Xavier slowly stood up from his table with fists. “What did you just say?" He walked to her. Raquel stood with her hand on her bleeding stomach. She had a black eye and a swollen lip. “I'm sorry I failed you" Her head dropped in a bow. Xavier angrily approached her and in one swing, he punched her across the face and she painfully fell to the floor. " I trusted her with you!” He roared. His chest heavily falling and raising. Raquel slowly got up in pain and bowed before him again. “You were supposed to protect her with your life so how are you here and my wife is not!?” He grabbed her by the collar. “ Where's my wife!?” Xavier pulled out his gun and placed it to her temple. “You better find her! Because if you don't, I'll chop you in half and feed your body to my lions" Denzel walked in with a pad in one hand while the other arm was bandaged. Xavier pushed her aside. “Sir, we got coordinates” He said and showed Xavier her location. " That is one of his warehouses but i
‘But he came for you!’Jade stopped.So what? She is in this situation because of him in the first place!‘You can't leave him!’Why is she battling with her mind?Without another thought, Jade turned around.If she ends up dead, fine. But if she manage to save him, then he'll be in her debt forever!Jade peeped when she reached the corner again, with Xavier's gun in her hand.‘Be quiet, Jade' She said to herself as she scanned around, slowly creeping back in the direction she came from.Xavier didn't come with his men and he made it clear that she needed to be quiet, that means it was a silent mission and she can't afford to make too much sound.Jade spotted a thug and quickly hid in the nearby room but he picked a movement and slowly walked to the room with his gun set and ready to shoot.Jade kicked the gun out of his hand and before he could fathom what was happening, she kicked the confused look out of his face with an uppercut.A move Raquel taught her and she enjoyed learning,
*Flashback* (Jade's POV) I quickly rushed out to the front pouch. It was a cold night. Justin was standing right there with smiles and a rose in one hand, all dressed up. A confused look settled on my face because he gave me my birthday present earlier today and we spent most of the day together as well. “What are you doing here?" I whispered, trying to take him away from the door. “ I told you I have a surprise for you." He grinned. “You didn't tell me you were coming over." Justin wouldn't move no matter how hard I tried. “That's why it's a surprise! I want to formally tell your parents that you're my girlfriend," He sounded excited. “And I want us to do it together." Was he out of his mind? Does he know who he was talking about? My parents? One of the wealthiest in the state? They can never find out I'm dating him. They will never accept him. “No, Justin you can't do that. You need to leave. My dad thinks you're here to beg for your job back.” I pleaded.
“Xavier!" Jade shouted in horror and turned to look at the man who shot her husband dead on the ground in a distance.The bullet penetrated Xavier's chest.“Xavier!" Horror filled Jade to the brim as she shook him and he didn't respond but she found a pulse.Then she heard footsteps in a distance.Jade blinked the tears and wiped them away when they fell to her face.She needed to act fast, and smart.Jade quickly dragged Xavier's body away from sight until she reached the water fall and hid behind the bushes.“You need to wake up." She held his jaw. “Or we will both die." Jade didn't know what to do so she quietly laid beside him.Whosoever tried to kill them was still out there and probably looking for them so she can't make any noise or movement that could attract attention.But she needs to get his wounds treated. What if he dies because she didn't treat him on time?Jade fell asleep momentarily and jerked awake after a while.She looked at her husband and sighed.Standing to her
Jade hesitated.Was he referring to her?“Brown hair? Oversized clothes? Picking wild fruits?” He continued with a smile. He had an accent she couldn't really place.“What are you doing in the wild?” He asked again, with a very strong Arabian accent.Jade slowly came out.Arabian! Of course, he is Arabian.“Hi?” She awkwardly waved.“I knew you are American the moment I saw you,” He finally got down from the horse and and offered his hand. “Khalil.”Jade took his hand. She couldn't decide if to tell him her real name or not.What if he is the one behind her kidnapping? What if he is dangerous and could kill her?But, wouldn't he have recognised her right away and probably attack?Instead, he stood there with a friendly smile and a warm, harmless handshake.‘And he looked so kind and handsome’ Jade conceded.He was indeed a fine man that was physically built but smelt like riches. The golden straps on his bisht confirmed he was either rich or from a noble family.He had a neat and trim
A frown appeared on her face. “Help me up.” He said and she did. He moved to lean against the wall of the cave. “Why do we need to leave?” She finally asked. “It's not save.” He breathed. “You're not strong enough to move,” She adjusted the blanket on him. “We've been here for days. They are probably still looking and close enough. We can't stay here.” He explained. “We are save here. Nobody will find us. We are not moving until you get better.” She sternly said. He only looked at her. “You see that?” She pointed at the plank that was lying next to him. “I used that to move you around, I'm not doing it again. My toes are sore and I haven't eaten a single good meal in days.” “I'll get you out of here and take care of you.” He assured her. All she cared about was taking care of him instead and finding a way back home. Xavier's injury slowly but effectively healed as the days went by and Jade could never be happier although he was still sick and she hoped it wasn't an infection
Xavier entered the rock shelter and sat down in pain, leaning on the wall. He has been holding back the pain because he didn't want to alert his wife.Knowing Jade too well, she'll only overreact.He picked the container of herbal cream and angrily smashed it on the other wall of the cave.He forgot to ask her where she got the goddamn cream from.Did she sell her wedding ring again?Xavier felt restless and sat up.What if she never comes back to him?He was so stupid to just let her go on her own. What if she acts on impulse and decides to run away from him?He had no idea exactly where they were but he definitely knows what part of the world they where and he didn't tell Jade.Xavier quickly got up to his feet and grabbed his shirt, ignoring the bleeding wound as he followed her trail.He had a lot of ‘what ifs ‘ playing in his head.What if she gets eaten by a wild animal?Or worse, gets kidnapped again?Xavier looked around, he had no idea what direction to take.This was his fi
“I really have no idea what you are talking about, trust me Jade," Khalil sincerely said. Jade stopped for a moment. She didn't know why but she strangely believed him. “I can help you find him." He offered. If Khalil didn't take him, then who did? Xavier isn't stupid enough to go out there all on his own with a wounded chest when he clearly knew his life was in danger. “Okay." She quickly dashed into the forest. “Xavier!" She called. Tears blinded her as she bumped into few bushes and branches but didn't stop. “Xavier!" Jade knew how dangerous it was to make too much noise in case her kidnapers were nearby but she doesn't care anymore. If he was taken by them, they should as well as take her too. " Xavier!” She wiped her face and looked some more. " Jade!” She heard Khalil call her. He was somewhere in the forest but couldn't see him. " Did you find him?” She immediately stopped in her tracks. " Are you looking for a man covered with tattoos?" His voice sound
