Owned By a Greek god
Chapter 48

**** MELINA P. O. V ****

We made it to the area that Bella had specified for us. It was in a location that was distinct from the town. There was only one house in the neighborhood where we were standing. Everything was calm and serene throughout. "Have you seen anyone around here recently?" After I inquired, the brothers quickly descended the tree and ran back to the house.

"This is where they carry out their procedures and the rest of their work. This is the only possible location for them to be in, unless they made a hasty escape for their lives. The phrase "climbing down the car" was also used by Bella. "All I can do is pray that they will be all right." I turned to look at Agnes as she said.

"There is only one way to replace out," the speaker said. It is imperative that we accompany them in order to gain a better understanding of the situation. I instructed her to get out of the vehicle, but she didn't budge an inch.

"I'm not sure that I want to witness Ryan in this state. I just can't bring myself to watch him use that weapon on another person. She said while appearing to be in extreme fear.

"Agnes, I really hope you don't despise him. You have to realize that they are not who they used to be, and at this point, they depend on us more than before. I stated, and she confirmed my statement by nodding.

"I know. The thing is, it gives me the creeps, and I just can't picture him like that. I'm in love with him, but Gracie, I have no idea who you are." I approached her as her voice was shaking and she muttered something.

"Agnes it's OK. If you don't want to, there's no requirement that you look at this. You are welcome to stay with us, and we will return in a timely manner. And I really hope that they are able to apprehend the murderer so that we can have our loved ones back." I said, and she gave me a hesitant smile.

"I do hope that as well. You need to go right away because, as you well know, you can't afford to lose sight of them. She said and I nodded. I gave her a peck on the cheek before following her into the house.

When I arrived at the house, I saw Jason and Ryan standing in front of something. I went inside. When I examined more closely, I noticed that it was a woman.

I was taken aback by the brazen expression that she had on her face. A woman doing all of these things?

"Can you please replace the head of my mother?" Ryan asked.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," I responded. She said staring at Bella.

"Yes you do Joan. It would be in your best interest to reveal where Kyle is before you are put to a particularly gruesome death. She said, and I clenched my teeth and took a deep breath where I stood. "Kyle is not going to come even close to this structure. Since I am his older sister, I believe it is my responsibility to look after him.

"You expect me to be cool with it even though these scumbags have murdered my parents and robbed me of everything I own?" She inquired in an irate manner.

"Your folks were the ones who attacked us first! Nothing untoward was ever done to them by us. Jason let out a yell.

You didn't do it to them, but you did it to other people who are human. My parents weren't able to stand to see you exploit other people in any case." After she yelled back, Ryan became angry and hit her. "Enough with the pointless chitchat. Who knows where her head is? As soon as he instructed me to take the knife out of my pockets, my heart started beating really quickly.

"Her head is nowhere to be found. It is not anywhere near her body, which is exactly where it should be. After hearing what she had to say, Ryan fiercely seized her hand.

"If we're being honest, I'm not the patient type." After saying this, he started cutting her fingers. I had to close my eyes because she was screaming. I was unable to stop the tears from falling out of my eyes. Now that I have a better understanding of why Agnes did not want to come, I guess I won't be able to witness this either. I was under the impression that I could, but I can't.

"Where are you looking for your brother?" Jason inquired while keeping his hand behind his back. I felt terrible for the lady because she was crying, and I could see how upset she was.

"Far. From. You. Bastards." "Far. From. You." Because of what she stated, I have a lot of respect for her. Her bravery.

This time, Ryan took another finger, and when he did, I sprinted out of the house and headed toward the car.

"Now I get the reasons why you did not..." I responded, and when I came to the spot where Agnes had been sitting, I discovered that she had disappeared.

I checked in all of the possible locations, but I couldn't replace her anywhere.

"Agnes!!!" I called out of terror, certain that she wouldn't just abandon the three of us here. Even the route that leads back into town is unknown to her.

When I looked down, I noticed that one of her slippers was lying on the floor. On the ground, there were indications of a fight, as if she had been dragged by force.

I followed the mark very carefully until I reached a location where I was unable to locate any more traces of it, at which point I noticed that I was following the tracks of a car tyre.

That indicates that she was dragged behind a car and then put inside of it. I was quaking in my boots.

When I returned to the house where Ryan and Jason were, I saw how busy they still were and I hurried back there.

"Ryan!" When I saw that he intended to cut the last finger off of her hand, I decided to give him a call.

"What!" He yelled at me while he was looking at me.

"Agnes! "She has disappeared!" I remarked, and he responded by opening his eyes further.

"What? What caused that to occur?" Jason inquired, and I responded by shaking my head.

"I'm not familiar with Ryan. As a result of her anxiety, she was unable to visit us... After noticing some clues on the ground, I realized that she had been taken captive. I muttered through my tears, and he gave me an angry look. He came crashing against the wall with a loud groan as he did so.

