A FAMILY PLIGHT
The next day, Cage decided that it was best to go to her family house and take care of the situation himself. And just as she had complained to him the the before, Cage met them yelling at each other. He observed the scene before him, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy as he watched the whole thing. Her cousins were engaged in a bitter argument as they yelled at each other, and accused themselves of several other things. He was shocked. "I can't believe you're suggesting that I should take care of Dad! You're the oldest, you should be the one to do it!" The girl who looked the youngest among them thundered, glaring at her elder brother. It was clear that she was spoiled. "Oh, please! Don't act like you're too busy to help out. We all know you're just lazy and selfish!" He growled back at her. The third, who had seen Cage and Chloe quickly went to diffuse the situation. "Both of you need to calm down. This isn't going to help the situation!" She yelled, but her words fell on deaf

A MISTAKE
Cage was dreaming when a pounding sound jarred him from sleep. He woke up breathing heavily as if he had seen a nightmare. Something was wrong, he knew it. But he couldn't tell what it was. It felt as if it was right there in front of him but he still couldn't understand what it was and how it had happened. He groaned and finally looked around the room. That was the moment it all came crashing down on him what had happened. The impact made the blood beat in his brain. He facepalmed.That was the moment the events of last night started to come back slowly, like a broken record, each one more shocking than the other. A pang of shock ran through him as he remembered every single one of it. He never thought it would happen, but he clearly remembered it all. He hs float himself in it, and before he could control himself and stop, it was already too late. He bowed his head as the wave of guilt washed over him. They had crossed a line that they shouldn't have, and now he was filled with sha

SWEETHEART
The dark room exactly foretold what their mission was. The men in the room were patiently waiting. Their boss had informed them that they were going to wait for a little while before they carried their plans into motion,and they patiently waited but one could tell that their patience was running thin. He said he had gotten another message from his informant, yet the message hadn't even been delivered to them. Just soon after, they heard a series of footsteps approaching the room. Every man straightened himself and waited. The door opened and their employer walked in, before walking straight to sit at the head of the table. The others watched as he took out a cigar and lit it. He took a puff before one of them questioned him. "Is this mission still going to hold, boss?" The gruff, deep voice questioned. He cleared his throat before he continued, nobody could read the expression on his face. "Of course. I was about to tell you about our new development. I'm happy you guys are alread

SURROUNDED
Chloe's reflexes at this point were very fast. She did what the men couldn't have expected at that moment, especially with how freaked out she was when she saw them. In a trice, she jumped back into the room and slammed the door shut. Thankfully, the door had an automatic lock so the men couldn't open it even as they budged at the door, hoping it would open. Crashing on the floor, her breathing got so intense that Cage who had been startled by the sudden bang felt true fear for a very long time. "What the fuck was that?" He questioned, looking so distraught and immensely shaken. Chloe was still on the floor, trembling like a leaf in the gale while still staring at the door. He followed her line of sight and looked at the door, which made him conclude that she might have seen something dangerous. His brows immediately came together as a chill found its way down his spine. "Talk to me." He whispered, but Chloe was still adamant and so scared. She was still trembling. Unable to wait

ON THE FLOOR!!
The bandits wasted no more time before they started to creep in slowly. They moved like shadows as they started to surround the house, just to make sure that Cage or Chloe found a way out. Only two of them were stationed at the door now, and they were trying their best to get the door down and enter before the police or any security agency was alerted. The fact fact they had cut off the network service was a very good sign that they were getting somewhere. They moved around with purpose and their leader, who was getting fed up, spoke into the walkie-talkie he had been carrying. He was somewhere on the other side of the building, patiently waiting for his men to bring him good news but he hadn't got any and it was getting on his nerves. Cage and Chloe were still struck where they were standing, as they listened to know if the bandits were still outside. They hadn't heard a thing for some time and were starting to suspect that help had come and the men had been chased out, but Cage s

