"C-choose m-me? O-over h-her?"
The young assistant's eyes lit up with joy, and she almost began to hop up and down but Nathalie managed to hold herself back.
"Yes Nathalie, as in: I would stop asking for your help and let you live your life." But when Gabriel finished his sentence he could see the clear disappointment in her eyes, so in hopes of saving their conversation he gently lifted her chin up , and hoped that his assistant would look at him, so at least the designer himself wouldn't feel like he let her down.
"I know you would much rather do anything other than dress up as a villain and fight until you're unconscious."
He mumbled whilst still hoping for her to look up but Nathalie just shook her head and slowly uttered: "...yes...I understand sir...thank you for thinking about me like that."

Gabriel could clearly sense the tone of disappointment in her voice which bothered him a lot.
He wished he could promise her that he would move on, but they both knew: that was a lie.
"Nathalie I know you're disappointed but I-"
"Sir I-...it's different. I don't have much of a life to live. I-I mean I dedicated my life to being your sacrifice for Emelie so I wouldn't have anything other to do than be a part-time villain."
"Well I'm sure you have a family-"
"-I don't-"
"Pardon? You don't have a family?" Gabriel asked with a shocked expression being present on his face, but instead of answering Nathalie stared at the floor embarrassed.
For a few seconds she hesitated to answer but as she knew that Gabriel was getting impatient she gathered all of her strength to reply:
"No, I don't have anyone."
And right after saying that she ran off.

Nathalie hurried out of the hotel room leaving her superior all by himself to doubt what he did wrong.
He knew he did many things wrong which mainly started with ever involving her in his stupid foolish plans but Gabriel couldn't change what he had already done a long time ago.

At least now Nathalie got a little time for herself, so she ended up taking a short stroll down the corridor when the feeling of being followed haunted her.
She quickly turned around, but nothing.
Maybe it was just her paranoia.
Maybe she was just over exaggerating everything.
Or maybe-...nope she was definitely getting followed.
The floor creaked and Nathalie could feel that some was directly behind her, it was too late to run though, the mysterious person was way too close and would catch her any second now, so Nathalie just waited until she could feel an individual jump on her or maybe hold a knife to her throat, but all she felt was a light tap on her shoulder to which she turned around.
Nathalie gasped.
The young assistant couldn't believe who stood in front of her eyes at such an unexpected moment.
"T-Tom? How did you get here?"
"I-...I-...I was the one who booked the hotel room for you, of course I knew how to get here. It's simple really, you take a train-"
"-No, I mean why are you here?"
"Uhh to-...well, I was meant to-...I was meant to kidnap you-...I shouldn't have said that...fuck, now I can't let you go...I'm so sorry Nathalie. Please forgive me."
And with that he grabbed her shoulders and forced her face into a cloth which smelled sooooo sleepy that Nathalie collapsed within seconds.

Now he did it.
He achieved his all time dream, and Gabriel was nowhere near to save her.
So without further ado Tom took her away to his place where no one would suspect her to be.

Nathalie woke up with an excruciating headache to see what seemed like a nice room.
When the assistant regained more of her consciousness she could see that she was seated on the floor but as she tried to move she couldn't, her hands were tied, and so were her feet.
Even her mouth was shut with a piece of tape.

Only after a good ten minutes of muffled screaming did her "kidnapper" come into the room.
As he glared down at her he was clearly proud of himself for 'capturing' such a beauty.
"Nathalie! My lovely dear, you look so nice all tied up." The somewhat-short black haired man giggled as he knelt down in front of her and took a firm hold of the assistant's face. "Don't even bother to scream for help, the walls are soundproof. Plus I'd like you to scream for something else." He smirked which only intimidated Nathalie, but she thought that if she kept a straight face maybe he would loose interest and let her go, but he didn't.

Before she knew it he picked her up and sat her down onto the bed.
Tom carefully examined her with his own eyes before taking off her glasses and placing them onto the table next to them.
"Listen Nathalie!" He started to speak whilst dragging his hands down the outline of Nathalie's body that was still dressed. "I might appear shy and useless in public but I assure you, in private I'm much more." And as soon as he finished speaking he quickly got behind her with one move. "Now! I will untie this rope, BUT if you dare to move away even just one inch from me, I'll make sure you won't be able to move at all!...Understand?"
He aggressively asked to which the assistant nodded.
Soon enough Tom did indeed untie the rope, and just as he had told her Nathalie didn't move at all.
"Good girl. You're so obedient, aren't you?" The black haired man scoffed as he still remained behind her and began to slowly drag the woman's blazer off of her.

