Manik's POV

Three days. It has been three fucking days and she is gone. Gone without a hint. I couldn't even rest for a little while knowing her life was in danger.

Navya was gone too. And Cabir, he had gone crazy with her absence. Who wouldn't? She was eight months pregnant for fuck's sake. And she was kidnapped too. We had been trying to find out who was behind it because honestly I had many enemies to bring me down within a second.

That day when I and Cabir had left for another mission we didn't know it would turn out like this. We had gone to rescue a bunch of girls who were kidnapped and being forced to become prostitutes! Sure there was someone behind it but just as we had taken the girls outta that hell there were firings around and everything messed up. Cabir and me managed to fire back but till when? My men were nowhere to be seen and it was high time I take that matter in my hands.

We managed to escape out of there not before getting the girls at a safe place. But what I had not imagined was coming home to see the girls gone with the blood on the floor. It terrified me to think what would have happened. I fucking swear once I found it who was behind all this I will give him the most painful death.

"Manik!" I looked behind and saw Cabir with bags under his eyes and looking disheveled. I know he was too stressed for the three of them.

"Did you find anything?" He asked hopefully and I sighed shaking my head.

"No. I can't find anything. I bloody don't know why can't I find who is doing all this!" I gritted.

"We will soon Manik! And when we do, we won't let go so easily!" I could feel him clenching his jaws and fists as he dashed out of there.

At that moment my phone rang and I picked it up without bothering to see the name.

"Hello son!" That voice, it was like a slap on my face. Telling me about my reality that where I belong to.

"I. Am. Not. Your. Son!" I gritted gripping the phone tight in my hands.

"Ah! I see! Still can't get over your Mom's death!" I knew he was smirking on the other end.

"Don't you fucking say anything about her from your filthy mouth! I will fucking kill you!" I hissed and he chuckled making me more angry.

"I won't do that if I were you! You are more smarter than you think son! I would suggest you to leave all the bullshit you've been doing until now and join in my world! It will benefit you!" He said coldly and I swear I wanted to smash his face right then.

You are more smarter than you think!

I would suggest you to leave all the bullshit you've been doing until now and join in my world!

It will benefit you!

"You fucking kidnapped them!" His words rang in my ear and I knew it was him.

Fuck! Why didn't I think of it earlier!

"Now! Now! See you are there. I knew you were smart son!" He said coolly and it made my blood boil.

"Francis fucking Russo! If you or your men ever lay a finger on her or my sister I swear I will hunt you down and rip your heart from your chest!" I was shaking, my voice menancingly low.

He just laughed making me grip the phone more tightly.

"You dare too much! I don't know what all your brother, oops, half brother would have done with her! Must have enjoyed that chick!" He was still the same.

My breathing was ragged and I didn't say anything as I punched the wall making a hole over there with blood dripping from my hand. Suddenly my eyes flew open and I quickly opened my laptop.

"I know what you are trying to do Francis! Provoking me won't help! You know I will come there and get her!" I challenged him searching something on the laptop. I heard him growl as he cursed under his breath.

"Manik Malhotra! I know you will come here but not for getting her, for entering into the real Mafia world!" He said as he hung up and I threw my phone away staring at the laptop which now displayed his location.

"Get ready to die Francis! This time its going to be your end. For forever!" I walked out of my room slamming the door behind.

"Cabir! I found them! Let's go!" I dashed out not caring about any of his questions right now. Igniting the engine I started the car and drove away roughly.

"Manik what the fuck? What the hell is going on? Where are they? Who is behind all this?" Cabir asked impatiently as I drove rashly.

"Francis!" I hissed gripping the steering in my hand and he went silent.

"He did all this to get you?" He asked and I took a sharp turn trying to control the burning rage.

"He wants me to get into his world!" I knew we were alone in going there and we had to play it wisely. One mistake and it would ruin everything.

"Manik what are you planning?" He asked seeing me sitting almost calmly but there was a storm inside me.

"To burn his fucking place!" I replied menancingly and stopped the car with a jerk.

"I'm going inside! You go and get Nandini and Navya!" I ordered Cabir and he nodded leaving.

I marched inside with a cold face when I noticed his men standing outside. I stopped and took a step back looking at the man in his eye as he looked down in shame. They were all my men who proved nothing but to be traitors.

"Francis!" My voice boomed in the mansion as his guards came and stood in the room surrounding me.

"Oh! My son is here! You are pretty fast or should I say pretty desperate!" He mocked coming in the picture and I stood with nothing but a cold face.

"I'm ready! I'm ready to join your world and come with you!" I said it straight and his eyes held surprise. I know he won't believe me so easily.

"And what do you want in return?" He asked slyly and I resisted the urge to punch him in the face.

"Free them! Let them go! Only then I would do as you say" I said coldly and he chuckled.

"I knew it! You love her too much, don't you?" His question caught me off guard and I froze. Love? I love her?

"Roy! Get the girls!" He ordered breaking my trance and I saw as he went upstairs and my heart thudded in my chest. I was going to see her after so long!

