"I'm.. fine"Erica could feel his warm breath against her shoulder and she moved uncomfortably."Stay still, I'm resting." Sullivan pouted resting his chin on her shoulders.The water from his hair dripped on her shoulders, and she could smell his shampoo and it reminded her of fresh roses."What are you doing?" Erica shook him off from her shoulder.This act caused Sullivan to burst into laughter and Erica's ears to turn red.He freed her from his grip."Don't move," Sullivan ordered when he noticed she was about to run off.He went over to his wardrobe and took the first aid kit box.He placed it on the floor and squatted, opening the box as he searched for the tools."You should get dressed, I can apply the treatment by myself.""Does it bother you that I'm not wearing any clothes beneath this robe or are you just shy? " He said with his gaze still glued to the first aid kit, searching for the antiseptic.Erica's face turned red, this man was shamelessly flirting with her."I'm not
"I have a job for you," Jason smirked."What can I do for you boss?" The voice asked eagerly."Meet me at the regular spot." Jason ended the call without waiting for any response."Sullivan just you wait."Jason gritted his teeth with a dark smile" You'll never know what hit you."Jason is seen drinking at his favorite club with two beautiful ladies caressing his body gently.A man walked in and Jason immediately dismissed the ladies."You're late." Jason frowned and tilted his head to get a good look at the man in front of him."Boss I apologize for my behavior but I had to make sure I wasn't being followed." The man said quickly.Jason sighed deeply, shaking his head as he filled his glass from the bottle of scotch on the table."It seems my father is determined to keep an eye on me," Jason said leaning backward on his seat with his drink.The man didn't reply; he just kept his gaze on the floor waiting for his assignment.Jason looked like he was deep in thought as he took a seat wi
General, your wife has been poisoned."Sullivan and John's eyes widened in shock."What do you mean."Sullivan roared in anger.The doctor was so shaken up with fear that he could not speak.Sullivan noticed the doctor's expression and decided to calm himself."Is there a cure?" Sullivan said, trying his best not to sound harsh."General this poison is unlike anything I've seen in my life so I cannot assure you of anything." The doctor said, bowing his head."Find a cure immediately," Sullivan yelled."I'll try my best but I can't promise anything." The doctor said Sullivan gave him a death stare With a poison as deadly as this, I will advise you to find the person who did this there's a chance they will use an antidote in case they consume it mistakenly.""How long does she have?"Sullivan asked, turning his gaze to Erica."I'm not an expert when it comes to poison but I'd say a week or maybe less.""Alright then," Sullivan replied and signaled John to see the doctor off."Sullivan.."
"What do we have here?"The maid was breathing heavily, with her face covered up in sweat."It seems you must have been running for quite some time," Sullivan said with no expression as he gently trailed the knife down her face, just enough not to cut into her skin."Why am I here? I didn't do anything." the maid gritted her teeth."So where are you going with so much money," Sullivan asked."I was going to meet my mother. She is sick and needs money for treatment, "The maid replied."Lying isn't going to get you out of this situation so I'd suggest you tell me who put you up to this and maybe I'll spare your life." Sullivan offered."I didn't do anything."The maid yelled.Sullivan's eyes darkened as he was beginning to get impatient. He roughly dragged her hair and glared at her."I'll ask you for the last time who put you up to this, "Sullivan yelled, his voice echoing throughout the room causing everyone to shake with fright."I didn't do anything.""Since you refuse to tell me who
Jason was in his regular bar and as usual beautiful ladies were all over him playing against his body while some were feeding him berries dipped in alcohol.Eddie walked in with his fist clenched as he held a huge frown over his face. The moment Jason noticed him he rolled his eyes."What brings you here Eddie I gave you an assignment and you're here losing about or should I assume you are done with your assignment," Jason said to Eddie.One of the ladies poured him a drink and he smirked at the beauty."Thank you, love." He laughed at the lady and she began to blush and the ladies giggled amongst themselves.Eddie scoffed in disgust, you're here drinking and flirting with ladies when we are in serious trouble.Jason raised a brow and glanced at Eddie."What did you do?""Exactly what you asked me to but why did you tell me it was the dragon general," Eddie yelled."Keep your voice down." Jason rushed over to Eddie grabbing his shirt."You sent me on a suicide mission, how dare you se
"When we got to his apartment he was found dead."John sighed."What did you just say," Sullivan asked in shock."General the assassin was found dead in his apartment." "What was the cause of death?"Sullivan stared into thin space."It was suicide," John replied."I gave you a task and you failed, what good is he to me dead." Sullivan gritted his teeth trying his best not to raise his voice at John.John dropped his gaze to the floor feeling ashamed of his incapability to complete his task.Sullivan scoffed biting his lips, huffing in frustration. Suddenly he was beginning to get dizzy, the only lead that they had to track down the antidote just vanished, and given Erica's condition she didn't have much time left. Sullivan clenched his fist in desperation, he searched for years and found Erica so he had no intention of losing her even if it meant he would have to turn the city upside down, he had to save his wife.John noticed the frustration of the general, if he lost his wife it w
The moment Jason jab strode into the living room he was greeted with the disdainful gaze of parents."Where have you been?"His father asked harshly."I've been in the club," Jason replied with a nonchalant expression, trying to move to his room."Is that so." His father remarked causing Jason to pause.He sensed something unusual about the tone his father used to speak to him. He began to wonder if his father already knew something about what he did."Yes, I've been in the club drowning in my failure since you decided not to help me get my revenge against the dragon general," Jason replied feigning ignorance.Jason's father scoffed, while his mother held her breath it was clear her husband was in a sour mood and she feared what he would do to her son.Jason's father held Jason's chin so he would not avert his gaze and this action made Jason somewhat frightened to the bones."Are you lying to me, boy?" His father narrowed his eyes to look at his soon."F..father I swear I was in the cl
Sullivan beamed a bright smile when he walked into Erica's room. She was dying slowly and he was yet to a cure for her illness. It's been four days since the doctor diagnosed that she was poisoned.These past days have been a living hell and the thought of not finding the antidote dreads him the most."How are you feeling." Sullivan stared Into Erica's beautiful eyes.He reached forward and brushed the side of her hair against his palm."Like I can barely recognize my own body," Erica replied."Good girl."Sullivan smiled at Erica"Just hold on a little longer. I promise to find the antidote.""What if there's no antidote." Erica's gaze dropped.Sullivan could see she was downcast for a moment, he gently helped her cheeks."Do you trust me," Sullivan asked with a serious tone."Of course I do, I trust you more than anyone."Hearing those words Sullivan smiled reaching forward and taking her in his arms sending soft strokes on her back with his fingertips causing Erica to shiver from th
