Kidnapped - Part 2

As soon as their captive lost consciousness, Yoda covered his head with a sack while Rambo tied his hands behind his back.

"Well, that was easy." Maril patted her hands and called Selene, who came out immediately.

"Are you guys okay?" Selene looked at each of them in concern.

"We are fine. But he'll not be soon." Maril kicked the man who was lying unconscious on the ground.

"I was scared that something would happen. I am glad I didn't mess up the plan." Selene patted her heart, which was running at a hundred miles per hour.

"What are you saying, darling? You did your job perfectly." Maril hugged Selene while praising her. "Now, let's do ours. Before that, let us drop you home."

"But.."

"Good girls aren't supposed to see things they shouldn't. Be a good girl, sweetie. I will call you once everything ends," Maril interrupted before she put forth her request.

Even though she didn't mind bringing Selene along with her, she didn't wish her to taint her innocent eyes. Selene had led a sheltered and virtuous life, and she wanted her to remain that way.

"Fine." Selene gave up persuading. Anyway, Maril wouldn't agree to her request irrespective of what. She might as well save her energy.

"Rambo, you drive, and Selene, take the shotgun. Yoda and I will handle this scumbag," Maril instructed, and none of them had any objections about it.

Rambo unlocked the car and opened the door for Selene while Maril looked on.

"Romeo forgot his friends after he got his Juliet," she mumbled and looked at the man on the ground. "Yoda, help me."

Yoda and Maril lifted the man and dragged him towards their car.

"Damn, he is quite heavy," Yoda complained and Maril agreed silently.

Even though they had barely taken a few steps, they were already sweating.

Maril pushed her captive inside and sat on his left while Yoda took his right before Rambo started the car.

No one noticed the two men who were watching their every move while an unconscious man lay by their feet.

"Will Don be alright?" Luca was worried about his Boss and glanced at Anthony, seeking assurance.

"Do you think those people could do anything to him?" Anthony looked at him as if he were a fool and Luca scratched his head in embarrassment.

"That's true." He grinned cheekily. "I just hope his plan succeeds."

"It will. Don't worry. Let's take care of this trash in the meantime."

The two men then threw him in the back seat of their car and got ready to handle the next part of their Boss' plan.

"Selene, I will call you once everything is over." Maril leaned out of the car and promised. "Until then, get some rest or have a bubble bath to relax yourself."

"Be careful, Maril. Thank you, Yoda, Rambo."

Selene had got used to Maril calling the men by their nicknames. So, she had addressed them the same way without thinking. It was only when she saw Rambo's lips twitching she realized what she had done and her cheeks heated up in embarrassment.

"I'm sorry. It's just...it's just...."

"It's fine," Rambo replied, his lips curling up into a smile when he saw her cheeks tinted pink. "You can call me anything you want."

'Aww, how sweet! Atta boy! Come on, you are close to the goalpost now. Hit the goal.' Maril thought, enjoying the awkward conversation between the couple she was rooting for.

Selene bit her lip but didn't reply to him. "I will leave now. Maril, don't forget to call me."

"Will do." Maril waved at her and Selene waved back at them before turning around and entering her home. "Let's go, Rambo. The scumbag is in our hands. No one can save him."

Rhysand who was listening to them, didn't take her words to heart. After all, they weren't for him. He remained silent and continued to pretend to be unconscious. But soon, his heart skipped a beat when he sensed a gaze on him, and he didn't have to see to confirm who it belonged to.

"Yoda, don't you think there's something odd about this scumbag?" He heard Maril speak and his heartbeat quickened.

"What do you mean, Diva?"

"Why do I feel that he has grown tall all of a sudden? Was he always this big?" Maril pointed out and Rhysand held his breath.

"You must be mistaken, Diva. Who else could it be other than the scumbag?" Yoda replied and Rhysand thanked Yoda silently for helping him.

'I will reward you well in the future. You did a great job.' He gave him a thumbs up secretly.

"You're right. I must be overthinking." Maril agreed and leaned back on the seat, making herself comfortable. "Sanitize the car once we are done tonight."

"Fine." Yoda sighed, his shoulders drooping in defeat. Did he have any other choice? He did. But could he choose it? He couldn't.

Silence followed until they reached the garage, and once they were in, Maril pulled her captive out with him. Even though she was exerting all her energy, it barely had any impact on Rhysand. So, he cooperated with her himself.

"Tie him to the chair," Maril commanded, and Rambo got to work instantly. He first released their captive's hands before pushing him onto the chair. He then tied his hands to the chair.

Rhysand knew that it was time to start with his act. So, before they removed the sack from his head, he groaned as if he was in pain.

"Who are you?" he questioned, making sure to appear as intimidating as possible. He even changed his voice slightly to not reveal himself before Maril. His tone held a coldness only his subordinates and his enemies knew. After all, he had to put up a convincing act. "Your mindless act is going to cost you."

Maril's brows knitted thoughtfully. She found the voice utterly familiar. But she couldn't fathom where she had heard it.

"Remove the sack from his face," she ordered, and Yoda was just about to do it when they heard a loud crash outside the garage. It was as if something was being destroyed."

"Let me take a look." Rambo offered and went out to take a look.

"Show yourself to me. I promise I will give you a quick death. Otherwise..." Rhysand continued with his act and threatened them.

Maril's frown deepened and a sense of foreboding filled her heart. "Remove the sack."

Yoda was on it and the moment she saw the face, Maril went into a state of shock, while Yoda was frightened out of his wits.

"Rhysand Moretti!" Yoda screamed and ran out of the garage in fright, leaving Maril to handle the mess.
