ASH THUNDER A DECOY
Chapter 68I don't make it to the library before the door opens and Ash comes striding out. One look at his face and I know he wants to smash someone's head against the wall.I'm being nice.I know he'd prefer to take a gun to someone's head and pull the trigger, then watch as the person's blood seeps out at an alarming rate while slugging back liqueur as he discusses business.Yeah, I know - I've got an overactive imagination.Whatever the case may be, tacky-blonde cop must have said, or done something to make him get this way.I bring one hand up and hook it at my waist as he comes to a stop in front of me. "What the fuck did that woman want with you, and why did you drag her into the library?"His jaw clenches, a sign of his budding anger, but when he speaks, it comes out almost as a whisper. "Don't use that word when my baby is still inside of you."I lift a brow as my second hand comes to rest on the
ASH THUNDER MAD HATTER
Chapter 69Ash's insane twin struts forward, his cold eyes settling on, first, Ash, then on me. There's a frantic energy about him, an aura of instability that has me on edge. Behind him, tacky-blonde cop follows closely with a sickly-looking smile on her face.So these two are a duo. Got it.She goes to stand close to Ash, so close, it's on the tip of my tongue to tell her to get away from him and hug the nearest transformer, but the look Ash is giving his twin makes me realize what is happening. His maniac twin has inched close to me. So close, I can feel the heat radiating off him. He splays his hands in front of him like a politician addressing a crowd. "Here's how we're going to do things." He angles his body toward me, but his eyes are on Ash."You're going to go back to that party of yours with Maybelline." So. . . the tacky cop has a name, and it's Maybelline. ". . . take this one away with me." He j
ASH THUNDER REVENGE: A DISH BEST SERVED BEST HOT
Chapter 70There was once a man who did his best to shed the ghost of his past and make his way to the top. It was hard for him, I gotta tell you - very hard - but he did it. He got to the top, alright, but he did so slowly, painfully. In all, he had a purpose, a focus, and nothing could shake him. . .Until now.I've lived that man's dreams because that man. . . is me.A feeling of total hopelessness assails me as the image of Hazel eyes becomes smaller, but as I look down and see Maybelline latched onto my hand like a leech, I shake it off because I've got a vendetta to plan and revenge to dish out."Yeah, that bitch totally wasn't worth my time," I say to no one in particular, removing an imaginary speck of dust from the sleeve of my jacket.From the corner of my eyes, I see Maybelline's eyes almost popping out as her hold on my hand tightens. "Do you mean that?"I shrug, affecting an air of bored indiffer
ASH THUNDER SMART MOUTH
Chapter 71When next I wake, it's to a blinding headache and tight limbs. I can't move to save my life.I've been tied like a fucking tuna fish in a tin.Ropes are crisscrossed all around my body like a snake, from my chest, all the way down to my legs, which are folded up to my chin.It's excruciating. I can hardly breathe. My first thought is of my baby and if she'll survive this onslaught. My second thought is of Tanya and how she felt when she was about to die.Fuck! I'm gonna die.The thought is humbling and scary. It also drives me to panic, but I swallow it down and begin to pray silently, but even that is taxing, so I give up, taking shallow breaths that hardly make it to my throat, and talk more of my lungs.At a point, I'm not able to breathe so I pass out.When next I wake, the ache in my head has reduced to a dull throb, and I don't feel like a tuna fish anymore because, well, because. . . yippee
ASH THUNDER TACTICAL TEAM
Chapter 72Setting up a tactical team doesn't just involve specialist marksmen trained in high-tech weapons and tactics - which by the way is a very important aspect - it also involves the operational sector as well as the administrative sector, but then there's the section I like to think is the most important and the one I like to call the think-thank sector.Yeah, I could go in there, guns blazing, geared up to the hilt with high-tech arms, but all that will do is to put Hazel eyes and my baby in danger.I don't want that.So I put together a five-man team, four of them, retired army veterans, for the brawn.A bit excessive, you say, maybe, but very necessary for this mission. I've studied face-impostor, and I think I know how he reasons and where he's coming from. As difficult as it is to admit, I believe he's related to me -probably a distant cousin - which is why we've got similar looks. He's also got an
ASH THUNDER HIDE AND SEEK
Chapter 73"ASH THUNDER, IF YOU ARE MAN ENOUGH, COME AND GET HER YOURSELF!" Face-imposter bellows.Rage, like I've never known before filters through me like hot spikes, making goose pimples rise all over my body.Fear, like I've never experienced, slams into me, making sweat pool on my forehead and palms, something that has never happened to me before either.Pity, the crippling kind, wells up inside of me as I see Alicia, head bent at an unnatural angle, pain tattooed all over her face.I don't overthink it.Heck - I don't think at all, I jump up."No, Ash, it's a trap, don't go!" Koldis whisper-shouts, but it's too late as I'm already striding toward face-impostor.I get within five paces of him and splay my hands wide. "Alright, you fucker, leave her alone and take me, I know it's me you want."He darts behind her immediately, keeping the gun pointed at her head, never once letting go of her neck as a smi
ASH THUNDER I DARE YOU
Chapter 74ALICIAImmediately we step inside the room, I sweep my eyes across the four corners, but no one is lurking and waiting to pounce on us. I would have relaxed were it not for the hair-raising feeling that someone was watching me, watching us, and waiting for the inopportune time to strike.As I get lost in the thoughts of someone sneaking up on us, I unknowingly step on Ash's sneakers. "S. . . sorry." He grunts but doesn't say anything. I know he feels it too. It pushes me to speak out in a rush. "There's no one here, let's just go."Ash freezes and then turns around slowly. As soon as his eyes land on me, I regret my statement. They look haunted. Yes, I know we've been hunted these past few months, but. . . there's something else in their depths.It's anger. He's angry at my words, angry at me for giving up so soon, for wanting to scurry away like a rat when it senses the cat is close by."You can
ASH THUNDER EXECUTING PLANS
Chapter 75ALICIAI'll do it.I'll do it.I'll do it.The words sound on repeat, in my mind, rankling me to no end. It feels like I'm underwater as I turn to face Ash, but he's already looking at me with that damn smirk sitting pretty on his perfect face."Don't you dare!" I say, lifting a finger and shaking my head. "I don't want -""Take her away," Ash says, still looking at me. I know he's trying to tell me, with his eyes that he has to do this, but I don't give a flying fuck for all that male ego bullshit. I just want to get out of here now - with him in one piece - and go home.I feel someone coming close to me, so I whip around. "Don't you dare touch me!" Koldis' head rears back, and he moves a step back from me. He stares at me like I've just slapped him. Not yet, but if he dares lay a finger on me, I just might."Please. . . baby." Ash's pleading tone brings my gaze back to his face, and I shake my
