Easy Money (Part 4)
Dark!Robert Pronge (Mr. Freezy) x Heiress!Reader
Warning(s): +18, Minor character death, Kidnapping, Mentions of past non con, PTSD flashback, Hostage Situation.
Author's Note(s): Finally, weâre getting back on track to where I ended the first part! My babies I know that itâs a short part, but I can assure you that this is only the beginning!!
Reader isnât going down without a fight. That is until Robert finds something to hold above her head. She's given no choice but to comply.

âP-please misterâŠâ the young woman pleads for mercy. Her fingers are crooked from each snap he had given earlier. Her hair is a bloodied mess, now matted to her scalp. Her swollen doe eyes have produced yet another trail of fresh tears. She had been through hours of torment and had finally given up, âP-pleaseâŠlet me go..I-Iâve already told you everythingâŠâ her bottom lip quivers.
Robert doesnât take note of her even being there. No, itâll take a while to register the information given to him. He just sits there. He doesnât blink. Doesnât look anywhere else but through his front window. Soon enough Robert is on his toes. He doesnât waste any time holding her small throat under his palm. After a while the young women finally went limp.

This one had been faster than his usual targets. Then again it always depends on their build. She was around five feet. Cute height. But when the woman started to kick her legs is when he notices how thin they are. Not quite his type. He liked them with a fuller shape. It was a shame though. With a face like that she couldâve been a model. It took a while for him to realize who she actually was. Turns out she used to work at the underground brothel, located right next to the bar.Â
Robert lifts himself from the body. He doesnât even try freezing this one. Itâs unlike him to be so⊠careless. He hadnât bothered wearing gloves either. His work isnât this sloppy, and the only sloppiness he prefers is in the bedroom.
What had you done to him?
Robert stops by his usual convenience store to grab new tools for tonightâs mission. He keeps his gaze low when entering.

His baseball cap and glasses help him avoid any unwanted eye contact. As soon as heâd finished collecting his needs Robert heads for the register. Heâs met with an elderly woman on the other side. She scans his items with jittery hands. His jaw ticks. This was going to take a while. She notices the set of particular tools, âDo you do home renovations?â
âIâm saving up for a house actually.â
âOh? All by yourself?â
He shakes his head, âNah itâs for the Mrs.â a white lie. She softly gasps, âOh bless your heart dearâŠâ she holds a small hand to her chest. A blessing? He couldnât help but laugh. Like he needed that. Robert managed to make it so far. He canât wait for his little date tonight.
After the diner, Robert manages to lure you from the restaurant. He has your arm in an iron grip. At first glance it was as if you clung onto him. But the look on your face told a different story. Youâre his hostage, currently in the middle of being kidnapped by a serial killer.
Your fight or flight mode kicks in when he drags you into a nearby ally way. This time around you werenât tied down and put on display. Since then, you gained a will to fight. You scream at the top of your lungs, twisting around to land a few punches against his chest. To your surprise he hasnât moved. Not even the slightest. It was as if he were made of solid concrete. Either that or this wasnât his first struggle.
Now Robert considers himself a patient man. But right now, you were being a complete cunt. He swiftly faces you and snarls, âStop.â only to be slapped across the face. Thatâs it. He has you back flush against his front. A chiseled arm grips around your neck, making it harder and harder to breathe by the minute. Your nails dig deep into his pale skin.
Robert hisses slightly, but overall isnât fased from your futile attempt. Sooner than later your vision blurs. Your lungs ache for air. This was it. You thought to yourself. He would finally finish the job. Your arms finally drop, embracing the darkness. Once again, the iceman had you in his hold, carrying you off to God knows where.
Throughout the entire car ride had been filled with flashbacks from that night. You could practically feel Robertâs breathing right at your ear as your body began to warm up. Although you couldnât see anything from that night, the rest of your senses had remembered it in vivid details. Every single detail of what had happened. Your visions came in sparks. His taunting echoed in your head,
âMiss Iâm too good for any man, but your pussy works just like a street whoreâoh fuck!â he groans. Your back was to his broad chest. His hips buck up, aiming right against your core each time. When he shoves you back down his fingers graze your creamed in folds. He coats a digit with your arousal before flipping you face down against the mattress.
It was a tingling sensation. A familiar throb returns to your loins. It was pleasurable, as much as it was painful.
He spits against your tight ring before pressing his thumb against it. Robert pushes the digit in. You cry out from yet another opening being violated. His fingers grip your rear while his thumb sinks in and out of your tight hole. He starts to thrust in faster until the friction of his spit against your muscles creates a loud, squelching sound. You groan from the uncomfortable intrusion.
His hands would roam anywhere they could reach. He was everywhere, and there was nothing you could do about it.
Robertâs going to have to need more lubrication if heâll want to make it easy. But he doesnât want to. Instead, both of his hands clutch onto each of your cheeks as he separates them. He collects saliva in his mouth before spitting at your opening. He adds two more fingers in. Your whines turn into sobs as the monster had his way with you. After a while of stretching, he removes his digits with a âpopâ. You let out a shaky sigh, it was over for now.
Thatâs when you felt something. Was it another plug? No. It was warmer, thicker, and trying to push itself in. As soon as you realize heâd been preparing for another round your heart sinks. You twist and turn, not wanting to feel the once again, âNo! No please I donât want it please!â you sob. When the waterworks started it shot straight to his dick. He loves getting you all riled up.
Robertâs strong arms trap you underneath him. You were especially loud when he shoves his entire length in. If you screamed that loud from just that, who knows how long youâll last in the next few rounds. He chuckles, âOh baby, weâre just getting started.â he slams his hips forward, hard. Admiring the way youâd shrivel underneath him.
He just loves teasing you.
You jolt from the nightmare. Realizing now that history might repeat itself. You could feel the vibrations of the van driving. Counting carefully how many times it would turn, for how long the drive was, and how many times it had stopped. From the friction of the tires with the ground below you could tell he wasnât driving on smooth road anymore.
He makes one last turn before stopping completely. Youâve made it to your final destination. Robert opens the side of his van from outside. Immediately you lay still in a sleep-like facade. He holds an ankle in each of his hands. He pulls them until youâre halfway out the door. Your skirt rakes up your hips. Now wasnât the right time to adjust it.
Why had he stopped moving?
Robertâs gaze is fixed on the cotton covering your mound. His eyes squint in admiration from the way it tucked slightly into your crevice. He tugs again until your lower half starts to fall out of the vehicle. But something saved your fall. It had rested in between your legs. When his hands pull up the sides of your hips you realize what position he held you in.
His hard on is pressed firmly against your mound. Only thin layers of fabric shield you from any intrusion. Robertâs hand strokes smoothly against the side of your hip, giving it a slight squeeze. He refrains himself, âNoâŠnot now.â he grumbles. You knew what that meant. Whatever Robert had planned you knew it wouldnât be good. At least in your case.
You knew there were only two options: Fight or flight. Since youâve already chosen fight and the outcome wasnât in your favor the next option would be to make a run for it. But now wasnât a good time. Not with your hands bound and sight absent. Your only focus now was to make it back home in one piece. You would wait until his guard was down to escape. He carries you through the threshold of his slaughterhouse. Not too far from where heâd parked the van. Youâd hoped that the keys were still inside. Robert lays you out on a mattress. Thatâs when your breath finally hitches in panic.
âOh good, youâre awake.â
You hear his steps approaching, the jig is up. He reaches in to grab a hold of your hair then yanks it. If your hands werenât tied back you wouldâve given him a good clawing. Robert removes the blindfold, âThere we go,â you wince for a second before your vision adjusts to the lighting. This was the place. Everyone called you crazy when you told them the story of how a mysterious man had kidnapped you. No one believed you. But after three long years the evidence was right in front of you. It was him.
Robert pulls you up by the rope binding your arms together, âDonât even think about running. Iâll break your legs before youâve even make the first fuckin step.â he snarls. He unties the rope then proceeds to his van, âI brought you someone, to keep you company.â He slides open the side door of the vehicle. He turns around, smiling triumphantly after revealing who else was in the car. It was good to give a scare every now and then. It keeps people in their place. Where he wants them. Your blood runs cold at the sight. You turn to him, now on your knees and beg, âPleaseâŠplease noâŠoh godâplease donât..â

