A/N: Okay sorry iy took so long to update but here's a new chapter and... like IT'S A MESS! I hope you enjoy!

"Well, well I think its time we had a little chat."

"Daddy?"

"Mhm… come on I know you have the key to this place." Richard said nodding his daughter over. Mercedes started to walk towards him but stopped looking at him suspiciously.

"How did you know I was coming here… better yet how did you know about this house?" She asked narrowing her eyes.

"Don't ask questions you already know the answer to, you inherited a lot of things from me including your sneakiness. I followed you hear years ago when you still treated me like your dad instead of someone who was just your father. There's a difference by the way." He said waiting for her come to the door.

"Surprise you didn't sell it." She said under her breath and grabbing the key from an old rock near the door. When they entered he let out a whistle and shook his head in approval, the house was nothing like the one they owned. I was more so a home of sorts the living room had colorful accents pieces with warm tones to complement it, there was a large screen tv mounted with a large collection of movies and there was an old fashion record player and a rack next to it that housed over one hundred different records.

"So this is where you would come when you 'ran away'… I see why now because this place screams Mercy." Her dad said looking at her with a small smile.

"Yeah? I decorated it myself you know… well Denise helped." She replied with a slight giggle.

"Denise… how long have you known?" He asked sitting down on the plush couch and rubbing his hands over his face.

"Since I was eleven when you said I had a cousin that you wanted me to meet."

"What gave me away?"

"You hate your family and she was too old to be any of Aunt Faith's kids who by the way I met." She said looking at her father pointedly.

"Does she know?"

"I don't know… if she does she's never said anything about it but you need to tell her and daddy I can't marry that man." She said knowing it her turn to spill some truths.

"You haven't even given him a chance baby girl."

"He's been stalking me since I was in college and he is dangerous! He has this crazy idea that I'm in love with him and that I'm his and only his. He slammed me against the wall and caused me to have a concussion!" She said looking at her father who seemed to confused by what she just said to him.

"What do you mean he slammed you? Why didn't call us when this happened?" He asked jumping up and heading towards the door before she stopped him by standing in front of the door.

"You need to stop, he knows about Denise and he threatened to tell if I didn't do what he wanted… speaking of he's probably still looking for me. I left him in that awful ass maze… you remember what happened to the last one I led in there?" She said with a sly smile and a giggle but stopped when her father gave her an unamused looked.

"Little girl! That boy was dehydrated and damn near delirious when we found him!" He said shaking his head and pulling out his phone texting one of his security to go looking for Tank.

"It's not my fault she wanted it to be so damn huge! I got lost in that thing so much when I was little I'm surprised I'm still alive."

"You never got lost we knew you were in there, those boys are different we didn't know you left them in there you would come back into the house saying they left. I had to pay that poor boy's family so much money because of your actions!"

"He got fresh with me so I handled… he didn't die." She said shrugging.

"We live in Texas he was close to death and that's besides the point, why didn't you call me when this mess started?"

"Why would I call you? You always agree with moma who does not like me nor want me. She finally made that very obvious revelation known today. I handled it then and I'm going to handle it now… what I didn't know was that he's Roz's son. Why am I just now meeting him?" She asked wondering why he was never brought around.

"She did but you were younger and didn't really like having him there so she stopped bringing him." Right before she was about to respond there was a knock at the door and she jumped. No one knew about this house except Denise, Noah and apparently her father, Denise had a key and Noah just left to leave for the airport. Her father gave her a look telling her to open it and she gave one back while shaking her head no.

"Open it." He said firmly.

She opened it and was immediately turned back to her father in worriedly she felt arms around her before hearing a loud boom and seeing her father's eye grow big. She tried to scream but her mouth was immediately muffled by something soft and she felt her body grow limp.

Flashback

"Why are you coming out of my daughter's room?"

"Ahh.. she told me she needed someone to check her room before she rested for the evening, sir."

"Mhm… Noah is it?"

"Y-yes."

