AriannaThe ice-cold water permeated my bones, causing a shudder, bringing me back to the horrible moment. I had lost consciousness and didn't even know when. I thought it was after the bastard put out the fifth cigarette on the sole of my foot, which were already raw flesh, making it hell to put weight on them. So, my already collapsed brain had to decide what kind of pain it preferred: supporting the weight of my body on my shattered feet or letting myself drop and having my already nearly dislocated shoulders hold me up.There was no correct decision; both options were shit, so I alternated between one and the other, repeating every second that I must resist, that my baby depended on me, although I had no damn idea how I was going to get out of here.The Russian gripped my face, squeezing my cheeks too hard between his fingers, hurting my already cracked lips even more."Look at me!" he ordered. "Don't pass out again. I want you conscious. You're useless to me asleep.""I'm sorry,"

EnzoMy reddened eyes cannot turn away from the image on the phone—her unconscious body hanging from the hook as if she were an animal. Seeing her delicate, creamy skin bruised turns my stomach, and I have to contain the urge to vomit. I zoom in on the photo and slide my finger over her lips, feeling my blood boil when I see her blood spilled. My hands tremble, and impotence collides with rage and desperation in my throat."Stop torturing yourself looking at that," says Antonio, who arrives behind me and places a hand on my shoulder. "We're going to find her, Enzo. I promise we're going to find her."I turn around to face him, feeling like a caged animal."And in the meantime, what? I sit here while she is God knows where, enduring—" The words get stuck in my throat because I'm incapable of even pronouncing it. "I can't, Antonio. I can't stay here."I try to leave, but he intercepts me, making my anger increase."Calm down, please. We won't achieve anything like this!"I push him hard

Enzo"You are too blinded. You'll kill her prematurely. Let Mario handle it. The system guys already have some locations. Come on, let's take a breath. You need to be sane for them.”"Them."His use of the plural stirs too many things in me, and I finally yield. I get to my feet, and Mario is already beside me."Do it well," I order. "You have my damn life in your hands," I confess, allowing myself to be vulnerable in front of him for a moment."I will, sir. I learned from the best," he verbalizes what I already thought.I nod, and I don't know if it's because the whole situation has me stunned, but I approach him and dare to give him one more vote of confidence."She's pregnant," I whisper so only he hears, and I feel as if the words both burn and relieve me.He looks into my eyes, and I see surprise in his, and then understanding."I understand. Leave it in my hands. We will find them."Antonio grabs my arm and forces me to walk. Along with Ilaria, he leads me back to my office and

EnzoAntonio reaches my side, stepping over the pile of fallen bodies, and anguish is reflected on his face when he notices the blood soaking my shirt."I have to get you out of here," he declares, alarmed."No, I'm going for her," I reply sharply, continuing toward the last door with him behind me.When I open it, everything explodes again—the desperation, the rage, but also the relief and the hope. I run toward her and fall to my knees on the filthy mattress where she is lying. The heart I thought I had already buried wakes up, racing like never before, but at the same time, it breaks seeing her battered body, her wounded hands, the dried blood on her mouth.I take her unconscious body and pull it to my chest, clinging to her like I’ve never clung to anything in my life. Her heart beating against mine tells me she is still here, that she is still with me, but I fear it won’t be for long."Wake up, cara," I plead as I kiss her hair like a desperate madman.
