The rooftop restaurant glimmered against the dark New York skyline, its crystal walls glowing like a crown above the city.

Keith’s Mercedes pulled up first, sleek and polished, catching the attention of the valet who quickly rushed to open the door.

Keith stepped out, straightening the cuffs of his black tailored suit. He scanned the entrance, noting the subtle placement of two plainclothes guards by the marble steps, Bella’s men, no doubt.

He walked into the hotel and took the elevator to the second floor.He strided towards room 34, with a slight, soft knock, he entered inside.

    “Claire, are you okay?! Where the hell are you?!” Nathan roared into the phone, his grip on the telephone tightening with every second. Static sounded from the other end as V dragged the phone from Claire’s hold. Her desperate cries could be heard which sent daggers at Nathan’s heart.“Claire?”“Listen here, we need to speak to your grandfather. If you want your sister back safe and sound, you had better listen to us and do as we say.”“You better not lay a single finger on my sister, or else you would regret stepping your feet into this world,” Nathan threatened, his eyes void of every emotion.V’s laughter sounded from the other end. “I don’t think you are in any position to threaten anyone here.