You turn to Robert with glossy eyes. Rambling for mercy. That bastard already took everything from you. But it still wasnât enough. A small hand taps your shoulder, âMama?â you turn around and face your boy. For how long had Robert known? How the hell did he get past the babysitter? That means he knew where you lived. He knew much more than he would tell. That alone made him all the more dangerous.
Robert reaches for the child but before he could lay even a single hand on him you slap it away. Youâre quick to pull your boy in a tight hug, âDonât you dare touch him!â you wrap his tiny arms around your neck. He pokes his head over your shoulder to look at the man behind you. Robert flashes him a grin and winks. Your son rubs your back in circles like how you would do for him for comfort, âItâs okay mama, the Ice cream man helped me! He promised me heâd find you.â
The Ice cream man? You stare at him in confusion then in sheer horror. Now realizing what he had meant.
It all made sense now. How it all started.

No one believed you when you told the police you had been abducted, in broad daylight of all things. Instead, your so-called âcaringâ family and friends suggested seeking help from a specialist. You had spent months in a psyche-ward where youâd tell them the same story. How you were having a regular day then all of a sudden everything went dark.
Each time theyâd ask if you were on a psychedelic, if youâve had a history of drug addiction, or if there was a family history of mental disorders. Since the entire investigation was a lost cause. There was nothing that couldâve been proven. Every session ended with a new prescription written without a second thought. You had an entire pharmacy in your bathroomâs cupboard alone. You didnât need pills! What you wanted was justice for what happened to you. What this monster did to you.
âThatâs right, son.â Robert added an emphasis on âsonâ. His shadow hovers over the two of you, âYou are incredible. My little partner in crime.â he taunts.

He comes closer and you back away slowly with an arm guarding your boy. Robert cocks his head to the side. He grabs an arm and yanks you up effortlessly, âYour mom and I need some alone time. Beat it squirt.â he winks at the child.
Your son only looks up between both of his parents. Being the good boy that he is of course he would follow an adultâs orders. Such a polite child you raised him to be. He really is, too kind for his own sake. He sits himself in the same seat that Robert had placed him on earlier while waiting patiently for you.
Robert closes the side door of the van shut. He curls his finger in a âcome hitherâ motion. Youâre almost hesitant to approach him. But do so anyways in fear of what he would do to your boy if you didnât. He chuckles, âLook at you being so obedient for me.â It was time for him and you to catch up on a few things, âThe kid told me his nameâs Andy.â He gives a small nod and pouts his lips, âNot bad. But I like the sound of âJuniorâ more.â he doesnât bother smothering it in your face, âBut I guess itâs too late to change that now. Oh, and we need to do something about his last name.â
No that wasnât alarming at all. You cut to the chase, âPleaseâŠjust..what do you want from us?â
âWhat? Iâm not allowed to see my own kid? Donât be so cruel honey.â he leans in, âThatâs my job.â he winks before turning back to the car. Robert opens the door for Andy. He tilts his head towards him, âHey kiddo why donât we play a game?â he jerks his gaze back to you. He makes sure to look youâre paying close attention. His icy blues stare back at your now round orbs. Just what did he have in mind? He pulls out a blindfold, âIf your mom listens to me carefully and follows the rules, then Iâll show you guys a surprise.â
Andy claps his hands together, âA surprise?!â he canât hold his excitement. His short legs spring up and down with glee. You donât dare keep your eyes off of him. Not even for a second until Robert blinds you with the fabric.
Once again you find yourself blindfolded and led around his abandoned warehouse. You almost drip on your way up a flight of stairs. Wherever you were it was roomy. He leads you through his elaborate warehouse. He has you take a flight of stairs up. Robert keeps a hand around your waist the entire time. That made it all the more uncomfortable.
Finally the two of you stop walking. From what you could hear it sounded like Robert was pulling out some keys. He unlocks a door then shoves you in. Before you could even stand heâs there, holding the back of your neck, âStayâŠâ you follow his orders. On your knees in front of him, âGood girl.â he strokes the side of your head.
Right now you have no choice but to bite back your pride. You couldnât take any risks. Not now. Not with your boy in danger. Robert leaves the room. Shutting the door behind him. All you wanted to do now was make sure your son was safe. He was the only good thing to happen to you. Andy was a good kid. Too precious for a world like this.
As soon you hear the door shut close you reach for the cloth blocking your sight. It was still the same pitch darkness all around. You were unable to even see your hands hod. Your legs are wobbly from being blinded by the lack of light.
Moments later the door opens again. It was Robert, holding Andy in an arm while the other flicks the light switch. Robert leans down for his son to hop off. His short legs rush towards his mother. He throws himself into your arms. You inspect his small frame for any bruises. Not even a scratch had been laid on his little head. Would such a sick man be capable of doing such harm to his own child? It was a question you didnât want to answer.
You curse yourself for not leaving town when you had the chance. Your breathing hitches from thinking about what this man would have planned.
You remember your time spent at the hospital. Your âbelovedâ family members decided it would be best to enroll you in. With or without your consent. After spending months in the ward with nothing to back up your story the truth finally prevailed. You had finally found your evidence. It only took a small amount that had been growing this entire time.
After a few fainting spells the nurses had you examined. In that moment of truth your heart sunk. From then on you would spend hours looking out your room window while clutching your swelling belly. Unknowing of what fate had in store.

