Third Person POV
Jack's vision was blurry when he got his consciousness back. His head was pounding and hurting.
He groaned and felt something wet on his head. He touched it and hissed in pain.
He glanced at his hand and saw red liquid with blurred eyes. He blinked his eyes again and tried to open it.
"He is waking up." He heard a distant voice.
He tried to remember what happened with him and he got flashbacks of the events which landed him here.
But the question is where. He heard the sound of someone talking near him but he didn't know what they were talking about.
He felt someone waking him up by slapping his cheek. He groaned and with all his power turned his gaze toward the person.
It was an unknown person. He didn't meet him ever in his life or even if he did, he couldn't remember.
"Wake up Jack. We have a lot of surprises for you." The person spoke rudely.
"Who are you?" He rasped
His throat was parched and he felt a need to close his eyes again and sleep for some time.
There was definitely something wrong with him. Because he wouldn't do that when his family was in danger.
Family. That word forced him to gain his strength to get on his knees. He rubbed his chest to ease the pain in his heart.
"I am your elder brother Maxim, who is going to be the leader after your death" Maxim spoke excitedly.
"Where is my family?" Jack asked him tiredly
"I'll tell you, my son, about your family." Jack heard the voice which he didn't hear in 2 years.
He couldn't forget that sound. He was the one who had given him enough nightmares to last long in this life.
Jack turned around and saw his father for the first time in 2 years. The last memory of him was when he shot him.
His father's eye was covered with an eye patch and the other one was filled with darkness.
"Father," Jack mumbled
Arnold was sitting in the chair, thinking himself as a king. They were back to the two-story building where Jack came to find Charlotte.
He stood up from the chair and walked toward Jack, who was measuring his father's every move.
"Glad to see you sane, Jack. You have become what I didn't want you to become." Arnold spoke with a fake sad look
"Where is my family?" Jack asked him.
His head was spinning and he felt something flowing out of his nose. He touched it and saw that it was blood.
What have they done with him? He looked at his father and saw him smiling widely.
"What have you done with me? What's happening with me?" He asked them
Arnold raised his hand in surrender and said "Why would you think that Jack. I am your father."
He was looking innocent like a lion who was trapping his prey in his innocence.
"I know you. What have you given me?" He asked him while gripping his collar in his hand.
Arnold raised his eyebrow and removed Jack's hands from his shirt and gave him a push.
Jack stumbled a little and then looked at his father and waited for him to tell him.
"Nothing you hadn't taken before. Or maybe I have given you some extra drug which perhaps results in Overdose." Arnold cocked his head to the side and smirked.
Jack wasn't shocked. He knew the level of his father. He could stoop as low as he wanted.
"Where is my family? You have problems with me right? Then leave them. They are innocent." Jack spoke harshly
"You have become a pussy, Jack. But I don't blame you. She is that good in bed that we just couldn't help ourselves. I understand." Arnold said and licked his lips.
Jack put the gun on his temple and said "I would kill you before you could touch her. Where are they?"
He could feel the abnormal beats of his heart. They are getting faster and his chance of survival is getting lesser.
But he won't die before ensuring that his family is safe from any danger and the biggest danger is his father.
"Remove it from my face. You don't want me to kill your family before time." He warned but Jack didn't remove it.
Arnold sighed and said, "Come on let's go and meet your sexy wife."
"Shut up" Jack mumbled loudly
"You wait here, Maxim." He said he opened the room which lightened up with sun rays.
"Ah, there is your beautiful wife. Isn't she looking more beautiful with these chains?" Arnold fake cheered
Jack turned his gaze toward his wife and got shocked when he saw her cages in chains.
She was sitting still and was not moving even a little. Her cheek had a purple bruise and her lips were covered with dry blood.
He walked toward her and was about to touch her when he heard her voice "Don't come near me."
He stopped in midway and whispered "Anna"
She looked at him with a surprising look that she couldn't believe that he was here.
"Don't touch me." She whispered slowly without making any moments.
"I am sorry. I couldn't save you all." Jack said while kneeling in front of her.
