“Argh!” Chloe sputtered, slowly fluttering her eyes open gasping for breath. “What the hell…?”

Ice cold water that threatened to move off a few of her brain cells courses down her body, shocking her awake.

Trying to move her body, she discovered that she was being held captive unable to move from the waist down as her body was bound by several ropes. “Fuck…ing move!” she cursed, trying to dislodge the ropes.

“Good. She's awake.” A male voice rang out, making her head snap up so fast.

In the cold, harsh light of the day, the guy was almost unrecognizable but that shirt …

“I know you…” she mumbled, watching him carefully as he walked towards her. “From last night..” Suddenly, it clicked in and her eyes widened as she tried to scramble back but there was nowhere else for her to run to.

He was the leader of the gang that had tried to kidnap her yesterday…

No, wait, if she was bound and tied up then that means, they'd succeeded in capturing her.

The guy wasn't wearing a mask to shield

    “Have you found her yet?” Sean asked his friend, Ivan the same question he's asked in the last twenty minutes.Ivan just shook his head, heaving a sigh. “You just asked me that same question less than two minutes ago, I've told you that I'm still working on it.”“But the security cameras on the street should have locked something up!” He groaned, worried out of his mind about Chloe. It's been well over twenty four hours since she was last seen or heard from and only god knows what she's currently going through. “Someone rewound the tapes about halfway through so there's nothing on there, I told you before.” Ivan sighed, rubbing at his temples.Sean realized that his constant hovering might drive Ivan nuts, plus the fact that he wouldn't find Chloe on time.“I'm sorry, I'll move back. I know I'm driving you nuts, it's just..”“You can't bare the thought of anything happening to Chloe, can you?” Ivan looked at him sympathetically. “Do you know anyone that would want to hurt Chloe?

    A day before…“Your chai tea, ma'am.” Amber opened one eye, spotting one of her maids bent over to offer the drink to her, with smoke billowing from the top indicating that it was freshly made.Amber flipped her legs to the side in excitement, reaching for the drink. The smooth and well-grounded chocolate taste melted on her tongue, making her eyes roll to the back of her head. The effect was so orgasmic that she had to groan out loud.“Oh, my gosh Porsha, this tastes so damn good!” She exclaimed, smiling so hard that her teeth might fall off. “Did you use that technique that I taught you?”Porsha scratched at her chin, looking uneasy. “My name is Portia ma'am, not Porsha, and yes I did use your favourite recipe.”Usually Amber would harp on about the correction but the tea put her in such an upbeat state, that she let it slide. “Whatever your name is, it is cool by me. Thank you for the tea, I'll let you know if I need more.”A smile fixed on her face, Amber watched Portia leave cont

    Amber was so shocked at Maeve’s words that she nearly spat out the drink that was already halfway down her stomach. Carefully putting the drink down so she didn't tip it over, she looked at Maeve. “Honestly, I don't know if I should be annoyed or marveling at your guts. What makes you think that I had anything to do with your sister or the fact that we're connected?”“For one, I'm not some dumb bimbo that you can try to run tracks around…I know she was coming to see you the night that she disappeared. It didn't take much for me to connect the dots.”Amber sat up, shocked once again. “Wait, what do you mean by ‘disappeared’?”“Exactly as it sounds,” Maeve said. “Two nights ago, my sister was supposed to meet you wasn't she?”“How did you know that?” Amber asked warily.I've known for a while that she was doing something illegal or fishy that didn't sit well with me, and your name was always at the center of it.” Maeve rambled. “I saw your name on her phone.”“So you connected the dots

    Present DaySean's mouth dropped open, his eyes wide. He had to blink repeatedly to be sure that he wants seeing double. He stopped suddenly, so fast that Andrea nearly plowed into his back.“That's her, sir! The lady who wanted to talk to you!” She whispered or tried to, her voice was loud enough. “I can tell she's the one, thank you, Andrea, you may leave.”Sean didn't turn around but the shuffling of feet amid the mild protests informed him that she had left. Facing Amber whom he never thought he'd see again, he was curious to know why she was here. “Amber…I would say it's lovely to see you again but I have the feeling that you might not share the same sentiment.”“I'm afraid I'm not here for a courtesy visit,” Amber said calmly. She was dressed up in a power suit, her hair swept back into a high ponytail. A designer bag and shoes completed her outside with a diamond necklace peeking out from her neckline. “You want to go somewhere private to talk?” He half turned, ready to show

    The screech of the doorway jolted Chloe up from her slumber. Since sleep was all she could do these days, her eyes flew open immediately hungry to feast on something other than the dreary state of this place. It was Drake, walking in with her meal just on time. For kidnappers, they fed her remarkably well three times a day.“Hey, stranger.” Drake smiled at her as he approached, his dimples popping out. She returned the effort, the weight on her chest lifting when he walked in. If it wasn't for Drake, she might have gone mental just a little bit.During her food breaks, he would extend it by an hour or two just to keep her company. He's dry jokes and witty humor always uplifted her spirit and for the first couple of days it kept her afloat pushing away thoughts of the future but after almost a week, she needed something more.She needed to know the truth.“Hey, what's on the menu?” She sniffed the air just as the food came down. Usually he was supposed to tie her hands and legs so sh

