**** HARRISON P. O. V ****

We all started looking for Gracie everywhere, but we couldn’t find her. I got so mad because I already thought something bad might happen.

But I didn’t say anything, and I hate myself for it now. When Jason got mad, he kept breaking and punching things, so I went up to him.

I asked him, “Can you please stop breaking things so we can sit down and think?” He gave me an angry look.

He stood up and asked, “Don’t even try to talk to me! Where did you take her?” Ryan tried to calm him down.

“Are you crazy? Do you really think I would put the life of Melina, my best friend, in danger? What would I get out of it?” I asked indignantly.

“You got her, and I know you’re jealous and want to steal her from me,” he said, making me even more angry.

Ryan said, “Enough! Enough of this childish play,” and Jason and I looked at each other with angry breaths coming out of our mouths.

“These people are clean, so we should let them go,” I said. Ryan looked at the people with narrowed eyes.

“Or maybe they’re not,” he said, pulling the two guys who started the fight out of the group.

He asked them, “I thought you had a fight. Why are you standing so close?” They swallowed hard.

“Or maybe they didn’t fight at all,” Jason said as he stood up.

I told them, “It was all a distraction,” and as I got closer, I saw them swallow hard.

Ryan asked you in a cold way, “Who sent you?”

“No one. He stepped on my leg, and I told him to apologize. Then he went crazy.” One of them swung, and Jason hit him in the face, making him fall over.

“Do you think I’m here to make fun of you?” he asked angrily. Then I let the rest of the people go.

Ryan rolled up his shirt sleeve and asked, “Who else is here with you?”

“No one,” they said. “Why don’t you believe us?” Jason laughed.

“Because we’ve been doing this for longer than you can imagine, so we’re not newbies,” he said, and I sighed.

I was getting really angry, but I didn’t do anything about it. They are the best at torturing people, so I like to watch them make them say it.

When my phone started to buzz, I picked it up and saw that Nina was calling.

# Hey turns his back on the brothers

# Harrison is not strong

# Nina are you okay???

# I’m not Harrison, no. I feel weak and need you here.

# What about Dave, Nina? He’s not here.

# I’m not familiar with Harrison. You should go home right now.

Nina, I need you to be strong for me. I’m stuck between two things right now, and I need to figure it out.

# Does that matter more than me?

# No Ann. Don’t think like that, Gracie. At the party, someone took her away.

# Harrison’s brothers will make sure that happens. But Harrison, I’m the only one here. I’m crying

Nina, my best friend is Melina. I just can’t leave her now.

# You told me that you cared more about me. And now, when you need me the most, you can’t come to me?

# Nina. Please, I promise I’ll get there as soon as I can, all right? Once I figure out what’s going on and these jerks tell us where Gracie is, I’ll be happy.

# Fine. You can do what you want.

She put the phone down, and I sighed and closed my eyes.

“I’m sorry, Nina, but I have to help Melina,” I told them as I walked back to the brothers and saw how busy they were. Men were being abused.

They had this kind of clip, and the edges at the mouth were sharp and rough. They moved it to one of the guy’s toes and pressed on it, making him scream loudly in pain.

I saw blood pouring out of his legs, which made me angry, so I shut my eyes.

I looked at Ryan, who was doing the torturing, and saw that he didn’t seem to care that the man was in pain.

I thought, “You should really be afraid of the Emerson brothers.”

He yelled, “I will talk! I will talk!” and Ryan took the clip off his leg.

“Talk.” He said.

“It was Dave. Our boss told us to get people’s attention so we could find Melina,” he said, and my eyes grew wide.

Jason asked in confusion, “Who is Dave?” I got angry and walked up to the guy and lifted him up through his shirt.

I was angry and asked, “What are you talking about? Why would he want Gracie?”

“I don’t know! I don’t know! He didn’t tell us!” “I don’t know! I don’t know! He didn’t tell us! But I saw him talking to a woman after the meeting, and she shouldn’t,” he said, and I dropped him.

“Nina.” I said to myself.

“Nina? You mean the Nina I killed her mother?” Jason asked and I looked at him.

I said, “Yes, Nina, you killed her mother.”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“It looks like she was supposed to see her mother soon after all,” he said, and I looked at the guys again, now fully understanding what she was trying to prove with the call.

I asked, “Where are they?”

**** NINA P. O. V ****

Dave told me, “I told you, Nina. I told you that he still loves her. You cried to him on the phone, but he still stood by her,” and I started to cry.

“You know, I thought I finally had his love once, but I was wrong. I didn’t. I was just a distraction,” I said through tears, and Dave gave me a big hug.

He told Nina, “Don’t worry, I’ll make things right, I promise.”

“What should we do about Melina now?” I asked looking at him.

“I’ve shown you what you need to know, and I don’t think the brothers will find us soon. They can’t know where we are, so we’ll keep Gracie here for a few days. The Emerson Brother hasn’t paid for killing your mother, which Gracie did.

He told me, “So this is a fight against two people. Melina is a bargaining chip, and this is what you don’t know.” I looked at him eagerly.

“Tell me.” I Said.

“Melina is pregnant.” He said.

I was shocked. “What? She’s pregnant? How did that happen?”

“Come on, you know how Jason is with women. But that’s not the point now; the point is that she’s a bargaining chip for us.”

He said, “If they all do something stupid, they will never see her or the baby again. I shook my head.”

Please don’t kill her and the baby. The plan was just to see if he cared about me as much as he said he did.

“Now you bring in a death sentence? No, Dave. We won’t touch her. She’ll soon be a mother, which is every woman’s dream.”

“Fine we had our fight, and I almost got her kidnapped in the past and that remains the past. I was angry at her but when I noticed it was people around her that brought her bad luck, I stopped blaming her.”

“She didn’t force Harrison to love her. In fact, she told him to come to me because she was clear that she loved Jason. That day, she begged Jason to let my mother go, but he still killed her.”

“That lady is innocent. She and her baby shouldn’t be caught up in this.” I said.

“Are you saying this because she is pregnant?” He asked

“I am saying this because I shouldn’t have let you go on with this plan in the first place. We are letting her go, and we are running for our dear lives because the brothers won’t take it easy with us when they find out it’s us. Especially Harrison .” I said and he smriked.

“Listen little sister. No one is releasing her okay? And you can’t stop me.” He said.

“Dave do you have any other reason for this too?” I said and he sighed.

“The Emerson Brothers hurt you and me, and I’m going to get back at them,” he said as he walked out of the room and locked the door behind him.

“Open the door, Dave!” I yelled as I slammed the door.
