like I was his.

I looked at my wardrobe again and took out the clothes to go to the office, but stopped when I realised that I didn't have to go to the office today. Today was the day of my party and only other people would be going into the office while I had half a day off and would have to go in the evening. I put the clothes I normally wear on and did my hair. I left my room but quickly went back because I had forgotten my purse. I grabbed my passbook and put it in my purse and threw my broken phone in the dustbin, closing my bedroom door as I left.

I walked downstairs and everything seemed to be strangely peaceful, which was weird because normally Ryan would always be up early in the morning making noises that echoed throughout the house, but today he wasn't. I approached the dining room and noticed that no one was here, it was usual for my dad not to be here, but it was strange that Lucy and Ryan weren't here. I searched the entire house, but found no one and I don't know what was going on but I knew it didn't feel right, it felt eerie. I looked at my watch and then looked again, thinking that i might have gotten up a bit earlier than normal, but it was nine in the morning and they were normally here at this time. There was a sudden knock at the door which made me jump and for some reason it made me feel nervous. I was all alone here and the sound of the door bell was increasing, making me even more nervous. I took a deep breath and told myself that I was being stupid, that nothing was wrong and that it was just someone ringing the doorbell. I quickly ran over to the door to answer it because the person was getting impatient and non stop ringing the bell, which was making me angry. I swung the door open and saw that there were at least seven to eight men standing there, all of them dressed in dark clothes and they were all tall and well built, but they looked dangerous.

“Yes, who is it you're looking for?” I asked, trying my hardest to keep my voice as normal as possible when on the inside I wanted to run away in fear. They all looked like criminals, just then a man stepped forward and the others quickly moved out of his way. He stood in front of me and didn't say a word, he just looked me up and down.

“You are ten times more beautiful than we had heard.” The man said. Why was he talking about my beauty? Who has told him about me? Why are they here? The man must have seen my expression change from barely confident to scared because he smiled at me.

“We have come to see your father.” The man said, smiling normally at me. I looked at them all carefully, but they all had their eyes on me.

“Dad isnt home right now, he has gone out for some work, but you're welcome to call back later to see him.” I replied and the man took out his phone from his pocket. He was doing something on it like sending a message, when suddenly he held the phone up and took a picture of me.

“What the….” I started to say, but he cut me off. I wanted to ask him why he was taking my picture, what he was going to do with it, but most of all I wanted to tell him to delete it.

“The work we came for is done. We will meet again soon.” The man said, turning around and leaving, taking all his men with him. I stood there still shocked at what the strange man did and watched as they all got into expensive looking cars and drove away. I stood in the doorway for a few minutes, watching them until I could no longer see them and went back inside. Were they really here to see my dad? If they were, then why did he take my photo and then leave? What the hell is going on today?
