The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 124Ben’s point of viewIt’s been 24 hours, and still, there is no sign of Mishka. I’m getting worried now, and I dread to think of what she’s going through, and I need to find her soon.I’m pacing the room when Jake walks in,“Hey, brother, how are you doing? Are you okay?” He asks“Fuck no…I need to be doing something. I need to be out there looking for her. I feel so fucking hopeless,” I say.Jake nods, “I know, Ben... We will find her that I promise you. I have every available member out looking for her besides the experts I’ve brought in. They will find something soon. There will be a trace somewhere. Just hold on, brother.”I sigh as I reply, “I don't think I can do this, Jake…I’ve seen what he’s already done to her.”He places a hand on my shoulder. “I know Ben…Believe me, and I know exactly what you're going through right now. We will find her, and when we do, she’s going to need you more than ever. That’s why I think you're better here wi
The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 126Ben’s point of viewWe make our way down to the meeting room, and I stop at the door as I look around the room. To my shock, there must be at least 300 people in the room. My jaw drops to the floor as Jake points to a chair at the large front table and says,“Please take a seat, Mrs Harris.”I pull out her chair before taking the seat beside her; Jake stands at the front facing everyone as he says,“I’d like to thank you all for coming today. I know that you've all been advised of our missing lady Mishka Ivanov and also by the fact that she is being held by Dimitri Lebedev. Well, today, we have some good news. Let me introduce Ivy Harris to you all. Ivy is Dimitri’s housekeeper and has agreed to help us rescue Mishka .”He turns to look at Adam as he says, “Adam?”“Yes, Boss”, Adam replies, leaving Jake to continue talking.“I need you to get us plans of the house where Mishka is being held” He slides across a piece of paper, which I’m assumin
The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 127Mishka’s point of viewI’ve been on my own for most of the day. Mrs Harris went out this morning with the promise of finding Ben and Swift security. I can only pray that she somehow finds him without Dimitri finding out.I’ve just finished the sandwich she left me for my lunch this morning. I haven't dared to leave the room, though, apart from the occasional toilet break, but that's only to the adjoining bathroom.It’s been a long and lonely day, and it makes me realise just how much I've begun to rely on Mrs Harris, not just for food and everything else she does but for her company. I listen to the clock as the seconds tick by. It’s two pm now, and the minutes are dragging on, but at least Dimitri has not been around again, and for that, I am incredibly thankful. My heart drops when the door opens; praying it's not him, I breathe again when I hear Mrs Harris call out,“It’s only me, Mishka.”She walks into the room, looking around as she whi
The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 128Mishka’s point of viewI use all of my strength to bring him down. I have to do something. I can’t let him hurt Ivy. She doesn't deserve it, not when all she's been trying to do is to help me; Dimitri hits the ground hard, and I quickly jump up as more and more of Dimitri’s men come into the room.I push Ivy behind me as I look around for something, anything that I can use as a weapon, before picking up a glass jug from the bedside table.Dimitri laughs as he looks up at me, “It seems as though my kitten has grown some claws. What are you going to do with that Mishka? Pour me a drink.”I look down at him; funny how he seems so small right now, and I laugh back as I slam the jug down onto the corner of the table before picking up a large jagged piece.I know this won't end well for me, but boy does it feel good to stand up to my monster. I've finally found the courage to fight back, and there is no way I’m backing down now.His eyes go wide as
The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 129Ben’s point of viewThanks to Ivy turning up today, we are heading to the house where Dimitri is holding Mishka hostage. Jake is driving, and I’m in the passenger seat next to him as we lead the Swift convoy; he turns to me as he says,“You okay?”I nod before replying, “Yeah, I just want that fucker to pay”We pull up a little way back from the house in an unmarked van. Adam has already hacked into Dimitri’s security cameras, and we can see what’s going on inside. Mishka is currently inside a cage in one of the upstairs bedrooms as much as this makes my blood boil. I know that for the time being, she’s safe and out of his way.Adam talks over my shoulder from the rear of the van,“Dimitri has just entered the house; he’s in the kitchen talking to Ivy”, He says.I clench my fist at the mention of his name. I am so ready to end that Fucker now.“Fuck”, Adam mutters, and I turn my head to look at him as I say, “What?”“He asked Ivy to bring Dimi
The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 130Mishka’s point of viewZane grins as he drags a crying Dimitri down the cellar steps; I know how much those concrete steps hurt when you are pulled down them on your knees!Ben looked confused when I first said it, but when he looked me in the eye, I saw the understanding there as he asked me if I was sure.“Yes”, I replied, an answer I did not need to reconsider.I am not weak, and I’ve suffered at Dimitri’s hands; now it's my turn to show Dimitri how strong I am, how strong he has made me, and how he could never break me the way I’m about to break him.Ben chuckles as he hears Dimitri crying out, begging not to be taken to the cellar, but we both know that nothing is going to save him now.Ben still holds me tight. It’s amazing how much strength that gives me, the strength that I take from him. He finally pulls away as he whispers in my ear,“Are you okay beautiful?”I look up at him and reply, “I am now.”He takes my lips in a gentle kiss a
The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 131Ben’s point of viewMy heart breaks as I realise just what Dimitri put her through; I have to hold myself back, knowing how much she needs this; I chuckle when the room lets out a gasp as she forces the massive vibrato up his ass as she says.“I told you no, over and over again. You never listened to me, yet you think I should listen to you. You are nothing but a coward that prays on innocent young girls.”I clench my fists by my side as I watch her start to break down, knowing that this is taking its toll on her already tired body. She reaches back to squeeze my hand before walking back towards the cabinet, and I squeeze her hand, hoping it gives her some sort of comfort. I can sense that she’s beginning to get tired now.She takes out a thick leather belt which a large silver buckle running her hand over the leather as she turns to Dimitri and says,“Now, this one hurts like a bitch; try not to cry.”And I watch as she swings the belt throug
The Swift Security SeriesBenChapter 132Ben’s point of viewWhen we finally make it back to the bunker, Jake leads the convoy into the underground parking garage as Mishka is still fast asleep on my lap. Jake jumps out first before he opens the door for me. I keep Mishka in my arms as I climb out of the van, knowing she must be absolutely shattered after everything she has been through these past few days.She mutters something in her sleep that I can't quite make out, and I whisper softly back to her,“It’s okay, baby, I got you, Your safe now, Mishka”, smiling to myself as I feel her relax back into my arms as we make our way to the medical room, where I place her down on the narrow bed as gently as possible.Laila and Adam follow us inside as Laila says, “We need to take a look at your back, Mishka. Will that be okay?”Her eyes flicker open as she replies, “Yeah….I want Ben to stay, though.”Laila gives me a knowing smile as she says, “Of course, he can stay, sweetie.”I help Mi
