ELIJAH'S POV

"Kill every-fucking-body! Don't leave one of the Russian scum alive. Except for Dimitri, bring him back to me." I yell.

"Yes sir." Everyone replies.

There's a lot of fucking rooms here so this might take a while to find her. But as long as we do find her, i'll be ok. She'll be okay.

It's a constant back and forth of shooting before we clear the main room.

We advance forward and I have them check every single single.

Not one room was left unchecked.

I was like a killing machine with only one goal at the moment.

The hallways were being painted with the blood of my enemy.

"Elijahhh." I heard Dimitri's voice through your the hallways.

Intercom?.. What the fuck is this place.

"I see you're very smart coming here early in the morning. If it was during the day i'd be more prepared. But I advise you stop what your doing or i'll blow this place to shreds. With you and I in here." he says loudly.

"Boss. Ignore him. He's probably bluffing." Ben tells me.

"That. I am not. There's a bomb pretty close to you and I that I can activate at any time. And then you'll only have 3 minutes to get out of here before it goes off." He explains.

"And you say you weren't prepared.." I scoff.

"Turn back now and I won't have to activate it." he tells me.

"I found a way into their security system. Go right ahead, i'll delay the bomb by 10 minutes." Greyson tells me through my earpiece.

Everyone looks at me for what to do.

"Keep checking the rooms." I demand and they do exactly that. No hesitation.

"Boss this rooms locked." one of my men tell me.

"This one too." another says.

"Kick the shit down."

I help of course and as soon as we do I see a familiar room.

I walk in and turn a corner..

There she is.

I run over and cup her face.

When she makes eye contact with me I almost melt where i'm standing.

It takes her a moment to recognize who I am.

"Elijah?.." She says barely above a whisper.

"Yes, it's me i'm here. We're gonna get you out of here, ok?"

I say and start to work the chains around her wrists.

They're not coming loose.

I shoot the chains and catch her before she touches the ground.

She uses all her strength to hold on to me, and it makes me so angry.

Her breathing is shallow and I can tell she is in a huge amount of pain.

If I wouldn't have kicked her out, this shit wouldn't have happened.

I take fault.

"I got you.. You're safe now Lilah." I assure her.

I pick her up and and leave the room.

"We've got Dimitri." Ben tells me.

"Great now get the fuck out of there. You have 4 minutes left before that shit goes off." Greyson informs me.

"Evacuate the fucking building!" I yell and everyone does exactly that.

We hop into the SUV's waiting just outside and once we're in, they drive off.

"Can you stay awake for me until I know you're okay?" I ask touching my nose with her's.

She nods slightly in return.

"Fuck, i'm so sorry Lilah. I won't ever leave your side again, I promise." I tell her.

"It's ok to hate me Elijah... I would if I were you." she whispers.

"I don't hate you. I never could," I replied kissing her forehead.

"But I.."

"I know what you did, but can we please forget about it?.. You belong to the Italian Mafia now. You belong to me, now. You're mine do you understand?.. Fuck what you lied about, you can make it up to me later." I say finally getting off my chest.

A small smile appears on her lips.

"I'm only yours, huh?"

"Yes.. And I'm only yours too Lilah."
