Not leaving anyone behind

    Aryan had been tampering with his family years back and even until the present day.

He took away Aurelio's grandma, hurt every member of his family and now he has his mom.

Aurelio will never allow him take away the woman that brought him into this world.

Erica hands slowly slid down his chest, she was also taken aback by what Aryan had just said.

Is it her Lola?

“You heard me right? You think I was dumb by keeping quiet all those time?" Aryan scoffed.

Erica then slid herself down Aurelio's body, now wasn't the right time for her to be romantic.

“You bastard, you think I'll fall for you games?" Aurelio asked him and Aryan laughed.

“Do you think this is joke? Hear her yourself!' Aryan yelled at him and just few seconds later, Aurelio heard his mom voice from the other end.

“Aurelio, don't listen to him. I'll be fine!!" She hurriedly said before Aryan pulled her away by her hair.

She screamed aloud because of the pain, “you bastard!" She yelled back at him and just then Aurelio heard him slap her.

He clenched his jaw tightly and folded his hands into a fist.

“Shut the fvck up!" Aryan spat out 

“Now you listen to me, if you want to get your mom back alive, you'd have to come here alone with Erica"  he replied and ended the call before Aurelio could say a word.

Erica was already trembling in fear.

She was shaking vigorously and her eyes were teary.

“B-baby, what are you going to do" she cried out and pulled the pillow beside her closer to her chest.

Aurelio looked down at her seated on the bed and crouched beside her.

“I need to go with you, Lola has to come back” she replied as she looked into his eyes.

Aurelio felt broken.

Aryan had made his woman cry, he is hurt by just seeing her cry.

“Honey, you should calm down and stop the tears, I'll come back with Lola and you are not coming with me" he replied and she shook her head.

“It's final, you stay her with the rest of the maids and the guards" he replied

“But ba—" her statement were interrupted by a kiss from Aurelio.

What she really needed.

Aurelio sucked from her lower lips as he wrapped his hands around her neck.

Random thoughts began rushing into her head.

'what if he doesn't survive?'

'what if Lola dies?'

She let the tears flow down her cheeks, Aurelio could tell she was breaking down in tears. He raised his thumb to her cheek as he wiped her tears gently and pulled away from the kiss.

“Promise me you'll come back alive" she said to him as she sniffed back her tears.

“Yes honey, I will"

“And you'll come back with Lola alive" she continued and he nods his head.

“Aurelio please do,  I want a complete family and that includes you, Lola, grandpa and popsie” she replied.

He gave a side smile and pulled her to a hug.

" I assure you will” he replied and pulled away.

" So be good, I have someone to deal with” Aurelio replied and walked out of the room.

   As soon as he got to the hallway, the smile on his face vanished. He had remembered Aryan again.

 One of his men walked to him with a black suit case in his hands and then they both walked downstairs together.

The rest of his men were standing in the living room, “Aryan had called for a fight, he has Mrs Bertram with him and now we are going to him" he said

“Where would be our first destination?" Rowan asked him.

" The Maynard's Mansion” he replied with a side smile.

          Aryan sat on a small chair before Mrs Bertram. He had got her tied around a chair and had some of his men and dad in the dark room.

The rest of his men were guarding the mansion.

“I really see you have a death wish" Mrs Bertram said to him.

“We'll see who's got a death wish" he smirked and she rolled her eyes at him.

Her hands were tied to the back of the seat.

How did she get here?

Mrs Bertram was heading to the mansion to surprise Erica with few dresses she bought made for her until one of Aryan's man pulled his car before her and took her with him.

" All I know is you won't leave this place alive, non of you will, not Erica either” he replied and she scoffed.

" How dumb of you to think Aurelio would let his pretty pregnant fiancée to come over, you don't even know who you're messing with. I am Mrs Bertram” she said in her thought.

         Aurelio arrived at the Maynard's Mansion and walked down the car as he made his way into the building. He saw his dad and grandpa were in the living room playing a game together.

" Young man, what's up?“ His dad asked him

" Aryan is with my Mom” he simply replied.

Mr Maynard slammed his hands on the game and looked up " since when?“

" He called to inform me few minutes ago, I need us to leave” he replied

" We really need to end that family today, no more mercy” his dad said as he stood up and took the stick of cigarette out of his mouth.

His grandpa did same, he turned to one of his men and snapped his fingers at him.

He came back minutes later with a suitcase " He wanted me to come over with Erica” Aurelio said as the suitcase went open by his dad.

" Never gonna happen” his grandpa replied and then Aurelio walked to the suitcase to see several hand guns were inside.

“He wants me to come alone too" he added

" We will have to use a silent pistol in this case, and I know just what to do” his grandpa replied.

The guns were passed around to everyone, not just gun but other weapons.

" I personally will kill his father” Mr Maynard said as he kept his gun inside his pocket.

" Aryan is mine” Aurelio continued.

  

         Minutes later.

Mrs Bertram was still tied around the seat, she turned around stylishly to see if she had eyes on her and there wasn't any at all.

" Dummies” she thought and stylishly reached for her back pocket.

She kept a lighter in one of them when she noticed they were gonna take her.

Aryan had been pacing around the room impatiently, just then he got a phone call.

“He's here" the voice said

“Alone?" He replied

“Yes boss"
