( Still Alex's POV)

It's been a week. A whole freaking week! And we still haven't found her.

Each  passing day just makes it harder for me to even think what she must be going through. What they're doing to her . It hurts to even think about it !

"Alex ?"

"Yes sir ?" I looked up with tired eyes , no doubt with bags under them from all the sleepless night's I've had .

He sighs before answering ;
"It seems that the guy we're dealing with is a lot smarter than we thought. He didn't leave any evidence behind and covered his tracks really well. Seems like an old pro at this "

"Ok? So what does this mean ?"

"It means , we have no further leads unless you can remember anything that could help us "
I brushed my hands through my hair.

Think Alex , think , what is something that could help ?

Something that could be useful to us now ?

I brushed my hands over my face in frustration - frustrated that I couldn't think of something - and as I slid my hands down , I caught the sight of my wedding ring for the first time in a while - I hadn't really payed attention to what's going on around me so everything was kind of a blur -  and it was as if a sudden light went off in my head.

"Ring," I mumbled in realisation to myself

"What ?"
"Ring , I mean her wedding ring" I said - getting up from my chair - getting excited with the bit of hope I held on my finger this whole time .

"What about it ?"

"I remember putting a tracker in it incase something like this ever happend. Though I never thought it would come to it , I can't believe I forgot about it"

I rushed over to my desk , opening my laptop up and starting up the program. 

It was like I got a second breath to keep continuing,  a new source of hope that I could get her back .

One thing I was certain about , I was now more determined than ever to get her back . And I'll do anything in my power to do so .

"Ok , lets get on it then we don't know how much time we have left ." He said as he made his way around to me , watching my fingers move quickly across the keyboard .

(Tiffany's POV)

It's  been a week. I really thought Alex would've come rescued me by now , guess not.

I've started to give up all traces of hope but then again ,I wasn't  completely treated  as a hostage. So what was I complaining about ?

They actually fed me, and good food too. At first I was sceptical thinking they'd poison me but then again. They wouldn't because they needed me to get to my daughter -which I won't allow as long as I'm alive.-

I'm sitting in the same room as when I first got here . It's dimly lit  while someone feeds me , and Trevor and his wife are sitting across the room sharing a glace at me every once and a while. This is how my day usually places off .

As I finished eating , the girl who fed me went over to tell them I'm done as they made their way towards me .

I sighed in annoyance and mentally rolled my eyes at them . They're not the most pleasant people to have around.

To be completely honest I despise their company I'm forced to listen to everyday. 

"Rachel ?"
"Yes ,Trevor ?"
They looked at eachother, back to me - giving me the same menacing smile as everyday-  before looking at eachother again.

"Say , what do you think of the name Clair ?"

"Mmm... I like the name Clair it sounds so elegant and sweet . So posh . " Rachel replied with her voice dripping with venom and displeasure .

"What about you Tiffany , do you like the name Clair ?" Trevor addressed me.

I just rolled my eyes at them and scoffed, "Why would you want my opinion?" I said in clear exasperation.

"Well ,cause we want to name our daughter Clair , and just out of courtesy we would like to hear your opinion on it " the voice he said it in sounded sweet and caring but only a fool would believe that ,  and look past the deliberate and ominous way he ment it .

"Pff , courtesy do you even know what that means ? And why would I help you pick a name for my daughter ?"
I said raising my voice and putting emphasis on my . He was starting to push my anger over the edge today .

"Don't raise your voice at me !" He roared back at me , making everyone in the room shriek back in fear,  but not me .

"And what if I want to ?!" I spat into his face .

He approached me slowly and whisperd into my ear;
"If you don't...we might just keep your son too" I could hear the smile forming on his face , knowing he has won .

"Y-you wouldn't ..." my confidence subsided  as he pulled back looking at me  .

"Don't test me Tiffany , I'm capable of a lot more than you think ."

I began to tear up as he came closer and wiped the tear from my cheek
"Shh... don't get upset. Just behave and everything will turn out alright." He hushed me like a baby .

"How ,is everything going to be alright ?! You want to take my baby girl from me and possibly my son too!"
I began to sob even louder as I tried to get loose from the ropes yet again .

I struggled against them - not even caring about the burning sensation it gave my skin - as I tried to pull at the ropes .

"Ugh, I've had enough of this ! I asked you to be quite but since you wouldn't listen you forced my hand . Joe ! Get in here and bring the stuff ."
My heart quickend  at the mention of his name , and it immediately made me  stop crying knowing what's to come. Fearing what's to come .

"O-ok , I'll stop just please don't hurt me"

"No ! I gave you a chance. I don't give second chances "
"
P-pleas-"
I haven't even finished my sentence before darkness consumed me for the 2nd time today. As my body  became numb.

(Trevor's POV)

Ugh , she just knows how to get on my nerves! Who knows how Alexander keeps it out with her!

If only she kept quite I wouldn't have made her quite. But I have to admit I like her better sleeping, she just complains and whines when she's awake.

Rubbing my hands on the rag I sat back down at my desk , finishing up with my work .

"Sir !"

I rolled my eyes as Ryan just burst through my door .

"Don't you knock Ryan ?"

"Sorry sir , but I think you have to come see this "

"What is it ?" I asked clearly annoyed , going on with my work as he talked in the background.

"It's the hostage..."

"What about her ?"

He motioned  for me to follow. As I walked down the stairs I saw exactly what he was talking about.

In the pitch black room a red blinking light was seen. As I approached where the source of light was coming from , I saw it .

I gave a  humorous chuckle and Ryan looked at me confused as I lifted her left hand up.

"Looks like he wasn't as stupid as I thought. He's tracking her ."
"
Sir, should we dispose of the ring ?"

"No... let's have some fun with this "
