Jensen's POV

The cold water splashed against my face as I heard a voice I knew all too well. "Wake up Mr. Daniels. It's time for your close up." I could barely open my eyes because they were swollen shut. I forced one open a little as I saw a flash from a few feet in front of me. "Perfect, let's see if that little whore will come to save you." Joseph's voice rang in my ear and I tried to get to him, but I was tied down to a chair.

 "She will never come to you. My man won't let her." I hissed at him. I knew Dillion would never bring her here or let her come, he feared me too much. I felt Joseph's fist come against my face and felt the coldness of brass knuckles as it connected to my jaw. I laughed as I spit blood out my mouth. "You can do your worse to me. You will never get her now." I heard him throw something against the wall behind me, but I didn't even flinch.

 "You are a stupid man Jensen. She will be mine and I will make her watch me kill you."

I heard a door slam and knew that I was alone. I tried to pull at the ropes that held me to the chair, but they were tied good. I tried to remember what had happened and how I ended up here. I remembered Jacob finding Joseph at his own home. I had thought that he was either stupid or it was a trap, but I still decided that I needed to end this. So we made a plan and had gone there to attack. I made the mistake of only taking a few men including Mike and Trevor. We had taken out the guards on the outside easy enough so we continued into the house slowly. As soon as we entered the house all hell broke loose. Gunshots rang out all around us and we fired back at anything that moved. It was then that I had seen Joseph heading up the stairs and I took off after him. I could hear Mike yelling at me to stay close, but I didn't care. I followed him up the stairs and into a big room. It looked like he used the room for storage maybe because it was full of all kinds of boxes.

The room was dark, but there was a little light so I could see Joseph in front of me. "Joseph, let's handle this like men. You will never get Lynn she is well protected." I shouted at him and he stopped and turned to me. He had a grin on his face.

 "That's where you're wrong. My man probably has her already and is on his way back." I laughed as I slowly walked towards him. 

"Your man failed and is dead. She is safe." I saw his face fill with anger as he lunged at me. I ducked away from him and threw a punch that connected with his right eye. We threw a few punches at each other then Joseph caught me with an uppercut. It knocked me down and he was on top of me. Pussy, I remember thinking to myself. I was able to land a good punch that knocked him off of me. We both stood and stared at each other. The last thing I remember was looking at Joseph as a huge grin came across his face. Then I got the feeling of what seemed like a thousand vaults of electricity going through my body.

So someone else had been in the room and had tased me. Joseph was believed to be this tough ass who killed anyone that looked at him wrong, but in reality, he just hid behind his men. They did all his dirty work for him. I had a few other memories of someone beating the shit out of me, but it wasn't Joseph. At least I knew that Lynn was safely in Rome away from all this. Even if I died she would be safe. The door opened and I heard Joseph's voice again. "Well, it looks like you are more valuable than you think. Your buddy, Mike, just agreed to bring me, Lynn." He laughed as I once again tried to tear away from the chair. This time though I felt one of the ropes around my wrist snap. I didn't let them know it though and listened as everyone left the room again. I freed my wrist then quickly freed myself from the ropes.

    I had to get out of here. I knew there was no way Mike would betray me, but I couldn't let him fight Joseph alone. I walked quietly to the door and tried it. It was locked, I figured it would be but it was worth a try. I tried to look around the room, but I couldn't see much since my eyes were swollen. I spotted some light coming from the far wall so I slowly made my way over there. When I reached the wall I saw a window that was opened a little. I found a chair and pulled myself up to the window. I pushed at it, but it wouldn't open anymore. Fuck this shit! I slammed my fist through the window shattering it into a million pieces. I heard the door open behind me and some men yelling as I tried to push myself threw the window. I was about halfway threw when I felt someone grab my legs and pull me back inside. They were on top of me before I could even fight back. I felt the taser again and then all I could see was Lynn's face. I'm sorry Lynn I don't know if I can keep my promise, I said to myself before the blackness took over.
