May 21st...(evening)

Woke up again feeling a little better, but have now become overtired with all the sleep. Myth wasn’t home, but was close by, so I got dressed and left the apartment to meet him. We had a couple of drinks, well I had just one. No more pills for me so it was time to celebrate.
Now we are home and I can’t sleep, so I will grab my journal...

April 13, 2009

I had no idea that Katey was part of a biker gang! That came as a shock, but now that I think about it, it sounds like something Katey would be a part of.

I arrived at Lulu’s and saw Katey. She asked if I had seen RM yet and I hadn’t. I still had no clue who I was going to ask to go with me to give him the money. Then I came up with a brilliant idea and asked Katey if she wanted to dress up like a guy. At first she thought I was kidding, then the idea started to grow on her.

Brie was at the bar and told us about her and the clown. She was thankful that she was able to get away and was slowly recovering from her ordeal. I could tell that Katey didn’t want to hear anything else about it, so I suggested that we go shopping for some men’s clothing...

Shopping was a success and I left Katey to go and change while I went to see Louise at the Jade. I filled Louise in on the latest news and finished with telling her that Katey was my sister. She was really surprised and would never have guessed. Katey then showed up dressed up in her ‘dude’ costume. We named him/her Normally Kizzmyazz or Norm for short. I tired hard not to laugh and loved Louise’s reaction to this ‘man’. Louise had no clue so I thought for sure that it would work on RM...

I left the Jade and went back to work. Katey went home to change and met me there.
Cloee and Jess were there and Damion walked in not too long after. I must have been lost in thought because I don’t really remember Damion walking in behind the bar, but he did and shot me up with a dose of the Tassa serum.

I feel to the ground and heard Katey call out my name. Within seconds, Damion had me in cuffs and a leash and began to drag me out of the bar...

I woke up tied to a chair in some sort of warehouse with Damion standing over me. He shoved a gag in my mouth and blindfolded me. My biggest hope was that Katey would help. I know she saw everything...

I heard a door open again and a woman's voice whispered in my ear telling me that my boyfriend is on his way. Someone knows about Myth. I tried not to panic. I jumped at the sound of a phone beeping and then heard some laughter. Something then touched my neck. It was cold and I’m sure it was a knife. This woman was serious. She told me loud noises made her jumpy and if I behaved then I wouldn’t be hurt that much. She kissed my cheek and I remember jerking my head.

The woman placed the blade against my throat again and I head the door open once more with a lot of commotion and men’s voices. One of them being Myth’s asking if I was okay. RM’s voice answered the question for me and said that I was...

I then felt the knife again, but it wasn’t at my throat, it was being used to remove all my clothing. I heard Myth yell at Damion to get away from me, so I know it was him with the knife...

I wish that I could see what was going on, but I was able to hear Myth and the other men, one being referred to as Santis. RM let slip who the woman was when we said, “Give Anja a cut for each cuss he makes from now on Jess”. The woman hissing in my ear was Jess, the woman Myth first cut up and RM’s girl. This was not good...

Jess asked if she could remove my blindfold and RM said sure. Just as soon as she did, she slipped a plastic bag over my head. I started to panic inside and tried hard not to show it. I could see Myth through the bag and RM telling him, “One wrong move and she will die.”

Myth gave up and told RM that he wins and told him to let me go. RM laughed at him. He told Myth to move closer to me and then placed the barrel of a gun to my breast while Jess held the knife to my throat. The look on Myth’s face crushed me. I hated for him to see me like this...

RM then asked Jess to tell Myth what she wanted and she replied that she wanted to give him the same treatment he gave her. I watched her walk over to Myth and cut the shirt off his body with her knife. The bag had slowly started to cling to my face the more I breathed and I started to panic...

RM shouted at Myth to stay away from him and to accept his spot in town where nothing happens without or with his approval and he would let me breathe. I was feeling light-headed and heard Myth say that he would act in accordance with the demand.

I barely heard RM say, “Your turn love…” but was relieved when RM poked a small hole in the bag and I tried to get mouthful of air.

