Where is She?
Where is She?
I glanced down to see my hands bounded by grey tape. More confused than shocked, I cocked my
head to the side. Is this really happening to me or am I just dreaming?
It didn’t take me long to realize that the same tape that bound my hands together also bound my feet
together. In my shock, my first reaction was to scream and struggle against my restraint. It hurts every
time I try to separate my hands and feet. In the end, I couldn’t free myself and I felt stupid for thinking
that it would be an easy feat to achieve.
Where am I? Where is Hayden?
I had no idea where I was and looking around only confirmed my initial thought. Where is this place?
The place was extremely large and resembled a warehouse of some kind although there wasn’t a lot of
boxes stored there. The warehouse had a high ceiling and was pretty much empty. Whoever brought
me here had dumped me right at the center of the warehouse. It was cold.
I didn’t have a lot of clothes on. More precisely I only have a white robe on on top of my underwear.
How did I get here?
How come I don’t really remember anything? The last thing that I remembered was when I was with
Lucy in the changing room. Then she offered me a glass of water…
Then I didn’t remember anything else, and I somehow ended up here. I thought about it for a while
before I realized that it didn’t matter how I ended up here.
Reality was harsh when it began to sink in. I’m supposed to be getting married to Hayden right now and
if I’m here then that means that the wedding didn’t take place. How long has it been since then? Has
Hayden realized that I’m missing?
Hayden’s probably super angry and worried sick right now if he knew that I’ve gone missing. I need to
get out of here no matter what and find Hayden. How do I get out of here?
My eyes scanned the walls as I tried to find the door to this massive warehouse. To my surprise, for
such a large place, there was only pair of doors. The door was no where near to where I was causing
me to curse from my frustration. How am I supposed to drag my ass over there with my feet and hands
tied together like this.
…
“Going in there is like walking straight to your death!” Luka yelled loudly as he tried to pull on Hayden’s
arm the moment that they both got out of the car.
Luka cursed fluently as he tried to restrain Hayden. It wasn’t like he didn’t suspect the Silva gang of this
foul play but that doesn’t mean that he can just let Hayden waltz in there alone and pretty much
unarmed.
“Let go, old man…” Hayden said coldly.
“We can’t be here!” Luka yelled loudly.
“This is just their public company building similar to the one for Torex. They won’t just shoot and kill us
here,” Hayden replied without a care in the world.
“You don’t know that. You’re not even making sense. I’m not letting you go in there,” Luka stated firmly.
“I don’t want to use force against you,” Hayden said coldly as he pulled his arm roughly away from
Luka’s hold.
“Hayden! You don’t even know if Ethan really took her,” Luka tried to reason as he struggled to keep up
with Hayden.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
It was true that the chances are high and even Luka knew that too. However, one look at Hayden’s face
told him that nothing mattered anymore. If there was even the slimmest chance that she was here or if
she was taken by Silva, Hayden would go in there to get it out of Ethan.
“We’re going to get killed if we step in there…” Luka hissed.
“You don’t have to go in. You can call for back up and wait here,” Hayden replied calmly.
“And what? Let you die all alone and lonely?” Luka asked with a dry laugh.
Although this was Silva’s headquarters, just like that of Torex’s, it was nothing more than a large and
tall office building in the heart of the business district. It was peaceful and quiet inside the office building
because it wasn’t a working day.
“And how are we supposed to get up there? What if he’s not even here?” Luka asked as he looked
around suspiciously.
“He’s here…” Hayden said with certainty as he took out his phone.
…
“Boss, your phone is vibrating…” one of Ethan’s men politely pointed out.
“Huh?” Ethan said lazily as he glanced over to his phone.
He quickly found out that his phone was indeed vibrating but what surprised him the most was the
person who was calling. Apparently, hell must have frozen over for Hayden Torex to be the one to give
him a call first.
“Hello?” Ethan said in a playful tone.
“I’m here,” Hayden stated curtly through the phone.
Something in Hayden’s tone of voice nagged at Ethan’s mind but he wasn’t quite sure what it was.
“Someone will fetch you…” Ethan stated before hanging up.
With a wave of his hand, a few of his men left the room. No words were required for them to know what
Ethan wanted them to do.
Ethan turned around in his chair as his eyes admired the silver fox with green eyes on the wall. The
next head of Torex will soon be in this room. His lips curved into a smirk at the irony of it all. He couldn’t
remember the last time when Hayden was here. It was too long ago…too long…
Ethan could hear loud sounds of commotion outside of his room before the door to the room flew open
with a loud bang and Hayden strode in.
“I tried to stop him,” one of Ethan’s men quickly said as he followed Hayden into the room.
“Step aside,” Ethan said with a wave of his hand and his men quickly obeyed.
“Where is she?!” Hayden yelled as he confronted Ethan.
Ethan blinked rapidly in surprise as he cocked his head innocently to the side.
