Penny POV “This will be your new living quarters.” The nurse opened a door on the right. The hallway looked like something out of the movies. The dark green carpet remindedof a hotel. Random statues and paintings hung on the walls with the occasional mirror.
Going into the room, | was in awe with out welcoming it all felt. The door opened up into a living room. Two full sized couches sat facing each other with a glass coffee table in the middle. An electric fireplace danced against the wall.
A smaller kitchen was adjacent with a full fridge. The white and grey thscreamed money and elegance. A half bath was just outside the kitchen. On the other side of the livingroom was two larger bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bathroom. The double vanities were separate from the steam shower and toilet. Stark white sheets were welcoming but it was the basic floral paintings that really toldhow neutral this place actually was.
“Food will be served in about twenty minutes. It would be best if | could get you to sit down and relax on the couch. Putting your feet up would be helpful.” “That's fine.” | said with a little bit of happiness. It almost felt wrong to want to enjoy squiet tin this room.

“They are listening and watching.” | almost asked what she said but my mouth stayed shut. Instead, | just gave her a smile and flipped through the channels.
After she put a glass of water and sfresh fruit on the coffee table, she stood up and looked around. “The doctor will be by tomorrow to get more blood.” “Tomorrow?” | asked, concerned.
“Yes. You need to eat up to keep your strength.” After givinga small smile, she just walked out of the room, shutting the door quietly behind her. It wasn’t until | heard the click of the lock that | felt like a prisoner.
“Did | make a mistake?” | asked my babies as | rubbed my belly.
Right as | asked that question, the T.V flickered to a different screen. Thinking | pushed a button, | tried to use the remote to change it back but nothing worked.
“Good morning.” A voice said on the T.V. “Wake up, Gunther.” My body froze as my eyes slowly raised up to look at the T.V. The camera moved so | could see two people sitting in chairs, tied in chains. They were facing each other but it was the face of Gunther that | could see. My heart started racing as | kept watching.
“DON'T TOUCH HIM!” Kara's voice screamed through the speakers.
This couldn't be real. Gunther and Kara were in the hosptial at my pack... right? SLAP! A male back handed Kara so hard that | cold see something flying off to the side. Her head snapped over and her feet started to wiggle.
“Hit me. Not her.” Gunther finally raised his head and looked at Kara. The camera zoomed in on Gunther’s face. The love and care was evident.
“The mighty Gunther, weakened by a girl.” Vins voice causedto interally retract.
“Fuck you, Vin.” Gunther rolled his eyes and the camera backed off his face just in tto see Vin deliver a few punches to Gunther.
