*DRAVEN*“What the fuck do you mean she got kidnapped? How could that happen?” I asked storming in the room unable to decipher the message I had been sent. It was hard for me to believe that Silia got kidnapped in the short distance between the diner and the café that she had to make to meet Alfeo.I had been so careful with her protection all this while then how could a few minutes of her away from my eyes had caused this to happen?Was it Lisa behind this again?I couldn’t make sense of my thoughts. They clouded in my head and buzzed around while my heart hammered in my chest wildly at the images of Silia being tied and kept captive. Images of her terrified eyes accusing me of the situation haunted me.I could barely keep my emotions in check and I was pretty sure I was going to murder someone by the end of this day if I was unable to find Silia.“I don’t know what exactly happened but when I reached the café she wasn’t there and when I searched the area for her I found this guy in
*SILIA*I am not aware of whether he knows about Draven or not and I don’t even know if I should let him know about that but I can’t let him off with thinking that it is fine to keep me captive here, to make me… I don’t know what? Fall in love with him?Who does that if they want a woman to like them!“I am sure you know that I am with the Calixes and since you are with the Ravens wouldn’t this be backstabbing your gang if you like the enemy?” I asked, trying to maneuver my way out of this. “I’m sure your boss wouldn’t be happy with this.”“Oh no, he doesn’t mind at all,” he smiled, “For him it is killing two birds with one stone. He wants Draven out of his way and if I have his woman then what better way would that be than to hurt the Don of the Calix?”“So you know that I am with Draven!” I shouted, unable to understand how he could be so relaxed knowing that.“Of course I knew that, I do my research well but I also know that he doesn’t treat you right. Should you really be getting
*SILIA*I don’t know for how long I have been kept captive here but from the meals that I get three times a day I believe that it has been four days now.I had refused to eat in the beginning but Luca wouldn’t take no for an answer and had forcefully fed it to me with a spoon, threatening me to feed it to me with his own mouth if need be me. I might have called bluff if it was anyone else but he seemed weirdly excited when he proposed that and I couldn’t afford to check whether he would really go through with it or not.I am pretty sure I would vomit all over him and make him do something worse than what he already does.“How is my beautiful lady?” the metal door creaked open with the horrifying sound of that one man who I had come to hate almost as much as Lisa.I didn’t respond back bracing myself for a kiss or a grope like he usually would. My eyes closed and since I had lost my freedom on the second day of trying to make a dash for freedom when he had opened the door I stayed tied
*SILIA*The unbolting of the heavy metal door made me slightly wary as I felt fear and hatred shift in my heart to make it race faster than before.Luca’s smiling face greeting me again and asking me to love him was already making me feel the stress of the situation, although this was all the human interaction I had in this confined place I dreaded every minute of it.“Madam? Are you awake?” the sweet voice of Lily came through, making my overdrive heart calm down a little.“Lily? You are alive? I thought something happened to you when I never saw you again after that day,” I croaked, feeling happy to see the face of the meek blonde who had brought me food the first day when I had captured. I had refused to eat then and sent her back after which Luca had stormed in forcing me to eat it while making me wonder if he had hurt Lily in any way for her to have been absent after that day.“Fortunately I am a sister of a loyal gang member so nothing happened to me,” she said, understanding ex
*SILIA*When my eyes watered enough to get out the soot and dust I blinked it rapidly to get my vision right only for me to shut it close once again at the spectacle before me.Was that what I thought it was?Shuddering from what I had seen I slowly opened my eyes to see a single cut hand bleeding and detached strewn on the ground near the rubble undoubtedly belonging to Lily.“No. No. No! This can’t be, Lily!” I shouted struggling in my seat to get out of my ropes and somehow go and search for her. I wanted to believe that the hand wasn’t hers and I wanted to believe that she was safe but the gut wrenching sight before me wasn’t helping the case even a little bit.In my struggle and my worry to get out of my bounds I fell from my chair and tried to somehow shift towards the debris, to do something but soon after I smelt a pungent odor as blood seeped out from under the pile of cement.“No! Lily! Please!” I shouted somehow wishing to see her or even hear her say something.There was n
*DRAVEN*“How the fuck is this possible?” I shouted, the expensive glass crashing against the wall, the shattering sound reverberating through the men standing before me. They flinched and almost instinctively took a step back.They feared me but of course this much wasn’t enough.Taking out my gun I shot the person who had just informed me about their failure.It's almost going to be a week soon and they still haven’t found Silia. It seemed like being with Silia had made me a little more amiable and tolerable. They must have forgotten who I was before she had come along and what a monster I became when she was gone. This would teach them to know how important she was for their own safety.The bullet didn’t make a noise because of the silencer but once he fell down and blood seeped through his clothes the rest of the men rose up in a chant for mercy and forgiveness.“If you don’t want to end up like him then go and search for her! Don’t dare come back until you have find her or at lea
*DRAVEN*“I am sorry but we had to pull our men back,” Alfeo said as soon as we reached there.“What happened here?” I asked, slamming the door in frustration, understanding well enough that even though we had got the place right, we had been a little late.Smoke rose up from different directions and when I took a few steps closer I could see that the entirety of one side of the mansion had been blown up with bricks fallen here and there. There were bodies strewn here and there like logs. Crumbled walls with fires still burning in a few places.“Wear this, the police and reporters will get here soon,” Diana said, bringing a cap and a set of sunglasses for me, making me notice only then that they had worn their own too with masks. Putting on the items along with a mask that I carried with myself.The police weren’t there yet and neither was the media but there were people crowding around the area chattering and watching while I recognized a few men of The Ravens hiding and lingering in
*SILIA*When I came back to my senses I found myself in a room that distinctively looked like a motel. I couldn’t be very sure though and so staying put I pulled myself up into a sitting position only for the door to open with a bang and make my heart jump out of my mouth as I slipped back down.“Finally you are awake,” Luca said with a smile as he locked the door behind him and rushed up to me and sat down on the edge of the bed, “Are you feeling better?”I was disappointed when I saw his face, hoping that it had only been a dream when I had thought it was him that had come to save me. I really wished that it was Draven.“Yes but I still feel queasy,” I said, making him get up and give me some bottled water to drink. I know I shouldn’t trust what he gave me but he looked really relieved to see me awake and I was thirsty.“You scared me when you fainted like that,” he mumbled, taking the bottle from me when I was done drinking.“Is Lily alright?” I asked, my voice feeble from the exha
