Cole's POV

I slammed my hand on the table in anger.

"What do you mean?!?" I yelled. "You were given a job... just one fucking job and you messed it up!?"

"I... I" The guard stuttered.

"Speak clearly". I said in a dangerously low tone.

"I- I was knocked out". He said.

"Who knocked you out?" I asked him, trying to calm myself down. Causing a scene wouldn't solve the problem.

"He didn't reveal his face". He said shakily.

I clenched my jaw, as well as my fists.

"Actually, I stumbled on his unconscious body when I came to serve miss Brittany's food... Her door was open and I found a tray of untouched food on the table". The female slave said.

"I remember him forcing me to tell miss Brittany that I had to deliver her food so she could unlock the door". The guard said.

I exhaled calmly and said "Okay, you can leave".

After they left, I picked up my phone and dialed Malcolm's number, asking him to come to my office... Well, more like ordering him.

"What- how?" Malcolm said, dumbfounded after I told him about Brittany's kidnap. He knew how important Brittany was to me. I was seconds away from losing it. But nothing was going to get solved if I didn't remain calm.

"We need to figure out who kidnapped her". I said.

Malcolm nodded in agreement.

"Question all the guards... Especially those that were supposed to guard the main entrance ". 

"On it. But I have to tell you... Remain calm". He said before leaving.

I'll try.

He came back a few hours later.

"I've questioned them all". He said.
"I have a suspect"

I looked up attentively, waiting for him to continue.

"Adrian. He left the building with one of his pets who was hideously dressed. Normally, he hardly puts on any clothes for his pets so..."

I clenched my fists.

"Any other person?" I asked through gritted teeth.

"Not really... But there's someone I think may know about this"

"Who?"

"His male pet. Isn't it suspicious that he suddenly gets a male pet, not just an ordinary pet but one that he never takes blood from?" He said.

"Call him in for questioning then". I said.

**
After interrogating Nathan, Adrian's only male pet, I figured that he actually didn't know anything about Adrian kidnapping Britt but he gave out hints that he heard Adrian talking about it with someone.

That could only mean that someone else was behind Adrian kidnapping Brittany.

I knew exactly who it was.

Brittany's POV

I let out a cough as I slowly regained consciousness. The cough was due to how parched my throat was. It only took a split second before I realized I was tired down to a chair.

Well, well...

I didn't bother to struggle with the chains that tied my hands because struggling wasn't going to help, it was only going to make my hand hurt.
