Liam was tightly grabbed in a difficult position, facing the wall right in front and a weight pressing down on his body from behind. He struggles to take a look back at the person’s face but fails to do so.
Liam, even in such a helpless situation, can not stop thinking about Alex who was alone in the bar. Around ten men had entered the place a few minutes ago and he was stuck here with a stranger. Liam can not control his anger anymore and shouts. He tried to say something but as a hand was covering his mouth, he was unable to utter the words.
The person holding Liam sees him struggle to speak and says in a teasing tone “Want to say something, rabbit?”
“I saw you were planning to hop to some place. Where do you think you were headed to?” The person holding Liam says in a serious tone and slowly removes his hand from Liam’s mouth but keeps him holding in the same position.
Liam struggles to speak after coughing but says “Who are you? What do you think you are doing by holding me like this?”
“Let me go when I’m asking you nicely. Don’t say later that I didn’t warn you ahead.”
A loud laughter voice came from behind as the person kept on laughing at Liam’s words. He squeezes Liam’s wrists hard. Liam groans in pain. Suddenly Liam feels a warm breath on his nape as the person behind leans in to whisper in Liam’s ears.
“What relation do you have with Sasha?”
“What do you know about him?”
Liam gets more confused as he hears words coming from behind. He pulls all his strength and punches hard on that person’s stomach and gets free from the tight grip. As he turns back, he sees a man in his 20s, handsome, tall, muscular with long red hairs looking straight at Liam’s face. His gaze was admiring Liam’s features.
Liam felt the gaze uncomfortable and pushes the person away from himself. Because of the push Liam’s bag zip snaps out and his id card falls down on the road.
The man picks up the card and stands up. Liam tries to take it. The man takes a look at Id and gives it back. He leans towards Liam and speaks in a low voice “Liam. I see this rabbit got a name. Nice to meet you.”
“Although the pleasure is all mine. By the way, I am Boris.”
“You are really something. Sasha needs to be careful if he is hiding something like this.” Boris laughs mysteriously as he completes his sentence. Boris then leaves Liam alone on the spot and goes in the opposite direction. As soon as he disappears, Liam goes straight to the bar to check on Alex.
Liam enters the bar but opposite to his expectation the scene didn’t look chaotic. Everyone inside was enjoying their drinks and talking with each other. Liam suddenly feels as if he is witnessing a dream.
He was still surprised. Suddenly a few men wearing suits start to roam around Liam. Among them one man comes close to Liam and took him towards the table while talking.
Man in suit says- “Hi, you are new here? It feels like you are searching for someone?”
Liam tries to avoid him but to ease the suspicion he tries to blend in by answering “Yes, I’m new here. And I was looking for someone.”
The man again says “May I ask you, who you are looking for, if you don’t mind? Maybe I can be of any help.”
“You see, I’m a regular here. I know everyone around here” the man continues.
Liam says in a nervous tone “No it’s alright, I can look by myself. You don’t need to do the work.”
“Thanks for asking, I appreciate your concern.” Liam looks away as he completes his sentence.
The man in suit loosened his tie and stood up beside Liam, he says with a serious and threatening tone “You just have to answer what I’m asking. Don’t make ridiculous assumptions by yourself, kid.”
“Are you looking for Sasha? If you are, then you are in the right place.”
“Ah… Looking for trouble. Serves you right I guess, you are asking for it.” The man says while looking at Liam.
Suddenly a man covers Liam’s face from behind with a cloth, before he could say anything. The sudden move makes Liam scream in anger and in a little bit fear. He thinks in his mind what trouble I’m about to get into. Alex, you better save yourself because as soon as I will be free, I’m going to kill you myself.
In the basement Alex was fighting the goons and as soon as he heard the scream of a young boy, he was startled. He kicks the last man standing in the basement and calls Emma. Emma tells him about the incident that happened earlier. As soon as he hears the boy's depiction he mutters to himself, Please don’t be you. You really are a lot to handle. Liam, hang in there; I’m definitely going to save you myself.
