I awoke to a cold breeze that washed over my entire body. Thoughts were still foggy, but I felt my consciousness slowly seep back. I couldn't pinpoint where I was. The darkness around me wasn't completely pitch black, however, the things I saw weren't much help. A bench, two small windows on the upper part of the wall opposite to me, and some shiny things scattered across the ground. There was an X-shaped monstrum in one of the corners too, at first, I believed it to be some weird bookcase.
The next thing I was aware of was the cold. A chilling breeze swept across me and made me realize that I was completely naked. I tried to sit up, however, the chains attached to my wrists quickly changed my plans. It was the moment the memories started flooding my brain and panic has - once again - set it.
"I am chained up, bare ass naked, in a random basement." I mumbled to myself, trying to get reality to set in so I could think straight.
Deep breaths. Slow thoughts. And just as I was beginning to calm down I heard rustling and footsteps above me.
"Okay, I can do this."
I felt the cuffs around my wrists. I was trying to find a lock mechanism, maybe a buckle if those men turned out to be complete idiots. Unfortunately for me, these were nothing of the sort and I had no way out of them without a key. My hands were positioned far away from each other too, so even if I did manage to get it, I would have no way to use it.
More footsteps.
Alright, next best thing: I felt around for whatever the chains were attached to. Pipes. They seemed to be fragile, something I might be able to break.
Another deep breath. Then I yanked at the pipes as hard as I could, without rattling the chains. My heart sank into my stomach the moment I heard the loud metallic sound echo through the room, and for a moment I felt it stop when more footsteps followed and this time they were heading downstairs, in my direction. And as far as I could tell I didn't even make a dent in the pipes, so I tried again.
And again.
And once more.
But my desperation fuelled attempts couldn't help me once the door to the basement flew open and two people stepped inside. One of them turned the light on, blinding me and making me blink heavily with teary eyes. Once I've regained my vision it was clear who they were though, the two men from the back of the van. This time they looked a bit more relaxed, like they were sure of what they were doing and... as they have already won. They have also changed clothes since then, so I was fairly sure that quite some time has passed.
"Why am I he-" My voice croaked as I tried to work it, so I coughed. "Why am I here? What do you want?" I tried to sound as confident as possible, but when you're chained up naked in front of strangers, in a place that you don't recognize, your voice is sure to tremble. "If you let me go now I won't go to the police."
The chuckle that I was so familiar with already began ringing in my ears. This time louder and more sinister. It sent chills down my spine, and combined with the cold breezes in the basement it made my body react. I was covered in goosebumps and to my embarrassment, my nipples hardened. "I'm gonna scream." I threatened.
"Yeah, that's not happening, girly, there aren't any people in a six-mile radius." The blond man spoke. "I'm afraid you're stuck here, for at least a little while. Until we're done." My first instinct was to memorize everything I could about these people and the first thing I noticed about this one was the raspy voice. I was sure that he was a smoker. His fingers told me the same thing, although his teeth were a bit white for it. He also has freckles scattered across his face, giving a heavy contrast to his pale skin.
I felt disgusting for finding his and the other man's features attractive. They were opposites in many aspects, however, both of them gave me flutters that not even my boyfriend had before. The tingle between my legs was strange and unwelcome, but I couldn't do much about it.
The bigger man, the one who fondled me earlier came closer. "It's gonna take a while until we're done with you. Especially since you don't seem to be putting up much of a resistance."