Was it all just a cruel joke on you?
First the loss of your parents, then your friends, followed by your job, and now your body. With the inheritance your parents had given you there was no need to work. Not in your condition. Right now you were still very much broken, and so very afraid. For your own wellbeing and for the new life arriving. You would spend most of your free time staring out a window. Awaiting for your due date.
As soon as a nurse had placed Andy in your arms you fell instantly in love. He was wrapped up like a present. He looked helpless. Innocent. He needed someone as much as you did. You made a vow that day, to protect him at all costs. If it meant sacrificing yourself, then so be it.
Even if you couldnât take it anymore.
Tears trickle down your cheeks. Your hands swipe them away. Andy notices youâre in distress immediately, âYou okay mama?â hearing his gentle voice snaps you back into reality. You blink twice before answering, âYes baby.â you raise your arms and reach for your son, knowing that sweet Andy is always eager for a hug. He chimes in, âYouâre gonna be okay mama.â
âOh babyâŠâ you brush the back of his soft hair, âI hope soâŠâ

Arranged Marriage AU: Dark!Tommy Shelby x Wife!Reader
Warning(s): Kidnapping, Physical harm, Physical assault.
Author's note(s): We see it all unwrapping!
Tension rises within the Shelby family, and your husband is to blame for it all.

Tommy drags you into the living room. Where the rest of his brothers await. Finn is seated. Your eyes widen from the sight of his bruised and battered form. A cut lip, complimented with a black eye and small bruises that littered his body. There was a firm handprint right against his throat. As if someone had him pinned down. You were all too familiar with the feeling. There was no doubt that this was Tommy's doing. You could practically hear your blood boiling. Your maternal instincts kicking in as you saw red.
You twist out of your husbandâs grip and rush towards the young boy, âFinn! What have they done to you?!â Your hands cup his face, causing him to wince in pain. He tries not to squirm in discomfort, âSâalright mâfineâŠIâm sorry I couldnât help you...â he looks away in shame, defeat. Your heart breaks for him. Your hand combs through his hair cooing him, âNo, you didnât, it was bound to happen,â you turn around and make your way towards Tommy. You were tired of hiding, Tired of being silenced, Tired of smiling through the hell that he had put you through. You choose not to be afraid of him anymore. Enough was enough. No more. Because now? You were fucking fuming, âYouâŠâ
âHello dear.â He replies nonchalantly. Keeping a straight posture.
âYou bastard!â you shrieked.
âNice to see you tooââTommyâs head swings to the side from the slap heâd received. You grab him by the back of his neck, Like the many times heâd done to you and growl, âYou couldâve done something to me for running off, but instead you had to take it out on Finn! Like a fucking coward!!â you bark at him. He turns his head around. Your backhand was much stronger than he'd expected. A faint trickle of blood drips from his nose. He swipes it with a finger to examine, âNot too bad...could be betterâŠâ judging your strike.

You hissed in his face, âThen fight back!" you slap his chest, "Fight back like you always do!â your voice begins to break, âOr is it because you donât want your family to know? How much of a monster you were to me?!â
He pulls your wrists together. It was futile to retrieve them back. Tommy held you close, âIâm not going to fight you.â his voice is softer.
âWhy not?!â you spat.
âBecause you wouldnât last, not in your condition,â as soon as he glances down your blood ran cold. Tommy had finally found your little secret. His eyes are glue to your belly, âFor how long?â he reaches to caress the faint bump. You look down at his hand now resting against it and bit your bottom lip, âSince the last time we went to the Garrison,â
More specifically the same night he had dragged you out of the bar in front of everyone. Soon after firing his gun. Watching the people scatter through the streets, like sewage ratsâŠit made your stomach twist.

Tommyâs voice breaks the flashback, âWhy didnât you tell me?â his voice is soft. His eyes show a genuine concern for your well being. You tell him your complete and honest truth,
âI was scared you didnât want it, because it was obvious you didnât want me, and youâre only now treating me different because Iâm carrying your child...howâŠâ tears began to welt, streaming down your cheeks, ââŠHow could you be so cruel to me?â you sob. Tommy pulls you into his chest. You bury your face into his coat.
He felt a guilt like no other. He knew he had only himself to blame for everything that had happened, âI have not been a proper husband, and I understand why you would want to leave, being the circumstances that I put you throughâŠand Iâm sorry...â his hands cup your face. His thumbs glide against your wet cheeks. Your face scrunches as you slap his hands away, âThen whyâd you hurt Finn?! He was only trying to help me!â
Finn scratches the back of his head, âWellâŠactually I sort ofâŠstarted it, as soon as they asked me, I started raining hell on 'em,â it was during the morning after. Tommy had plans to spend all day with you and Charlie. How long had it been since heâd slept that well? Too long for him not to remember. But to his surprise, heâd awoken to his wife missing. Part of him hoped that you were probably downstairs in the kitchen preparing for breakfast as you usually would.
No matter how often the maids would offer to help you refused. This was the one thing you had to yourself. He didnât mind. It was adorable seeing you so focused on perfecting a meal instead of a tart. When Tommy arrived at the kitchen, he expected you to be seated already with breakfast done. However, you were nowhere to be found. All of the maids were gone as well.
At that instance Tommy knew there was something wrong, very wrong. He searches every room calling, yelling for your name. By now you were probably long gone. He picks up bits of his scattered clothes. Time was scarce. Every minute mattered. Tommy rounds up his best men, not to search but to interrogate. There was no way an enemy couldâve gotten this close to his house. Not without him knowing. Someone had betrayed him, heâs sure of it.
He finds out who when his brothers arrive. One of them is suspiciously late, Finn. When the younger Shelby arrived at the house he isnât as alert as he usually is. In fact, heâs quite relaxed. Tommy knew it had all been an act. He stands right in front of him. He reads the younger boy like a book. What gave it away were his shoes. Finn had gotten new shoes a few days ago. In what situation would a young lad refuse to wear them? If theyâve been ruined. Finn must have been out last night during the storm.
Tommyâs hands ball into fists, he snarls in his face, âIâm only going to tell you this once Finn: Where. Is. She?â a storm was brewing inside Tommy. Finn remembers your promise. He remembers the way your lip quivered with fear of failing. He flashes his older brother a grin before tackling him to the ground.
But Tommyâs strength eventually surpasses his, the elder Shelby flips him over, holding Finn by the throat. Finnâs fingers dig deep into his arm but nothing would avail. John and Arthur have to pry them from each other. But like any other Shelby, Finn doesnât go down without a fight. He gave it his all but against three soldiers. Only for it to end as a lost cause.
You smack his arm then pinch his ear, âThatâs for making me worry!â then embrace him in a hug. For a brief moment heâs confused if youâre still angry at him or not but then relaxes in your arms. He chuckles, âThe only reason why theyâre allowing me to be here was because I told him that if he didnât let me see you, Iâd rat him out to Polly,â
You raise a brow, âAnd he believed you?â
âNo, so I told him I already did,â He grins. You donât know what fate has in store for Tommy. All you could do is pray for her to listen to your side of the story. Itâs about time Thomas Michael Shelby dealt with the wrath of Ms. Elizabeth Gray. He knew at some point heâd have to tell her about theirâŠmarital problems. Him and his brothers had kept it a secret for far too long. Now everything had spiraled out of control.
He arrives to the church, the same one he had been married in, twice. Where heâll have to face the Shelby Matriarch. Tommy sits himself in the booth right behind her. He sighs, âShe wanted to leave me Polly,â his shoulders sink, âIâve changed, more than what I was willing to at first, thereâs no reason why she would want to leave now,â His fingers twitch in his lap, "I don't want to lose her,"
Polly turns around. Her temper had gotten the best of her. Slap after slap lands on her nephew. Her voice booms, âHave you gone mad?! Why does she want to leave?!â Echoing off the churchâs walls. Polly throws in a few good smacks at him. Someone has to. âYouâre a grown man Thomas, for fucks sake act like one! Stop relying on this poor girl to fix youâfix yourself for her! If you think you can just take and take from a good woman and expect her to be fine with it?! Youâre a damn fool!â Polly almost falls out of her seat. She catches her breath.

