"Ariel, where are you?"Daniel slowly opened the front door that stood slightly opened. The only sound he hears are the radio playing somewhere in the background."Hello..." he called moving deeper into the house. He found the living room in shambles. Standing still his eyes searched around."Ariel, where are you? Why the hell did you call me." the called annoyed.He turned around searching for the bedroom. It has been years since he truly paid attention to her. Their ways has parted on a difficult note.In the hall he noticed what look like blood spatter. Feeling uneasy he looked behind him making sure he was alone."Ariel..." he called reaching the first bedroom. He pushed the door opened. He noticed her laying sprawled on the bed. She was naked.He looked behind him again but he seem to be alone with her. Carefully moving closer he leaned over her. A quick check and he found a beating pulse. He turned her torso over looking into her staring eyes."What did you do?"Daniel looked ar
Denver hit the ground running. He quickly searched the alleys and any hidden corner. His action frantic in his worry about his daughter."Lea..." he called.His eyes worried because its getting dark. He quickly approached a couple of teenagers. He just showed a picture from his phone and some money he found in his pocket.The one girl points down the alley. He gives het the money already running down the alley. Raven stood looking at the children. Her eyes were searching for the twins. She felt the over familiar frantic feelings in remembering what had happened earlier. She hates not holding her children. They just always seemed out of her reach."Lea...where are you?"Denver called running down the alley. He noticed a van at the end with open doors."Like hell..." he cursed.As he near the end the van pulled away. He was breathing hard as he followed but it was already around another corner.Raven stood at the corner looking at the van. The voice in her ear told her to look away. Sh
Denver and Raven stood looking at each other. There seemed to be such distance between them. The ringing of the phone close to them in a phonebooth made both move."Hello," Denver grabbed the receiver. Raven smack him against the head. Shock he looked at her before listening..."Excuse me?" he questions."Pay attention." the stranger said."I am listening." Denver lift a warning finger to Raven."I know where one of your kids is. I want fifty million dollars.""Fine." he said evenly."I want you at Craven's Hill in an hour. Bring the money." the phone went dead."What did he say?" Raven was angry. There was such a look of hatred. Her expression frightens and puzzles him."We need to go to the mansion." he said evenly looking around for a taxi. He start walking but keeps looking around.The taxi stop behind him. When he turned he saw Raven getting in and leaving him behind. He run after the vehicle but they were gone. It was clear she encourage the driver to leave him behind.Raven lo
"Denver...don't do this." Raven flushed furious."If he don't, are you going to please me and the boys here?""No, but what I do plan on doing is bite it off. It's clear you don't need it." she snap."Really?" he looked curious. " Adam pull of your pants. I want to see how you look dickless.""No fucking way bastard." "Your boss is dead. I am making the new rules." Jason points the weapon on him. "Take off your fucking pants." he rise his voice.Raven moved forward and slapped him through the face. Jason looked shocked lifting the weapon. He pulled the trigger.Denver doubled over when he was hit. He hears Raven screaming wondering what has her this upset. He dropped onto the floor."Bitch."Jason grabbed the sports bag with the money. He reach for the black card but Raven was faster. Without thinking twice she breaks it in half facing him."I am gonna kill you bitch." he growls."It doesn't matter. I am his ride or die bitch." she kneel beside Denver. Her hands sticky from his warm p
Raven looked at the Ricardo clan with her own open hostility. She just about had it with everyone standing in her way. She is currently very angry with Denver but he is still her man. No one was going to remove her from his side."What else do you want to know?" she asked in a challenging voice her body ready for a fight."What did you say is your name?" Cathy has het own fighting attitude."I told you my name. What else do you want to know?""What are you really doing with my son?""It is in general none of your business." Raven looked through the window watching the nurses making him comfortable. They allowed her a couple of minutes with him.Denver slowly opened his eyes. He instantly feels the hurt all over his body. He tried moving."Don't..." cautioned Raven softly touching his hand."What happened?" he ask looking towards the water. His throat feels dry."You were shot. You just returned from the operation theatre.""Oh," he said closing his eyes. He quietly realized he keeps f
"How do you feel?" Raven helped Denver to sit down in the chair. She looked out the window. The estate was crawling with guards."Uncomfortable." he said following her eyes."Why don't we leave?""Keep your enemies close. Those men works for her." he keeps looking around in the bedroom."Is something wrong?""I don't think we have any privacy." he said seriously."What give you that idea?"She sit down beside him in her chair. Her eyes stayed focused on the roaming men. She noticed the birds circling the sky sometimes. She knows she should tell Denver."I spotted a micro camera within the bed lamp."Denver reach for her hand. He lean forward almost like he was in pain. "I want you to do me a favor." he whispered." Tell me." she gently rubs over his back. She tries her best to keep her expression natural."The day we arrived, I noticed stairs going downstairs. Will you check it out. I have the odd suspicion McAllen might be around here.""You think he might know where our kids are?""
"What the hell do you think you are doing?" Denver yelled furious. He tries his best to defend Raven but she was already tightly grabbed between two guards."Since you don't want to listen I just have to force your hand. I told you who this bitch is but you refuse to listen." Cathy declared looking narrowed eye at them both."You let her go immediately.""No I won't." "Raven..." Denver tried getting on his feet. The wound in his chest start to bleed."Denver don't..." she asked softly. "I will go.""No, I like the thought of throwing you out." Cathy declare with a mean look on her face. "Take her through the back door.""You will regret this day." Denver said softly sitting back on the bed. He looked at Raven with pain filled eyes. Raven was marched out the bedroom. They went down the hall but the men certainly wasn't leading her out of the mansion. They stopped in front of door. A brief knock before Daniel opened the bedroom door. He was only dressed in a robe."Bring her inside."
"Let me help you." Aiden Cole reach to steady him. He noticed the red stain appearing on the shirt. "You are bleeding.""Where did you come from" Denver pulled away from his uncle."I was on my way to see my bitch sister. But it seems you need help.""Did you see Raven?""No.""Where did they take her?""I don't know. I have been sitting outside but noticed no one leaving." Aiden said looking towards the camera pointing their way."She must be inside then." Denver said gritting on his teeth. He start walking painfully towards the front door. He can feel the blood warming his skin under the shirt."You need to stop that bleeding." Aiden slowly followed."I should go and greet them." Cathy stood."Search for that girl. I am sure she is somewhere in the mansion with either or both that fools."Catht slipped out of her computerized room. She school her face into looking concern.Daniel looked at the woman reaching for his dick. He can't believe his luck. He has come to the opinion that Cat
