Beloved Bodyguard
“Why were her hands stuck together?
Leelah tugged on whatever was restraining them as she opened her bleary eyes. She struggled to lift her lids.
It felt like someone had glued them closed. When she finally got them open and looked down, her wrists were secured with some kind of tape, which also bound her ankles. She pulled against the binding, but there was no give to it. Her bound wrists and ankles were also tethered together by another piece of the sticky tape.
She couldn’t even raise her arm...s.
She lay on a bed in a room she didn’t recognize. Kidnapped! As the daughter of the most important man in the Free Worlds, this had been a threat and fear shrouding most of her life. Now it had actually happened, and she didn’t feel at all brave and clever as she’d always fantasized she’d be in such a situation.
If whoever was holding her hoped to use her as a bargaining chip, they were sorely mistaken. Leelah had talked with her father at length about the importance of the single versus the many.MoreLess
