ZACK POV Noticing the empty office of the active admins, I knew something was wrong. From inception, before I was brought on board in this company, a record was shown that Kayla is one of the active admins so far. I immediately reached out to my phone and dialed Kayla. After a try, her phone was switched off. Having a dead battery, especially for someone like her, is just weird. Since my father was present at his table, I called him and he responded after a few seconds. "Hello, Dad", I opened the conversation after he responded from the other end. "Zack, what's the issue over there?" "I didn't see you or Kayla in the office. I The thing I wanted to submit the report meant for my department, I explained as he was still from the other side. I heard sobs from the other end, which made me alert that something had gone wrong. "I just heard sobs in the background. What's going on, Dad?" My curiosity kicked in and was at its peak at that moment. A brief hesitation was between us, which
KAYLA POV I tried to blink severally times to ensure it was a nightmare, but reality hit me hard. I was in the lion's den, and the hungry lion was trying to be nice with his prey. The room was just basic but had electricity and basic furniture for a bedroom. Checking around, I discovered that electronic gadgets or devices were nowhere near that room. As I was looking around, my stomach rumbled loudly, which I need to I'll take a choice. Before now, I told myself that I wouldn't partake in this meal they brought. But this stomach rumbling made me reconsider my stance as I knew I had to do something sooner or later. Moving close to the table, the pizza box was still untouched. After a moment of hesitation, I opened the pizza box to reveal mouthwatering pizza before me. My stomach rumbled even louder and violently at the sight of the pizza. At a rough instinct, I took a bite and in seconds I tore down every slice and gulped down the can of soda. I didn't realize that I was too hu
KAYLA POVI was left alone in that damn room for some hours. At one point, I felt frustrated and tensed up for different reasons. First, being in this damn room instead of my office, which happens to be my second home. Also, the attitude and character of these people pisses me off. My perfectly arranged clothing has become twisted because of the tension of this human trap. To worsen my mood, my physical body couldn't take it as it was approaching a dead end. The ropes were knotted so hard that I barely felt my hands due to the pressure of the knot. There were instances I tried to break down from the knot, but it made my situation worse. This situation can cause a breakdown for me, but I had to endure. While contemplating, 2 of the abductors came into the room and stared blankly at me. I expected them to say something, but they were silent for reasons that I can't explain."Please, I need water", I struggled to let out a voice that they heard. Luckily for me, one of them disappeared
LUCAS POV My mind was just as confused as my face due to this situation. Kayla being kidnapped was the thing I least expected since she doesn't have much life outside of her office life and family life. Currently, I'm left to comfort the sad mother of a daughter who happens to be my wife. She was sobbing, but I told her to calm down. While thinking of a way forward, I took out my phone and dialed Kayla's number. It rang, but no response was heard. After the ringing session ended, I called again, but no response. This situation made me more furious than I nearly burst into flame with anger. At my third attempt, the phone wasn't connecting. From my instincts, I knew the phone had been shut down by these perpetrators. Naomi, who was paying keen attention, dropped her face to her knees. I had to move closer and pat her back continually. My mind was just down and flooded with intense fury. At an instinctive move, I helped carry her face from her knees. "You know they'll call again dema
LUCAS POVThe air became lovely all of a sudden as I gained consciousness to the new day. Remembering yesterday's events at dinner remains my motivation for the day. Personally, I didn't expect the return of my family. I guess all thanks goes to Kayla for comforting me and guiding me through each step.With that, I stood up and had my personal daily routine. After my routine, I prepared to move to the office. Exiting my lounge, Zack was still preparing , and I had no time to waste since there were important documents to sign today. I called Raymond, who organized everything concerning transport.Moving out of the mansion, he was waiting beside the Lamborghini Urus. Personally, I wanted a Range Rover, but I'm open to adjustments as taught by Kayla."Good morning, Sir, " Raymond said as he bowed while I moved closer to him. I nodded in acknowledgment as he opened the door while I entered the car. In an instant , the journey began as the car left my mansion heading to the office."Raymon
KAYLA POVThe disgusting looks on their face were what I couldn't tolerate. After asking my question, which came out of frustration, they still looked at me indifferently and were silent. At this point, I felt like pouncing on them for several reasons. For me, I couldn't believe this was a kidnapping because no lethal forces were used, as I knew in the regular cases. Their mode of operation was a mysterious one that I couldn't understand. From a regular cab driver to bringing me into this damn room. My patience was on the verge of running out at this moment. "What's really going on? Why are you not saying anything? Can I return to my normal life in peace? Can I just....", I yelled these questions till I was interrupted by one of those men in the room. "Shut the fuck up, I'm trying to think here", a guy from that group yelled too, as my questions were cut short by him. "And what if I don't shut up? What are you niggas gonna do?" I asked him with an air of arrogance and deviance run