She held her nephew by the shoulders for balance, âIf any harm ever comes to that girl ever again, I will make sure to hunt. You. Down,â She huffs. Her expression changes to confusion when Tommy looks up, his eyes now glossed over, âHow can I fix this?â
âYouâre asking the wrong person,â Polly scolds before walking to the front to give a small prayer. As soon as she crosses herself, she promptly leaves, ignoring Tommy who now sulked all alone. After the war, he had almost lost all faith. After Grace had died, so had a part of him that believed there was something better. Then you came along. You, who had tried so hard to fix a broken man like him. What did he do to deserve a treasure like you?
For the first time in years Tommy decides to pray. He prays for only one thing: Your happiness. Whether it included him or not didn't matter.
Hidden Treasure (Part 8)
Arranged Marriage AU: Dark!Tommy Shelby x Wife!Reader
Warning(s): Angst, Fluff, Mentions of past domestic violence.
Author's note(s): Innocent heartfelt chapter (cue the fluff).
Your husband would have Finn either send messages to you, or simply keep an eye on your wellbeing. Although Finn hadnât a clue of what was going on, he knew you of all people didnât deserve this sort of treatment. He made sure to visit as often as he could for company.

You were grateful the moment Tommy finally let you out that dreadful basement. You hadnât forgotten the promise made a few weeks ago to Finn. To bake him a signature custard from your bakery. Heâd been dying to try. Soon, it became common for the youngest Shelby brother to stop by. He would either have a letter or message from Tommy. Most of them were if your husband would be late or earlier from work.
Youâd pack Finn some lunch before bidding him a farewell. Most of the time it was just you and Charlie in one big, empty house. To say that he was a sweet child was an understatement. He had the power to make anyoneâs cold heart melt. How could such a charming child come from a man like Tommy? You hadnât a clue.

Of course, you could never replace Grace. You werenât the one whoâd given birth to him. But Charlie was your son in every single way that mattered. There were even a few special moments youâd spend with the other Shelby family members. You especially enjoyed bonding with the women of the family. Teatime with Polly was a particular favorite. She would give you as much advice as a wise woman could. In a way, Polly became your second mother.
As you were setting up the table Polly had been bouncing Charlie on her lap. Finn decided to stop by since todayâs work was slower than usual, he choose to stay a little longer. Polly examines her finished tea. Her expression was confused at first, then startled. She shows Finn the cup, and it was as if he'd read something from it.

Polly letâs out a small sigh, âTell me my dearâŠâ she places her cup on the table, ââŠhas my nephew been treating you well?â

Youâre at a loss for words. How could you answer to her? Should you tell her the truth? How would she react? You made up your mind to keep it short and subtle, âTommy provides me with everything a wife may need. What more could a woman want?â you try your best to force a smile, hoping that it was a good enough answer.
But Polly was suspicious that something wrong within your marriage. She could sense it, âYou didnât answer my question dear, has he been treating you well?â her voice is sterner this time. You tense. Your heart races, âI-Iâm not sure what you mean...â you play off. Polly could tell that over the period of time since you've been married, the flicker of light in your eyes had disappeared. Blown out by the cold blues that followed into your nightmares.
At that point, Finn has had it. As soon as Polly leaves, he tells you of his plan, âTommyâs going to some event next week, and he wonât be back until the morning,â
âFinnâŠâ you warn. It wouldnât be a good idea breaking your husband's trust. A man like Tommy never forgets. Finn grumbles, âIâm sick and tired of seeing him treat you like--like the dirt on his shoes! The bloke!â his hands ball into fists. You donât think twice about his statement, in fact you understood completely why your new brother had the right to react like this. You sigh, reaching for his hands to hold, âCould you do me a favor?â
You were kept busy for the next few days, planning on yet another escape. Hopefully the last. Finn would send letters to your sister who lived in the next town. It had been quite a while since the two of you would communicate. Her and her husband had been busy since delivering their new baby.
So, it would take time to pack up their belongings before moving in with your parents. Finn would stop by the postal, on the way to wherever he was heading in order to avoid suspicion. For once it felt like everything was going your way.
As each day went by, you grew more excited to leave this place, once and for all. You let out your hair, made yourself more presentable, you even started smiling again. Tommy took note of how the corners of your lips would curl upwards on their own as you hummed a tune while making supper.
Heâd been silently observing you adjusting to your new life. After putting away the dishes, you hoist Charlie on a hip before leaving the kitchen. Tommy listens carefully to your footsteps leading up the stairs before following them. He stops in front of his bedroom door, reaching for the knob.

