Chapter 17
James and Edward spent the next half an hour in the kitchen as the teen slowly ate and drank. It did a world of good to the weakening boy and he was able to stay awake and not sway on the spot.
“Time to get organised,” Demetri called from the lounge room. “We leave in an hour.”
Edward was led back out to the lounge room again.
“Here. Stay with your brother and his friend for a little while. I need to collect my stuff,” James said almost kindly.
Edward gratefully trotted the rest of his way over to the two other boys’ and sat down in between them.
“How are you feeling?” Emmett asked as soon as James left.
“A bit better,” Edward replied. “I still feel a little sick in the stomach, though.”
“What about your back?” Jasper asked this time.
Edward thought about it for a second. “It hurts, but only when I move.”
Emmett pulled Edward closer to him. “Not long now. In a couple of hours we’re gonna see Mum and Dad.”
“Yeah,” Edward felt his heart beat faster and the encouraging thought.
The boys spent most of the rest of their time observing as the four men carried everything out of the front door. The hour was almost up when James came back for Edward.
“Up. Clothes are in the bedroom, so let’s go.”
Edward obeyed. As he walked off with James holding his arm, he turned around to look at Emmett and Jasper. For an unexplainable reason he felt a sense of finality. He put it down to the knowledge that he was finally leaving this hellish torture chamber.
In the bedroom, James brought out a set of clothes Edward had never seen before. But he didn’t care. He could finally cover himself up and be a little bit warmer!
James unlocked his handcuffs so he could get into the shirt. Edward made sure to be careful of the cut on his back.
When the cuffs were reattached, he was made to have his hands behind his back.
“Okay. Let’s go.”
Edward walked back into the lounge room to see that Emmett and Jasper were dressed in the same clothes they’d worn the day they went shopping. He also saw that other two older boys’ had their hands bound behind their backs too and a black cotton bag over each of their heads.
“Where’s the tape?” James asked Felix. The roll of thick, silver duct tape was hurled in his direction.
James ripped away some of the adhesive strip and stuck it over Edward’s mouth, effectively gagging him.
He was then escorted out of the cabin’s front door.
Through the dark, Edward could see Emmett and Jasper being led over to the black van and assisted inside. As for him, he was steered in the opposite direction over to what looked like a silver Mitsubishi Lancer.
James opened the trunk. “This time you’re riding in there,” James said. “We’ll meet your brother and his friend at the exchange site.”
Edward was given no chance to make a wordless protest as he was hoisted into the cramped space. The door slammed closed and he was left in pitch blackness.
