Niccolo Knights

It's been two weeks since Olivia and I got back together again. I tell you, never have I felt in cloud nine again.

The day Jowee and Erin caught us making out in Olivia's kitchen, they both spent the day with us listening as to how we became okay again. At first they both tried to knock some senses to Olivia that there will be a high chance of me repeating the mistakes but I assure them, especially Olivia that I will never ever hurt her again.

I also apologized to Jowee and Erin's because I owed it to them. But Jowee didn't give me an easy way out, she ordered that for them to be able to accept my apologies, they needed to let out the anger they had on me by punching me.

I agreed because what's a single punch of a 2 petite women, right? But I spoke too soon, I forgot that they were like Olivia. So when they punched me on my both of my arms, imagine how hurt I was but I needed to contain myself because I didn't want to show them that their punch fucking hurts.

Seriously, that's how much they're mad at me? Geez. I'm glad that Olivia told them that they can only give me one punch each or else they would've beaten me to a pulp.

Also, for two weeks, me and Dylan stayed at Olivia's apartment to spend time with her. Dylan was so happy when mom and dad dropped him off at Olivia's apartment. He kept on jumping and screaming "Yehey! My Mommy's here! Mommy's here!"

They were inseparable, I tell you. There's an instance when they both ignored me the whole day because they were so engrossed with each other. I had to throw a little tantrum to Olivia that night and I actually didn't mind though because she rewarded me with her kisses when we're about to sleep.

Two days ago, mom and dad took Dylan for they will be taking him and Ellie to the newly opened kid's cafe in town. Also, Olivia forced me last night to go home but I was reluctant because I was worried that her nightmares will come back again when I'm gone.

However, she assured me that she's fine now, that she's gotten over that trauma already so as much as I didn't want to leave, I agreed but I left her a series of reminder to call me if she ever needed me or got scared all of a sudden. She assured me and with a heavy heart, I went home.

Now, I am on my to Olivia's office to fetch her for our dinner date tonight. I stopped at Nikkie and asked her if the boss was alone inside. She nodded and I thanked her then knocked. I heard a faint come in and so I did.

She was looking out of her massive office window with contentment when I came in. She looked at me and smiled widely then walked towards me. I met her halfway and hugged her.

I inhaled her addicting scent and kisses her slowly on her lips.

"I told you to call me when your near. That way you won't come up here anymore." She said while wiping the smudged lipstick on my lip.

"Then we wouldn't get to do that." I said pertaining to the heated kiss we shared.

She smiled sweetly at me and I dipped my head again to kiss her but seconds after kissing her for the second time, a  very angry voice boomed. So we pulled away from each other.

"What the fuck are you two doing?" Asked by a very angry Zachary who's on his way to punch me but Olivia quickly stood in front of me to block his fuming brother.

"Zac, calm down." Olivia Placed her hand in front of her to stop her brother while the other held my arm behind her.

Zac stopped in front of her and glared at me.

"Calm down? How can I fucking calm down when you're lip locking with the person who hurt you. Are you out of your mind, Olivia?" He held Olivia's shoulders and wiggled her slightly.

"Zac, can you just please calm down? Just calm down, brother." Olivia spoke carefully and continued, "We're back together again."

"That's bullshit! If this is because he saved you from that fucking bastard and you thought that you owe it to him, then you're wrong." He shouted.

"It's not about that, Zac. I have forgiven him long before that. So please forgive him. I love him, brother, we love each other." Olivia explained and what? She already forgave me long ago?

"No!" Zac's face turned deadly furious wherein you can see smoke coming out of his ears and nose. He shifted his glare from Olivia to me then slowly took a step forward.

Olivia tried to push him but he's too strong for her and now, she's being sandwiched by us.

"I will never, ever, forgive you for what you did to my sister." He was gritting his teeth while telling that to me.

"I'm sorry Zac for what I did. I know it would be hard to believe but I promise to not hurt your sister again. I now know that---" he cut me off by holding both of my collar. Olivia on the other hand tried to remove his hands from me.

"Shut up!!! You promised to me that you won't hurt Olivia but what did you do? You still fucking hurt her and you made her go to the other side of the globe!" He snapped at me and was about to punch me but he stopped mid air when we heard Erin's voice.

"Zachary, stop it. Please stop it." Erin held his arm and we all looked at her.
Zac pushed me harshly and stumbled a little. Olivia took it a chance to place on the farthest corner of her office to avoid Zac's wrath while she stood in front of me.

"No. He didn't deserve Livy's forgiveness nor another chance at her! He hurt her!" He said in a calm voice yet you can still hear anger in them. His eyes too turned a little soft from the stormy furious eyes he had awhile ago.

It's true, Zac has feelings towards Erin. They both like each other.

"Olivia's the one to decide if she will forgive him as well as give him a chance, which she already did. If he hurt Olivia again, then it will be her fault." Erin explained to him and he looked at me glaring.

