" Leo, can you please go and check on your sister?" I heard mom ask as I was sitting in the living room checking the shipment of weapons, slaves and drugs that came yesterday.

" sure mom I will go and check on her " I replied as I looked at her and kept the laptop down on the table with the files and went upstairs towards Alessandro and Kate's room.

I looked at the door and saw it was open. What the hell who opened it. I slowly went inside hoping Kate was inside and not roaming around.

I went inside and to my surprise and relief found her laying on the bed underneath the blankets. I couldn't even see her face.

I slowly approached her and lifted the blankets but to my shock and worry it wasn't her. It was one of the maids in Kate's clothing and wearing her jewellery.

I pulled her up by the hair and slapped her with my other hand causing her to wake up with a jolt.

" You bitch where is my sister, why the fuck are you in her room " I yelled at her as I slapped her again.

" S-sir I ca-came to gi-ve ma-ma'am he-her lu-lunch a-and sh-she asked m-me to he-help he-her es-escape but I re-refused and wa-was abo-abou to go bu-but som-someone hit me and I fa-fainted" She replied stuttering.

I rushed downstairs and dragged her by the hair with me and told mom to call dad, Sebastian and Valentino while I yelled Francisco, Enrique and Alessandro to come down.

After all of them here I told them how Kate had run away. The bitch got a few more hits before she was thrown in the basement to be dealt with later.

It was a good thing that we already put a tracker inside her. The guards who were guarding outside were immediately shot dead by Valentino and Alessandro for not doing their job properly.

Kate's Pov

Before I can answer him the phone was snatched from me. I looked and saw it was Alessandro and my so-called brothers.

I was horrified to say was an understatement when I saw the phone I held was crushed by Leonardo stomping his foot on it.

Another horrifying scene took place in front of me as I saw the man who helped me was struggling to breathe as Enric had his hand wrapped around the man's throat and had lifted him.

I was about to go help that man but a pair of arms wrapped around my waist stopping me. I elbowed whoever was holding me in the stomach and ran towards Enric and the man he was choking.

The man was clawing at Enric's arm and thrashing around but it didn't affect him nor did he loosen his hold.

I punched Enric's side causing him to turn around and face as he dropped the man who was now almost unconscious.

" Sweetheart come here so we can go home. Do you know how worried we were when We saw you weren't in your room? Be a good girl and we won't harm this bastard as much we are going to".

I heard Sebastian say as he wrapped his arms around my waist and pointed to the man that was now unconscious as Valentino punched him with so much strength in the gut, causing him to blackout.

I tried to elbow him like I did before but his hold was tight, that I couldn't even move a bit. All the while Alessandro was staring at me without an expression on his face.

" Twinny he is right to come on let's go back home. You had enough fun for today. Mom and Dad are so worried about you. " Leonardo said as he came towards me and petted my hair like to calm me down.

As if, how can I even calm down when they almost killed the guy who helped me.

" look, guys, we all know you can't keep me and my friends locked up forever. Please try to understand I can't and won't be happy this way. Please let me and my friends go " I begged them hoping they would understand, not that I expected much from them.

When none of them spoke anything I once again pleaded " Guys you all claim to love me right? Then if you all love me you all obviously want me to be happy. My happiness is not here with you all. Please guys"

All of them starting chuckling evilly. As pathetic it was I was scared. I could feel goosebumps on my skin as a shiver of horror went down my spine. My heart was beating fast. At this rate, I was going to have a panic attack if I didn't calm down.

" Flower you are right we love you a lot and we want you to be happy but we want you to happy with us. We do love your little games but you can't always keep doing this you know. In a few days, you are going to get married. Now let's go" Francisco said, his tone was like he was scolding a toddler who was misbehaving. It was really creepy.

" Baby I am done with your tantrums," Alessandro said as he came marched towards me and Sebastian. He took me out of Sebastian's hold and picked me up in bridal style.

I kept clawing and scratching at his arms and face and he stopped for a moment and took out a syringe from his pocket. The moment I and I felt a harsh prick on my shoulder as I felt everything around me getting blurry. I tried to fight it but eventually, I blacked out as I was carried away.
