BLOWN

“Boss, someone is carrying a bomb, we just dictated it, and we have ten minutes before it blows,” Reigns said to Seth in a call.

“What, how could you people let such a thing happen? How could you all be so careless?” Seth yelled.

The gallery was heavily guarded by Seth’s men in order to trap Jack should in case he showed up. Some were disguised, they dressed as the locals so that they could keep their eyes on the crowd. They also had eyes in the sky. Some wore Facial Recognition Shades (FRS) which could tell an enemy from afar, even if he was putting on a skin mask.

Some even waited outside the gallery, far from the gallery as well and also sky scrappers which were close to the gallery. The security was really tight so it was impossible for anyone to come into the gallery with a bomb. Except there was someone helping the enemy.

Boss you have to go back to the car let the men take you home, we’ll make sure we find whoever is responsible for this,” Reigns assured.

“I’m going nowhere, we solve this together, you all should stop treating me like a baby, I was highly trained to fight by my father Tony Milton,” Seth added.

“But boss…” Reigns tried to speak but was caught midsentence.

“No buts, just go find out who is behind it,” Seth yelled.

“The only person we are suspecting is Jack, your cousin, but our men reported that he hasn’t even shown up,” Reigns added.

“He must have seen through our trap and sent someone we’ll never suspect, we need to find out who it is, check out for anything or anyone unusual,” Seth said, walking out of the bar as he triggered his gun and placed it back into his pants.

Just then, a familiar brunette walked up to Seth.

“Seth, is that you?” Rose said with a trembling tone, and immediately Seth turned around and looked at her with hate in his eyes. Her make-up was completely destroyed by tears which have been falling off her eyes since she arrived at the gallery. Why was she crying? Was it because of how she was beginning to lose everything? What was really happening?

“You smoking bitch, what the heck are you doing here?” Seth asked with disdain plastered all over his tone, she was immediately taken aback, her heart clutched immediately he raised his voice at her again, as it began to thump hard, almost escaping from her mouth. She had never seen Seth in that way before, he was really gentle to her, never has he yelled at her in that manner before. All he felt was hatred for her and nothing more. She wasn’t invited for the party, so how the hell did she get in?

“Well I am a celebrity, what do you expect?” She said, hiding her emotions with her pride and drawing in the tear which almost stepped out of her eye.

“I want you out of this place immediately,” He ordered.

“And who are you to ask for that,” She replied.

The gallery was about to blow up, so Seth didn’t have time for her yet.

“I don’t have time for this,” He turned around after giving her a sharp glare, but as he was about to leave, his eyes crossed path with a red twinkling dote in Rose’s stomach. He immediately turned back again.

“Rose, what is around your stomach?” he enquires with caution in his demeanor.

“Nothing,” She said and attempted to walk away, but Seth dragged her back.

“Answer me,” He yelled at her again and she was immediately jolted.

“You don’t have to know Seth, just leave here while you can,” She said with care twinkling in her goldish brown eyes.

Seth immediately tore her shirt, and boom, there it was, a suicide bomb was tied around her waist.

He immediately moved aback slowly, with anxiety visible in his eyes.

“Why are you doing this Rose? Who sent you?” Seth asked.

“A weird guy with a scar on his face, he wants you to come to him, I don’t really know why, but he said he would disable the bomb if you come to him, why does he even want to kill you in the first place? What has such a simple man like you done to him? Please Seth, I don’t want to die and I don’t want you to go to him, he wants you dead, I don’t know what kind of war you have with him, but please, help me,” Rose replied with tears in her eyes.

“Then why didn’t you mention it to me when I asked you to.”

“He wants to kill you Seth, I wanted to sacrifice myself to save you, to show you that I’m sorry, he is a psychopath.”

“But you just said you don’t want to die.”

“Seth it’s complicated,” Rose yelled.

“My lord, can you hear me,” Reigns asked from the speaker.

“Yes, roger.”

“You need to get out of here, we want to do a complete sweep, we think it’s a suicide bomb because no bombs have been detected around the premises,” Reigns said.

“Alright, be quick I think we have only a few minutes left,” Seth said, pretending like he was going to go straight home.

“Yes, my lord, we will make sure we protect the empire and get whoever is behind this. The driver will take you home, my lord, please, play nice,” Reigns replied and shut down the call immediately.

“Take me to him, I think it’s time for me to finish this, ones and for all,” Seth said to Rose, pushing her to lead the way, he still hated her by the way, and if he didn’t care about killing his cousin, he would have allowed her to blow up since that was what she wanted.

Now is Seth making a mistake to go see his cousin alone? What if this was all a trap to bring him down?
