Harry's POV
'We have to save her.'
'How? I have no money.'- Jace looked with hope at me.
'I'll give you, but then I don't want to see you. I don't want you to be close to Emma.'
'But...'
'You ruined her life, what do you expect me to say? Thank you?'
Both were on the couch, the awkward silence didn't disappear because there was nothing to say. Half an hour after the last conversation with Matthew, we received another call.
'Are you ready, Jace?'- His voice echoed around.
'Yes, say an hour to meet.'
'Not so fast, boy!'- Matthew's laughter was evil... full of resentment.
'Don't play dirty games. You want money, I'm ready.'
'You want to see your sister alive, right?'
My whole body tensed, I wanted to kill Matthew and make him pay for everything.
'Tomorrow at eight pm, be ready.'
'Where?'
'I'll call you fifteen minutes before the meeting to tell you the place.'
'I want to hear her voice.'
'And no police, you know? See you tomorrow.'
I couldn't even hear Emma's voice or tell that I loved her... that everything would be okay.
'Do you think we should call the police?'- Jace was afraid, he couldn't do it alone.
'No, not now. We'll save her first.'
The hours passed slowly, I walked back and forth nervously. I couldn't realize what was happening. When I met Emma for the first time, my life made ​​sense. Her smile was the light in my day, her voice made ​​me continue to love her. What happened then? Suddenly everything went in the wrong direction... like someone didn't want us to be together. Despite all this- she was still mine, and I kept loving her.
I was counting the hours and minutes. Jace didn't speak a word the whole time, he got up from the couch and went to his room. After a few minutes he returned, holding something in his hand.
'Here, this will help us... maybe.'-He handed me a black gun.
I had never used weapons. I was scared at the thought of holding something like that.
'I... I can't.'- I pushed it away because I didn't want to take it.
'It's your choice, but I'll use it ... if something bad happens. I don't care about the consequences.'
Now Jace was the brave one.
His phone vibrated and both met eyes. He went to it and took it in hand.
'Message from Matthew. He wrote the address.'
'We have to go now!'
Both left the apartment quickly. I handed him the envelope with the money and took a deep breath.
'We'll do it, Harry. We'll save her.'
He tried to calm me down, but nothing could do at this point. I held the steering wheel and drove to the place.
We found ourselves in front of an old building that was almost demolished. I stopped the car, but none of us got out.
His phone vibrated again.
'Come inside, we don't bite.'- He read aloud the message from Matthew.


Emma's POV
I felt terrible and didn't have the strength to keep my eyes open. They took every drop of energy from me. I hadn't eaten for two days, my whole body ached.
'Hello, Emma.'
'What do you want?'
'We have guests. Your brother will be here any minute, but the big surprise is that your lover is with him.'
Harry was here with Jace. The hope reappeared, my heart started pounding at the thought of seeing Harry.
'Don't rejoice so much, little.' - Matthew stroked my cheek and smiled creepy. - 'Go to meet our guests, Eric.'
When they entered the warehouse and I met Harry's eyes, my tears started to stream down my face. He ran to me, but Matthew stopped him.
'Where are you going, boy?'
'A deal is a deal, Matthew. We bring you the money, but you have to release Emma.'
'Let me see the money first.'
Jace handed an envelope to Matthew, but when he opened it - he began to laugh.
'You are you kidding me!?'
Both looked at him with surprise.
'What?'- Harry asked, meeting my eyes again.
'There are ten thousand.'
'And I owe you ten thousand.'- Jace said and approached, releasing me.
'Nope, I've waited for a whole month.'
'Let us go and I'll give you anything you want.'- Harry offered to Matthew, coming towards me.
His touch was my rescue, I just wanted to go home and be back in his arms. Harry helped me to stand up because I had no strength to do it by myself. He wrapped his arms around my waist, holding me tight.
'I disagree.'
Harry looked at Jace, it seemed like they had a plan, but it was anticipated by my kidnappers.
'You won't escape so easily.'- Matthew smirked at Eric and David.-'Move away from Emma.'
He told Harry to leave me to sit back on the chair.
'Look, Matthew. I will give you all the money you want.'
'I said move away from her!'- He put a gun to Harry.
I felt his body tensed, it was filled with so much anger, but also fear.
Everything happened so fast, like we were in an action movie. Harry attacked Matthew and the gun fell near my chair, but I couldn't get it. Both began to beat each other, like animals in struggle for survival. Across the warehouse Jace did the same, he prevailed over Eric. The bloody scene was horrifying, I prayed to be over soon. I prayed to get out of this place.
A shot, and then another. I closed my eyes, afraid to find out who was the victim. His shout was so familiar and at this moment I felt like losing part of myself.
