Alice's Pov:

A car pulled up and out came Nicholas and the other guy. He spots me and runs at me, he tells the other guards to get me. I run faster but it's hard to run in heels so I took them off and threw them at a guy.
"Sorry but not sorry!" I say fastening my pace
"ALICE! NO! COME BACK HERE" Nick shouts

I ignore him and run faster but then I bump into wait not bump, smashed was more like it. I smashed into someone's chest and I looked up. It was the guy, how? Did? He? He grabs my hair then bends down and carries me, I try to fight back but doesn't work.
"You sure a feisty one princess"
"Okay Mr.Mcfuckfuck LET GO OF ME!" I say struggling to get out of his grip
"Ah that's right I haven't introduced myself. My apologies princess, Dmitri Ivanov from the Russian Family" he smirks while I try to get loose of his grip
"Look I don't care if you come from a land where fucking unicorns shit rainbows! JUST LET ME GO! I never did anything to you guys!"
"Not to me but to her you have so yeah sorry can't let you go honey. Also Adriano he's looking for you which is good news for me" he says
Adriano... I miss him. Tears start to well up in my eyes and I choke on a sob.
"Ah she finally cracks. Guess Adriano is your weak spot as much as you are to him" Dmitri says
"Fuck you!! All of you fuck you!" I break down
"Hush hush princess go to sleep" he says as he knocks me out

I'm back in the room but this time I feel defeat. I feel that there's no hope, I do the only logical thing to do. Give up.....

Adriano's Pov:

WHERE IS SHE! FIVE FUCKING DAYS SHE HAS BEEN GONE! I'm going crazy, I miss her so much. I thought the Adamo's took her but when I asked my men to check all there places there was no sight of her.Why would someone take her? It's all my fault I should have never pursued her. She was never in danger until I came into her life.

I already fired 20 of my men because the idiot's couldn't do anything right! Luciano hasn't heard about anything yet because he's was in Italy handling some business but he is comi- then the door flies open. Yup right on cue
"ADRIANO YOU SON OF A BITCH WHERE IS SHE?!" He roars at me
"If I knew she'd be here in my arms!"
"How could you let this happen?! THIS POOR INNOCENT WOMAN IS GONE BECAUSE OF YOU!"
"DO YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW THAT?! Luciano per cinque giorni sono stato alla ricerca di lei! IM FUCKING WORRIED ASWELL!" I start to break down and he seems stunned looking at me
"You better find her Adriano or this is on you!"
I nod at him "Did you check the security cameras already?" He asks me
"Thats the first thing I did! I checked everywhere!" I checked everywhere except... I jolt out of my chair and rush to her room.

Luciano follows me and I open the library I see the desk carved with big letters "JEROME"
Jerome? Who's Jerome? Luciano seems to know because his eyes widen
"Who's Jerome?" I ask him
"The guy you killed because of Alice" he says
"He's dead? Right!?" I say
"I-I-I don't know! He's supposed to be!" He shouts
I run to the security camera's and play back the tape from when Alice was taken. No no no! NO! That's impossible, I shot him in the head! Same physic,hair and even his eyes. God dammit! I call Liam and order him to come to my office.
"How is he alive?!"
"Adriano I thought you killed him?! Did you lie?"
Lie? I grab Luciano by the neck and smash him into the wall
"Lie?! LUCIANO! YOU KNOW ME AND RIGHT NOW I'M ANGRY AS FUCK! YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IM FUCKING MAD! LOOK WHAT'S THE FUCKING PURPOSE I WOULD LIE?!" I shout
"I-I-I'm sorry... It's just Jerome he must've took Alice but that's impossible! You shot him in the head right?!" He panics
"WHAT DO YOU THINK I DID?! HAD A FUCKING TEA PARTY WITH HIM?!" I shout
I hear three knocks on the door and shout for them to come in. In come's Liam.
"Boss" he says
"Liam let me ask you a simple ass question that need's a simple ass answer! Is Jerome Hafrris dead?!"
He gulps "Yes Sir"
"Tell me the truth Liam, you saw what happened to Jerome. Your fate will be alot worse" I gritted through my teeth
"Sir we burned his body into ashes"
THEN HOW IS HE STILL ALIVE?! NO ONE KNEW THAT WE KILLED HIM?!
I start to throw everything infront of me into the wall, smashing everything on my desk. Jerome Hafrris's blood was on my hands! I killed him, I shot him in his bloody head! I need to get to the bottom of this and Alice back! God I miss her, she's too innocent to be dragged into this shit. This is just messed up I shouldn't have dragged her in to this. I don't know what I would do if anything happened to her.
"Calm down Adriano! We can't find her with you having tantrums all the time!" He spats
I glare at him and point my index finger into his chest hard "You are telling me to fucking calm down?! SURE WHY DON'T I CALM DOWN WHEN THE LOVE OF MY LIFE IS OUT THERE WITH SOME MONSTER!" love of my life..... he is shocked that I had admitted that.
"Adriano we will find her" he assures me

I take a deep breath in and out to calm my self down. Suddenly I hear my door open and I look up to see Alonzo with worry spread all over his face.
"Did you find her?!"
"No but you are going to want to see this" he says while handing me a note

Hello Adriano,
I know you are worried for her but don't worry I have her with me right now. Safe and sound for now... better look faster lover boy if you want her to stay safe and sound before SHE gets her. Now let's play a game, find her and you win simple right? Well that's where your wrong there's a twist but what fun will it be to tell you it right now? Have fun finding us!

Us? Who is she? This can't be Jerome.
"Where did you find this?" I ask Alonzo
"On your doorstep" he says
My doorstep? I run the security camera in the hallways and see a guy who I know too well. Dmitri that son of a bitch!
"Do you see that Alonzo? You know who he is right?" I say
"Dmitri, I'll get all the guys and we will go to Ivanov's tomorrow" He says
"No we have to go now! Get all my men and tell them to get ready for war" I say
He leaves but I hear the door open again
"Forget anything Alonzo?" I say while writing down something but he doesn't answer and so I look up and get punched in the face. What the hell?!
"Where. Is. My. SISTER!" He demanded
"Do you think I even fucking know?! I've been searching for her for days!" I spat at him
"DAYS?! SHE HAS BEEN GONE FOR DAYS?!" He punches me again in the jaw
"Stop with the hitting! How did you even know Alice has been gone?!" I ask
"SHE'S MY SISTER I KEEP TABS ON HER!"
"She's not Angela! SHE'S NOT HER! SHE'S GONE!" I scream at him and see him get angry then grabs me by the collar and my men point their guns at him but I tell them to stand down.
"SHE IS HER! SHE'S NOT GONE, YOU SON OF A BITCH I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU IF YOU EVER SAY SHE'S GONE AGAIN!"
"Okay fighting is not going to solve anything Antonio! I know who took her"
"You knew who took her yet here you are inside your comfy apartment WHILE GOD KNOWS WHERE SHE IS?!"
"I JUST FOUND OUT DUMBASS! Ivanov took her"
"Ivanov? What is the purpose for him taking a girl like her?" He says
"I don't know maybe to hurt me. All I know is that we have to hurry"
"I hate to say it but I think it's best we work together to find her. We should out number Ivanov and take Alice back" I nod to his statement
"I'll gather my men and if something happens to her Adriano, your dead"
"Nothing will happen to her, you have my word"
"Let's see about that" He says and leaves my office
I will find you Alice don't worry....
