IN THE MIDST OF ENEMIES

last update Last Updated: 2023-07-21 09:19:27

As she heard that the meeting was about to come to an end, Queen quietly tiptoed back into her room, closing the door.

She placed her hand on her chest as tears began to fall from her eyes. She was in the midst of enemies, and she thought they were her allies.

The Wild Stallions had taken her parents and killed everyone in her gang. This meant that her life was in danger and Bryce had been using her. So much for being in love with her.

Now she knew she couldn't go back home. If they had killed everyone and taken her parents, it meant even their mansion wasn't safe. What was she going to do?

She recalled what Bryce's father had said earlier and realized that the safe house must be where her parents were kept.

If only she could rescue her parents, then everything would go back to normal. Her father was extremely strong. If she could rescue him, they would get back all that had been taken from them.

She thought about what to do and looked out through the window. She saw the truck downstairs and realized that it was what Bryce was expected to drive out of the building.

"I need to get out of here," she said to herself. She knew there was no way she could make it out through the door because of the cameras. She was on the fifth floor, and it was a high building.

However, she had to get down. She went to the wardrobe, took off the pajamas she was wearing, and wore a pair of black jeans that Bryce had kept there, along with a black t-shirt.

She checked around for a weapon but couldn't find any. She took all the clothes that were in the wardrobe, tied them all together, and formed a rope. Afterward, she tied it to the window and began to descend slowly. She couldn't find any shoes in the room, so she was barefooted. She kept moving down slowly until she was finally at the bottom.

While she was there, she remained by the wall, looking around. She saw that there were underlings moving about and guarding the area.

She couldn't let them see her. She began moving by the wall until she got to where there were cars. She rolled her body and moved under one car, walking on her belly. She moved from car to car until she got to where the truck was.

She stared at the truck and realized that it was locked. She wanted to pick the lock, but there were two guards around. She observed their movements and saw that every few minutes they changed their positions.

During that time, their eyes turned away from the truck. She waited until they turned and immediately ran to the truck, picked the lock, and went in, leaving it unlocked.

She stood inside, by the side of the truck, her heart beating very fast, knowing that if it was discovered that the truck wasn't locked, she would be in big trouble.

While she was in there, she kept peeping out through a small hole by the side of the truck, but she could barely see anything.

Eventually, though, she heard Bryce's voice as he said, "Let's go."

Bryce got into his car with a few of their underlings, and a driver got into the truck and began to drive. She heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that they would not find out about her presence until they finally arrived at their destination.

She looked at what they were carrying in the truck and was surprised to see different brown boxes. Her first thought was that they were carrying illegal substances, which was why they were doing it so late at night. But as they passed through different checkpoints, they were allowed to move because of their connections.

When they finally arrived, the door to the truck was opened, and she stood by the side. She heard one of them say, "I can't believe this door was unlocked."

Bryce asked, "Who did that? Who left it unlocked? Do you know what you almost did?"

"I swear, boss, I left it locked," one of them replied.

"Anyway, it doesn't matter. Get the goods out," Bryce ordered.

Queen stood by the side, waiting as they began to take out the cartons one after the other. One of the men finally got into the truck to take out the rest of the boxes, and when he saw Queen, he wanted to scream.

However, she kicked him in his balls, covered his mouth, and quickly snapped his neck. Afterward, she jumped out of the truck.

She came face to face with another underling and punched him, knocking him out immediately. As she opened one of the cartons, she was shocked to see a young girl inside.

"They are trafficking humans," she could not believe her eyes.

Her father had made it clear that this business was prohibited. Could this be why the stallions wanted to get rid of them?

She checked all the cartons and saw different little girls curled like balls. They were all unconscious, and some of them had turned cold.

She didn't know what they had given to them. At this point, she understood why the cartons were really big. Right at this point, she heard one of the guards scream and say, "There's an intruder!"

She quickly ran and went into hiding. They began firing shots at her, but she remained hidden while they all went toward her location.

She was able to sneak to the back of the building. She wanted to get into the safe house, as she believed her parents would be there. But there were just too many men, and she didn't stand a chance.

"I need to get one of those guns," she said to herself, but she didn't know how she was going to do it.

Eventually, she began to hear loud gunshots.

"There's another intruder!" one of the underlings called out.

"Another intruder? Who could it be?" she wondered. Did they have other enemies? She heard more shots being fired at the men and how they screamed and fell.

However, one of the men got closer and she began to run again. He chased her relentlessly. Perhaps he thought she was working with the second intruder. He finally reached her and was about to point his gun at her, but she threw a stone at him, which she had picked up, and jumped on his body, beating him to a pulp.

She picked up his gun when he became unconscious and ran out from there.

When she came out, she saw some other men running towards the cartons to pick them up and began to shoot at them. She kept shooting until she ran out of bullets.

