《Alone》Part 2

Aspen's POV:
"I like this one"the man yelled to the others.
"Bitch we just met"I said shaking my head in disbelief.
"Well you know what i mean"he spoke back to me. "grab her and take her to the place".
"What the fuck is the 'place' and why are you taking me there"I shouted loud enough so the others could hear.
"You'll see"one of them shouted back in a British accent.
Suddenly I was grabbed by two men twice of me and keep in mind that I'm 5'4 so they were huge.
I squirmed and wiggled as they carried me to an abandoned looking forest. They had put tape on my mouth so I couldn't scream or shout for help.
They then threw me into a hut in the middle of the forest and tied my hands behind my back with rope. I tried to kick them but they were too far away.
However, they left a few minutes after due to it being boring watching me sit there tied up.
I waited a bit to make sure that they were really gone and when I was sure that they had left, I pulled out my pocket knife. Them idiots couldn't even notice the knife in my back pocket. It was easy to reach as my hands were already behind my back so all I had to do was get it at an angle. Then I spotted a full body mirror. I slid across the floor due to not being able to stand up and started playing with the knife and rope hoping that I would be able to cut the rope.
The rope split into two and my hands were free. All I had to do now was pull the tape off of my mouth. I grabbed one side of the tape and quickly pulled it off. It stung a bit but at least I was more or less free. I ran to the table that was in the middle of the room and grabbed the necklace my mother gave me when I was born. It's really special to me as it's the last thing I have from my parents or just my mum I guess. I picked it up but instead of it making me feel warm, it burned me. They put vervain into it. Oh how I hate them. I can't even touch the only thing that I love now. Sure I have my phone but I don't have the one thing that has kept my life going well.
