His Dark Obsession

6. An Attempt

was going to be safe. —– Three hours had passed, and I was lost. I didn’t know where I was and without my phone, I had nothing to guide me, they would know I was missing by now. Would someone come after me? Tears burned at the thought of the monster I was given to. Like I was nothing more than a piece of property. I wouldn’t go, I wouldn’t let him take me. Betrayal washed through me; how could they do this to me? My knuckles were white, my nails digging into my hand, threatening to break through my tender skin as I gripped the steering wheel with all my might. My hands were clammy and a bead of sweat rolled down the back of my neck as fear perfumed from my pores while I tried to navigate the roads. Rain battered down on the windshield, making visibility extremely difficult, and I was straining to see past the hood of the car. The wipers were moving as fast as they could, but it did nothing to help see the road ahead. “Please come on…” I whispered, peering out at the darkness. The road was narrow, winding around the bend of the hilly, rocky side. One wrong move and my car would go hurtling down the side of this very mountain.  How far was I? Would they find me? I press my foot on the gas a little too hard, the back end of the car sliding on the slippery roads. Quickly I lifted my foot off the gas pedal, I didn’t even have a driver’s licence, so this wasn’t one of my brighter ideas considering driving wasn’t something I had experience with, but… I had no other choice. I couldn’t go back there. I wouldn’t go back there. Fear enveloped me at the memory that plagued my mind once more. My hands shook as I clutched the steering wheel tightly, my heart beating like a thousand drums as I eased the gas back on. I couldn’t go back there; I refuse to go back there. Even if I wanted to, the road was far too narrow to turn this car around. Please clear up… Tears burned my eyes, making what little vision I had out the window even worse, I couldn’t return to him, not when I knew what he was… My chest was heaving violently, and I could feel a panic attack coming on. Grandmother Philomena’s voice echoed in my mind. ‘Deep breaths Evangeline, you may be an Omega but do not show your weakness!’ She was harsh, but I always thought she had a good heart… Did she? She had sold me like I was a piece of clothing. I inhaled deeply, counting slowly to ten as I exhaled. Slow and steady… breathe in… breathe out… I needed to get away from Dark Falls immediately. The blaring sound of a horn and blinding headlights made me brake, sending me slamming into the steering wheel. My heart was racing as the car slowly drove past, honking in annoyance. It’s ok, Evangeline… you’ve got this…. I bit my trembling plump lip, feeling the taste of blood lingering in my mouth as I restarted the car once again, taking another shuddering breath. I had just rounded another bend when suddenly a menacing growl rumbled outside. Screaming in fear, I let go of the steering wheel as something huge hit the windshield shattering the glass, the impact sending my car off the rocky winding road and tumbling down the side of the mountain. No! I felt myself dropping at a terrifying speed and I clenched my eyes shut, not wanting to see death come at me. Yet when the car finally hit the bottom, I was flung back and forward, my nose hit the steering wheel, and pain rushed through my entire body as the car flipped over several times before it came to a stop. My entire body was screaming with agony and my head felt like it was about to explode. Somehow…I am still alive. How, I do not know, but I was still breathing, though my heart felt like it might burst out of my chest at any given second. Glancing around, I was met with darkness. What was that thing? Panic slowly writhes through me. My hands fumble with the seatbelt, yanking on it. Trying to undo my seatbelt, my heart beats violently as I tugged at it with shaking hands, but it was too late… the car started moving, becoming unstuck from between the two trees it was wedged between. A deafening scream leaves me as I watch the terrain rush past the windows before it comes to a stop. The car smashes into the rocks below as my head snaps back, blinding pain rushing through my waist and leg. My head was pounding, and my vision darkened. No… I didn’t want to die! Fear enveloped me as I freed myself from the seatbelt. Bits of glass were stuck in my arm, and I could smell the copper scent of my blood as it filled the air. Once again, I tried to scramble out of my seat. I hissed when I realised my leg was stuck, the side of the car was completely smashed in, trapping me within its confines… What should I do? I looked around, realising despite the pouring rain there was a light… I squinted, trying not to succumb to the darkness. Instead, focusing on the slight flickering of orange, blinking, I watch as it travels along the hood when clarity hits me. Fire… The smell of oil filled my nose seconds later, and I realised if I didn’t get out now, I really would die… In my panic, I start yanking on my seatbelt when that doesn’t work, I start banging on the door, and scraping one of my legs trying to free them. The flames grew closer, the heat coming in through the shattered windshield. I pulled as hard as I could, but I was failing. “Someone help me!” I screamed, hissing when the metal ripped through my leg as I ripped it free. Blood. There was blood everywhere, I looked at my hands, the blood covering them made my chest heave as I struggled to breathe. I realised I was far more injured than I had realised. Flashes of blurred memories glared before my eyes, haunting me. Blood… Fire… Dead bodies and screaming… Focus Evangeline… Come on… I cried out in pain as I broke my other leg in the process of freeing myself from the car. Tears of pain streamed down my cheeks. Goddess… Suddenly the door was ripped off its hinges and just as my vision tunnelled I saw the black boots that slowly approached, the rushing rain splashing off them. Each silent step sounded like it was roaring in my ears. Terror consumed me as I slowly looked up those legs clad in black jeans, the leather jacket he was wearing was dripping with water, and then I looked into the blood-red eyes of the beast I was trying to escape. A cold smirk crossed his handsome face, as he crouched beside me, watching me. His gaze was almost amused that I had tried to escape him. Slowly, he reached down, pinching my chin between his fingers. I hissed at the pain in my neck as he ruthlessly forced my head up. “Well well well… look what I caught. A scared little mouse. You didn’t think you could escape me, did you?” His deep seductive voice came, but it only made a shiver run down my spine. I try to jerk my face from his tight grip, but he pinches harder. “Let me go.” I whispered, trying to pull away. “I should punish you for making me chase you. Although I must admit, I love a good game of cat and mouse.” A whimper escapes me and he tsked, clicking his tongue. “Don’t cry, Love. I will let your disobedience slide just this once,” “Please… Please…” I beg. “I never asked for this,” Tears spilled down my cheeks and my breathing was uneven and wracked with sobs. “Don’t beg, the only time I want you begging is for my cock. And you will beg, little Omega.” He was enjoying this, I could see it in his eyes. I shook my head. I didn’t want to go with this man. I just wanted to go home, wherever that was. Begging, I looked up at