"If you hurt her again, I will fucking kill you and I will make sure that you will never, ever, ever, find her again." He warned me and was about to take a step but Erin held his arm.

"I promise that I will not hurt her again. I love your sister so much, Zac, and I now know my mistakes. I guarantee you and to you, Olivia, that I won't do anything that will hurt you and Dylan again." I promised to them.

"I know." Olivia smiled and held my arm.

"I don't believe you anymore." Zac spat.

I was about to answer him but my phone rang. Olivia nodded to urge me to answer the phone call. When I looked at the caller ID, I saw Dad's name. I furrowed my brows because the only time he will be calling me through his mobile phone was about business or if there's any emergencies and mom's so freaked out that she couldn't think properly.

I hope it's the former.

"Dad?"

"Nick, where are you?" He asked me in a serious yet slightly panicked voice.

"I'm at Olivia's office. Why?" I looked at Olivia and she raised both of her brows questioning me. I shrugged my shoulders slightly at her to tell her that I too didn't know.

"We're on our way to your house. Go home son." He said and I furrowed my brows.

"Dad what is going on?" I asked confusedly and I felt Olivia's hand held my arm, confusion was etched on her face too.

"Calm down, okay. Cassandra took Dylan." Dad said slowly and I widened my eyes.

"What?!" I asked to confirm if what I heard was correct.

"Cassandra Tucker took Dylan. She went to our house and took him while he was playing at our background." Dad explained and a chill ran down my spine.

"H-how did you know? I mean, he must be h-hiding somewhere in the house." I stuttered and my knees wanted to give up.

"Rebecca told us when we were looking for him and then we saw the footage from Mrs. Robinson's cctv." Dad said and I stilled.

"We're on our way to your house, son. According to Rebecca, Cassandra will be on her apartment as she will have to pickup something she forgot." Dad informed me and I nodded. 

"Nick, stay calm so you can think." Dad said and hung up.

"What's going on, Nick?" Olivia asked and I remembered Domenik and called him.

He picked up on the first ring.

"Find Cassandra Tucker. She has my son." I ordered and I heard two gasps and it came from the two women.

After I hung up, Olivia spoke.

"Nick what happened to Dylan? H-how did Cassandra... Why did she..." She couldn't form any words and I held her hand.

"He'll be fine. I'll have to go home, Dad's already on their way their." I said calmly but on the inside, I was panicking. We're talking about my son here, a three year old toddler who knew nothing from the evilness of the world.

"I-I'm coming with you." Her voice cracked and immediately took her bag from her desk and held my hand. We passed by Erin and Zac and went out of her room.

I pressed the lift button repeatedly to make it faster.

"Come on!!" I raised my voice and seconds later, the lift doors opened. We went in as well as Zac and Erin.

"Niccolo, what happened? Please tell me." Olivia asked and she was about to cry.

"Cassandra took Dylan while he's playing at the backyard. According to Rebecca, she will be on her apartment to take some of her stuff." I said briefly and supported Olivia.

"Why? How? Why him?" Her voice cracked again.

"I don't know. But I will find her."

"Nick find our son. Please find Dylan. Oh my God." Olivia held both of my hands and I nodded.

The lift doors opened signalling that we already arrived at the parking lot. We went immediately to my car and drove to my house. Zac's car followed us also.

As we arrived in my house, we went immediately to the drawing room and I called Domenik again and placed him to speaker mode to ask the status of their search.

"We still couldn't find her, sir. We couldn't track her phone because it was turned off. I already deployed a team to guard at her apartment but---"

"She was about to go there!!! According to Rebecca, she left something in her apartment." I shouted and glared at the phone.

"We'll look into it, sir. We're also looking at the possibility of her having another unit. I notified other teams and sent them her photo and Dylan's photo." He said.

"I don't care what you do, just find my son. I want him safe and sound." I said while gritting my teeth and hung up.

I looked at Olivia who's sitting silently with a forlorn look in her face. I went to her and sat beside her.

"Baby, nothing's going to happen to our son. We'll find him." I consoled her and she looked at me tears brimming in her eyes.

"This is all my fault. If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't be her target."

"Shhh. No baby, it wasn't your fault. It's nobody's fault. Stop blaming yourself, love." I said and put my arm around her and leaned her head on the crook of my neck.

"Niccolo."

"We looked at the door and saw my whole family entering one by one including Rebecca who has a very worried face.

Olivia stood up abruptly and walked towards the direction of Rebecca and slapped her hard on her face.  stumbled

"You fucking bitch! This is all your fault! If it wasn't about you petty jealousy then my son's still here! You bitch!!" She was about to pull her hair when I held her to stop her from bursting and to save also Rebecca from her wrath.

Everyone was shocked because this was the first time they saw her like that. I carried her away from Rebecca and placed her beside Erin.

"Baby, calm down. Please calm down. It will not help us if we let our emotions get in the way. Please, love." I said carefully and cautiously and she nodded weakly.

"I'll try." She said and I kissed her forehead.