"What else did you talk about with her?" Richard asked knowing there was something else.

"Umm… she asked me not disclose our conversation."

"You don't work for Mercedes, you work for me now spill."

"She wants me to get her boyfriend and bring him here, well not here to another location and I told I would because I kinda owe her." Noah said getting really nervous and wiping his sweaty palms on his pants.

"You owe her? How? If I'm not mistaken you don't know my daughter or do you?" Richard's glare hardened making Noah tremble.

"We… we went to school together, she was a few grades under me."

"And that constitutes you owing her a favor?"

"Well… not necessarily. I ahh we umm..."

"You what? You defiled my baby?" Richard boomed and backing Noah into a corner scaring him so much Noah almost fell down.

"No! No, we kissed at a party so many years ago. I didn't know it was her first kiss until after we..." Noah didn't want to tell him that they made out and since she dwindled it down to just being a kiss why should he continue?

"What!?"

"Look, I value this job and I need it so do we really need to get into the particulars?"

"What else?"

"We made out but after that night we never talked again. I would see her around but I swear it was just that one time."

"I'll make sure he gets here. Please keep a close eye on her and son, next time I ask if you know my child don't lie to me. Consider this a promotion and congratulation on the baby." Richard said walking away. Noah stood there stunned and slightly happy he looked down at the necklace and quickly ran after his boss.

"Mr. Jones, she told me to give him this as well. So that he would know it's really her asking for him." He said handing him the necklace and noticed the sudden change Richard's demeanor, he softened and smiled slightly.

"Thank you Noah, take the rest of the night off." He said walking away and smiling at the fact his daughter still had the necklace he gave to her all those years ago.

He walked up someone he trusted with his life and gave him the duty of bringing his daughter's boyfriend. He knew it was about to get testy especially with his wife's drive to dictate their daughter's life.

"Karofsy, I need you to retrieve someone for me and bring him to this location promptly."

"Alive?"

"What? Why would you ask me that?" Richard asked looking at his old friend before they both started laughing.

"I assume the misses doesn't need to know?"

"You assumed correctly and if you could make sure Mercedes doesn't trick anymore of my security to do her handy work. I still haven't forgiven the last one that helped her run away because she played to his weakness for her little smile. She's been giving me hell since she came home but I love her so much and she deserves her happiness… her own way." He replied rubbing his temples.

"Okay, I'll leave right away."

"Good and this is his name, she said to give it to him so he would believe its here."

End Flashback

Sam

Sam was exhausted but his mind was going a mile a minute and he wasn't sure what could do about it. Mercedes was gone and he knew where she was but the thought of her being hurt because of him crippled him. He hated being stuck in the hospital and after telling his family to go home all he wanted to do was sleep so he tried for hours before finally falling asleep. He woke when he heard talking and assumed it was his family but the voice was much deeper and there wasn't anyone else in the room. His curtain was drawn so he could see who it was but once he heard the man say okay and the sound of a phone clicking he braced his self for whatever that was about to happen. The curtain slowly began to open and reveal a large burly man standing there looking at him quizzically.

"Sam, Sam Evan?"

"Y-yes..."

"Oh good, I wasn't told which hospital you were in and this was my first stop."

"Okay? If you're with Tank I got the hint already."

"What? No, no. Richard Jones sent me here to get you oh I was told to give you this as well." Dave said handing him Mercedes's necklace. Sam's eyes grew wide and he looked at the man who was texting away on his phone.

"How did you get this?"

"His daughter Mercedes told another security to give it to you so you'd know it was her. I guessing she didn't get to see you before she brought home otherwise she wouldn't have sent for you just yet." He replied looking at Sam's banged up leg.

"She's okay? Like he didn't get to her?"

"Who? Her father sent me… you okay young man?"

"The wreck wasn't an accident… and if I go with you I'm putting her in harms way so here." Sam said holding the necklace but Dave just looked at him with a perplexed look.

"So you don't want to see her?"

