Chapter 333: Chapter 333

Abi and Abram returned from the festival’s activities late into the night and entered their room. The festival was as much a social event as it was a business venture. Abi was mainly in charge of the family businesses as she was a shrewd businesswoman.

She was mostly on top of each item and made advantageous decisions for the family; however, as her daughter’s obsession with Ian got out of hand, Abi noticed that many things had also gotten out of hand.

However, Abi was a mother who had promised to go to the ends of the world for her daughter, and she knew that given a chance, she would never change a single decision that she had made for her daughter’s happiness.

Their day had also included such tasks, and they were exhausted when they returned.

She and her husband had a rare intimate night to crown a very fruitful day, and they were both in a great mood.

"Are you happy?" Abram asked Abi as she lay in his arms with their duvet around their naked bodies. He brushed her hair from her face and lightly kissed it.

"Of course I am! Why would you ask such a stupid question?"

Abram smiled. He had long been used to his wife’s temper.

"I’m going to miss her!" To this, Abi lowered her voice into a soft whisper,

"I’ll miss her too! She is the culmination of our love, and I will do anything to protect her, even if it’s from her own self."

They had finally secured a way for Brianna to leave the island, hence their pleasant mood.

’Brianna will finally be away from Ian’s grasp!’ Abi thought as her unsettled heart, which had been raging for days, had finally calmed down.

Even though that meant that Brianna would miss the upcoming banquet, Abi knew that Brianna did not have to be there for the engagement to be finalized and that engagement was all that could save Brianna from Ian’s grasp.

"You’re amazing wifeee! I have no idea how you managed to pull that one off."

"It took a little negotiation as the other person is Ian, but nothing is too hard for your wife to handle!"

"Ikr!" Abram landed a deep kiss on his wife, and she welcomed it.

"Let’s catch some sleep. We must send Brianna there at dawn when it is still dark out."

"Should we go check on her?"

"Let’s just sleep for now and take her there tomorrow. She is not going to be happy about this, so let’s spare ourselves some tantrums."

"At my Queen’s service!"

Abra said and covered themselves with the duvet.

The two slept very late, barely a few hours, but they were up at the crack of dawn. They hurriedly dressed and went up to Brianna’s door, but Abi was the first to frown. Her anger flared up at the sight of the two sleeping at the door.

The two women who were supposed to guard the door were dead asleep, slumped at awkward angles on the floor.

It never occurred to Abi at that moment that no one would sleep on the job in that way. She stormed up to them and kicked them hard, but none of them budged.

"Get UP! WHAT ARE TWO DOING!"

The angry roar woke up most of the workers.

Abram looked at them and then squatted by one and tested her pulse. He was calm and precise as if this had been done several times prior.

"What are you doing-"

Abi’s realization dawned, and she rushed over the unconscious forms and into Brianna’s room, but her daughter was nowhere to be found. Her worst fears had come true!

The room was in shambles—a state that was only when her daughter was going through clothes.

’How had no one seen this? When did she leave? Who helped her? Who dared to do that under her nose?’ Many questions vied for attention in Abi’s shocked mind.

Brianna’s wardrobe had been emptied onto her bed and the floor.

’She couldn’t have,’ Abi whispered, but the evidence was all there. Abi knew her daughter enough to know that she may have walked out on her own, but she still did not want to accept it. Brianna had most likely exited herself ... with some help.

Abi did not understand why her daughter was so bent on walking in the scorching flames on her own. Did she not understand the gravity of her actions?

Abi stormed into the bathroom and fetched a large pitcher of water. She poured the cold water over the two, who were still soundly asleep by the door, but they remained asleep.

Abi’s anger swelled with each passing moment and then she screamed,

Abram straightened and entered his study, coming out with two syringes in a few moments. He injected the two women, and in a few seconds, they were up, gasping for air as if they had been shocked back to life.

They continued taking in large gulps of air, trying to still their hearts from all the adrenaline coursing through their veins. They were obviously disoriented, but Abram did not give them time to adjust their mental state!

"I’m going to ask you only once!"

Abram was like a different person. They all looked up to him as the saner person in the family of the Mush, but at that moment, he was like the devil incarnate himself.

"What happened here yesterday?"

"Ye-ster-day? I- Don’t – I-"

Abram twisted her neck, and the woman slumped back down, her head in an awkward angle.

