"you were kidnapped," Mr. Romano said.

"What do you mean I was kidnapped," I said with my newfound courage.

Flashback (Author's POV)

as the decoration was complete and the cake was made they all went to take the bath. as they got ready, everyone started coming to the house so after a few minutes ariel's mother went and dressed ariel in a beautiful pink gown. her eyes shined with happiness and love. after ariel was dressed someone shouted from downstairs and in a hurry she ran and went to see what the noise was for.

as she reached the last step the light went out and she heard ariel scream "MUMMAA" (Mom) but by the time she could reach ariel she was gone.

her mother blamed herself and didnt eat for weeks all the brothers were also very upset and didnt leave their rooms and her father was doing everything in his power to get his child back but couldn't find her as the Russian mafia covered their tracks very well.

Flashback ends back to (ARIEL'S POV)

Omg this all information was too much to take I didn't remembered being kidnapped. All I could remembered was me being in an orphanage my whole life and when I asked my orphanage headmaster he would say that I was left on the gate in the cold and if he was few minutes late I would have ended dead.

" Mr. Romano" I saw a bit hurt in his eyes when I said Mr. Romano instead of dad but it vanished and he didn't say anything just waiting for me to continue , so I did. "I get that I was kidnapped and I have no memories of you guys as I was very young, but what were you doing at the auction" I asked trying to be as polite as possible.

"I was there obtaining auction information because I was ready to raid their warehouse and put an end to their human trafficking operation." Mr Romano said.

As I didn't how I should respond so I just said oh.  "Ariel dear its been a long day I think you should go rest" Mr. Romano said as he said that seconds later my brother Stefano came in the office and as he enter he said "yes father, you called for me?". "Yes child could you show you sister to the room?" Dad said giving both of us a warm smile. He said why not and gestured me to come with him.

While we were making our way towards my room Stefano tried to make conversation but I was a bit scared to answer him so i usually responded with a small yes or no. He got the idea and as we reached my room.

As I was about to enter Stefano pulled me in a hug and whispered to me that i am safe and he will protect me no matter what. This made me extremely happy and I hugged him back tightly and then went into my room and as soon as I hit the pillow I was out as light.
