Sexy, Seductive, and Sultry

“I’ve noticed some of our files have been touched, especially those in the basement… I’m sending them to the boys for fingerprints” Collin explained.

“Hmm… has anybody entered this house apart from the cleaners and lawyers? I need them to start shredding the papers, one evidence about tax evasion and laundering could ship everybody’s ass to jail” Mario warned.

“Do you wish to interfere in the ongoing beef?”

“No, just let them be, I want you to focus on moving the rest of the money out, I’ll be granting bail to a few criminals, use them in exporting the money” Mario instructed.

“Sir, a few guys have gone missing, mostly part of those whom we used for the last operation…” A guard disclosed with fear.

“Get their families or closest relatives” Collin ordered.

“That’s the problem, we can’t find anybody…”

“This has to do with Ann, I’m tired of her surprises, capture her personal assistant, kill her immediately!” Mario ordered and the guards filed out.

“Still no news about Isabelle?”

“No but Annabella has left the house, she chose Isabelle over her mother and one of the spies was killed, the others are very careful” Collin briefed.

“Focus on finding Isabelle. I want new guards for some operations, it’s about to get bloody… our first target would the ministers, I want 3 ministers to get executed and the three guards should get caught, they should undergo torture before confessing that Ann was the one who sent them, let them get jailed and we’ll swap them with some dummy from the streets” Mario suggested.

“Lilian wants to talk to you, she’s outside”

“Tell her I’m busy.. I don’t not have time to waste on meaningless talks” Mario shrugged and the door burst open, revealing Lilian who had a smirk on her face.

“Nice to see you again, I’ve missed you so much” Lilian confessed, kissing his cheeks sloppily and he frowned.

“What do you want?” He demanded.

“Don’t give me that look, don’t you miss me? If you don’t, I do that’s why I’m here to see you” She replied, sitting on his lap.

“Tell me why you’re here or my guards will throw you out!” He thundered.

“Geez, you’re edgy, but you know me too well, I’m here to strike a deal with you, I know you want Isabelle and I can’t help you get her..”

“That’s right, the same way you helped me the last time..” Mario scoffed.

“It wasn’t my fault you guys did a terrible job, I helped you get Thomas but your boys were foolish enough to let him go” She replied.

“Leave, I don’t have time for your silly acts, I have a lot on my plate…”

“I know where Isabelle is..” She dropped and he raised his head up, she smiled, knowing she had his full attention already.

“What did you say?”

“I can take you to Isabelle now” She replied smiling.

“How is that possible?” Mario demanded, giving her his full attention and she sat on the chair, twirling and watching his anxiety grow.

“I put a tracker on Elena, I knew about the last place she was at before disappearing… I sent someone to check out the place and guess what, there’s a house and my spy saw Isabelle there” Lilian replied.

“Give me the location,” Mario demanded.

“No baby, that’s not how things work… you give me something else in exchange for this vital information…”

“Tell me where she is now!” Mario raged, holding her neck and she smiled, her eyes popping out and her breathing paced.

“I’d rather die than tell you where she is” She giggled and he threw her on the ground roughly.

“What do you want?”

“That should have been your first question… I want $30 million wired into my account now, I’ll be very honest, Ann wants me to work for her, she’s paying me so much money that I don’t have to work again but I considered helping you my old time pal, give me a few days and I’ll get Ann’s full plan for you… you should be grateful to have someone like me” Lilian replied and Mario pondered over it.

“Why should I trust you?” Mario inquired.

“I came to you, after telling you her location, if you don’t find her then come after me and kill me” She replied seriously and Mario beckoned to a guard.

Her account details were collected and he instructed them to make the transfer. Immediately her phone beeped, she smiled.

“The location?”

“Chill baby boy, it’s northway, towards the 29. Express.. that place is covered with trees but you need to go inside on foot, at the middle, you’ll find a mansion that’s where she lives, good luck getting her” Lilian bade and cat walked out.

“I’ve given her the address too, but I’m wondering what if Ann gets there first?” Zena inquired, as Lilian entered the car.

