"Hey! you stop right there", seeing the guard running towards her.
She looked around but no one was there, she brought her ring to her mouth.
"Aiden, where are you?"
"Look at the side", she saw him waving his hand from far on a boat.
"Why are you there?"
"Come fast, they are coming for you, I saw that woman calling for the guard"
She picked up his unconscious body from the floor and jumped into the river.
She grasped his hair and hauled him with her to swim the river, she swam to the boat.
Aider drew out his gun and shot the guard and the woman on the boat who saw her, then he started shooting who were coming for them.
She reached the boat, Aiden pulled Kirill's body onto the boat as he was still unconscious and then helped her to get on the boat.
"He is not dead, right?", he asked her seeing the man still unconscious.
"Fast, leave from here first, he's just unconscious", she said in between her breath.
"Yes", he went to start the motor to drive away from there.
Suddenly, he saw the guards pointing his gun in their direction. He turned around and shot the men aiming at them.
She turned her face in the direction where he shot the bullet. More men started to come out and started firing on them.
"Give me the gun and drive the boat, they can follow us with other boats"
"Don't worry, I made sure they want", he threw another gun at her and started the motor.
He drove away from there to the bank of the river where there were not many people. First, she stepped out of the boat, and then Aiden got out carrying Miller's body on his shoulder.
She can't see the yacht now.
"They are not following us", she dropped herself to the ground.
"Were not you too far from the yacht? You even know how heavy this hulk is."
"If I waited around the yacht, then I will be the one to shoot first then you. Don't be naggy", he replied to her in a sassy way.
"Ayy Aiden! How dare you call me naggy? Don't forget I am elder than you"
"We joined at the same time, it's just I was in a different department and I don't consider you one", he replied while pulling out her phone from his pocket.
"I am calling the headquarter", Aiden dialed a call on his phone and asked for a car at their location.
Soon a car arrived there, two-man got out of the car. They picked up Mr. Miller's body and put it in the car. He was about to sit in the same car when she stopped him.
"Our car is behind this one", he saw behind the car there was another black car standing behind.
"You are going to drive, I will change my clothes at the back", she took the keys from the driver and pass them to him.
"This is the one we came in right? do you have clothes to change it?", he asked her questionably thinking that she is just pushing the keys to him.
"I always carry an extra pair of clothes in my car", she sat in the back seat of the car and he sat in the driver seat.
"Don't try to peek here", she told him as she undressed in the car.
He didn't reply to her and drove to the headquarters in Russia.
*****
They both entered the headquarter, she is now wearing a grey hoodie with jeans. Everyone greeted the two on their way. They reached their senior's office, a guard opened the door for them.
A man in his 40s was sitting behind the desk, the two greeted him.
"Thank you, for your help Agent Chloe and Agent Aiden. We will make sure to repay your kindness.", the man spoke with full courtesy.
The girl who brought Miller and was with Aiden now is Chloe, the two are spy's in Federal American Investigation. They both were sent there by the agency to work with Russians in a collaborative project to eradicate the drug mafia, Kirill Miller was one of the big names among them.
"We didn't help you, we are just following our orders", she replied.
"Your part is done now, we will handle things from here"
"If everything is done I would like to leave."
They two left the room.
"Are we going to return right now? in the night?"
"Mr. Patrick called me last night and he wants me to return earlier, that's why I pushed everything so that I can return. You are going to stay here, submit a report here and in our agency too", she told him leaving the headquarters.
"You are leaving me here for paperwork.", he said with a frustrated look on his face.
"You know this is the most important part", she said patting his back, "I have a flight soon. Return soon."
She left with the car from there and went back in.
---- In Canada's Headquarters ----
After returning from Canada, It was morning now. She took a taxi from the airport and reached the agency's office there.
She entered Mr. Patrick's office.
"You should've rested for at least a day before coming to the office.", he said in a calm voice, eyes on the files in front of him.
She didn't say a word and remain stood there. Although she is cheerful in her personality, she never says anything in front of him if not needed. It's not, she is afraid of him but she respects him too much. He was the man who brought her up all these years even though he wasn't her father or any relative.
"Now, If you are here, let's get to work.", he closed the file and threw it toward her.
"This is going to be your first solo mission, all the information you needed is in this file."
"Dave Castello, the famous Castello family", she said in an astonished voice.
"I know you were investigating the Castello family, so I thought you would be the best agent for this beside he is not some easy mafia anyone can deal with, I need someone whom I can trust and capable of it."
"I will make sure to give you a fruitful result", she replied to him with confidence.
"He is going to cut a deal with the Asian mafia for drugs, you have to stop the deal and found concrete evidence against him."
She went to her office.
*****
She spends two days in her office searching for all the information about the Castello family.
