21. Have you seen this girl?

Ares didn't even bother locking his room, when he guided me to his room.

This clever bastard, knew exactly what he was doing.

There were two pack members guarded outside his room. Probably because of me, who would no doubt want to make a run for it the minute he fell asleep.

Well, looks like running was no longer available for me.

Cuddle?

Is that all that was on his mind tonight?

He closed the door behind me and I took a look at the room.

It was no doubt a suite. The ambiance of the room screamed rich head to toe with its dark walls and gold chanderlier. My head then turn towards the bed. The bed was huge, like it could fit atleast three people on it. Ares just looked at me observantly. I shyed away from his gaze quickly and went towards the curtains. I with drew them and found a small balcony. The night was dark, so I couldn't quite see the scenery as yet, but all I saw were glowing lights of other small houses clustered about far away on the hills, we were on. It still looked beautiful.

"Why don't you take a shower?" Ares asked startling me from behind.

Shower?

I would love to take a shower, and possibly even a bubble bath, just to relax the nerves, but I'm not going to take that chance, with fifty shades of 365 dni here.

"You're just going to break the door and come in to see me in all my glory aren't you?"

Ares shot me a small smile.

"I could, but I won't. Because the window is too high for you to escape from anyways, and we both know that you will not attack me with the shower head, unless ofcourse you want the *Master* to calm you down again?" He said hoping I would say yes please to that. My cheeks heated once more. I backed away from him the moment he mentioned Master. Suddenly a strange sound of a *whip* played in my head.

I cleared my throat having a flash back of his magic hands on me and sighed, coming back to my senses again.

"How can I trust you?"

"I'm not the big bad wolf that you think I am Veera." His eyes sparked with sincerity. I almost got lost into them untill he got a sudden phone call. I came back to my senses. Damn, what the hell Veera?! Don't let your guard down around him just because he looks handsome and suave, for crying out loud woman! My mind snapped at me to concentrate with caution once more.

Ares cussed lightly under his breath as he looked at who was calling him and looked at me.

"I have sudden business to attend to. I'll be back shortly." Ares took his hand and pulled my calm face towards him. He looked down at me gently and placed a kiss on my forehead sweetly. He pulled away leaving me speechless and went out the door.

Suddenly, I felt alone.

Perhaps a shower would calm me down?

I entered the security CCTV room and met my youngest brother who cocked blocked me the entire day. This better be good before I Troy comes out and snaps at his tail.

**Make it quick, I want to go back to V.**

"What's the matter Franko?"

"This guy at the bar is asking questions, to almost all the staff he can see."

"Questions about who?"

"Veera, his even got a picture of her with him."


The camera zoomed in on him and Ares picked up the phone dialling straight to the bar.


The bar tender picked up the phone.

"*Castle Cascata Bar, how can I help you?*" The bartender asked

"Offer the gentleman a drink on the house and get his name for me Matteo, and text it to me quickly."

"*As you wish*." He hung up, and turned back to the man sitting with a brown jacket.

.
.

Matteo being friendly and charming treated the stranger with another shot, saying it was compliments on the house.

The man smiled and drank to that, and after a very strong shot revealed his name to Matteo.

"Leonardo Montain, now please take a look at this picture one more time. Are you sure you havn't seen her? Here?"

Matteo shook his head. He only worked at the bar and sadly not seen his preety friend, that he was looking for.

Matteo quickly texted back to his Alpha discreetly whilst he made further conversation with him.

M: *Leonardo Montaine, he says his friends call him Leo for short boss.*

Ares smirked delightfully and texted him back.

A: *Get his contact details and take a shot of the girl on your phone and send it to me.*

M: *Ok boss*

"Is it ok if I can take a shot of the picture of this girl you're looking for? Perhaps I may have missed her, but I can show my collegues a photo and ask about her for you?" Matteo said in a helpful way.

"You would do that for me?" Leo said looking at him in a suprised manner.

"Ofcourse, it is our duty to help customers."

"Thankyou Matteo." Leo smiled at him, in appriciation.

"Pleasure sir." Matteo got the shot of the photo and sent it to Ares quickly along with his phone details.

He got up and staggered from his chair looking a little drunk. Matteo immdiately helped him and guided him towards the exit, where he helped him towards the taxi.

Ares sat down looking at the picture of her and Leo together. It p!ssed him off that her boyfriend came looking for her.

"You want me to kill him Ares?" Franko taking out his claws, looking at the picture too.

Ares shook his head at his younger brother and told him about him when he was in her little town two weeks ago.

"So his the boyfriend?! Ares we need to kill him." Franko said looking at the threat.

"No, we don't. I have other plans for him." He smiled slyly thinking of his next move, with Veera.

Ares got up and he was just about to walk out the door when suddenly got a video call.

Troy growled at another interuption and Ares answered the call.

A:"Nico, everything ok in the South brother?" Nico was wildest of the Cascatas and the middle brother of Ares and Franko. He handled his hotels and restaurants at the south of Italy, with his mate Gloria.

N:*"Everything is fine bro, but I have a question. Have you kidnapped a girl recently for work purposes?*"

Franko's ears perked up to and came into the video call.

N:"*Hey Frankie..*"

F:"Hello Nico." Franko greeted back.

A:"What do you mean? What girl?"

Nico showed them a picture and Ares was intrigued. It was a picture of Veera and another girl whom he hadn't seen before. It looked like she was her friend.

Franko chuckled

F: "She's cute bro."

N: *"She's a cop too, you want me to kill her? I know where she's staying?"*

A: "No! No one is killing no one. Nobody touches her friends got that!"

N:"*Oh? So you have the girl then?*"

A"Yes, she's with me and Franko. I will tell you everything, but now I have to go. Do not kill that friend of hers, just keep an eye on her."

Ares handed over his phone to him and finally left to go to his room.

When he arrived to his room, Veera was in bed and fast asleep. He scented her head once more and smiled to himself, relaxing.

Unaware of his precense, Ares removed his clothes, took a quick cold shower and came out. He slowly slipped under the covers and removed the big pillow she had put besides her like a border. Pulling her close and nuzzling his head closer to her nape Ares placed a sweet kiss on her cheek and closed his eyes entering a blissful sleep with her.
