Hello!!! I know it's been such a long time before I updated. This was supposed to be updated yesterday, but I had to celebrate Chinese New Year yesterday so I didn't have time. Anyways, I hope you like this chapter even though it's still short. I'll promise to make it longer soon (when I have time). Enjoy! :D

Chapter 5

For the last few weeks, everything at the manor was blissful and exciting. Her sisters were in an uproar about the news. It was just something about the arrival of a new family member that they got a kick out of.

Of course, Leo kept an eye on her even more carefully. He didn't want her to fall down the stairs or bump into some sharp edges or anything like that. Of course, Piper insisted she still works at the club anyways. No matter how much Leo tried, he couldn't say no to her.

It was late at the club, and Piper was still bent over some paperwork filling out in a rush to get home to her husband and daughter. A fog had rose over the city leaving prickles on her neck every time she looked outside. The club was way too quiet and that made Piper more anxious to get home, where she's safe.

Signing her name on the last of the paperwork, Piper gathered her stuff and got ready to go home.

He watched her in the shadows, lingering on the right time to make his move. She was his, and no one else's. He was going to have her, no matter what it took. Of course, the news of that little unborn child in her stomach didn't surprised him either. He figured it would happen sooner or later. Too bad, it would never get a chance to experience life. He chuckled quietly to himself in pure evilness.

Piper swirled around swiftly as if she heard something. Fear and apprehension filled her insides, as a trickled of sweat poured down her face. Piper stared into the walls of the club, trying to see if anyone was lurking around. 'Get a grip of yourself' Piper said silently as her stomach churned with nervousness.

Just watching her made him excited with anticipation. He couldn't wait to get her alone, but first...

"AH!!!" Piper shrieked as she hard something landing to the ground with such force it startled her. She let out a sigh of frustration and thought, 'I really need to get out of here'.

A wicked grin formed on his lips slowly as he watched her turned her back to walk out of the club. 'Not so fast beautiful,' he thought mischievously.

Suddenly, all the lights to the club turned off out of nowhere. Piper stopped dead in her tracks and froze for a minute. 'No, this isn't happening' Piper thought to herself silently as she searched for an emergency flashlight.

Switching it on, Piper shined it throughout the club. After awhile, she came to terms that there was nothing there and maybe there was a short circuit or something. Piper decided she let the maintenance man worry about it tomorrow.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Piper turned around. The flashlight in her hands fell to the floor with a loud thump!

"Hi, beautiful," came his harsh whisper against her ears. Blood was rushing through her like boiling water, her heart was pounding with fear. Piper wanted to run but her feet wouldn't move an inch. She could smell the cologne on him.

Oddly, it smelled like Leo's. 'What the hell is going on?!' Piper thought in panic. Leo wouldn't do this just to scare her, would he? He would never dare. No, it wasn't him. Leo didn't have rough hands like he did. Piper wasn't sure of what she was in for, but...a black blanket covered her eyes before she could react further.

At Piper's home:

"Daddy? Where's mommy? I thought you said she be home by now," Angie fussed. Leo looked as worried as Angie was or maybe more. "Is she going to be okay?" Angie pressed on.

The look on Leo's face was even more worried then his daughter's. Something was definitely wrong and he could feel it.

"Daddy?" Angie called again. Leo said, "I can only hope she's okay." Grabbing Angie in his arms, Leo orbed out.

Angie opened her eyes to see total darkness. "Where are we?" Angie asked gripping onto her father's hand tighter. "We're at the club, honey," Leo answered searching around. "Where's mommy then?" Angie asked but she didn't get an answer from Leo. He was too busy searching for the light switch.

A slight shimmer caught Angie's eyes, and she let go of her father's hand to go see what it was. Her footsteps echoed in the club as each foot hit the ground. Leo warned, "Angie, where you going? Come back here." Angie picked up the flashlight that made that glow. "Look daddy, a flashlight. I think mommy had it before she dropped it," Angie suggested.

Leo took the flashlight from Angie's little fingers and held it in his hands. "Why would she drop it?" Leo asked aloud to hear himself more clearly. Hid head was filled with not so good thoughts of what could be happening to Piper at the moment. "Maybe something scared her," Angie suggested again. "Can you sense your mom?" Leo asked figuring that he couldn't. Angie pondered the thought and sniffed the air.

"No. But something bad happened here. She's with the bad man right now," Angie stated suddenly. "Who is it? Angie, who?" Leo asked. "I don't know. His face isn't clear. Daddy, you have to save mommy before it's too late," Angie warned.

Leo thought, 'I know. But how when I don't even know where she is?'
