Married by a Couple of Shots Chapter LXI
The mansion was as Rossie remembers it to be, enormous and quiet as usual. The garden is filled with blooming roses. It was majestic in this mansion. Never would she think that she'd actually be back here again when she first got here. Fate was always playful and here she was back again with a different intention."Aren't you tired yet from your travel?" Rossie turns around and saw it was Veronica with her signature slit, glittery dress and maroon-shade lipstick. Stunning as always that even Primrose thought she was a goddess. Veronica replied to that saying she was more than a goddess."A little," she answers, looking back at the view as Veronica made her way to lean against the rail, facing the opposite direction. "I'm sorry for taking your spot," she told Veronica since the woman was always on this terrace. "I don't mind. There's plenty of space here. I can't possibly take it all."They giggled together. "I miss you, Veronica." It can't be helped. Rossie can't really figure out

Since that incident, Ellisa understood how her life could just end at any moment of the day. What happened that night still haunts her. From seeing their driver getting shot to seeing a gun pointed at her best friend's head and she couldn't do anything about it but cry. It was not what she had in mind but when you're in that moment, you just can't move at all."You okay, Ell?" Levius asked, noticing how Ellisa has spaced out. She's been spacing out often since that night. "Is it the incident again?""N-No," she replied. Levius sighed heavily, moving from his chair to where Ellisa was. He knows when she lies because she stutters. Sometimes she would look away. It's not like they haven't known each other. A week is even enough for Levius to get to know someone and decide if he ever wants the person. Men are like that. It won't take long for them to decide if they want to date someone."You know you can talk to me about it, love." He opened his arms wide and Ellisa was quick to embrace

Never in Veronica's life has she ever held a gun before because seeing one, triggers her to snatch one and shoot someone. And now Levius has asked her of that favor. He has no idea how much she hates to see guns and how dangerous she gets when she's held one.But since she's accepted it she has can't go back on her words anymore. Levius has that effect on her that she just wants to brag that she can do anything. She can but just not around guns. Who knows what ridiculous idea gets inside her head?Veronica sighs heavily, shrugging as she reaches for her phone. She scrolls down her list of contact and at the bottom, she sees her trusted person. She gave it a call. Fifth ring and it was answered. "You called, my lady? Is something the matter?""No, Harry. There's something that I am tasked to do," she told him. It's dangerous to send her men to train the ladies they abducted but who else can she trust around the important ladies? "Anything for you.""Remember the targets from last tim

After their brief orientation, they had lunch. Catherine unexpectedly joined them and was shocked to hear that they are having gun practice. "Are you going to be getting out of the property?" she asked, worriedly."No. We'll be in the backyard. The old shooting range used by the men when they're bored," Veronica answered. Catherine shoots her a familiar look and she knows what it meant. "I'll only be there to supervise. I am not touching a gun."Catherine looks away. She was aware of her daughter's obsession with shooting anything that pisses her off. Back when Veronica was little, they gifted her a toy that shoots those water balls. She was excited and careful at first but then she started aligning her toys and shooting them. They thought taking the toy gun would end it but when she started doing archery, she did the same. "Well if it helps, I'll supervise too."Veronica's cat eyes darted at Catherine. They look at each other intensely and even the others are starting to notice. Go

A couple of minutes into their training and another scene happen. Rossie pointed a gun at her trainer that made everyone stare. It didn't take long for them to recognize Harry had provoked the lady. He then said it was alright and Rossie said sorry.They all returned to their practice and Keille was bored as hell. He saw the one assisting Prim was getting too close. He takes a handgun and pointed it at one assisting Prim. "That is dangerous, young master." His assistant told him. He is well aware of that but it frustrates her to see her with another man getting close. Keille sighed heavily. "Did you bring a much bigger gun? M416?" "We were not told to bring the--""Don't worry about it. I'm bored." He tossed the gun back to the table and started walking away from the man. "Thanks anyway!"For the rest of the practice, Keille just stayed with Veronica and Catherine under a big shade. His eyes were on Prim all the time. And when the session was over, he stand up and went to Prim who

"How was practice today?" Levius asked Ellisa when he got home and went to their room to change. He is well aware that Ellisa was upset with him because it took him a lot longer than expected to return with the pack of water bottles. "Good. Thank you for listening to me," she coldly said. From that tone, they are still not okay. "How's your day? I am glad to see you safe.""I know you're still upset with me," he said.Ellisa's angry face turned to him, her lips in a pout and her forehead drawn together. Instead of getting annoyed by her, it made him laugh. She was always cute to him."Don't laugh!" she shouts."I told you I got caught up with Veronica. Look, you had your gun practice, it all worked out, love."Ellisa could not argue. It did work out. But something about Veronica earlier seemed suspicious and the way Catherine was trying her best to cover up how terrified she was that Veronica was going to hold a gun. Now that she thought of it maybe Levius knows."Is Veronica not all

