KnightTonight being an important night had everyone of us on our guards. We had made the necessary preparations should anything go wrong. Angel had trusted Caspian and I with his safety and for that reason we went to any length to see that he returned home safely.I could hear the distinct chatter from Caspian as he gave out instructions to the men then he quickly dialed a number which I confirmed to be Camilo once she answered the call. What exactly was he trying to prove? I had a girlfriend as well... I scoff and move away a bit feeling guilty for not checking up on Cassandra. I didn't want to be distracted since Caspian had already entertained one.Caspian got off the phone and moved towards one of the cars where a little boy and girl sat bravely trying to cover up their fears. Petty wasn't he? He was always the petty one but I could tell he was feeling guilty for going that low, all thanks to Camilo's influence, he probably felt he owed her an apology for getting kids involved
Angel Fear filled the air as they others didn't know whose men they were while I felt relieved seeing they were my men. Knight came in last and I sighed in relieve seeing my bestfriend. What took him so long? Nevertheless I was glad he was finally here. "You're sorrounded. " Knight said to Sparrow and his men who were caught off guard by the sudden intrusion. They had broken the door from outside.I tried to move towards night but was suddenly sorrounded by Sparrow and his men who blocked me from moving further. A furious Sparrow got a small knife out of his pocket and my arms were grabbed by two other men."Let me through peacefully or try to move and I'll slit your bosses' throat. He threatened and knight seemed startled a bit. "Don't fucking listen to him, do what you have to do I'll be fine." I ordered. "Now!" I yelled seeing he was being hesitant. Sparrow quickly came behind me and my struggle to be free seized. He had the knife close to my throat and any careless movement co
TheaThe girls and I sat outside around two in the morning waiting for the men. None of us could asleep so we found comfort in each other. We sat by the stairs leading out of the mansion as we waited, Camilo had got off from a call with Caspian a while ago. Everything seemed to be going fine over there and it gave us a little relieve from our worry. I don't know what Knight and Caspian must have told Cassie and camilo but Angel had let me know that Sparrow would be present and that was the reason for my worry. I believed the girls had an idea that the casino wasn't a child's play this time around otherwise they wouldn't be out here with me and Cassie wouldn't be holding tight to her phone waiting for a call from Knight. "I don't think he'll be calling." Camilo said touching Cassie's hand gently. She sat in the middle and I had been resting my head on her shoulder. " Maybe you should call him if that would keep you at ease."She suggested and Cassie shook her head."If he wanted to s
Thea"Go ahead Florentine." He said and she nodded. I sat quietly like I said earlier and he had his eyes glued on me just like he said. I got tense as the minutes went by, but I couldn't help myself from looking at him each time he hissed in pain.It was torture watching him go through the pain of being stiched back together. Why didn't he allow anaesthetic? Did he just want to suffer me by letting me see him in pain?I know he tried to contain the pain as much as possible but I could see it that it hurt like hell. I wanted to look away at some point but the way he looked at me made me feel like I gave him some sort of strength.Looking at the white clothes that were used to clean his blood made me shiver, I kept my eyes locked on him as well not wanting to see the way Florentine stitched him up. His eyes were red from the pain he was enduring and I found mine pooling. I felt like I was being stitched up myself and it hurt that my heart that much that tears spilled out of my eyes be
Thea In shock, I raised my head quickly to look on the other side of the bed but I found no one then my eyes went across the room where I found a broad chest, tall, muscular man standing by the window. Hands in his short as he looked out the window. Fuck Thea! How did I get into his bed?I was livid, after saying I'd watch him the entire night I found myself waking up in his bed. Did he carry me here or did I sleep walk myself into his bed? The former would seem more true because I don't sleep and walk. Damn it! I panicked not knowing how to face him. I couldn't even quietly leave the room and I also needed to make sure that he was fine. As if he noticed that I was awake, Angel turned slowly to face me. He was shirtless and my eyes caught his bandaged chest. He looked down on it and back to me. I already had my hand palming my lips. The bandage had blood stains on it and I wondered if his wounds had ripped. "Did you have enough sleep?" Angel said breaking my attention."Did it r
TheaI stayed in my room the entire day and only had company when Cassie and Camilo had come to visit me. They noticed my uneasiness and had asked about it. I made up a weak excuse and I knew they didn't believe me. Florentine spent her day at the clinic tending to some of the injured guards. She was the only person I could open up to about what happened between Angel and I. Camilo would have been my first option since she was almost my bestfriend at this point but Cassie was here with her and I didn't want to raise her expectations. Knight and Caspian had returned later in the evening from their investigation on Sparrow's whereabouts and the girls had to go to their partners. Here I was, reminded of my sad love life. My mind was on Angel the entire day and now that I was alone, I felt very lonely. To think that he was the only one who could take away my loneliness yet I was hiding from him. I was also afraid that he'd come knocking at my door anytime but since he haden't showed up
AngelMy lips lengthened into an amused smile the moment Thea left my room, I bit my lip and let my hand feel her on my door. Her scent still lingered and I swear it drove me insane. Fuck....I should have kissed her more deeply but I was afraid she would resist if I went further. She was obviously confused about what she wanted and I was impatient to know how she truly felt about me. She cared about me, that I was sure of but what I didn't know was if she loved me as much as she used to. Thinking About it only made my heart constrict painfully. I wanted all her love just like I did before I put her through hell. I hoped that one day she could forgive me and love me as much as I have and will always love her. The stinging pain from my chest as a result of my injury wasn't much of a bother as I kept replaying images of Thea in my mind. Florentine came to tend to me this morning before going to the clinic and I couldn't subdue the urge to ask her about Thea. I wanted to go after he
TheaI had just told Florentine that I didn't have the courage to talk about the child I lost and then I heard Angel behind us. The fear that gripped me knowing that I had to talk about my pain and not just it but letting Angel know that he would have been a father. I knew this would hurt him and after everything that had happened I was scared to know how much it would. At least I got a chance to be with our child but he never got the chance to, what could be more painful? I really couldn't catch my breath with the shock I had just experienced from almost being caught, so when Florentine had wanted to leave me there with him I had to escape one way or the other by feigning annoyance when what I truly felt was relieve.I knew I had exposed one truth, which was the fact that he still owned my heart without even trying, I knew knowing this would change a lot for Angel and maybe me. What if he never let go?A loud knock startled me, taking me away from my thought. I turn towards my doo
