Collateral Damage - Open for 1M (PM)

[lizzy1228]

Hi Everyone!

I'm looking for someone to join me in a kidnap RP with a twist. The story's set in London in the early 1800s and it's about Daniel Hardgrave, Earl of Winstead, who's looking for revenge against his estranged childhood friend (Lord James Blackwood) who he believes to be responsible for his sister's death.

As revenge, Daniel kidnaps James' younger sister Emily (Lily) and threatens to impregnate and then abandon her, ruining her chances for marriage and future happiness. It becomes clear that he's bluffing, however, as his good nature would never allow him to harm a woman. Though he despises James and wants to hurt him, he comes to care for Lily and eventually falls in love with her.

I'm looking for someone to play Daniel. I like longer posts (but not too long) and attention to plot! I'll be Emily.

Lady Emily Blackwood
19
5'5, 110lbs
Slender, with delicate features
Long, curly brown hair
Bright blue eyes
Fair skin, blushes easily
Very sweet and innocent, but also smart and funny. Also has a hidden independent/stubborn streak.

Lord Daniel Hardgrave, Earl of Winstead
29
6'2, 190lbs
Toned and athletic
Brown hair, brown eyes
Very masculine
Sexually experienced and a bit rakish, but has become more serious in the year since his sister's death. An innately good man, but currently intent on revenge.


Here we go!

Emily jerked awake with the violent jostling of the carriage. They had been traveling for hours, and were now far outside of London, but she had been unconscious for most of it and was still groggy from the drugged rag her abductors had held over her mouth.

Her whole body hurt, and her mind worked sluggishly to put everything together. Where was she? What had happened to her? Was she in danger?

She noted that she was alone in the carriage. Apparently she was being delivered somewhere. But where? And to whom?

The unanswered questions exhausted her, and after only a few minutes of consciousness, even her panic couldn't keep her awake any longer. Her eyes dropped closed and Emily felt herself fading.

"Don't fall asleep" she told herself, You need to be able to fight! But the thoughts sounded as if they were coming from far away. They became quieter and quieter as Emily felt herself losing her grasp on consciousness.

She passed out again only minutes before the carriage drew to a stop outside the large, secluded, Pembroke Manor - one of the many properties belonging to Daniel Hardgrave, the Earl of Winstead.

The hour was late, later than that was expected of the two men he hired to accommodate the fair young Lady Lily Blackwood from her estate. His reason for this kidnap was not freely given to anyone for it was a reason of his own. The thoughts that were flowing through him were not ones of pleasantry but malicious and intended to exact his revenge upon one James Blackwood. The man who led his sister to her death and now it was his turn to feel the pain, but it wasn’t pain of death that he would feel, it would be the pain of not knowing what happened to his sister.

He stood upon his balcony that over looked the rose garden, his sisters favorite balcony for she would spend hours sitting here staring off into the valley. She loved this Manor and it’s people and one James Blackwood. His anger coursed through his veins for the loss of his sister and the burning hatred of the one whom killed her, however, the tides are about to be turned around.

“They are here.” came the maids voice as she bowed to him and walked out of the room. Daniel nodded but said nothing to her. He continued to watch as the sun slowly began to sink beneath the hills. Sighing heavily he turned and headed into the center of the room and waited for Lily to be brought here before him.

Before long the door opened and the men carried her passed out body into the room. “Put here on the sofa gents and that will be all.” He tossed them a few gold coins.. He sat upon the chair and waited. His dark brown orbs fixed upon her…
