As the intruder pulled away she held on for as long as she could in hopes of drawing at least a little bit of blood so he had something more than whatever he was stealing to take back with him. Sofia felt a surge of triumph giving her a strange energy as she watched her intruder back away from her and get off the bed. Though she was bound she got up the moment she was free. Immediately she went for her bound hand and did her best to untie the knot in the blanket he had used to tie her down. Her heart continued to thump loudly in her chest, resounding in her ears, and her heavy yet fast paced breathing was enough to show just how frightened she still was in spite of her victory. It was a small victory as far as she was concerned because he was still there and not bolting for the exit.<br/><br/>Who the hell was she kidding? She should have known that she would not have been able to scare him away completely.<br/><br/>â€œYou still have no right breaking in here!â€ Though she did her best to sound bold in the opposite came out of it and she sounded pathetic. It was then that she decided that she would not fight back against him like she probably should have having gained the upper hand. One, he still held the blanket tightly, two she was still working on that knot. Her hands were shaking so much that she was having trouble keeping them steady enough for her to undo it. Silent curses left her as she pulled and yanked at the knot. At first it only seemed to make it worse, which caused a bit of frustration, but then she was able to get it lose. And the third thing: letâ€™s be honest here, Sofia was not really one for fighting. Once she was free she did not lunge for the intruder again, instead she ran out of the room.<br/><br/>Staggering down the hallway she went to her parentsâ€™ room and banged on the door as hard as she could in hopes of waking her father up. â€œDaddy! Thereâ€™s an intruder in the house,â€ she yelled. It sounded silly even to her, a grown woman calling for her daddy because she was afraid. Chances were he wouldnâ€™t even answer at all but she still had faith and she continued to bang on the door. Come on. They couldnâ€™t stay mad at her forever; after all they were family in the end and family had to stick together. Her father has not been there for her much and her mother wasnâ€™t ever any better but she really needed them. She has never been strong. Unfortunately thatâ€™s what happens when youâ€™re pampered pretty much all your life, you donâ€™t really know how to defend yourself against any real danger so to speak.<br/><br/>It was true. The rich were safe behind their elaborate security systems and had all the money in the world to back up anything that went wrong in their life. It could be such a lonely life sometimes aside from dangerous. Sofiaâ€™s family had a few enemies lurking around that she knew have tried to make a move against them numerous times. Every time they did she felt safe because she always had her brother or her father to protect her. Right now she felt that she was aloneâ€¦ Itâ€™s always been like that though. Aside of a few friends she has her family has been all Sofia has ever known in terms of comfort. It was a bit sad, but thatâ€™s just another thing that tends to happen when youâ€™re born into a rich family.