That was enough to wake the second up and out of her stupor. She shook her groggy head, trying to understand what was going on and what answers her master was looking for. It did not take her long to piece a few things together, especially peeping into the empty room behind her. She quickly tried to talk her way through...

"I- I’m sorry, sir. I don’t know what you are talking about. I swear I never sleep on the job. I don’t know what has happened and why you are asking .... If... this is about the little Miss... then please believe that I don’t know what has happened. I swear!"

The woman said all this in less than a second, hoping that her words would go across and she would be spared.

"Abram, we need her alive to understand what has happened here... leave her live."

Abram looked at his wife, pushed the remaining female guard into Brianna’s room, and locked the door. The woman let out a huge sigh and slumped back down.

Abram straightened and followed his wife into their study to review the CCTV footage of their home.

The two suspected foul play and expected the footage to be tampered with, but nothing showed that case.

They reviewed it and saw Brianna slip out of the mansion unaided. Their gazes followed her as she slipped out of her room, sidestepping the women who seemed to have just fallen at the same time. Brianna kept looking around as she went downstairs, into the kitchen, and out their backdoor, where a taxi seemed to have been waiting for her.

The two shared a look. Nothing made sense. Brianna never entered their kitchen, and they even doubted if Brianna knew where the service entrance of their mansion was. They were seeing everything, but the two did not believe a thing.

They checked and re-checked the CCTV but found no signs of tampering.

Abram was livid! This Abram was foreign to the household, but Abi was well aware of her husband’s many sides. He only showed his doting side to his wife and daughter.

"She’ll come back!" Abi said it but did not even believe her own words.

All the house personnel were brutally interrogated, but no one knew anything. It was as if Brianna had vanished out of the place. All staff were accounted for, and none were missing. Abi was convinced that if someone had aided Brianna in going out, they would never have the guts to stay back because of what she would do to them.

Abi utilized her extensive network to try to find Brianna, but it seemed as if Brianna had disappeared from the face of the island after she left her home.

It would be days before they found her used clothes, which a homeless person had picked up, but Brianna was just gone!

Brianna, on the other hand, woke up in the arms of three naked men in a private room. Her head hurt, and most importantly, her whole body hurt.

"Ahhhhh!!!! Who are you? What did you do to me!" Brianna screamed in anger.

She had treasured her chastity for Ian, but how did she end up there?

One man got up and picked his ears,

"Why are you so loud in the morning when you kept us up most of the night?"

"Me? You three took advantage of me! AHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"

Brianna scrambled from them, holding the only sheet on the bed against herself.

The loud sounds stopped Brianna, who had her mouth open. On a small screen by the bed, It showed her totally ’enjoying’ herself with the men. In fact, it looked as if she was the one taking advantage of them. The Brianna on that screen was alien to her. She gasped.

"What did you do? Why am I like that?"

Brianna shrunk back just as the events of the previous day started coming back.

"I-I-an... what did he do?" Ian’s name felt heavy on her tongue, and she started shivering in fear as waves of memories came rushing back to her. The men, whose task was done, got up one after the other, dressing up.

"You were wonderful, sweety! We’ll be back!"

The implications of their words did not yet dawn on her. Brianna had no idea where she was, but he was disgusted with herself. She scrambled off the bed when they had left and rushed to look for a bathroom, but there was none in the room.

Just then, the door pushed open, and she turned around quickly, losing her balance. This was how the new person found her when she entered the room.

Brianna’s skin was glowing. Bite and red marks were all over her and no place had been left untouched.

"Well.... well... well.... I never knew that I would ever find you here... Miss Brianna..."

"Who are you?" Brianna pulled the light sheets back onto her body and tried to stand up. She didn’t manage to do that but winced instead. She had never had a man but why did she have to entertain three men in one night? Wasn’t she supposed to be with Ian? Her thoughts froze at that. Her heart thumped. At that moment, Brianna did not want to hear of the name, Ian! He was a devil in disguise! How could he?

"You don’t even have the decency to know me?" The girl asked,

"I’ll pay you handsomely if you make a call to my parents- t-"

"Hahahahaha..... She thinks that she is going back home? What a poor thing!"

"WHAT? What do you mean by that?"

"You’ll find out soon enough, young Mistress."