"Boss! The girls are not there in the room!" The guy named Roy came running down. I smirked inwardly seeing Francis turn furious as he shot Roy the same moment. Cabir has done his work!

"Where the fuck are the girls?" His voice boomed and the guards looked down.

"Ah! Francis if you can't give me what I want, how do you expect me to give you what you want!" I raised an eyebrow at him and his turned towards me hissing.

"Manik Malhotra!" He sneered but I rolled my eyes.

"Cool it down Francis! You don't think I'm afraid of you, do you?" It was my turn to provoke him and he was clearly getting at it. I walked around him looking at his agigated face which gave me peace. My mother's face flashed infront of me and I curled my fists.

"So that excuse of a son of yours! Where is he? Is he hiding somewhere listening and watching his so called father losing it? Come on! Let me see my brother, oops, half brother!" I tched and he clenched his jaws, gritting his teeth.

"And you think by getting my men you will win? Such a lame excuse! You know I used to think you are dumb! But this dumb? You proved it today, father! Trust me I never wanted to disrespect that word but looking at you I guess you wanted to hear it!" I went behind it and seeing his stiff posture I knew he was controlling himself.

"Didn't you?" I whispered in his ears and boom.

The last straw! He lost his patience and spun around aiming his gun at me.

"I will kill you!" He seethed gripping the metal in his hand and I chuckled.

"Aww come on! Just some time before you wanted me to join your business right? How can you change your mind so easily?" I mocked and he smirked.

"The same way I changed my mind when i was with your mother!" That did it, my face hardened at the mere mention of her name.

"Lost it, eh?" He laughed.

"You know she was such a sexy woman! Ah! I still remember when I had her under me screaming and -!"

"You fucker!" I yelled and lunged at him catching him off guard. His gun dropped from his hand as i threw punches at his face, stomach and anywhere and everywhere I could.

He was bleeding but still smiling which angered me even more. All his men did nothing seeing their boss getting beaten by me.

"Fucking bastard! I will fucking kill you! How dare you disrespect my mother!" I was getting mad each second.

"Dis-respect? I raped her my s-son! And I en-joyed that alot!" He managed to say between the punches I threw at him.

"Ahhh!" I screamed as I banged his head against the floor and he coughed out blood.

"Manik!" I heard Cabir scream my name as I continued to punch him.

"Manik! Leave him! We have something more important to take care of!" He tried to get me off of that fucker but I was blinded by rage.

"Cabir leave me! I will kill this fucking son of a bitch! He raped my mother! He killed her!" I yelled and there was no stopping. The pain I was going through, the pain my mother had gone through was something much more than anyone could imagine. I was burning! Burning from the inside.

"Manik, Nandini and Navya are still missing!" He yelled on top of his voice and I stopped abruptly.

Francis spitted blood and laughed a little. I glanced at him viciously as I stood up and taking out my gun and aimed it at me.

"May you rot in hell!" I sneered and before pulling the trigger I heard him say.

"Proud of y-you L-Lily!" Not caring a bit I pulled the trigger watching the blood splutter everywhere.

"Let's go!" I said and we walked out of there.

Francis Russo! Your chapter is over!

I love you Mom! I hope you are at peace!

I wiped away the single tear that managed to escape my eye. Glancing at Cabir I saw him tensed as the girls were still missing.

"Cabir relax! They must not have gotten too far! I guess they would have tried to escape from here!" I suggested to calm him down although I was more worried for them.

"I don't feel good about this Manik!" He said and I sighed.

"Sir!" We heard a voice and turned around to see Jack, one of my trusted men.

"Fucking get lost!" I barked and started walking.

"Sir I can tell where they must have gone!" He said and I stopped. Turning towards him I walked at him and asked coldly.

"They who?" My voice was low and dangerous.

"Nandini Ma'am and Navya Ma'am!" He answered and I lost my calm and caught him by his collar.

"Where are they? Tell me?" I yelled and he looked down.

"L-Lily helped them!" He stuttered and I let out a frustrated groan.

"Who the fuck is Lily!?" I asked harshly.

"Francis Russo's daughter!" He answered and I froze. He had a daughter too.

"She helped them escape through the back door which leads to the forest!" He said and I looked at Cabir.

"And why are you helping us now? After betraying us?" Cabir asked coldly as I left him.

"Because I know the fear of losing a family!" He said with pain in his voice and we were stunned.

"Francis had bribed us into joining him but then when I had refused he threatened to kill my wife and my unborn child! He held them captive and I had no choice!" He sighed and looked down.

I let out a sigh and walked towards him. Keeping a hand on his shoulder, he looked up at me.

"Nothing will help to your wife or your child! I will find them!" I assured him and he looked surprised.

"You won't kill me?" He asked and I frowned.

"Why will I?"

"Because I betrayed you!" He said.

"Trust me you only have borne the fear of losing your family but I have beared the pain of losing one!" Saying so I walked away leaving him stunned behind.
