Alex sat casually on the couch with her eyes close back at the safe house and listened while Damon is talking on the phone with Director Marshall on a Tuesday morning. She smirked when she heard him lowered his voice, sure that the director is now turning his anger on her.“Did you give Marshall my regards?” Alex asked with a smirk when Damon ended the call.A frown appeared on Damon’s face as he typed on his phone, his mouth set in a firm and angry line. By the look of it, she knew that he is holding his anger over something.“You deliberately ignored the instructions of not going to see your mother!” Damon finally exploded at her. He turned towards her his eyes filled with anger. “What is it with you on following orders, Alex?! F8ck you! Do you know the danger that you placed our family into?!”“I took extra steps to make sure that I’m not followed!” Alex answered back.“Marshall was able to!”“Because he knew me well enough to do that!!” She yelled at him.Damon’s eyes narrowed at
Zach stared at Buchanan furiously, his insides boiling when he realized that he has been bugged. He was able to find out when Elise went to his apartment yesterday afternoon and beeping sounds came from her device, that detects different types of bugs.He immediately had Elise and Gavin along with himself, checked his entire apartment from top to bottom. After an hour, he returned to the small office room and found five devices that could hear, track and intercept information sent to him.“Good to see that you’re still on your toes, then,” Buchanan only replied dryly.“You f8cking, conniving -,” Zach snarled.“He gets it!” Alex interrupted rudely as she stepped forward and looked at him haughtily. “Besides, if your mind is somewhere other than what’s under your pants, you would have known it immediately.”Zach turned his anger towards her and before he could stop himself, he had her by the neck and pushing her on the wall, his eyes filled with rage. He gripped her neck hardly when her
Alex casually looked at her watch and frowned when she’s been waiting for fifteen minutes already inside the room that she has been told to enter and wait. She stood up and walked around the room several times, her hand touching the wall surface lightly before finally stopping in front of the large viewing panel.She stared at herself, knowing that it’s a one-way glass and the one on the other side is for sure staring at her, studying her carefully. She moved a few inches to her left.What the f8ck do you want with me, Marshall? She thought hardly as she stayed on her ground for a long while. She crossed her arms and arched an eyebrow. Do you want me to stand here all night long or do you want me to show you something that you know I can do?“Game’s up, Marshall,” Alex finally said impatiently. She walked back to her chair and sat down. “I’m not going to play your game tonight. I can get myself out through that exhaust duct at the left corner and you’ll be waiting outside. You took th
Zach finally took off his helmet when the last man on his team finally appeared at their meeting place, three hours from the time they started scouting Gallagher Enterprise’s building. He nodded when Gavin informed Buchanan over the radio that his team are all accounted for.“Let’s head back to base,” he firmly instructed as he opened the car door.When he was about to go inside, his head abruptly turned at the sound of sirens. He rushed towards the corner of the street and watched the direction the cars are heading into.“Check with the station on its whereabouts,” he ordered his agent loudly. He pulled out his phone when he felt it vibrating and saw Damon calling on the line. “Montgomery.”“Head towards The Raven Pub,” Damon said immediately. “There’s trouble with the extraction.”The call then ended.Zach shouted at his team and they immediately took off. He cursed darkly, knowing full well that it has something to do with Alex. He doesn’t have to ask about it. The tone in Buchanan
Alex finally opened her eyes and stared at herself in the mirror, standing up.After taking off from the scene where she was ambushed by Saood’s men, she went to one place, which she only knows. A small house outside the city that she bought with cash from the money she had saved over her years of service.She turned on the tap and reached for the towel, hanging on the wall and let it soak with water. Carefully, she started to take off her clothes, breathing heavily at the pain she is feeling in her body. She finally resorted to cutting the fabric with the scissors she found in the drawer. She glanced when her phone on the counter rang and saw Damon calling.She ignored it.“Alex, promise me one thing if it ever gets to a drastic situation,” Julia told her one time when they were having a break. “If ever my life will be ended, do it with your bullet. I don’t want theirs. I’d rather die from yours.”“That’s not going to happen, Jul,” Alex argued lightly. “We’re not going to die early.

