Chapter 4 Knights Mansion

Isabella's pov:

I woke up in dark room. I panicked looked around the room. My phone was on nightstand I grabbed it with shaking hands. I looked at the screen, there were eight missed calls and a voicemail. I instantly called Jessica she picked up after two calls. "Hello! Bella?" She panicked on other side, "J-Jessy" I answered weakly, she sighed and mumbled something in her breath, "Where are you?" She asked me, "I-I am in a dark room of the club. Jessica, I-I'm scared." I sobbed out, "Bella please calm down. Okay? We are still in the club. First of all, leave the room and look at the door number." She tried to comfort me. I did what she told me, I looked at the door there was a number 'room no.23'. After she got room no. She told me to stay there.

After sometime they walked in the room, I was sitting on the couch. They gasped, there stares were making. I closed my eyes and tried to cover myself ashamed of myself, I was still shivering with cold and terror. I felt someone covered me with jacket, I hold it tight. That bile sensation was still in my throat, " Oh my god Bella, who did this to you?" Jessica sat beside me and hugged me I broke down in her embrace Bella please calm down, see we are here with you." I still didn't say anything, I was not feeling like talking anymore. She was caressing my hair still hurting due to his assault. All I want to go home and cry into my bed. "Jessica, take me to your house. Can you?" She didn't say anything but nodded.

We walked out of the club and jumped in the car and sat on back seat. Clara and June were sitting beside me while Jessica was on diver seat. She drove us to her apartment. We reached at her apartment in twenty minutes. They led me to one of the spare room. Her apartment has three bedroom and attached bathrooms , a kitchen and hall.

They were in my room insisting me to stay with me, I declined and told them to go there room and take some rest. I assured them I'm alright and need some time to overcome it.

I walked in bathroom and stripped my dress. I looked into the mirror gasped at my image. My face had lost its light, my lips and eyes were swollen. My beautiful curled haired had turned into messy ones. I grazed my finger on my swollen lips. I shivered at the memory of him kissing me. I looked at exposed shoulders and the collar bone, there were purple marks on my pale skin. I trashed them and hissed when I reached at the junction of my neck and shoulder. I looked at the mark carefully, it was a bitten mark it was dark red. There were some clotted blood on that spot. He marked every exposed part of my body. Tears were filled in my eyes begging to free themselves. I closed my eyes let them fall freely down my cheeks leaving them wet.

I walked in shower and welcomed the cold water hit on my sore body. I hissed when they fell on my bruises, burning them. I still remember what he said before I passed out. "We are not done yet, kitten." I shot open my eyes terrified. What did he mean? Will he back and do all those awful things with me, again? I sat down the floor hugging my knees. I was praying to God that I will never see him, again. But little did I know that I can't run from him. It doesn't matter how far I'll run from, he will hunt me down. His words still echo in my mind hunting me every night (It's not the end Isabella Whites, it's beginning. I am going away from you

right now but one day I'll be back. From that day you will face hell everyday. You will suffer with every pain and I will make sure of it myself.) I cried and hugged me tightly.Tears fell down my cheeks and mixed with the water falling from shower.

I walked out of shower and covered myself with a towel while drying my hair with another.

I walked into the closet and jumped in my PJs which I leaved here last time.

I climbed in the bed and covered myself with quilt like a caterpillar covers itself in cocoon.

I closed my eyes waited for sleep to take over me still thinking about him.

I heard a knock on the door. I opened my eyes and looked at the table clock on the nightstand and widened my eye, "My god, how could I sleep that much. I jumped out the groan when I hit the ground and kissed it, accidentally.

I rushed to the door and opened it. I thought it would be Aunt Haley. Instead of her, Jessica was standing ther with her arms crossed over her chest. "You fell from the bed, again?" She smirked, "yeah" I grumbled. I was wide awoke now. "Okay come on, let's have some breakfast. You need to fill your small tummy" She poked my tummy, we giggled.

