Luca

I'm in the middle of a fucking meeting and I get a notification from Hiro that Allison and her friend Kells are not in the villa I rented for them. Stress and frustration is what I'm feeling right now. I specifically told Allison not to go anywhere without her guards. They have been trying to call her but realized that she left her phone at home and I bet everything in me that she did that shit on purpose, Her friend's phone keeps going to voicemail. I knew bringing her along to Ibiza was a mistake. I knew I was going to regret it but I let her talk me into it.

I can't focus on anything being said in this meeting and neither can I leave seeing as I was the one who set it up and everyone here is important because I need to expand my business here. I'd like to maintain my respectable reputation but I can't stop thinking about my stubborn girl. I really hope that she is fine and safe. She knows very well that she can't be going anywhere alone after her abduction. And then she fucking leaves her phone at home.

"Fuck." I mutter running a hand through my hair.

"Excuse me, Mr. De Santo?" Says Alejandro Morro, an old business associate.

"Nothing, continue." I reply and he continues talking. I can't wait for this meeting to finish. I send a text to Hiro telling him and Kane to go out and look for Allison.

I can't think straight right now. I'm really between a rock and a hard place. If I leave this meeting I won't be able to have my product sold here. I need this meeting to go well.

I look over to Sophia to find her giving me a look. She can tell something is wrong. I clear my throat, sit up straighter and mask my face of any emotion. I swear Allison María González will be the death of me.

The meeting is finally over and I rush to over to the car I rented, I leave Sophia to deal with the pleasantries. I call Hiro and ask where they are then head to them. I end up at a club where they are. We go from club to club asking the bouncers if they had perhaps seen the two girls by showing them their picture. We decide to hit restaurants and bars too. It's almost midnight and I'm getting angrier and more impatient with every passing second.

Kane suggests we go back to the villa and wait there and if they don't show up by six in the morning we can go report them as missing. As much as I don't want to give up, we have exhausted ourselves and don't seem to be getting anywhere. With a heavy heart I nod my head in agreement and go to the villa.

Two hours go by excruciatingly slow before I get an alert of the gate being unlocked. I go stand at the balcony and see Allison and her friend. By the way they're walking they seem to be drunk. I wait for her in our room. Minutes go by before I am graced with her presence.

I'm sure she didn't see me as it's dark in the room and I'm seated in the corner. She makes her way to the bathroom and I hear the shower get turned on. She comes out after a while wrapped in a towel. She left the bathroom door open so the light from there illuminates the room making me see her more clearly.

"Where the fuck have you been?" I ask her calmly. It's talking everything in me not to raise my voice at her.

"Oh, my God! Luca you scared me" She says holding onto her towel tightly.

I stand up and approach her.

"Answer me, Allison." I growl in annoyance.

"I-I..." She looks up at me scared.

"You what?"

"Luca..."

The more I look at her the angrier I become so I just leave slamming the door shut. I will sleep in another room. I'm so upset I have to leave because I don't want to have to say something I will regret later on. I hear Allison call me but I just ignore her and keep walking away.
