The private jet is out of fuel, which inevitably means that I have to make an emergency landing.
With me being Wanted, this is going to be hard.“How far are we from London?” James asks frantically.This is serious, but it seems comical watching James react like this. He is almost always stoic and nonchalant. But he is genuinely afraid for his life and for ours too.I check the coordinates and I realize that we have been flying for a while now, for we are literally in London already.“We’re here, we’re in London.” I tell him and he takes in deep and steady breaths to calm himself.I take my seat at where the pilot is to sit and I begin to take the plane off auto pilot.I have not been in London for years, but my memory is still sharp and I can remember a lot.“If we can remain flying for about..” I say as I look at the watch on my wrist.“For about nine more minutes, then we would be able to reach an oJames despite how he was “alarmed” at first is now calm though we are going towards the runway with growing speed.“Any ideas?” I seek from James and he looks deep in thought.“Okay. To begin the slow flight maneuver, clear the area and gradually reduce thrust from cruise power and adjust the pitch to allow the airspeed to decrease while maintaining altitude. As the speed of the airplane decreases, note a change in the sound of the airflow around the airplane.” James informs me and I gape.What the hell? This is impressive!“Wow.” I say and he shrugs with a smile.“That is, if my memory serves me right.” He replies.“No, you’re absolutely right. That would work!” I say with hope in my voice.“So let’s start with reducing thrust from the cruise power.” James say and we do exactly that.After we follow his instruction, nothing much changes.“It’s not working.” I complain and he blinks rapid
“This is private property.” I hear one of them says as they walk closer to us.I’m contemplating on running, but that won’t be such a wise idea considering these people have German shepherds.“Should we run?” Carlos asks and I shake my head as to say no.I can still hear the sirens getting louder and the police have not arrived yet, so that means that these men are just normal security guards stationed at the airfield.“I will handle this.” I say as both men walk towards the wired fence, when they reach it, I notice that there is a gate not too far from where we climbed.We must have been in so much rush that we didn’t notice it.They both have huge winter jackets over their uniforms, for it is cold.I don’t really feel the cold though, it might be the adrenaline still coursing through my veins.Once the gate is opened, both guys walk up to us and they study us.“What were you all doing in there?” The b
We all walk into the house and we are led to our various rooms. Robert and I share a huge room while the others have a bedroom all to themselves.It is already getting dark and Robert just came from a shower.His hair is wet and his upper body is uncovered while his lower one has a white towel wrapped around him.“That was a much needed shower.” He comments and I smile.I have a laptop on the bed and I am trying my best to get to Russell, but no luck.Chad too has been trying but it’s like the man just dropped off the face of the earth.“Have you gotten to him yet?” Robert asks as he searches in the closet for something to wear.The closets are conveniently filled with clothes for Robert and I, really nice ones that fit perfectly. What a coincidence.“Nope.” I say, popping the p.“I think I am going to try calling in the living room, it has better reception.” I say and Robert sighs loudly, as if somethi
After a few seconds of silence, the Lieutenant finally speaks.“Is that so now?” He asks, and I feel like I’m being questioned by a lecturer at college.“Yes, I can email it to you this moment.” I reply.Chad eyes look hopeful as he watches me speak to the Lieutenant.“This is a pleasant surprise, I didn’t expect you to get the job done this soon.” He confesses.“I must applaud you.” He compliments and a sense of guilt washes over me.The Lieutenant was clearly not killed by me, I am just taking credit for what I did not do. “Are you still there?” Russell asks and his words pulls me from my thoughts. I think he said something, but I did not quite catch it.“I’m here..I’m here.” I answer.Chad is giving me a look. I’m guessing he is wondering why I froze up while talking to Russell.“I said that you should do that, email the proof to me.” Russell says calmly.“Of course, sir. I would d
When we break the kiss, he has a pleased look on his face as he holds my hips loosely.James and Carlos look amused for Chad is attempting to dance, which is a disaster.“Did you two win the lottery or something?” Robert asks and I scoff playfully.“The lottery has nothing on us...we literally just hit the jackpot!” I celebrate and Robert gapes slightly.“You mean...is it the million dollars?” He asks and I shake my head as to say no.“Not million, Robert. A freaking billion dollars!” I say and he gasps.A look of relief and bliss crosses his face as he pulls me in for another kiss.“That means you’re retired, right?” He asks once we break the kiss and I nod.He then releases me and starts to dance too. It is very comical to see he and Chad try to dance, especially when there is no music playing.James walk to me and speaks.“May I see the laptop?” He gestures towards the machine on the bed.
I have never felt this angry in a very long time.“Ma’am, are you alright?” One of the waiters walk up to me and asks.I don’t reply, I simply tip the coffee cup over, causing the content in it to spill.Every single person in the coffee shop is looking at me with baffled looks.I take in a deep breath and I march out of the place.I don’t think I would ever be served there again, but I don’t give a damn.Oh, I’m so sorry for Jen. She decided to make an enemy out of the devil. I will not only make her pay, I will make every person she cares about to suffer.Starting with her stupid uncle, Charles. I will kill him with my bare hands.No one cons me and gets away with it! ***Jen’s POV***Today is Saturday and damn, I feel great!I am a billion dollars richer and I am in the UK with the man I love, what could be better?Life is good.“Where are you heading?”
What is this man doing?I try to push him off me, but he resists. He is strong, and heavy.“Get off me.” I say as I struggle to push him off. He moan when my knee hits his groin and I continue my struggle.“James, get the hell off me!” I yell and my assassin instincts kick in.I knee him hard in the stomach and he doubles over. He removes himself immediately from over me and falls to the couch.“Crap.” He cries in pain as he holds his abdomen and I stand to my feet.“What the hell was that, James?!” I yell in anger. He balls up and groans in pain as he avoids looking at me.Despite him already being in pain, I give him a solid kick in his face and he falls to the ground with a thud.“I swear, you try that crap next time, I will murder you.” I threaten him as he holds where I just hit him, which is his jaw.I watch him in disgust as he tries to stand up from the floor, but he seems disoriented.
I wake up from the couch and I walk towards Chad. Robert and Carlos observes the bruise on James’s jaw as we leave.Chad leads me to his bedroom and we both sit on the bed.“Are you ready to tell me what really happened?” He asks and I chuckle nervously.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I say as I try to loosen my messy bun, allowing my hair to fall to my shoulders.“Jen...don’t play with me. James did not fall, did he?” He inquires and I clear my throat.“See, I know when you lie, you have a tell. It’s a very small one, but it’s there. Every time you lie, you do it.” He explains and I am intrigued.Really?He is very observant, I will give him that, for even I didn’t realize that I had a tell.“What’s the tell?” I ask him as I purse my lips.“I’m not telling you. You would just find a better way to lie the next time.” He says and I chuckle, for he is right.“Now, spit it out. What hap
