⚠️This chapter will contain abuse and violence.

Not wanting to draw to much attention, Henry was quick to inject a needle into Emilia, she was knocked unconscious in seconds.

She was talking now and he did not like that one bit. He would have to change that when they got back.

After getting Lexi from the prison they locked her away in, he vowed to make the family pay for locking Lexi away and letting Emilia do whatever she wants. That would stop today.

Unfortunately the family was powerful and they couldn't gain access to an actual house so they were using a warehouse for their schemes and the little house nearby to live in whilst everything died down and they could go back to America.

He drove in silence with a sickening grin on his face. He couldn't wait to get back.

meanwhile

The guards were panicking but it was short lived as Damon arrived.

He saw the guards clustered together they were trying to track the car.

"What's going on" Damon asked having a bad feeling about it all

"A car same make as yours and fake number plates identical to yours, Emilia got in the car we thought nothing of it until you rang and told us you were going to be late" one of the guards explained.

Now many people had seen Damon angry, but right now he was worse than his anger towards Lexi.

He didn't care that they were in public, he grabbed the man by the neck pinning him to the wall, choking him. "You were here to protect her and you let her get kidnapped" he snapped.

"Sir you told us not to interact unless she was in danger, we saw the number plates were identical to yours so we let her go" another guard tried.

Damon tightened his grip making the man start to gasp for air whilst coughing. "And yet when you realised she was in danger you stood around doing nothing" he said.

"We shot at the car and we are tracking it sir" a third guard said.

"And did you find anything" Damon asked.

"Not yet"

Damon gave the man's neck a harsh squeeze before letting go of him.

"Find me something " he said harshly, knowing they could be anywhere by now.

He stalked back to his car. He would find her. He had too.

He quickly sent a message on the group chat telling the family to get to the warehouse straight away. He wasn't looking forward to telling them especially his dad.

It was a conversation best for on person.

He drove way beyond the speed limit but he didn't care.

An obvious thing to do would be to call her but he decided not too because he realized if she had her phone turned on and if it wasn't on silent, they wouldnt let her anwser it and they would most likely throw it out of a window.

It would be best to wait till he got to the warehouse so he could get his best hackers on the case to trace her phone.

He knew tracking the car was probably pointless by now, the guards were on that now but he figured they would have switched the number plates by now.

He arrived at the warehouse, when he walked in everyone cowered away, they saw their boss was in a deadly mood. They knew talking to him right now was a death wish.

Damon went straight to the computer area.

The computer team cowered at his presence, a few even whimpered.

"I want you to track a phone, this is the number. I also want you to hack into the street cameras" he said then proceeded to give them the phone number, he also gave them additional details like the mobile company and anything else he could think off. And then he gave them an address as to where to start looking.

His family entered just as he turned around. They knew something was wrong, Damon would never summon all of them here together.

They went to one of the offices to talk in private.

"Where is Emilia, you said you were picking her up" Dante asked. He knew she was out but Emilia had chosen for him to not know it was a date.

"I was late, a car matching mine with the exact same number plates came, Emilia got in" Damon admitted.

The room was silent. No one dared say anything.

Alesandro was processing this information. His daughter had been taken yet again and he was pissed.

"You have her guards, you said they were the best, clearly they weren't. My daughter has been kidnapped and your pathetic guards couldn't even stop them" Alesandro finally snapped.

"They are tracking the car"

"That's not good enough. I passed over the Mafia to you thinking you had it handled. You know I dont get involved much anymore. I left it up to you and you end up telling me she's been kidnapped!?"

"I'm sorry father, they will pay for it with their lives when I catch them"

"I'll be taking over, clearly you still need to get your men in line if they can't follow a simple instruction" Alesandro snapped, the ex mafia boss persona coming out.

"Absolutely not. I want to be the one to end their lives. I will find my sister " Damon argued. He didn't appreciate his father's word.

"Boys we need all your help. Matteo and Dante go to the streets find out what people know, someone will know something. Mason use your contacts see if you can find out anything then coordinate with the tech team, you might be able to find something they can't" Alesandro ordered.

"And Damon you better deal with those pathetic guards but first have all transportation services notified of this. We don't want them leaving" Alesandro continued. His voice laced with venom.

Damon wanted to argue but finding Emilia was more important.

Everyone went about their tasks. Alesandro was overseeing everything whilst making some calls of his own.

Damon was pissed. His sister missing and his dad telling him how terrible he was at his job.

He made the calls, all trains/train stations, busses, airports/planes and other ways of leaving were all on the look out now. They hadn't been told it was a kidnapping as Damon planned to torture them and he didn't want the police getting in the way.

Dante and Matteo were out on the streets asking low life criminals if they knew anything....well asking was putting it nicely.

Damon had an idea and so he called Dante.

Dante was in the middle of asking another petty criminal but when he saw Damon calling he was quick to anwser.

"Do you have something" he quickly asked.

"Not yet but I'll go to the end of the earth to find her" Damon promised. He was young and just a child when she got taken the first time, he was older, smarter and could scare even the devil, he wouldn't loose Emilia again.

"We have nothing either. Why are you calling" Dante said sadly.

"The emails, we know Lexi was writing to Henry, did they say anything " Damon asked as he joined the computer team. He didn't say a word to them, hd opened up his own computer.

