After a short fifteen minute drive, Philip arrived at Daniel's building and parked the vehicle. Regina felt the stop and hoped it was just a traffic light and she had more time to think about how she could get out of this mess. But she was unlucky, she heard the driver's door open and knew that time was running out.

Daniel instructed Philip what to do while he went up and arranged everything he needed. Regina didn't understand what was taking them time; she thought maybe Philip had stopped to go to the bathroom or something. But after a few minutes the door opened and Philip removed the blanket from Regina's face. He released her from the seat belt and prepared to lift Regina her on her feet.

But she had a different idea, she knew it was the only time she would have a chance. She lifted her legs and kicked hard on Philip's stomach, he immediately gathered and cried out in pain and Regina kicked him again directly in the face. He fell back on the floor and moaned in pain. Regina was able to rise and get out of the vehicle on her own. A difficult action when she is restricted in movement but she succeeds nonetheless. She looked around looking for the exit from the car park. Philip tried to grab her by the legs while lying on the floor but she was faster and kicked him in the face again.

He continued to lie on the floor and held his nose filled with blood. She began to walk away from him as much as possible and tried to find a hiding place or exit. What she didn't know was she couldn't escape, the whole building belonged to Daniel and there was no one to help her escape.

Daniel reached the penthouse floor and set his things aside at the door. He continued toward the living room and saw Edith in the kitchen area. Edith is the maintenance manager of his house and the chef, he asked her to make a romantic dinner and not enter the room on the second floor. He then goes to the room where Regina is going to be and hopefully it will be his room too. But for now he will give her time to get used to the new situation. He sees himself as the perfect gentleman. He checked that everything was ready for Regina's arrival.

Everything was clean, upscale and smelled great and of the best quality possible. But he knew it wouldn't be easy so he hid in the wardrobe in a secret drawer, the anesthetic, syringe and duct tape just in case and he will have to use it. After everything was ready, he returned to the living room expecting to see Philip waiting with his future wife but the living room was empty and he did not like it. He tried to call Philip but there was no answer.

"Ahhh ... what takes him so long, what he can possibly do, I just asked him for a little things." He muttered to himself and went over to check the security cameras. He saw Philip lying on the floor and sighing in pain as blood ran down his nose. Regina is trying to find a way to escape the parking area and as far away from Philip can. He moaned. He should have known it was going to happen; he might even have been disappointed if it hadn't happened. A high-level agent knows how to protect herself, Regina won't give up easily. Instead of going downstairs and bringing his wife to him, he would make her come to him.

In the meantime, Regina tried to find the front door of the building or at least an elevator so she could exit back to the street above her. She noticed that she was far enough away from Philip so she lay on the floor and tried to move her tie hands to the front of her body so she had more accessibility. An exercise she studied at the academy.

She lifted her legs over her head and moved her hands under her feet and afterwards she lowered her legs through the hole in her hands and managed to improve her condition. Now that her hands are in the front, she can protect herself and find something to use as a weapon. She continued to run towards the arrows marking the way to the exit. Suddenly she saw the entrance to the elevator. Immediately she stepped inside and pressed the lobby button. The doors closed and she calmed down, slowly tearing the duct tape from her mouth. She wanted to let her body rest and relax her heart beating fast after a long run.

Daniel smiled to himself. He managed to draw Regina to the elevator. He had full control of the elevator operating system. And so he can make the elevator stop only on the floor he wants, the same floor he is waiting for her.

Regina did not notice that the elevator was rising quickly, the fatigue was increasing. When the door opened and Daniel stood in the doorway, she screamed in panic and quickly tried to push the close button so that at least there was a door separating them. But the buttons didn't respond to her, so she had no choice but to stay away from him as much as she could.

"Don't come near me, I demand you release me immediately." She shouted angrily. He just looked at her and couldn't take his eyes off her; she's so beautiful when she's angry. The beautiful vein on her forehead only adds to her beauty.

"I'm glad you were able to join me, although I'm sure Philip doesn't agree with that. You're a tough but gentle girl and so beautiful." He entered the elevator and Regina was ready to attack him if only he approached her.

"I won't hurt you, I promise. The only thing I want is just to love you."

"You're crazy. I don't want to be near you. You kidnapped me. You really think I want you."

"I'm sure after a while you will change your mind and you want to be with me."

"You hallucinate, there's no way in the world for this to happen. I have the best thing in this world and it's my girlfriend Emma. She's the only love of my life." She could see that he didn't like to hear Emma's name because his whole face was cramped. Well at least she can hurt him emotionally.

"I can endure a lot of things, your behavior, your insulting words, even the looks of hate, but if there's one thing I can't stand, it's the name Emma Swan. He raised his voice and Regina was afraid she might have pushed him too far. He approached her and she raised her hands to her face to protect them from harm by him. But the blow didn't come. He raised one hand but to stroke her face and not hit her.

"I told you I'm not going to hurt you." He said calmly. "Come on, it's time to show you your new home." She didn't want to come close to him, but she had no choice.

He put his hands on her back but she moved away. He allowed her to be away from him and look at the house herself. "For a psychopath he has a stunning apartment." Regina thought to herself. The living room is large and luxurious, the kitchen is fully equipped.

"Your room is upstairs. I brought you a closet full of new clothes and the best linen there is."

"I have my own room? You don't share it with me?" She asked in wonder.

"Do you want me to share the room with you?" He smiled happily.

"No, not really, I'd love to be alone."

"It's okay; I'll show you the room and leave you alone. We'll have dinner together tonight. I asked Edith to make us a romantic meal." Regina froze in the place, the madman made dinner for them; he thinks it's a date for them.

Well Regina had no intention of joining him; in fact she intended to escape. She won't stay until dinner.

"Your room is at the end of the hall, the room is ready for you." Regina just walked up to the room and opened the door. The sight she saw in front of her just took her breath away. The room was much nicer than the living room. It was hard for her to keep a frowny expression, the beauty of the room made her smile a little, but she did not want to look passionate to her kidnapper and tried to hide the fact that she loved her room.

"Thank you, I'll just go to rest now." She told him and began to gently close the door to his face.

"I look forward to our evening, my love." He told her happily and the door closed in front of him.

Regina leaned against the door and fell to the floor, her legs close to her chest and she cried. All the pressure was on her, she couldn't hold it anymore. She prayed that Emma would come to rescue her from the crazy guy and return her to her warm and beloved hands.
