Chapter 3 The abduction

DANGEROUS QUEST

Episode 3

The family all ate in silence, each savoring the meal made by Charlotte and the maids. Mia felt the need to talk but couldn't as she wouldn't want to disobey one of her father's favorite rule.

"Hold your peace while eating"

She cleared her throat noisily and earned a glare from Jaden.

"What?" She mouthed and picked her meal

Suddenly Charlotte felt her throat go tight and drank more water.

"Ahhhhh!" She groaned when her throat started burning. "Honey?" Zach called in amazement. "Mum?" Jaden and Mia called at once... Soon Zach also felt his throat burning and quicky inspected the drink. "The drink has been poisoned"

"What?" They all gasped.

"Get the doctor!" He groaned as he felt the world going upside down.

"Get the telephone Mia!!" Jaden yelled as he tried to keep his mother from falling. Mia could feel the world spinning so fast that she couldn't comprehend what was happening. One minute, they had been dinning peacefully and the next, their parents were in danger. She jerked herself into motion.

"I don't think there's need for that!" A cold voice Interrupted. They all turned to see a handsome young with a pistol in each hand. "Who the hell are you?!" Jaden queried angrily

"Your nightmare!" He snarled. "On your knees!" He snapped. He was already getting irritated by the boy's guts. "Don't try anything funny or you get this into your god-damned skull" he warned.

"Do you understand?" He asked in a dangerous voice. He could see fear boldly written on their faces as they nodded like puppets. That was what he wanted. "Power.... To be in control!"

"To be in control". Alpha had ordered him to wipe out the whole family but he was sure but he was as hell that he wouldn't be following his orders.

"Hey you stand!" He motioned to Mia... She stood up hurriedly. She was obviously shaking

"Take this" he snapped and handed her a duct tape. "Now use it on your brother" he grinned.

As she proceeded to do the job, Max glanced at his wristwatch and knew his window of opportunity was growing short. He knew Alpha might not trust him fully and might not trust him fully. The averagely built bearded man must not be underestimated. When she was done. He ordered her to do the same to herself while he cuffed their hands.

"You've got less than an hour to get that poison out of your parents' system" he stated coldly to Jaden and motioned to Mia to move.

As they hurried down the stairs, Mia felt the urge to scream. All their maids and guards were lying lifelessly and she was being abducted against her own will. In the same breath, she knew disobedience could bring her life to an abrupt end.

"Get into the damned car now!" He snapped with rage. She found herself entering the car like she was being controlled with a remote.

Suddenly Max covered her nose with something she couldn't fathom. As she made her way into darkness, she had only one question.... "WHY?"

***

"Mission successful!" Mia stated to his boss and disabled the tracker he had with him the whole time. He knew Alpha would be furious when he finds out he had been tricked by another gang Lord. But he cared less. What mattered most was that he had accomplished what looked like an impossible task. His boss, the master planner had planned it perfectly and he'd helped him achieve it.

As he drove speedily into the mansion, all the men gathered to welcome him except of course, the boss himself. Soon they all moved into the dark room where he found the boss waiting for him.

"Greetings supreme" Max greeted curtly

"Welcome home son!" Supreme beamed showing his stained teeth proudly. "Well done!" Supreme commended while Max bowed a little.

"There's more to discuss" he stated and looked at the men. "I'm sure you all know this is just the beginning, so I want you to prepare for the task that awaits us"

"Yes supreme" they all chorused.

He stood up gracefully and each man knew what it meant.

Time to disperse!

"Boss" I think the tracker has been deactivated " Ray stated trying as much as possible to choose his words. "What?" Alpha yelled.

"That motherfucking godforsaken swine had the guts to betray me!!!!"

Whoever that was behind this got him real good. And this time around he would never let this slide.

"Get out!" He bellowed when he noticed Ray was still there watching him closely. "Okay boss" Ray stated calmly and moved towards the exit. When Ray was finally out, Alpha moved towards the balcony. He needed time to think alone

Mia woke to the sound of strange voices. As she opened her eyes, she wondered where she was and why she was there. She looked around and found out she was spread-eagled on the bed and both hands and legs were cuffed to the bed post.

"This wasn't her room" she thought

"What's going on?" She asked no one in particular and everything came rushing back at her.

Her parents had been poisoned and they were helpless

"Oh dad!" She sobbed pathetically when she remembered how a hero like him had fallen so easily.

"Mum!" She cried when she remembered how vunerable she looked when she was being taken away by her captor.

They had planned it so well that there wasn't a mistake!

One thing she knew was that she needed to be brave. She would definitely show her captors the other side of Mia

At least she hoped so.
