Saved By Him

Chapter 26

Isabella Rose

"Why are we at a motel?" I ask him puzzled.

A minute ago he said he was driving us to the jet. And now, we are parked outside a motel.

He kills the engine of the car with a sigh, "We need to stay another night in Germany. Whilst you were asleep, I was trying to go through Felix's phone - which you inconveniently smashed - when I saw a message" .

"Well I had no choice but to smash it" I mutter, as I pull his blazer around me more closely.

I was still stuck in this dress annoyingly enough, and Germany felt cooler than it usually was.

"Well anyway there was a message to Felix, I quote saying 'Boss wants to meet you 5pm tomorrow at town hall' which is why me and you, principessa, are going to see which boss this exactly is" Valentino states.

"And the rest?" I ask confused.

"They will be returning to Italy with Felix's unconscious body. We will return by jet tomorrow night after we see if the supposed meeting could give us any clues" he replies.

"Aww soo cute! You chose to take me along" I chuckle as I slap his bicep, "damn that's some hard muscle" I say gripping it.

That doesn't last long as I feel his hand push mine away, "I chose to take you because you don't mean anything whilst they do, that way I can easily sacrifice you" he scoffs as he gets outside the car.

"Ouch" I mumble also getting out, but I wasn't surprised.

He immediately begins walking away towards the entrance of the motel, making me groan. "These heels are killing me! Can't you walk any slower?"

But did he care? No.

"Bastard" I mutter under my breath as I notice him walking more quickly.

By the time I actually make into the lobby of the motel, I'm too tired to even look around as I instantly sit down on the sofa.

I look up seeing Valentino checking his phone, as he waits for the people in front to finish their booking at the desk.

"What brings you here, princess?" I hear a man, who I didn't even realise was sitting beside me. He was eating a brownie from a bag he had in his hand.

"I heard they give out free doughnuts here, so here I am" I smile before looking away.

He looked similar to Valentino's age, probably just a bit younger. His dull blonde hair slightly fell over his forehead, whilst his blue eyes were directly on me.

He wasn't bad looking, but I would say Valentino is definitely more attractive.

Not that I would ever admit it to his face.

The man beside me chuckles, "I'm not sure about free doughnuts, but I could offer you some free brownies".

I feel my mouth water at the sight of them; I mean I was feeling quite hungry.

But something about this rough- looking man eating an innocent brownie didn't seem right to me.

"What's the catch?" I ask with my eyebrow raised.

He smirks with a glint in his eyes, "A beauty with brains. They're not very common these days"

"Of course, and it's also not very common to meet a man who offers free drugged brownies. So hand one over" I grin.

"Yeah?" He asks with some surprise in his tone.

A whole night in a room to myself, feeling ten times more free and light didn't seem like such a bad idea to me.
