Chapter 87


    ~Cam’s POV~


    The thought kept popping into my head, and as it did, I felt myself bing more helpless and


    agitated on the inside. I couldn’t help but wonder why Luke and I would be taken hostage in the first


    ce. Is Luke the one who did this to me? No, Luke wouldn’t do this to me. No, he simply cannot; after


    all, he is my friend.


    No, Cam; Luke dated Mark. What if they are in this together?


    There was a voice inside my head that murmured something. “Shut the fuck up!” Shut the…” I had just


    started speaking when I was interrupted by the sound of someone groaning. “Luke…Luke is that


    you….”


    “The fuck, Cam, I can’t even be kidnapped in peace,” he groaned again.


    “What? Are you fucking kidding me?”


    “Hey, you just found out you’re pregnant, and you know that cussing isn’t healthy. There is a baby.” I


    feel like pping him right now.

    “Where are we?” I asked.


    “I should ask you that considering I just woke up and my head is spinning,” heughed, “do we call for


    help?” I realize he is panicking, which exins everything.


    “Well, I don’t know. When I opened my eyes, I found myself here, locked inside this ce. I have no


    idea how I got here. I am not even sure if this is a room or what.”


    “What happened? How did we get here in the first ce? “Fuck!” he yelled. “The damn food! It’s the


    damn food.” He gasped, “Are you okay? Is the baby okay?”


    The baby, my baby.


    “Luke, my baby. I am scared. What would I do if something actually did happen to my unborn child?


    There is no way for us to tell what it was that we ate. What if I don’t get to meet my baby and no one


    can help us?” I sobbed at the prospect of not meeting my child.


    “Now stop being such a pussy. You are going to be a mother.


    “Well, Luke, I’m a pussy.” Luke can be quite dramatic, especially when he is in a state of panic. This


    was something I noticed during ourunch.


    “Hello, did you fucking forget who your husband is? Your husband is Christopher freaking Grayston. No


    one dares him, and he lives to tell the story. He will find us before whoever did this can get away with


    it.” Then a loud voice rang out throughout the room.


    “You are so damn right about that.”


    It was Chris. My husband found me. My husband tracked me down.


    The lights suddenly came on, and he approached us. “What on earth were you thinking, Camille? What


    would have happened if my man hadn’t been following you guys?” He turned and said, “And you.” He


    barked at Luke, pointing his index finger. “You misled me about the meeting.” What meeting required


    you two to leave the office and be found unconscious at a restaurant, Cam? Do you know what is at


    stake?”


    “So you did this to us?” I asked.


    “Did what? I did no such thing. I just got my men to hijack the van you guys were suffocating in. Don’t


    leave the house means don’t leave the house, Camille. And the very next time you try to pull that kind


    of crap on me, I dare you not to do it. I might not be so fortunate next time.” I took a nce around.


    Luke and I were in the basement.


    “Did you seriously have to throw us in the basement?”


    “Just thank God you’re…” He took a breather. “Forget it,” he said, carrying me in bridal style. Luke


    trailed behind us.


    I have no idea what is going on, but perhaps I should just stop trying to figure it out and give Chris


    space to handle things on his own.


    ~Christopher’s POV~


    I was startled awake and immediately sat down on the bed, rubbing my face with the palms of my


    hands. Beads of sweat formed on my forehead as I shuddered on the bed. The thought of Mark being


    in my wife’s house brought a total nightmare to the little peace I had left.


    I have faith in my wife.


    Those were the only words I could manage to mutter to myself while I was sleeping. She promised that


    she was mine; I trust her, but I don’t trust that two-faced Mark. I sprang out of bed and made my way to


    the outdoor space adjacent to my apartment. I couldn’t help but let out a sigh as I stuffed my hands


    deep into the pockets of my pants and stared at the dark silhouettes of the trees against the bright blue


    sky. As I looked up into the sky, it was already morning, and the sun was just about to rise, as I


    watched the birds already flying around in search of their breakfast. I doubled back to take a look at the


    time and discovered that it was already half past five in the morning. When I turned around to look at


    the couch again, I noticed that it was in a disorganized state, with a pile of files and some paper lying


    on the ground behind it.


    I’ve been workingte into the night toplete all my outstanding tasks. I turned back and went


    inside, picking up my phone from the nightstand to dial a number.


    “Is it done?” The other person on the other side of the call confirmed that it was done. I managed to


    keep myposure and smile as I made my way back to theptop, but as I did so, I became


    increasingly aware of the sensation that the world was spinning in front of my eyes. This caused me to


    trip over my own feet.


    Fuck!


    It’s as if someone is pounding on my head, and I can’t shake the sensation. This is happening because


    of ack of sleep. But then how can I rx? Not long ago, I found out that my wife was pregnant, and


    today I had to sleep alone because Mark called her and she had to go back to her house and pretend.


    Mark’s attention was on Camille. Although I was able to find quite a bit of information on the Coopers, it


    appears that a member of my own family has been acting as a mole. The Coopers are after us, but


    someone from my family has been providing the Coopers with information, and now that person is


    being yed at their own game. The Coopers were not responsible for the kidnapping of Camille and


    Luke; instead, it was someone from my own family, the identity of whom I have not been able to


    determine. The good thing is that I am always one step ahead of them. I know what the Coopers are


    after, but I still haven’t found who the mole is in my family. My thoughts were disturbed by the buzzing


    of my phone on the nightstand. I stretched my hand and reached out for the phone.


    Chris: Hello


    Robin: Sir, I am still looking into the matter. I still haven’t found out who the mole is.


    I hung up the call. I could have stayed longer on the call if he had the information I asked for.


    Fucking fantastic! What is taking him so long? I am fucking tired of all this?
