SYDNEY'S POV
"Isabella and her mother just got into the Toronto safe house." Luke, my best friend, tells me. I've sent him to take care of my wife and her mother in Toronto as I try to finish this mess once and for all. My wife. Isabella Kings. It still sounds unreal but I fucking love her name. I love her. I just have to end this once and for all then go to her and the baby.
No one knows that Isabella is out of the country since Luke and I tried to make it as discreet as possible. It's part of my plan and I pray it works. I want the best life for my family. The mafia will only destroy it like it did to me. To Isabella. We killed her dad just like we killed my mum. Since then I have been trying to act on the plan I read in a book when I was six years younger. A plan that I have started by taking the first step. Isabella has already signed the merging contracts which makes it easier to manage both companies later. The next step was to get Isabella out of the country discreetly. Done.
I take two knives and insert then on the section I made for them in my belt then get out of my office. The guns are already in place. I see Joey and signal him to follow me to the cells.
Security is tight around here and sometimes I get so bored going through the same long things. I place my finger on the scanner then move to the next door and stand in front of the screen for it to scan my face. I then move to the last door that requires a long ass password and a handprint. The doors are designed that there people who can only access the basic things so they only use the finger scanner. As the ranking increases, the more doors you can access. I access all since I'm the boss here. After every door the number of people decreases until I can only see one person after the last door. Philip, my brother's right hand. I fucking hate him.
When the last door grants me access a long hall greets me. I walk to the furthest part of the hall where there are torture cells that host people who... wrong us.
I move directly to the last one and place my thumb for another scan. At this rate, I can draw my right thumbprint with my eyes closed I swear. The light changes to green before I push the door open. Joey follows me silently into the blood reeking cell. I'll never get used to this.
"It's time to attack." I sit on the chair in front of the tortured woman. Joey takes some pills and a bottle of water then gives them to her. She mumbles thanks before taking the Advil and drinks the whole bottle of water.
"I have an open cut on my thigh." She says after a while. My eyes drop to her thigh where a cut and some blood is seen. The area looks swollen and purple. Her red hair sticks to her face that shows she's in pain. Amelia seems fragile but she's strong considering the amount of pain my brother Liam has inflicted on her. Joey inspects it and nods then leaves. He's going to bring the materials to clean them.
"Did you find him? They'll transfer him in two days to another warehouse." Amelia's worried voice says again. She broke up with Harry the day she told her sister Bianca where to get us. Apparently, she's in love with him and she left him to save him but the opposite happened. They took him to use him as bait against Isabella and Amelia. Amelia is the black sheep of the Italian Mafia as I am for the American.
Since she didn't know how to find us she gave herself to us in one of the attacks after gaining enough information. She'd help me if I save Harry. I never thought twice since I know how Izzy loves Harry and I'd do anything for her. She's after all the love of my life.
"We'll go there tonight. He'll need medical attention so I've already prepared a place four hours from here with every medical help and doctors you'll need." Amelia nods at this with a straight face but I see a smile she's trying to fight.
"I'm doing this for Isabella. Fuck with me and you're dead Amelia Russo." I say as I stand. Joey gets in and starts cleaning the wound. As I open the door Amelia stops me.
"I never underestimate a person in love Sydney Kings." She says with an innocent smile. I nod curtly and immediately get out as Isabella's face fills my mind. I wonder how she is right now.
My private phone rings. 'Can't I get a fucking minute?' I groan as I take it but my face immediately lights up when I see her name.
"Grandmother."
"Uh uh it's Lola
I laugh at that. She always wants me to call her according to the country she's in.
"I take it that it's good in the Philippines."
"It could have been better with my grandson and his new wife here. I'm so mad at you." She scolds me but I laugh.
"Still keeping tabs on me granny?" I tease her.
"You don't call me anymore and it feels like you've forgotten me. How I'm I to know if you're still alive in that horrendous life?" She sighs dramatically. I missed her so much.
We talk for some ten more minutes before she hangs up with my mood lifted but when I look at the file on my desk, it dampens instantly. Fucking Marko Russo.
"Troubles brother?" Liam's voice comes from the door. I look up and see he has his famous smirk and mischievous eyes. What now? "What do you fucking want Liam?" His smirk broadens and he moves to a chair in front of me and sits on it.
"Isabella Styles." He says with a sigh and I pretend not to care about anything he says. "Or should I say Isabella Kings?" I snap my head to him giving him the reaction he was looking for. He looks at me with a face that shows he's achieved something. "You got married and I never even met my sister-in law? Do you hate me that much Sy?"
"I'm not into your games right now. I'm busy." I snap.
"Father knows about her and he really wants to meet her." He stands as he says this but I say nothing. "I don't know if I should tell him your pregnant whore went to have a good time somewhere else?" He says in a mocking tone and I glare at him. Calm down Sydney. "Pick a country Sy." My glare doesn't waver and Liam pretends to shiver.
"Your cold eyes could send me so far away." He opens the door slowly bit but before I breathe in peace, he drops the bomb. "Like Canada." He winks and leaves shutting the door aggressively.
I stand immediately and take my phone. Liam knows where Isabella is. I dial Luke' number who answers the call immediately. "We have change of plans."
