•KINLEY•I stood in the kitchen of our new home unpacking boxes of plates Gianni had ordered.Renato was playing on his play mat on the floor.Gianni was pacing between the rooms while on the phone and I was trying to hear what he was saying because he looked worried, but I wasn't able to hear what he was saying."Baby, I need to go and meet Barney. Luca is on his way to wait here with you.""Is it about Jodie?""We think that he may have an idea of where Callum is.""Okay, let me know?""I will." He kissed me goodbye before leaving.A part of me wanted to go with him, but I also wanted to spend more time with Renato and bond with him more than what I had been.I finished unpacking the kitchenware and made Renato something to eat and was busy feeding him when Luca walked in."Sorry, I'm late. We had an incident and my son's school.""What happened? Is he okay?""He's fine. He fell off the monkey bars.""Oh gosh, taking after his father, I see."Luca chuckled and took the spoon from me

•GIANNI•Sitting in Euphoria with Kinley felt strange after so long.After Luca had picked up Renato I took Kinley out for dinner before she decided she wanted to dance.In all truth, I wanted to go home, but being in this environment was becoming an issue for my drug problem.I sipped on my drink while keeping my eyes on Kinley who was dancing. I was sitting at a table near the VIP room."Hey, I haven't seen you here in a while." Janet was standing beside me suddenly, her hand leaning against the back of my chair.I guessed she must have been on duty dancing for the night judging by her attire of sparkly underwear."Yeah, Kinley wanted to come by," I motioned to my wife."I heard rumors that she returned, I had no idea they were true. We didn't think she would be back."I nodded, but I wasn't really interested in having this conversation with her.Kinley and I were already having enough issues, I didn't need to make it worse by entertaining a woman I used to sleep with."She looks li

•KINLEY• I paced the warehouse while waiting for Fin to return. "He's crossed us and now he's run off," Barney said. "No, he's late that's all." Just as the words left my mouth the door opened and Fin walked in. I shot Barney an 'I told you so' look. "Noah hasn't had any contact with Callum, but I gave him a call." "And?" "He's meeting me tomorrow morning. I asked if he was involved with Gianni being taken and he laughed and said we would talk about it tomorrow." I turned to Luca, "You're coming with me to that meeting." Luca made a face, "With? Wouldn't you rather wait here while we go? We'll bring him back here." I shook my head, "No. I'm going." Barney gave Luca a pointed look, "This is why he locked her in a room." "Barney shut up," I exclaimed with a roll of my eyes. Fin took a seat, "So what's the plan, temp boss?" "Where are you meeting him? Is it secluded or public?" "Public." "Okay, try and get him into your car. Luca, you hide in the backseat and when he's in,

•KINLEY•My half-drunken coffee sat in front of me with empty pain pill sachets scattered across the table.My head hurt and my eyes felt heavy.It was already halfway through the night and neither Callum nor Noah was talking.I glanced over to where Barney and Luca were talking amongst themselves while shooting glances over at our hostages.I looked over at Fin, thinking over what he said earlier. He was sleeping across two strategically placed chairs and looked a bit odd considering his large build.I took a sip of my now cold coffee while trying to think what our next move should be.And then an idea came over me.I got up and went over to Fin, crouching down I shook him."What?" He asked as he opened his eyes with confusion."Come outside, I have an idea, but I need your input on it." I got up and walked out without waiting.A few minutes later Fin walked out, still rubbing his eyes, "Okay, what is it?""Jodie was in a relationship with Callum, right?""Yeah, I guess," he shrugged

•GIANNI•I watched through narrowed eyes as Jodie paraded around with my son on her hip acting as if he was her child.My hands were cuffed, making it impossible for me to move, and that drove me insane because all I wanted to do was rip her head off."Oh, you're such a beautiful little boy, aren't you?" She smiled at me, "Daddy must be real proud, huh?""Jodie, this is ridiculous. What game do you think you're playing? Taking me was one thing, but to take my son too? How far are you willing to take this?"She continued smiling while she warmly embraced my son, "You have no idea how far I'm willing to take this, baby. I will take it as far as I need to to make sure I get what I want.""My wife isn't the type of mother who is going to let this go. My men are as good as I am, you should know this better than anyone. Do you really think they will allow you to get away with this?"She shrugged, "I have it all figured out. They will never find us," she walked over to me, "Look, I know that
