Sydney's POV
I get into my private jet and wait impatiently for take off. What's taking long? I wonder two minutes later. A minute wasted is a minute of my love in danger. I tap the arm rest for a minute before I stand and storm to the cockpit.
"Why are we still on the fucking land?" I ask and the pilot who's pushing the buttons jumps in his seat.
"You have to calm down. We've already started the take off process and you should be buckled up sir." Leila, the co-pilot says. I take in a deep breath and try to release my frustrations then huff and go back to my seat. I find Joey seated and typing something.
"We have a problem sir. It seems Luke is captured by your brother." Joey says cautiously. I rub the bridge of my nose in frustration. Why are all these happening right now?
"What about my wife?" I ask.
"Her mother was found with a bullet in her left arm. Candice and Mrs Kings were nowhere to be found." My blood boils instantly. "Some men are following the tracker in her." Joey adds meekly.
"AND YOU JUST DECIDE TO TELL ME THIS NOW?" Joey flinches but I don't care. An emotion I haven't felt for a long time envelopes me. An emotion I'm feeling for the second time since Isabella came into my life. Fear.
It's time to end this once and for all.
"It's a possibility the people who have Luke have Mrs Kings too." Joey says. How is she doing right now? Is she scared too like I am? I bet she's giving those bastards a hard time. My lips try to curve into a smile but I fight hard against them. I'll smile when I have my family back into my arms.
One hour and thirty minutes later I tell my driver I don't need his services. Joey gets into the car and writes the address to the coordinates sent to him by Marcus.
I drive as first as I can but I feel like we're not fast enough.
"Sir, if we go any faster we might not be able to save Mrs Kings. We'll end up in hospital." Joey says and for the first time I hear a hint of worry lace his voice.
"Don't fucking tell me what to do when my wife needs me." I snap and step on the gas. I love driving fast but for the first time I don't enjoy it. I take a sharp turn when the navigation tells me so making us sway. The car moves from the road and I notice I can't control it. I try to press on the brake pedal but nothing. I need to get to Isabella.
With that thought I try once again. I see we're heading towards a tree and this could kill us. I steer the wheels to my side and move it in a way the tree could stop the car without much damage to us.
*********
"Sir." I hear a voice from far. Everything starts coming into focus and I notice Joey on my side. I look around and find I'm on the ground on some field and the car looks a mess.
"Sir." Joey calls again and I look at him.
"Hmm."
"I've called some men to pick us up. They should be here any minute now." Joey explains.
'Was I driving that fast that I lost control?' I wonder. But I have to get to Isabella. Isabella.
"Let's get going. We need to help Izzy." I wince as I get up.
"You're hurt. Your head is bleeding." Joey says as he opens a first aid kit. "Let me clean it up, sir." I shake my head no but immediately regret.
"I think I should handle this sir. You might have a concussion. You got the biggest hit." Joey says worry filled in his voice. I look at him and his face shows the same emotions. What happened to him?
"No. Izzy needs me. I'll help her and I'll rest when she's safe in my arms."
