" Why are you back home so early? ", Caitlyn asked.
" Oh its nothing ", Layla replied while scratching her chin. She couldn't let anyone, not even Caitlyn know about it.
Caitlyn stared at her cousin before letting out a sigh, " You got fired didn't you "
" I.... I "
" Stop trying to hide it, I knew it was coming since your boss is such a good for nothing scum bag ", she said hitting her hand on the table.
" Just forget it Caitlyn, I'll just find a new job ", Layla replied trying to calm her hot tempered cousin down.
" And how do you plan on doing that, finding a job here is like looking for a needle in a haystack and even if you do without a letter of recommendation it won't be easy, your boss might even pour dirt on your name to apply for ", Caitlyn let out all of her pent up frustration.
Layla was touched that her cousin cared so much for her more than anyone she knew. " I'll get through this, you don't need to worry "
" What if you don't, then mom will dad will kick you out ", Caitlyn replied solemnly.
Layla knew of this fact well. She only had a limited amount of time before the mistress found out, she slowly exhaled.
" I have to get going ", Caitlyn said as she headed out.
" See ya ", Layla waved at her friend as she left the bungalow. Once she shut the door she fell to her knees and cried.
' Stop, stop crying ', she tried to hold it in but she couldn't. Maybe that's what she needs, a good cry. She didn't hold it back any longer and let it all out. After a couple of minutes of crying, she went straight to her laptop and searched for job opportunities. She saw a dozen that needed new secretaries and assistants. She applied to almost all to try her luck. She did a little surfing on the internet and saw a trending topic.

Her eyes swept through the comments, ' rich scion? ', she scoffed, she's had her fair share of wealthy scions and they've all turned out to be spoiled arrogant cheating bastards, in fact, all men were the same and couldn't be trusted as far as she was concerned.
She shut her laptop and stretched a little then her tummy grumbled. She looked around the house for something edible but when she couldn't, she to ok k her purse and phone then went out grocery shopping. She stealthily snuck out of the villa once she noticed her aunt's black Porsche parked in front of her mansion.
In the late afternoon, she walked home with her headphones on and a bag of groceries in hand. She didn't notice the black van tailing her or so they thought. Once she went down the bend, she began to run and she didn't stop until she reached the villa. She quietly ran towards the bungalow and shut the door, only then did she become less tense.
'Who were those guys? ', she thought as she began to prepare a late brunch. She decided to make sandwiches. She rinsed and began slicing the raw ingredients, half wat through it she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. Before she could face the intruder a hand covered her mouth, she tried to break free but to no avail. The knife in her hand fell as she slowly lost consciousness.
She blinked sluggishly as light flashed in her eyes and she could her muffled voices.
"We're ready miss ', a man said
" O-okay ", wasn't that Caitlyn's voice? She tried to remain conscious to hear what was. happening, " just don't hurt her....."
Caitlyn's voice slowly faded, what was happening?!? Was her dear cousin in on this , no I can't be? She doubted as she finally lost consciousness.
...
" Pant...Pant ", she quickly sat up and noticed she was in a dark, cold, desolate, unfamiliar place. ' what happened ', she touched her head as it throbbed with pain then suddenly everything that happened came rushing back... she was kidnapped!!
She quickly scanned her surroundings, it looked like she was in a cell. The cell door was locked and its bars were tight, she couldn't squeeze through so she looked towards the only window. It was high up, close to the ceiling and it also had similar bars . she tried to reach for it . It was clearly already night time as she could see stars. She sat on the floor, her feet cold and her body shivering.
Who thought that she had escaped from these guys only to be followed back to her house. But she gives them credit, these guys just don't give up. She hugged her knees tighter to keep herself warm.
' Could Caitlyn really do such a thing?..., the one person I trusted ', she bit her lower lip as tears dropped from her eyes
*BANG*
Her attention was shifted to a man standing by the cell door. He held a stick in one hand, probably what he used to hit the bars and a in the other hand, a tray.
The man started at the petite tender woman in her early twenties staring at him as tears ran from her big emerald green eyes down her delicate cheeks and with the rays of moonlight bouncing of her skin. She looked breathtaking! The man quickly withheld his lewd thoughts before he did something that would cost him his life. His boss instructed that they needed virgins and nothing else so this man had to control his urges.
" Your food is here ", he said as he slid the tray under the bars, " eat up before the rats do "
He then left her once again, she stared at the food, it looked unappetizing. Before she could refuse it her tummy grumbled. She unwilling are the slop then before you know it, she drifted into sleep.
