DAISY’S POVWe both headed to the room, and I stepped into the bathroom to wash up. I couldn’t help but grin from ear to ear, each time the beautiful moment we just had, flashed before my eyes.I washed my hair one more time, and then turned off the shower.On stepping out of the bathroom, into the bathroom, Max had also freshened up. I guess he used the bathroom in one of the other rooms.“Here comes the beauty.” He uttered, with a smile on his face. My cheeks went hot a little, and my eyes fell to the ground, finding it a little difficult to make eye contact with him.Then my phone buzzed and I walked over to the bed to pick it up. “A video message?” I uttered under my breath, then opened it.A sharp gasp escaped my mouth as I saw my precious little daughter in the hands of supposed murders. “Mommy! Help me!” She cried out loud, in tears.Max overheard the scream, and stood up immediately to join me, out of curiosity.“What’s this?” He questioned as he hadn’t gotten what was happ
DAISY’S POVMax opened the text, and I stared at it, with him, and to our dismay, the response was a big hit to our hopeful hearts.“To hell with you!”My heart felt slashed by a sharp sword, and I could barely breathe.“Sh*t!” Max cursed out, sharply, and then rose to his feet.He dashed out of the room, and I got up to my feet as well, and followed after him to know what he was up to, next.On getting to the living room, Nicholas had just walked up to him.“I need you to track the caller, right now.” He instructed Nicholas, in a tone of seriousness.“On it.” Nicholas responded as he got on his laptop, and tapped at the keys, as fast as he could.He seemed to be good at such things, and I hoped deeply in my heart that they would be traceable. I couldn’t bear to imagine what they could have done or what they were doing, currently to Nadia.After a while of tapping, Nicholas let out a sigh of relent, and shook his head.“It’s impossible, Max. They seem to be experts as they have blocke
MAX’ POV“Have you been able to get any update on him?” I asked, as Nicholas walked into the living room.He shook his head, lightly, and sighed. “I used all kinds of process, and procedures, even expert hackers as well, still, no positive result. I couldn’t track the sender.” Nicholas informed me.Hearing this, only got me more infuriated. I had skipped work, because Nadia’s life was more important, and even apart from sending Nicholas to do his job, and other things, he was also trying his best from his own end.“No! Sh*t!” He voiced out, frustratingly, and even punched the wall.“Please you have to calm down.” Nicholas uttered, looking really concerned about my current state.“How am I supposed to be calm when I don’t know what exactly they are doing to my daughter, at this moment.” I said as I connected the heel of my palm on my forehead, and dragged it down the chin.“You don’t have to worry. I believe we’re going to find her. “Nicholas assured me as he patted my shoulder.Then I
DAISY’S POVImmense joy flowed in my heart, and thoughts about how I would hug Nadia so bad, ran through my head quickly.“So, did they inform you of the time they want you to bring them the ransom?” I asked, sounding impatient.“Uhm… They haven’t informed me on that. But I have a plan. There’s no way I’m letting them off the hook for doing such to my daughter.”“What plan do you have in mind?”“I’m going to double-cross them, obviously. Just when they think I’m coming alone, and then giving them the money they ask for, I will give them the surprise they never expected, in the first place.” He revealed to me, and I nodded my head slowly, in acknowledgement.I felt assured that things were going to go well, and those abductors would face their end. I watched as he put a call through, to the cops, and I hoped they would find whatever idea he had, possible to play out.He had asked them to act like different passers-by, who don’t know whatever could be going on, and it was certain that t
MAX’ POV“Daisy! Daisy!” I called out to her as I bent to pick her up.I touched her pulse, and she was breathing, which made me feel relieved a little, but at the same time, I felt a surge of anger that I had to growl so loud to vent my anger out.It broke me to see Daisy suffering, and the thought of Nadia, being injected with a mixture of the deadliest poison on earth. The immense pain she would feel was going to be more than the one I felt for her, currently.“Let’s go home.” I ordered my men, and we all got into the car, then drove back.On getting home, I placed Daisy back on drip, and patted her head while she was sleeping. She had gone through a lot, in the last few days, and I knew that no number of soft words I could say to her, was going to make her feel better.At this point, I didn’t know what else to do. I walked back to the living room where Nicholas was sitting, also racking his brain for something else we could do.“These people are really after getting you hurt. It c
DAISY’S POVIt was evening already, and so much tears had been shed to an extent that my eyes were giving me a burning sensation. Yet, more tears streamed down my eyes as I thought more and more of what they could be doing to my daughter.I dreaded the next message they were going to send to me was going to be Nadia’s dead body. There was no way I could bear that. I wouldn’t feel alive, anymore; neither would I forgive myself for not being able to protect her, regardless of if I was present, or not.“Goodness.” I muttered under my breath as I kept waiting, for a message from them.The time was 8pm, and that was obviously late into the night, so why would they not have sent a message, at all? Did they change their mind, or were they cooking something different, up?I looked towards my window, staring at the night sky, pleadingly, hoping that I would hear nothing but good news. Hour by hour, time passed, even until 11pm, and yet, no news. I couldn’t think straight anymore, and so many
JEZEBEL’S POVI was still feeling the pain of the mistake which those men had made, last night, and I just couldn’t get over it. Even what I had to do to them, still annoyed me, as well, because now wasn’t the time to waste men.~flashback~“Gosh! You. Silly. Scumbags!” I yelled as I kicked the three of them, one by one, out of anger.“We’re sorry, ma’am.” They apologized, in a trembling tone.“What the hell! How could you make such a silly mistake!” I yelled at them, at the top of my voice.“We’re sorry, ma’am. We felt she wouldn’t be able to escape as we had already injected her with the poison.”“She managed to escape from here, and yet, we still can’t find her, outside. Can you just see how much this mistake of yours, has cost?” I questioned them, feeling my blood boil, and unable to see how possible it was, for me to calm down.Venting my anger on them, wasn’t enough. I had to spill blood.I brought out a gun, pointed it at them, and shot them, one by one, until they fell dead.~
MAX’ POVMy phone rang, and when I brought it out of my pocket, I discovered it was Jezebel who was calling me, so I answered the call.“Hey, baby.” She spoke, with so much joy, felt in her voice.I walked towards the balcony, and stepped out to take her call.“Hi love. How are you doing?” I asked as I dipped my other hand into my pocket.“I’m okay. I was missing you so much, today, so I had to call, to check up on you.” She said, and chuckled.I smiled, and sighed.“What’s wrong, baby?” She asked, noticing the difference in my behavior.“A lot happened, while you weren’t around.”“What do you mean by that? What’s going on, babe?” She asked again, sounding concerned.“Nadia was abducted, and was even poisoned, as they already told us they were going to finish her off, last night.”Jezebel let out a sharp gasp. “Are you for real?” She questioned, sounding like she was finding it difficult to believe me.“You know there are no jokes when it comes to topics like this. She could have give
