Ethan POV
“Where the hell is she?” - I ask pacing around the office
Mike is sitting on the sofa on his phone. Raphael is barking orders to his phone as well.
Gabriel walks in without knocking and closes the door behind him.
“Okay, so, two people surrounded her when she left here last time, she got into a limo, we run the plate and it’s fake” - He says and I pass my hands through my hair.
Fuck fuck
“It’s been two weeks” - Mike says standing up and walking to the bar pouring himself a drink.
“This is no normal kidnapping, there are no demands” - I say
Amelia POVHere I am sitting on this horrible mattress. It smells horribly here. I don’t have a bathroom. They only gave me a bucket to do my needs and it was never emptied. Food and drink have been brought regularly. But since I got to meet Rupert I haven’t been tied up again. The room has no windows and only a really dim light.I hear footsteps and I stand up. Here I am. Another beating on the way. That’s all they do now. They send different people every couple of hours and I fight them. They all look worse than me, but hey, I was trained for this. I bet I don’t look great right now. My hair is probably all greasy and it stinks. I have cuts and bruises all over my body. But my adrenaline to figure out a way to get out of here keeps me going.

Ethan POV“Did you come alone?” - Harry asks me and I nod my head. I know they are about to storm in. They will kill everyone on sight and then ask questions.“Good, finish her” - Harry says and I see two guys walking to Amelia. I can see the fear in her face for the first time ever. I can’t cope with that look in her face so I start to try and free myself but they point a gun at Amelia’s head. Shit. Shit. Hurry up, Raphael. I see Amelia crying and I wink at her. Exactly at the same time, we start hearing guns going and it’s like fucking war again. I battle my own demons with the noise. It brings me back to all the missions I’ve done especially the last one. The one that fucked me up big time. I flinch at the sounds
Ethan POVI walk out of the bathroom and I rest my back against the closed door. I take a deep breath passing my hands through my face and then my hair. Shit shit. How am I going to tell them without them freaking out and barging in the bathroom to make sure she is okay? I know I should stay quiet about the assault but I can’t. They need to know what she’s going through. I walk to the front room and Raphael is sitting on my armchair while Gabe is sitting with Mike on the sofa“Hey, Ethan” - Mike says shaking my hand when I get closer to him.“Hi Mike” - I reply“I hope you don’t mind me comin
Amelia POVIt’s been a few days since I got home and I still can’t get myself out of Ethan’s house. I feel safe and secure here. Not that I am afraid because I am not. I know that daddy has people guarding this place and if I go out I will have security. Daddy will never let me be alone now. And besides, I know Ethan would follow me anywhere. I have been on autopilot and a routine. My days are all the same. Wake up and have a shower. Get dressed in something comfortable and have breakfast. Sit in the living room watching some tv. Have lunch and go to the bedroom to read for a little bit. Avoid all phone calls or texts. Go back to the living room to watch some more tv. Have dinner. Talk to Ethan for a little bit and then go to sleep. I made sure Ethan goes to work every day. I can’t handle him being around me all day. I do l
Ethan POVIt's been a couple of months since the kidnapping and Amelia is finally going back To work. I couldn’t be prouder of her. She has joined me in the gym after deciding to go after the British mafia. We have been training a lot. Her fighting skills improved a lot and she is more confident about her fighting. We were training shooting as well but that she is perfection. Never missing the target and always doing what she was setting up herself to do. Gabe had been helping her with strategies and offering some of his soldiers to help her target the British. She is becoming so focused that sometimes it scares the shit out of me. Gabe and Raphael are obviously happy with Amelia taking over the British mafia, it’s one less group to compete with them.
Ethan POVAfter Sandy left I couldn’t stop thinking about what was happening. How was I going to tell Mel that I was going to be a father? How am I going to explain Sandy to her? Sandy was never anything serious. I never called her my girlfriend. She was always someone I could just have fun with with no strings attached. I never liked one night stands with people I didn’t know. So we became kind of friends with benefits. But then she became too clingy and I sent her away. I am not proud of this but I ghosted her. And now. The ghost from my past appears in front of me with a baby that she claims it’s mine. I made up my mind and I am not telling Amelia anything about it until we do the DNA test. I will book it tomorrow. I just hope the results come back fast. Fuck.
Ethan POVAmelia got home around midnight and I was already in bed. My mind is completely mushed and I don’t want to worry her so I pretend to be asleep. She walks quietly into the bathroom and I hear her turning the shower on. I try and clear my brain and sleep but I wasn’t successful. Tomorrow I will be booking the DNA test and then we can go have it done. I need to sort this out and then I can tell Amelia. I don’t like hiding anything from her. She’s learning to trust me after the kidnapping and I don’t want to ruin that progress. Amelia walks back into the bedroom and I close my eyes again. She lays down next to me. I feel her hand caressing my hair. She is so sweet. I open my eyes and s

Amelia POVToday is my wedding day and I couldn’t be happier. I can’t wait to be Mrs Wood. Yes, I am dropping the Lockwood name. We have been through so much to get to here. All the time we had to spend apart pretending that I hated him broke my heart. I remember as if it was yesterday how happy I was when I was finally able to hug him again. Kiss those beautiful lips. He is the love of my life. And him coming into my life the way he did was just ironic. Father not liking him. His connection to the British mafia without him knowing. I still remember our first kiss. His hands-on my body still cause me to feel butterflies in my stomach. I guess that when you love somebody that keeps happening. I keep falling in love with him every day. He is the most amazing thing that happened in my life. And h

Amelia POVI walk into the safe house and I feel anxious. I stop near the door and I rest my back against the wall closing my eyes and taking deep breaths. “Mel? Hey, hey, what’s wrong?” - Gabe asks as I slide down the wall and sit on the floor hugging my legs“I- I can’t breathe” - I let out“Come on” - Gabe says grabbing me and carrying me on his lap to my bedroom. It’s amazing how he kept it. Even after moving the safe house to a new location, he brought my bedroom. I love it. He places me on the bed and I take a deep breath but no air comes in or out. Tears stream down my face.“What’s going on?” - he asks me
Amelia POVThe party is absolutely beautiful. Mom put a lot of effort into it. Everything is exactly how I always dreamed it would be. My ring is perfection and my men. Well. He is my pillar. The speeches were hilarious. Mike and Gabe did one together and they made me laugh and cry at the same time.“Amelia used to say that she would become a princess one day. She said she would get married to a prince. I’m sorry sis but I think you got the frog” - I laugh while I remember Gabe’s words.“Sis, we hope that Ethan is man enough to say no to you, because I know for a fact that I am not” - Mike said and I still feel tears rolling down my face because of that.

I tightened my grip on Amelia’s hand and she looks at me not really understanding what’s happening.“Alex” - I say shaking his hand “Congratulations” - he says looking at me and Amelia. “Thanks” - she replies dryly. I keep a hold of his hand and squeeze it hard. I can see he is uncomfortable by the look he is giving me. Gabe approaches us from behind Amelia.“Alex, a word?” - he says and I let go of his hand.Alex walks

I didn’t want to risk it and Amelia seeing it.We had agreed on no engagement ring. She says she doesn’t want one but I know that deep down she does. The ring is absolutely stunning. All diamonds.

As I wake up I look at my beautiful bride to be. She is already showing and she looks amazing. Her small bump makes her even more irresistible than before. I can’t keep my hands off of her a

Once I close the door behind me I walk into the walking closet and I grab a pair of jeans and that’s when I start hearing shouting and gunshots. Shit.I know the drill.