"Hello, Princess," a voice said from behind her.

She turned and saw Bryce. He was pointing a gun at her. She raised her hands in the air and began to move backward.

He said, "Wow, you're really something, aren't you?"

"How dare you? You took my parents, you bastard!" she cursed.

He laughed, "Yeah, I needed something important from them. I was going to let them rest in their graves after taking them."

"You deceived me. I can't believe that I loved you." Queen said.

"Love? Are you a fool? Come on! That's the height of stupidity." Bryce mocked.

"You're trafficking children. It's against the rules." Queen reminded him.

"Well, that ended last night. My father is now the leader of all the gangs, so we now make the rules. Yes, for fifty years, you all were lame ducks who ruined all our businesses.

We weren't able to make enough money. But that ended yesterday. All the gangs even want you and your family out of the way because you're all weaklings.

It's quite unfortunate that I have to let you go now. I thought I could string you along for a little longer, but I guess this is goodbye."

He was just about to pull the trigger when Queen closed her eyes as the sound of a gunshot erupted in the air.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Bryce on the ground, bleeding. He had been shot in his clavicle. A man rushed towards her. She had never seen him before, but from the way he looked, she could tell that he was a cop.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

She nodded.

"Are you one of the girls who was taken?" He asked again.

Queen shook her head.

"Okay, come on. Help me. We need to get these children out of here," he said.

Without thinking twice, Queen went with him, and they loaded all the cartons that were taken out of the truck right back into the truck.

Afterward, the cop got into the driver's seat and asked Queen, "Can you shoot?"

She replied, "Yes."

He handed her a gun, instructing her to stay at the back and shoot at anyone who tried to follow.

She nodded, took the gun, and got into the back of the truck. She stood inside, leaving the door slightly open so she could observe from inside. Two cars began to chase after them, and as the cop had instructed, she began firing shots at their tires until they could no longer move.

Once finished, she closed the truck door, sat inside, and let out a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, she remembered her parents, "Oh no, my parents! I need to save them!"

She started pounding on the truck door, shouting, "Stop this truck! Stop it right away!"

However, the cop refused to stop.

Frustrated, Queen opened the truck door and jumped out of it.

As soon as the cop heard the doors swing open, he stopped the truck and stepped out.

Seeing Queen about to walk away, he said "Stop. We are in a very dangerous location, young girl. What are you doing?"

"I need to go back. My parents are back there," she replied.

"There are no humans back there," he said.

Confused, she exclaimed, "But that's the safe house! My parents have to be there."

He explained, "Yes, but they are not. That place is just filled with dead bodies of children. Come on, we need to go. I'll tell you more about it."

Queen looked behind and realized that more cars were coming after them. Without wasting any more time, she got back into the truck and the cop did the same.

Just as the truck moved, the cars got closer and began to shoot at them. Queen hid behind the door cocked the gun she was holding and began to shoot back.

Bryce was shot? By who?"The underling who called him said, "Well, I can't really tell, Stallion. There was a man and a girl, I think she was Queen, Queen Scorpion.""Queen Scorpion? How is that possible?"Christopher hurried to the room where Queen was earlier kept. He held the handle and realized that the door was unlocked. He pushed the door open and saw that it was empty.

    Shawn stared at Queen with surprise in his eyes. She seemed really brave for a girl who was just eighteen. As he looked at her before she walked away, he realized she was beautiful—too beautiful to die, he thought. Perhaps she knew what she was doing, but he felt she was being impulsive. She must really be upset about what happened to her parents, that she was not thinking about her own life. She was just too stubborn and he hated people who did not listen.There was nothing else he could do. He had a mission to carry out, and he needed to focus on it. So, he remained there and watched her as she walked away in the white T-shirt he had given to her, along with her black pants and the sneakers he had bought.The knife she had taken from his house was in her back pocket, and she moved closer to the wall and began to walk beside it. From where he was, he kept looking at the underling at the gate, wondering if he could see her, but he didn't. Perhaps she knew that he wouldn't be able to

    Shawn and Queen left the waterside and ran to the road. They knew that the Stallions were still on their trail, so they had to get to a safe location as soon as possible."I have a house that's closer to this place," Shawn said to her.Queen looked at him and nodded. In no time, they were able to hitch a ride. Initially, she had wanted them to take a taxi, but Shawn said it was better to hitch a ride. So, a good Samaritan drove them to their location.Shawn thanked him before he left, and they made the remaining journey on foot while running.When they arrived at his house, Queen asked, "Why did we have to hitch a ride?"He said, "Because I don't need them tracking the vehicle we used.""Oh, okay, it seems you have houses scattered around.""Well, this is not really a house, it's just somewhere I come to chill and workout sometimes, but you're right. I do have more than eight apartments in this city." Shawn said."What? Eight apartments? You're just one man. Why do you have so many ho

