Cause You are Mine

Plan

Katie's POV

I was lying on Ethan's chest. The love of my life. Brother of my best friend. Two naked bodies tangled in supposed peace. I felt nothing but peace since Emily was somewhere fearing for her life, probably gave in to that psychopath without her consent and eventhough she claims to be stronger than any of us, I knew that she was crying. And it made me sick, helpless and useless. I needed to do something soon despite the fact that it has been months since I last heard from her.

I snuggled more to Ethan's warm body trying to wake him up in order to spill my concerns about his sister.

Ethan took a deep breath and opened his eyes looking at me with love that I would never exchange with anything.

"Good morning" I whispered.

"Hmm" he put his nose in my hair smelled me which brought a smile on my lips.

"Babe, we need to find Emily. She is not safe and it is killing me." I looked up into his blue orbs. Same color as his sister.

"Yeah I know, I've got something in my mind." he murmured.

This was not a satisfying answer for my concerns. I raised up on my elbows and faced him fully.

"I've been hearing the same shit from you for all these months. Tell me what you are up to and let me retaliate with proper come backs to confute your plans." I was dead serious despite the fact that he's been in my life for a year beyond Emily's knowledge I realized that she is more important to me than him at that moment. Because he was in my arms safely but his sister was suffering at some goddamn place with a monster. How f*cking did I manage hide our relationship from her and why he was keeping this thing between us as secret was still a unsolved mystery to me. I was sure that Emily wouldn't care if she knew about us.

We met when he was in town to check up on Emily last year. He never confronted her or tried to talk to her. All he did was investigating her situation and  living conditions. As being the closest person to her he chose me to reveal the answers for his questions. And then he kept on coming back although he asserted that his visits were all about Emily, I was aware that he wanted to spend much time with me. By time I fell for him and he did the same.

He sighed but didn't answered back.

So I kept pushing although I knew he hated it.

"Don't do this, don't keep sh*t from me. Whatever you are planning is not working for f*cks sake" I raised my voice exasperatedly.

"Okay I understand your concerns but listen to me. She is my sister although she thinks I don't love her anymore because of my mother's death, I care about her more than you can imagine. I will do anything to save her. I know that bastard and what he is capable of. He kept her under his wings for quite a long time and I know she is not safe there but this thing that I am working on needs time and she has to survive during the process."

He was exhausted not physically because of our time spent on the bed but emotionally.

"I know babe, I know how you feel. But I have this undefined feeling that she is in danger right now and we are not doing anything to prevent this." I feel it in my guts that something was strongly wrong.

"Well." He sighed again. "I may or may not cooperate with some enemies to him. The minute he tried to fool me with his drugs provided free for my self pleasure I decided to act along and find a solution for the situation even if it means that some blood will be shed."

"What do you mean?" I was scared for the first time for him because I had no idea what he got himself into.

"The Russians."

"What" I gasped.

"I know they want him down and I will help them to get this bastard and dig his grave myself" he snarled.

"What about you what about Emily?" This sounded as the most stupid plan I ever heard of not that I was always in some kind of a rescuing plot.

"She'll be fine. Don't worry. I am very close to locate their place. I have a friend who creates miracles on computers and tracking. I will give the information to them as soon as this guy finds out. They will attack them and get Emily and hand her to me."

"In return?" this didn't sound good.

"They don't want anything from me in return." He furrowed his eyebrows. "They will get him, he is all they want not Emily or me." He kissed my temple.

"How can you be so sure that they will not hurt you or Emily? They may kill you instantly."

He didn't answered.

"Babe look I know no s*hit about mafia but I read about them a lot since Emily is missing. Those people are merciless. They act on instinct. The moment they get him they will get rid of you. Are you that insane to overlook this minor detail?"I was terrified with the thought of loosing the most important people in my life. Emily and I was not seem to be too close friends yet we meant more than friends, because even we don't spend much time together we always be there for each other when things get tough. And Ethan. He is the love of life there is no need for further explanation. I would be lost without him.

"We'll be fine" he promised and rolled out of the bed heading to bathroom.

I need to do something. Going to cops never solved anything cause they were bought by the devil. I needed a back up plan soon.

I got out of the bed and entered the steamy bathroom. Ethan was under the water, his head between his arms laying on the wall. He was afraid as much as I am. I shrieked with anticipation. I slide behind him and wrapped my arms around his waist, laid my head on his back.

"We will be okay" I whispered.

"Yeah I know" he murmured back.

I kissed his shoulder. He was a big man with a big heart.

"I will come with you" I directed.

"No you won't" he turned back to face me, held my face between his hands and look through my eyes.

"Yes I will, end of discussion" I snapped.

"I can't loose you both" the pain in his eyes were obvious.

"No I can't loose you both. We are together in this sh*t." He saw the determination in my eyes and backed down. He slowly nodded.

I was decisive to save my boyfriend and my best friend although I got no idea how to do it.
