She found her next target, although she wasn’t going to try and kill him; she wanted something more intimate. Her target was tall—far taller than her—with blonde hair and pale eyes, and he looked to be stoned out of his mind. He was sitting on the same chair that she had been sitting on when Roderick bought her the drink. He had a slight flush to his face and was trying hard to hide the raging boner he had.“Did you take my drink?” she asked as she saw her drink in his hands. She hadn’t finished it but now it was empty. She was extremely worried about the man considering she didn’t exactly know what Roderick had put in it. Although her best guess was an aphrodisiac, he had probably intended to use it to keep her pliable.“Bad habit of mine,” The man chuckled, he offered his hand to her. She took it. “Name’s Frederick Taylor but you call me Fred. I’m sorry for what I did. Let me buy you a new one.”He was extremely charming and it might have been the aphrodisiac but Shawty was imagining
“I’ll shower later,” She said as she began kissing him, their tongues playing against one another, each seeking dominance against the others. They stopped to catch their breath. “This is just for tonight. I have to be somewhere tomorrow morning.”“So do I,” Frederick admitted, as he looked at his watch. “We have 4 hours left until morning, let’s make it count.”He held her and looked straight into her eyes and one again she felt like she could drown in the look of those eyes on her. She shuddered, having spent too long looking at him and wondering what was below his belt. Her eyes drift back up and she wonders how she was to deal with what has been aroused in her, literally in the blink of an eye.“What now?” she asked nervously.“What?” He laughed. “Is this your first time?”“No.” She said, although she wasn’t very convincing.“Then let's make tonight memorable for the both of us.” His breath was against her ear and on her face and she shivered in aberrant longing for him, her feeling
“Take me to Hawkthorne academy.” She demanded, she even tossed extra money at the driver, suppressing any further protests. He reversed the cab and entered another street. They were driving farther and farther away from the city.“If you wait here. I’ll give you an extra 100 pounds.” She said as she closed the door, the driver nodded his head and rolled up the windows, keeping the heater on.The boarding school she was walking towards was a beehive of activity, they were having a football game, she stood behind the benches hoping to catch a glimpse of her sister and there she was dribbling past her opponents and towards the goal post. She was the reason Shawty had taken up this deadly trade.Emily Shelliot was like a sister to her , they had been friends raised in the same orphanage until they were separated, the adopters had only wanted a child, months later her uncle found her and took her to his home. Until she ran into Emily again, beaten and bruised on the street by her adopted fa
“Next time,” She said. “Why was he here?” She continued, she knew she had to stay on topic and insist her boss answered. He deliberately left questions unanswered or answered with half truths and would deflect if not pressured to answer.“He wanted a bodyguard.”She shook her head. “Why was he really here?”“When you met at the club. What happened afterwards.”“We went.. To his hotel and-“ She tried to stay calm as she narrated her story. “But I told him it was just a one night stand.”“On any given day, I would have chastised for this inappropriate behavior but I think this would actually make our job easier.”Shawty cocked her eyebrows, expecting an answer.“Your one night stand is about buying into a Russian oil and gas company. If he succeeds, he will be drilling in a multitude of oil rich regions.”Shawty eyes widened in surprise as she realized this was the appointment he had been talking about.“Now our client is a Russian oligarch who wants that company but doesn’t have enough
She wanted to laugh at his corny lines but she decided it was better to keep shut. She was slightly charmed by her words.“You’re delusional.” She said simply.“Perhaps but I choose to use this opportunity to get to know you better.”“And?”“Whatever happens will happen,” He said with a simple shrug, he flagged down a cab. It parked near them and he got into it. “I need to get back to my hotel. Got an important memo I need to send to my company.”“Alright then.”“Hold on,” He told the cabdriver. Then he turned to face Shawty with a radiant smile. “Can I get your number? There are many things we have to go over.”She nodded his head and gave him a burner phone number, she would have to find another alternative way to speak with him.“Thanks. See you soon” The cab sped off, leaving Shawty alone. She watched the cab drive off with the eccentric billionaire.“Idiot,” She muttered. “You’re so close to death and you don’t even realize it.”When she turned on the lights of her mostly empty ap
Held in her grasp was the man who had started becoming quite the headache for Shawty.His green eyes stared at her as though they were piercing through her very slowly.“You passed. I’m impressed,"he said. “Now can you let go. I can’t really breathe with your hand on my neck.”She released him and returned the fork he stole from the diner back into her pocket. She watched with apathy as he rubbed his throat, trying to soothe it.“Explain now.” She demanded.“I was trying to test your skills. Wanted to be sure you were alert and ready.”“That wasn’t very hard. You were very obvious with your spying.” Shawty said she wanted to slap him and call him an idiot. If it had been anyone else, another assassin who was playing her role as his bodyguard, chances are they would have killed him without hesitation.“I’m hurt. I thought all the spy movies I watched as a kid would come in handy.” He said with a twinkle in his eye. He was a bit she had to admit.“So who was the kid? Your brother?” He as
