ALESSIA'S POV

Even before I opened my eyes , I knew where I was . The strong smell of floor disinfectant and the beeping machines made sure of that.

I moved my arms a little, as I felt a little tugging on it. Opening my eyes I close them shut as the bright light almost blinded me.

A small hiss escaped my lips followed by the scraping of the chair from beside me, indicating someone's presence in the room.

I opened my eyes again, this time slowly shielding them carefully with my eye lids.
I look around and to my joy, I was in my most favourite place. Hospital. ( sarcasm check)

The door opened and Asher entered with a doctor. I looked at my arm to see many wires attached to them. Sighing I close my eyes back as the doctor checked my vitals.

" I'm sorry. I couldn't help Alia. "

" I know. I can't be mad on you for something you haven't done. But it was really wrong on your part to go on with her plan without telling me."

" But I informed Noah...
" You didn't informed Noah you guys told him because you needed his help. Well he is boycotted from the gang's work for a few days. Along with his tech supplies taken away from him. "

"How many hours was I unconscious? "
" Hours? You were cold out for two days straight." he says in a soft voice.

" You still couldn't find her?"

The heavy sigh and head lowed answered it.

My vision goes blur as a feeling of guilt invade me.

Asher places his hand on my hand, Interwining our fingers.  He brings our hands to lips, kissing mine while staring straight in my eyes.

" It wasn't your damn fault. It was the fault of whoever decided to touch us the Toretto's. They know what they are getting themselves into. And now they will pay for it. Alia is strong, she will be fine. "

I guess I heard ' I hope so ' which made my heart hammer in my chest. Oh lord please keep her safe.

......

" You think I'm not trying?  Are you kidding me.  She is my sister,  do you hear that......."
Asher was on the phone talking to Xavier and both of them were barking loudly at each other.

" Listen, just stay out of this. You will make it worse. Dad has his full suspicion on you and your father. Don't try anything that will make both of us regret. "

He disconnected the call,  pacing back and forth the study room.  I was discharged a few days back and let me tell this, I am not happy to see the mansion. Everyone is on high alert and are cautious about everything.

Suddenly Asher throws his phone to the ground, breaking into pieces. I jumped a little, scared of the action.

" I can't fucking believe it. That Sebastian and his gang have the audacity to pull something like this. I am two hundred percent sure there is someone else helping him out. Once I find out where is she being kept, trust me that day will be the last day Sebastian will walk on this earth. " 

I move closer to him hugging him from behind  and placing my head on his back. He relaxes under my touch and let's out a sigh. He whispers we will find her.

The silence was broken by my phone ringing.  I remove  it from my back pocket , reading Scar's name. Placing the phone on my ear I answer with a hello.

" Hello.... "
" They are kidnapped. They.....they took them." Scar answers and starts crying.
I place the call on speaker letting Asher hear too.

" Who kidnapped who? "
At the word kidnap Asher's ears raised.
" Olivia, me, Ray and Lucas, we decided to have lunch in a restaurant, since it's been days we have not gone anywhere . Suddenly on our way back our car was jumped by four black SUVs.  A lot of shooting later they tricked us and....and took them. All the three. They left me to tell you guys this."

" where are you?  We are coming to get you. Keep your call on. " Asher speaks into the phone as he grabs his car keys, skipping over to the garage. I follow behind.

As we reach the garage, a very furious Noah comes towards us.
" Mia,  she is involved in it. "
" What!?!" I couldn't believe my ears, since I have known that girl for a few years now. Before these guys she was my only friend.

" Yea I should have done this long back. Since Armaan's funeral she has vanished into thin air. Like she never existed here. I even went to her old house and guess what.... It's locked. I broke the lock and found nothing in the room, like not even a fiber of anything, except for the empty floors and ceilings. The neighbors have no idea where they are,  or when did they disappear ."

" What about Derek? " I ask .
" Why did you ask about Derek all of a sudden?" Asher asked with creases eyebrows.

Noah too seemed confused as he stares at me a little longer waiting for some answer.

But no answer came from my side. So we quietly gathered in the car , to save our remaining friends.

But little did we know we were walking in a well built mouse trap .
