"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...

Blood gushes out of Ace's mouth like a waterfall, the red-crimson color makes Amelia gag but she controls herself for the sake of him. Alex throws another punch, Ace tries to block it but he was becoming weak.
"Fuck!" Alex hisses when another bullet shoots through his shoulder. He looks towards the source to see Lucas standing there with a worried look. Amelia breathes in relief at the distraction.
Ace takes this as an opportunity to hit Alex, right on his left eye. Alex groans and falls on the floor due to the pain, unconscious.
BOOM!
A voice booms, shaking the warehouse in the process. Amelia's eyes widen , a bomb. Amelia quickly stands up and rushed towards Ace who was trying hard to stand straight. Lucas peeks outside and then rushes to Ace, holding his arm around his shoulder, Amelia following his action.
"We need to get out of here," Lucas says and Amelia nods hurriedly. The three of them make their way outside the room.
"Can you take him, I have to bring my brother" Amelia questions. Lucas quickly nods and continues walking outside while Amelia helps her brother do the same.
The four of them finally arrive at the main hall. As soon as they enter the hall, they pause.
Amelia's eyes widen when she looks at her whole family, each of them tied to a chair with their mouth covered. A gasp leaves her mouth when she noticed their appearance. Each one of them was beaten, and tortured brutally. The black eyes, busted, and blood lips, most of the parts of them were covered with dark black-blue brushed coated with blood.
Noticing Amelia, all of them start shouting or at least try. Alvise, who was slightly conscious looks at his family. He tries to go to them but Amelia tightens her grip, Alvise looks at her.
"I will go." She says and goes to Lucas, Amelia was about to ask him to hold Alvise when he says,
"It's a trap, Amelia" Amelia pauses and frowns. A trap?
"How can you-" Amelia was once again interrupted by her brother.
"He is right Amelia. Every member of our family is here, there must a reason behind it. This is a trap and I bet they are here somewhere, hiding in the dark waiting" Alvise says with a hushed voice.
Amelia nods slowly, still shocked by the information. But it makes sense. They have been trying to find her family since they entered the warehouse and after so many obstacles now that they are finally in front of her, it won't be so easy.
Amelia takes a shaky breath, "What do we do now? Ace and Alvise are hurt and your bodyguards-wait, where are they?" Amelia questions when she notices that there was not a single guard there.
Lucas shakes his head and Amelia gulps. They are dead already?
"What about-" Before Amelia could ask any further, Someone claps from behind. They all turn to look at the source.
There stood a man with a smirk on his face.