There was a slight hesitation from Shawty’s end, Frederick could hear her breath, the same breath that had turned him on last night. It was shocking that it had been barely a day and he had so many surprises and excitement.“Are you sure that’s a good idea?” she finally said.“Positive. Also could you come over to the hotel for dinner. You won’t regret it.”“I’ll think about it.” She cut the call.Frederick dropped his phone on the bed, he used the hotel phone to start making plans.What are you doing? This was a perfect opportunity to kill him.She debated that with herself inwardly as she walked home. She wondered why she hadn’t totally agreed to it. A simple date with him, especially one that was private would have made it easier for her to kill him. She could have asked him to walk her home afterwards while he, not minding the distance, would have agreed to and then she could have easily killed him with her poisoned lipstick.“I have to do it.” She told herself.She scrolled throug
The next morning, Shawty woke up to the sunrise sneaking to her view from her hotel window. Waking up today wasn’t horrible as usual but she was horribly jet lagged and needed a bit more rest. Frederick had offered to let her stay in his suite with him but she refused. She needed to start making boundaries. It would make it easier when it was time to kill him. She got up groggily, scratching her back with a groan. She was tired from the journey but she had work to do. Her phone beeped and she glanced at it. It was a call from Frederick. She was now officially his bodyguard so she couldn’t ignore him anymore. “Good morning, gorgeous,” he said from the other side. He was buttoning up his white shirt and getting ready for the day. “Why are you calling so early?” She deadpanned. It was just 6 in the morning. She wiped her face and entered the bathroom to start cleaning up.“Well, I sent you a copy of the schedule last night but you seemed too tired to open it,” he laughed as he buttoned
The pain she expected did not come. She opened her eyes closely and saw that Simon was on the floor, holding his legs. His face was twisted in pain. Shawty raised her head and looked up. She saw that the person who actually shot him was the man who came in earlier and tied her. She frowned, wondering why he was helping her.I hope it is not like she was escaping from the fry pan to the fire instead."Who are you? You are not Elliot," Simon said in a confident tone.The man, ‘Elliott, just smiled. "Did you not message me to come here? You still don’t know or recognize me?" The man asked with a smile.Simon was stunned; he pointed his finger tremblingly and said, "YYou are Fredrick? How come?" He asked in shock.Shawty was also shocked; no wonder she felt that the man was awfully familiar, so it was actually Fredrick, just like she expected. She did not expect him to really come.Fredrick just smiled."You cannot escape; before you are able to leave here, my men will kill you," Simon sa
She was so shocked that she could not even speak. She was silent for a while before she finally regained her composure."Uncle Simon?" She called hesitantly. She still felt that she was not seeing things properly.Simon walked toward her with a smile."Why are you here? Did you hear about what happened to me when I came here? You should not; you will be risking your life by doing this," Shawty said with a concerned expression on her face.Simon chuckled. "You are really funny; you have not been able to escape, but you are thinking about me." He said it with an amused expression.Shawty narrowed her eyes. She was connecting the dots, but she still felt that it was impossible. She shook her head. "You are the one behind all of these?" She asked hesitantly.Simon smiled. "You are very smart, just like your mother," He said with a smile.Shawty shook her head in disbelief. It was not that she did not think about it when he walked into the room. But everything and how he behaved whenever s
Five days later.Shawty looked around the room, feeling bored. She was expecting Leonard to come; maybe she would finally meet the mastermind today. All they wanted was for her to regain consciousness before they could finally move on to the next mission.The room door opened, and a man walked in. Shawty guessed that it was one of the bodyguards, but she had never seen him before.He walked toward her.Shawty felt he was familiar, but his face does not look familiar. But he really was familiar. She does not know why she felt that way. She suddenly thought of Fredrick. She shook her head. ‘It seems she was missing Fredrick so much that all men now looked like him to her, She thought.The room door also opened, and Leonard walked in. Shawty looked at him and said, "You cannot even at least knock on the door; what if I am changing or something?" She said, feeling angry.Leonard glanced at her briefly and asked, "What are you trying to hide? I have seen it when you were young a lot of tim
