Luciano stared at the message, a frown forming on his handsome face. It soon turned into a dark smirk.

Unknown Location
Amelia's eyes fluttered open, she took in her environment. This place looked like an abandoned warehouse and it was really dark, except for the diming fire.
She tried to move but felt the ropes binding her hands. How did she get here.
"The sleeping beauty is finally awake" a voice mocked in the darkness. She quints her eyes trying to make out the face of her captors. One had a lewd scar on the side of his cheeks and the other had an eye patch.
All in all, they looked hideous.
Amelia tried to struggle free from the ropes but it seemed like an impossible task. She searched her mind and the last thing she remembers was going to the restroom at the park.
"Can't believe the don of the west got tied down by some missy" the other sounded.
"Who are you people, what do you want from me" Amelia said still struggling with the ropes.
"I'd stay still if I were you" the first guy taunted and his colleague snickered.
The goons continued their game of cards totally ignoring Amelia.
Amelia watched them helplessly, she didn't want to stay quiet and wait for them to do away with her, she had to find a way to escape.
She scanned her surrounding, the areas within her reach for anything, anything sharp enough to cut through ropes.
Bingo, she thought as she caught sight of a shard of glass just one feet away.
Now, the problem is how to reach it without alerting the goons.
**************
Luciano smirked as he watched the video sent to him. He had long left the amusement park, he knew the people responsible for Amelia's kidnap and he was not surprised.
Afterall, he knew the rules of the clan but his own plans come first.
"Don, are we going to sit and wait for them to hurt her " his subordinate said.
"They wouldn't dare" he replied. He was so calm that it was terrifying.
Apart from owning multi billion businesses across the globe, Luciano was known as the Don of the West in the under world.
Only a few people know about this. He was like an unreachable shadow, everyone in the underworld was acquainted with the title but not all knew the face.
His marriage to Amelia caused an uproar in the clan he came from, it was against the rules to have a weakness, and having a wife was like the number one weakness in the underworld.
Luciano in the other hand didn't care about the rules, he knew what he was after and he was going to get it, weather it was against the rules or not.
***************
"Ah". Amelia whinced as she cut herself with the shard. She had cut the ropes halfway and was almost exhausted.
The shard of glass was blunt so it was a little difficult using it.
She continued with the task but then, one of the goons turned towards her and whispered something to his friend who also turned to her.
Amelia was uncomfortable with the look they were giving her, but her fears heightened when they stood up and began taking long strides towards her.
"S....s....s...sta...stay....b...back" she stuttered and tried to hasten the glass to cut the ropes.
" Aw, we just want to have some fun missy." The one with the scar snared.
"Stay away from me, stay back " she said still running the blunt glass along the ropes and finally it came undone, she exhaled in relief but was soon reminded of the situation at hand, so she kept her hands as though they were still tied thinking of ways to free herself from the situation.
" Little missy, do you know why you are here" scar face asked again and she shook her head.
"I guess you will never find out, now let's taste the don's meal'' he snickered and his colleague lunched forward, but Amelia slashed the shard across his face so fast that he didn't see it coming.
"Ah, you witch what have you done" he screams in pain. His friend seeing this lands a resounding slap on Amelia's face. The impact sending her face flat to the ground.
" Who do you think you are, now you will face my full wrath" scar face thundered while his friend groaned in pain.
"No, stay away from me . Don't come any closer." Amelia said butt crawling backwards.
The scarred face goon pulled her by her legs forcefully.
"Let go of me, you brut" she struggled kicking him any chance she got and this angered him all the more.
His injured friend was long forgotten, in his blind fury he launched a punch on Amelia and she bled from the lips but that didn't stop her from fighting back.
The goon suddenly tore her nice summer themed dress and she gasped in fear.
No, please no.
' Luciano, please help' by now she was weak from all the struggling but she was still unwilling to give in, with all the strength she could muster she pushed him off her.
The scarred face goon , stumbled back a little but was undeterred.
This time he slapped her across the face but she refused to give up, she tried to find footing but she fell.
" You are one hell of a lady, if you had been obedient, you wouldn't have to suffer this much, I wonder how the don puts up with this attitude of yours." He said in anger.
"Please,stay away from me. Don't hurt me please " Amelia pleaded in a low voice barely above a whisper, but the goon was beyond reason.
He pulled her forcefully, causing scratches all over her body. This time she didn't fight back, she couldn't even if she wanted to.
'Luciano Please Save Me' with this thought, she lay helplessly as the darkness claims her and everything fades away.
