His Favorite Scar

Chapter 14: Gut clenching fear

David's POV

After parking Ryan's bike into his parking lot safely, I walked straight into their new home and crashed on the couch in the living room.

I sighed, closing my eyes, leaning my head back against the couch and resting my arm on the arm rest.

Today was tiring as fuck! Ryan and Vienna are back from their long vacation to Greece. And I finally got the chance to inform Ryan about the guy that we've caught, he is one of the guys who were involved in the trying to kidnap Vienna right before she came back to Ryan and apparently we've also found out that this is the same guy who was responsible for the short-circuit back at Ryan's mansion.

And this has obviously gotten Ryan alarmed, hence, the only reason why I chose not to inform him about this while he was still on his vacation with Vienna. They've both been through a lot and now that they are finally back together for good, I just didn't wanna ruin their time together by stressing Ryan over this issue. I know he would have most probably ran back home to handle things on his own.

But anyways, now Ryan wishes to interrogate him, himself and see if he could get anything more out of him, which I highly doubt because we've been torturing that bastard for weeks now, and I'm sure if he knew something else, he would have definately spilled by now.

I know he's just a ploy, a soldier in all of these things that have been happening lately, while the mastermind behind this is certainly somebody else, somebody who is after Ryan, somebody who doesn't just wants him dead, but also wants to destroy him completely...destroy everything that he has...his love...his family...the empire that his forefathers have built over hundreds of years.

But obviously I can't tell Ryan that him interrogating this guy would just be a waste of time and nothing else because I know that asshole well enough to know that he's got a thick skull and his mind won't be at peace until and unless he tortures the dude that we've caught and try getting him to speak.

Oh how I wish I could just go back to my penthouse and get some sleep after this exhausting night, or even better picked some chick from the club to bang, but alas, I can't as I'll have to acompany Ryan while he pays visit to our special guest that we've held captive back at the mansion.

Deep down I do wish to ask him if we can reschedule this meeting for tomorrow morning or something but I know, it'll be of no use and moreover he's already pissed at me for keeping this news from him, so I don't think that asking him to reschedule would be a great idea.

And anyways, he may be my best friend, my brother, my only family but yet that doesn't changes the fact that he is our leader and at the end of the day, whatever he says, goes...without any questions asked.

"Hello David!" I snapped my eyes open, lifted my head off the couch, hearing Vienna's familiar voice, only to see her being carried in Ryan's arms as she sang out the word 'hello' to me.

"Well, hello to you too, Vienna" I chuckled as Ryan just shook his head, carrying her upstairs while she waved a goodbye at me, with an everlasting smile on her face.

"Hey man! Don't forget that we need to leave" I yelled after them, just to make sure that he doesn't forgets about it and ends up snuggling in with his fiance while I wait here for him, in cold, like an idiot.

"Yeah, I know" Came a reply from him.

"Oh. Hey! When did you get back? Charlotte asked, walking in.

"Just a couple of minutes ago" I replied as she sat on the couch across me.

"Remind me to never let her drink...EVER AGAIN!" Landon said, whisper-yelling the last part while walking in with a passed out Samantha in his arms.