In the second shooting session, Ellisa was fiercer, trying to hit the head of her target rather than just the damn chest. Her heart was about to burst out. This is the only time she can damn let it all out. She kept pulling the trigger so that when it run out she was still doing it. "You run out of bullets, miss." Her assistant slowly grabbed the gun from her. It was even hard to take her hands off it. "Do you want to reload?" "Yes, please," she answers. But then she remembers she can do that herself so she grabs the gun back. "I'll do it," she muttered, taking out the magazine and putting a new one there. "You are rather irritated than focused today, miss." She darted her eyes at the assistant and he raises both his hand. "I'm just saying it is not a good thing to shoot while you're angry." Ellisa was perfectly aiming at her target but the more she focused, the more she's mad. Before she could fire again, she put the gun down and faced her assistant. "You are annoying!" she gru

"Two of our men were shot," Levius informed Jared who was lazily looking at the pendulum on his desk swinging. He sighs heavily. The guy has been like that since this morning. "What the heck is wrong with you today? No energy to fight for your life or... you're blaming your ancestors who made this stupid tradition?"Jared sits up straight, his face plasters the same bored expression on it. Ah, he misses Rossie so much. It's been two days and he has not seen his wife yet. He can't even leave this office because assassins are on the lookout for him. "I have this immense tingle that I am now a prisoner at my own office. What infuriates me is that everyone is keeping me at bay.""Let me remind you, young master, that you personally said you don't want to kill anybody," Levius muttered. Jared was about to interrupt when he raised a finger, stopping the young master. "You said it's not very human to kill and your wife will hate you."Defeated, Jared closes his mouth, bends over, rests his

The wedding bells just rang and the newlyweds came out of the church doors. Ellisa was looking so beautiful in her wedding gown and she looks as happy as I was in mine. Well, thanks to my best friend I got married so unexpectedly and fell in love with someone who set me free from a toxic manipulated relationship. I had to through a lot just to witness this moment with the love of my life and four-year-old holding mine and Jared's hand. His name is Caleb and no we didn't decide on that, Veronica did. She said it was the perfect name for the kid. Jared and I got married after the tradition was finally cut off with the help of Derek and Lily Adler. It was also unprecedented but he is now engaged to Stephanie Montreal. For some reason, Derek gave me Kenneth and now Caleb and he are best friends.

Lara was summoned to the Corporal's house to check on Rossie. She just got the call and she immediately went. It has been a while since they saw each other and she heard that she has been kidnapped. And now she stands next to the Corporals waiting for Rossie to arrive with Jared and the others.The moment they see the cars, they all felt relieved and when they were finally in front and the doors opened, revealing those who went, the ladies cried. But what alarmed them was the fact that Rossie was unconscious, looking all pale, and worry was written all over Jared's face.Jared was assisted in getting the doors and they followed to the nearest room. Lara's kit was already there, and every apparatus she needed was ready in the nearest bedroom. Then she asked everyone out because she was also going to clean Rossie.When she was finally alone, she did her things and checked Rossie. The lady has weakened quite fast so she needed to insert some IV tubes because she was also dehydrated. She

Now that they had the exact location, Jared deactivated his live status and everything about the Corporal completely shut off, allowing no one to track whether his ranking remained or was replaced. He knew it was going to create a commotion but that is what he is trying to do. While they are on their way to the old rest house, Veronica finds herself decoding these codes from she knows who, Mister Sparacinos himself. He is trying to set a date and solicit half of the Corporal's property for Rossie. Veronica would do that if there were no other choice but they found and alternative and the men were already on their way to where he is. It's only a matter of time before all of this will be over. So she does her part and Keille too was helping her. They're hoping that if everything goes as planned, by tomorrow they will be able to hug Rossie again. If she had permission, she would've gone with them. It's different when she holds a gun, she could be useful but she rampages so nobody trus