I heard Jess say that she was going to let me choose where she should cut Myth. I didn’t respond, but had to when RM placed his hand over the hole he made and said, “If she doesn’t, well...”

I watched as Jess kneed Myth in the back. I hated to see him so helpless. RM was still standing beside me when he asked Santis, “Would Myth like his girl to suck your cock, Santis?” The men swapped places and Santis walked over and started to trace his knife against my cheek, over top of the bag.

Myth swore and RM heard it and announced, “Cut Anja, he cursed.” Santis took his knife and used it to cut a small slash on my shoulder. I watched him as he then licked my blood from the knife blade...I couldn’t take it anymore and closed my eyes.

I opened them when Santis grabbed my neck and ripped off the bag and the gag out of my mouth. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see that Jess had begun to cut Myth’s chest and heard him cry out in pain...

I gasped for more air when the bag was removed and Santis slapped me hard across my face. He then squeezed my mouth and tried to get me to open it. I kept my mouth shut tight and he slapped me again. At the same time, I could see Damion start to choke Myth.

I heard RM tell Santis to zip up as he thought he heard someone outside and wanted him to go and watch. Santis patted my face and made the comment, “Some other time” and I hissed at him, “If you bring that thing near me I would bite it off.” Santis laughed at me and pulled the gag back up to my mouth...

I watched as Jess started to cut Myth’s chest again with her knife. She was about to cut off his nipple. I couldn’t take watching him in agony anymore...

Jess turned to me and asked how I would feel if she carved a ‘J’ into his chest as a lovely reminder. I didn’t answer her and just looked at Myth. He looked back at me and gave me a slight nod and I closed my eyes. Jess slapped me and yelled at me to keep them open. She then took the knife and started at his right shoulder and dragged the blade across his body. Myth screamed and moaned in pain the whole time. I felt so useless and wanted desperately to help him...

Jess dropped the knife to the floor and told Myth that she had something else for him and pulled out a small baggy from her pocket. I had no idea what she was talking about, nor could I see what was in the bag. I could however tell that Myth knew what it was by the fear in his eyes.

She pulled out a small capsule of something and held it under his nose and asked if he remembered what it was. RM then made a comment, “We should inject him with the PT drug and watch him rape his own girl here. She likes drugging I heard.” I then knew that RM knew was the one to drug his rum...

Jess meanwhile started to break open the capsule and began to tap the contents into the cuts on his body. I still didn’t know what it was and tried not to watch as Myth screamed out in pain again.

Something that RM was doing caught my attention, as he had his hand in his pocket. I watched as he approached me and cringed as he reached down between my legs and began to shove something inside of me. “He can suck it out when he’s over the first pain wave and then you can help him un-cuff,” he said. I then figured out what was inside of me…it was the key to the cuffs...

Jess then slapped Myth hard across his face and then kneed him in his crotch. He doubled over in pain again.

RM knocked on the door and asked Santis if the coast was clear and I watched as Jess took Myth’s ripped up shirt and used it to conceal the knife she used. RM looked at us one last time and said to me, “You hold the key doll. The next time we meet, you will treat me with respect understood?” He then looked at Myth and told him, “It ends here and now”, and walked out the door with Jess leaving us alone.

Myth slowly crawled over to me and asked if I was okay and started to untie the gag around my mouth.

I must have passed out because I don’t remember Myth taking off the cuffs, but I woke to hear him say that he was sorry that I was hurt in all of this. I was more worried about him and asked if he was okay. He tried to make me feel better and smiled saying that he would need some stitches, but other than that, he was fine. Myth then pulled out his cell phone and called Katey to ask if she could bring me some clothes. I wrapped my arms around him carefully, not caring about the blood, and asked what was in the capsule. Myth told me it was smelling salts...

We sat in each other's arms until Katey arrived with some clothes for me. Everything started to sink in as soon as I saw her and I was so over come with a wave of emotion and tried hard to hold back my tears...

I must have been in shock, as I didn’t really speak and just did as I was told and started to get dressed.

