Third person POV

"If y'all don't find out where the hell they at in 2.5 seconds I'm killin all y'all" Izzy yells out to the people scrambling trying to find his family. He looks down to his phone to see his mother calling only to let it ring. Sharon did not know that Ashley was missing and he wanted to keep it that way. He felt that the less who knew, the less he would have to talk about it and could focus on finding him.

It's been a little over three weeks in total since they've been gone and Izzy has barely gotten any sleep. He has been determined to get them back. In result he has been a complete ass hole to everyone else. Snapping on anyone who says anything to him and overall rude he even shot one of Alexeis men for mumbling "when's lunch" in Russian.

"Come Israel... I can handle this go rest" Alexei says understanding Izzys frustration. He had remembered trying to find Aleks mother but coming up short handed.

"Naa I'm good" he says tryin to move past the large man

"That wasn't a question" Alexei says as that stare at each other. Izzy sucks his teeth before turning around and hearing a knock on the door. Being that it is a glass door you can see right through it.

"Oh bitch I been waiting on you" Bri says from behind Izzy as she swiftly moves around him tying her hair up. She snatches the door open and jumps on a surprised Zonnique knocking her to the ground. Zonnique try's to fight back but she has no chance as Bri begins to continuously punch her face.

Alek notices some noise coming from the front of the house and drops what he is doing and runs to the front to see Bri beating the poor girl up and Izzy standing there lighting a blunt.

"Bri will kill her!" Alek says not recognizing who Bri is beating up.

"Oh well." Izzy says shrugging his shoulders before pulling from the weed. With the help of two other men Alek was able to get Bri off of the unconscious girl.

"Take her ass to the room" Izzy says before turning back into the house and going upstairs. He put out the blunt before reaching the top of the stairs in respect for Ashley. She didn't even like him smoking in the house let alone upstairs near their rooms. He walks into Aidens room before picking up the photo of him and Ashley at the baby shower. He sits it back down and takes a seat in the chair looking over the clean room.

Ashley POV

Bitch I'm growing fast. You can tell that I am pregnant and idk how it happened so fast. When I was pregnant with Aiden I didn't get big until my last trimester but this baby isn't wasting time. I'm not huge yet but if someone saw me they would definitely know I was pregnant with a loose shirt on.

I am currently sitting at the dining room table quietly as the cooks serve breakfast. Cash has been making Aiden and I eat almost every meal together. That is almost every meal I can keep down. I've been trying to stay on his good side for the most part. That includes just biting my tongue mostly. I just listen to him talk trying to gain some trust but I know he doesn't trust me at all. Due to his very short temper I am always walking on eggshells.

"Ashley you look nice...why aren't you eating" he says referring to my outfit. He has also been having someone dress me to his standards which mainly include heels and classy clothes even though I'm stuck in the house. Yesterday he has someone come and do my nails and toes how he wanted and claimed it was a "reward". He claimed its to "train" me so when I can go out the house with him.

"I'm just not hungry" I say looking down at my large plate pushing food around. Aiden babbles beside me as one of the servants feeds him baby food. I insisted on doing it two weeks ago and got slapped. I've been trying to ease him off of breast feeding because I've been really sore and I dont need two babies breast feeding at the same time.

"Well baby girl has to eat" I roll my eyes as cash says referring to my baby. He also swears that the baby is a girl. I really don't care what the gender is but deep down I hope it's a boy in spite of what Cash thinks. "Ashley I have some very important people coming in next week. You need to be on your best behavior and don't speak unless you are spoken too. You do not say more than is needed or you know what'll happen" I look down to my freshly manicured nails. "Understood?" He asks me as I just ignore him rubbing my stomach. I hear his chair scoot back fast and heavy feet growing closer to me. My head is snapped up my his hand gripping my chin tightly and forcing me to look at him.

"Do you understand me?" He says squeezing my chin tighter.

"Yes" I yelp out in pain as he continues to hold It before pushing it away. I turn my head away placing my hand onto my jaw feeling it sting.