She was keeping a track of all the members of the Castello Family, they were mafias from four generations and the ones who set the rules in the mafia world. The rules were there, the law was there and the entire business was there.
After two days of finding a lead on Dave, she received a tip from the agency that Dave Castello will meet someone in a nightclub.
"Mr. Dave Castello, it feels like a piece is missing. Don't worry I will find that soon and then you will be behind bars because now I am going to enter your life", she said to herself staring at the board where she pasted personal information found on the Castello Family.
Third Person POV ---- On the other side ---- A man was walking on a busy street, dressed in a black overcoat with a turtle neck sweater inside, his black hair a bit longer pushed backward. He didn't turn anywhere to look around and kept walking straight, passing by hundreds of people on the street he was talking to someone on the phone call. "We should tell everyone about you so that you can take over", the person on the other side of the call said. "It's not the time yet for me to show myself, some things are still needed to be done those people will not let us take anything easily we can't trust them one mistake and we can lose everything, wait for the right time, it's near until then take up the front for me", he said keeping one hand inside his pocket and holding the phone from the other. "What do you want me to do?", the other person asked. "Look out if anyone is plotting against you, kill them." "I am on this, I found something. I will take care of it so that you can retu
Dave entered the nightclub, surrounded by his bodyguards. His men escorted him to the first floor of the night club which was booked by him.Chloe saw him going toward his seat, he was seated on the balcony area from where he can easily see other. His men were guarding the area around and a few club strippers accompanying him there. She already knew that some of them are on the ground floor disguised as commoners.She was observing the first floor from down, especially the men guarding Dave closely."It's not good to eye down another man when you are already with someone", he said gritting his teeth in vexation. From his tone, one could easily say how much he was irritated by the fact that the woman on his lap is looking out for another man.His voice made her realize that she still was sitting on someone's lap. She rotated her face toward him and his face was too close to her, for once she got flustered by the proximity."I will make sure that you will not do that again, you will hav
After a few good minutes of waiting there, Dave lifted his face to look at the woman standing there waiting for him to look at her. "So, you are the woman pregnant with my child.", Dave said throwing his head back. Chloe lies to the guards that she is pregnant with Dave's kids and wants to meet him to inform him about her pregnancy since she didn't contact him in months. She knew that this will make him meet her at least once. But this chance comes with a risk, Dave can kill her for lying. He sprang his head back to look at her again, he eyed her from head to toe. "I am not sure whether I slept with you or not, seeing how you dressed up to come here, for sure you are not my type", Dave said mocking her. "But let's say I have spent a night with you, I accept that baby is mine if you are pregnant", Dave stood up from his seat and went to her. "You chose the wrong man to joke around, I kill all those women I spend a night with, those over there also don't know that", he said coming
Frank's POV When I came here, I didn't expect to meet that girl again, I slept with a lot of girls before, and she is just one of them. But the different thing was she was the one who left me there the next day on the bed and even paid the bill for the room. The girls I have dated until yet or the ones I slept with, only wanted to suck me up, I have always paid the bills for them and never regretted leaving them and sleeping with them. I don't have any memory I cherish with them whether it was just a one-night stand or a long relationship. I don't remember how many I have dated yet, I don't even remember their names, and for how long I was with them. But I remember this girl from that night, her face and what happened that night are completely fresh in my memories. And also how she left me the next day, without saying anything. ---- A year ago (back in Frank's Memory) ---- I came here, to Sydney, when I was twelve and never returned to my country. It was the same usual day, in
---- Frank's POV (a year ago in his memory) ---- The memory's from that night are crystal clear in my head, how her body moved with mine, her moaning, how her touch felt. From that time her beauty was unmatchable from the girls I have met before and until now. There wasn't any girl who was able to suppress me but that day I unknowingly let her suppress me and take the lead. The fun thing was that the next morning was engraved in my memory too. The next day when I woke up, I wanted to wrap her in my arms. I extended my hand to search for her, but her side of the bed was cold. I opened my eyes to look for her, but she wasn't there, but it was too early for someone to wake up after a passionate night. I didn't pick up any cloth to cover myself and stood up from the bed to look for her, she wasn't around. At first, I thought she must be in the bathroom. "Hey! Are you in?", I just realized that we didn't even exchange our names. I knocked on the door a few times, but there was no resp