    Christopher paced up and down, waiting for good news. After a while, he called the men he had sent and asked, "Have you gotten them? Do you have the flash drive?""Not yet, Stallion," the underling replied. "We were told that they're now at the market, we'll soon be there. Once we get there, we'll surround them and get the flash drive. You will get good news from us very soon."Christopher hung up and sat down, "Just you wait, Queen. Once I get a hold of you, I'm going to break your neck with my hands."From the shop where they were hiding, Queen noticed some of the thugs and realized that more had appeared."Oh no!""What is it?" Shawn asked."They're more men here. I knew it, I said it, I saw them.""Shh, just relax," Shawn said. "Remember, we're pretending to blend in. They won't know we are here.""I know, but it seems they're searching the shops one after the other. Why don't you call for backup? You're a cop, after all.

"I grew up in an orphanage. When I was in high school, I had this friend, Jasper. He was charming and cute; all the girls loved him. He was a jovial and carefree guy. His dad was a billionaire. They had so much money.He took a liking to me, and we eventually became the best of friends; we were so close, almost inseparable.

Christopher asked."They got away. We searched the whole market thoroughly but could not find them."Stallion angrily pushed the girl who was on his lap away and got up, "Why are you all so useless? You mean you already had the flash drive, and you let them leave with it?""I'm sorry, Stallion. The thing is, we were taken unaware. The girl in question has someone helping her: a cop.""She's working with a cop? Who is he?" Stallion asked."That is what we're trying to find out," the underling replied."What about the couple?

    Shawn began to feel sleepy and got up. He looked at Queen and said, "I'm going to bed. Goodnight, Queen."As he began making his way inside, Queen looked around at the water and decided to sleep as well since she had a lot to do the following day.She followed him, went into the room, and asked, "Where will I sleep?"Shawn looked around and said, "You can have the bed, I'll use the other room.""Thanks," she replied.He came out of the room and went to the other one, but when he opened it, he was surprised to see that it was filled with tools. He stood there for a while, thinking of what to do, realizing that taking out all the tools was going to take much of his time.Worse, there was no bed in the room. It had been a long time since he used the boat, so he didn't realize how much things had changed.He came out, picked a chair, and sat down on it, leaning his head against a pillar.

    RIAThree months later, Anthony and I held hands as we walked on a field. We had gone there to have a picnic because we wanted to try something different.For weeks, Anthony had taken me to all the fancy restaurants in different parts of the world, but today I craved something simple. A meal with just the both of us while enjoying a serene environment. As we walked toward where our seats had been prepared, I stared at the lilies decorating the field and smiled. "This place is beautiful. Anthony, how did you discover it?"He circled his arms around my waist and pulled me closer, "That's a secret I am not going to expose." I chuckled, I had thought he wanted to say something else. We stared at each other for a while before I briefly kissed him, "You know, in spite of how much time has passed, Anthony, this still feels like a dream.""Why?" He asked me. I shrugged, "I found love, Anthony. I never thought I could, but I found love in not just anyone but you; Anthony Baltimore, the bigg

    ANTHONYI stared at Ria, who was on her knees, and my heart ached. I didn't want to do this to her, but I needed to be sure. Yes, I could feel her love for me, and I could see how desperately she did what she thought was best to save my life.I was deliberately putting up a front, but my heart was racing. I wanted her to tell me how much she loved me. I wanted her to tell me that she wanted to be with me.This was the first time in my life that I had felt this way about any woman. Yes, if it was anyone else, I would have killed them for daring to come into my house and poison me.But this was Ria, the girl I was madly in love with. I had to act a little bit but the more she confessed her feelings for me, the more my resolve broke. In the end, I could not bear to see her in pain anymore, and I had to let her down from where I hung her. I also dropped the gun I was holding. Ria said she wanted to be by my side. She wanted to be mine, what else could I ask for? I had everything else at

    RIAMy heart was thumping loudly as Anthony pointed his gun at me. He asked me how I thought everything was going to play out and I pondered over his question for a minute. I had also never tried to look at the end, I was mainly focused on saving Anthony but if only he could get past his feelings of anger and need for revenge. If only he could see me like he used to, then everything would be fine.... something suddenly occurred to me and I raised my eyes. "Hold on," I said to him. "You just explained now that everything was planned by you. I mean, while I thought my plans were being carried out, you were the game planner. What about all those things you said to me? The way you made me feel, the promises you made.Saying you love me, saying you were going to spend the rest of your life with me. Was that all a plan? Was it just to watch me make you fool of myself? Will you achieve your aim in the end? I mean, yes I knew I was no saint but regarding my feelings I never...""Yes and no,

