At Your Service || Illumi x OC

IX: Kidnapped

Two hours had passed since Illumi was waiting for Akame. After checking upstairs, he went back down since he didn't see Falcon in the room. He already ate his meal, and Akame's food was already getting cold. He asked the waiter if they had seen her, but they only said that the last time they saw her was when she was dancing with him.

He decided to look around. He went near the ladies' room and asked the ladies if she was inside, but she wasn't. Then he went to the entrance and asked the guards there.

"Have you seen my wife? Did she go out?"

"Mr. Zoldyck," the guard greeted, "I'm sorry sir, we haven't seen her."

He just nodded and went outside. He looked for their car and saw Jericho standing outside.

"You," he called him.

"I-Illumi-sama," he greeted nervously as he didn't expect him.

"Did Akame come back around two hours ago?"

"N-no sir, I haven't seen her since you two went inside."

Illumi frowned. This was the first time she went missing. He was confused why she was gone, she was not the type of person to run away or hide. She always follows orders and makes sure that she won't cause trouble to her superiors. He decided to call her cellphone, but he didn't have service from where he was.

Akame woke up. She felt a sharp pain in her head, she tried to massage it but her hands were stopped by a chain. Her mind was blurry, but she tried to remember how she got where she is right now. The last thing she remembers was dancing with Falcon, then all of a sudden she blacked out. She studied the room around her and saw that it was a simple basement, not too creepy or abandoned. It has one simple door and no windows. There's a single bed at the corner with white sheets. There's also a small rectangular table in front of her.

"Ah, Mrs. Zoldyck. You're awake," Falcon greeted as he entered.

She frowned at him and tried to speak but the duct tape in her mouth restricts her. Falcon chuckled, he stepped closer and took off the duct tape.

"What do you want, Falcon?"

"I should be the one to ask you that," he smirked, "How did you even know my name?"

Akame kept quiet. She didn't know what to tell him, she figured that maybe he already found out their motives.

"Figures. You see, Mrs. Zoldyck, I'm a prominent businessman. And I know that my line of work is dangerous. Many people want me dead, that's why hiring an assassin to kill me is not new. Such as Mr. Illumi Zoldyck."

Akame frowned at him but kept silent.

"I mean, everyone knows how dangerous a Zoldyck is," he chuckled, "That's why, when I found out that Mr. Zoldyck had a reservation. I already planned everything. My ability is actually foresight. It lets me see 10 seconds into the future for one hour. But I had to hide it so you'd think I am unaware of your motives. After deceiving Mr. Zoldyck, I only have to capture you and it's already complete."

"That's why you required him to have company when he comes back here. What are you gonna do?"

"Kill you of course. So that the Zoldycks will know not to mess with me"

"Why aren't you killing me now?"

"I want to let him know you're with me first,"

Her phone suddenly rang. It was on the table in front of her. Falcon smirked.

"Just in time," he chuckled and picked up the phone, "Mr. Zoldyck!"

"Akame! Finally, you answered, where are you? What happened? Are you still alive? You've been gone for two hours!"
