CHAPTER FOUR

Seth's POV

I watched as she scrambled to get away from me, it was too late..... I came here to clear my head and stop thinking about all the things that have been bothering me. At least that was what I thought until I saw her

''Wow bro......that's a new accomplishment, you managed to shock a girl into unconsciousness'' said Raymond who has been trying to set me up with a girl for a while now

''She is beautiful, talk about a damsel in distress..... I wonder where she came from'' he continued trying to get my attention but I was only focused on her

Does she know how helpless and fragile she looks right now, I bent down and carefully checked on her

Raymond still tagging behind 'it looks like you know her bro, don't tell me she is the one that got you all twisted' when I didn't reply he chuckled

I came to see Raymond because I knew that with him around I am sure to be surrounded by all kinds of women and I needed any kind of distraction, he did try this time around I must commend him but none of them lasted for a few minutes before I dismissed them.

I thought of drinking for a while before going back to the villa only to have her barging in like she owns the place and offering herself up like a tantalizing meal on a platter of gold.

She looked all flustered and disheveled so I checked her just to be sure she was still breathing.

"What was she doing here and who was chasing her?" These were the questions I needed answers to.....

"Check who was chasing her and what the whole commotion outside is all about" I ordered one of my men and then lifted her up to a quiet part of the room

She was light, very light for someone her age. I had noticed her reduction in weight the last time I saw her at the office but I never knew it was much worse than I anticipated. Why will she let herself go like this does she not care about her self?

She looked really out of it, sliding in and out of consciousness here and there, she was definitely drugged, does she not know what goes on in private rooms?

I remembered her desperate plea for help when she came into the room, she must have been really scared. What if she ended up in another room with a bunch of drunk creeps.

"How naive and irresponsible can she possibly be to not care about her safety at all and why the hell am I so angry'' I thought to my self fuming with my palms fisted

What do I care at least now I know how easy it is going to be to get her exactly where I want her.

"Boss"....said the guy I ordered to check the situation as he waited for a confirmation before he continued

I stood up from where I crouched down to look at her and turned to him "She was with Don Gustavo alone and they are currently looking for her"

Immediately we heard a knock at the door, I quickly reached for my coat and covered her even though the section she was in was well covered.

The room was built in a way that it had an inner section, it was meant for the owner of the restaurant for when he wanted to cool off but Raymond didn't mind giving it up when I told him I needed to cool off.

They would have to be insane to look for her here? I came back to the outer section and nodded my head as a sign for one of my men to open the door while taking my seat, whoever that person is should better have a good reason for knocking.

"Sorry sir, we had a little problem in the restaurant tonight and we just wanted to make sure your room was not affected" said the little waiter boy he obviously looked new or he would not have dared to

While my men tried to dismiss him I suddenly felt interested in their little scheme. That bastard Gustavo really doesn't have a limit

"What kind of problem are we talking about" I asked and that was when he recognized my presence

"One of our guests seemed to have lost his partner and he says she was sick so we wanted to be sure she didn't enter the wrong room" he answered

"So what have you done so far'' fully focused on him I continued my question, it was as if Raymond knew to stay put for now

"Well we've checked other rooms but no sign of her"

" That seems serious, don't you need to call your manager to better access the situation, it doesn't look that simple and can bring in a court case later on" if he was even a little bit smart he would have caught on or else he knew exactly what happened

".....Didn't you consider the possibility of the young lady having gone home, I mean it's pretty late and if she was sick she probably just wanted to go home and rest"

" Well we did but she couldn't have without the....." and then he stopped, either he has realized what was going on or he realized that he almost let it slip

"Well sir I'm sorry for disturbing your night it's quite obvious that she is not here" he said and quickly scurried away

I turned to Raymond and without saying a word he responded " I will look into it and get back to you" that was all I needed to hear

I went towards the little cherry sleeping on the couch, scooped her into my arms and made for the door, my men did not need me to say a word for them to know that it was time to leave

I felt it was good to avoid Don Gustavo and his men for now because I feel I am going to do something stupid if I should run into him.

Raymond led us through his private exit where one of my men met us with the car.

I contemplated between taking her to the hospital and taking her home, finally settling on taking her to my house I called my doctor and explained the situation to him requesting him to meet us at the house as soon as possible.
