When Alex arrived at the Villa, he immediately parked the car and jumped out. He ran into the house, looking through all the rooms. Zac followed him in but split and went to look out the back door. Zac stepped through the broken glass and outside looking around. Not finding anything, he went back inside to meet up with Alex.
Alex stood in the guest room looking into the closet, where Kaia would have been. He frowned with a confused yet angry look on his face. Zac walked up the stairs and down the hall. He looked up seeing the bullet hole in the ceiling then turned to see Alex. He tilted his head walking beside him."What's wrong?" He asked sternly. Alex looked at him," Her phone's not here."

It was dark and cluttered, Kaia could barely move around. Mostly because of the clutter but also because her hands were tied together. Kaia looked around the best that she could, taking a deep breath. She was never great with tight places, and now she just so happened to be trapped in someone's trunk. Her breathing started to become shaky. Biting her lip, Kaia began to kick the sides and roof of the trunk, "Let me out!!! I can't breath!" She screamed loudly.
Kaia kept kicking, her voice fading out as she was trying to control her breathing. Kaia went to scream again, but the car stopped. Kaia blinked and shifted the best that she could. When the trunk door opened, she kicked roughly making contact with one of the men. The male was a bit scrawny, so he stumbled back a bit. The other male had more muscle and looked a bit scarier.
The bigger male grabbed Kaia's foot before swiftly placing a sack over her head. Kaia tried to fight it, but his grip didn't let up. Soon she was up walking. Where to? She didn't know.
Kaia listened carefully, trying to use her other senses since she didn't have her sight at the moment. She heard a door opening. "Watch your step," One of the males called out before holding her arm to help her walk up a small thing of steps. Kaia followed the instructions, stepping slowly until they made it through another door.
The men grabbed her shoulders telling her to stay put. " I told you not to be rash!" A voice rumbled out. The deep voice made Kaia flinch a bit. The voice sounded familiar, but not from recent years. She hadn't heard that voice in ages.
The sack finally lifted from her head, and she squinted her eyes a few times to focus them. She looked around the room, and her eyes stopped on a particular person. "Mr. Castello..." She breathed out lightly. Did he know?
Peter Castello, Also known as the number one mob boss in the UK stood before Kaia. He was well into his sixties but looked as fit as a thirty-year-old. He had slick black hair and brown eyes. Castello's eyes widened with his smirk as he looked at Kaia. "So you know who I am?" He asked, crossing his arms.
Kaia blinked nodding lightly, "Yes, everyone know's who you are." Castello chuckled and walked up untying Kaia's hands. "No, the other part." He said, patting her hands gently. Kaia took a moment then pulled her hands away slowly. She looked down lightly nodding, "I just found out, but yes. I know you're my biological father."
Castello looked at her and put his hand on his chin. "Five years ago, your mother came to me in secret to tell me about you. Though, at the time she told me that you died as well. I looked into your background and a few of your friends. Imagine my surprise when I found out that my son Todd was looking into stuff about your family. "He said, motioning her to follow him.
Kaia was caught off guard a bit as she listened, "Wait! Todd! Like Hacker Todd?!?! He's your son?" she couldn't even hide the astonishment in her voice. Castello chuckled, nodding, "Yes, I always told him that was a bad habit, but he's really good at it." He explained as they walked down a hallway. Kaia stopped for a second," Can I call my husband? Because of those two, he probably thinks I'm dead."
Castello looked at the two goons and snapped his fingers. The scrawny male held out her phone."Sorry," He apologized scratching the back of his short brown hair. Kaia grabbed her cellphone with a perplexed look. She then looked at Castello before moving to the side pressing Alex's number.
Kaia didn't have to wait long. Alex picked up right away, "Kaia!" Kaia cleared her throat. "Alex! Hey, I'm ok." She said picking up part of Castello scolding the two goons. Alex blinked, holding the phone tighter. "Kaia, where are you?" He asked, looking at Zac.
Kaia took a breath," It was Castello. He's my biological father." She said it as if it was natural. Castello stood in the corner ready to completely cut ties with the two goons. Kaia blinked, "Sorry Alex, I'll explain later." She quickly hung up walking over. "Hey! I have an Idea. It's not easy breaking into the area that the villa is in. Instead of getting rid of the two, let me take them. They can be bodyguards; I do still have people after me, and they might come for Alexa too."She explained.
Castello smirked and nodded, "Great Idea! Ivan and Jim, you are now bodyguards. Also, take Tanner and Larry." He looked at the two goons. "You are also going to fix everything you broke or messed up."