"Let me talk to her." I said and looked at Erin to signal her to take care of her and she nodded.

I then went to Rebecca who's now sitting at the one seater love seat.

I looked at her intensely and spoke.

"Tell me everything you know." I said sternly and sat at the coffee table in front of her. She gulped when she saw the anger in my eyes and remained speechless.

"Tell me!" I raised my voice and hit the armrest. She was startled and jumped at my actions.

"S-she came to my house t-this morning telling me that she saw you and Olivia a-at a g-grocery store. She saw how happy you two were and got mad at me for the unsuccessful plan she made to separate the two of you. Then she saw Dylan and Tessa came back from their walk. She told me that since she cannot separate you two, she'll just take your happiness. She'll t-take D-Dylan." She paused when she saw fury in my face.

"I-I swear I didn't agree to what she had said. I love your son, I didn't want him to be involved into any of this. That's why I persuaded her to not involve him and to stop her revenge to Olivia because it wasn't her fault that she lost her child." I heard multiple gasps when she said it.

"What are saying? What do you mean about her losing her child?" Olivia asked confusedly and stood beside me.

"She got pregnant by Francis. She was so happy when she knew about it and was so excited to tell it to him. But when she told it to him, he gotten mad and wanted her to abort the baby. Of course she didn't agree because she loves the baby growing inside her. And when Francis knew that she didn't heed to what he said, he hit her and forcefully took her to a clinic that performs abortion. After the surgery, he told her that he's doing this for you." She paused and looked at Olivia sadly.

"He was scared that if you knew that he impregnated her, there will be no chance of him having you back. But Cassandra didn't care about Francis anymore and made up her mind to raise her baby on her own. However, Francis thought that she was madly in love with him and she would use the baby as blackmail to him that's why he did what he did."

"Since then, she vowed that she will make your life miserable as you did to her." She stopped and looked at the ground.

I saw red when I heard it. I wanted to kill Francis for what he did to his child and because of him, my son's in the hand of a desperate woman.

"I would never ask anyone to do that. Besides, I made it clear to him that we're through, that there's no hope between us when I caught him cheating with her." Olivia clarified herself and I stood up to assist her.

"I know. And I saw how annoyingly kind hearted person you are. That's why I kept on begging her to stop her revenge to you because you're also a victim. But don't you worry, she won't hurt your son. She may look like a bad person but when it comes to children, she's not." She said but I didn't trust her words.

"I will only believe you if I already see my son safe and sound." Olivia said and held Rebecca's arm to stand her.

"If something happens to him even just a scratch, you and your cousin better hide very well because I guarantee you that you will regret involving Dylan into this. Mark my words." Olivia warned darkly and pushed her harshly then walked away.

"If you really love Dylan, help us track her down. Tell us everything you know." I begged her and she looked down.

"I'm so sorry, Niccolo, but since she became jobless, she didn't update me with everything that's going on in her life. I'm so sorry." She apologized and I sighed.

After a tensed one hour, Zac's phone rang and he put it into speaker mode.

"Markus, tell me everything." He said and I went to him because I know who Markus is, he's his trusted personal investigator, just like Domenik to me.

"Since yesterday, we lost her tracks, she knew that she's being followed sir and she hasn't been to her apartment for a week now and we couldn't find where she's staying at. We tried tracking her credit cards but she's not using it for a month now. As per her atm records, she been withdrawing to the same branch which is near her apartment building." He said and Olivia shouted at them.

"You useless pieces of shits! We're not paying you to just sit around and waste our money! Do your fucking job properly. How can a slender woman be out of your sight? Find her! Find my son! The next time you call, it better be a good news. Do you understand?!" She bursted and ordered them authoritatively.

"We do, Ms. North." Markus affirmed and she hung up the call.

She looked at me worriedly and was about to cry.

"Nick, my baby. I'm worried about him. It's about to get dark, what if he's scared, or if he's hungry? What if he cries non stop and Cassandra would get irritated by it and drop him off somewhere?" She cried and I hugged her.

"Shh. That's not going to happen. Let's just hope that she won't do it." I hugged her tightly and kissed her head.

"This is all my fault. If it wasn't for me, Dylan won't get compromised. This is all my fault, Niccolo. I don't think I can forgive myself if anything happens to him." She looked at me and blamed herself.

"I told you, it wasn't your fault. Stop blaming yourself." I wiped her tears and kissed her forehead.

Seconds turned to minutes and minutes turned to hours. We still haven't heard from either Domenik and Markus. It drives me crazy, you know, but I couldn't show it to Olivia or to anyone because if do, everyone will breakdown and we'll lose a sense of thought.

But there's only one thing in my mind that I am holding on to that is, wherever my son is, I hope that he's safe and that Cassandra won't harm him.

Hello loves,

Huhuhu. I hope Dylan's alright and that Cassandra didn't hurt him or anything.

Anyway, as this story is about to end, I would like to do a little survey if you want me to make a book about Erin and Zac's love story? Kindly comment your thoughts.
