Lorenzo
As I entered the room, I saw two people sitting in front of my desk. I turn to face them and find myself staring at a familiar black haired man with bodies filled with piercings.
"You?"
"Grubyy" Max said with a smirk on his face. (Brute)
We both spoke at the same time. I was more surprised than him. But then again, I had a feeling the bastard had known beforehand that we were about to meet.
"This is the guy who can find Anna?" I asked Alex. I can't help feeling slightly betrayed. I knew Max and Capri had a history together, but knowing her ex is key to finding her just didn't sit right with me.
"You two know each other?" It was now Alex's turn to be surprised.
"My vstretilis'" he said dismissively. (we've met)
"We have a mutual acquaintance," I said with contempt clear in my voice.
"Who am I supposed to find? Who did you lose?" Max said condescendingly in his thick Russian accent. As if he is mocking me.
"Our mutual acquaintance," I answered. Alex had told me that he was bringing someone he trusts but despite that, I can't help feeling contempt towards Max. I know I'm just being petty. Wishing that out of the 10 billion people in the world, he wasn't the one who I had to turn to to get Capri back.
"Owh. Her?" Max's eyes widened when he realized who I was talking about. "Well, why don't you just check her tracker?"
"We can't, she turned it off." My fingers immediately pinch the skin between my eyes. I can feel a slight throbbing in my head.
"I see." He tapped his chin for a few moments, thinking.
"How do you know Anna?" Alex questions Max but he just waves him off.
"She stayed here, yes? Do you still have her gears, her stuff?" Max asked me.
"Yes. We have her stuff, haven't touched any of it."
"Good. Show me."
I led them up to Capri's attic. The maids had already cleaned up her room but had made sure to put back everything where it should be.
When Max came in, he was immediately filled with wonder. He looks at her room as if he just stepped into some kind of wonderland.
"Do you know how rare this is? To be in the room of the great-"
"Max!" I signal for him to keep his mouth shut. If Alex had caught on to what Max was about to say, he didn't say anything, and hopefully, he wouldn't as I prefer Capri to tell him her secrets herself instead of me.
"Right, right. Let's see now." Max went straight to one of the terminals and turned it on.
"What are you doing? I just need you to check the security cameras and find Anna." Alex asks. I can tell he is getting agitated, not knowing what Max is up to.