But before heâs had a chance to twist it open a faint sound of laughter erupts. He opens the door to spot you and Charlie on the bed. Your hands reaching to tickle the boyâs sides. Seemingly unknowing that your husband is witnessing the display of affection.
You hoist the toddler into the air. Tommy notices your expression. For the first time in months, you're actually smiling. It was like some sort of trance. He leans against the door frame. Seeing you with his boy felt, in a strange way, right. As if you both were meant to be. His son loves you. You drop Charlie onto your bosom to catch your breath.
Soft giggles manage to slip out of every exhale. Charlieâs hair tickles your chin so you tilt it to the side. Thatâs when you notice Tommy standing at the doorway. His posture is more relaxed than usual. For how long had he been standing there?
You look away from his gaze. It always did make you nervous. His fingers twitch, curling into his palms, âI uh...â he slides them into his pockets, âI want you to be my guest for an event,â Tommy looks up, waiting for an answer. You raise a brow and sit up, still holding the boy in your arms, âWhoâll watch over Charlie?â
âFinn offered to keep an eye on him.â of course.
âAlright,â you agreed, already knowing how it would play out. Tommy nods, âIâll be back, âbout three hours from now.â he checks his pocket watch. Double taking the time. You hadnât planned for him to take you anywhere. Itâll only delay your plans. But you couldnât risk him questioning his decision, âSure thing.â you return. Tommy looks as though he had one last thing to say, âAnd uh...wear something nice,â He turns away, leaving as soon as he came. Now that was odd.

Hidden Treasure (Part 9)
Arranged Marriage AU: Dark!Tommy Shelby x Wife!Reader
Warning(s): +18, Dub con, Nsfw, ANGST.
Author's note(s): Basically, Tommy being a sad little man trying to redeem himself.
You decided to wear all black for tonight, in honor of your dead marriage. Your dress wasn't fitted, instead you went for a gown that would drape down elegantly. One that would be easier to slip off. You lay your hair out in a bombshell wave with a bold ruby lip. This would be the last time Tommy would drag you to one of his pity parties.

You clink open your jewelry box and pull-out diamond earrings. Then came that choker Tommy favored out of your entire collection. He enjoyed tugging it from behind, admiring how the gemsâ shine against your skin. How it would glow in dim lighting. You try to hook the back of it on a few times. It was your mistake to do it while your hair was down.
âHere, let me.â itâs Tommy. He was earlier than usual. You look up from the vanity mirror and spot him approaching. A hand reaches to lift your locks out of the way. He guides you out of the car and into the car. opening the door before proceeding inside. While seated in the back, Tommy doesnât let go of your hand. Every now and then his thumb brushes the back of it. Heâs the first one out of the vehicle. Opening the door before youâve had a chance to as always. He held out his hand for you to take.
This time it was...different. Tommy had kept you close by him. He held an arm around your waist, not with control, but to seek comfort. He kept conversation with you, listening to what you had to say. Even offering to get you a drink. Tommy had given you a smile. A real, genuine smile with his eyes squinting. His grip around your waist is gentle, not a warning. You couldn't believe it. Was he actually enjoying your company?
Tommy leans in your ear, âWould you like a dance with me?â It was a question, not a command. He wasnât demanding but wondering if you were alright with it. For once, he was asking for permission. You hadnât danced with him since your wedding day. Tommy held out a hand for you to take. Slowly, but sure enough, you held it. During your first ever dance together it was Tommy who took the lead. This time around was different. He let you move around freely, so that the two of you were in unison, complimenting one another.
He spoke up, âYou look beautiful,â his voice sounding soft, sincere. That was a first. What on earth has happened to your husband? What made him in such a pleasant mood? You faintly whisper, âThank you,â Tommyâs thumb brushes against your side, âI want this to work, if you give me a chance, I promise you Iâll do better than what youâve had to deal with,â he looks you in the eyes. Is he serious? You avoid his gaze, âWhat do you want Tommy?â
âNothing, only you,â There it was. No...nonono he wasn't allowed to play with your heart. Not after the hell he'd put you through. You began to tear up, âNo, thereâs always a catch, otherwise you wouldnât be so nice to me,â The only thing that helped ease the awkward silence was the music playing. Tommy sighs, âI know, I havenât been there like I shouldâve. You donât deserve to be treated likeââ
âLike your personal whore?â you scoff, âThatâs what everyone else thinks,â
Tommyâs heart aches. Of course, thatâs how youâd feel after his constant disregard for your emotional well-being. He wouldnât be surprised if you hated him, or even wanted nothing more than to see him dead in a ditch. It's not the first time someone felt that way towards him. It certainly wouldn't be the last. He pulls you in closer, âYouâre mine, and Iâm yours, thatâs it, fuck what everybody else has to say, I want is for you to be happy,â It was as if he were an entirely different man. This was not the Tommy Shelby you married.
This was a different side of your husband. One that you hadnât known until today. Later that night, he actually wanted to keep you close him. He made you feel important, wanted, special. When you reach the house, you were still on high alert. Perhaps he'd already found out about your plan. Your feet are swollen and throbbing. Itâll all be worth it once your plan works. If itâll work this time. Tommy undresses for the night. His eyes then motion to your dress, âDo you need me to leave or-â
âNo, itâs fine, really,â you start to undress yourself. Tommy couldnât help but stare. You could feel it, âWhy are you looking at me like that?â
âLike what dear?â
âLike youâre going to eat me...â
âDo you want me to?â he playfully smirks. Your eyes widen for a moment then avoid his gaze. As if you were thinking about it for a moment before your head nods in approval. Tommyâs smile falters. His eyes are now hooded with lust. He strides to the bed where you sat. Heâs seated right beside you. Holding your hands in his. He reaches in to caresses your jaw before placing a gentle kiss on your lips.
He pulls back momentarily then begins to deepen it. He slowly drags the top of your dress down to test the waters. A gentle squeeze on your breast gave you a small jolt of pleasure, whining from the sensation of your now tender breasts. He stops immediately, âSâalright love, no need to be shy at this point, hm?â was that a joke? You couldnât tell. He lays you out on the bed, removing his shirt in the process. Revealing a semi-fresh tattoo of what appeared to be your name right on top of his heart.