    Initially, when the door was first kicked open, Chloe thought it was one of the other goons, which she hadn't seen since that first night that they'd kidnapped her but when the guy stepped in, the first thing she noticed was the shoe, since the rest of his figure was in the dark.Hid end, quality loafers…the kind that costs about $1000 per pair.Immediately, she knew that this must be the leader of this rag-tag gang and she stood up straight.Thankfully, her legs were bound and while the rope around her hands was a bit loose, she could handle it in such a way that he wouldn't know.Drake stiffened, moving back two paces when he saw the stranger. “S-sir, I didn't know you would be coming in today.”Today? What does Drake mean by today?Has this guy been coming around and she didn't know about it?This place must be bigger than she initially thought.“I thought I'd come in and see my investment up close.” The stranger's smooth baritone voice rolled out the words.That voice…It sounded

    It turns out that Ivan was up to something, having found a clue in one of the guy's from the CCTV footage.“What's up?” Sean breathes out, rushing into the room. He made sure to see Amber out before rushing down here. “What did you find?”“Look at this guy,” Ivan pointed at the monitor’s screen. “Luckily, for us he turned around and looked directly at the camera. I managed to scan his brain through the police database, hoping I might find something.”Sean took another look at his friend. “I didn't know that you had access to the cops system like that. Color me impressed.”“How do you think I get to be so good at solving my PI cases? All you need is to grease a few hands and it's all set.” He tapped more on the keyboard. “Anyways, the guy's name is Clive Andrews and this is his address. I figured you might need it.”Ivan scribbled the guys address on a piece of paper, handing it over to Sean who skimmed it and folded it up. “Thanks man, hopefully this guy will lead right to Chloe.”Se

    “Any sign of her yet?” Sean asked, crunching on his potato chips. Ivan was looking into the binoculars squinting so he could get a proper view of the house that they were trying to look into. “No, not yet.”“I think we should go in,” Sean suggested.Ivan turned around to look at him as if he was crazy. “Go in and do what? Or have you forgotten that this Camille lady could be armed to the teeth?” He queried. “If she is indeed the one that took Chloe, we need to be careful.”“You're right.” Sean agreed, having glossed over that fact.They spent the next couple of minutes in silence while Ivan was busy watching the house from this distance, trying to get any new information. So far, all they've gathered is that this Camille woman loves ordering pizza. If he was mistaken, she should have ordered at least five pizzas today.After that Clive's youngest brother gave us a tip on Camila, we let him loose with the promise of him not saying anything to anybody about our presence.

    “So you’re going to do the wedding before you start to show? Why not do it after?” Maeve asked as they lay upside down on the couch. She had a permanent smile on her face these days and Amber liked to joke that she was receiving great sex from Ivan. They had been under the covers for way too long and finally announced their relationship over Sean’s takeover dinner last week, of course none of them were surprised even Mrs Lambert had teased them about it. Sean had passed all the requirements and Clement was serving Jail term for the next two years. Sean knew if he came out he would seek revenge again but he was going to gloat in the beauty of having a wife with him, at the end of the takeover night when he was crowned CEO, he went down on one knee and proposed to Chloe.“Sean wants it soon,” Chloe answered, fidgeting with her sheets.“Sean wants it or you want it? You don’t listen to what he says and he does all you ask!” Amber retorted and they laughed.“I don’t think there’s any ne

    The beep from the EKG monitor was the only sound present in the room. Sean had sat just as he was seated throughout the night, holding Chloe’s hands as she received the treatment, the doctors had done a mini surgery and removed the bullet. He also cleaned up the injury and she was still unconscious, Chloe’s eyes had only fluttered open once in the night and the only thing she had said was “Sean” and she went back to sleep.“Are you sure I shouldn’t switch with you? You’ve been keeping watch throughout the night.” Maeve asked him her concern was clear in her eyes. Sean scoffed and shook his head.“No. This is my fault, all of it is my fault and now she is probably fighting for her life.” Maeve sighed. “She's not fighting for her life. The doctor said she’s safe, all that’s left is for her to receive proper treatment. Allow the nurse to stitch up your wounds and let me spend time with my sister.”Her final words did the trick, Sean nodded and stood up, pushing back the chair. “If she

    “Your stupid boyfriend is here! How did he locate us?” Drake panicked as the police officer’s voice sounded from the speaker again. He didn’t know how to act or what to say.“Don’t ask me” Chloe muttered under her breath, feeling her chest bustling with emotions, she was finally going to be away from the shackles of captors and ropes!“You have bad taste in men.” He concluded and she raised an amused brow as he continued. “Listen to me, just agree that you wanted to stay away, that way nobody gets hurt. Not you, not me.” Chloe pretended to be lost in thought. A few seconds before her head snapped up and she looked at him.“No, I won’t be doing that, I'd rather die than let you go scot free and I mean that in every possible way.” She snapped at him and immediately he pulled out a knife again and wrapped his left hand around her neck, he placed the knife on her neck and led them downstairs, Chloe groaned in his hands, acting up to hide this year that she felt when he pressed the knife a