He turned as one of his agents approached him and relayed some updates.It was only Tuesday
Alexandra Walters had just pushed opened the door to the diner, she rans together with her aunt and younger sister, when she heard Malcolm’s litany that he will be giving her a piece of his mind. Another long and boring lecture, for sure.She rolled her eyes at that thought as she took off her helmet and stopped when she noticed that there was another person with them.“Oh, I’m pretty sure she’s just going to roll her eyes on you during your lecture.” She commented sarcastically.Ashley, her younger sister looked up with a relief expression on her face while the two men turned towards her. While Malcolm was giving her a frown, the man beside him was looking at her with curiosity and if she guessed correct, somewhat interested.“Where the hell were you?!”They looked towards the voice and Alexandra saw her aunt, coming out from the kitchen holding a wooden spatula and pointing it threateningly at Alexandra.
Alexandra woke up the following day at the sound of her alarm at four-thirty in the morning, reaching over the side table and turned it off. She remained still for a few minutes before finally sitting up and stretching her arms up.She finally got up and changed into her running clothes, putting over a grey hoodie and grabbing her cap before going out of her room.After making sure that she closely secured the service door where she went out, she put on her headset and pressed play on her phone. She then set her watch and started walking briskly for a while, doing some stretching before finally picking up the pace. She started running on her feet, her breathing synchronizing with her pace.She approached the uphill part of the city, and she adjusted her pacing before speeding up again. She ran a total of 10 miles in an hour and a half and she stopped over the park for a few minutes to take a breather before walking back home.Alexandra took a drink from t

Zach opened his eyes, squinting from the rays of the sun coming through the window, at the sound of his phone vibrating on the side table. He rubbed his eyes before reaching for his phone and stared at the time.F8ck! He thought when it read ten in the morning.He turned towards his side and saw Alex, with her back to him, still sleeping, her body going up and down steadily. His gaze traveled towards the scars on her back and remained there for a while.Most of her scars had already lightened on her skin and could only be seen if one scrutinizes it well. Those that are still visible were during her encounter a few weeks ago at the stadium and then he noted some small cuts as well that looks to be a day old.Dammit, Walters, he cursed in his mind, recalling the explosion last night. He sat up gently and looked down at his phone, seeing encrypted messages, which he knew came from Elise. Making sure that Alex won’t be alerted, he stood up slowly and picked up his shorts on the floor, put

She looked up and saw Zach hovering above her as he placed each hand on her side, trapping her.“What do you mean I have to keep him distracted the entire tomorrow?” Alex scoffed a few hours ago when Damon called her. She closed the door to the unit and proceeded to the kitchen, opening the ref and reached for a beer. “Damon, I went through one of my biggest nightmares and now that?!”“Colton informed me that he caught Elise sending an encrypted message to Montgomery,” Damon explained coldly. “Julia and Murray will be sneaking into his townhouse to bug all his tech. We need whatever info that he will be getting, Alex. You know that.”“Why does it have to be that tactic?” Alex asked. “I can just knock him out cold or spike his drink until we’re done. His phone’s got the tracker and bug as well. Shouldn’t that be eno
WARNING: This Chapter contains mature/sexual content. Read with discretion. Zach opened his eyes when he heard the elevator sound, the doors opening to Alex’s apartment floor level. He went out from the car and proceeded to her unit and then punched the security code to her door. He then went inside, securing the door by bolting it properly, he looked around the dimly lit unit before proceeding to the kitchen opened the refrigerator. He reached for a bottle of beer, opened it and downed it immediately. He needed the alcohol to calm his nerves and make him sleep immediately. Instead of staying for three hours as he had told Alex, he extended another two hours when aside from the gas leak that the investigators had found, one in the bomb squad team discovered three IED explosives. Zach then realized that those three were the reason why the entire building was wrecked. He frowned when he saw there was no more beer left inside the ref and then looked at the counter and saw four empty b
Alex struggled from Zachary’s tight hold as the building in front of her eyes is being engulfed in large flames and collapsing. She shouted in despair as there was another explosion and she tried to elbow him to loosened his hold on her.“Let go of me!” She shouted angrily. “Ashley! Aunt Vickie!”“Get a hold of yourself, Walters!” Zach yelled back at her. He pulled her back with his one hand while his other hand reached for his phone and pressed a number. “This is Montgomery. There’s an explosion here at Urban Diner and I need all responding agencies immediately!”Feeling herself weakening at the sight in front of her, Alex dropped on her knees, tears streaming down her cheeks unmercifully. She could hear Zach talking to her but she could hardly hear him as she watched the diner, she had painstakingly put up with her aunt go down from the flames.The sound of sirens can now be heard and when Alex turned at one direction a strong jet of water finally appeared and started putting out th
