Luca's Perspective

The rogue problem is getting worse day by day. So, I gathered all the alphas for a meeting to address the issue. As the Alpha of all alphas, it's my responsibility to protect not just my pack but all those under my command. This role isn't just about strength; it's about making tough decisions, managing crises, and ensuring the safety of our kind.

"Alphas, we need to increase security at our pack borders. We can't let any rogue near our packs. If there are any rogues near your territories, inform me or my beta immediately." My voice carried the weight of authority, and I saw the resolve in their eyes.

In the middle of the meeting, my beta, Eric, mind-linked me. "Alpha, we have her."

The words sent a thrill through me, a sensation I hadn't felt in a long time. My wolf, Zydus, was practically howling in my head.

"Our mate is at home. Let's go, Luca. What are you waiting for?"

Suppressing a grin, I addressed the gathering, "That's it for today, Alphas. I have an urgent matter to attend to. If any issues arise, reach out to me or my beta." They all stood, bowing their heads in respect as I left.

In the car, I was on edge. The thought of finally seeing my mate, Isabelle, had my wolf pacing inside me. I wanted to hold her, to finally claim her as mine.

"Drive faster," I ordered my driver, barely containing my impatience. The journey home felt like an eternity, but when we arrived, I wasted no time. I headed straight to my room, and there she was, my mate, lying unconscious on my bed. Her black dress clung to her curves, revealing more skin than I was comfortable with anyone else seeing. She was perfect, even more beautiful than I remembered. But the thought of anyone else looking at her like this made me growl in possessive anger.

After a moment of admiring her, I headed to the bathroom for a quick shower. I wanted to make sure I was presentable for her.

Isabelle's Perspective

I felt like I was floating in a dream, wrapped in warmth and comfort I hadn't known in years. Slowly, the heaviness in my eyes lifted, and I forced them open. The room around me was unfamiliar—luxurious, with dark brown tones, a king-sized bed, and elegant furnishings.

"Holy crap! Where am I?" I muttered, panic starting to creep in as the memories of last night flooded back. The party, Ryan, the guy in the alley… it all came rushing back. "I've been kidnapped by that guy," I realized with a sinking feeling.

I jumped off the bed, rushing to the door, only to find it locked. My heart pounded in my chest as I started shouting, "Somebody, please open the door!"

The bathroom door creaked open, and I froze. Standing there was the man from my nightmares , the same guy I saw at the beach a week ago. He was dripping water, a towel slung low around his hips, giving me a full view of his muscular chest and abs. Despite the terror, I couldn't help but stare. He was the embodiment of raw, masculine power, and I hated myself for finding him attractive.

"Calm down, love. I'm not going to hurt you," he said, his voice a soothing rumble as he pulled on a white shirt and black trousers.

"Who are you? Where the hell am I?" My voice shook with fear, but I tried to sound as defiant as possible.

He walked towards me, his eyes locked onto mine. "Why don't you sit down first? Then I'll answer all your questions," he said, his tone surprisingly gentle. Hesitantly, I sat on the edge of the bed.

"I'm Luca Knight, and as for why you're here… I told you I would come for you."

His words sent a chill down my spine. The way he looked at me, like I belonged to him, made my skin crawl. "Listen to me, you bastard! I'm not yours. Let me go. My best friend and my boyfriend are waiting for me. They’re all I have left."

Luca's eyes darkened at the mention of Ryan. "The one who cheated on you?" The silence that followed was deafening.

I tried a different tactic, my voice trembling as I pleaded, "I know you're a big mafia man. Please let me go. I’ll give you money, whatever you want."

He chuckled, a low, dangerous sound. "What if I want you?"

Panic surged in me. "Don't you understand? I'm not yours. I’m not some object you can own." I tried to stand my ground, but as he closed the distance between us, I backed up until I hit the wall. His presence was overwhelming, his scent intoxicating.

He leaned in, his breath hot against my ear. "When I first laid my eyes on you, you were mine. You’re mine, and you’ll always be mine. If I see any man even looking at you, I'll kill them." His voice was a possessive growl, and despite my fear, I felt a shiver of excitement.

"Yours? Who said I am yours?" I whispered defiantly, trying to regain control of the situation.

He gripped my waist, pulling me closer, his lips brushing against my neck, sending sparks through my body. I bit my lip, trying to suppress a moan. My mind screamed at me to push him away, but my body was betraying me, craving his touch.

"What are you doing?" I managed to push him back, gasping for air.

He smirked, his eyes dark with desire. "Oh love, you'll be begging me to come near you soon enough."

"That's never going to happen," I snapped. "I'm not staying here."

Luca's eyes narrowed. "Don't even think about escaping. You won't get far." His voice was deadly serious. "A maid will bring you dinner. Get freshened up. We’re leaving for Colombia in two days."

"Colombia?" I echoed in disbelief.

"Yes, love," he said, his voice softening for a moment. Then he turned and left the room, locking the door behind him.

I ran to the door, pounding on it. "Luca, open the damn door! You can’t keep me here!" My cries for help went unanswered, and despair washed over me. I wasn’t going to Colombia. I wasn’t going anywhere with him.

"I have to do something," I whispered to myself, determined to find a way out of this nightmare.

Outside the room, I heard Luca's voice commanding his warriors, "Guard the door properly. Don't let anyone inside except the maid."

"Yes, Alpha," came the stern reply.

This wasn’t just about survival anymore. It was about freedom. I had to escape, no matter what it took.
