"You really need to stop walking out when the discussion gets a bit tensed," Levi said as soon as he got into the room. "Well, I wouldn't have to get tensed if you would just listen to me and do as I say," Brittany replied, and removed his face from him. Something about it pissed her off the more she saw it. Levi looked at her and scoffed. Her pretense to not want to see his face was kind of lovely. "You need to get this thought out of your mind. You know that I listen to you and I do everything you want but you not wanting to do this is just absurd.""How is it absurd?! You want to use me as bait?" Brittany charged at him. "When you say it like that, you make it sound like I am doing everything in my power to wreck you. You do know that I am in on this as well right? I mean, it's not only your life that will be disturbed? Mine will as well. We will be putting ourselves in harm's way but I promise you that we will get out of it. As a matter of fact, it's the only way this is actua
"We can do this," Levi said to himself while looking at his friends and when he realized that they could not here why he was saying, he finally opened his mouth to talk.."We can do this. We just need to be more organized and make fast decisions." "Levi is right. We can do this. And besides, it's better late than never. If we let this go now, we may lose this opportunity forever," Jake said. "I don't think you guys fully understand what you want to do. You want to make one of the most feared man in this country to stake all his money on some pieces of land that don't even exist. What do you think will happen to you guys once he loses that money?" "Well, what can I say. He won't be able to do anything because he will have no funding.""Exactly. He will have no funding to take care of anything he needs. Including Susan.""He may not have money but he will still have some loyal men that will be willing to do anything he asks. And one of the things he asks for maybe just be your head o
"Mark, what the hell is that?" Levi said as Jake scurried behind him to hide. It was the second time he had a gun pointed to his face and he knew that it was just a matter of time before he would be shot."What?" Mark asked as if he did not know what he was holding or worse, the damage such things could do. "You are holding a gun and pointing it at me. What the hell is going on?!" Levi asked. If he as about to be betrayed by Mark again, he would be livid. He had trusted that man and would be heartbroken if he learnt that all that was in vain and the guy actually was still against him. Immediately, Mark's eyes widen and he looked this hand. "Oh, I am so sorry about this. I did not even know I was holding it." "What?" Levi did not know how that was possible and so he asked. "No, I mean I did know that I was holding it obviously but I did not know that I was actually pointing it at you still. It was a safety measures. We can't be too careful this period. Especially with everyone tryi
The day flew by like a breeze. Levi could feel his stomach tightening and lossening intermittently. He wasn't worried for himself. No he as more concerned for the people around him. The people that he knew it was his responsibility to protect and guide. He was more concerned about Jake, about Brittany, about Brittany's mom, about his uncle. Hell he was even worried about Mark. He would not be okay with himself if he allowed anything to happen to those people. He needed to let them be safe..he had to make sure that they were safe. No matter what it took him, he had to ensure that those people were safe and protected. And so he looked at the plan, analyzed what they had planned to do and finally, looked at the lives that were prepared to sacrifice themselves just to keep him safe.He did not take any of them for granted but he had also wished that at least he had some sort of superpowers to actually keep them safe and protect them against all harm. Since he did not, he would just have
"What took you so long?" The girl asked as she saw the person she was waiting for finally approaching her table. "I'm sorry about that. It was a bit difficult coming finding a way to leave the house. Had to leave without anyone knowing," she responded and took a seat. "But why are you sneaking out of the house? What's going on?" The girl took a long sigh. "Well, the boys are hatching up some terrible plan and I think that if I don't help them fix it, then they will be getting themselves into more trouble than they can get out of." "What kind of trouble though?" She asked and the girl went mute. "Brittany, I asked you a question," she nudged, making her spark back to life. "I know. I wasn't deaf when you asked it." "Well, you haven't given me an answer so maybe you were." "Look, I can't really tell you what the boys are doing but they are doing something stupid." "If you can't tell me what it is they are doing, how do you expect me to help you out?" "Because it's you. C
"What are you doing here?" Jake asked as soon as he reached their table. "Oh," Brittany chuckled. "I just came out to meet my friend. You know it has been such a long time since I last met her and I just wanted to catch up since I learnt that she was in town." "Wow. That's really great. So how about you introduce me to your very beautiful friend," Jake said with a grin on his face, making Brittany to sigh. "Oh, I wouldn't get any ideas if I were you. You see, she is already taken. Yeah, she is married. Which is why she doesn't stay around." "Oh I have been recently divorced," Sasha said, standing up. "Hi. I'm Sasha," she extended her hand to Jake to shake and that smile that Brittany hated so much was still plastered on her face. "I'm Jake and it is a pleasure to meet you," Jake said with his eyes fixed on her. Brittany could tell that he was already falling for her tricks and he could not allow that to happen. "What? How could I didn't know about this?" Brittany said, trying t
"Jake, you are back." The rising of the sun still met Jake coming back home. Levi was surprised that he was actually back on time. Normally, he was the type who like to stay out till late. According to him, he enjoy the outside view better than the inside but he was so jealous that he did not like to share it would people. Which was why he was still single. "Yeah, I knew this was important so I decided to come back early.""Well, I just say that I am happy about that. Here, come in now. We need to go over what we will be doing. Let me go wake Brittany." "Oh she is back already?" Jake asked. "Yeah. She is." "That's nice. I was actually thinking that she may want to stay with her friend for a while longer but I guess not," Jake commented. "You met her friend," Levi asked. "Yeah. She is a really nice girl. Its so sad that she just got divorced though." "Really? Well that's interesting. She did not mention that you ran into her." "Oh, maybe she was just so tired to do so. Why not
"Took you long enough," Levi commented when he saw her approaching the palour."A girl needs to ensure that she is looking good at all times. Now," jumping into bed, she said. "What's this meeting for?" "Well, Mark is supposed to brief us on what we will do tomorrow. Plus, we are to meet with the men he hired so that we can get acquainted with the ones assigned to us." "What do you mean by get acquainted with the men assigned to us?" "Well, I mean exactly what I said. You can't actually expect me to allow this slide, can you? I need to ensure that you guys are safe at all times. And this simply means me ensuring that you all have bodyguards assigned to you.""You do know that we are not the one in danger right now, don't you?" She asked. "You are all in danger at the moment. Listen, if we are going to be able to succeed in this, then we will need to look out for each other and I can't allow myself to be distracted because I feel like you guys are not safe. Which is why I need to e
