Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

"Mason," I called while adjusting the gun I'd taken. "Send me the location. I'll go to Sapphire first. I'll take a different route."

It wouldn't be easy to leave this place together. The hotel was large, and whoever orchestrated this clearly planned everything. This person wanted to toy with us, not kill us. But I don't have time for games.

"Alright," he replied. "We'll create a diversion."

On cue, I ran in a different direction. I made sure to move to areas without CCTV cameras, making each step calculated and careful.

I had to save my girl. Every second was dangerous as long as I wasn't by her side.

I stopped and hid behind a wall when I heard my phone beep. Mason had sent me Sapphire's location.

He'd placed a tracker on her phone, something I hadn't done because I trusted her to handle things on her own.

I was about to put my phone away when I saw a message from an unknown number.

[Now's the time to prove that you love her, no matter what you may find out.]

That was the message, and it contained a video attached to it.

SAPPHIRE

"Do you remember what I told you, Titania? She'll come here on her own." Silver looked at me, holding a gun in his right hand.

His glare was sharp, mocking me for standing before him.

Anger surged through me, and I knew it was showing in my eyes, but what did I expect? He's heartless.

We were now in an abandoned warehouse where one of his men had taken me. Silver was there, waiting for me, playing with the gun in his hand.

His hands were covered in blood, and he looked pleased as he stared at it. It sent shivers down my spine. He looked like a bloodthirsty criminal, and from what I could see, he wanted even more blood.

I didn't know if he was craving mine.

"Where's my mom?" I demanded, my voice tense. "Is that her blood?"

"Chill, my dear. I'm right here in front of you, so why not focus on me first?" He wiped the edge of his gun. "And no, it's not her blood. It's Randall's. I just returned the favor for what he did to me before. He fucking beat me to death."

I blinked twice, shaken by the darkness in his voice. He was crazy. Seeing all the blood on his hands, I couldn't imagine what he had done to my dad.

Silver Coleman, the guy I once thought was kind, was just another evil beast.

"Welcome to my den, Sapphire Jade," he said, pointing his right hand toward the ceiling.

I flinched when he pulled the trigger, filling the room with the sound of the gun.

"I was right. You'd beg to come here, and that was good. How was my man? Did he hurt you?" he asked as if concerned, but I knew he wasn't.

He fucking kidnapped my mom and brought her here by force. He knew I wouldn't come if she wasn't involved. He was a blackmailer, and I fell for it.

"I'll make sure that if you don't come here, the only thing waiting for you at home will be a corpse," Silver said on the phone earlier. "You have two options. Run and hide, and forget about your parents, or you can come here, and we can talk things out."

But I activated my tracker. I hoped they'd be able to locate me. Everyone's lives were at stake; mine, my mom, and my child...Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Sapphire?!"

I snapped back to reality when I heard my mom's voice. She was still alive. I'd make sure we got out of here alive.

"Mom!"

I took a step forward, but suddenly, someone moved in front of me. One of Silver's men.

"Move, or I'll break your bones," I ordered firmly, but he just sneered.

So, I kicked the gun out of his hand and kicked his groin. He fell to his knees, clutching himself in pain.

That's one of my tactics. I might not know how to fight well, but I know how to hurt.

"Never underestimate your opponent," I said, preparing to kick him in the groin again, but he grabbed my leg with both hands.

I almost lost my balance when he lifted me by my leg, both my feet now off the ground, but I used this to my advantage.

"Fucker," I muttered as I kicked his neck, causing him to release me and groan in pain.

The neck was a vital point in fighting; Simon had taught me that. Luckily, he was still alive, only paralyzed.

I didn't waste any time. I quickly ran toward the place where I'd heard my mom's voice, but I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw Silver there. His gun was pointed at my mom, who was tied on the chair. On the other side, I saw Randall lying unconscious on the floor, unconscious. My whole body went cold.

"Mom..." I whispered, grabbing onto a nearby table as my knees weakened.

"Nice move you had earlier, but not so fast, Sapphire Jade." He cocked the gun before pressing it against my mom's temple again.

I closed my eyes, my heart breaking at every sob from my mom.

"Before you talk to her, talk to me first." He pointed his gun at a chair near me.

Clenching my fists, I sat on the chair. One of his men came over and tied both my hands to the armchair. The ropes were tight, almost cutting off the circulation in my wrists, but I ignored the pain.

That's when I noticed several of his men guarding us. He wasn't alone.

ed you here, Ash. Please, save me.

"What do you want from me?" I asked.

"Nothing. I just want to talk with you." He sat in front of me, still holding his gun. "I have two options in mind. You can choose one or two."

"Or," I responded sarcastically.

In his frustration, he pointed the gun at me. I was surprised but didn't show it. My grip on the armchair tightened as I noticed his facial expression change.

"Don't fucking play with me, Sapphire. You won't like what I'll do," he warned.

"I haven't liked anything you've done from the beginning, Mr. Coleman," I replied.

"Point taken." He smirked as he approached me, leaving my mom behind with his guard. "You're my son's girlfriend and carrying my grandchild. So, I'll give you a chance to live. Pledge your loyalty to the Coleman mafia, and I'll spare your life."