"No I've been monitoring it from the beggining and nothing was mentioned" Dante said.

Damon sighed with frustration. He was quick to do his work and soon he had hacked into a few government databased and found out everything about Henry.

"Fuck" he cursed when he saw one name in particular stand out.

Joseph Brookes.

Head of his rival gang.

The man who Damon louthed and for good reason.

The man was Henry's best friend growing up.

"What is it" Dante asked.

"Just keep asking around" Damon said and hung up.

Mason who was across the room listening walked up to him

"Joseph Brookes could be involved, best friends growing up" Damon pointed out.

His anger was increasing by the second. At any point he would explode.

"Shit. Well at least we have a new lead. Everyone look into Joseph Brookes, find out about hide outs anything " Mason said.

(

Damons anger increased so much saw he picked up the cup next to him and threw it at the wall he stormed out of the computer to oom.

Everyone flinched unfortunately one person in particular didn't see him.

"She got into the car herself, it's her own problem, at least she has experience now " the man muttered.

Damons intense glare focused on the man as he continued to mutter insults even calling Emilia stupid.

Damon had him pinned to a wall in seconds " you really are stupid to to dare insult my sister" he warned bringing out his pocket knife.

He decided to let his anger out on the man.

Damon had someone bring him a blade that was so sharp it cut through bone.

Minutes past and the man was barely breathing, he laid on the floor, cuts, bruises, his tongue had been cut out and he was missing his fingers from one hand and his whole right hand. Blood spewed out.

He laughed, an evil, sinical laugh. His hair was a mess and blood stained his clothes, his eyes were dark, there was no life to them. He really did look like a monster.

"Let this be a warning to anyone who fucks up, insults my sister or doesn't get their tasks done" he called so they all heard.

Everyone's eyes widened as Damon cut the man's head off and threw it across the floor in front of the crowd.

The guards would suffer a similar fate soon unless they came up with something to find her.

Whilst her family searched for her, Emilia laid on the ground , bleeding and afraid. How could she have let this happen. The abuse had begun the moment they got back. Henry was smart, he had chosen a secluded area for his fun.

He had a best friend growing up, Joseph. Joseph hated her family but Henry deemed it to much of a risk so didn't inform Joseph of his plans.

Seeing the girl laid beneath him excited Henry, it pleased his sick mind. He bend town and ran his hand over her face before grabbing her by her hair and yanking it so she would look at him "you are going to wish for death by the time I'm done"

"No. You are. When Damon finds me he won't be happy" Emilia somehow found the strength to reply. She wasn't aware of the Mafia yet but she had seen Damon's anger and she knew he would be furious.

"How dare you, you stupid pathetic bitch" he snapped.

He chuckled darkly and reached down pulling her phone out of a pocket. He used her fingers to get the fingerprint needed to unlock her phone. He then took multiple pictures of her and set it as her lockscreen combining the photos into one picture before laughing again.

"No doubt they will track your phone, when they find it thru will see how much I love torturing you" he snapped. His intention was to go put it by a road side.

She looked so hrlpfless and it brought him pleasure to see her like that. He gave her many more kicks .

He eventually stopped when the door opened and Lexi walked in, he didn't want her to be exposed too much to this.

Lexi giggled when she saw "you should burn her entire body or send her back to them in little pieces"

Emilia was shocked at how bad her sister was. She knew it wasn't Alice or Henry. Especially Alice,Alive didn't like her daughter to be physically violent. She never did explain why, but the reason for it was her ex husband. Alesandro Russo, ex mafia boss. She didn't want her wonderful innocent Alexia turning into such a horrid selfish man.

Lexi had become twisted. At first she enjoyed causing her sister pain, then she wanted her sister gone, now all she felt was anger. She had never really physically hurt her, a few slaps here and there, but moving in with her bio father and brothers had her desperate and it made her realize how she enjoyed seeing her sister in pain.

She took out a lighter and walked up to her sister burning a part of her body. The screams made her happy.

Henry pulled her back "leave the bitch for now, we want this to last. We want her to suffer for a long time"

(

Although some might suggest she takes after her father and brothers, this was not the case. Damon was the worst of the worst and yet he would never ever do what she did. Was she worse than Damon? Absolutely not. When Damon was seriously angry, no one was safe. Maybe that was the reason Alesandro took control of the situation, because he knew how dangerous Damon could get. After all he had just tortured and beheaded one of his men for insulting his sister. No one was safe, not until Damon had his little sister in his arms. Not until he had torted Henry and Alice and made them pay. Only then would everything go back to normal. He would not stop now until they were dead.

The only thing stopping him from killing Lexi was their father.

He would get his sister back, that he was certain off.

Everyone knew how protective he was but after everything, he didn't trust her safety to anyone. One of the main reasons was he had been the one to pull her out of the lake, his family didn't even notice, he never spoke it but he still held it against them. If he hadn't have come back, if he had gone to work...

Sure he knew his family would never hurt her, she was safe but was she safe from outside threats... probably not.

The only person he remotely trusted was Mason, mason had been with him, he had an excuse not to have noticed she was in the lake.

The point was no one in their right mind would get in his way at a time like this or it would be the last thing they do.
