"You heard me." Benedict said, unable to contain his excitement as he saw Cedric enter the room.

Cedric wanted to laugh, Benedict now looked like a child who had gotten his gift on Christmas morning. Gone was the somewhat intimidating and smart looking man, now he was just excited to have been heard.

​​

"In a few minutes, my men and I leave to save your sister, yes." Cedric said with a nod as he leaned against the door. "Would you like to help?" He asked.

Benedict nodded vigorously. "Anything for Camilla." Benedict promised. 

"Adien is only pretending to care about her. When we were younger he didn\'t care about our sister, all that mattered to him was bringing our family back." Benedict confessed. "He bullied her, and when our parents died, it was like he forgot about her."

"Then why did he say she is the reason he is going after our families?" Cedric asked Benedict.

"She is an excuse, a way for the public to side with him when things go bad." Benedict said with a frown. "Growing up, grandfather constantly reminded him about how our family fell from grace, how we lost everything. They never mentioned Camilla."

"So how did she come into play?" Cedric asked.

"Because I made him swear that if our sister was still alive we would save her. We would bring her home." Benedict said in a hopeful voice before sighing and shaking his head. "But it seems Camilla got a better chance at life when she was abandoned."

Cedric could see as a sad smile appeared on Benedict\'s face. Cedric trusted his gut, and his gut said that Benedict was telling the truth. He truly was the one that cared about Camilla and not Aiden.

"I need to know everything about your house, every blind spot and every entrance. You need to tell me all of this so that we can save your sister as quickly as possible." Cedric told Benedict who simply nodded in response.

"Come in guys." Cedric said as he opened the door and let the other boys in.

After twenty minutes they managed to get all the details they needed from Benedict and were able to form a plan. 

Benedict would come with them, but he would stay with Katerina in her house. Cedric, Alexi, Ian, and Ray would join the team that would enter Aiden\'s house and save Camilla.

When they got back to the mansion Cedric pulled his wife to him and hugged her tightly. Katerina had already told them partially about that plan so they knew that the boys were going out to save Camilla.

"Is he really Camilla\'s brother?" Adrianna asked as she looked at the younger man that stood awkwardly at the door. 

Cedric had left several guards to keep an eye on Benedict, in case he tried to run.

"Can\'t you see the resemblance?" Cedric asked with a grin.

"A bit." Adrianna said with a shrug. "I guess I\'m just tired."

"Rest, by the time you wake up we will be back, and hopefully by then we could have dealt with Aiden as well." Cedric said as he kissed his wife passionately on the lips.

"Okay lovebirds, time to go." Alexi teased as he let go of Selina and mouthed a goodbye.

"I should be calling the two of you lovebirds." Cedric said with a laugh as he let his wife go and walked out of the house.

"Take care of them." Cedric said as he looked Ram in the eye. 

Ram would be staying behind with the others in order to keep news of the attack on Aiden\'s home out of the media. He would also be monitoring any news on movement from Aiden\'s end.

"Don\'t worry, they are safe here." Ram said with a nod.

Cedric thanked him and got into his car. He was joined by Benedict, Ray, and Ian while Miguel rode with the medial van behind them.

"If my brother decides to run it will still be at a benefit to us." Benedict suddenly said as they hit the highway.

"Why?" Cedric asked.

"Aiden does not trust banks, one reason being that you own the biggest in the country, and the other because he fears that people will take his money." Benedict explained. "My brother and I were brought up to be untrusting of the world, but I at least had friends outside of the Ortiz family home, while my brother only spoke to our grandfather."

"So all his resources are at the house?" Cedric asked, quite surprised that Aiden had placed all his eggs in one basket.

"He has some stashed with our grandfather, then there is his right hand man, Kenneth Cruz." Benedict explained, mentioning an all too familiar name.

"Is Kenneth really that important to him?" Cedric asked Benedict.

"My brother depends heavily on the man, yes." Benedict said with a nod.

"Hopefully we get your brother today, otherwise I may have to go after Kenneth and his family." Cedric said with a sigh. 

In truth, Cedric wanted to live a peaceful life, one where his only problems were his business and his family, but it seemed that fate would not let it be so.

The rest of the drive went silently as they drove by Aiden\'s home before finally stopping at Katerina\'s. 

Cedric parked his car in an area that could not be seen by Aiden\'s men. 

"It seems like there are no guards keeping watch." Cedric said as he closed the door behind him.

"There normally aren\'t." Benedict explained. "No one knows about this property because it\'s in my name, not my brother\'s." 

"So no one will be watching outside?" Cedric asked.

"A few guards inside, but that\'s it." Benedict said with a shrug, Cedric now felt that they had over prepared. "I just don\'t know if my brother will have increased security, especially now that he has kidnapped our sister."

"I doubt it." Alexi said as they entered Katerina\'s home. "If I were him, I would increase my protection for later, especially since I know that Cedric has no idea about this place."

"I think so too." Benedict said in agreement.

"Oh, good, you boys are here." Katerina greeted them happily. "I\'ve set up an area for Benedict, Eric, and I to watch everything that is going on."

"Katerina just realized that one of her guest bedrooms overlooks the entire property next door." Eric said with a laugh. "Don\'t worry Alexi, it had bullet proof glass and you can\'t see the inside from outside. I would never put your sister in harm\'s way."

"Thank you." Alexi said with a nod.

"Shall we start?" Cedric asked as he gave his companion\'s a look. 

"Yes. Let\'s go save Camilla." Ian said in agreement.