"We have to track her down! We have to get going! She is trembling in fear! She is completely ignorant. I said.

"Bring her to the vehicle." As Ryan made his furious exit from the house, he yelled after Jason.

When Jason pulled the woman to her feet, I noticed that her hand was bleeding.

"Jason, if she bleeds to death, you won't be able to extract anything from her. We need her to be alive, therefore let's put an end to this bleeding. I said and Bella nodded.

"I will put an end to it." While I was running back to the car, she remarked that she would take a few things from the kitchen.

Ryan was sitting in the driver's seat, and he was fuming with rage. Joan was instructed to sit in the rear seat by Jason, who left her soaking hand dangling out of the side window.

After running back, Bella brought some gin and some cloth.

"This should put an end to the bleeding." She mentioned cracking open the bottle of gin and pouring some onto her fingers.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh." She sobbed while wailing her heart out. Bella wrapped her hand in the fabric while her entire body began to vibrate.

I was sitting in the far back of the room with Bella, and we both kept staring at her.

"I swear on my life that your brother is the one responsible for the kidnapping of Agnes. If you don't shut up, I'll remove your tongue personally." I said fiercely.

"It would appear that you are becoming more Emerson-like than I had anticipated." Bella said smiling.

**** TONY P. O. V ****

I waited for the males to come into the house in the living room. The next time I saw Agnes was something I couldn't wait for. Now that the Emerson Brothers are actively searching for the one who was responsible for their mother's death. It is not difficult at all to have Agnes without them realizing it.

When the door opened, I immediately leapt to my feet. Agnes was carried in by my men as they entered the room. After noticing blood on her clothing, I made a beeline for them.

"Why did you hurt her? I warned you that not even a single strand of her hair should be harmed. I said fiercely.

"She was just much too headstrong," said the boss. They said, and I turned my attention to her.

"Tony, why are you acting in such a manner? Why won't you just leave me alone? She questioned despite her tears.

"You can go." After hearing what I had to say, the men exited the living room and closed the door behind them.

"I can't let you leave because I love you Agnes. I long for your company and I wish you were here." When I said that I was holding her hand, she immediately ripped it away.

"Don't you dare! You could have chosen something else, but you picked getting even with me instead. It was expressed in a furious tone.

"And I regret it. My desire to see them punished took precedence over my love for you at the time because I was still reeling from the pain caused by what they did to the two of us. But I need you, Agnes, and I'm sorry about that. I said sadly. "Did you put an end to their mother's life?" She inquired, and my response was to shake my head.

"No, I didn't do that, but I wish it had been me. I suppose that I am not the only one who harbors vengeful thoughts after all. I said.

"And why on earth should I put any stock in anything you have to say?" She inquired.

"Because I scrapped all of my intentions to murder the Emerson Brothers in order to bring you back to me," she said. When I learned that you had returned to their mansion, I detested myself for having allowed you to leave. I told her, and she responded by rolling her eyes.

"I wasn't in any pain there!" she exclaimed. They adopted me into their family. I was loved by them, Ryan was adored by them, and I loved Ryan. Because the brothers are in a bad mood right now, it would be best if you took me back with you before they found you and killed you. She said it with confidence.

You're in love with an Emerson, are you? A killer?" I questioned with rage.

"I am free to chose whoever I want to spend my time with. In addition, I am sorry that I made my decision based in any way on your input. You are not even remotely worth a fraction of that." I just stood there and stared at her as she walked to the couch.

I'm familiar with Ryan. He has promised to be here for me. She stated this while seated on the sofa.

"I do not believe that his love for you is as strong as he claims it to be, and his humanity is lacking. He is incapable of feeling anything toward you. I said grinning.

"It's off, but his memories are clear as day in his thoughts," she said. I can't wait until they replace us together so I can see how your dumb retribution will turn out. She said while cracking a grin.

"I need you to bind her up," the voice said. After hearing what I had to say, a group of men came in, helped her onto a single seat, and then started tying her up. Following that, I gave them the signal to go.

You certainly have a lot of courage. When I remarked that I was walking close to her, she quickly swallowed her saliva. I was aware that her fear of me had not completely subsided.

"That is one aspect of you that I miss." I said while lightly touching her lips with my finger.

"Remain at a distance from me." When she stated that, I smiled and shook my head.

"I am unable to do that because I love you and because I long for this body with all of my heart." I was squatting in front of her at the time and putting my hand in her skirts when I made the statement.

Stop doing that. She whispered it between clenched teeth, but I didn't stop moving forward. I purposely brought my hand into contact with her private parts, and she let out a shocked scream when I did so. "I am aware that this is one of your areas of weakness." I said smriking.
