Chapter 70 - Nowhere To Hide.

Chapter 70: Nowhere to hide.

"Chloe! Chloe! Chloe! Baby, I liked you better when you were a scared puppet for my amusement. You don't want to make the love of your life angry now, do you?" Kane asked with a wicked laugh.

"You are just a little sicko that feels so small that he needs to hit and belittle people to make himself feel bigger. That is just sad and weakly pathetic, Kane. No wonder I left your sorry ass" Naya's voice was calm and collected like she was discussing a dinner plan instead of threatening a sick mad man.

She heard Kane bang his hand on the car's dashboard.

"How dare you say that to me? How dare you, speak to me in that manner?!" Kane was blind with rage.

He removed his phone from his ear and sent a picture to Naya's email.

"You will grovel before me, Cee-Cee. You will ask for forgiveness and you will mean it" Kane said in-between his clenched Jaw.

"Like I said, you are a weak pathetic..."

Naya was interrupted by Kane.

"You should take a look at the photo attachment I sent to you email before you finish your sentence, Chloe. The little girl would appreciate it"

Naya could hear her heart pound faster and faster. Oh God! He has Kara. Naya settled for taking quick breathes from her mouth to settle herself as her shaky hands opened her email to see a picture of a little girl she loved.

"Anna!" She whispered to herself.

"Oh, is that her name? I thought she was called i - am - going - to - be - dead - soon - if - Chloe - keep - upsetting - me"

Naya quiver a little. Kane had the little girl under surveillance and he was threatening to kill her.

Anna was a child Naya raised in the orphanage that was successful placed with a good family in Chicago. How did someone as vile as Kane find out about such a sweet little girl?

"Don't you hurt her? Don't you dare hurt her" Naya wanted to cuss but she didn't.

"I still hearing threats! Do you want me to set her on fire?" Kane yelled in rage.

"I am sorry. I don't know what I was thinking. I am really sorry" 

There was silence for a moment.

"Good" Kane Chuckled like he was having fun "Now, tell me how you missed me. Seven years is a long time to be away from the love of your life, Chloe" 

Naya was silent and it pissed off Kane. 

"Tell me how much you miss me or I will fucking slit Anna's throat, Chloe?!" Kane's yelling startled Naya.

"I miss you, Kane" Naya whispered.

"I am not convinced. Convince me, baby. Show me how you love me, okay Cee-Cee?" 

Naya felt the drop of tears on her face before she spoke "I miss you so much, honey. I miss you so much that it hurts sometimes."

Kane was over the moon with excitement.

"You've not told me how much you love me?" Kane told her.

Naya hesitated. She would rather drink a bucket of acid but then she looked at the picture she was holding. Anna was innocent. She reminded herself that she was doing it for Anna.

"I love you Kane. Honey, can you tell me where you are?"

Naya opened the wardrobe and took out her gun. She couldn't take the chance that the scum of earth was in her home... maybe in the sitting room right that moment.

"Because you've been a good girl, I will give you a hint. It's a country....obviously and her flag has two colors...green and you can guess the rest" Kane laughed out loud.

"Nigeria!" Naya exhaled sharply.

"Do not lay a finger on my daughter, Kane?" Naya said in-between her clenched jaw.

"I am going to tell you a story. Three days before I came here, I arrested a junkie that was also an entrepreneur, if you know what I mean. He offered to do anything for me if I drop the charges. I know what you are thinking.... everyone deserves a second chance or fourth if you ask him since he just came out of prison for almost killing his girlfriend. And well, I gave him one but on one condition, he keeps an eye on the little girl named Anna. Don't worry, I made him promise not do bad stuff to her... until I give my say so" Kane cleared the fog at the back of his throat and continued.

"Now, I am going after my daughter. You've had her for seven years. Now, it's my turn and if you try to warn Jason or anybody about me then you can kiss sweet little Anna goodbye. There are no second chances. Now, let's play this game and may the best Kane win"

The phone went dead.

Naya did not panic instead she sat on the bed and took a deep breath. This was going to go two ways, either she falls apart or she use duct tape to hold herself together and do something about Kane.

She stood up from the bed and went to the bathroom and switched the shower. Then the stereo, she had to find the bugs in her home.

Naya found one in her bedroom, two in the living room and a damaged one in the bathroom - pervert!.

She went outside to relay to Veronica what was going on.

"Are you sure you can't warn the boss and her son?" Veronica asked her.

"Can't risk Anna's life?"

"Why aren't you scared or angry, Naya? He is going after your child" Veronica looked frightened.

"I can't make it personal or I will fail or worst fall apart. I need a ticket to Nigeria. Can you get it for me?" Naya asked the older woman.

"Of course, consider it done"

Naya started walking away when she heard Veronica speak to her again.

"What are you going to do, Naya?" Veronica asked her.

Naya turned to stare at her. In retrospect she might be looking through her.

"What am I going to do?" Naya bit her lower lip slightly "I am going to do what I should have done years ago. I am going to fight back and I am going to crush him"

Kane turned the music up. He couldn't remember the last time he had this much fun. Winning was definitely fun and punishing those that deserves to be punished was purely orgasmic. He made a stop at the hotel he was staying to pick up a bag.

Thanks to the navigation system on Amazing car, locating Kara's school wasn't so difficult for Kane but he was an hour early and he had to wait.

The little bag he picked up contained everything he needed to carry out his plan. All he was missing was a place to stash the kid until he can get both of them out of the country.

Kane checked his wristwatch; it's been almost an hour since he drugged Amazing. He really hoped that the drug was still working and she was still out or everything, all his plans goes up in flame.

Amazing would track her car and she would figure out what he was up too. She was a pretty little thing but she was smart too, it was a deadly combination. Kane hated smart people especially smart beautiful women.

He made himself comfortable in the car and very soon, it was pick up time and he was driving inside the school.

"What's the pass code?" The hefty looking security guard asked him.

Showing his most charming smile, he said the pass code to the man.

"Thank you Sir. You can drive through....next!" The security guard yelled.

"Thank you" Kane opened his wallet and took out a couple of dollars and gave it to the man.

His gratitude went beyond the heavens and Earth.

Kane drove in and parked outside the school. Two seconds later, the door opened and children poured out, each looking for a familiar car to enter.

Kara and Lucy emerged into the parking lot. The day was over and It was time to go home. Kara chatted with her friend as she looked for her mother's car but she didn't see it.

"I can't believe I failed that question"

"Lucy, you will get the answer next time" Kara told her as she continued to look around.

"Do you want to have a sleepover? My mom wants to meet my best friend. She is a great cook" Lucy told her.

"I will ask my parents" Kara kept looking around.

"Your mother is not here yet.... don't worry, my driver can drop you at home" Lucy offered.

Then Kara saw Amazing's car parked in an unusual spot. It was weird but she shrugged it off.

"Thank you, Lucy but I think my Auntie Maze is here to pick me up. Goodbye"

"Bye, Kara"

Kara walked to the car and opened the door. She simply entered.

"Good afternoon, Auntie Maze..." Her voice trailed off when she saw the driver.

"Hello, Kara!"

"You are not my Aunt..." Kara tried to get out but then she felt a pinch at the side of her neck and everything became pitch dark. 

And slowly she was surrounded by it.

Help me!
