Sofia’s pov It was obvious now that Ryan is definitely more than a bodyguard. How he had managed to fool even Luca is still weird to me. With that thought in mind, I felt my chest start to expand from the thought of Luca and I tried to imagine what he’s currently doing, and now he’s faring in my absence. With a sigh, I shoved the covers off my body and slid out the bed, stretching a little to get the knots out of my joints. It’s almost three full days since I’ve been kidnapped and somehow, I had a feeling a lot of people is already aware of it.Ryan leaves the house every here and there, and I wondered if he’s still working beside Luca right now like the bodyguard Luca knows him as, if he’s currently pretending to not know where I am and is joining in searching for me with the rest of Luca team meanwhile he had kidnapped and locked away in here.That thought made anger bubble in my stomach but I knew there was nothing I could do to help my situation. Ryan had said I was lite

Luca’s pov My head was still reeling from disbelief as I entered the house and shut the door behind me. James had felt as flabbergasted as myself the moment I relayed the most important of the dinner to him. I pulled off my time as soon as I entered the room, and then I splashed some water on my face. The past few days has felt like pure torture to me. When Sofia had left the house from anger, at least I had known where she had been throughout those moments. This time felt complete, it kept feeling like I was gonna stop breathing after a few moments due to how restless I was. After the drink I chugged in at dinner, I didn’t feel like drinking any more tonight any longer.After changing, I alighted the stairs and was heading towards my office when Armani arrived from the kitchen with a drink in his hand. It didn’t look like he had been getting enough sleep from how swollen his eyes looked. We stared at each other silently till he closed the distance between us and tugged me into a hu

Sofia’s pov I could barely drag in a deep breath without my chest rattling from pain. It must have been over three days with me not getting a wink of sleep. Somehow, I still found myself wondering how tears are still able to slide out of my eyes. It felt like I had cried out every damn teardrop in me, but still, the tears still kept on falling.My wrist hurt from the amount of hours it spent being tied up, and every inch of my body felt like it was on fire from too much pain. “Luca is such a bastard, such an undeserving one which I can’t wait to put a bullet into.” Ryan had muttered with so much venom while littering kissed the bruises over my arms.As he kept going on and on, I wondered how he had managed to hide the fact that he hated Luca for over a year while diligently following all his orders.“Did you know that at first, I wanted to take your life?” He asked one night out of nowhere, jolting me out of the sleep I had begun to fall into. It felt like he had brought that topic

Luca’s pov The first thing I wanted to do as soon as our car pulled up in the location Ryan’s own partner had given us, and I had seen Ryan holding Sofia who was on the ground, immense anger had engulfed me that I wanted to do nothing but to step out and put a bullet into the bastard, but James reminded me about not ducking anything up, which was enough to get me into thinking rationally once again.One tiny move and we’d have driven right into the trap which the bastard had set for us, all thanks to Angelo.I had wanted to leave Angelo out of this because I know Sofia wouldn’t ever want to burden him with something like this, even though I was sure he’d have definitely gotten wind of her disappearance. Angelo had been the one to come to me, informing that he wanted to help me find his sister. There hasn’t been any room for me to reject his offer, not that I’d have even dreamt of doing that because I had needed all the assistance I could get. Letting Angelo into the team helped us o

Sofia’s pov ‘Was this how it feels to float?’I asked myself over and over again, the more time I spent in that same unending loophole. It felt like I was stuck in a fluffy space, but instead of sinking, I remained afloat.Muffled voice could be heard coming from multiple sides at once but I couldn’t make any word out, neither could I tell each voice apart from the other.I limbs literally felt nonexistent because I couldn’t wait use of them no matter how much I tried. It’s almost weird how it’s pitch dark in this fluffy space, preventing me from making anything out.Or perhaps, I was the one who had my eyes closed throughout, I realized when I discovered that I could feel my eyelids twitch a little. I tried to get my eyes open after that, but ended up giving up after trying over and over again to no avail. I drifted straight into an unconscious state after that.When I came to once again, I felt warm fingers around mine. The fingers felt familiar in a way, and with everyth
