Diana heaved a sigh, thinking of the question now felt awkward, she had always thought she’d be the one asking. She wasn’t certain if any of the answers floating in her mind was the right one, she didn’t want to say something that might come back to bite her in the ass. “I don’t have an answer to that question, Simon. I literally don’t want to say the wrong thing,” Diana finally replied after much brooding, it was better she didn’t answer at all than saying the wrong thing. Simon nodded positively, he had an understanding look on his face; he himself didn’t have the answer to the question, and he also didn’t know whether to think positively or negatively. Was he going move on this quick? Not until he got his revenge, Simon thought. However, Simon’s understanding face didn’t go down well with Diana, she felt she had hurt him with her words. She closed the gap between them and placed her hands on Simon’s lap. Gazing at him with an ‘I didn’t mean it that way’ look on her face. Their
Nick sat upright when he saw the seriousness on Nathe’s face, he moved his chair forward and leaned on his desk, staring right into Nathe’s eyes. “What did you say?” Nick questioned, willing to clarify what he had just heard. Simon sighed and also moved his chair forward, staring back at Nick with a serious look on his face. “I said, I know the mother fucker who’s trying to kill me, which means I know who put Angelina in that state,” Simon rephrased. He quickly took one of the many piece of papers on Nick’s desk and grabbed a pen from the pen bucket scribbling down something. Simon shoved the piece of paper to Nick and waited for his reaction, he was a detective; he didn’t need to tell him what it was. “Yesterday, everything happened. Turns out I was admiring a woman who was indebted to a dangerous man and he doesn’t want anyone near her.” Simon briefed, he crossed his legs feeling like he had achieved a gold medal. “You mean this person is trying to kill you, just because of y
Simon wanted to ask what the woman who just walked in wanted, but the frustrated look on Nick’s face kept him from asking the question. It seems things were a little complicated with these two. “I can’t talk now, Julia. I’ve a murderer on the run,” Nick said, his tone was more like he was pleading. “I don’t care Nick, I want to talk to you now, tell this man to give us some privacy, I’ll be quick.” Julia fired back, she wasn’t even taking what Nick was saying into consideration. All she wanted to do was clear her mind, she had decided to stick to one person, after crying her eyes out the other night. “I’ll be at the reception, Nick,” Simon chipped in, glancing at Julia who seemed a little surprised to see him here. Julia wondered if he was also a cop like Nick, but he wasn’t looking like one. “I’m sorry -,” “I don’t want to hear it Julia, please, not now. I’ve so much on my head. You made me so miserable, added to my pain. The only good you can do for me now is to leave me alo
“How long till backup gets here?” Simon asked, he was tired of waiting. They had been on standby for over thirty minutes, watching the building. Gonzalez may want to leave the house soon, it was almost 9am which was business hour. “It’ll take another fifteen minutes, why are you so worked up. It seems you don’t know who we’re up against,” Nick replied. They had moved to the back seat, watching the building with binoculars. “What do you mean?” Simon inquired, removing his gaze from the binoculars and staring at Nick who was busy focusing his gaze in his own. “Ryan Gonzalez is a mafia gangster, they deal in drugs secretly, but you’d never know. You cannot arrest them, since you would never find evidence; they also have people within the government who backs them up. If the police is posing a threat, they’ll fight back,” Nick explained. Maybe it wasn’t bad having a partner, if only he had given Angelina the chance for her to blend with him, maybe he wouldn’t be feeling so much guilt
It wasn’t Gonzalez, it was his father Ryan Fisher; Nick was confused; what was going on. This was supposed to be Gonzalez’s car, why was his father using the same car, when they had a dozen fleets. The police were also confused, the man they had been warranted to arrest was different from the man standing in front of them now. “Where is Ryan Gonzalez?” The cop who had previously used the mic to call out the target spoke again. “If you’re hiding him somewhere or using this as a diversion, we would be forced to take you into custody until you provide him.” the cop warned, staring at Ryan Fisher. Fisher was looking very confused and innocent, he had no clue why they wanted Gonzalez; but he was sure that his son had gone of the rails again. “I’m Gonzalez’s father, and this is my car. I don’t know where my son his right now. He doesn’t stay permanently in Ohio,” Fisher spoke on top of his voice for everyone to hear him clearly. He wondered what crime Gonzalez had committed this time,
“If it’s not the man himself, never thought I’d see you here , Simon.” Freddy said, without altering the hilarious smile on his face. “What’s going on Freddy, who’s this man?” Fisher asked, he was standing behind Freddy, yet he could see Simon clearly. Freddy turned around and looked at him, the smile hadn’t left his face. “This is the man I was talking to you about just now, if the rumors are true, then this is man Gonzalez tried to murder,” Freddy revealed. Simon and Fisher were both surprised at what Freddy just said. Fisher had never seen this man before, he wondered why Gonzalez would want to kill one of Freddy’s men when he knows quite well the implications of it. What surprised Simon wasn’t the fact that Freddy already knew who was after him, it was the fact that Freddy and Ryan Fisher knew each other. Nevertheless, the surprise didn’t last long, it was a normal phenomenon for two different mafia groups to know each other. Although most of them weren’t always in good ter
