I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband

Davi lay on a massive bed in a large room, bright light landing on her eyelids, causing them to flutter. A few seconds later, she slowly opened her eyes to let them adjust to the light. Her vision was blurry at first but as it started to clear, what she saw made her frown. Where was she? This wasn’t her room?

She was still dazed as she looked around the luxurious room. She blinked a few times more to clear her vision and that was when she remembered what had happened to her. She remembered that she was sitting in the car next to her comrades but she remembered that things seemed a bit odd. The route that the driver was taking wasn’t the correct one. Her sharp senses were telling her that something was not right from the beginning but, this man beside her was her trusted comrade and he was a direct subordinate of the commander. That was why she shrugged off the strange feeling and she lowered her guard. But at that exact moment that she relaxed and before she could do or say anything, out of nowhere, she felt a sharp pain on the side of her neck as a needle pierced her skin and some unknown substance was injected into her body until she lost consciousness.

After recalling what happened, a thought shouted at her. ’I... I’ve been kidnapped?!’

The moment she realized what was happening, Davi straightened up, fast as lightning, and she surveyed herself. She noticed that her ACU coat and combat shoes were removed but she didn’t seem to have been harmed so she let out a deep sigh of relief. However, the next point of call was to find a way to escape. Her hand and feet weren’t bound, which was strange. ’Don’t most kidnappers usually tie up their victims so they can’t escape?’

What was even weirder was the fact that they put her in a huge luxurious room that looked like it was fit for a princess. She saw silken sheets and expensive antiques and a large walk in wardrobe. There was also an ensuite which was almost as big as the room itself. Wherever this place was, it screamed of money.

Why had she been brought here? Where on earth was ’here’? Shaking her head to erase these questions, as she had more important things to think about like escaping, she looked for obvious exits that she could take. There were a couple of huge windows on either side of the room and she immediately walked towards one of them. She peeked outside the window but all she saw was darkness. She looked down and to her dismay, it seemed she was a few stories up this building and escaping through the window was not going to be a very good option. She also saw that the windows have unusually thick iron grills, making it impossible for her to pass through.

Davi then looked at the bedroom door and wondered if her captors were silly enough to have left the door unlocked so she immediately went to the door. However, just as she was about to turn the knob, she heard voices and footsteps coming nearer so she carefully made her way back to the bed and pretended to be asleep.

After some moments, a couple of men seemed to have entered the room so Davi held her breath as she prepared for the worse. She gripped the glass she picked a moment ago.

"Looks like she’s still not awake."

"But that drug should only last three hours right?"

"Well, maybe her body reacted differently to the drug."

"Do you think the young master will come? I personally think that this woman might not be that important to him."

"How could you say so?"

"Well, we have been trying for years to kidnap the little young master but we have never succeeded even once. If this woman was that important to him, don’t you think this was too easy?"

"Now that you mention it, you may be right but according to the source, the young master seem to be quite attached to this woman."

"If he was that attached to her, wouldn’t he be here, right now?"

"I’m not sure but maybe they received the news late?"

"How could that even be possible? Did you forget how tight the young master’s security is? He was always able to uncover our plans even before we execute them."

"Somehow, what you’re saying does make sense. The knight should’ve been here by now. We wouldn’t have been able to even bring her here if the young master sent that knight to rescue her."

"Maybe, that knight went oversees? Or this woman is a useless bait."

"We don’t know yet. We better not let our guard down. The young master might arrive when we least expect it."

As Davi listened to the men’s conversation, her eyes slowly widened. ’What? T-this means these are the same people who wanted my son? So they wanted my son because they wanted to use him as bait for Sei? And they kidnapped me this time for that same purpose?’

Davi clenched her fists tight. She couldn’t help but feel nervous. What were they planning to do to her darling Sei? ’If Sei did come after her, what will happe... no, I can’t let this happen...’

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Davi started to plan. She could already foresee a situation where the enemy were blackmailing Sei and that they may even capture him and hurt him because of her. Thinking about all those, her mind and heart protested intensely. She would never just willingly accept being the cause of Sei’s downfall. She promised to protect him and not to be the cause of him getting hurt. ’Whatever it takes, I won’t let you use me...’

That moment, Davi’s eyes turned wild and it slowly blazed with a furnace of fighting spirit. She wanted to put herself into the peak of her fighting mode.

She wanted to escape this place before Sei arrived. ’Sei... don’t come... I will escape this place on my own...’

Thus, the moment Davi found the perfect opportunity and the moment she was ready enough to attack, she suddenly rose, and like an angel of death who appeared out of nowhere, and in a blink of an eye, the two men suddenly fell on the floor before they could even react.

Davi then took the men’s guns. The glimmer in her eyes was dangerous as she hold a gun in her hand. She was dressed exactly like a dreamy army girl avatar in video games. Her camouflage trouser was paired with a tight dark green tank while her long black hair was swaying like a black waterfall. She just looked so cool and beautiful as ever even with those cold, scary look in her eyes.

After putting the gun in her waist band, Davi saw her safety shoes near the door and she quickly went and wore it.

However, before Davi could move her feet to finally perform her escape, the sound of choppers and multiple car tires screeching could be heard, causing Davi’s heart to flutter. If she wasn’t mistaken, that was probably Sei... Sei was coming for her...
