“Just wait until you see the room!” Noah exclaimed excitedly, like a little kid who just got his first toy on Christmas, as he directed me towards where the presidential suite, with the help of the hotel’s staff of course!

The hotel was truly breath-taking. I had thought that I had seen it all, but apparently that was only a fraction of it!

My doe eyes were wide open in wonder and amazement as I took in the intricate curvings done on the hallways, and how the artwork complemented the old but beautiful Victorian designs.

In my world of amazement, I failed to see the incoming guest, as my feet wobbled. If it were not for the Noah’s hands holding me in place, my lack of balance would have sent me kissing the ground.

After a million ‘I’m fine’s and am okays to Noah,’ I finally turned to look at the one who had almost caused a scene in the middle of the hallway.

“Steve!”

I exclaimed, shocked at my former coworker who was looking at me sorry, as he raised his hand to hand me my fallin

    Suddenly, the air was filled with the warm cinnamon scent, I had earlier whiffed in the hotel’s lobby. Was that person also near the hotel suite with us? Or was I just hungry for a banana muffin with lots of Cinnamon? Similarly, to Noah, I got up and went on and wrapped the hotel’s robe around my body. “Where was that scent coming from and what was taking Noah so damn long! I came to a screeching halt, when a tall daunting man, with visible age lines, walked into our hotel room, the cinnamon scent becoming much stronger! ***The driver! Hayden’s driver? But what was he doing here? My mind raced with questions. My blood was now cold in my veins, as I tightly wrapped the bathrobe around my body. What a coincidence would it be, that Hayden’s driver of all people, would walk into our hotel room! I mean what business would he have here! My heart thumped loudly. The old driver, who had countlessly driven me to school or accompanied Hayden during his impromptu pop ups at the house or

    “Leave. Now!” I screamed at the man, who had not only given me the world but also caused it to crumble. He just stood there, unmoved. In lightning speed, I was pinned to the wall. “Tsk! Leave? There is no way in hell am ever doing that! am not going anywhere.” He sneered. And just like that, I lost my sanity! “Oh my God, stop it! Stop it, Hayden. Just stop with the damn mind games. You have now hurt my friend who has been nothing but nice to me for your selfish ego, yet you don’t even want to help him and now this! When will you stop being so damn selfish!” I cursed, the most curses I had ever cursed my entire life! My eyes were burning with anger, I looked crazy! In my frantic tantrum, I ripped myself off of him, poking him harder on his abdomen with my fingers, hoping to reciprocate whatever I was feeling in my heart. Suddenly, my hand were yanked of his chest, and instead I was back at that damn wall! “Selfish! Selfish! I am selfish?” He repeatedly chanted those words. At f

    “You are a murderer! You fucking murdered him!” I cried at the cold man blankly staring at me his face ridden of any remorse. “Somebody HELP ME!” I screamed for what seemed like the millionth time, ever since I was dragged without my consent, to this forsaken house. I did not even have a clue as to where I was exactly. It wasn’t the same house I had found comfort in. All it had, was very dark walls and a tiny window to remind me of the days that had passed. It was HELL! “Don’t touch me, MURDERER!” I screamed thrashing around the bed, the furthest my chains would let me. “You fucking killed him, Hayden. I hate you!” Like he had done for over the past few days, he completely ignored me, settling on the beige sofa besides the bed. He rolled the tray that the servants had brought, opening it to find it untouched and cold, like it had been routine for the past few days. “Are you planning to starve yourself!” He flared, staring at my empty shell. “It has been two weeks! Bambi, you n

    “Listen Calo, we may have to rush through the process. I have gotten some intel's from my guys, and it looks like the old man has made is about to make his first move!” Colin’s voice boomed through the speakers. “I still do not have the exact details, but you need to start treading carefully from now on!” He continued notifying me on the burner phone. I rubbed my face, sighing, my body completely drained from the stress. “Where are you right now!” If the old man was closing up on us this fast, then I needed to assemble all my best men. Damn it! How did his old brains find about us this fast. “Just around, in the city! Listen Hayden, you need to go back to Italy and pull the strings. We DON’T HAVE MUCH TIME! Have you talked to Monica? We need to get him to sign the papers as soon as possible.! My head was throbbing, “Yes got it! There might have been a minor setback, but I will complete that by this week. Anything else? “Oh! About your woman, keep an eye on her. You were right, I

