I see lord max walk over to me. he squats down
and looks at me. you are safe here he tells
me. a single tear escapes my eye. I nod. I stay
in my room all day holding a locket in my hand.
I lay it on my bed and dress in my night gown.
After I am dressed I put my locket on and undo
my hair. opening my door I walk out and look
around. My hair falling in curly waves down my
back. I walk down the stairs and look around. I
walk outside and sit on the porch swing. I
unfold a piece of paper and look at a picture of
my mother and father. A tear falls on it. anna
you shouldnt be out here youll get sick I hear
a voice say. I look up and see my maid
standing there. I start to cry harder. oh sweet
heart she says and sits by me. she pulls me
close. She leads me back into the house and
tucks me in. I go to sleep.
William
William you know her? my father asks. yes I
saw her being harassed by a couple guys and I
stepped in I tell him. oh my father said and
sips his coffee. I get up and follow her out.
Anna
I run into the yard and into the woods. Something
grabs me I try to scream but they tie a cloth
around my mouth and ties my hands together. I
start crying. I stomp my foot on his and he lets
me go I run back to the house still tied. The
house comes into view and I run into someone.
It turns out to be William. oh god he says
when he sees me tied up and crying. Then he
looks behind me and pales. He picks me up in
his arms and runs into the house. When hes
inside he locks the door and screams for help.
His father runs and helps untie me. I scream
when the door starts to be pounded on. It
breaks open and a guy comes in. lord max
holds a shotgun and aims it at him. William
puts his body in front of mine. leave now lord
max tells the guy. not until you hand over the
girl the guys says. thats not happening so
William

him. dude you are totally in love with her I see it
all over your face he tells me. its that