I freshened up and went to kitchen. Clara and June were also there munching on pancakes and fight eachother for another one. "You both have still two pancakes in your plates." They both stopped and looked at us, Jessica was glaring at them, I smiled. "Ana, see Clara isn't let me taste her pancake." I walked to chair beside Clara and sat down. "Let you taste, you have already shove two pancakes in your stinky mouth from my plate." Clara rolled her eyes at June, "Girl if you won't stop-"

Jessica stopped when my phone goes off. I looked at the screen, I widdened my eyes with fear. I was mom calling me. We all shared a glance, I picked up,"H-Hel-"

Where the fuck are you? whoring around? I winced at her high pitch voice and cursing. "Are both with you?" She asked, "Yes." I nodded, I glanced at my sister's and they made bored face. "Fine, Come over here in fifteen minutes or you won't like consequences." She threatened me. Understood? She added, "Y-Yes." I stuttered, she hinged up. "What did she bark?" Clara gritted, "Clara" I gaped at her, You can't use these words for your mother. I scolded her, they rolled their eyes at me. "Oh god sister, you have no idea this is so much for her, she doesn't even deserve this. I wonder how could respect her after what she did to you." I looked at Jessica, "Don't look at me like this Bella, this is your family matter." I took an angry bite. "I heard what that freak called you." She added, pointing at my phone. I was about to say something, "Eat Bella you have to go to that hell." Jessica grumbled, I frowned and ate my pancake. She was right though I didn't have much energy to face another torture.

"Do you know who was that guy who did this to you." Jessica asked, we are in car driving to home. I wore a turtle neck sweater and jeans to hide all bruises. I looked down and nodded my head, "Who?" They all asked in unison. A-Alexander. I looked away, tears started forming in my eyes on the memory of last night. There was silence in car. That silence was suffocating me. Suddenly Jessica sped up, I got scared, "Get ready girls we are going to Knight Mansion." She announced with evil smirk. Now, I regret I told her.

The car abruptly stopped made me jerk forward. They jumped out of the car but me. Jessica opened the door for me " Get your sexy ass out of the car Bella." I looked at her with pleading eyes. "Don't make me repeat myself, Isabella. "She gave me stern look. Sometimes, I hate myself to open up with people. We entered in the Mansion, I could feel everyone's gaze at me, but didn't dare to look at them. "Oh my god, Jessica, why you brought her here." You know he will kill us." Stella said with concern in her voice, "I don't give a fuck Lala, This is my house also, I can bring anyone I want." Stella startled at her behaviour, Stella walked to me, "Oh my god, who did this to you?" She examined my face which were bruised due to his death grip. "Alexander did this. Where is he?" She didn't even hide venom in her voice. "H-He is in his s-study." Stella is head made of Knight Mansion and kind one also. They turned to his study but I glued where I was. I have been here so many times for dinner with Knight family. "Isabella, let's go." Jessica gave me an stern look. "Jessy you can't go there." Stella stopped her, "Lala I won't stop today. Today is his last day on this Earth." Jessica declared, "Who the hell late you enter my house." A voice yelled from the upstairs, sent me shiver down my spine. "This house is mine as much as it is yours. So don't act like you fucking own it." Jessica snapped at him. "Don't forget you left this house six years ago for this whore." He gave me a disgusting look. "If anyone whore here is you Mr. Alexander Knights. I wonder how can you still alive the way you shove your dick in every pussy you get." She yelled at him, everyone gasped at her. Alexander gritted his teeth, "What I do is none of your concern Jessica. You choses her instead of me. You never even called me once I left New York. Now, you are here for this whor-"

I heard a slap sound and gasped. Oh god don't tell me she slapped him. I slowly looked up, his head turned to side. He was rubbing his left cheek. "Never. I said never ever call her by names. I left you because you kill my cousin Alexander who used to love her. Who trusted her no matter what. Who respected women." She walked near him and poked his chest "You are not more than an arrogant.fucker. jerk." She spat every word at his face. He gritted his teeth, he turned to me and glared at me, "You'll regret Isabella Whites." With that he stromed out of the house.

What will he do now? Was only I could think.