"I do but-"

"Then stop being a bitch and come on, I'm a time crunch." Dave said shaking his head and send yet another text.

"I can't or she'll be hurt!"

"She'll be fine, there's security all around her."

"Yeah… no, now please leave." Sam said shaking his head.

"I have strict orders to return with you and I will. Choose wisely, willingly or forcibly." Dave said crossing his arms and giving him a look. Sam thought about it what he should do before nodding his head and letting out a worried breath. He wasn't sure what was about to happen but he knew that he wanted to get his girl back.

"Okay, let's do this."

…

Mercedes

"Mhm… ow! What the hell… why is it so dark." She tried to open her eyes but everything was blurry, she tried moving but couldn't there was something holding her back.

"Hmph… looks like she's awake, shall we have some fun?" Mercedes heard and tried to recognize the voice it sounded so familiar.

"Who's there?" She said coughing slightly before feeling a the blindfold being yanked off of her face, she blinked trying to adjust and when her eyes finally did she was met by Monica and Shane.

"Shane? Why… Monica? What are you doing? Why am I tied up.. let me go!" She shouted before being slapped by Monica who smiled when she winced from the blow.

"Shut up you stupid bitch!"

"Hey, we never said we were going to do her any harm." Shane said yanking Monica away from Mercedes.

"Oh you shut the hell up! You should have stick with the plan from the beginning but no you just had to fall in love with her!"

"Look! I did what I needed to do, I'm not staying here to watch this… it's pointless." Shane said turning to walk out but stopped when he heard a gun cock.

"Looks like Monica still has more balls than you. You will stay or your new found endorsements will vanish besides we're just having a little fun right baby?" Tank asked looking at Mercedes with a devious smile and he chuckled when she rolled her eyes.

"I think I should take so much needed alone time with our little guest." Tank said lowering the gun while keeping his eyes fixed on Mercedes before continuing. "Let me know when she gets here and not a minute before." Mercedes eyes grew big and she looked at Shane pleading with him not to leave her alone with him he shot her a sad look before turning away.

"I can get you more endorsements!" She shouted quickly making him stop in his tracks and Tank let out a huff.

"I-I… I can get you better endorsements even get you taken off the bench, Shane I never did anything but love you don't leave me alone with him." She pleaded to the back of his head.

"He knows better." Tank said with a smirk and watched the hope leave her eyes as Shane and Monica both left the room. She looked around and saw they were in some type of warehouse, it was dirty and she could only see one door which was directly behind where Tank was standing. She saw a room off to her left but figured it was a dead end and on her right was a desk and a laptop she also saw a camera positioned.

"Why are you doing this?" She asked feeling defeated already but then remembering her father.

"Is my father… is he okay?"

"He may be fine… he may not. That's not really my concern at the moment beautiful, you know that was a dirty trick you pulled earlier." He said pulling out her panties from earlier and winking.

"I'm surprised you managed to get out of there." He didn't respond to her remark he just placed her panties into his back pocket and placed the gun he was holding down on the table as he walked closer to here she was sitting. When he got close she leaned back as far as she could but it was no use she was stuck and he knew it, she could see the darkness in his eye as he scanned her body.

"You really are a sight and knowing you don't have on any panties makes this whole situation so much more exciting." He said moving the loose hair our of her face gently allowing his hand to trail down her face to her shoulder stopping just above her cleavage.

"Please don't do this..." She said looking at him with sad eyes but the look of lust filled his and she knew she didn't have a chance in hell trying to convince him to stop nicely so she made the decision to fight and fight hard.

"Mmm… you sound so sexy when you beg baby." He replied ripping the top of her dress slightly exposing her lacy bra, she didn't flinch she fixed her expression to be bored and unimpressed which seemed to have an effect on him because he let out an annoyed breath.

"Shane knows how to please me you should have asked him before trying whatever it is you're doing." She said dryly which seemed to piss him off because he stood up and turned before backhanding her across the face. She started to scream but knew that would probably encourage him to continue ripping her dress so she held it in and after a few moments she made eye contact with him showing she wasn't easily hurt. He rose and eyebrow and nodded his head before slapping her again this time much harder than before.

