"So where is she?" He angrily said. Slamming his fist on the desk.

"We don't know sir, we can't find anything." A worker announced.

"Do you know what that means for you?" Martin snared. "That you are now fucking jobless, get the fuck out of my face." Martin went to walk past him but the worker went to interrupt his statement.

"But sir-"

So Martin's mind stood still whilst his presence had the worker by the throat against the wall. The man desperately reaching for air.

"Don't interrupt me. Ever. I want her found by the end of this week, if she's not- your family will be dead." Martins eyes staring coldly at him. The workers face shifted- in disgust at the thought.

Martin didn't sell windows but was in the Mafia, hence why everything went downhill when the checks came flooding in for the Chamberlains.

He's killed thousands, some by hand but mostly by his gang in Europe. Big killers, scary and extremely intimidating but never to be seen. Looked away for whenever needed.

Martin got involved when he was revealed to his uncles lifestyle and didn't turn down joining it as his family needed the money. Little did he know he would to trade in his innocence, happiness and role as a Father.

It was better for everyone that way.

"Sir, we might have something." A lady ran into the office, shocked.

They had been looking for Emma for weeks and weeks but they couldn't see a sign of her due to her disappearance with Michelle. No one knew Martins motive, not even him.

He just needed her.

Martin said nothing but dropped the struggling worker which was searching to catch his breath and headed towards the crowd surrounding a laptop.

"What is it?" Crossing his arms.

"So- Emma has been missing for a while and whilst I don't know exactly where she is-"

"I don't fucking want to know where she isn't! I want to fucking know where she is, you useless bitch!" He said, throwing a tantrum and throwing a different computer at the brick wall.

People didn't look shocked as they would see this behaviour on a daily so she continued.

"But I think I might know where he is." She said whilst pointing at a picture of Grayson.

It's a picture of them on his Instagram, one he hasn't deleted. She looked so pretty and dressed up as so does he. They were on a beach and it all looked so nice which caused Martin to feel abit emotional.

It's him that ruined this all.

"Find him and where his family are. Now." Martin turned on his heels and went back to his office but was bombarded by one worker. The same he strangled.

"What will you do?" He said following and closing the office door behind him as Martin sat in his massive chair.

"I will get some answers and we will talk for a while," Martin nodded to himself and then stroked his chin through thinking. "Oh and then I'll kill him."

Things are the fucking best. Emma and I really have settled into our nice apartment in New York. It's a dream for her I know which is why I asked Roman to give in and let us have it.

She doesn't know that though.

Although Emma was 17 and I just turned 19. We were so capable of this lifestyle and I was shocked by how much older she seems now. It's like this situation has made her grow up and I kinda love it.
