Sebastian adjusted his cuff, adding cuff links as his tie draped from his neck.
As he button up the final buttons of his shirt and did tied his tie, he grabbed his lounge jacket and make his way out of the bedroom, closing the door behind him.
He didn't bother looking behind, his mind was driving him insane despite looking unaffected on the exterior.
He blamed himself.
After all, if she had never met him, she would've never gone through god knows what was happening to her.
A part of him couldn't help but wish that she had never met him, sure that the side-effect of not knowing love meant nothing to him if it risked her safety.
His loneliness was something he could easily sacrifice as he would rather have him in pain than a finger laid on her.
Coming down the stairs, he breezed past the kitchen, his appetite seemingly gone the last few days.
Instead, he made his way to his car and pulled up the garage and starting it.
"Open the gates, I'm leaving." He spoke coldly into his Bluetooth, "Give the headquarters a heads-up to open the gates for my car, I don't want to wait."
Pulling out of the driveway in a rush, he drove out of his residence, not paying anyone any attention before stepping on the gas and letting his car speed.
The headquarters weren't far away but it seemed shorter due to the 90 mile speed he was breezing at.
At the sight of his car and license plate getting closer, the men at the gate opened it up, in fear of getting told off otherwise.
"Isn't he driving too fast?" One of the men asked as he watched as Sebastian passed the first gate in his car.
"Don't let him hear you, he has this place rigged." The other warned, more experienced, "He's in a bad mood right now. It's never been this bad and no one wants to be on the wrong side of him right now."
Despite not hearing the quiet exchange of words, Sebastian had known that his personality had people on edge the last couple of days.
But he couldn't give two fucks if he tried, especially when the issue at hand related to Arielle.
Most of the men didn't know the severity of the situation because they lacked the understanding of how much she meant to him. Instead, they thought that he wanted her back to avoid legal troubles of a missing woman, worried that she might file charges when that wasn't even close.
If she filed charges against him, to him it would be better as she was there in front of him to file charges instead of leaving him lost.
The wheel screeched as he pulled to the front of the building and pocketed the keys and walking through the doors that were held open for him.
Everyone halted, worried that a slight movement might put them in harm's way.
Sebastian's complextion looked more intimidating that usual. His dark eyes that held no emotion eerily seemed calm. It was as if he was waiting for one more thing to test him before all hell broke loose.
"We were able to get access to footage of one of the cameras in the boutique but we suspect that there are more that can only be accessed in store, they seemed to have seen this coming." Jaxon reported as he caught up to Sebastian, "The control center has footage ready for you to review and a car has been sent to pick up your brother like you instructed."
Sebastian curtly nodded, "Figure out how to get entry into the boutique and after my brother arrives we'll head there together. Get more men on Zach's tail, figure out where he his, that idiot isn't smart enough to work without leaving trails. He doesn't know how to clean up after himself."