Frank's POV What is she doing there? Does she know him? No the way she was staring at him before, it must be the first time she saw him in person. Or Dave called her here? But he won't call an unknown random girl when I am here to meet him even if he knows her. Does that mean she is one of the strippers or prostitutes here? No, she isn't dressed like one and if she was she wouldn't have pushed me away. I can't even see them from here, should I go closer? But there's no place for me to hide, I guess I should hide behind that sofa. But I have to escape from that man's eye who is guarding the entrance to the balcony. I have to distract him in some way, I can't distract him with sound the club's music will cover it. "Damn! why didn't that stupid brother of mine didn't moved his guard for me to enter." Wait I still have a chance to get in, he can't hear but will notice when he sees something. There's a medium-sized vase near him too if it falls..., then I can go in. I pulled out m
Third Person's POVThe man hiding behind the large vase shot the bullet aimed at Dave.Instead of piercing Dave's body, the bullet passed through a serving tray, flying in between in the bullet's path. The tray was thrown by Frank to block the shot.A few of Dave's men shot in the same direction, a man fell dead right there.A lot of men entered the nightclub's balcony, and the people from both sides started fighting.Frank came in front to protect his brother and to fight against the goons.Dave released Chloe from his grip, pushing her a bit. Dave saw his brother fighting with the enemies, he pulled out another gun from the back of his pocket."Frank!", Dave called him, Frank turned his face to him, and Dave through the gun at him. Frank caught the gun and first shot the person he was fighting with and then started shooting the others coming towards him."You leave from here with some of your guards immediately, they are here for you", Frank told to Dave asking for him to leave so t
Chloe didn't know what to say. "I don't think we should hear her lame excuses, I won't believe whatever you say.", Frank said as he was thinking of her to be one of the assassin's sides too. Chloe thought Frank to be a sort of lunatic, he already met her before now, and the two spent a night together, and just before this whole ruckus, he was asking her to sleep with him. And wanting her to remember everything that happened before. But now he is saying that he doesn't believe her and on top of that he saying this where he doesn't have a say. "Let's just hear out what she has to say.", Dave said as he wasn't sure whether he should obey her brother or not. Don't mistake him for someone who doesn't want an innocent to die, he said so because he saw Chloe saving his brother's life just now when he was attacked by three people at once and she shot him down, he just wants to hear her out as assassins usually don't care about someone else life especially when he is a complete unknown. Th
She hung up the phone.Mira questioned her, "What happened?"."He simply ditched me, saying he got some urgent work."A car stopped in front of them.When the two turned to face the automobile, the car's window dropped.Frank was seated in the vehicle."Hey! You must be finished with your work now. Come along with me.", Frank remarked as he turned his face to Chloe from inside the vehicle."Why should I?", Chloe asked in a quiet voice glaring at him.Chloe's words were not heard by the two of them."If you'd like, let's go out to dinner together.", Frank suggested with a smile."Oh! I believe your friend arrived. Hello, I am Chloe's colleague Mira, we are in the same department.", Chloe heard Mira say this."No, he's not the friend I was talking about...", Chloe said to avoid misunderstanding.Frank interrupted Chloe's sentence, "Nice to meet you, mam. Thank you, for keeping her in your company.""No, he..."Missing Chloe's words, Mira said, "You were talking about something ditching
"You don't have to behave like my girlfriend anymore after we reveal about brother. We can sign another contract too."On the same day, in the afternoon, in the company"I will think about your words and respond later," Chloe remembered saying before leaving Frank's room."I know you'd make a wise decision," Frank said as she exited the room.Chloe was replaying the morning conversation in her head.'I have no choice but to comply with what they are saying. But now my goal has shifted; I was already lacking in information on Dave, and now I know nothing about him. Aiden has not yet contacted me. I'm sure I'm on their radar now. I can't even get in touch with him. Only if I can ask him directly.' Chloe reflected as she sat at her desk.Chloe was lost in her thoughts and didn't notice that someone was calling out for her.She was working at her desk when she heard a small knock. Mira was the one."Huh?" Chloe asked, perplexed.Mira, pointed her finger at Alex, who was standing a little
The Next Day, Early MorningChloe was dozing off in her bed when she flipped over.Behind her, she sensed a dip in the mattress, like though someone had been sitting on it.Without delay, she spun around and withdrew the dagger that she always kept beneath her pillow.She brandished the dagger at the intruder in her room.He raised his hands instantly, and it was Frank, she saw sitting on the bed."I assumed you were getting a good night's sleep." Frank remarked, "I see you are quite sensitive."Pointing the blade at him, Chloe questioned, "How did you come in?"Frank jokingly said, "Shouldn't your question be what I am doing here?"Glaring at him, Chloe said, "Answer me, first.""OK, all right." Frank replied, "I entered through that door; it's my house, and I have extra keys for all the doors in this house."Chloe noticed the door opened.Frank asked, "Now, will you put down that dagger?" as he pushed the blade halfway down.Chloe reclaimed the dagger.Chloe asked, ruffling her seve
