"Would you like to rethink your last request?" He asked pleasantly. His toe nudged my broken leg and I heard a piercing scream. With a shock I realized it was mine.
"Wouldn't you rather have Edward try to find me?" he prompted.
"No!" I croaked. "No, Edward, don't –"
James cut off my plea. He grabbed a fistful of my hair and forced me into a kneeling position. My broken leg screamed in protest. I tried to stifle a gasp of pain but his smirk let me know he was enjoying my suffering. He picked up the little digital video camera from its place on the VCR and held it in front of my face. I stared numbly at the small blinking red light, still recording.
"I think your Edward will enjoy this little video. Maybe he'll enjoy seeing the things I'm going to do to you?" he mocked.
His hand fisted tighter in my hair as he jerked my body against his own. His tight grip held me in place. Pulling the fistful of hair, he forced my head to tilt back-- exposing my neck. He turned my face toward the camera, positioning me like a puppet. I choked back any sound of pain, knowing that the theatrics were all meant for Edward. I wouldn't allow my weakness to hurt him more.
"I've never seen such an odd spectacle. A vampire and a human. What is it about you that makes you so special?" He studied me quizzically. His head cocked to the side as if he were trying to achieve an angle that would unlock the puzzle.
"I just don't understand. Does your body tempt him more than your blood?" he growled against my neck. His tongue darted out to taste my skin and trailed a slow path up my neck to my ear. I shuddered in revulsion and squeezed my eyes closed.
He released his hold on my hair and I stumbled back a half step away from him. He moved so suddenly, I wasn't aware of what happened at first. He ripped my shirt from my body and I stood there as he stared at my exposed flesh. I stood trembling in just my bra and jeans. His expression was assessing. I began to see something more calculating forming behind his eyes. He took a step back from me, probably to get the full effect of the terrified human nearly cowering before him.
"Tell him you love him." he taunted. "Beg him to save you."
"Please. Don't." I choked out.
I couldn't move. I knew running was useless. I just stood there as he continued to leer at me. I trembled with fear as I realized the possibilities of how he could violate me for his sick game. All of my bravery was gone. I was weak and human and finally as scared as I should have been all along.
I tried to cover my body with my arms. His hand grabbed my arm roughly, yanking away my weak protection. He looked me up and down deliberately and I had to choke down my nausea.
"Beg me to let you live." he sneered.
When I remained frozen, his fingers clenched tightly around my neck. My hands clawed uselessly against his grasp. I couldn't breathe or speak. I could only shake my head while tears flowed down my cheeks. He pushed me roughly by my neck until my back and head slammed against a mirror. I heard the distinct sound of cracking glass and felt more pain to my abused body. The force of the impact caused my vision to go black around the edges. His hand released my neck and I gasped for air.
"Such sweet blood shouldn't go to waste on someone who won't even sample it." He pressed his finger firmly against my trembling, tear-stained lips and dragged it deliberately downward. His fingers trailed over my chin and down my throat, lingering at the hollow of my neck. He paused over my hammering pulse point and leaned in to inhale deeply.
"Ahh. I do so enjoy this part. The adrenaline makes even your delectable scent so much better." he purred with menacing pleasure.
The fear coursing through me and the trauma to my body became too much. I lost my tenuous grasp on consciousness. Everything went blurry and my vision went completely black.
AN: I already have a few more chapters written. Review if you like it and I'll keep this going. The next chapter is from Edward's POV.