"You just don't get it do you?" He asked slapping her again this time she whimpered but refused to scream.

"You are mine and I will get what I want from you and I know for a fact that you will enjoy every moment of it. So stop with the fucking bullshit and accept what is about to happen." He said completely ripping her dress on pulling it off along with her dress slip, he leaned in really close and grabbed her face which she tried to pull away but his grip was far to strong.

"Now, I'm going to kiss you and if you bite me I will bite you back and I don't mean in any place you want to be bitten do you understand?" He waited for her to respond but all she did was start at him and he saw the fire in her eyes, she wasn't going to give up easily. Tank leaned in more and placed his lips on hers softly at first but the kiss became more rough, less gentle and he released her face and wrapped his arms around her kissing her more and didn't respond to his touch which angered him because he abruptly pulled away and slapped her again. He walked around behind and untied her and as soon as she felt her hands fall free she jumped up and mad a run for the door but her legs we like noodles and he caught her throwing her over his shoulder and chuckling.

"Let me go you dirty piece of shit!" She shouted. Tank just continued walking until they reached the room and threw her down onto the bed. She knew what was coming next and felt the tears falling down her eyes but she refused to look away from him, if he was going to do this then he would have to look her in the eye as he did. She watched as he undressed and said a silent prayer before feeling his body on hers, she couldn't stop the cry that escaped when he unsnapped her bra. She didn't want this, she didn't deserve this and she realized she gave up in that moment.

"NO!" She screamed kneeing him in the groan three times making him yelp out in pain. He toppled over and rolled off of the metal bed, she jumped up and kicked him a few more times before rushing out of the room and looked for the gun he placed on the table but she didn't see it, she heard the main door open and looked around for somewhere to hide but it was too late. Shane saw her and grabbed her but he was gentle and took his jacket off giving it to her before reluctantly placing her back in the chair she was originally in and retied her hands.

Just as he was finishing Tank emerged and looked beyond pissed he pushed Shane out of the way and punched Mercedes in the face then in her stomach causing her to scream out in pain and a little blood came out of her mouth when she coughed. He was about to hit her again but Shane moved in front of her and stopped him from hitting her again.

"ENOUGH!" A voice came from behind them and they turned to look at the person speaking.

"Now… I only gave you one damn job and you managed to fuck that all up! Go find her some clothes to put on and you, go get dressed you fucking idiot!" Shane and Tank both stared at each other for a moment before they each grumbled and walked away. Mercedes recognized the voice and began to cry, her head hurt and she felt beyond violated.

"Well.. looks like he did a number on you little sis but don't worry we'll get you all cleaned up. Can't have you looking bad bow can we?" Denise asked with a smug and unnerving expression on her face.

"Denise… you're apart of this? Why?"

"You have something I don't and now I'm going to make sure everyone knows." She said picking up a piece of the her torn dress and wiping her face with it.

"What are you talking about? I haven't done anything to you!" Mercedes asked jerking her face away from Denise.

"You were born. Our father just had to meet your mother and of course she's a wicked witch and told him he couldn't see me anymore after she found out she was pregnant. I knew he was my dad even though I was forced to call him uncle and when he introduced us I was sure he would tell you I was your sister but he called me your cousin." She said with a slight chuckle shaking her head.

"You know I get a monthly check from that asshole? Ten grand a month since I was seven and you little miss sunshine got the house, the mom, the dad the whole ordeal. While my mother a fucking drug addict left me and my father had you, I was left alone and forced to live with other family members who only wanted me because of the money I came along with… you had it all but couldn't even appreciate it. Always running away, getting into trouble and just doing dumb shit because you couldn't handle a normal fucking life!"

