The Lost heir of somewhere unknown

Liah's eyes flew open and she bolted upright in the bed. Her eyes dart around the room and she let out a sigh of relief when she saw her brother sitting next to the man dressed in a quarantine suit. "What happened?" She asks checking her body for signs of sexual assault. "Relax, he didn't touch you." Her brother said without looking at her.

"I never would've fallen asleep on my own, what did he do to me?" She asks walking over to him. "He drugged you." "Why?" "He said you're no use to him if you're falling over in exhaustion and if you're of no use to him, he has no reason to keep you alive, so he drugged you, so you could get some rest." He said looking at his phone as he continued.

"He then told me to sit here until you woke up because I have to keep you in line and if you step out of line, then I will be the one who pays for it." He said in a cold tone, not that he was angry at her, he just always sounded like that ever since he joined this gang.

"But I haven't stepped out of line, I've done everything he asked." "And he intends for it to stay that way, you put one-foot wrong Liah and you'll find out just how bad things can get for you here. You think it's bad now? You've no idea what some of these girls here are going through daily.

And yes, most of us here know that what Razor is doing is wrong and I say most of us because there are a few men here that love to hurt people, the more gruesome the more they get off on it and the last thing you want is to fall in the hands of those guys; which is exactly what will happen if you piss him off

And there is nothing I would be able to do to help you. Most of us are only here because we are trying to keep our families safe, like you, Zoey, and Mama but for me to do that, you've to do what he asks. Whatever he asks." He emphasizes the last words.

"Even if he wants to….? Shivers ran down her back as her voice trails off. "Yes, even that, you're twenty-five years old Liah, do you think you would even still be a virgin if he didn't allow it? If I wasn't one of his right-hand men?

No, you would probably be in one of these rooms like the rest of these girls…..so yes…..most of us know that what he's doing is wrong but there is nothing any of us can do to stop him, many have tried and they and their families are all dead.

So for all our sakes, just do what he asks, without the backchat." He snaps coldly glaring at her. "I know you love doing that but they that keep their mouths shut and do as they're told, keep their tongues, now go freshen up and come do your job." He growls out before turning and walking from the room.

A few minutes later she came out of the bathroom dressed in her quarantine suit, she then put on a pair of gloves, walked over to the man, and began examining him. There was little change in his condition, his limbs were still swollen to a point where the doctor still couldn't put on the casts and his breathing was still very shallow, not to mention his pulse was almost non-existent.

With a heavy sigh, she removed her gloves, made a note on the pad, and went to wash her hands. She was taken from her home and brought here to take care of this man but what if there was nothing she could do to save him, all she could do was observe him from the outside but what if what was going on, on the inside was what ended up killing him.

This wasn't working, she needed to know more about what was going on inside this man's mind and body, this man needed a hospital and he needed it now. Getting up she went to the door and tried opening it but found it closed, so she began pounding on it instead.

Three pounds later one of his goons opens the door and gives her a cold deadly stare which makes her blood run cold. "I… I need to talk to Razor, it's urgent." She said in a nervous tone." Without saying anything to her he pushed her back into the room and closed the door.

She was trying to think of another way to talk to Razor when she remembered her phone. She had just reached for it and was about to dial her brother's number when the door opened and Razor walked in.

"You called?" He asks in a smug tone his arms folded across his chest. "Um..yes, this man needs a hospital, okay look, I know this room has all the equipment of a hospital but he's not getting any better, I need to see what is going on inside him, he needs X Rays and Ultrasound, even a MRI, If he stays here I'm afraid he won't survive." She said wringing her hands.

He made a growling sound in his throat, turned, and walked from the room. What was she supposed to do now? Why won't he listen, this man is in serious condition, how was she supposed to do her job if she didn't know what she was working with?

She was still pacing the floor when the door opened and the young girl came in as usual with the goon waiting by the door, and again without any eye contact she put the tray on the table and walked towards the door. "Wait, is Razor going to take this man to the hospital? He needs….." With the girl now out of the room the goon closed the door before she could even finish her sentence.

She let out a frustrated sigh and was about to walk over to the man again when the door opened again and there stood the goon she talked to before. "Eat, now." He said in a cold tone before closing the door again. 'What is it with these people and their two-word sentences, this man was dying right before her eyes and they want her to eat, okay fine, she tried.'

Her brother's words about what some of these girls were going through rang in her head and the only reason she wasn't going through the same thing was because he was in Razor's gang. Some of these girls didn't have brothers who could join the gang and keep them safe, so they were left to the mercy of this cold-hearted bastard and his goons.

Should she even eat this food? Was he going to drug her again? Not that she had a choice, she thought with a sigh. The goon did say eat now, so if the bastard came in here and saw that she hadn't eaten, only God knows what he would do to her brother, so with a heavy sigh she began eating.

An hour later she was still awake so she knew he hadn't drugged her again. He had made his point, she was under his roof now and he could do whatever he wanted with her.

At eleven pm she was sitting beside the man reading to him when Razor and the doctor entered the room. "Come, we're taking him to the hospital," Razor said to her as four other men entered the room with a stretcher. They gently lifted the man from the bed, placed him on the stretcher along with a portable oxygen mask and tank, and carried him from the room.

How in God's name was he getting these things? She wondered as she took up her phone and walked towards the door. She then shakes her head as if trying to clear the fog in her brain. Stupid question, this was Razor, he could probably have ice shipped from the North Pole to here if he wanted and it wouldn't even be allowed to melt until he told it to.

She was standing outside the room and was about to walk down the passage behind the doctor and the men carrying the stretcher when Razor grabbed her arm, took the phone from her, and handed it to a woman she hadn't noticed before.

"Sterilized this room thoroughly before I get back." He barked in a hostile tone before turning and shoving Liah indicating with his head that she should get moving which she did.

She didn't even get a chance to breathe some of the precious night air in her lungs before she was shoved into an ambulance behind the doctor who had gotten in after the goons had put the man in.

One of the goons got in and sat beside her with his gun in his lap as Razor walked towards a big black vehicle with very dark windows. It resembles one of those vehicles she had seen in a presidential parade on television once.

There were only two small windows in the back of the ambulance so she couldn't see much of where she was going. It wouldn't surprise her if he had this ambulance custom-made for this purpose. She thought with a small snort which earned her a hostile glare from the goon.

The doctor kept a close eye on the man throughout the entire journey, after a while the ambulance finally came to a stop and the goon opened the door and stepped out with his gun gun drawn as if he expected to be attacked. She was about to get out but the goon gave her a look that froze her in place.

He spent a few minutes surveying the area, he then put his hand up and made a signal with his fingers. Seconds later the other four goons approached the ambulance and they too indicated with their heads for her to get out which again she did.

She looked around and realized she was at the hospital that she worked at, the one Razor said he owned. She began looking for someone she knew but she saw no one, the place was deserted, a big surprise. She thought again as the goons led them into the hospital.

They walked through a few doors and she realized in all the three years she had been in this hospital she had never seen before and found herself in a secluded part of the hospital. "Take him through there, he needs a CAT Scan, now." The doctor said pointing to a door.

"This was your idea so go with him," Razor said waving her in the direction the doctor went.