Your nerves always seem to get the best of you. Youâre frozen and unable to move. Tommy looks up to see your petrified expression. His hands rub up and down your legs to help ease your mind. It didnât. Heâll have to try and sink you slowly into comfort. To your surprise, he buries his head underneath your dress.
You pull your skirt up to reveal his blue gems looking up at you, with a pink tongue poking out of his gaping mouth. He presses the muscle against your slit as he laps at it hungrily. He traces it along your opening a few times, raising his head to give attention to your throbbing clit. Within a few seconds youâre already giving in. Your knees begin to weaken. They go lax as he laps away vigorously against your most intimate parts.
Tommy flattens his tongue a few times before dipping it inside. His nose rubs against your bud. He grinds his face against your sex. Moaning from the lewd act. He takes your clit into his mouth and sucks, hard. Youâre practically melting in his embrace. Tommy eagerly laps you through a hard orgasm. Shutting his eyes to focus solely on his duty of making you cum.
You find yourself riding against his face shamelessly. In the blissful aftermath, you could feel his lips press a smile against your soaking core. Tommy raises his head. His mouth and chin glistens, âYou alright love?â his deep voice is...calming, soothing even. He reaches to brush back a stray hair behind your ear. You nod and whisper a faint, âYes,â for reassurance, reaching in to touch his scarred abdomen, âI want to touch you, please TommyâŠâ
He held your hand in his, guiding it towards his manhood. He wraps your palm around his member, stroking it against his shaft, âLike thisâŠâ after a few seconds he lets go. His hand reaches in to caress your folds. His digits tease your bud to your liking. Everything about it was sensational. A sparking interest between the two of you. Two souls combining into one being.
Tommy lets out a deep grunt before painting your mound with his arousal. His hand moves faster to chase your climax and soon you were moaning underneath him. He leans in to kiss you softly. Then again but deeper. You tilt you head up eagerly. He held his leaking tip against you bud, rubbing once, twice, then a third time against it, before sinking himself in.
Your mouth gapes from the sensual stretch deepening. Tommy hisses, his eyes flutter shut. Your open arms are his very own paradise on earth. They wrap around his upper torso as soon as he begins to pick up speed. Soon enough the both of you were became a panting mess. Calling for each otherâs names. He takes his sweet time. Kissing, caressing, whispering sweet nothings to soothe his wifeâs worries away.
Tommy dips his head into the crook of your neck to place a kiss before tilting against the side of your temple as he whispers, âI love you,â into the shell of your ear. He didnât care if your feelings were mutual or not. He wanted you to know how he felt. Gestures like this from him were rare you knew that much. So why did you seek refuge in his arms every single time?

Easy Money (Part 3)
Dark!Robert Pronge (Mr. Freezy) x Heiress!Reader
Warning(s): +18, Minor Character death,
Author's Note(s): This is a brief filler for the upcoming chapters. I wanted to go into depth of how Robert finds the reader after three years.
Robert makes plans to meet with his previous employer. Heâs doing this because he needs some extra cash on him. Thatâs all.

âWhy did I even bother hiring you if you canât even get the damn job done!â the man spat. Robert keeps his calm. He doesnât know how long itâll take until his patience runs out, âListen man. I just need to know where she is.â his hands are raised signaling defeat, he shrugs âWhat can I say the video became a hit, the fans want more.â he plays it off. But the other guy doesnât buy it, âSo find some other bitch to do it. She ainât even around no more.â he chuckles. Robert pauses for a moment. He looks the older man dead in the eyes, âWhat do you mean?â his voice low. His expression now serious.
Robert wants answers from this man and he wants them now. His former employer is started to get annoyed by Prongeâs pestering, âI mean the bitch is gone is what the fuck I mean. She ainât around here no more. Dropped everything then disappeared. No oneâs seen her since.â
Shit. He had a feeling something like that wouldâve happened, âYou donât think she put herself out do you?â maybe he had been too harsh on her. He did get a little carried away. But who wouldnât? Her pussy tasted like heaven. Her cunt felt like home. He realizes now that heâs way too invested when he notices the other manâs stiff body language, âAfter what you did I wouldnât blame her, and why the hell do you care?â
âItâs only an assumption. Donât get it twisted.â Robert knew he was hiding something. He just needed to get an answer out of him. Robert could tell he was bluffing as soon as he chucked, âIâll find someone else to get the job done. Put a bullet in that bitchâs head.â that would soon be a mistake heâd soon regret. Robert looks him up and down. He smiles briefly then begins striding towards his van. When he starts his engine. The man suddenly pulls out a gun and points it at him. He thought fast but Robert thinks faster.
Pronge stomps on the pedal, driving the van forward. Heâs had enough charades. His glasses fall off the bridge of his nose from the impact. He slowly backs his car up from the victim. He parks his vehicle. Sliding his glasses back in place before stepping out. He walks to the man now leaning against the wall. To his surprise the poor bastard was still alive. With both of his legs now broken, An elbow pokes out from his torn skin, he was coughing up an impressive amount of blood. He was still alive. Suffering immensely, but alive.

âYou donât look so good bud.â Robert tilts his head whole smirking playfully, âSomeone should put you out of your misery.â he playfully pokes the manâs crooked nose, causing a stream of blood to pour out of his nostrils which made it harder for him to breathe. All the man can do is wheeze and gasp with his punctured lungs. Robert whistles, impressed by his determination to survive. He sits a hand on the side of his bruised neck, âHere. Let me help.â his hand clutches the manâs jaw and jerks his head around.
A loud crack echoes through the garage. Robert stands up. He inspects the man for any sign of life. Yup, this guy was most defiantly dead. He bends down to scoop the body in his arms, âAlright work with me buddy.â he huffs before hoisting the body over his shoulder. Into the freezer he went. He retrieves the dead manâs wallet. Heâll have to search his place for any clues that would give him a lead.
When Robert arrives at the manâs run-down apartment there was barely anything left. No addresses, no phone books, not a trace of someone ever living here. Heâll give the man some credit where itâs deserved. This guy was good. Robert searches the bedroom for anything out of the ordinary, making sure not to leave any fingerprints. He finds something in a large dressing cabinet. A shoe box hidden in the bottom drawer. Itâs old and worn down. He pulls it out carefully.
He opens it with gloves finding dozenâs of womenâs panties bagged and labeled neatly. There were all sorts of them. Some ranged from a larger size, to medium, to borderline-worrisome small, now he really doesnât regret running him over. Robertâs takes a brief trip down memory lane. He remembers the color, what type. He pulls them carefully out of the plastic bag, the faint scent of beer had still been there. He chuckles after noticing his ex employer hadnât bothered to wash them. That kinky son of a bitch.
Pronge almost feels embarrassed knowing exactly what they looked like even after all these months. They were a cotton lace set cause she was a classy bitch. A good girl at heart. He remembers the way it would wrap perfectly around her. How she was wrapped perfectly around him. He reads the name. First and last. Finally, he was getting somewhere. But that was about it from what he could find. At least he knew now where to start.
From only her last name alone he found out a brief bit of family history. Her parents were local business investors who died in a car accident. In one night she went from a socialite heiress to the sole inheritor of their empire. But as of lately she was currently missing. Robert wasnât convinced she was truly gone from the face of the earth. She mustâve been in hiding. He was sure of it.
After a few weeks of following her old schedule he was at a loss. She hadnât made contact with anyone in particular from her old job or friend group. He would drive around her neighborhood daily. Nothing. As if she packed up all her belongings and vanished. He finds himself back at square one again, returning to his role as the notorious Iceman.
2 years later
Summer has returned once again. Robert parks his van underneath a busy bridge. Itâs rush hour, the cars drowned out any noise that could be heard from where he hid.