In somewhere dark and stinky, Rossie and Kenneth were thrown by Garry's men into what seemed to be an attic of an old resthouse. It was full of dust and cobwebs. Unlike the room Derek got for her, this one has no light, no nothing and she was thankful the moon started to show and gave a little bit of moonlight. They have been in that car, traveling for so long and she feels thirsty. She was thankful Kenneth stayed by her side. At least she has company.She was so startled when her door flung open and then these big men came to get her. Kenneth barked and even tried biting one of them but he failed because he was so little they just tossed him. She had to cover him up and not let go of him. That's when Garry came and she knew he was a devil. They dragged them out of that mansion and into a car. No, here she is in wherever this place may be. "Don't worry, Kenneth." She pets the puppy who sleeps in her lap. "We'll be rescued and you'll return to Derek and I'll return home."It didn't

Papers on his desk, cold coffee on his side, Jared had fallen asleep on his desk again. He was so tired from trying to gain access to a blueprint of the Sparacinos' mansion. Spending hours staring at the screen had his eyes drooping and hurting so he was going to take a break and he fell into slumber.Now a knock on his door was disrupting his sleep and he groans, moving his arms and lifting his head. Ugh! His neck is stiff and he moved it side by side, groaning again. He hopes whoever comes inside has some good reason to wake him up."Come in," he said. The door flung open, revealing a breathless Keille. This kid was always so chill but who chase him that he's catching his breath?"I need to talk to you," Keille uttered. "You sound like some predator was chasing you," he remarks. "I went to the Sparacinos mansion and spoke with Rossie." Instantly Jared's eyes widened. Keille did something that reckless and he's in front of him unscathed. Jared was still shocked when Keille continu

From the second-floor terrace down to the long staircase and endless halls before the main doors, Veronica ran, breathless when she was outside. She just saw Keille driving a car and with unprecedented speed drove away from their mansion. She knows that Keille was not happy Rossie was still not rescued and he has been crept up by guilt. Raking her fingers through her hair, she could've done better. Early in the morning and they could lose another family member. What is Keille thinking?*It was so early in the morning but Keille couldn't wait anymore. He has been hearing Primrose cry for her sister and every time he sees her, his heart breaks. It is careless to just go straight into the Sparacinos' mansion but he could not think of any better way to do so. It doesn't matter if he gets shot. He deserves to be shot.The drive to the enemy's lair is an hour and a half drive but Keille got there in fifty with him accelerating every opportunity he could. It was like playing his game, only

Three days had passed and Jared still could not locate where they are hiding Rossie. They have infiltrated most of the Sparacinos' properties but there was still no sign of his wife. Soon enough they'll only have one choice but to check on their main mansion. The only problem is it was heavily guarded. It would be like two kingdoms going to war.He knows he is going to win it but there would be a lot of lives that can be lost. Their business affairs will be affected as well. It was only him, he would go and won't care for his life but he has to be practical too. He needs to carefully think this out. Rossie would need him alive.A loud knocking on his door interrupted Jared's thoughts, making him blink and back to reality. He coughs and composed his posture. "Come in," he said.When the image of Harry came in, Jared immediately stand up. This man was leading the search so his coming in would have some news."Young master." Harry bowed his head for a second and raise up. "We have search

Child? Keille asked in her mind. Rossie is pregnant? She has to go through all of these because of him. Whatever it is that he was feeling right now. Guilt or conscience? It was eating Keille. If he didn't help and agreed about the fake kidnapping, they would not move here, and Prim won't have to cry. "I have to do something," he mumbles to himself. Keille doesn't seem like it but he has a collection of useful spy tools. He has also learned how to lockpicks. He has been interested in it since he loves playing games. It's a fact that a game's situation is different from reality but the difference is not that far. He just has to remember that he won't respawn.Once he gets home, he'll find Rossie himself to make it up for agreeing to that plan, for Rossie being captured, and for Prim's cries. He just hopes that Rossie is still alive.*"How much longer until we can get out and look for dear Rossie?" Miriam cries again, wiping only the corners of her eyes with a silly handkerchief. "Oh

Everyone saw Jared drag Stephanie inside and saw worry written all over his face. Even mister Montreal was shocked to see them together. When he was out of his auto-pilot mind, he told everyone to stay inside while telling the men that they were holding a meeting.In Gerald's office, they gathered. Everyone was intrigued, their faces itching to know what was up with Jared."Mister Montreal, did you somehow have a fight with someone? Is there a bounty on your head?" Jared was always straightforward with anything especially now that he know someone was coming for them."No. I don't think there is someone after us nor did I do wrong to anyone," Gerald answered. "What is all of this, Jared?""Is someone after your daughter?""No. There is no one with that we had an argument for many years now.""Then why was someone aiming at her earlier?""Someone is here?" Both Levius and William asked in chorus. Gerald now worries and like Jared's reaction earlier anger crossed their faces."Do you hav
