Chapter Six

BART

“You will tell me who your partner is Vic. Tell. Me. His. Name!” It feels like I’ve been at this for an eternity. Vic doesn’t seem to want to spill his guts, no matter what I threaten him with. I’ve already allowed the guys to rough him up while he’s tied to the chair. I’ve pulled out his fingernails one at a time with pliers, and now I was going to carve him up into tiny pieces. I should be feeling victorious, but knowing that Bliss was with him for a damn week, it didn’t feel like a victory. It felt hollow.

“That’s rich “partner,” he’d cut off my dick if I ever called myself that. Don’t you get it? I was his, he owned me, I was merely doing a job for him. You should thank me really, that asshole Derrick, well he won’t be spreading nasty rumors about anyone ever again.” What the fuck was he blathering on about, what the hell did Derrick have to do with any of this, was he behind it? I was more fucking confused than ever.

“Speak plainly, did Derrick put you up to this? Is he the one you are working for?” He starts to laugh at me, blood dripping down his face, and the fucktard is laughing at me. I lose it, I just start punching the fuck out of his face. I can feel his teeth bite into my knuckles, the pain is almost soothing.

“Yo Bart, I brought your knife.” Matt comes down the stairs as I’m wiping my hands off on my jeans. “I found some shit upstairs that might help us find out who he works for or with, or whatever.” Finally, something that might help, because whoever put this in motion needed to be taken out. Bliss needed to be safe; it was the least I could do for her.

“There’s nothing up there that can help you, he’ll own her soon, just like I did. Just thinking about that tight ass of hers has me hard, ah I see you didn’t know yet. See you might have had that sweet tight pussy first, but that ass, that ass is all mine, and after what I did to her so is the rest of her.” I want to kill him so badly, I’m breathing so hard through my nose, I think a blood vessel might explode. He’s lucky need him for information, but once I found out who sent him into Bliss’s life, I’d end him.

“You never owned her, you sick fuck, she’s always been mine, her heart has always been mine. Whatever taint you put on her will soon be forgotten; you will be forgotten.” Choosing to walk away to investigate what Matt found upstairs, Vic’s parting words hit me.

“I’ll never be forgotten because every time you look at her you’ll see my mark upon her, and every time she looks in the mirror she will see me on her body. She’ll be mine long after you kill me, and there’s not a damn thing you can do about it.”

“You know we could cut out his fucking tongue so we don’t have to listen to that shit.” Looking over at Matt as we make our way to the back of the house, I nod wishing I could do just that.

“We need answers, and even though it’s killing me inside to listen to his sick shit, I also need to know what happened. I doubt Bliss remembers everything, or that she’ll talk to me about it anytime soon. No, my friend I have a feeling that bastard just destroyed the one woman I’ve ever loved. Don’t look at me like that, I’m not afraid to admit I love her. Wait ‘til you find the one, that one girl that makes the ground drop out from under your own feet, you’ll fall just like I did.”

“Oh no, I’ve seen what happens to men when they love women, between your dad and mine. No thank you, you can have love; I’ll have lust. I hope he hasn’t destroyed yours though man, I think Bliss is stronger than we think. She survived that scumbag of a father she had, she can survive this.” I hope he’s right, I pray he’s right, shit I’ll beg if I have to for her to not be broken.

“Thanks man, and I hope you find that woman that makes you fall on your ass. Now show me what you found, I need to call Pops and find out how Bliss is doing.” He grunts, “Yeah, right”. Matt takes me into the only bedroom in the cabin, there’s a simple queen size bed covered with a plaid blanket, a small wooden side table, and a matching dresser. Pulling out the top drawer of the dresser, Matt gives me a stack of letters.

“They’re all addressed to Sir Dickwad down there, telling him exactly what he was supposed to do with Bliss. I only read the top letter, but Bart, it’s pretty creepy, even for me.” There were at least a hundred letters in the stack, I sat down on the bed as I began to read through them, starting with the most recent. It looked to be from right before graduation.

Vic,

You have her right where I want her. However, you still haven’t taken her ass like I told you. That needs to happen before she goes back to them. He can’t have her back until then, make it happen, or my punishment will be severe. Shortly, we’ll start looking for a place for you to live, you need to be able to stick with her. The final step of my plan will happen once she’s back in town, I’ll make sure to have the welcome wagon ready. I’ll call you in a few days with instructions for graduation.

“Fuck, I need to call Pops.” I pull out my phone so fast I drop it on the floor.

“What is it Bart? Who was writing him?” I ignore Matt’s questions as I pick up my phone and dial my father, when he finds out he’s going to lose his shit.

“Hey Bart, is it done?” My father’s voice was cold, void of emotion, that’s how I knew things were bad.

“How is she?” There’s silence on the line as I hear my dad shuffling around.

“Sorry, she’s sleeping I don’t want to wake her. She’s in bad shape Bart, that fucker carved.... he’s one sick son-of-a-bitch, just tell me he’s taken care of.” So that’s what he’d meant when he said he’d always be with her, my grip on the phone is so tight I’m afraid it’s going to break.

“Not yet Pops, we were trying to get information out of him. We found who he was in league with, apparently he’s been a plant since she went to school. He was supposed to gain her trust, then force her into service. It’s her father, he did this to her, he wanted her to be completely used by this sicko so she’d come work for him. We need to find him; his last letter says something about having the welcome wagon out for her when she got back.” I’m briefly aware of Matt cursing beside me when I say who it is.