Chloe left Frank and Dave and went to her room.As Chloe walked away, Frank asked Dave, "Can we go to my room?""Yes. By now, the room must have been cleaned by the maids.""I kept this room locked while you were away.", Dave said as he opened the door, "Everything is as it is, as you left it."Frank replied, looking around the room and recalling all the memories of his youth he had, some fuzzy and some as vivid as the sky, "Hmm... it's been a long right?"Dave hugged his brother once more and whispered, "I waited for you."Frank could hear a slight tremble in Dave's voice.Frank hugged him back, and let him rest on his shoulder for a while."How can you trust her alone? What if something happened to you? I would have sent more people. Why you asked for her alone.", Dave asked as a tear escaped from his eyes falling on his brother's shoulder.Frank said to his brother, "I wanted to see what she was capable of and what not.""You take such a big chance just to try her out?", Dave quest
On one side, Frank and Chloe were standing, and on the other, the enemy's men were waiting for Frank."I'll handle everything; just get in the car and drive away from here," Chloe told Frank.Chloe was prepared to fight back though she knew she couldn't win over these men. But the only thing she has to do is get Frank safely out of here.The enemy's men began to approach them.Frank took Chloe's hand in his."We're not going to win here." Frank said as he began running in the opposite direction pulling Chloe with him."Run." Frank said.With all those men trailing behind them."What are your thinking? We can't avoid them for long even if we run inside.", Chloe said as she ran."Simply follow me and run as fast as you can. We just need to vanish from their sight.", Frank said as the two kept running.Suddenly, a bullet was fired at them. Chloe looked behind her, and those men were getting closer. They were shoving people all over the place.The airport police attempted to stop them, bu
Dave escorted Chloe away from the party. There was another car alongside the one they arrived in. Dave made her to sit in the other car.Chloe noticed, while getting in, the Castello's symbol wasn't on the car.Dave inquired about her arms, "Are you loaded?""Sufficiently.", she answered."If you require additional weapons, there is one right beneath your seat. You are also free to take that. The driver will take you to your destination and explain everything to you. There will be a man there. Bring him safely to me. That is your responsibility.""What is his name? How will I recognize him? ", Chloe inquired, perplexed by what was going on.If there was an emergency, hundreds of Dave's men will be stationed here. But no one was there, so it could be someone Dave doesn't want anyone to know about.Who could it possibly be? Chloe asked to herself."The driver will give you a picture. I'll tell the others that you weren't feeling well, so we're both going back. I'll be waiting for you a
Dave was gone. After speaking with Jasper for a while, Chloe learned a few useful things, but he was constantly trying not to spit out the important information. But Chloe was confident that she could get him to say anything, but she needed time. There were far too many distractions, and people were crowding around her. Although Jasper was still nearby, the others were taking up too much of her time, making it impossible for her to converse with him. She went to Jasper, as soon as she found some space, before anyone else approached her. "Hey! Can you help me, Mr. Jasper?", Chloe inquired. "I'm starting to feel congested. This is my first time here, so I'm not sure where I should go. Can you take me to a vacant area?" Chloe performed admirably in convincing him of what she was saying. "Sure, I'll assist you. Come along with me.", Jasper stated. Chloe followed him to the location he was taking her. He continued to speak as they travelled. "I completely understand how you mus
Zen and Chloe shared a drink, but Chloe refuses to drink any more.Zen had a few more drinks before being taken away by some females.Dave had been staring at her the entire time.Chloe noticed Dave approaching her."He left you alone here," Dave said as he approached her."He didn't leave me, just a swarm of flies took him," she chuckled.Dave looked at her."What exactly is it? Why did you come here? Is there anyone in particular I should keep an eye on? "Chloe inquired."No," Dave replied."Then?"Dave didn't have a specific reason."I just came because he left; it won't look right if you stand here by yourself while I socialise." he explained."You just happened to arrive at the wrong time; that lady was about to approach me after seeing me standing alone. If you hadn't shown up, I could have talked to her ", Chloe said, motioning to a middle-aged woman.Dave and I both looked in the same direction."You will have more opportunities. Don't be concerned, and don't rush ", Dave told
"I know him very well," Zen smiled.Chloe remained silent, pretending she wasn't understanding what he was saying."I understand why you came here," Dave said.Zen's gaze shifted to Dave."Chloe, Could you please help me with this one thing? If you see this man saying something stupid, leave him right away. You don't need to think about anything."Dave locked his gaze on him.Chloe burst out laughing at the sight of the two.Chloe had never seen Dave bicker like that before. His words are usually either a cautionary tale or a command to others. Every word has different meanings."Fine, is this the queue from which I should leave?" she asked, looking at them both."Hey! You're ruining both of our moods. Are you afraid she will leave you if she learns about your past? ", Zen told Dave."Chloe, your name is Chloe, right?" Zen asked.Chloe gave a slight nod of the head."Would you like to join me for a drink until your boring fiance greets the rest of the guests? I'm telling you, it's bet
