Grayson's POV

43, 44, 45...

I counted each push-up, I had nothing else to do. Ethan was out with Maya at a doctors appointment and Jose and Carlos were doing something for Daniel.

51, 52, 53...

I feel a little left out. When we went to the beach I thought it was for swimming and stuff but everyone was so serious, they were just talking. Emma was the only one who got into the water.

Am I missing something? Maybe I should've come back earlier, nah, being away was very therapeutic.

I stopped at sixty before grabbing a bottle of water.

"Hey there" Anais just walked into my suite.

"Come on in" I said sarcastically.

"I can do as I please, my dad owns the place" she said as she walked towards all the lamps taking the light bulbs out of them before taking out mics.

What the fuck?

"Oh and" she reached up to a painting that I though was absolutely horrible ripping out a small camera from it.

"What the fuck?" I asked out loud. She came over to me kissing me but I pulled back. "Anais, what the hell was that?"

"Don't worry about it, he's just paranoid. It'll only be a problem for you if you have bad intentions, do you have bad intentions?" She asked seriously.

"No" maybe.

"Okay then" she kissed me again.

"Stop" I placed my hand on her shoulder gently pushing her away. "This cant happen"

"Why not?" She asked with an attitude.

"Your dad will skin me alive if he found out about this" I said drinking some water.

"So we don't let him find out" she said nonchalantly as her fingers traced my abs.

"Anais, no" I said pushing her hand away.

"Fine" she glared at me. "You'll come crawling back, they always do"

Yeah okay.

With that she left.

Now to find out what the fuck is going on around here.

Ethan's POV

I knew Daniel had something to do with the disappearance of Colton. I just wanted to ask him and see if he'd crack.

"Ethan! What a pleasant surprise" he said once I entered his office. "What brings you here? I thought you were at a doctors appointment with the lovely Maya" I never told him about that.

"Just wanted to know if you knew anything about the disappearance of Maya's bodyguard, Colton" I held my hands behind my back.

He looked shocked. "No, this I the first I'm hearing of this. I'll get my best men on it, and in the mean time I'll have my personal body guard, Pietro, guard Maya and that bundle of joy she's carrying"

Shit.

"That's fine, sir. Maya has my brother and I, you have many more enemies than she does keep Pietro for you" I said trying to keep calm.

If Pietro was assigned to Maya Daniel would know her every move.

"I insist" he had that challenging smirk on his face. He was onto me.

"Fine, thank you for your kindness" I tried my best not to jump over this desk and choke him out.

I left his office hating myself, not only did I make this worse but he's suspicious now. He'll be keeping a closer eye on us.

Maya's POV

"I'm so glad everything's okay, these past few days have been so stressful" I said to lily as we walked out of the doctors office.

"I'll call a cab" Lily took her phone out.

"No need" Pietro, daniels body guard popped up in front of us. "Daniel has sent me to watch over you since Colton has sadly disappeared"

I looked over at lily who was visibly terrified.

"That's okay, we're fine. I'll just call my husband" I said hoping he'd leave but I knew better.

"Daniel insists" he said in a stern voice but he had a smile on his face.

We got into the car as lily clutches my hand tightly.

I hope to god Ethan has a plan.

Colton's POV

I was suddenly awoken by cold water being splashed on me.

I gasped sucking in air the chains on my wrists clinking.

"Tell me what you know" Daniel was sitting in a chair in front of me.

I was still here, still in this hell hole.

"Tell me what you know !" He yelled one my face.

I miss my wife. She has to be horrified right now. Not knowing where i am.

He punched me in the face and I felt hot stuff dripping from my nose as I hissed in pain.

"Come on , Colton. Talk!" He was getting impatient. We have only been here for two minutes and he he's already so angry. "How about of o cut one of these off, Hmm?" He gripped one of my hands and I looked at him as though I was bored even though I was scared I wasn't going to make it out alive. I wasn't going to see Rayna again.

He scoffed. "I could torture for hours and you won't budge"

He was right, nothing he could do to me would make me break.

"But your wife" No. "Rayna? Is it?"

I looked up at him, my eyes wild.

"Ah, a reaction" he smiled. "Tell me what they're up to and I won't touch a hair on her pretty little head"

"Who?" I croaked.

"Don't play dumb Colton" he spat.

"Nothing, they're not doing anything. They're trying to survive, trying to heal from what's happened to them" I said fuming.

"Liar" he whispered. "I'll kill, I'll fucking do it. I'll bring her here and blow her brains out, Colton" he kneeled down in front of me.

"I'm telling you the truth" this man is insane, no matter what I tell him I'm not leaving this place alive.

I love you, Rayna.

I head butted him and he fell back as his goons began attacking me.
