Days passed by and tonight is the night I’ve been waiting for. After four years of waiting, we will finally meet again.
I was wearing my black leather jacket when my phone rang.
“Kendra,” I answered the phone while I’m still busy finishing my look with the black boots I used to wear this time.
“The key was on the shelves inside your room Jada, good luck.” She uttered before ending the call.
I smiled at the thought of the Bugatti that I will be using for the race. I quickly entered the room and find the key, excitement fills me again when I found it, not because of the car that I will be using but rather the events that await me there.
As expected my jaw almost dropped when I reached the parking lot and finally see the car, after a couple of attempts to see this personally was always ended up interrupted by someone or something.
I drov
“Back off Coleman! Don’t put your nose into someone else’s business!” Russo roared while still pointing the gun at me.As I glance at Achilles, he’s looking at me and smiled a bit. Is he making fun of me? Why he’s still cool for all of this happening.“That woman is my business, Russo.” Achilles’ stern voice echoed. No one’s moving, I can feel Russo’s heartbeat as well.When I thought Russo’s too distracted, I immediately turned around and twisted his arms strangles me. I kick him at the back as hard as I can making him fall on the ground.“That’s a nice move.” It’s Achilles' voice and when I faced him, I gulped when I realized how close he was.Shifting my gaze back at Russo, Achilles’ men were holding him.Rolling my eyes from him, I
Dialing Kendra’s number while I was smiling like an idiot, though my hands were a bit trembling.“Hey, Jada, why didn’t you go home last night? Where are you?” She continously asked.“Hey please let me speak first.” I remained my voice in a low tone and tell her what happened.“So you’re in Achilles’ condo now?” She asked hysterically.“Yes, and I want you to get me out of here. I’m locked in a storage room.” I replied.“Alright, but how am I supposed to do that?” She asked back.“What the f*ck Kendra?” I grunted.“Right, Caleb is here. He will help us.”“What is the man doing there?” I asked.“It’s not important for now Jada, but don’t yo
Quickly turning my back, a man wearing a black shirt and jeans greeted me, his silver piercing reflected on the lights highlighting his well-formed facial features.“Martini.”“Aren’t you gonna hug me, Jada? It’s been too long since we met!” He exclaimed.Rolling my eye from him, I went back to my seat and ask for another shot of Margarita.“Woah, you haven’t changed. Still, the feisty Jada Turner I knew!” I felt his presence right next to the stool beside me.“Shut the f*ck up Martini.” I glared at him.“Hey give me some news, what happened? Why didn’t you show up after the race? Losing is part of a race Jada, there are still upcoming competitions! You don’t have to go here so you could move on, acceptance is the key. We’re still learning, and creating
“What the f*ck are you doing here?” I growled with eyes still widened.“I should be the one asking you that right?” He shot back and sip on the coffee I served.“Stop running away from me Jada, don’t forget that I’m Achilles Coleman. I have all the connections.” He added before shifting his gaze on me.“F*ck off.” I snarled and quickly walk away from him and entered the kitchen immediately, I can hear my own heartbeats, seems like it wants to get out of its cage.“Hey Jada I heard what you did earlier with those morons, they deserve it!” Henry commented while smiling widely at me.I ignored him and entered the locker room to change.How did he know I’m here? Damn.“Hey, Jada, something wrong?” Taken aback when Henry speaks, he looks
As soon as I arrived at Kendra’s penthouse, I packed my things quickly and dialed Trinity’s number.“Trinity.”“What happened earlier, Jada? You lost your connection didn’t you?” she asked.“Someone showed up sorry about that. By the way, do you have any news about Kendra?” I asked back.“Did the kidnappers call you already?” I added.“No, and it’s quite bothering me that they’re not calling. If they want money, it’s not a problem but it seems like they want you, Jada.”I closed my eyes to control the rage that started to build inside me again.“It’s that Coleman isn’t it?” I asked full of conviction.“I don’t think so, Jada.”My forehead crease
“You must be kidding me.”Right, this is just a f*cking prank.“No, someone left you in front of our house and we only adopted….”“You don’t have to get this far if you want me to leave dad.” I cut him off.“Jada look…”“So that’s why?” I asked. I understand now.“You may never tell me sooner but I always feel it day by day. I know every time I’m bullied and feel an outcast, something is off. Because no matter how bad I am, you should not treat me that way.” It’s almost a whisper but loud enough for them to hear. Shifting my gaze at Macy and Paris, I felt tears slowly flow down my cheeks. I told myself that they won’t see me cry but please be this day an exemption, the pain was too heavy to carry. I badly need a release.
The phone slipped from my hands, I was shaking uncontrollably, along with the tears that consistently escapes from me.“I-I’m sorry Kendra, it’s all my fault.”Taken by the light approaching and a sound of an engine, my vision slowly fades as well.***“Where am I?”Along with the confusion was followed by the sounds of waves. My forehead automatically creased as I try to remember what happened last night.“K-Kendra. I have to save her.” I immediately look at the clock near the bed, the kidnappers only gave me 24 hours. I have to move now.I set aside all of my questions why am I in this unfamiliar place, and how did I able to get here. I stand up and get my phone on the study table.“Where do you think you’re going?”I froze to
I quickly made a U-Turn when the kidnapper texted me the address. I forwarded the message to Trinity and left a note that they have to track this car and entered the place after 15 minutes I get there. I don’t want to put Kendra’s life at risk, but if I have to ask for their help, I don’t know what awaits me there. I’m not that stupid to obey his rules, I wasn’t born yesterday.I checked the car’s compartment and smiled to see a gun inside.After checking the time, I maximize my speed. I only have an hour to get there. As I get closer to the place, I can’t help but be nervous. I don’t know what they need from me.As long as I arrived at the place, I roamed my eyes to see no one. Is this the right place? The address was right. I hide the gun on my boots so I could easily grab it, I was trained twice using guns, so this won’t be that hard for me. I just