THWARTED
The room fell silent immediately as a pang of fear gripped the both of them. Cage tried to think of something quick to do so he could avert the danger that was staring at him right now but it seemed as if there was nothing he could do. Nothing came to his mind at this point, he couldn't even catch a brainwave at all. He had no idea if it was because he was worried about what the man might do to them now that he had entered the room on his own. The dark, cruel eyes gazed at them as the abductor's voice rose a second time. He sounded so menacing as he ordered them to get on the floor yet again. "Get down on the fucking ground, both of you! And don't even think about trying anything funny, or I'll blow your brains out. And I will not repeat myself again. You both will be dead when I say it again!" He yelled and continued to point the gun at them. Cage glanced back at Chloe and whispered to her, asking her not to do anything rash or hysterical, while also telling her that everything wil

STILL LURKING
Cage breathed a sigh of relief after the news came to him that everyone was alright and nobody had been hurt. He turned to Chloe who still had traces of tears in her eyes. He didn't try to console her because he knew how terrible she must have felt, having seen what just happened. It would be too much for anyone to bear, especially someone who was witnessing that kind of violence for the first time. He led her to a corner. "We need to get out of here, Chloe. Didn't think the bad feeling you had would be this. It's not safe for us to stay any longer, especially now that we know that there is someone who has been following our movements for a time now, someone who has been waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike." He shook his head, knowing that they were very lucky because if the man had shot them before his bodyguards arrived, they would have been long gone before any sort of intervention came to them. She nodded, while looking at their sides. The bodyguards were still around

MICHEAL
The next came with a foreboding, a very bad one. Chleo had been all shifty and uncomfortable the whole day, and once again she complained to Cage about how she felt bad yet again but he assured her that everything was OK and all she was going through was just what she had faced from the attack at her father's place. It had only been two days since it had happened, so it wasn't surprising. They didn't leave the house and tried to rest as much as possible and also do some exercises to get their mind off what had happened. Their business was being handled by their closest associates while they recovered from the traumatic experience. However, Cage was jarred out from his sleep when he heard a blood-curdling scream come from Chloe's room. Without any form of hesitating, Cage bolted out of the bed and raced towards the hallway. His heart was beating fast as he wondered what had happened. Has anyone attacked her? Had those bastards sneaked into their house and somehow attacked. Her. Thos

LONG GONE
The atmosphere atmosphere the room got increasingly tense as Chloe stared at the chilling message that was displayed on her phone screen. They had replied. Her hands trembled uncontrollably as she read the words again, the threat looming over like a dark cloud. She wondered if Micheal was playing a prank on them but she knew for certain that this wasn't any kind of joke. This was real, and they had to find a way to deal with it. The message read. "Surrender yourself in the next three hours, or Micheal will pay the price." "No!" She cried out, not knowing what to do. She was utterly confused and even Cage was shocked. Her heart was pounding in her chest as she struggled to process what was really going on and how bad this was going to be. She knew what was going to happen if they didn't comply with the demands of these people. Nobody needed to tell her twice. Cage quickly took the phone away from her and began to dial a number. "What are you going to do?" She asked him, staring at

A RAY OF HOPE
Cage didn't waste any time before he did what needed to be done. He quickly carried her and got her into the car and rushed to the hospital. He was scared the whole ride because he couldn't bear to see her in such a vulnerable state. He blamed the enemy who had been causing havoc ever since. Chloe had been so restive ever since, and because everything they did got to her, she couldn't concentrate or rest without thinking about the threats they both faced, and now it was Micheal. They had killed Micheal and sent her his butchered body. Remembering the picture brought up a feeling of nausea but he quickly pushed it down and concentrated on getting Chloe to the hospital first. That could come later. He prayed that nothing bad had happened to her and that she would be fine after getting her to the hospital. He didn't stop until he arrived at the large hospital which was a kilometre away from where he lived. As soon as he arrived, the paramedics were alerted and they quickly got into ac
