《Nicknames》Chapter 23 ~ Taken

🌙
I stare up at the wood ceiling as I lay cuffed to the uncomfortable bed. My ex actually kidnapped me. He wasn't this crazy when we were dating...was he? Maybe he was.
The door to the room I'm in opens and I immediately stiffen. I can't move anywhere. My hands and feet are cuffed to the bed because I kicked him in the jaw when he brought me here. Wherever the hell "here" is.
"I brought you some breakfast, baby." He announces, coming up to the side of my bed and caressing the side of my face.
I sit up as much as I can and look at the plate of food he has held up to me. Burnt waffles, runny eggs, and flimsy bacon. Definitely not Carter's cooking. It's not like I get much of a choice seeing as he will be feeding me since he won't release me unless I need to go the bathroom.
For 10 minutes, I swallow the food he shoves into my mouth. There is a high chance my next visit to the bathroom will be this food coming up.
"Carter's going to find me," I growl as he watches me from the corner of the room in a chair.
My comment only makes him scoff and say something about no one knowing about this place. But I know Carter will find me. He has to find me.
He laughs and drags his hands over my thigh. "Monkey, you will love me again."
I roll my eyes and try to move away from him. I hate the way he's touching me and I always hated that nickname. I hate everything about this encounter.
It's been two years and he believes I will love him again. He's officially lost his mind and it's pretty obvious.

"Have you had sex with him?" He asks randomly.
I don't answer because we have had a form of oral sex. But my nonanswer did not make Anthony happy because the grip on my thigh tightened painfully as his glare became intense. He's definitely gone psycho.
"You're a fucking whore." He leans in and presses a kiss on my cheek. "I'll forgive you."
There is nothing to forgive me of, and I really hope Carter and our team will find me soon.
Finally, Anthony pulls away and I try my best to keep the relief from showing too much. But my relief doesn't last long when he tells me the Carter called. I was immediately on edge again.
"Can I talk to him?" I plead. I really just want to hear his voice.
"If he calls again, I might think about it."
"Please," I beg.
His eyes narrow in my direction and a wave of fear washes over me. "I said if he calls again, I might think about it."
I don't push anymore. I really just want to fall asleep.
"What does this Carter have that I don't, Luna? Tell me!"
"Everything," I spit out.
He nods and walks out, slamming the door behind him. He's a sociopath and I don't know how long I have before he snaps. This means I can't rely completely on Carter to come to save me. I need to try and save myself.

Midthalion Saga
+++Working on new chapters. Share what I've posted with your friends and family! Be sure to build strong bonds with those who are important to you. We only have each other in this world for so long!+++ Can Roderick XXIII gather together and train a party of adventurers to clear out Madeon Caves and bring peace to the wildmarches of Midthalion? Sent from his home monastery in the west to the wildmarches of Midthalion, Roderick the Holy Avenger is devoted to living out his oath to bring the Holy Light to the dark corners of the world. He enlists the help of an old friend, Ulrich Vogelbrandt the dwarf druid, to train and prepare a fighting force capable of defending the west from the evil they both see gathering and growing in the east. Eoroth is an ode to Tolkienesque epic fantasy, Robert E Howard and H.P. Lovecraft's pulp fiction, and Gygaxian Dungeons & Dragons. I like to write about serious topics because I think it's fun. I hope it makes for a fun read. Place: Eoroth, a vast, flat world with many continents set in oceans that reach out and mingle with the Celestial Sea. Our story takes place on the continent of Thalion in the middle, unsettled region called Midthalion. Peoples: Races in Eoroth aren't different species; the species of man is just incredibly diverse, consisting of many known races (and perhaps some unknown). There are no humans in Thalion. Thalion's races include variations of elves, dwarves, halflings (billowits), pierros (clownish men), bergeracs (long-nosed and swarthy men of honour), orcs, trolls, goblins, and hobgobs. The Church: There's one dominant religion in Westhalion. The faith of the elves is an analogue to Roman Catholicism while the dwarves practice an Eastern Orthodox analogue. (Forgive me for not having figured out names yet.) The practitioners worship a triune god (the All-Father, Son-of-All, and Holy Light). There are many powers in heaven, all created by God. These include the Twelve High Thrones, individual, created beings who take on the role of guiding mankind in different aspects, drawing them closer and closer to God. (That should be the essentials. I could write pages on the theology. Comment where something's unclear in the story.) Natural World: There are plants and animals in Eoroth, but the world is also inhabited by spirits called aeons. Aeons are transformative beings; in the wild, they'll change based on whatever is happening nearby. Pollute a pond? Expect to see toxic toad-men running around. Leave a bunch of dead bodies strewn across a battlefield? Expect the place to become haunted with ghouls and ghasts. Druids are important for making sure that the aeons are pacified; that their needs are met so that they don't become rampaging monsters. Where the wilderness becomes overgrown, so too do the aeons. Aeons and People: Long ago, men learned how to trap aeons in stone tablets and use them for war. Now, anyone can capture an aeon into a special staff made by a druid. Men train, raise, and bond with these aeons. Druids often build entire ranches devoted to raising healthy aeons as allies and companions. Aeons are divided into twelve known families, and the church sees these as corresponding with the Twelve Thrones in Heaven. Direction: My goal is to get the story to one million words by June next year. I have tons of content in mind for the world. I want to release novels set in different ages of the world depicting different historical events. I hope to expand the setting into a tabletop role-playing game as well as a series of old-school JRPGs. But, it all begins with writing some stories and publishing my novels.
