Chapter 6 Chapter 6
Finding Forgiveness
Luca's POV
"Alpha, I've screwed up big time," I said to Leo after he finally picked up
his phone.
I was in the process of dragging the man that had been pointing his
gun at me to my car by the scruff of his collar. The more he resisted the
more time he was wasting and the further away that white van was
getting. This could be Ella's life in danger and I wasn't messing around.
"Get in my fucking car,â I growled at him, pausing to hold the gun to his
head.
After that, he went easily.
"Who are you talking to? Are you with Ella?" Leo asked.
"That's the thing," I said opening the door to the passenger seat of my
car and bundling the man in. "I was but now I'm not. Someone's taking
her."
"Someone?" he asked. "Where are you?"
"It's where we were," I told him as I got into the driver's seat and
immediately started the engine and began driving the same direction
as the white van did.
"For God's sake, Luca. Just spit it out. Who has taken my mate!?" he
growled.
"Andrea Martinez," I said, uttering the name of the man otherwise
known as âthe bossâ.
There was a pause on Leo's end of the line for over five seconds.
"How the fuck did Andrea Martinez get a hold on my mate?" he said
slowly and deeply.
"I had to collect this month's shipment and things went tits up from
then on,â I said. "You don't want the details. What's important is that
Ella is in danger.â
"Correct me if I'm wrong Luca but didn't I tell you not to even mention
a word of what you do in Mexico to her? And then you take her with
you?!" he replied.
"Yes, I know. I am sorry and you can kill me later but for now, can we
just focus on getting her back?" I asked.
He didn't say anything which I took as a yes.
"I've captured one of the men that ambushed us but apart from that
nothing. All he has told me is that they are taking her to Martinez but I
have no idea where he is based or where to even begin looking.â
"Then get the information out of him," Leo growled
"He doesn't speak English and my Spanish is limited to say the very
least,â I replied.
"Put me on speaker," he ordered.
Leo proceeded to speak to the man in Spanish. Not only did he sound
perfectly fluent but as he spoke, the man became more and more
sweaty and anxious.
It wasn't long until he was replying to everything Leo asked
immediately without any sort of reluctance.
"Drive to Mexico and find a man named Pedro Hernandez. He's
Martinez's driver and the only one other than himself that knows where
he is located. I'll meet you there and that man with you can tell you
nothing more. He's just a pawn," Leo told me before hanging up.
I brought the car to a halt and leant over the poor guy to open the
door. I then ushered him out and drove away leaving him on the side of
the road in a hot, quivering mess with nothing more than an adios. I
could have taken my anger out on him but as Leo said, he's just a pawn
and seemed to have got what he deserved from just having to face
speaking to Alpha Loren himself.
