Chapter 47

Chapter 47
The boys were still waiting in the room for Hendrik and Freya who were taking a long time. After waiting for a while, the two appeared sweaty, disheveled, and even Hendrik's cuts had started bleeding again.

The three were holding back their smiles, Freya had the look of a student caught cheating on a test and taken to the principal's office, she was very embarrassed.

" Was the class that good?" Sasha asked Freya, she was the type to let loose with a friend, but not a joke.

Freya made a face at them, Hendrik asked why they were standing there in the room, Alan asked them to come closer and showed them everything he had found in the house.

" We only need to cover a few more points in the house now, your apartment and the clubs, those are the main places, we normally don't use the rest to discuss the services, but I will check them all "

When Alan talked about the bugs in the bedroom, Freya realized that Tobias had heard everything they did there, and she got angry and embarrassed." Were there cameras in my room as well?" Freya asked, not knowing if Tobias had seen everything that happened.

She was a little relieved to know that she wasn't filmed, and realized that Hendrik really trusted Rico not to have suspected this before. Freya tried to disperse her thoughts about Rico, he was the past and Hendrik wanted nothing to do with him.

Even though Hendrik hadn't done anything to raise her suspicion, she still had insecurities from his past, and needed to free herself from it, not to hinder her relationship with Hendrik.

Hendrik said he was going upstairs to take a shower and then they could go check the other places, Freya also went upstairs, she needed a shower as much as Hendrik. Freya Left to shower alone, she needed to leave and didn't want to delay him, which could happen if she entered.

While waiting, Freya received a call from the clinic where Anika was . They Informed her that she was awake, and Freya was so much happy to hear that, now she would have to go with Hendrik to work fast, so he could drop Freya off at the clinic before going to his apartment.

They finished their showers and Hendrik agreed to leave her there. The two went downstairs and Rosamund met them saying she was going shopping and invited Freya to go with her. Freya agreed and notified her that they would have to stop by the clinic first, so Hendrik would leave at least four security guards with them, Viktor offered to go along, Hendrik agreed and would feel more at ease knowing that Viktor was with them, even though he wasn't a security guard.

Before Viktor left, he confirmed the dinner time with Alan, doing so in a very serious manner. Since Freya and Rosamund were leaving later, Hendrik suggested they go in separate cars so they would save time.

They said their goodbyes and each went to their destination, Freya arrived at the clinic very anxious to see Anika's real condition. She entered the room and there was a nurse there administering medication, Freya approached her and held her hand.

" How are you? Are you feeling well?"

Anika looked at her for a moment before answering, " who are you?" Freya raised both eyebrows hearing that question, after all, had she lost her memory?

" Do you not recognize me?" Freya wanted to be sure.

" No, I don't know is it the relationship glow or something else because you look more beautiful and attractive than usual, not to mention you're dating a Mafia, how long was I out to have missed so much?"

Freya sighed with relief and saw that Anika was doing very well, the first thing she did after waking up was catch up on the gossip. Freya hugged her friend, who hugged her back.

" Now, seriously, I'm very happy to see you, and even happier to see that sparkle in your eyes, the sparkle of someone deeply in love. I need to thank that Greek god of a boyfriend of yours for taking care of me, and take the opportunity to ask if there are any mafiosi like him available there."

Freya and Rosamund smiled at Anika, everything might seem romantic like a fairy tale in Anika's mind, but Freya and Rosamund knew very well that it was more like a suspense, action, and even horror story than a fairy tale.

Freya introduced Rosamund to Anika and ended up having to tell part of the story to Anika or she wouldn't leave her alone. After summarizing, Freya said goodbye to her friend and promised to come back to tell the details, and promised to try to find a Mafia member like she asked in a joking manner, but she knew that with the same principles that Hendrik had, it would be difficult.

Hendrik arrived at the parking lot of his apartment and received a call, the call was from an unknown number, but he answered anyway. Hendrik was surprised when he found out who was on the other line.

< Call conversation>

" Hendrik, it's me, Rico, please listen to me, I really need to talk to you, I need to explain everything to you, I was forced by Tobias, please, you need to listen to me."
Rico's voice sounded like he was crying.

" Is this your number? Hendrik asked 

" Yes, but wait for me to call, if Tobias finds out that I managed to talk to you, he'll kill me, I need to meet you and explain everything.

" Alright , calm down, I would arrange a meeting." Hendrik assured him.

" I have to go, he's coming, Hendrik, believe me, I love you. "Rico said this and hung up , lifted the corners of his lips in a triumphant smile and spotted something interesting.

Hendrik saved the number and Alan asked, " was that Rico?" Hendrik looked at him, raised an eyebrow, and gave a slight smile, now that Rico had taken the first step, all he had to do was wait.

"Running from the wolf only to meet the lion." Hendrik said that and they went up to the apartment.

Freya, Rosamund and Viktor were at the mall, Rosamund entered a department store and picked out a few items to try on, Viktor was looking at some shirts, thinking of buying something new for his date with Alan that day, the other security guards were further away.

Freya was near the fitting room, waiting for Rosamund and looking at random things, she turned around and bumped into someone, causing an item to fall. Freya stooped down, apologizing, and went to pick up the item, the person she bumped into also stooped down and held Freya's arm.

Freya looked and recognized that it was the same man with the cap from the club, who she now knew was Rico, Freya wanted to get up, but Rico held onto her arm.

" Stay calm, I won't hurt you, I just wanted to talk to you and this was the only way I found, your days in that house are numbered, Hendrik will take me back because he loves me and I'm the right person to be with him, you can't even hold a gun, so enjoy it while you still can because after he kicks you out, Tobias would want to play with you."
