Natalia

As we were on the way towards my grandparents property I realized I forgot to call mama to let her know I was on my way, as I scrambled for my phone in my purse, Amir saw me in the rear view mirror, "Everything okay Ms. Natalia?"

"Can we go back Amir? I forgot my phone in the bedroom"

"Of course Ms. Natalia" Amir said as he made a U turn.

As we were arriving back to the gates of the house, a black Porsche had just pulled out speeding in the opposite direction with Callum as the driver.

"Amir did Callum have any meetings today?" I asked as we were turning into the paved driveway. "None that were scheduled Ms. Natalia"

"Follow his car then"I ordered.

"Right away Ms. Natalia. Amir made a sharp quick U turn causing me to tilt in my seat. As I looked over to the parked cars I could see Bianca and Ronan's driver standing by their Mercedes.

Last night as we laid in bed Callum and had talked about our future. He was still very persistent on trusting him and that the truth would come to light soon. Part of me trusted him and something inside of me told me that he was being honest on the other hand I knew better than to trust him and right now racing thoughts ran through my head as he had promised to watch Zoey and now he was speeding off leaving her behind with her other grandparents.

Amir kept a safe pace from Callum's Porsche to not make it obvious we were following him but it couldn't be hidden too well being in a blacked out Suburban speeding after you on the highway.

The more we drove the farther from the house and city we got. Finally our journey ending as Callum exited the freeway into an industrial street two hours away from our house. The street was full of nothing but warehouses and logistics buildings. The perfect place to do something you wanted hidden. With minimal sercuity. Judging by looks of all the buildings around this was Clarke territory and they most definitely owned the buildings that lined the streets.

Callums porsche pulled into a dark grey building at the end of the quiet road. As we pulled into the entrance the metal gate had shut.

"Ms. Natalia, I'm afraid I don't have access to this warehouse. We will have to turn around." Amir said turning back to me

"Its okay you can leave me here." I said hopping out of the car. I stood in front of the tall heavy metal gate. Taking a couple steps back I ran and jumped at the gate climbing up the rails and boosted myself over onto the other side quickly. I caught my breath a bit after not having done that in a while, a new rush of adrenaline hit me as I saw there was a guard standing at the door where Callum had just entered.

I walked up casually standing before the tall, muscular guard, " Mrs. Clarke" the man quickly said as he fixed his posture straightening his black suit and brown hair. "I'm sorry but you don't have clearance for this building."

"I don't need any" I smiled as I quickly hit him on all his pressure points rendering him on his knees before hitting him with the final one that would render him unconscious. With one final loud thud the unfortunate guard hit the floor. I stepped over his body searching for the key card needed to gain access to inside.

I swiped the key on the card reader it quickly beeped green as the door unlocked and entered the warehouse that looked like it served as packing place.

As I walked down the hallway I could hear at least two men talking to each other in a room. "Why is she so important anyways?" A guy asked

"Because Callum needs her to get his life back and the other one's existence is a fucking threat to his throne" the other one replied.