"You know Ashley... you really test me. I'm trying to be patient with you but time is ticking..." he stands over me before beginning to laugh. I know I shouldn't be but I have never held fear for anyone like I do now. "Take her dumb ass upstairs. I'm tired of seeing this weak bitch I got shit to handle." He says as I am snatched up from my chair by two men who force me to walk. As I am pushed in the room, the servant who fed Aiden sits him down in the crib before quickly exiting as the lock the door behind them. These past few weeks have been the toughest times I have ever been through.

I break down into tears as I sit down on the bed. From being depressed to being constantly abused it's draining.

I dry up my tears and lay out Aidens tummy mat onto the floor. I try to occupy myself with him and his development so I don't fall into darkness and for the sake of the new baby. He began crawling last week and as happy as I am I wish Izzy could be with us to see his growth. His first tooth is almost in.

After sitting Aiden down I go ahead and take off these uncomfortable heels and massage my swollen feet. This baby is nothing like Aiden blowing me up

Like a bowling ball n shit.

I am cut out of my thought as I feel small hands on my legs. I look down and smile seeing that Aiden crawled over to me.

"Mmmm" I hear Aiden begin to say. He has been babbling for a while now and I'm trying to get him to say something.

"You wanna say mama, bubby? Mama..." I try to encourage him as he continues to babble.

"Mm...d-dada" he smiles looking up to me. I freeze in my actions since I wasn't expecting him to actually say anything just yet. I feel a tear fall down my cheek before I pick Aiden, placing him on my chest.

"I miss him too bubby. We gone get home soon" I kiss his cheek as he smiles. I send one of many prayers to god as I am holding him. We spent pretty much the rest of the day in the room. We even ate lunch and dinner in there. I was actually kinda relieved that I didn't have to see Cash for the rest of the day. Aiden has gotten used to being in the room with me most of the time which is sad. He is mostly under me unless cash comes and he pretty much hogs Aiden like he is his child. As much as I want to say something I feel as though that'll really set him off.

By the time the evening came I got Aiden to sleep and took me a nice long shower. I placed a matching silk pajama short set before going back into the room. As I beganto lotion my stomach to prevent any scaring the door is pushed open causing me to turn around. I watch as Cash closes the door not acknowledging my presence and begins to untie his tie placing it on the dresser and unbutton his shirt.

I didn't know what the do in that moment. Cash has never actually stayed the night in this room so I was confused. He was getting undressed as if he was getting ready for bed. after taking off his dress shirt he went into the bathroom closing the door. I sat at the bottom of the bed as I heard the shower turn on. What the hell is happening?

I begin to panic as I hear the shower turn off. I make sure Aiden is okay before sitting back on the bed. I watch as he comes out in some pajama pants and a white tee shirt on. Once again he doesn't say anything to me as he climbs into the bed.

"I ain't in the mood for your bullshit Ashley" he says to me "come lay down."

I slowly get up from where I am sitting and move closer me the opposite side of the bed. I slowly lay down as far as possible away from Cash and cover myself up. That is until he pulls me closer to him. So close that my I can feel his hard partner on my lower back. I try to squeeze away but he holds me tighter and my arms cross so I can't move them.

"You're so beautiful Ashley" he mumbles in my ear as his grip doesn't loosen.

"Please" I beg as I feel his free hand slide up slowly to my breast.

"So gorgeous" he peaks my shoulder blade as I try to get out of his hold that only got tighter.

"P-please cash" I begin to feel his hand toy with the waist band of my shorts. I had a thought to try and kick him but even if I did that'll be my ass.

"I love to hear you beg" I begin to sob feeling his hand toy with my underwear. I was in shock. I couldn't comprehend what was happening. I didn't know what to do. No matter what I did he would have his way. If I were to scream that'll do nothing but wake Aiden, if I were to try and hit him he probably would have someone come hold me down.

"Look at that...you want me" he says as he begins to feel my core. It was happening so fast. My mind was racing and I couldn't control my body even though I didn't want to. I tired to release from his hold again but that only caused him to restrain me tighter and quicken the pace of his fingers. "Stop fighting me" he whispers kissing my neck. This continued for what felt like forever.

"Ooo you done made a mess all over my hand" he says releasing me and rolling over. I was stuck. I couldn't move as I heard the door close signaling that he had left out the room.

