Louise's POV.
I slowly fluttered my heavy eyelashes and tried opening them. I felt like I wasn't in control of my body.
Ugh... Drums are being played in my head.
A calm place, so silent.
And the smell, the smell of antiseptics.
I figured I was in the hospital as I took in the drip attached to my hand and the hospital gown on my body.
How the hell did I get here? The last thing I remember was going to change in a bathroom and the rest are blanks.
My legs were shaking as I tried to walk towards the door. The door suddenly opened and a man came.
I think I have been kidnapped.
"Miss, you have to get back in bed."
"Please I want to go home, I am much better.…...
"...Not until you answer all my questions."
My eyes opened wide as Alejandro interrupted me.
"I think you need to seat down because I have a lot of questions for you, mi belleze de ojos verdes." My eyes is focused on him. His face is devoid of any emotion as usual but his eyes give him away.
I don't know how, but I could see the anger in his eyes and it was directed at me.
I felt a tingling feeling in my hand from where he held and assisted me back to the bed.
The other man who had moved to the rear end of the room came forward and handed Alejandro a file.
***********************
Silence reigned as I looked through the papers. He had really gone through the trouble of doing a background check on me.
There is so many papers and pictures all pointing to my connection to James Mcgyver.
I have to tell my own version of the truth without revealing too much of myself.
"You obviously know the answers I need so without wasting both of our times, get straight to the point," He finally queried.
So I told him of my family's relationship with Mr. James Mcgyver, his stalking, the attempted kidnap, the gifts and messages.
"Now I want to ask something, why are so you so concerned with James." I asked.
I know he has more questions to ask. I need to divert his attention to something else.
"Not that it's any of your business but I intend to buy his hotel in Senoia. I suspected some shady business so I am investigating." He replied with his usual cold demeanor.
"But what I am really trying to grasp is why he would try to kidnap you in cooperation with a mafia." He continues.
Okay that's new. I never knew.
"I don't have an answer to that, but I want you to help me find out. We could both help ourselves. You can help me find out why they want me while I try to find out Mr Mcgyver's shady business." I need to be able to gain his trust so He can help me.
"Hmmmn..... How do you plan on doing that. I don't think you got the part where I saved you twice from being kidnapped."
My mind couldn't think straight as he had his face so close to mine. Now I could see his brown eyes well which had specks of gold in them.
"Do you even know where you were found this time!"
I shook my head careful not to hit or move closer to him. His cologne wafted to my nose, chocolates mixed with apples.
"You were found in a trafficking den. Do you still think it's wise for you to try anything or you just want to be plain stupid." With that he rose up and left.
"Miss, you are to remain here till tomorrow." The other man, Carl spoke up before he also left.
The clock read 10: 45pm. I wonder how long it has been. A nurse came in with a tray containing medicines and food which she gave to me.
I wonder if she will talk to me. Well there's no harm in trying.
"....Errrrrm... Please how long have I been here"
She smiled and answered," Well it has been 2 days since you were brought in unconscious along with some other girls. You had inhaled a large dosage of Rohypnol."
Wait, did she just say other girls. That means Alejandro was telling the truth.
"Thank you."
"You are welcome, now you need to rest." She said after administering the drugs.
Once more I am left to my thoughts. I have many unanswered questions.
The last thing I remember from the party was serving drinks to guests and any I try too hard I get an headache.
Why did I end up in a trafficking den.
What's James involvement in all of this
Why does Alejandro always end up saving me.
***********************
A nurse is fixing my drip when I open my eyes. She leaves as soon as she administers my meds.
4:25pm.
I am so bored. I wonder what Missy would be thinking as it is very unlike me to be absent for 2 days.
1, 2, 3,4,5,6...... I count as the fluid drips its last drops. I hear approaching footsteps and...
The door opens as Carl makes his way in.
"Miss we will be ready to leave in 20 minutes so get ready." He drops a bag beside me and leaves.
He didn't even say where we are going. The bag contains clothes and underwear. I quietly dress up and wait.
***Unknown POV***
"Boss, there's a problem. The warehouse was ransacked, all the girls are missing while our men are dead."
A gun shot is fired and the man drops dead.
The house is silent as all the other men look at their boss, fear is evident in their faces.
"Can anybody explain to me what happened?" His voice thundered.
"I want answers unless you all want to next."
The men all scamper out of the room.
