Chapter Four
Akmal
“ Khalil, you stupid fucking imbecile! You let your cock lead you around by the nose and you have no idea what you have done. Your obsession with American women has gone too far this time. I’m ashamed to even call you my brother in law. Did you touch her?” Akmal looked back and forth between the two massive bodyguards and made a tutting sound when Khalil attempted to answer, “I didn’t ask you, Khalil.”
He directed his attention back to the bodyguards, “I realize that English is your second language but if someone does not answer me immediately, I am going to indulge my sadistic tendencies with a whip. The bodyguard never saw the swift movement of Akmal’s hand as he backhanded him but he tasted the blood that dripped from his now swelling lip.
“No —no one touched her.”
“Get her on the fucking aircraft and be careful, she needs medical attention but more than that I need her hidden in the palace until I figure out what to do.” Akmal swiftly turned and glared at the men, “Be careful!”
Akmal took a seat on the aircraft and awaited the men loading the woman up. Things had not gone as expected. The men had never counted on Akmal finding out what they had done, but they should have known that he would find out—Akmal never missed any details.
The only thing that Akmal was pleased about at this point was that somehow the idiots had managed to not get caught due to the fact that they had abducted the girl when she had snuck off the base for an evening walk. He could only assume that she felt that she would be safe staying near the barracks. He was certain that the girl could have never anticipated his brother in law being in the area where she was walking. This wasn’t the first time that Khalil had done something stupid due to his obsession with American women. It would be last though—Akmal would see to that…
Lady
I awoke to my own moans and hands running over my body. A sudden surge of adrenalin empowered me to fight back and then the prick of a needle. In a matter of moments a wave of calm rushed over my being and I listened as two men spoke English.
“She has a slight concussion due to being hit over the head. She needs rest, liquids , and supervision. I’m not even going to ask how this woman got here but according to the news she was abducted. Do you have any idea who this woman is and how famous she is? They are going to have the fucking American military searching for her. We don’t need this kind of heat.
Akmal ran his tongue over his teeth making a sucking noise with his mouth. It was a habit he had. He usually did it when he came to the conclusion of a thing, or when he was irritated. This time it was due to both.
“You insult my intelligence. I can assure you that I have done Intel on my little American prisoner. Do you suppose that I am going to release her? You are incorrect in your assessment of this matter. In my line of work I don’t expect to not be under scrutiny of the Americans. I have every intention of using her to my benefit. I pay you to be a Dr. not a business consultant—do your fucking job and go.
The Dr. shook his head as he left what medicines would be needed. “I want nothing to do with this, Akmal.” With that he made his way from the Palace.
I looked up in my drugged stupor and eyed the suited man who stood at my bedside. I would need a description when I escaped.
He stood at an approximate 6’ 1 with a lean build. He was dressed impeccably in a suit and tie. He had the standard Middle Eastern thick dark hair but it was pulled back in a pony tail and he wore a large diamond earring in his ear lobe. He stood looking at me as if he could read my thoughts. His black eyes raked over me as if he were undressing me with them. I watched as he licked his full lips and that is the last thing that I remember before I faded into a deep slumber due to the shot that I had been