I am disgusted with myself. I begin to sob again covering my mouth so I can't be heard. I am afraid that if he heard me he'd be upset and come back.

I go over to the crib and pick up a sleeping Aiden. I bring him over to the bed and hold him as close to me as possible. I'm not sure if I just wanted to or I brung him on the bed to ensure Cash wouldn't come back for more.

But for the remainder of the night I was up. Thinking about everything that was happening that lead up to this. Cash was trying to break me.

And it was working.

Izzy POV

I walk into the dark warehouse preparing for whatever I'm about to walk into. As I get closer I see a beat up Zonnique knocked out sitting in a chair with rope around her.

"Wake her ass up" I signal to them as I stand in the corner. I watch as she helps as she is woken up by cold water and begins to panic. She looks

Around until her eyes meet mine and I walk in closer to her. I snatch the duck tape from her mouth before allowing her to talk.

"Oh baby what am I doing here. I-I just came to see you a-and she jumped on me" I cut her off.

"Shut up." I says firmly As she gulps.

"Where are they?" I ask getting no reply. I watch as she diverts her eyes to the ground. I let go a deep breath and signal two men to water board her. Ian about to put my hands on her but I know she knows where they are at. And knowing her it ain't gone take much to get it out of her. "You ready to tell me?" I ask as she stays quiet. I shrug my shoulders before they begin to water board her again. After a few times she is screaming. I grow impatient with her taking her time.

"OKAY OKAY. Please just stop!" She yells as she tries to catch her breath. Damn finally. Took longer than I expected it too

"You wasting time." I look at my watch that Ashley brought me noticing I've been here two hours.

"C-cash" she says heaving as she finishes coughing up water.

"Speak up". I say leaning against the wall.

"Cash. H-he has them" she says making my blood run cold. I look over to the other side of the room seeing Alek staring at me like he wants to kill me.

"Cash who?" I say trying to be sure

"You know who Izzy" she states

"The fuck he want from them!" I yell. This shit ain't even making sense no more.

"Ion know. Something about you always had what he wanted and you got a family which he wanted so he took it" she says nonchalantly. I look over to see Bri trying to keep Alek from walking out only to see him snatch away from her and begin cursing on Russian.

I look back to Zonnique seeing she is looking down as she coughs up more water.

"Where are they?" I ask her.

"They're at his estate... but y'all ain't gone be able to get in" she says

"Why not?"

"He has that place guarded like a fort. It's over 100 guards in the house alone..." she says

"That's nothing. I can have 500 men here by the end of the week" Alexei speaks up

"Wait" she says cutting him off. "He said something about a event he was having next week. It'll be guarded but not as much because he didn't want to scare people" she says. I nod my head before turning to Alexei.

"Get the address" I tell him as I turn to leave.

"Wait... y-you aren't taking me with you?" Zonnique whimpers as I begin to laugh.

"You really think I would do some dumb shit that that? You gotta be bat shit crazy. After all this shit really? Do you not understand what I mean when I say I DONT WANT YOU!" I raise my voice as she begins to cry. "Shut that shit up" I say before turning and leaving out. I hear her screaming for me as I leave out but I just ignore her.

As I step outside I am stopped by a punch to

My face. I touch my lip seeing blood and over to see Alek staring dead at me. Tf. That's when he came at me again but I ain't no hoe so I began throwing hits back at him. Alek a big nigga but I know how to stand my own.

"The fuck your problem" I yell at him as I slam him against the wall trying to detain him

"You. It's your fault. You're fucking friend took her" he punches me before we are being pulled apart.

"What are you doing" Alexei yells at Alek

"It's his fault!" He yells out

"SHUT UP" Alexei yells. "You can do that later. He found out where they are. Let's go" Alexei drags Alek. I walk over to my car before getting in and letting out a loud scream. Don't he know I already think this my fault. And finding out my friend is the one who got them make me feel even worse.

I start up the car and pick up my phone calling my cleaning service.

"I need the whole house cleaned and the replace everything that needs" I hang up the phone.

I'm about to bring my family home.

Any thoughts?