“You see my dearest, before Ann takes them away, Mario would arrive and they would collide, it’ll become a game of survival of the fittest… nobody would link it to me as the losers would all be dead” Lilian laughed and Zena drove off.

Isabelle was inside, playing a game with Alessandro and Annabella, they heard a scream and different noises.

Fear gripped them and Alessandro decided to go check, telling them not to panic. He walked down slowly and was surprised to see masked men.

Thomas, Brianna and Darrell were on their knees, facing the ground as they trembled…

A guard saw him and dragged him down roughly, making him join them.

Two more guards went upstairs and came down with Isabelle and Annabella who were shaking fearfully.

“Take them to the van” The leader ordered and after tying their hands, they marched out.

They were at the gate when another set of masked guards walked inside, firing gunshots, the first set began shooting, attacking the new arrivals.

They all stood at the back, watching as they fought and killed each other, gunshots fired in different directions and a loud shout erupted when a bullet touched Annabella.

She screamed, tears in her eyes as pain seized her body.

The fight settled and the first arrivals were seen on the floor, laying dead.

They were shoved into a black van. Isabelle and Annabella together while the rest were in another van.

Immediately the van drove inside the large house, nurses ran out, holding stretchers as they took the unconscious Annabella inside.

Isabelle was reluctant to part with her but after being kicked aside, she became powerless.

They didn’t have time to access their environment as four heavily armed guards led them inside.

They were all led to a dark room, their legs tied and arms tied behind their backs.

“What is happening?” Darrell mumbled and Brianna broke into tears, making Isabelle emotional.

“I’m confused… we were bound by one group and kidnapped by another, this is all confusing” Thomas mumbled, trying to wobble towards Brianna.

“So many things are going on right now,” Alessandro muttered.

“It’s all because of me, I wish I wasn’t filled with bad luck” Isabelle muttered and Alessandro sighed.

“This has nothing to do with you, I’m sure we’ll be fine, someone would rescue us” Alessandro comforted.

“Who? Is it my father who doesn’t give a fuck about me? Ann, who wants me dead? Darrell, our hero who’s here with us, my friends who have all betrayed me or my dead decaying mother?” She demanded hotly.

“This isn’t your fault, try to think positively and we would be okay”

“I can’t imagine the pain Annabella is going through now, poor little girl, her peers are having fun and the best time of her life but she’s on a stretcher, battling for her life… if anything happens to her, I’ll never forgive myself” Isabelle vowed.

“I’m sure she will get treated, she’ll be fine,” Brianna added.

“Who exactly is our captor? How did anyone find out our location?” Darrell wondered.

“It’s Elena, she must have betrayed us…” Isabelle claimed.

“It can’t be, I have two men watching her… her phone is bugged, I’m aware of even her slightest movements” Darrell retorted.

“Then who? Not even my family knows where I’ve been? We have no neighbors and no one goes out” Brianna noted.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Whosoever it is must be prepared for war if anything happens to Annabella” Isabelle muttered, resting her aching head on the wall.

Alessandro laid his head on the wall while Brianna and Thomas were sprawled on the floor.

Darrell had his head between his knees, pondering on how to contact his men.

One thing he was sure of was that there were no jammers and tracking him wouldn’t be hard but how would his men know he’s missing.

“Does anyone have a phone?” Darrell whispered and they shook their heads negatively.

“Stop trying, there’s no hope again” Isabelle muttered tiredly, her body felt sore and her wrist were beginning to ache.

“Even if we manage to leave this room, can’t you see the hundreds of guards stationed outside? How do we get out of this large house without getting lost or stepping in the wrong room? It’ll take a miracle for us to leave this place” Isabelle wept.

“If I could communicate with my boys, they would be here in no time…”

“Just forget it, how do you intend to get a phone? Our legs and hands are bound even if you saw a phone you would be able to use it… I think it’s high time we accepted our fate, I’m so sorry for dragging y’all into my messy life, if I had known, I wouldn’t have gotten you involved” Isabelle apologized.

“Who exactly is our captor? What’s our offense?” Alessandro whispered loudly and the door flung open, a figure standing in the dark hallway.

Heels clicked as a feminine figure walked inside.

“I am your captor…”
