Chapter 11

"You're going to help us in robberies."

The words that left Niall's mouth had Eddy narrowing his eyes as he dug his teeth into the gag still tied into his mouth.

Who did this guy think he was? Eddy most definitely was not going to help them.

Rather than granting him any words, Eddy only shook his head while pulling on the cuffs feeling fresh blood start to trail down his skin.

"Did my boss's threat not reach your ears? You have no choice." Niall warned back, watching as Eddy only kept glaring at him.

"Fmm yuu."

Once he understood what Eddy just insulted him with, Niall let out a growl before he was standing up from the chair, one of his hands laced through Eddy's locks and pulling his head back to make him look back at Niall.

"Apparently I'm not making myself clear. You will do what I say or others are going to pay the price."

Before Eddy could do anymore to get under Niall's skin, Ian came into the room. His phone rested in his left hand as he approached Niall, not regarding Eddy whose head was still being forced back in a harsh angle due to the grip Niall had on his hair.

"The doctor is on his way. He'll be here in 30." Ian informed, looking between Niall and the hostage before turning his attention back towards his boss.

"Can I talk to you? Outside?" He didn't give Niall any choice as he was already making his way to the front door.

Niall looked after Ian before glancing back at Eddy.

"We aren't done here."

Following Ian outside, Niall pulled the door shut behind him as Ian pocketed his phone away.

"Are you sure having an unwilling hostage do a job for us is wise? There are too many risks with it, Niall." Ian let his worrying thoughts come out. He never liked to challenge Niall, but with what was being planned and the situation happening, he didn't like the risk of it. And this was coming from a guy who has been successful in many robberies and avoiding the police.

"We have no choice; we need money for the boss or we're dead." The words came out stressed as Niall ran his hand through his blonde locks. Ian could see the faint outline of backs forming under his partner's eyes telling Ian that Niall was starting to have restless nights of sleep due to the stress.

"There has to be another way. Smaller jobs that you and I can do while Keaton is healing."

"There aren't any, Ian. Keaton down leads to less manpower needed for each possible job we can do. The boss already agreed to us using Eddy while Keaton heals. It's either that or he finds someone else."

Those words had Ian letting out a sigh as he looked through the window next to the door to see Eddy watching him. They both knew that the suggestion of finding someone else met death. Both men's attention was pulled to the rocky driveway that led to their cabin. A nice black sedan rolling towards their direction and both of them knew who it was. The vehicle pulled to a stop beside the building for the doctor could be seen stepping out, a black case grasped in his hands. He wore simple teens a red tee as he used his free hand to push his glasses back up to rest correctly.

"Who is it that needs to be looked at?" He asked, making his up the steps towards the two young men.

"One of our hostages, she escaped and went into the river nearly drowning before I got her out. Feels hot but shaking like a leaf." Niall answered, opening the door to have the doctor follow him.
