There’s only a handful of people Dan cares about in this world. Truly. And seemingly the list only grows shorter and shorter every single day. Valerie Wood was an odd exception to that rule - gaining a top place on that list instead of being removed. That being said; when someone from that list disappears out of nowhere; let’s just say it freaks him the fck out. Especially when that person is someone in one of the very top spots. Jessica Pierce. Two weeks ago she disappeared off the face of the planet. And Yes, he truly means planet because he could not bloody find her anywhere. What Daniel Parker did find was her phone discarded in a random trashcan a few blocks away from Jordan and Kai’s building and it didn’t take a genius to put together what had happened. It was just what he predicted; Kai hurt her… and when he found a video sitting on Anna Pierce’s computer… after a little hacking, he understood why. Blue Royalty’s heir himself, Malachi Azure had broken Jessica. And Daniel was bloody p!ssed that he couldn’t do anything about it. Because Kai owned his family’s company.
That hadn’t stopped Dan from making an appearance at the man’s bachelor party and punching the ass, after a week and a half of not finding Jess what could he do. His worry had increased exponentially. Usually when Jess had disappeared - he could find her. Maybe it took a day or two; but it wasn’t impossible. Well… until now. He had 0 ideas. His Heli had a navigation plan to Paris so he had looked all over Paris security cameras and nothing. His car had driven to his airstrip making his plane go to italy - and again nothing. Jessica had clearly wanted to disappear and he hated that he hadn’t had the chance to make sure she was safe and it was that ass’ fault. And if Kai thought one punch to the eye meant that he was done, the man was sorely mistaken.
Arriving at the last soccer game; he dropped Jez off at the front so she wouldn’t have to walk very far before parking the car and following suit - though unlike Jez; Dan made his way past the benches and went straight towards the soccer team locker room. He got a few snide looks though no one dared talk to him before he reached where surprise surprise Dorian DeLoughry was standing basically naked; changing into his uniform. “Where is she?” Dan questioned. Daniel had been avoiding DeLoughrey. The man clearly couldn’t do his damn job. All that Daniel had asked was for him to keep her away from Kai so this EXACT situation didn’t happen. Useless Ken doll. “I asked you a question, blondie, my cousin has been missing for two weeks and she was last seen in your house. So where the fck did she go?” Dan asked. Perhaps part of the reason he hadn’t asked before was because he thought he could figure it out without Dorian’s help. After all, Dorian wasn’t help; he was rather just a waste of space. But in an odd twist of fate; the man actually had use in this particular situation.
“I don’t know what it is about you. Do you just enjoy being a bloody idiot or something? I swear to god you literally do not know how to do anything except run after a damn ball, DeLoughrey. Oh, I’m sorry, and fck cheerleaders. It’s your only two qualities. Besides that you are a fcking plain bagel with no personality. You can’t even follow through on simple instruction. As far as Im bloody concerned; you are just as much at fault as Kai that Jessica disappeared. And because of you she could be in some random city hurt. So I swear to god; what the fck did she tell you before she left or did you not have enough intelligence to listen?”