Fredrick walked out of the company.Ring!!He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out his phone. He glanced at the screen and saw that the caller was Chris. He answered the call and put the phone on his ear."Hello" "Come to my house if you are less busy; my men figured out something," Chris said immediately.Okay," Fredrick replied, getting into the car.The driver started the car and drove out of the company. He drove into Chris’s garage. Fredrick opened the car door and got out of the car.He walked towards his house, opened the door, and walked into the house. He looked around and only saw his second in command; he did not see Chris."He is in his study room," his second in command said to him when he saw him.Fredrick nodded. He climbed the staircase and walked towards his study room. He opened the door and walked into the study room. Chris was sitting down in front of his laptop.Fredrick looked at him and sat down beside him. "What is so urgent that you asked me to com
Even her suicide was fake. She knew that the people behind everything would save her. She was killing two birds with one stone: first, she would be able to figure out the mastermind behind all of this, and second, she would be able to erase everything. Her pregnancy was totally unexpected; she did not even know that she was pregnant. She only knew that the mastermind wanted her; she did not expect to cover so many things after days of being here.She used her suicide as a trap; she was guessing if the mastermind would save her. If he did not, then Jay was already prepared to save her too. When the mastermind saved her, she knew everything before she passed out. That was why she also discovered that getting to Leonard’s den was not that simple. The mastermind is the one behind Leonard, and Leonard also confirmed her guess. When he was talking with Luke, Fredrick's stepbrother He mentioned the hidden boss, whom she never even knew or met since she was there. She met a lot of people but
Leonard was shocked, as expected; he turned his head and looked at Luke. "What? He resumed with the company already?" He asked.Luke nodded and said, Yes, I am just coming back from there. He is back at the company," He said.Leonard looked at him. "You should leave before he suspects you and traces you to here now," He said with an anxious expression.Luke nodded. Even though he was unwilling to leave, he still had to because Leonard might order his bodyguards to throw him out of the house, and he did not want that kind of situation.He turned around and walked out of the room. Leonard was silently looking at the unconscious woman."I know you have regained your consciousness. There is no need for you to pretend anymore. I am not playing those games with you anymore," He said with a stern expression.The woman on the bed did not move. She was still in the same position, like he was not talking to her."Are you still pretending? I will call the doctor to remove the tumor in your stoma
Fredrick walked into his office, looking thoughtful. Even though Luke had already told him that it was a mistake, he did not want to believe that there was such a mistake. He dipped his hand into his pocket, took out his phone from his pocket, and dialed Chris’s number.The phone rang for a while before he finally answered it on the third ring. "Hello, are you already missing me? Is that why you are calling me just a few hours after leaving my place?" Chris asked."I think Luke is suspicious; help me follow his movements. He might know something," He said in a serious voice.Okay, on it!" Chris immediately responded with a serious expression. Once it was time to be serious, he was always serious.Fredrick immediately hung up after this. Chris was furious on the other side and almost banged the table angrily. This ungrateful man did not even tell him thank you and just instructed him like he was his surrogate. He is so annoying.Luke walked into the house, looked around, and saw that t
He frowned, irritated that someone was not minding his business. The female employee raised her head and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Drake."President!" She cried out in a joyful voice. She felt like it had been years since the president left. He would never let her do this or lick his shoe like Luke demanded. She was very happy when she saw him.Luke froze. He was in disbelief and raised his head slowly. He was stunned when his eyes met Fredrick’s cold eyes."You …" His eyes widened in shock when he saw him, like he saw a ghost.Fredrick smiled. "I am back," he said.Luke asked dumbfoundedly, "Why are you back?"He asked. "Are you not supposed to be heartbroken about..." He immediately stopped talking when he realized that he was about to spill the beans.Fredrick raised an eyebrow. What happened to Shawty was not known by the public; only Chris knows it, so why was he acting this way?"What do you mean? Heartbroken? About what?" He asked him, searching his eyes for answers.
The employees immediately walked towards their various posts. Luke lifted his head up haughtily; he was very happy to see that the employees were all listening to him. The employees were only listening to him because they did not know who would win the fight between the two of them, maybe Fredrick or Luke, so they had to obey whatever so they would not be implicated. They never thought about the fact that if Fredrick instructed them to do something and Luke instructed them to do something else, who would they listen to? They did not think about that.He walked toward the elevator. He stopped as he was about to enter the presidential elevator. He looked at the presidential elevator with a greedy look. The elevator will soon be his. The elevator has a fingerprint scanner that works only with Fredrick and anyone else he wants to allow to use it. If not, he would have taken the elevator as his from the very beginning. But it is just a little time; with the elevator, he will be able to use