Diana didn’t know whether to answer Simon’s question or report to Fisher’s office immediately. This was the second time Fisher was summoning her to his office, the first experience she had, gave her a reason to quit. Gonzalez and Fisher had the same womanizing traits in them. Simon was curious and suspicious about Fisher calling Diana into his office, father and son might actually have something planned without the police knowing. “Sorry, Simon, I’ve to go,” Diana said, giving him a sad look. She left for the shelf to adjust herself. Somehow, Fisher did save her from revealing the truth to Simon, but it wasn’t much of a save, if she was entering hell itself. Nevertheless, Simon was going to ask that same question sooner or later. Fisher just mainly delayed her response, and she wouldn’t have lied if he hadn’t showed up. She was prepared to tell him everything, there was no need to hide something from a man who risked his life for her, whether or not he would change towards her; s
Diana took two steps backwards, her heartbeat slowly getting faster, she was looking into Fisher’s lustful eyes. Even though she knew this was exactly what he wanted to do in his office, there was no exact way to wade him off. For the main time, he was still her boss and she had to obey him. “It’s gonna be quick Diana, no one would know. Okay, here’s the thing, I’ll increase your salary, three times the normal pay. How’s that?” Fisher whispered. His awful breath stinging her nostrils, there was no way she’d let a man like this take advantage of her. What he just said irritated her the more, she felt like stabbing him in the face. “I’m not an escort Mr. Fisher, please leave me be! I’m satisfied with my payment,” Diana said, she glanced backwards, realizing that she was almost where the guards were. She had to find a way to escape, for one reason she couldn’t explain; Diana wished Simon would come through that door and save her. ‘When did he become your bodyguard Diana!’ A voice r
“How did he get down here.” Hatake voice was furious, it was certain that he’d be frowning behind the mask that moment. “He kept insisting that Fred knew him and he was the son of Ryan Fisher, the second notorious mafia in all of Ohio and was forcing his way through,” the guard responded. Freddy wanted to speak when the door creaked open, and Gonzalez walked in. “I did forced my way in, because my dad was kidnapped because of you.” He said walking inside the large room uninvited. Hatake was about making a move, but Freddy waved him off, trying to sit up on the large bed. “Go on Hatake, I’ll deal with this,” Freddy said, his gaze focused on Gonzalez who wasn’t smiling. Hatake stared at Gonzalez for a few seconds, then his gaze shifted to Freddy and then to the guard that was standing close to the door. He then started walking out of the room, hastily. Gonzalez watched him from the side of his eyes, as Hatake passed by him, he wondered just how good he’d be in actual combat. Fredd
“First, you’ve to tell me what really happened, Nick and I guess we’d have to fill Angelina in too, she’s looking so confused,” Simon said, glancing at Angelina. She nodded positively at him, still confused. Nick sighed, he placed his hands on his face for a few seconds, then he went over to Simon and started losing the rope they had used in bounding him to the chair. Simon felt the pain on his wrist ease out a little, he couldn’t be more happy that Nick agreed to his plan without making a fuss. This plan would help him solve all the problems in his life, with a price of him going to prison. He’d make sure he opened up to Diana before he was thrown in there. “I was almost there when it happened, but I was late. When I got there, Diana had already been carried inside the vehicle. Julia was with her, it seemed she was pushed or something. She was bleeding at the back of her head, when I got to her and they were already gone,” Nick narrated, as he finished losing the rope. “ I’m rea
“What the hell are you doing here Angelina?” Nick bellowed, scanning her from head to toe. Why was it the moment when Simon was ready to spill everything that she came rushing in, now he might decide to change his mind. He was almost there, and Angelina just blowed everything up. Maybe he didn’t really need a partner. Nick thought, frowning. Simon sighed, glancing at Angelina, she shouldn’t be here with the way she was looking. “I’m a detective too Nick, I’ve informants; one of them just told me that Ryan Fisher and one of his workers, a woman named Diana Flames has been kidnapped by unknown people. They only saw Diana being kidnapped, Fisher didn’t show up at work but his car was later found, his guards were dead but his body wasn’t there, which explains that he had also been kidnapped. That same informant told me you arrested Nathe, and that’s why I’m here, he saved my life Nick. What are you doing?” Angelina narrated everything without taking a breath. Nick covered his face in