He shifts his seat back for more space. He drags the zipper of his body suit down. Revealing his scarred chest as he pulls out his length. His tip is red and leaking. Itâs his fifth time today. His fingers are still a bit pruned up from earlier. He licks his lips before giving his tip a teasing rub. A hand wraps around it while imagining a pair of lips. He pumps his shaft until heâs at a decent pace.
But it wasnât not enough, Robert craved for more. He longed for the warm feeling of a tight cunt holding him. He wanted to hear to the sounds of a woman whimpering. To taste the saltiness of her tears. All while looking into her eyes. He wishes for a chance to see them, this time without a blind fold. He massages his member harder now. Imagining the sight of her slick arousal dripping down her thigh andâŠ.shit!
Robert finishes himself off with a few spurts. It wasnât as good at the few earlier but at least his urge died down for now. Even after an intense round he still feels as though it hadnât been enough to satisfy his urges. He wanted more. He wanted to listen to the sounds that escaped those puffy lips. Not this annoying bitch in the back, âWill you shut up? Iâm trying to jerk off and youâre seriously killing my mood.â he tosses an empty beer can at his victim.
Thereâs a woman in the back he had taken earlier. She screeches louder from the box holding her. Robert rolls his eyes. If he knew she would be this much of a pain he wouldnât have taken the job. He grabs a few tissues to clean his shaft before getting up. He strides to the back of his van. As soon as the woman hears him approaching she begins to scoot away frantically. He looks her up and down, the first thing he noticed were her tits. They werenât too shabby for implants. Her husband told him he could do whatever he wanted. But those were to be returned to him.
He sighs, âYâknowâŠâ he pauses, âThis couldâve been avoided this if you hadnât slept with the pool boy.â he shakes his head, Robert crouches down, âI mean you kinda did this to yourself. Marrying into the mafia and all.â each of his feet are by her small rib cage. Sheâs frantic. He removes her blindfolds to reveal her now smudged makeup. Her lashes batted with thick clumps of mascara, âP-pleaseâŠyou have it all wrong Iâd never cheat on my husband! H-heâs a good man!â she wails.

Robert physically cringes from her high-pitched squeals. He places a finger on his lips to shush her. He retrieves a photo from his back pocket. Pictured is the woman with her eyes blissfully shut as she gave oral to a much younger man. Her pool boy-toy. Not her husband. Robert waves the photo in her face, âThis is you right?â thereâs a pause after. That was all the proof he needed.
She shakes her head side to side. Her bombshell curls bounce with each movement. She begins to bawl again, âPlease! I-Iâll make an offer! I know who works for him andâand what him and his men do, where their locations are. Iâll never show my face in this town again just please donât kill meâŠit was a stupid mistakeââ
âSeveral times? I mean câmon itâs like you wanted to get caught.â he swiftly turns around towards an ice cream box, âand if you were wondering yes I did kill the little runt.â He ducks down to get a better reach for a tool. He didnât feel like cleaning them up today so he came up with a tool thatâs easy to dispose of. He pries open his cooler and pulls out a sizable ice pick. He walks over to her and straddles her thin waist. In her final moments the woman screams at the top of her lungs for him to stop.Â
Robert wastes no time jabbing it straight into her jugular. She begins to choke on her own blood. Her vision blurs from the amount lost in a short amount of time. She twists and turns a few times, spreading crimson on the plastic sheet below. Her beady eyes roll to the back of her head. His palm pushes the rest of it down until it pokes a hole through the other side of her neck. She sure as shit wasnât alive by now. He tosses the body into an icebox for later. If the rest of her wasnât filled with botox and plastic heâd sell it off.
Robert changes out of his work clothes and into his daytime uniform. Adjusting his bow tie before starting the day. He sits back in his seat, tapping fingers on the stirring wheel. He turns the vehicle on and starts driving. As soon as his ears pick up the sound of children laughing he switches on his music. A catchy tune plays for all to hear. To let the children know the ice cream man is near.

As soon as the last child is given a cone he shuts his window closed. He steps out to take a smoke break. He closes his eyes after the first huff. He remembers how good it felt right after he took her. She was too cute, shaking her head as if she had done something wrong. He inhales another lungful of nicotine and breathes out. He smirks. In the end it was him who ended up being screwed over. A small price to pay over some quick cash.
He keeps his head low, avoiding any eye contact with civilians passing by. He never liked crowds. Robert only ever lonely with people around. Their faces were all a blur to him. Everyday brought another insignificant face heâll forget about by tomorrow.
But not hers. Never hers. He doesnât know why. Even after all this time.
Robert decides to walk to a local hardware store nearby. He peers into each store. Each had their own story. The first one he passed by was a ma-and-pa diner, the second one was a bar, the third was a thrift store. Thatâs when he notices a familiar figure. He stops in his tracks.
There she was. In all her glory. His girl. Although there were slight changes in the way she looked. Her hair was longer and braided to the side. Her figure was slightly fuller than before. There was more to grab. Just how he likes it. Robert knew it was her. He never forgets a pretty face.
In all those months of searching, he wouldâve never guessed youâd still be in town. That you would be thriving. Youâre wearing a sundress for the warm weather rapidly approaching. It clung to your more curvaceous form. He bites his lips while staring at the way your dress hung down your curvy figure. If he could he would stand there all day gawking at you working diligently.
No surprise in you getting fit from the work. You distributed the extra weight well. Your hips are wider now. His palms itch at the thought of grabbing them. You had a glow to your complexion since the last time he saw you. Then he sees you turn around to look for someone. He was gone before you had a chance to look out the window.
Robert makes it to his car, forgetting all about why he was there in the first place. He could care less. All he wanted to do now is have you coil underneath him again. Where you belong. He plans a visit the next day while in disguise. He had to be sure it was really you. He walks into the store with his head low. He pretends to look through items on racks. He glances up every now and then to see you folding a sweater.
Pronge picks up as much randomized items as he could, enough to keep you busy. When he reaches the front you greet him with a smile. A genuine smile. Not like the ones in the photos he had. However your eyes told a different story. They no longer belonged to a young naive girl but pieces of a broken soul still healing. Robert watches silently as you type away on the register. It was clear now, you had not a clue as to who he was.

