Love Wins Over Lust novel Chapter 22

Aurora felt a kind of uneasiness around her. "Susan, can we use the washroom? I feel dirty."

"What?"

"Please, come with me."

They were walking towards the washroom when Liam asked her where they were going. "I want to pee really badly and Aurora needs to clean herself."

Liam sighed. "Let's go…"

"I am happy to see you being so attentive Liam but it's a women's washroom. It means no man is allowed and the washroom is just at the corner. I hope you won't mind waiting here till we come back, would you?"

Liam glanced at Aurora who was looking down. "Come soon, I will be waiting here."

Aurora sighed in relief when he didn't follow them. Once they were in the washroom, Susan asked if she was fine, Aurora nodded, she knew if she told the truth Susan would go berserk on Liam. She didn't want that, not yet.

"I need to use the washroom," saying that she went to one of the lavatories there.

Susan was touching-up her make when a brunette entered the washroom. They both smiled at each other and the girl stood next to Susan who continued her makeup but suddenly she felt something piercing her hand.

"What…" before she could speak further her vision turned dark and she fell on the floor.

Aurora was crying silently but gasped when she heard a knock on the door. She cleaned her face, straightened her clothes and opened the door.

When she got out no one was there. She walked towards the mirror to clean her face and was stunned to see Susan on the floor. "Susie…" she tried to scream but a hand clamped her mouth and the voice came out jumbled.

Aurora tried to get free but couldn't. "Leave me…" she suffered against the hand of.the intruder and then she felt a needle piercing her neck. She hissed in pain and then darkness swam in her vision.

Liam waited for about ten minutes for Aurora. His eyes were fixed in the direction of the washroom. He frowned when they still didn't came out, Liam decided to check what was taking her so long. When he was walking towards the washroom a pregnant woman bumped into him.

"Ohh!" She moaned, clutching her belly. "Oh my God!" She cried.

"You should have watched where you are going." He snapped at her, "let me help you."

The woman nodded and Liam took her to the nearby sitting space. "Thank you sir," she murmured. Liam didn't pay attention to her and walked towards the washroom. He looked around but Aurora or Susan was nowhere to be found.

It's been more than twenty five minutes now. An unknown fear clutched his heart and not caring about anything he barged inside the washroom and was stunned to find Susan on the floor. Unconscious.

His heart stopped beating for a moment. "Aurora!" He yelled and searched for his wife in every cubicle there but she was nowhere to be found.

Liam kicked the wooden door and screamed in anger. He ran outside and looked around but everything was normal. He didn't wait for a single second before calling his man and ordering them to search every single street nearby the mall. The next person he called was his father and told him everything.

Liam's mind went wild thinking about the possibilities of Aurora being kidnapped. He went inside and tried to wake Susan. She was his last hope but she was heavily drugged.

Liam called Ralph. "If you called to talk…"

"I don't have time, Ralph. Come to the city mall, someone kidnapped Aurora and drugged her friend. Come here ASAP!"

Liam was about to end the call but his eyes went to paper tucked in Susan's hand. "I got your wife, Liam Knight and now I am going to destroy everything your father built and that starts with destroying you. Regards from your number one enemy, The masked man."

A volcano of rage burst inside his mind. "Liam…"

He heard Ralph's voice from the other end. But Liam's mind couldn't break the darkness he went into after reading the note. The man who had coated him hundreds of millions till now had kidnapped his wife, the woman Liam loves and he couldn't stop him. He would have forgiven him for his monetary lost but now, the man had made it personal with Liam and now he would get the most inventive death, Liam could come up with.

Ralph ended the call and reached the mall as soon as he could. Every single made man was on high alert. Ralph was worried about Susan too. He felt guilty for the way he treated her. She didn't deserved anything he did to her.

He saw an ambulance taking off from there. He called his brother who accepted the call at first ring. "Where are you?"

"I am checking the footage of cameras. Come here."

Liam checked every single footage of the last two hours. He punched his head in anger when he saw a brunette entering the washroom and coming out with another girl with blonde hair.

"Where has she gone?" He demanded when the clip ended. "Sir, two cameras at the back of the mall went off suddenly a few hours ago."

Liam was enraged. "What do you mean went off! I want the footage if the area, now," He snarled. Ralph came there and held Liam's shoulder before he could pull out his gun and kill the innocents.

"Liam, our men will handle here, we need to check out the means to find Aurora. Who could have kidnapped her?"

"The masked man," he gritted out handing him the more he found in Susan's hand.

Ralph's eyes widened. "Hell!"

For the first time in his life, Liam Knight was scared of losing someone. He was scared of losing Aurora.

"I can't lose her. I will not lose her," he muttered under his breath. He was losing his patience with every single second.
