Lost in my train of thoughts I didn’t realise that we had arrived at the destination untill La shut her side of the door. I followed her out of the car into the huge garage looking building. Before I could have a look outside La was already inside the building making me run behind her.


    “Stop leaving me behind, woman!” I growled at her lowly as i came by her side. She looked at me annoyed, “Then stop scrutinizing everything! And you won’t be left behind.” She said honestly making me chuckle.


    After talking with this man who help La arrange for the bike, he and his men loaded the beautiful blue beast into the back of the truck. We were standing few feets away from the truck thanking the trader when La’s phone rung. She looked at the caller ID that showed Gerardo’s name. As soon as she picked up the call the smile from her lips fell.


    “RUN!” She yelled loudly making a run for the truck. In confusion and fear at her tone I ran towards the truck as well. My heart stopped when I heard gunshots being fired. I hurriedly got inside the truck as La reversed the truck and sped the truck out of there.


    Gerardo’s POV


    I was sipping my coffee as my eyes remained on theputer screen but my head was somewhere else. On a certain blonde with fiery blue eyes, such deep eyes that never seem to make my day. I will be honest, when I first met her, we started off at the wrong foot but somehow there was a calm in me when I see her angry red face resembling a volcano. I did wanted to apologise to her but I liked how she was standing up to me and showing me my ce. If I wanted I would have just ignored her presence for all the time she would be in front of me but I couldn’t. Though she still really gets on my nerve sometimes and makes me wanna shoot her in the head. I can’t possibly deny the fact that she adds color in my life.


    I wouldn’t have ever epted this myself but she is something, even though she is a chaos herself, she manages to calm the monster in me. I still remember when she was eating brownies with her sister and I couldn’t stop myself from messing with her. I got her angry to the point she threw the ss pan at me.


    I chuckled at the memory, the way her eyes widen when she realised that she threw the rest of the brownie away was hrious.


    My phone binged with a message making me snap out of my dreand. My brows furrowed in confusion when I saw the message was from an unknown number but my breath was knocked out of my lungs when I saw that there is a picture where La and Lilith were standing somewhere  and someone had a gun pointed from a far distance. My phone binged again, there was a message from the same number, “Two less woman in the world.” The message said.


    I pulled out my personal phone and called La. And I contacted Landon from the other. In two rings La picked up the call, “RUN! THEY HAVE GUNS POINTED AT YOU!” I yelled at her. I head her yelled ‘run’ to Lilith  as the call ended.


    Landon picked up the call, “Someone has targeted La and Lilith! Who is with them?” I ask running out of the office and into the elevator.


    “Flynn asked three men to follow them when they were sneaking off” he replied hurriedly.


    “Contact them to get the girls back home safely. I aming back home!” I said and cut off the call without hearing from him. As soon as the elevator door opened I ran towards my car and sped off back home.


    My heart was racing in fear of both La and Lilith. For the first time ever I was scared to lose someone I never had and this is not settling well with me.

    Third person’s POV


    The two kept on shaking on their way back, La never reduced the speed of the car. La knew all about what Gerardo did behind the curtains and she was though not pleased but she loved Flynn regardless. But for the first time ever she felt what others have felt, the sheer terror of dying. She knew what she had to do when she reaches home… Hopefully when and not if.


    Lilith recieved multiple threats throughout her career, death threats, rape threats, acid attack threats etc. Some seemed like an angry teenager wrote it while some send chill down her spine in fear. But she faced them all with a brave face.


    But today,,, the near death experience put a undying fear in her. Her ears kept ringing with the sounds of gunshots being fired, after years.. she was having a panic attack beside her sister who was looking at the rear view mirror with horror written on her face.


    “Somebody is following us!” La cried and increased the speed. Her hands kept shaking and tears rolled down her eyes but survival instinct had kicked in. It did matter what was going on inside her all that wa sin her mind was surviving.Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Lilith looked back at the back suv following us with wide eye. Her hands banged on the dashboard, “DRIVE, DRIVE!! THEY ARE CATCHING UP!” Lilith yelled in desperation.


    The nerves in their head was throbbing with distress.


    “fuck fuck fuck fuck” La mumbled as the car hit 180km/h zooming past the still and silent forest that have hundred of year’s secret.


    The sudden ringing of Lilith’s phone made the two of them jump in fright, with shaking fingers Lilith picked up her phone quickly, to see Gerardo’s name shing on the screen. She picked up the call and put it on speaker.


    “They are our men. Don’t drive away from them.” Gerardo said from the other side.


    La reduced the speed taking a breath of relief.


    “Can someone from that car drive us back?” La asked, her voice shaking softly. The two of them were covered in sweat with what had happened in thest 20 minutes.


    “Yes of course, pull to the side but you guys don’t get out. Whoever is driving get on the backseat from inside.” Gerardo said and hung up the phone.


    La did as she was told to do, the two sisters looked intently at the suv behind them, pulling up and after a couple of seconds, Ondo, La’s guard walked out of that suv and got inside the truck.


    Throughout the ride neither of them spoke a word when Ondo asked thedies if they were okay, he didn’t get anything in reply. He understood the terror that might be going through them at the moment, he has himself been through it multiple times.


    As soon as the car stopped in front of the mansion La flew out of the car and ran into Flynn’s arms. Whereas Lilith was looking around for her brothers but they weren’t around. The desperation to hold someone was very high, she needed someone. When Gerardo walked out of the mansion hearing the engine, Lilith ran right in his arms.


    Gerardo was in the state of shock for a moment. It seemed like his mind has stopped functioning for a minute. Only when she tighten her arms around him more did he register the situation and instinctively wrapped his arms around her in a vice grip.


    Lilith’s POV


    I was far from reality, I didn’t know what I was doing. All I knew was I was safe in warmth and that’s all I was concerned about. His sensual smell waltz into my senses making my insides a haywire. I feeling of content sprawled across me. My headyed t on his chest hearing the erratic beating of his heart. He hugged me tightly, one of his hands running up and down my back, trying to calm me.


    In that moment I felt something very foreign inside me bubbling up,ing to the surface.


    “Are you all right?” He asked rubbing my head. I looked up at him, his eyes for the first time ever looked so soft, full of emotions and warmth. And all that was directed to me.


    My heart fluttered like a butterfly but I answered him in all honesty, “No” I whispered softly and buried my face on his chest again.


    “It’s okay, let’s get the two of you inside.” He said pulling away from the hug awkwardly. I nodded my head in understanding and walked into the mansion.


    “You two should go and freshen up a little..” Flynn said and pulled La upstairs to their room, leaving me, Gerardo and a few men in the living room.


    “Where are my brothers?” I suddenly asked remembering they weren’t there when I came back but they were supposedly here in the morning.


    “They are on their way here.” Ondo replied following Gerardo upstairs who is busy whisper yelling at two other men.


    I nodded my head and waited for a couple of seconds before they disappeared from sight.


    Turning on the shower, the cold water cascaded down my head, cooling it down. My brain can’t seem to stop reying the event over and over again. I grabbed onto the wall when i began feeling dizzy again. My mind went nk for a couple of minutes, I felt like I was floating in the air.


    I turning off the shower, I walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my head and my body. I went through my clothes with a nk mind as afraid as I am for my life. I couldn’t help but wonder, there are many who might wanna kill me but none of them know where I am. When I took off from work I told them I was going to Maldives, so all my enemies would be looking there.


    Suddenly my mind started racing making me dizzy again. I sat on the bed as various scenarios ran through my head, suddenly something clicked in my head. I hurriedly wore my pants and threw a random t-shirt and made my way towards Gerardo’s office.