Robert knows now this wonât be the last encounter heâll have with you. It was time for planning. He had rented a different vehicle for scoping around. You were constantly proceeding with precaution everywhere you went. Always making sure youâd never be left alone or at least taking certain safety measures. You were so confidant that your car keys placed carefully in between you knuckles would protect you. From what? You live in the suburbs. Unless there was some serial killerâOh, thatâs right. How funny.
Robertâs legs are perched up on the dasher of his van. He watches you from afar approaching your car. He waits a minute before starting his engine and follows you. After a few minutes of driving he knew where he was heading. It wasnât a richer providence but nonetheless a white picket-fenced area. Emphasis on white.
Robert made sure to park his car a block away. He follows closely until youâve made it into your apartment building. With a quick lock pick heâs in. He keeps his head low in his baseball cap. He watches you walk into an elevator. He reads what floor you were headed on then rushes for the stairs. As soon as he makes it to your floor he looks around the corner.
From what he remembers the elevators should be there. Youâre already trying to unlock the door to your apartment. But someone from the other side opens it before you do. He holds his breath. He didnât expect you to have a roommate. You didnât have one in the past.
So just who was that?
Robert peaks from around a corner, waiting patiently for someone to leave. After a while the door finally opens again. A young woman leaves your apartment. She hauls her backpack over a shoulder before waving goodbye. Her apartment was down the hallway from yours. He flinches when he hears your door open again, âHey!â
Robert ducks behind a corner. He is sure heâd finally been caught. That is until he hears your voice again, âYou donât have to come tomorrow sweetheart. Mondays are a lot steadier.â you wave a goodbye to the young woman before finally shutting your door. She nods before carrying on. He makes a quick mental note to get rid of your little guard dog. Robert would have to visit the shop more often if he wants to get an accurate schedule. He is a man who is quite fond of details.
All he needed was a single week to collect enough data for his newest persona. He looks in the mirror in front of him. He needed a haircut. Also his beard would look more put together with a few trimmings here-and-there.

Robert knew what women wanted in a man. Most of them wanted someone neatly groomed, with a stable job and income. He would play the role of an eligible bachelor. It wasnât hard to grab a womanâs attention. He knew he was easy on the eyes. A few times it had gotten in the way of his work. But now he needed his looks as an advantage.
When he walks into your store heâs readier than ever. Robert struts right up to the register, âHey,â she looks up and waits for what he has to say, âI was wondering if we could maybe go out for a date?â
For a moment sheâs taken aback. Of course she would be youâre putting her on the spot. Time for a different tactic. A pity date, âYou know what, itâs alright if you donât feel comfortable. I mean Iâm a total stranger, and I donât want to seem like a creep. I understand if youâre not interested in a relationship at the moment. Thatâs fine. Iâm sorry for bringing it up especially at your workââ if he just keeps going at it sheâll feel bad.
Soon enough she cracks under pressure, âWait! I-Iâm sorry if I seemed a bit off Iâve just never been asked out before,â there it is, âIâve never even been in a relationship either. I shouldâve said something earlier. Sorry if it seemed like I was ignoring your advances. Itâs just that I donât even know your name,â she looks up. Nervous for what his answer would be. He has to bite back a laugh, the poor thing is too bashful to find words. He gives her time to muster up some courage, ââŠIâve got a busy scheduleâŠso Iâll close the shop early tomorrow.â that makes him smile, âRobert Pronge, Itâs a date, and dinnerâs on me.â

The two of you exchange numbers. Robert lets you know when heâll be arriving to pick you up. He sends you a playful wink before leaving. He wouldnât have to rely on any transportation which was a good thing. His van would be a dead giveaway. Today was the day. He had waited outside of the store, arriving ten minutes earlier with a bouquet in his hands. You happily take it from him. For once, in a fairly long time, it seemed as though everything was going well.
Robert considers himself a patient man. He doesnât however, have time for charades. If you were even a few seconds late for your date heâd barge in the store and just take you. He looks around to see if youâd call the cops on him yet. So far the coast was clear. Heâd never been so risky before. Then he sees you stepping outside. He felt almost hesitant to go out while being so exposed.

Now part of him wishes he had brought a pair of thick-framed glasses. He caught you walking out of the store after locking it. Itâs the little things he takes notice of. Like how youâd done your hair for him. From what he could tell your makeup was different as well. A sign that you wanted to be there. With him. You seemedâŠhappy. Excited even. How adorable.
Robert knows the steps from what his old man had taught him. Always offer a gal some flowers and an arm to hold. You crack a smile at his romantic gestures. Ever the gentleman. Your date goes just as planned. All of his answers are perfect. Too perfect. Which had you genuinely impressed by him. But that made it all a bit suspicious, âIâm sorry itâs just thatâI canât help but feel like I know you from somewhere..have we met before?â Robert couldnât hold back a light chuckle, âYou really donât remember me do you?â

This was too good. Heâd been waiting for the right moment to tell you. He might as well let you know the truth by now. He flings his arm over your shoulder until itâs gripping the side of your waist. You feel your nerves getting the best of you. Was this how dates were suppose to be? It was unusual having someone, let alone a man hold you like this after so long. Robert tilts his head towards your ear. His forehead presses against your temple. This was all too familiar. His voice is low, âIâm the same guy who locked you in his warehouse three years agoâŠâ he sighs. Tears begin to cloud your vision. NoâŠno not again!
You shake your head in disbelief. This isnât happening. This isnât real. It canât be. Robert nods while pouting his lips, âI couldnât stop thinking about this sweet pussy of yoursâŠâ he whispers, reassuring you that he is in fact, the man who ruined your life. Your eyes begin to prickle tears. He love it, the tears only rile him up, âOh keep doing that babyâŠyou look so pretty when you cry for meâŠâ Robertâs arms have a firm grip around your body before you get the chance to run away.
You try screaming for help but a hand shoots up to muffle your cries. He gives you a warning, âScream and Iâll kill everyone in here. Did you forget that I never back down from my word?â He finally releases his hand on your mouth. You didnât know what he had in store. You only want to go home, âPleaseâŠwhat else more could you want from meâŠ?â you whimper. Isnât it obvious? He only wanted your mind, body, soul..and in his words, âEverything.â
He finally found you. His little money maker.