"Normal? Have you met my damn mother? She NEVER wanted me, I was a hindrance to her life and you think you had it so bad… yeah I grew up with both parents but I didn't have parents. I had a mother who resented me from birth and a father that only showed his true love when his wife wasn't around. So don't stand there and act like you're the only one who had it hard because that's bullshit and if you think about blackmailing them the one fucking person that would give a damn is laying in a pool of his own blood in my house." Mercedes spat back with hate in her eyes and laughed when she saw the shocked look on Denise's face.

"Yeah you're goon in there fucked up, my mother will never give you what you want. She will tell you to kill me before she gives you a penny so you should've just let Tank beat the shit out of me because you plan just fell through sis!"

"He wasn't…"

"You sure you're a Jones? We don't fuck up like this and we damn sure don't mess with our own family… yeah my parents are shitty and they do unspeakable things but if it's money you wanted you could've just walked to the front door and demanded it but taking me was the stupidest thing you could've done. Did you check to see if my father's security was there? Did you check the house before coming after me? You better hope he's dead because I'm more than sure someone is looking for him and if you left his phone then he's been found and you are all fucked even if Tank kills me."

"You're lying!"

"I have no reason to lie. You could've came to me Denise… you could've just told me how you felt. How long has this been going on?"

"I sent Tank in your direction… he sent Shane." She said coldly and smiled when she realized Mercedes didn't know that Shane was involved.

"S-shane?"

…

"Something's not right." Dave said as they pulled up the address he was given from Richard. He got out of the car along with another member of his team and walked cautiously towards the front door which was wide open.

"Call the rest of the team and have them out here as soon as possible." Dave said to the other member before entering.

"D-dave."

"Richard? Richard! Man what the hell happened? Where are you shot?" Dave said finding the man lying on the floor holding his waist but there was a lot of blood and he was feeling weak.

"They took baby girl… you need to find her. Did you bring the package?"

"We will find her, you just stay awake and yes he's in the truck." Dave answered apply pressure to the wound and calling for help.

"I want to speak to him, please before I pass out again." Richard said attempting to sit up but couldn't Dave nodded and laid him back down before running out to the truck and opening Sam's door.

"Come on, Mr. Jones wants to speak with you." He said pulling him out of the car more forcibly than intended, they hurried back into the house and Sam froze he looked around and he knew something horrible happened here.

"Come here." Dave said pulling him towards Richard.

"Hi, Mr, Jones… I'm Sam, Sam Evans."

"He has her and I'm trusting you like she did to find her. Don't let him ruin my baby girl."

"Who has her?"

"Bryce. He took her and shot me there was another man with him… he looked familiar some football player." Richard replied grunting before continuing. "They took her phone, track it but be careful if they're willing to shoot me without thought they will kill you."

"Who is Bryce? I don't know a Bryce..." Sam asked before being pushed away by his security who showed up in record time and they all lifted him off the ground and carried him to a waiting car. Sam stood there for a while and tried to think of who he was speaking of but was coming up blank.

"Shane played football..."

Sam's eyes grew wide and he knew then that Bryce was Tank and felt his panic, he ran outside as best he could his leg was still bruised but he needed to speak to Dave.

"Dave!'

"Not now kid, just stay here and I'll be back."

"No! The man that took her is going to hurt her or worse kill her… if he knows I'm here he will do it, he tried to kill us. He's the reason we were in the wreck to begin with and there was a woman with him… Monica she was my nurse but I know for a fact that she probably doesn't like Mercedes because of Shane, the other man that was with Bryce is her ex. We need to find her before they do anything to her, I have to find her and I need you to help me." Sam said loudly and sternly, he needed them to understand just how bad this was and how Mercedes was on limited time.

'Go Dave and take these two with you. I'll be fine they can get my to my personal care doctor. Save my daughter and kill the bastards that took her."

"Sir… we haven't done that in years."

"Save Mercedes." Richard said with convection.

SOOOOO...? Okay so this was pretty good and now it's time for the real fight to begin! Also Denise... why sis? why? It will not be easy to find her and that's all I'm going to say! Until next time XOXO!
