"Liam is under my control now, sweetheart," Ace sneers, tightening his grip.
Amella's eyes blaze with defiance as she confronts him, "Why do you hate him?! Leave him alone!" His hold on her neck loosens slightly.
Gripping her hair tightly, Ace looks...

Amelia and Ace sprint toward the side of the voice. They run and Lucas meets them in between. All of them were sweating due to the hot atmosphere and the marathon they ran. Everyone except their guards looked completely composed.
"Where?" Amelia questions, her voice wavering as she breathes. Lucas takes a final deep breath and then looks at her, finally composing himself.
"I heard voices, it was like they were whispering but I am sure that they are your family. The problem is that the door is made of metal with a password" He says and turns around, walking towards the door.
Everyone follows him in complete silence. After walking for a minute, they come across the metal door, and just like he said, there was a password needed.
Ace turns to Lucas, "Call our best hacker" He commands but Lucas shakes his head with a light shrugs. Ace raises an eyebrow.
"He won't pick up the calls. He is at the hospital" He says and Ace frowns. Seeing that, Lucas adds, "His wife gave birth so he won't come till three months. I did tell you, no?"
Ace groans and turns his head toward his guards, "Do any of you know how to hack" Even though it was supposed to be a question, it come out as a statement. The guards look at each other's faces and shake their heads in denial.
Ace then adds, "If you do open this door, I will give you a reward you won't forget" The guards again shakes their head in denial.
Ace yells, "You all are useless" The guards hung their heads in shame. Amelia flinches which don't go unnoticed by Ace whose eyes then soften.
Amelia pushes Ace to the side and then stands in front of the keypad. She takes a deep breath and types in a password, a red cross shows on the screen. Amelia closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. Before she could try again, a hand comes to her shoulder. She looks behind to look at Lucas, staring at her.
"We have three chances, if the third one goes wrong then the alarm will buzz" Lucas states.
"How do you know about that?" Ace questions with a confused face. Lucas rolls his eyes at him, making Ace frown.
Lucas points at something above them, a red alarm.
"Wow!" Amelia whispers, Impressed by Lucas. Ace glares at Lucas who raises his hands in surrender.
They all stilled when they hear whispers from the other side. Amelia again turns to the keypad.
"Wait!" Ace shouts, Amelia yelps and jumps back at his sudden interruption. He marches toward the keypad and types a password which again shows the red sign. Ace groans and Amelia rolls her eyes.
She signals Ace to give her space. Amelia takes a deep breath and closes her eyes. She slowly types the password and closes her eyes. The keypad finally beeps and she looks up to see a green sign on it. The sound of the door unlocking turns her attention toward the door.
Amelia quickly opens the door, smiling but her smile soon turns into a scream when she looks at the sight in front of her.