    “Good, shut the fuck up if you want to get out of here alive!” Monica? But what was she doing her-, “Aahh!” I screamed painfully as the tight and strong chained were uglily ripped off my legs, given them the freedom they had been craving for a long time. Was she...was she? “Quick, put this on. It would camouflage you!” She hastily whispered handing me a black hoodie and a dress, at least that was what I thought with the feel of the fabric and patterns through my hands. “Dammit! Could you get moving! We don’t have all night, unless you want to get caught, that is!” She startled me, causing a subtle amount of adrenaline to spike through my body With that been said, I let my feet feel the lush carpet getting the feel of using my legs after a long while. I wobbled as I tried standing up but was quickly caught by Monica before she pulled down the dress leaving me to get on the hoodie by myself. “Here, you need this if you truly want to get out of here!” I was confused at first, the c

    Hayden’s Pov “Drive faster Dammit!” I roared at my driver, completely agitated as my best tracker; Aiden, fired up on his computer trying to assess the location of her whereabout using the tracking chip that I had installed in her when she was still unconscious. “But sir, am alread-” My driver who is one of the best if NOT the BEST, tried to argue back, which flared me up more as I shot him a dirty look boring a hole deep into his head. He went mute, his lips sealed into a straight line. If he wasn’t among the best, I would have blown his brains off. "Any news?" I asked, my eyes directly trained at Aiden. As if sensing my gaze, he turned to face me, his face boring sad news. "I am sorry boss,the signal is so low I cannot pinpoint its exact location but; Hold on!" He hollered, his eyes churning as he robotically continued to tap at his computer. After a minute, his fingers stop, his face flustered as he turned the computer's direction to me. "The train station!" I bore the same

    “No!” I screamed as my eyes fluttered open frantically. My entire body was moist with sweat, my heart skipping beats, I was scared it was going to lead to a heart attack. Realising that it was just a horrible nightmare, I let out a sigh of relief, taking deep breaths in to calm down my racing heart. Slowly, the adrenaline spike got pumped out of my blood veins and eventually my heart rate came down to a normal pace. It was then that I became aware of my surroundings. It felt like decades had passed when the memories of my kidnapping; the train station, those men, the security guard, all started replaying in my head like an old chaotic film. ‘Ahh!’ I shot up quickly, from the ground, horror clouding my eyes when I took in the dark and rustic room. The air was musty, and dust filled. It was very dim lit too with the only source of light coming from the tiny window located at the corner of the wall, with grills covering it reminding me of the jail that I was in. My hands and feet were

    “Well, Well...well,looks like you two have finally met. The chloroform was not that strong after all.” A rich and harmonious voice graced my ears, with it vibrating at the end as it closed the distance that was between us. The sound was so well spoken and warm, if I didn’t know any better, I would have been entranced by it, hoping to crawl towards it for warmth. However, I could also sense the extensive cold undertones, tones that were so sinister yet hidden carefully within that soothing voice. I do not know why, but suddenly my heart was running a mile. It felt like, at any moment, it would burst from my chest. My body had also gone cold, seemingly the blood that was running in my veins had been wiped dry. The air also felt sinister, it was as though the devil himself had joined us. My head ambivalently shifted towards the frame of the man that had just made his presence, wondering whether it was wise letting him see my fear. What met me, the moment my eyes reached his eyes, was

    “Adrian! Hayden?” I called out frantically to my four-year-old and husband. I continued searching the vast expanse of the sprawling mansion that was our Italian holiday home, my eyes dotting arounds in the hopes of finding them. ‘Where were they?’ I asked myself. One minute, they were with me in the bedroom, patiently waiting for me to get our three-year-old girl ready and the next minute they had completely vanished. The ginormous mansion did not make it easy for me either. “Chiara, hang on to mommy okay. Let’s go find your dadda!” I cooed softly at my little bundle of joy. Her mesmerizing grey eyes shone brightly as she gave me an ear to ear grin happily throwing her arms in the air. Shifting my body to accommodate her small frame in my arms, I kissed her cheeks before resuming my search for my other child and husband. “Dadda! Dadda!” Chiara continued chanting softly, her eyes on the lookout for her favourite human, her dad! She was such a daddy’s girl, even I sometimes got a litt

    “You are leaving?” Lillie asked sadly as she watched me finish packing my bags. Her look was so disheartening, I felt guilty knowing that I was leaving her alone even though she was going through a lot; with her pregnancy and the break up. She hadn’t told me the full story yet, but I suspected that there was another woman involved from the little glimpses of her history she had given me. However, I was still glad, with the help of the therapist we had gotten, she was starting to be herself once more. Hayden was at first adamant when I suggested the idea but after a slight push he agreed. “Yes,” I looked at her with pity. “Listen, if you want I could-” “No, no, noo!” She cut me off, grabbing my hands. “You have already been through a lot, you need a break.” She lovingly hugged me, her hands making sure I never moved a spot. “It is okay, don’t cry. I will always facetime you everyday.” “I know! I know! I am just going to miss having you physically, but you promise you would be back, r