I heard Myth tell Katey over and over again to just take me back to his place. He left the warehouse alone leaving Katey with me. Katey called 911 and told them that a doctor was needed at the clinic for Myth. She then put her arm around me and we made our way out of the warehouse ourselves. I knew that I couldn’t leave Myth alone, so I pulled away from her and began to run to the clinic myself...

I could hear Katey chasing after me, but I didn’t stop.

I arrived a little out of breath and looked around for Myth. Katey arrived seconds later telling me that I shouldn’t be there, but she knew that I needed to be with him. She knocked on the exam room door and slowly opened it for me and we both walked in to see Bill working on Myth’s wounds...

Bill asked if I was okay, but Katey interrupted and asked about Myth’s condition. He told Katey that he needed some help and she offered to be his assistant.

I left the room and stood outside the door. There was too much blood...

A man walked into the clinic while I was waiting. Katey then opened the door to the exam room and told me Myth was going to be okay. The man looked at Katey and asked her if she was in for a check up. She said hello to the doctor. I guessed they knew each other...

Bill came out of the room and addressed the man as Dr. Dirval and asked what brought him to the clinic. Then another doctor arrived, Dr. Baran.

Katey asked Bill if she could take me to see Myth and he said it was okay. I followed her into the exam room and just stared at Myth on the table. He looked so frail...

Drs. Baran and Dirval followed us in and then asked us to wait outside of the room. I then learned that Dr. Dirval was a psychiatrist and he was there for a consult for Myth’s case. Myth looked at me and tried to reassure me again that he was okay and told me that I should go home and get some rest.

Katey needed to pull me out of the room despite me trying to shake her off. I didn’t want to leave his side...

Katey and I waited in the waiting area and for the first time I turned to her for comfort and remember resting my head on her shoulder. I couldn't have done this without my sister...

Dr. Baran approached and offered us a donut. Katey declined and Dr. Baran asked if I was alright. Katey must have told her what happened because I heard her exclaim, “Oh really? He did this?” Dr. Baran did nothing to help me until Katey felt something wet on my shoulder. It was the blood from the cut Santis gave me, but she still didn't do anything...

I don’t know how long we waited, but it felt like forever until we saw Dr. Baran move Myth out of the exam room to take him upstairs. We followed her, and then Katey offered to leave Myth and I alone together.

I remember climbing into the bed and curled up as close as I could facing him and closed my eyes. Myth brushed the hair from my face and asked if I was okay. I didn’t say a word. He just held me tight and spoke gently to me, telling me that he was sorry I was involved, that he was happy I was okay, that I wasn’t seriously injured and that he didn’t know what he would do without me. I finally whispered to him that I was sorry and I should have been more careful...

He tried to comfort me by saying that it wasn’t my fault and with RM knowing about Amber he was surprised that they went after me in the first place. I told him that I hadn’t told RM about Amber yet. Myth explained to me what RM’s truce really meant; the men would remain cordial to each other as long as their people stayed away from each other’s.

Myth leaned in close and lightly kissed me and asked if I would stay the night with him at the clinic. He didn’t want to be alone and neither did I...

I started to cry again and told him the events that lead up to us meeting at the warehouse together. Myth asked me to stop crying and gently kissed the tips of my fingers reminding me that it was all over and to put it behind me. His kindness allowed me to calm myself down enough to fall asleep in his arms...

I woke up sometime later to Bill’s voice asking if I was okay. He had come by to check on Myth’s condition. Bill asked if Dr. Baran had a look at me and I told him no. He told me that I should be checked out and took me down to the exam room.

Bill had me undress and looked at my shoulder, the one that Santis cut. As he examined me, I told him about all the things that Damion, Jess and RM did. Bill showed sympathy towards me and again I started to feel a little better. He fixed up my cut with two butterfly closures. I started to cry again from the shock of the events. Bill gave me a sedative to help me sleep and I went back upstairs and climbed back into bed with Myth…

I put down my journal and looked at the time. It was really late and sleep once again had caught up with me. I tiptoed back into the bedroom and crawled into bed beside Myth just as I had done to finish my latest entry in my journal...
