Levi looked at the cars and saw men on black with guns he never knew existed driving towards them. "Get them out, now!" Mark screamed again and found cover behind an old car. "Can't we just use your car? It's faster!" Brittany suggested with a thumping heart. All she wanted was to get out and to safety. "On me!" The police man shouted as he formed a barricade with his men around Levi and Brittany. They moved speedily towards his car. "No!" Mark screamed when he saw their movement. "The tires are bursted!" He added when he saw the confused look on their faces. This gave the men just enough time to cock their gun and begin shooting. "Get him to cover!" Mark screamed again as he begun firing at the men on black. "We can't escape this." Brittany whispered and held her heart in her hands, scared for her very existence. "Get behind the car," the police man ordered his men and four of them moved led Levi to the back of the car. "We are not going to make it," Brittany said over the
Brittany did not know how they would get out of the mess the had somehow found themselves in but she knew one thing for sure. She had never felt such a rush in her life before. She watched as Mark pressed the pedal to the car and continued driving with so much speed. "We are not going to make it, are we?" She turned and asked Levi."Yes we are. I need you to stop thinking like that because it is really not helping," he added. "Can you shoot?" Mark shouted for Levi to hear. He needed the distraction and the best way to get it was to also distract them. It was the only thing that would save them. "No, but I bet the people driving behind them is already helping us do that," Levi said as he turned to look back and he saw the army of policemen driving behind them and shooting at the men on black. "We need to get out of the road and to a place of safety then," Mark suggested as he turned the car. "How do you plan on doing that?" Levi asked. "We need to find a deserted road," Mark spo
"Mark, what do you have in there?" Levi asked, scared to open the trunk by himself. "A suspect," he said and pulled open the trunk of the car. It was the same bald headed man he saw at the restaurant. "How the hell did you get him inside this trunk?" Levi asked, surprised. Impressed but surprised. "Well, after I finished beating him to pulp, I knew that I could still get some use out of him and so I decided that the best thing to do was to take him and then use him to get the information we need since his counter part is not saying a word." "And how do we know that he is going to speak?" Levi asked. "Well, let's just say that I will be the ones asking the questions this time. So if he doesn't answer, he is in for a treat that is going to make him regret his very existence." Mark said. He was a pretty dangerous man. He knew how to get his way with anything he wanted and he was extremely slick in his movements. Mark understood the kind of criminal this was and he knew tha
"Stop this madness!" Levi ordered from the back. He had stood for minutes and watched as they did nothing but argue between themselves. He could not understand the pride in both men that none of them could apologize or even offer words of support to each other. They were both supposed to work together to keep him safe and as electrical as their performance was, it was not what he needed. He needed peace and a place that would give him the safety he needed."One more word out of any of you and I promise that I will make your life a living hell. Whatever happened to protecting me and keeping me safe? What's all these argument about a body?" "Sir, with all due respect, every suspect must be invested by the police force. Your bodyguard here, though trained, has no right to take custody of him and investigate without a police man being around." "That's funny because last time I remembered, when I was busting my ass trying to get him in the first place I didn't see any sight of you. As
The men took him to a black tinted car. They had arrived with a convoy and Mark was glad that it wasn't the type of obvious cars that would signify that it was a police vehicle. The only sign of it being owned by the police force was the siren that they just had to place on the top of the car. Mark saw it and signed. "Of course such had to be on top. They could not for the life of them, be undercover for once in their ridiculous lives." "Oh no, you don't get to seat there," Jayden said as he saw Mark headed to the back seat of Levi's side after he had successfully placed the suspect in the trunk of the car."What?" He asked even when he knew what the answer would be. "You can't sit with Levi. You need to get into another car." "You must be out of your mind. How many times do I have to tell you that I don't take orders from you?" "I am trying my best to protect Mr. Strauss and I don't feel comfortable with you sitting with him in the same car." "Oh please, do you really think if
The walls were painted white, it brought a cool to the house. None like Brittany had ever experienced before. The chandeliers hung proudly on from the ceiling of the house, illuminating the house. Brittany took more steps into the room, wondering how it got to be so classy. How many days did it take them to erect such a massive structure? For how long have they been handling such building? How exactly could they consider this to be the safe house?So many questions bubbled her mind as she walked around, touching all the furniture and being fascinated by them. She became so lost in her thoughts that she could not feel Levi's eyes on her the whole time. As beautiful as the house was, he was mesmerized by her grace and softness. He walked around slowly, listening to all the murmurs and trying to match her footsteps. He noticed that all the fear she had bottled up had someone left her body. He could see her relaxed and breathing well. Her shoulders were no longer arched. It was resting
Levi took Brittany by the hand. He could feel the stress she was passing through. He knew how tensed he was. He was equally worried, but he wasn't worried for himself. He knew he would be alright at the end of everything. He was more concerned about her. Something clicked in him whenever he saw her smile. It was a simple yet powerful smile that could shake nations. And now that smile was gone. "What exactly am I going to do with you?" He asked, puzzled. "I don't understand," Brittany squinted her eyes, trying to understand what he meant by his words. "Bri, I am promising you that you cannot lose everything. I will personally see to it that your mom is well taken care. She is in a private hospital that I own, I don't care if I have to keep guards at her doorstep 24/7, I don't care if I will prevent all the doctors from going home to rest. What I am promising you now is that I will ensure that your mom is safe and sound."Brittany could see the passion in his eyes. She could hear hi
"What is it?" Levi asked. His mind was troubled and the lines on his face made it too obvious. He did not have the strength, neither did he have the sanity to sort out any differences. "Look, if this is about you and Jayden fighting again, then you are just going to have to find a way and sort it out between yourselves because I am not in the mood to settle differences." "No, that's not the problem.""So what the hell is the problem?" Levi was getting tensed. A lot was happening at the same time and his mental health was being threatened. "It's your uncle." Mark said, making Levi to stop in his steps. He turned abruptly to stare at him. His brain conjured the worse events that could possibly happen. "What happened to him?" He asked immediately "I just got off the phone with Stephanie and she...""And she what?" Levi said when he noticed the silence that Mark immediately had. "She said that your uncle fell. He was rushed to the hospital but we think he has broken a few ribs."
