Captive Love

Chapter 20

Siddhant's POV-

"Where the fuck is she?!" I yelled, slamming my fist against my desk.

The two men in front of me looked at each other with wide eyes.

"We don't know, Don. We're finding her," one of them stuttered.

"You had one job. One fucking job. To track her down. And you fucking failed!" 

I grabbed a glass of whiskey on my desk and threw it at one of the men.

He flinched and tried dodging it but the glass cut his cheek. 

"I am trying my best, Don. It seems that she has used a fake name. There is no way she could have been untraceable," The other man explained.

"If you fail in finding her within the next 24 hours...," I trailed off, twirling my gun around my fingers.

Both of them nodded and immediately ran out of my office.

 I gulped down my whiskey and threw the glass against the wall. 

"What is wrong with you, Sid?" Veer asked as entered the office, the glass almost hitting him, "Why are you behaving like a maniac!?" 

"You know the reason very well, Veer. I can't find Amrita. If I can't find her now, how will I be able to protect her in the future?" 

"You don't need to protect her! She's a bloody police chief for heaven sake! She can protect herself! She's not some damsel in distress!" 

I sighed and ran a hand down my face.

"Sid, don't worry, we will find her," Veer assured, patting my shoulder.

"One week has passed already," I whispered, leaning back on my chair.

I sighed and gazed out of the window. I decided to stay in Dubai until I find her. I would go back to Waaji City with her and her only. 

Amrita...she was my everything. I couldn't live without her.

"Sid, we have a meeting to go to," Veer said. 

"Fine. Get the car ready, I'm coming."

I got into the limousine and Veer sat beside me.

"Your dad wants to talk to you," Veer said and passed me his phone.

"Sid, what am I hearing? Why are you behaving like a madman?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Sid, Veer told me everything and you know very well what I'm talking about. Don't worry. You will find Amrita, I am sure of that."

I just hummed.

I could hear him sigh from the other end.

"Sid, when I took your mom-"

"You mean 'kidnapped' my mom?"

"Yes, yes, whatever. When I kidnapped your mom, she despised me too. She hated violence and didn't want to live with me, but I forced her. She escaped many times. Once it took me three months to find her, but I did. I was patient, unlike you. I didn't drown myself in alcohol like you. Be patient, Sid. You will surely find her. We are the most powerful mafia for a reason."

I sighed. Dad was right.

"Alright dad. I have to attend a meeting, I'll call you later."

"Alright. Come back soon. Your mom's missing you."

"Tell her I'll be back by this month."

I hung up. We reached the building the meeting was taking place in. Veer and I got out of the car and walked to the meeting hall. Once everyone saw me, they stood up.