"Please don't do this!" Nathalie quietly mumbled as her eyes began to get watery.
Immediately he stopped to take a look at her, and quickly he turned her around, so now they were face to face.
"Ow Nathalie...I wish I could, but I'm way too obsessed with you to give up now." He whispered before continuing to deprive the young assistant from her clothes.
Next he slowly began to lift up her shirt to which in response Nathalie used her hands to keep the fabric down but Tom quickly threatened her. "What did I say!?! I told you not to move!! And now you're disobeying me!! That's very bad Nathalie. Don't make things harder for yourself...and for me."
With that he ordered the assistant to take off her shirt and sadly she couldn't do anything other than obeying.
"There, there. You see it isn't that difficult to follow instructions, plus you look wonderful."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By now Nathalie had tears streaming down her face, and she wasn't even listening to whatever Tom was saying.
Instead she was just trying to numb her feelings so she wouldn't constantly feel like a burden.
"Ow N-Nathalie I absolutely love you. I-in fact, I think I'm obsessed. You're so perfect, every inch of you-" he moaned out in pleasure but Nathalie just cried in pain.
"Please stop it already!!" She whispered hoping that within a few minutes he would get tired and eventually stop, but right now Tom was still pretty fucking excited and he didn't look tired at all.
He seemed really obsessed after all.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Finally when Tom stopped touching her allover, Nathalie had a little time to herself in which she just buried her face deep into the pillow and waited until he turned back to see the woman he loved so much sob into his pillow.
"Darling don't do this to me. I know you're trying to make me feel sorry for you, but your helpless state right now is only turning me on more."
"What the actual fuck Tom?! You're literally a pervert enjoying my vulnerability!"
"Correct. I love to see you so weak and fragile, knowing that I did this."
He smirked looking proud of himself.
Nathalie just wanted to punch him but she was far too weak to do anything, in fact she could barely even think.
She was still too traumatized from earlier activity plus her tears blurred her vision.
"Oh well-...you did tire me out a bit so I'll say good night, but tomorrow I'll continue what I've started."
"Tomorrow?!?! What makes you think I'll be here tomorrow?!"
"The fact that all of the doors are locked and there's no way for you to call for help...darling...I've planned this out for quite a while now. I told you...I'm obsessed with you."

Oh god, where was Gabriel to save her now?

Well actually he was in his room desperately searching for his assistant:
"Nathalie where the fuck are you!?!?" The designer exclaimed as he walked around the hotel searching everywhere for her but little did he know, she wasn't even in the same building as him.
In fact, she was dragged away to an unknown house where absolutely no one would look for her.
Still Gabriel asked everyone if they had seen a tall black haired young woman with a single red streak in her hair, but everyone said no.

Nobody saw her leave this place, but then: Where was she?
Well that was the question Gabriel couldn't answer and it drove him insane.
He couldn't just lose his precious assistant.
Not only did she mean the world to him, but she meant the world to his son as well.
And if Adrien would hear word of Nathalie missing: he would go absolutely insane.

So the designer remained patient and waited until dawn to get an answer, but not even the police couldn't give him one.

Gabriel had called every possible contact on his phone and absolutely no one was a help to his investigation.
Maybe she ran away.
Maybe she didn't want to be found.
Or way worse-...she got killed.
Well truth was that she simply got kidnapped.
But that didn't cross his mind-...yet!

"Nooroo, if you would be a quite good looking young female where would you disappear?"
Gabriel asked as he lied on the tiny bed unable to sleep and already on the second mug of his coffee.
The small mattress seemed empty without her and even Gabriel himself missed having her on top of him.
"Well sir, to be completely honest...I would go to a club. But miss Nathalie seems more responsible than that!"
"Fair enough, I just can't believe she ran away...well maybe she didn't...wait...maybe she didn't run away, maybe someone took her BY FORCE!!"

Gabriel looked at Nooroo and Nooroo looked back at his master with an agreeing nod, without further ado he said the transformation words and started to search for her on his own.

From rooftop to rooftops he searched the entire city but still there was no sign of his Nathalie.
She couldn't have just disappeared into thin air...could she?
Where the hell was she hiding? No-one knew.

So when Gabriel return to his hotel room he was absolutely devastated and angry with himself.
An unimaginable amount of guilt sunk into his heart as he believed that this was all his fault.
So now not only was he the worst father ever, but he was also the worst boss ever. He had lost his dearest employee who meant everything to both him and his business.

To be continued-

Okay to be honest I'm not very proud of this chapter, in fact I don't really like it at all. But now it's almost 7am and I've been up all night so it will be good enough.
I don't know what happened but writing is difficult and not fun right now.
Anyways love you all and I'll try to update quickly. ❤️