    “You sent her here, pregnant! Are you nuts!” I yelled at the metallic phone, the end speaker sighing in regret. “I know, I know- but she insisted and you know how she is.” I breathed to calm myself down. If he wasn’t my dear friend, I would have murdered him by now. “You know brother you do not need to worry, I know how to take care of my woman. I am always right behind her.” He said with sadness in his voice which made me question, what the hell was up with them. I had definitely noticed the tension and longing in his voice, even though he thought he had carefully hidden. “What is going on between you two? Hang on!” I said, cutting off the line as I had noise approaching the mini office I had at this house. “Yes!” My heart rate calmed down a bit when I noticed that it was just my Bella. “Bambi! My love, what are you doing here?” I asked as I stood up to go and embrace her, she just gave me a tired smile before coming to sit on my lap. It had been a week ever since that incident, a

    The air hung heavy with palpable discomfort. Each passing second, felt like it had stretched to an eternity. I pulled my dress further down as if it wasn’t low enough already. I refused to stare back at Lillie's eyes. I did not want to see the betrayal in them. The ground was interesting enough for me. “Hey, how did you know I would be here?” Hayden broke the silence as he went ahead to embrace his daughter. “Collins told me,” Lillie answered, distractedly as I felt her blue orbs pierce through me. “He shouldn’t have done that. That was a dangerous mistake after he knew what this night was abou-” “I know,” Lillie cut him off, “I was the one who insisted. I wanted to come and comfort you!” Her blue eyes were back to me, questioning me. “How long had this been going on?” Lillie asked, the question directed at me. I pulled my eyes away from the ground as I returned back her stare. Oh my God! I had hurt her. Her eyes were teary, as she looked at me in betrayal. “Lillie, I swear-”

    In the hazy realm between wakefulness and sleep, I could hear loud creaks from a distance. I found myself drifting like a passenger in a moving vehicle, the sensation of motion pulling me further away from consciousness as if journeying to some distant destination. To where, I do not know. I slowly woke up, feeling groggy, only to find myself sitting on a man's lap. Startled, I let out a loud scream and fell backward onto the floor. My heart raced with confusion and fear. "Shh... Calm down my love, you are safe now" I heard a voice say softly, pulling me out of the so-called fog of thought. Cold but hard hands patted me softly on my head pulling me back up, in turn I could feel my nerves unwinding. “Hayden?” I softly called out meeting his beautiful green eyes. They were lowered, watching me attentively and concerned. His eyelashes formed a curtain over them, partially hiding the mesmerizing shade of green. If only he could fall back lower. I thought to myself, then I would get a

    His men were all stoic, showing no sign of emotions on their faces as they guided me to who God knows where. I keenly took in all the doors and corners of the hallways, hoping that I would eventually get a chance to gain my freedom back. However, that felt like a dream, considering the hasty pace the men were walking. In a jiffy, I was being pushed inside a room that looked similar to where I had been imprisoned before but much smaller. The other ten? If I had counted properly went ahead to surround all the corners of the damned small room, making it seem much smaller that it was already. The others remained outside. Holy molly! How was I going to get out of here, if the security was this tight! Ryan, who I presumed was their boss now, went ahead, perusing and scrutinizing every corner and invisible dust speck, before nodding his head satisfactorily. I guessed that this was where we would be staying for the night. The atmosphere was silent among us. Not a word, not even a buzz of a

    When, they came back, not a minute later, the worlds had turned. Hayden was no longer the one in restraints, instead, Lorenzo was, and he was laughing! “Well done! Well done son! Just like how I taught you! Never let them know your next move!” He congratulated, smiling ... proudly? The men in the room had also been replaced, basing my judgement on the unfamiliar faces. “Where had the others ran too?” I inquired myself, blinking my eyes several times to get used to the new found light. It was not after a minute, that my eyes caught on to the lifeless bodies, lying on the floor with a hole on their heads. One who was next to me, had his eyes wide open, but they looked lifeless. I screamed at the horror before my eyes, my heart skipping beats. I felt like vomiting, as the acrid metallic smell of blood and death was too much too handle. I could feel the two pairs of dark eyes, molesting me, with a click of disdain following me. “She doesn’t know who you are, does she?” I could hear Lor
