Running The World With You

Nice rack

I'm awoken by loud knocks on the door downstairs. Lucius is still asleep, so I move his arms from around me and go to see who it is. Assuming it's housekeeping, I'll just send them away.

I put on one of Lucius shirts and the biker shorts I was wearing around the house. I trudge downstairs, still half asleep.

I look through the peer hole and see that it's the two men that guided us to our room. I open the door.

"How can I help you?" I ask. The two remain quiet and walk into our room unannounced.

"Excuse me?" I scoff. They just look around.

"Husband, where?" One of them grunts. I roll my eyes. What do they want?

"He's asleep. Now I suggest you leave." I command. They just look at me.

I walk upstairs with them still in our living room. I quickly dial customer service.

"Hi, your security guards are in our suite and won't leave. Where are they from exactly?"

"Oh I'm sorry you highness, they are from an outside company. Not sure the name. I think it's Siberian?" The host explains. Siberian? Shit.

"Ok please send some up as soon as possible." I hang up the phone. I run to Lucius and wake him up. He groans and twists to face me.

"Those security guards are in our room and won't leave. They are from Siberia. I don't know yet, but I think we might in danger." I say when Lucius regains his senses. I take his hand and pull him down the hallway opposite to the men. I hear someone coming up the stairs. Shit!

I hear the elevator open also. Then, a gunshot.

"Amora, I don't what's going to happen to us." Lucius cups my face. I nod and break away from him. Trying to find something to hit the person coming up the stairs with.

I see the blonde one trudging up the stairs. He's carrying a gun. Lucius, still in his boxers, is in front of me.

"Give me girl. Now." The man demands. Lucius shakes his head. He motion for me to grab the chair behind me. I do.

"What do you want with us?" Lucius yells. The man just remains neutral.

"Girl. Now." He repeats.

"Leave us alone!" I shout. I know for a fact these mean want us because of our royalty.

"Girl. Now." Does this man know only two words. He points his gun at Lucius. I scream.

"Girl or I shoot!" I have no choice. If Lucius gets shot because of me, I couldn't live with myself.

"Fine. You win." I ignore the pleading eyes from Lucius and let the man take me. He gives me one last I love you and I return it.

I hear someone running behind us and then the man falls to the ground. Me being squished under him.

I wiggle out and look at Lucius, he threw the chair at him! I smile at him and he smiles at me.

We hear someone else shouting. The other one!

"Little bitch!" The other one shouts. He runs up to me halfway up the stairs and Lucius yells something I can't hear.

Then, it all goes dark.

****
I wake up somewhere cold and wet. The ground underneath my bare feet is concrete. I try to move my hands but they are shackled to the wall. I don't have any clothes on, making me whimper at what must have happened while I was knocked out.

I look around the cement room for any sign of Lucius. Nowhere. What if he's dead? What if that was the last time I ever see him?

I hear someone unlock the door. A stocky man comes in followed by a much smaller one. I recognize the smaller one.

It can't be. There is no way.

Stephan Dommins? I almost snort at the revelation. He's behind this?

"Stephan?" I weakly scoff. He just ignores me. I don't think he's behind it, but he's defiantly a part of this.

Instead the stocky red haired man approaches me. He plays with my hair, making me wiggle and try to spit in his face.

"Amora Balcray, how the queen has fallen." The man tuts while covering my mouth in tape.

"Mumunhm." I try to make out words but they don't come out.

"Don't worry about Lucius. He's alive." I let out a sigh of relief. I'm glad to hear he's alive. Wait, what if this man is lying?

"All we want from you is ransom. We want the Andorran royalty to fall, as well as the one in Monaco. You were corrupt." I assumed so.

"As for your time here, I'm sure someone could find you useful." Stocky man sneers. I don't want to think about what he's referring to.

Tears cloud my vision as both Stefan and the man leave. I whimper at my new reality. How did they get us out of the hotel? What happened to the help? I don't know.

If I hadn't let them in, none of this would have happened.

Lucius and I were on such good terms. Now, both our families and us would be in danger.

Lucius POV-

I try to move the chair I'm  roped to. Nothing. It's bolted to the floor. A man came in earlier and gagged me.

He told me Amora was ok, and that she was going to be very useful to men around here.

That sent me into boiling rage. Them hurting her, touching her, beating her. Hurting what is mine. I can't help her. I can't do anything.

So instead, I sit in this metal chair, roped up, in my boxers. The man told me my wife has a nice rack which send me into overdrive. I couldn't even tell him anything! He fucking gagged me!

She's probably sitting in a corner, alone. Scared and helpless. Just like me. I know what these Siberian bastards want. Our empires to fall. It wasn't rocket science.

Hopefully our families will work something out. Until then, who knows.
