The Billionaire...?

I woke up in a grey bedroom, the sunlight beaming straight to my face. My first thought was how I got here, but the second was my motherly instinct that kicked away my first one. I looked at my growing stomach and sighed in relief as my beautiful baby was alright.

As I stood up I heard the door open and I saw at least five men enter. “U-Um, where am I?” I asked frightened. “First of all, let’s see how good you know yourself. What’s your name?”

“A-Alison Montgomery-I mean, Alison Biersack,” I speak. “Well, Alison, do you know who I am?” the tall man says as he approaches me and I get a better look at his face. “I-I am not sure… You look familiar,” I whisper.

He smirks evilly and bends down to my level. “Sweetheart, I am the one who killed your parents and I’ll be glad to kill your husband and your baby, just so you can have a normal life with me,” he said in his disgusting accent.

“Professor Mitchell?” I barely pronounce as I took an even bigger look at him. “That is correct, my darling,” he smirks. “No, please, no! Let me go, please, I beg you!”

“Sh,” he said kindly, cupping my face. “We will live together in peace and we’ll be happy! I can kill this baby for you, I’ll do it!” My instincts kicked in again and I put my hands on my bump. The door opened again, this time it shut harshly. “Hello, Alison,” a man, well built, probably forty years old, says.

“I’m Mike, Mitchell’s brother. I see rumors are true. You really are pregnant. How far are you?” he asks, helping me stand up. “U-Um, twenty eight weeks… that’s about seven months…”

“Well, do you know why we kidnapped you?”

“I-Is it because of Andrew?” I whisper his name as it leaves my lips. Mike smiled, pointing towards the door in signal to follow him out. “You will be used as bait for Andrew Dennis Biersack. He took away my company and ruined it so I’ll do the same to him.”

For a moment I was thinking what could’ve been so important to ruin a company, everyone falls to pieces eventually without even needing to be destroyed. “Why would you do it? I mean, I’m not exactly what you need, you need someone Andrew actually cares about. You’ve got the wrong person…”

“No, sweetheart, you’re exactly who we need. The baby is what matters to him as it will inherit the company, if it’s going to exist by then.”

“But it’s not even a boy, it’s a girl… he doesn’t care at all!” I scream, letting tears prickle to my eyes. Mike was shocked a bit and we stopped walking once we got to the balcony. “What do you mean he doesn’t care? You’re carrying his baby,” he asked in wonder.

I sighed, rubbing my stomach. “I don’t know. He just doesn’t care. All he wants is someone to inherit what’s going to be left. And he married me just so I could be under his protection. Not that he’s doing a good job…”

“Darling, I will still try. And until then, I’ll let you have all the freedom you want. You don’t seem like the struggling type,” he smiled. Although I was supposed to hate this guy, I kind of liked him. He wasn’t such a bad person like his brother. “I have one condition,” I speak. “I don’t want Mitchell anywhere near me,” I shudder after saying his name.

Mike nodded. “I know what he’s done to you. And I’m sorry you had to go through that… Shall I let thee free?” he asks jokingly. “I believe that would be wonderful, sir,” I play along and we end up laughing. “Thank you for not making me feel like a prisoner, although I beg you not to use me as a bait… he won’t come, he won’t save me and give you what you want…”

“I don’t want to do this, darling, but revenge is revenge. And I’m sorry I have to use such a nice girl to get it. Come, I’ll show you to your room.” As he said that, I felt a kick in my stomach. I gasped loudly and earned Mike’s attention as he had a worrying expression on his face. “There’s nothing wrong, just… my baby girl kicked for the first time…” I let a happy tear fall out.

He looked awkward and didn’t know what to do so I reached out my hand and looked at him as if looking for permission. He gave me his hand hesitantly and I put it on my stomach, to the place where Melody kicked. Mike and I waited for a few seconds until she kicked again and he looked shocked. “Did your baby just…”

“Yeah,” I breathe out. I was starting to like this guy as a friend, although he made his men kidnap me. “Come on now, you probably have to rest. I’m sorry again, for making you my source of getting Andrew. At first I wasn’t so fond of you, but you are a really nice person.”

“Likewise, Mike, likewise.”

I was led into a big room with white walls and wooden floor, a carpet right in the middle of the room. A bed was placed in the corner near a big window that had a beautiful view out. There was also a desk, a big closet and two sofas. “This is one really big room. Um, how long am I supposed to stay here?”

“As long as Andrew needs to get here,” Mike sighs. I realize he has my phone in his hands and he taps something on it and puts it to his ear. “ALISON, WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT LEAVING WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE?!” I hear as soon as the Mike puts it on loudspeaker. “Is this seriously your husband?” Mike asks, looking at me like an idiot. “What? Who are you? Where’s Alison?”

Mike turned back to my phone and smirked. “Andrew! My friend, how are you?”

“I don’t have time for this bullshit! Give me Alison, now,” Andrew tried to remain calm under all this pressure he was given. Mike hands me the phone and I didn’t know what to say… “H-Hi Andrew…”

“Alison, where are you?”

“I don’t know. I really don’t know… “

“Did this man hurt you? Who is he?” he asks. “His name’s Mike, you destroyed his company…” There was a small pause until Andrew continued talking. “Mike? Mike, what do you want?!” Andrew yells through the phone and I could imagine himself right now. “I want you to hand over all the money you took from me and return my life. I want it all back. Or Alison stays here.”

I took a look at Mike’s wrist and noticed a tattooed name, Erica. The name was written so nicely and it also has a nice ring to it. “What does Alison have to do with this?” Andy asks. “She is carrying your baby. Don’t you want them back?”

My eyes widen and dart up as I try to reach for the phone before Andy could reply. “Yes, I do want them back. When shall we meet? How much money do you want?” I froze in my spot, taking his words in. “I want my two billion dollars back. I’ll meet you tomorrow, in my old company building at noon. Don’t be late.”

With those words he ended the call and turned to me. “I told you he cares. Enjoy your night here, tell me if you need anything.” He threw me the phone and left the room as I called Andy and sat on the bed, rubbing my stomach. “Alison?” his raspy voice spoke. “Hey…” I breathe out, relaxing after hearing his deep voice.

“Are you ok? The baby?”

“Yeah… Melody is fine, don’t worry. We’ll see you tomorrow. Please tell Juliet I’ll need a talk with her after I come back,” I speak. “Of course. Hang in there, you’ll be alright.”

“Bye, Andy.”

“Goodbye, Alison.”
