Chapter 2: Escaped

Out of the shadows, another man appeared, holding a much stronger flashlight, rendering her blind. She could not see his face. "Shhh... Aruna... There you are...." He said excitedly.

Adrian's eyes ignited with lust as he slowly walked in Aruna's direction. She was wearing a very well-worn white, lace, flowy nightgown with long sleeves that reached to her knees, making her look wraithlike and her milky skin glow in the dark. In her struggle, the neckline of her gown slipped, exposing her right shoulder, showing the lace if her bra. Her skirt hitched up higher on her waist when she struggled to sit up, giving him a glimpse of her creamy white thighs.

Aruna felt mortified the second he got closer, the large scar running across his right eye had always scared her, but the rest of him looked like any normal guy, he was not that fit, the bulge of his tummy showed underneath the black suit and pants he was wearing. With his tie loose around the neck, he grinned from ear to ear, showing his yellowish teeth. He looked at her with malicious intent, and this made Aruna want to puke.

"Please, Adrian.. Spare me, I beg of you" Aruna pleaded as he drew closer. Adrian's laugh grew louder as it echoed in the empathy walls.

"Can't you see... I'm helping you get your freedom from your dad" Adrian caressed her face using the back of his fingers, trailing it from her neck to her exposed shoulders. Aruna tried to squirm away, but her ties offered her no movement. "I know he's been torturing you for the past few years. You should thank me for saving you, right?" He caressed, then strangled, her neck.

"Besides, you're lucky enough that I close you over the women who were begging for my attention" he whispered as he grabbed one of her legs and continued to caress its length slowly, savoring the feel or her silky skin. "I wouldn't waste my time on you if your father didn't owe me"

"Hmmm... You smell good" Aruna winced as she smelled Adrian's foul breath when he came closer to her face, sniffing her hair.

'Did he even brush his teeth? His breath makes me want to faint'. She thought.

Marco untied her, which gave her relief.

"Don't worry. I am better than your father. I am richer.. I can give you everything you need, but not your freedom, because you are always going to be mine" he smirked. Aruna felt disgusted, so she spat in his face.

"You son of a bitch!" He slapped Aruna so hard she saw stars. The impact was so strong that his palm got imprinted on her face, and blood dripped down her lips. "Do you know how hard it is for me to be this nice? Let me teach you a lesson"

Aruna gasped when Adrian pushed her to the ground. In one swift move, he was on top of her, trapping both of her hands tightly above her head using one hand while the other caressed her body from her breast to her thighs. "This will be your punishment" he whispered, making her shiver.

Adrian tried to kiss her with his wet, sloppy, disgusting mouth. Aruna tried to avoid it by turning her head the other way and twisting her body, but he pressed his body closer, leaving no space between them.

'He will not get me. I will not let him take me. I need get out of here'. She thought. Aruna tries to fight back, but the man is bigger and heavier. How can she overpower him? She hears her top being torn apart and closes her eyes, asking the heavens to take pity on her.

Adrian smirked upon seeing Aruna with her eyes closed. "You like it, don't you?" He says as he grabs her breast and licks her neck. She whines and Adrian, blinded with lust, thinks of it as a moan of acceptance.

"Yes, make more noise" he grinds his groin against hers, letting her feel his bulge. Aruna was helpless, but she prayed she'd have her opportunity soon.

When he could any more foreplay, he pulled away from her lower body and unbuckled his pants. Aruna saw this moment to knee Adrian in the crotch, making him double over in pain.

This was her chance to escape. Aruna got out of the house and ran in the direction she assumed led to streets. She didn't stop until her feet reached a paved roadway, where she paused and cried while trying to wipe away all the kisses Adrian left on her mouth and her skin.

"That disgusting pig with his stinky breath tried to rape me. Good thing I got awa" it took a while for her to get here.

With no shoes on her feet, she had to scramble through rocky and thorny terrain, and only her adrenalin kept though her body told her it was tired and couldn't take any more abuse. But she couldn't do that. Adrian might still be on her tail. She stopped and gasped for air, turning around to see if he had followed her. When she was sure nobody was behind her, she felt relieved but did not stop.

Aruna walked across the paved road, to the other side of the street to put more distance between her and Adrian. But the light of an oncoming car dazzled her like a deer caught in the headlights. She stood there, terrified, her body frozen and unable to move as the car approached and kept on honking. She tightly closed her eyes and clenched her first as she heard a long beep of the horn, praying to God to save her yet again.

Thankfully the car stopped right in time, the bumper only a few inches away from her leg. When Aruna felt the car halt, she opened her eyes.. and fainted.

To be continue.