    Sean would remember to give Amber a hug when next he saw her because apparently, she had the foresight to dial 911 and halfway through their pummeling, the cops showed up. The whole place was surrounded, escaping was out of the plan, Clement wanted nothing but to pluck out his brother's eyes but the cops had their own plan which involved he conflict ending peacefully.Everyone of them including Maeve and Amber were placed in the vehicle and driven off to the station. Only Drake and Chloe were not there which made pissed Sean off especially when he had his eyes on her less done twenty minutes ago.His first instinct had been to drag her out of his arms but holding on to Camille had made that impossible. Camille now sat at the corner of the van looking out the window wondering how she had managed to end up in this exact place again. Maeve was all cuddled up on Ivan in a cozy position, and he made a mental note to ask Ivan what was going on between them later.“Amber,” he muttered an

    Waiting for Clement didn’t take long, he came forty minutes later, the sound of his car was the first thing they heard and it was Drake who brought their attention to it. Amber, Maeve and Ivan immediately left, then Sean followed with Camille and stood behind the large banister at the living room exit, hiding his view.Sean's heart was racing at a mile per minute and he prayed that nothing went wrong so they were able to get Chloe. Camille wanted to say something but he pressed his hand over her lips firmly. “If this goes wrong because of you, trust me I will invent ten thousand ways to slowly kill you, so shut up!” He hissed.“If you don’t have something reasonable to say then I swear I will shoot you right here right now” Clement growled as he walked over to where Drake stood with Chloe, he bent toward her and held her chin. “Hello Chloe, I trust they’ve been treating you poorly.” “You don't need to worry about me, it seems you have bigger problems,” she said to him, and he chuckle

    The gun remained on Drake's head and the knife remained on Chloe’s neck as the three of them walked into the building again. If Ivan knew better he would have taken the risk and fought her out of Drake's hands, but who was going to believe a man hardened by life’s many struggles would hesitate to cut his prisoner's neck wide open. The knife to her neck was causing Drake to feel sick in the stomach but his fate would be much worse if he let her go without Clement’s consent. “We’re in here!” Maeve called shakily from what looked like it used to be the living room of the mansion, when the three of them came into full view and Ivan saw that Sean had Camille he dropped his weapon. “What in the hell happened here?” He gasped, subconsciously shielding Maeve from any stray bullets that may be fired.“Sean, Maeve!” Chloe cried out loud, all her emotions concentrated into that one word. She wanted to say more and even run into all their arms but Drake placed his palm over her mouth. Ivan watc

    Their plan was in motion and the girls had proved to be more useful than not. Sean had suggested Trevor stay back while the rest of them spread out in Aviline, a slim in downtown New York.It was a spot where the low or the lower class lived, just like Trevor had described.The young man was more useful than not and Sean was going to make sure he fulfilled his promise, but first…“Have you texted Clement?” Sean asked Ivan and he nodded, in response, bringing out the phone to show him the text.Amber and Maeve were standing a few feet away from them, lost in their own discussion. It was going to surprise Chloe to come out and see that her sister had made a friend in Amber who she originally hated a lot.Ivan flashed the phone in front of him reading the chat out loud.“Yes, you said ‘Chloe is missing, have you heard anything from anywhere that suggests foul play?’” “Well I guess that’s convincing enough.

    “If you honestly say a word, I’ll stuff my hands in your mouth.” Dufus threatened and she was quiet, she had lost strength and zeal, her despair was crawling over her and she wondered how long this torture would have to go on for.After Drake left, he didn't come back and instead they sent this Dufus guy to take over because she hadn't seen him since then almost like Drake couldn't stand the sight of her.From the beats and pieces of conversations that she heard she realized that she was being moved, as they handled her roughly, pushing against her as she got in the car, shoving her roughly into the new space before pulling off a blindfold.This new place that they took her to was even worse than the last, dank corners with rusted irons scattered about. The smell was horrible and she could see that a section of the ceiling was leaking, leaving a puddle on the floor. The conditions were worse than jail and her heart bubbled with hatred for Clement.If she ever saw him, she would proba

    They settled in a corner of the pub, Ivan and Sean on one side and Camille sat pretty opposite, she had the air of someone who felt in charge and her cockiness was enraging Sean.Ivan noticed and patted him on his arms, urging him to remain calm. Ivan leaned forward and pushed one of the beer bottles Fatima had brought, towards her. It was her third bottle.“So, you are here to see your former captor, get a closer look?” Camille asked as she took a large gulp of the lukewarm drink, Sean had taken a bottle and decided he had enough but she was still going at three. It definitely pointed to some kind of celebratory mood.“No actually, we need your help on something,” Ivan told her and Sean watched as his friend delved into an Oscar award-winning act, his face twisting into a concerned one.“Recently, one of our friends went missing, we didn’t know if it was a voluntary ghosting or an actual case so we are being more on the low profile side. She was last seen in this area, I was hoping s