“Hello there, guess you’re awake. Don’t worry, we’re not gonna hurt you, if you cooperate with us.” The masked man accent could absolutely tell you he was Japanese and the sword he was holding also somewhat confirmed it. “Who are you people, and what have I done wrong?” Diana felt the sharp pain at her nape as she spoke, her head was aching one sidedly. “When he’s awake, he’s going to answer that himself, for now. We need to clean you up and have you prepared while we have the chance,” the masked man said, walking over to where Diana was and he started losing the rope tied around her hands. Diana was confused, who was this “he”, the man was talking about, her mind was filled with the pictures of Gonzalez, it could only be him. How did he get back to town without the police knowing, and tried to kidnap her twice, even after losing two of his men. “I don’t want to see your boss, please; if you let me escape, I’ll give you anything in return,” Diana struggled as the masked man loosed
Julia screamed loudly, when she saw what was done to Diana, fear surging through every fiber of her being, one of the masked men pushed her because of her screaming, she staggered and fell, hitting her head on the street light pole, losing consciousness instantly. Nick had driven past the Simpsons club when he heard Julia’s scream, he increased his speed, driving to the direction of her scream, his headlights showed Julia collapsing beside the street light, while a car zoomed off. He quickly hit the brakes, and jumped out of the car pointing his gun at the vehicle that was already leaving his sight, he couldn’t even make out the plate number anymore. Nick brushed his hand through his black hair, walking hastily towards Julia, he squatted and raised her head on his lap, tapping her cheek lightly. “Julia, Julia,” Nick called, but there was no response, he felt her pulse, she was still alive. That was wen he realized the moist texture flowing at the back of her head. Blood! Nick’s
“Hey babe,”Nick frowned a little at sound of the word, she was moving too fast, he only had the sex to make her carry out this small mission, he hadn’t agreed to take her back fully. Even though he was more willing to take her back than he was before, but the thought that Diana was still out there and was being bodied by the mother fucking Simon was still eating him up. “What do you have for me?” He went straight to the point without replying to her pleasantries. “You could at least say hi,” Julia sounded a little concerned, Nick could imagine her furrowing her brow or rolling her eyes. “Okay hi, just give me the information already, there’s an emergency,” Nick replied, tapping his desk involuntarily. He heard Julia sigh on the other end and then the name came through. “Simon King, that’s it.” Julia said, her voice a little low than she was speaking previously. “Got it, gotta go now, bye.” Nick hung up the call before Julia could respond. He wasn’t ready for casual talks, not t
Freddy walked slowly down the ridge that led to the lakeside, the beach was quiet and entirely deserted, it was midnight, no one was expected to be there. He had six guards, armed to the teeth, three following behind him and three moving ahead of him. He was puffing out smokes from his marijuana as he walked; they came down the beach, only to hear a man’s yell from a far distance. Freddy immediately knew who it was, it was Ryan. “Over here Freddy!!” The guards started walking towards the direction of the yell on Freddy’s orders. As they got close, they could see him clearly. “He’s bounded sir,” one of the guards in front called out, raising his hand in a fist to halt their movement. He glanced backwards at Freddy, waiting for instructions. They were just few meters apart from each other, Freddy popped his head out to get a clear view of Ryan, he had been suspicious of this whole situation from the very start, he had wondered and thought why Ryan would call him out here just to t
Diana kept stealing glances at Julia, she had been smiling brightly all night, it seems something good has happened, but she wasn’t going to ask. They haven’t been talking to each other for quite awhile, and Diana didn’t want to be the one to approach Julia this time, the last time she tried, she was scolded. But, to her surprise; Julia did come to her herself this time, after the counter was a little free from customers, Julia came close to Diana where she was wiping spilled drinks from the counter. “Hey Diana, why aren’t you wearing an elegant smile today, did your little boyfriend offend you?” Julia started, her eyes glowing. They hadn’t spoken for some time and here she was acting like nothing ever happened between them, Diana stared at her surprisingly for some seconds before she replied. “I don’t have a boyfriend Julia, I should be asking you the opposite of that question. You seem to be in a good mood today, want to share the good news?” Diana responded, waiting anxiously f
Holding Julia very tightly, Nick released the whole thing inside of her, he then pushed to the couch panting, Julia was also panting heavily, they laid there, without uttering any words, just the sounds of their breath filling the room. Nick didn’t want to admit it, but there was no doubt that he had certainly missed this woman, the thoughts of giving her a second chance was clouding his mind, but he couldn’t quickly decide now, he might not be thinking straight. After he had finished up all of his cases, he would make his final decision, for now; all he needed to do was play the game. “I’m going to do it Nick,” Julia was the first to speak, she was staring at the ceiling as if it was what she was speaking to. “I’m going to get Simon’s other name,” she completed bringing her gaze down to Nick, whose eyes were fixed at her, with a small smile. There was no need for him to say anything more. ***Simon had been thinking about who would want to kidnap Diana, he couldn’t come up with
