Chapter 16: Save Me

Valeria

He sat up in bed. He studied my facial expression.

"I'm not choosing. Valeria, I'm in love with you, but I love what I do as well. I'm going to do everything I can to protect you and our baby."

"Tony, tha-."

I stopped in the middle of my sentence, when the lights went out.

I felt a hand around my mouth.

"Valeria, where are you?"

I tried to scream, but it was muffled.

"Valeria!"

The hand was replaced with some kind of cloth.

I tried to scream again, but I couldn't.

A wave of tiredness washed over my body.

My body went numb as I went into a slumber.

Tony

I heard a noise in front of me. I heard the dragging of feet on the floor. The sound was too familiar.

"Valeria!"

I tried to get up, but I couldn't. My legs were numb.

The lights came back on. I saw that Valeria was gone. I looked on the floor and saw blood.

Giovanni, Bruno, and Alfonzo rushed in my room.

They stopped in their tracks when they saw the blood.

"Someone took her."

"We're going to get her back."

"You don't know that. This isn't like when Alexei took her. This time we don't know where she is."

"Ton-."

"I need to be alone."

Unknown

I looked down at the beautiful unconscious woman on the ground. I cranked up the van.

I pulled out my phone and dialed a number.

"Boss, I got her."

"Bring her to me."

The line went dead.

I picked her up and threw her in the back of the van.

"Get the hell away from her!"

I saw two men running towards me.

I ran to the driver's side and pull off.

Giovanni

Bruno and I rushed back to Tony's room.

He was in the middle of his bed with a bottle of Hennessy.

"How in the hell did you get to the liquor cabinet? We've been gone 5 minutes."

He took another sip.

"We know who took her. It was one of Alexei's men. I recognized the van. Let's go get her."

"What can I do? I can't even walk."

"Because you haven't tried. Come on. Get up."

He looked up at us. The stubborn man finally put the bottle down and lifted off the bed.

We helped him off the bed. He lost his balance the first few times, but then he began walking fine.

"Round up the rest of the men. We're getting back my princess and we're burning the Petrov Manor to the ground."

Valeria

When I woke up, I felt as if I was moving. I looked at my surroundings and saw that I was in a van. I saw that my hands were tied. I sat up on my knees and tried to look at the driver, but there was a long black wall separating me from his view.

I looked around for something to free my hands.

I tried to chew the rope and it loosened a little, but I couldn't free myself.

I rubbed my hands against the walls, looking for a door handle.

I found one and as I tried to open it, I heard a voice.

"It's no use. He's just going to find you again."

I looked behind me and saw a familiar face.

"Alissa."

She looked different. Her long red hair was messy and she was dirty. Her clothes were ripped and had grass stains.

"What are you doing here?"

"Oh, well, I'm just enjoying the ride. Do you think I'd be here with you if I had a choice?"

"Well, someone's bitchy."

"Do you not get how serious this is? We're about to die."

"Tony will find me. We always find each other."

She rolled her eyes.

"I can't believe he chose you over me.", she said while laughing.

"I can.", I spat.

Her laughter ceased.

The van stopped. The door opened soon after. I looked around and noticed the familiar setting.

"I'm home?"

A bag was placed over my head and I was being dragged out the car. I was picked up and thrown over someone's shoulder. I began kicking and punching.

Soon, I was being sat down and I felt rope around my ankles.

The bag was removed. I looked up to see Victor staring at me.

"Victor?"

"Hello Princess."

"Why am I here?"

"You're a traitor. You chose him over us."

"Alexei was going to kill me. You knew it. I had to leave."

"And you just ran to the Andiacchi's."

"Victor, it's me. Valeria. You're princess. You can't do this."

He walked closer to me.

"I have no choice. I have to prove that I'm cut out to be the Russian Mafia Boss."

"Please, don't."

"Valeria, I-."

"I'm pregnant, Victor. My daughter deserves to live a long, happy life."

"Daughter?", he said, obviously shocked.

"Don't let her grow up without a mother like we both did."

"These men are expected a dead body to come out of here."

"Please, Victor."

"Okay, I'm going to get you out of here. I ju-."

The basement door was bust down and in came Tony with his men in tow.

Guns were being pointed in Victor and my direction.