    RIAI continued to stare at Anthony in surprise while my arms and legs hurt. I didn't know how long I had been tied up for but I was sure it had been more than two hours. I didn't understand what was going on. Anthony Baltimore?How could I have been so wrong about him? The things that happened between us from the moment I met him played over and over in my mind yet I could not understand how it turned out differently because things did not add up."Confused?" He asked and I nodded.He lowered his gun and said, "Okay, we have enough time. We can delay your execution. Now where do I start?Before you showed up at my house, sweetie, I already expected you. I was ten steps ahead at all times and it was fun watching you all play your part in trying to bring me down and steal my wealth. Hmm...I must have seemed really stupid and easy to you all.""But how...how?""How could I achieve all of that and steal look oblivious? Is that what you are curious about?" He smirked. "Ever heard of the B

    My eyes widened in fear as I reached for my gun, moving my hand closer to the pocket of my pants. however, Hale's warning voice rang from behind me."Don't even think about it, if you do not want me to blow up your brains. What did I tell you, Ria?A day of reckoning finally came. Now, where is your prince charming? He's gone and left you all alone."His words struck me as I realized that Anthony could really be gone from this world."What did you do to him?" I asked and he angrily slapped my cheek from behind."I said shut the hell up, Ria. Still pining over him even at a time like this? What happened to you?"I knew Hale was not going to let me live but I wasn't going to make it easier for him. This was what I thought.I lifted my right hand, wanting to strike his face with my elbow, however, I felt a sharp pain in my head as he knocked me unconscious with his gun.As darkness slowly engulfed me, he covered the hood over my eyes and that was it.When I opened my eyes, we were at the

    RIAAnthony stared at me and shook his head, "What is happening to you, Ria? We came here to have fun and not for you to become crazy. This is not funny anymore.""I wasn't trying to be funny, Anthony," I cried. "Why wouldn't you believe me? Why do you think I would joke with something like this?"He scoffed, "Believe you? Have you looked at the way you're acting, Ria? I don't get it, we came here to have fun and enjoy our lives, but you've been acting weirdly ever since we arrived.What do you mean by our lives are in danger? You're not making any sense." I nodded, "Okay, didn't you hear the gunshot earlier?"He smiled, "That sound earlier? That wasn't the sound of a gunshot.""Come on Anthony," I urged him. "Even you admitted to me back then that....."He shook his head, "Listen, Ria, let's not do this, okay? I don't know what is going on with you and you obviously don't want to share it with me, but I think you just need to rest and get yourself together, and you'll be fine okay."

  • QUEEN SCORPION   YOU WILL BE NEXT

    RIAI was in no mood for what Anthony wanted. How could I be when the place I had thought would be a safe haven for us suddenly turned out to be easily accessible to our enemies? I still could not understand why the New Order found us so quickly and how they were able to see what was happening inside the villa. Did Anthony tell anyone about our trip? I was going to ask him about it. Perhaps he told someone close to him and there was a possibility that this was the same person who wanted him dead. But who could it be?My heart was still beating very fast. Nevertheless, I smiled and threw my arms around his neck, kissing him fiercely before going on my knees. I pulled down his briefs and looked up at him, our gazes locked briefly before I began to pleasure him.I opened my eyes almost two hours later and got up from the bed. I was exhausted not just because of the trip but also the rigorous sex Anthony and I had before I fell asleep. He was almost insatiable.Due to the kind of life I

    RIAI opened my eyes when morning came and began to get ready for our trip. I had barely slept a wink because I could not stop thinking about Hale's next line of action. I had barred him from calling me but I knew that was not enough to stop him.I quickly made breakfast while Anthony got ready. We had breakfast together and began to leave. Anthony took my luggage from me, saying everything he needed was in the city we were heading to.Just as we got outside, I spotted Trisha who had just walked into the compound. My heart skipped when we made eye contact. In spite of everything Anthony had said about her, I felt guilty because now, Anthony was leaving her for good and that was because of me."Are you guys going somewhere?" She asked, staring at the both of us in surprise."Hey Trisha," I managed to say before heading toward Anthony's car.She scoffed and rolled her eyes, "Oh really? Feeling like the boss already? Bitch!"I ignored her words as I pretended not to have heard them."Wha

    Hale could not believe what had happened. He stared at his screen in shock and called Ria again. However, she hung up on him.He threw his phone on the couch and yelled, "Bitch!"He paced up and down, trying to figure out what the problem could be. Did Ria's words mean she wanted to turn against the New Order or was she simply expressing her anger at him?He concluded that it had to be the latter. Ria was a smart girl and definitely knew the implications of rebelling against her superiors. He decided to calm down. Ria was eventually going to crawl back to him and that would be the perfect time to carry out his revenge.Meanwhile, Ria picked up some items from her bedroom and walked slowly towards Anthony's room. Her heart was racing because she knew what Hale was capable of. However, she had crossed a line she could not go back from and had no choice but to get herself ready.When she entered the room, she saw Anthony asleep. She stared at him and said in a low voice, "I'm going to p
