Chapter:-4

"Ohm slow down!" exclaimed Man, "Where are we going?"

"To save Ashly," replied Ohm, "We can't just leave her in the hands of Alexander."

"How are we even going to find her? We can't get to main base  without a permission and there's no way a anyone would help us. They all work for Alexander," said Man.

"Alexander is the Mafia Don  isn't he? He must have a place here," said Ohm.

"You want to march into the lair of the most powerful mafia to have ever lived?" asked Zia.

"Ashly would do the same for any of us," said Ohm, "But if you don't want to come, I understand."

"That's not what I meant; I just don't want to walk into this blindly. That won't help Ashly," said Zia.

"What about your plan? Alexander basically runs the hole city these days, wouldn't your friend know where Alexander lives?" ask Man.

"You're a genius, Man!" exclaimed Ohm, hugging his brother.

"Is everything ready for tomorrow?" asked Alexander.

"Yes, I've notified all the mafia leaders all around the world in the area to witness the bonding," replied Sam. "And Cat agreed to do the ceremony for you."

"Really? I thought she'd be against this," said Win. Cat was part group after all.

"Well she knows that Alexander needs a Donna to ground his people's. And while she's not exactly happy about the situation, she knows that she's the only one  to do the ceremony for Alexander," replied Sam. "That or she wants to be there to stop Alexander  from killing Simon when the govenment goes back on their word, because personally, I don't think the government is going to deliver."

Just as Alexander was going to reply, someone began pounding on the door and ringing the doorbell simultaneously. Instantly, Win blurred to the door, ready to fight. No one would have the nerve to do something like this. Only a stupid would show Alexander such disrespect.

" WHO DARES DISTURB ME?" roared Alexander . Motioning for Win to step aside, he immediately open the door and then he  immediately recognized the three soldiers as the ones that were accompanying his Ashly the previous night. 

"Well, if it isn't my soon-to-be in-laws," said Alexander , grinning like a cheshire cat. "Many, was it? Put that  gun away before you hurt yourself. I'd hate to have to tell my dear Ashly that his brother injured himself in my lair."

"She's not yours!" exclaimed Man, "And my name is Man."

"Not yet, but come tomorrow morning, she will be," said Alexander.

"Where are you keeping my sister, Alexander? I swear to God that if you've hurt her in any way, I'll kill you. I don't care how powerful you are, I won't stop until you die," said Ohm.

"She's probably in headquarter by now," said Alexander, as if he was talking about the weather and not the kidnapping of someone's sister, "My dear Ohm, I have no intention of harming Ashly. I intend to love and treasure her, not hurt her."

"You're using a damn  contract to force her to be your mate. How can you say you're not going to harm her?" asked Ohm, angry tears streaming down his usually flawless face.

"Do you think she'd be better off with your parents? With the government? If they cared about her at all, they would've fought for her. They barely put up a fight when I made my demands. Do you want to know what your mother said when I asked for Ashly? She said that she'd kill her before she'd hand her over. What kind of mother does that make her? Ashly deserves to be cherished and protected and I intend to do just that. You might not see it right now, but I'm what's best for her," said Alexander.

Ohm didn't know what to say. He knew his mother was bad, but even in his worse nightmare he never thought his mother capable of threatening the life of his own daughter. He turned to Man, who was just as speechless.

Seeing that her friends were too distraught to speak, Zia stepped forward, "I know we can't stop you no matter how hard we try. But please, let us see Ashly  before the ceremony. They dragged her off without explaining anything to her. She must be so scared right now."

Alexander' heart broke slightly when Zia  said that Ashly was likely scared. He had requested that his Ashly be removed from that place to protect her from her mother, but neglected to think about how confused the Ashly must be. He knew he'd have to hurt Ashly to protect her, but maybe Alexander  could give his Ashly some level of comfort before he tore her world apart.

Sighing dramatically, Alexander  began call his people  , "I'll send a  message to Malachi to allow you to stay with Ashly until the ceremony tomorrow. But don't try anything stupid. There's nowhere for you to run. There's a reason they call me the most powerful Mafia Don."
