The Maze (Atcom)
“Looking around her now, she realized the extent of his anger toward her. He was going to make her suffer.
And it scared her. The admission wasn’t easy, but now that she said it maybe she could deal with it.
She knew what he was capable of and God help them all. Especially Brendan, who was alone in this…maze. What else could she call it? So far they’d gone from a cave into a room that reminded her of South America.
The large-leafed plants, colorful orchids and humidity resembled the jungle she’d... lived in for almost six months. Six long, tormented months. Had she really spent that much time with Carlos on his estate? Somehow it had seemed much, much longer.
So far everything was familiar. Carlos, the gowns, the necklace, the extravagant rooms and meals, the armed guards. Carlos wielded his money and power like weapons, and they had hurt plenty of people. She had witnessed his ruthlessness when he brandished that power. The memories would stay with her forever. At that time she hadn’t been able to do anything about it.MoreLess
