Leila was finally let out of the house but not far. She was allowed to take a swim and sunbathe by the pool. Wohoo, she said sarcastically when one of the guards told her the news.
-"And Julian?"- she asked. -"Will he be joining us?"
-"Mr. Hart has a meeting."- the man explained. -"But I'm sure it won't be long until he is here."
She wished that she could call her sister. Angie must be worrying sick.
-"Hey..."-she called the guard. -"Where is Toby?"
-"Toby was dismissed, miss."- the guard told her.
-"Dismissed?! Why?"- she asked and the man shrugged his sholders. -"Mr. Harts decision mam."
That bastard, she thought.
After what it seems to be an hour spent sunbathing on the deck, she almost fell asleep when his deep voice startled her.
-"I must tell you I'm not too thrilled about allowing you this." -he said as he looked at her almost naked. She must've chosen the smallest bikini she could find.
She ignored his comment but rather asked: -"Where is Toby, Julian?"
The way she would say his name, made him crazy.
He smirked. -"Gone."
-"Why?!"
-"He touched what is mine."
She looked at him. -"You really think that don't you? You think I'm yours?? I'll never be yours!"
-"Look at this situation you're in, Leila. Given who your father is, you must admit I ain't that bad." -he tried to give her another perspective of this.
She would have none of that.
-"You knew it's not Toby's fault!" -she went back to easier battles.
-"Still..."- he aproached her, puting his hand on her naked sholder caressing gently her skin as he spoke. -"No one, not on purpose or by accident, can put his hands on you."
She got goosebumps from his touch and she hated it.
-"Can I call my sister?"- she took of her sunglasses looking him deeply into his eyes. -"Please, Julian?"
-"Not yet, baby. But soon. I promise." - he kissed the back of her head.
She got up from the deck chair putting quickly a shirt on and on her way out of there she just said to him: -"Fuck you."
He smiled to himself, at least she's not boring, he thought.
...
-"Do you want to tell us now about yourself?" -Miles started seeing that their guest had her lunch and was now looking rested and ok.
-"My name is Carmen Ariza. I come from Toledo, Spain."
That explains the accent, Dylan thought.
-"What are you doing in Costa Rica, Carmen?"- Drew asked.
-"That's a sad story." - she looked like she could cry. -"I was kidnapped while traveling Europe and was brought here. I wanted to travel before going to college, so I took a year off."
-"Why were you traveling alone? You must've known it's dangerous." -Miles asked.
-"I wasn't alone! I had two friends with me but unfortenately once they took us they seperated us." -she explained.
-"Human trafficking. I knew it. Maybe it has something to do with the dissappearence of Leila after all." -Miles concluded.
-"Yeah, maybe John Reins doesn't even know his daughter is missing. No one can get ahold of him."- Drew said.
-"We need to call Jason." -Miles added.
-"Don't worry Carmen, we'll get you home safely." -Dylan said.
-"Noo!" -she objected to everyones surprise. -" I can't go back before I find my friends."
Drew was now studying her once again.
-"Wouldn't you be happier if you can be with your family and notfy the authorities about what happened to you?" -Dylan asked.
-"I think we all now that in this case police is useless." -she said.
They couldn't argue. Human trafficking is a nasty business that nearly never has happy ending.
-"Well...luckily for you then Carmen, we also need to find those people that brought you to Costa Rica. And you can help us." -Miles said and everyone agreed.
-"Partners?" -Dylan suggested to her shaking her hand.
She gladly accepted. -"Partners." -she smiled.
