untouchable-love

Alisha had a hard start in life. Her parents have died and she had to go live with her uncle. But things started looking up again until something happens.

On the evening of the award ceremony, she gets abducted by someone. Secrets about her family come to light.

Jason is the one person who she should never want. He is part of the people who captured her and they barely get along. but she can't help herself from finding him attractive............

The party started and everyone started drinking and dancing. I must admit that I also had a few drinks too many. The music was way too loud and it felt like it is beating through my skull. At one stage I had to go outside for some air because I was starting to get nauseous. This is the first time that I have drunk more than one drink. I was not really part of Matthew's crowd.

I went and stood in the rose garden that is a long way from the house and the only peaceful place around the whole house. I stood and watched the water in the fountain. Although there were a lot of people inside, I felt so lonely. I turned to look at the moon and wondered if it had also felt as lonely as I did. Suddenly I heard footsteps behind me but when I turned around there was no one, just the slight breeze playing in the leaves.

Most of the people assumed that I was the life of the party, but they didn’t really know me. If they really did, they would know that my cheerleader persona was all only an act.

I turned back and looked at the moon once again but it is clouded over with clouds. Suddenly someone grabbed me from behind and put a hand over my mouth to stop me from screaming. I tried to fight the person but he was way too strong.

“Stop fighting, you STUPID BITCH! If you know what is good for you, you will follow me without a fight...So, princess, do we do this the easy way or the hard way?” the person said.

It is a deep voice. Definitely a man I thought. I bit his hand and hit him with my elbow on the stomach. This dude did not know who he was dealing with; I have been training for years for this day. If only I had a weapon with me right now, I thought.

“Oh, I see! Our little queen has decided on the hard way ... so much like daddy aren’t we?” he said and I stilled.

There weren’t many people who knew my father, at least not in this country. We immigrated to South Africa a few months after the funeral. I just couldn’t stand seeing all the places that we, as a family, visited together. The memories haunted me at night and nothing I did could stop it from happening. But after we moved, things got much better.

He grabbed my arm again he held me so tight against him, that I almost couldn’t breathe.

“What do you know about my father?” I tried to scream but it barely came out as a hiss.

Then he was holding my neck so tight that he almost choked me. “OH! Darling, I know enough about your father!” he said and put a little cloth over my mouth.

The last thing that I could remember was his laugh before everything went black ...
