Esther's POV.

 I weakly opened my eyes with a severe pain in my head and an ache in my neck due to the way I tilted my head when I slept. I groaned and tried to raise my hand to touch my head but I couldn't.

My body was tied to a chair and my mouth was covered with a duct tape. Where I sat, I sensed the severe unpleasant scent of petrol.

So basically I had been kidnapped in case you didn't know what I meant.

Anyway, I came to know more about my situation when I saw three hefty looking (Probably hefty too) with guns in their hands standing away from me.

They seem friendly don't you think?

"She's awake." One announced. I suddenly heard footsteps coming towards me and my eyes widened at the macho man who squatted in front of me. He placed his hand at the end of the duct tape and whacked it off harshly, making me wince.

"Ouch! Be gentle next time!" I groaned. "Okay hey guys, I'm just a little innocent girl who had been mistakenly kidnapped so please can you return me back home? I miss my husband, friends and families and also can you untie this rope so that I can get these snacks out of my pockets and eat? Or maybe you could reach my pockets and do it for me I'm hungry as hell. Also can I get some water and painki-"

"SHUT UP!" One of them bawled, firing a gun in the air making me gasp.

"If you didn't want me to talk, you shouldn't have removed this duct tape because I have a lot of questions to ask. Why the fuck am I here first of all , what do you guys want from a useless girl like me?.." I kept rambling out questions and they looked like they wished they didn't kidnapped me.

"Yeah, so take me back to my husband, well yeah I tried running away but then I realized my mistake of doing that so I was about to go to him when one of you grabbed me so please just-"

My words stopped midway when the macho man in front of me slapped me..really really hard and my cheek tinged of intense pain. The tight slap echoed in the old abandoned warehouse.

"That shut her up but if boss finds out you slapped-"

"What the fuck just happened?!" A familiar deep voice boomed  and I looked over the room. What I saw rendered me shocked and to add more to it, the macho man who slapped me was shot at his glabella.

He ordered the two other men to drag the lifeless body away as I sat there trembling. For the second time in my life, I had been slapped well since the first one was a dream. Again, I had witnessed another murder. Okay the first one didn't happen. Fuck I'm confused because he had finally come back,

Hulio São Tomé.

 He blew off the pistol and bent in front of me.

"Hello, Sweetheart." He smirked wickedly.

Terrance's POV.

"Terrance, you need to calm down and sit." Karen said worriedly.

"Calm down? What the fuck? How the fuck do you fucking expect me to calm the fuck down? Its been three fucking hours and there's no sign of my wife and what if she's in danger? Huh?!" I snarled and she rubbed her forehead.

"What the-" I paused when my phone rang. I quickly moved towards it, and took it hoping it was Esther calling but I remembered she left her phone here when I discovered that the caller was an unknown number.

I frowned in confusion and picked up the call. I could here soft feminine sobs from the other end and my heart ached when I found out who it was.

"Esther? Where are you? Why are you crying?" I asked softly. She didn't say anything but she continued to sob.

"Esther!" I called again but she didn't speak. "Esther say something where the-"

"It seems that your wife which I hate to admit she is does not want to speak to you." A different but still familiar voice spoke over the phone. It was that same  guy who stabbed me.

It was also that same guys who said I should stay away from someone. Everything then just dawned me. Esther had lied to me the day I asked her whether she was hiding something from me. But why the hell did she lie? And who the fuck is after her?

I didn't have time to feel hurt because currently I was worried about her and the danger she was in.

"Leave her alone." I warned lowly clenching my fists and jaw at the same time.

"Last time I checked, I warned you to stay away from her, because I told you she's mine but since you didn't listen, there will be consequences."

"What do you want?" I demanded.

"I already have what I want so I don't think I need any thing from you." He chuckled.

"I'm warning you bastard, don't you dare touch her.." I growled as the others in the hall looked keenly at me.

"But I already have..Look at how sweet her cheeks are, so soft and plumpy are her tempting lips and damn  she's got some smooth thighs!" He remarked and clenched my jaw even tighter to hold in a large amount of anger.

"Hey, guess what I'll do to her. I'm gonna fuck her, torture her and finally kill her." he announced and I furiously ran my hands through my hair and shut my eyes really tight as I imagined myself skinning that idiot alive. He wouldn't fucking dare if he loved his life.

"You won't get away with this." I snarled.

"But I already have, okay, let me send you a pic of how she looks like." He countered and hung up. Minutes later, I got a message which was a form of a picture and I visibly winced.

Esther's beautiful hair was a mess, her right cheeks was swollen, her face was flushed and her body was tied to a chair making my heartache more severely this time.

"Terrance, who called?" Jamila asked.

"Esther has been kidnapped." I answered feeling bloodshot in my eyes as I clamped my phone in my hand.

"What?! Who the fuck kidnapped her?" Silas demanded.

"It was that stupid guy who caused my accident and now he has Esther and I don't know where he has her but if I get that son of a bitch, I'm gonna murder him." I threatened.

"What are we going to do now?" Karen worriedly asked.

"Terrance, try calling the police." Nina suggested and I got a text.

 I forgot to add. If you even attempt to look at the number of a police officer, you'll come to dead body in ashes.

"Shit. We can't call the police." I grumbled.

"But how will we save her?" Nina asked.

"We have to find a way." I muttered.

Silas' POV

"Don't tell me you went to the extend of kidnapping her just to get your revenge, she has nothing to do with this." I said and the other end roared with laughter.

"I haven't kidnapped her." He confused me.

"Then where the fuck is she?" I demanded.

"Dunno, but made a deal." He said

"Wait, you mean you made a deal with her kidnapper?!" I asked

"I won't tell you." He groaned.

"Then why the fuck did you call me?" I asked irritated,

" I don't even know but who the fuck gives a shit?" He chuckled.

"Are you high again?" I asked. Yep, I finally found out that was what he was hiding.

"Yes you mother fucker..you know what? I'm just gonna kill you." He slurred and hung up. I knew he was joking so I put my phone aside and sat upright on the bed.

I really suspected my brother for the kidnap of Esther. But why would he kidnap her? Esther had done no wrong and heck he doesn't even know her. I groaned in frustration and ran my fingers through my hair.

Esther had to be found at any cost and I don't mind killing my brother just to get her back.
