"After all this, you still expect me to put my life in danger more.." He continued, "who knows my life might actually be the next target of course""But, we've not affirmed that those assassin's actually came over there because of you… I was their target" Alex muttered,"Yeah, I know… more reason why I need to stick away from you, cuz the more they see me with you.. the more endangered my life is" Richard reiterated,Alex took a deep sigh, he was right though… His life is in danger truly… Richard noticed his expression and burst into laughter, making Alex wonder why.."C'mon man, I thought you were always acting strong, uhn?" Richard asked,"Sure, I'm strong""Whoa! But the expression I saw just now didn't depict a strong man" Richard burst into laughter again Alex gave a deep sigh, he wasn't quitting after sll…"Relax man, we're talking about my family here… we've come a long way to quit" Richard chuckled, stretching his hand for a shake"Yeah…" Alex smiled, hitting his hand away..
Alex helped Richard gently to the couch… it took a little while for them to get home regarding the outburst they encountered during the day and the safety of their environment.It was only right and proper for them to spend their night in a hotel… Richard couldn't really explain why he had come to admire Alex so much, that he even had to betray his oath of lying to her personal best friend.."You'd do more better than engaging in deep thoughts brother, you should at least take a rest" Alex said, making Richard give a slight giggle."You have no idea what's in my head right now…" he replied,"Oh! Seems like you have a million dollar head, uhn?" Alex said, the duo bursting in laughter.. "I'm wondering which human has a skull with a brain in it and still claims he has a lot of things in it""C'mon… not that, can't just wrap my head around the attack today..""Well, let's just say I was prepared, though I wasn't thinking it'll come early but thanks to my preparation" Alex jeered,He gentl
He really wished he could stop it, but he's come a long way to quit.**SOMEWHERE IN AN UNDERGROUND FACILITY**Right under a heavily guarded facility, five hefty men stood around a table, all of them facing down with a blueish like face cap on them. They were expecting their boss, they all looked up instantly revealing the presence of their boss who walked in to them."Robert thinks he can mess with me.." the man giggled, he picked up a beretta pistol on the table rubbing his hands on it like a little baby.He was the leader of the top Mafia group in the country, rumor has it that his terrain is the third largest in the world giving him enough manpower to face any bodies or government who infuriates him."Men of the underworld," Talbot says, " This is going to be a huge mission… brace yourself."The men all nod, staring curiously at themselves. They know what to doTalbot brings out a large chart from the desk of the table, motioning on his guards to bring him a chair to sit. "We woul
"Where the fuck are you? Why are you guys driving slowly?’ Jaked yelled,."I think the gasket of the car requires water, sir," the officer replied. ‘We had to get water into it sir"‘You guys should attend to it and meet us in the airport as soon as possible, is that clear?’ Jake ordered,‘Yes sir’ the reply came in a faint voice, the call ended.Jake ended the call and continued to the airport with the team without them, they arrived at the airport early enough.Before they settled in the airport Jake called back to find out about the situation of the car. "Fuck!!" He cursed, angrily. He had gotten a negative reply, no progress had been made, instead they had to look for someone to repair it, it appears the damage was much.Alex's call came in when they got to the arrival hall,at exactly twenty minutes past seven.‘Hello sir" Jake called."Yeah, so how's it going.. is the commissioner over there?" Alex's voice rang out"He's not in yet sir.. probably he would be here any minute from
"Very well sir" Jake replied with his face down, feeling greatly nervous.‘You didn't just see this, those attackers drove in with you’ Alfred added as he moved closer. ‘You brought them in, you were working together"‘No… Sir, not the way you think’ Jake stammered, almost in tears."What the fuck did you mean by No? We saw it fool’ Alfred stressed, looking suspiciously at Bobby. ‘You brought those guys here, probably you were an accomplice all this while.Jake was speechless, he knew there was no point arguing as his claims were right but not true. He watched the president usher into another car with Alex and he felt the urge to tell them not to pass the same route they did, to avoid any more attacks cuz he's sure this whole thing happened on their way here…‘Can't you fucking talk? Are you insane?’ Alfred yelled angrily, almost pulling out his gun before being cautioned by those around."Alfred…" a man called, "There's really no need for all of that.. we have something pressing to
~~~~Alex looked around him, crazy thoughts going through his mind… Two husky men sat at the front, their faces staring outside the window..The president was conveyed in another car… Alex gently tapped the pocket knife in his leg, he could feel his blood streaming down because of its piercing.He looked closely to the men around him, they didn't look strong enough for him not to handle.He could bet that their prowess is not upto his… he carefully adjusted himself to be able to pull out the knife real quick.The man sitting by his right hand noticed his expression… "Don't try any fucking thing there man, if you know you don't wanna end in your grave" "Hmmm… hmmm hmmm.." he hummed.."Ermm… ermm, how about you pausing a lil bit.. I want to ease myself" Alex said,They all looked back at him wondering what he's up to, the driver hissed as he turned on the stereo increasing the volume of the music."I want to ease…" Alex yelled.He got his chance when the leader sitting in the front tur
*****Alex brought the car to a halt as he staggered down, they would have to complete their journey with their leg."Are you sure you don't need any rest for now?" Robert asked, "I'll be fine, your excellency… let's just get to safety first"Alex tied his suit jacket around his knee cap, using a nearby stick he found to aid his movement…The duo staggered along the one way deserted road, hoping to see someone around.Luck shone on them as they sighted a black camry sped toward them, Alex smiled as the car moved closer.."Son of a bitch!!" Alex muttered, smiling."Hey man!!" Alfred waved, bringing the car to a stop in front of them..The president rushed to give him a hug but Alex remained unmoved..He'd expected Alfred to come with some extra forces, seeing him alone is making him even more suspicious.."Yo man! What's up with you" Alfred said, proceeding towards Alex.Alex moved back slowly, looking deep into his eyes."Where are the other guy's?" Alex asked, in a cold tone."What
~~~~"Up yet?" Talbot asked, walking into the dimly lit room The men shook their heads insinuating that he is not up yet.He giggled on sighting the duo tied up like slaves to the chair."Jerk the fool up dude" Talbot snapped, motioning the men to do something to wake them up.Two of the men carried a big bowl filled with water as they poured it heavily on the two men.Alex jerked back to life, shaking his body aggressively. Ice had been added to the water making it very cold. He shook his head aggressively, squinting his eyes to see those around him clearly.Talbot walked up to him, giving him a slight slap on the face raising his chin up."Talbot!!" Alex called, his voice already cracked."Yeah man, I'm the one.." Talbot laughed, spreading his arms wide. He could see the terror on Alex's face.He moved over to Robert also, raising his chin up as the water trickled down his hair to his already soaked cloth."You both shouldn't have given us a hard time in getting you… it should have
