Liam Hunt's POV

"Fred, can you look into these files for me?" I said as Fred was walking in front of my office.

"Which one?" He asked as I handed him over the files that have the latest crime on the wanted list of Interpol.

"The organization of Femme Fatale?" He asked. I nodded as I was typing into my computer.

"What are you working on right now?" He asked as he tried to take a look at my computer.

"I was trying to get some information for the Femme Fatale from my dear old friend," I said as I was typing an email to someone that I knew. I smiled when I composed the email.

"Is it a woman or a guy?" He asked again. I looked at him and just smiled while my hands were still typing.

"I'll leave that to your imagination," I said as I was composing my email as usual because he would know it came from me.

"Alright then. Happy emailing, sir," he said as he went out of the room. I chuckled at his flushed face.

"And sent," I said as I was looking at the email before opening a new one of tab in Google Chrome. I opened my private tabs and looked up the information about the Femme Fatale. I looked at the logo of the Femme Fatale. It has a red arrow and some stars that were circling the arrow. I counted it and it has 5 stars. I wondered what could that mean.

"This organization was so much similar to the organization that Mia used to work for. Could it be?" I asked before a ding notification of my email was coming in. I opened the email tab and read the reply to my dear old friend.

"Bingo!" I said as I have now found the location of the person that I have been searching for quite some time now. I looked at the time and it was 5 PM. It was time to go home and tell Leo about this exciting news.

"Let's bring your mommy home," I whispered as I got up from my chair, took my jacket from my seat, and went out of the office with my briefcase that contained my laptop and out of the building for this exciting news cannot be waited to share with my feline friend.

"Leo! I'm home," I said as I walked through the door. I opened the lights and something was off. I did not know but it was a feeling, a gut feeling that someone was inside my home.

"Damn it. I need to change these locks," I whispered as I was trying to search for my guns.

"Change it and I will break you in your sleep," a familiar voice hit my eardrum. I stopped in my action and looked in the direction of the voice. I was breathing heavily as I looked at the woman that was standing in front of me. I blinked a few times as I saw Leo snuggling in her arms. I could not believe it.

"Mia?" I said, barely enough to hear like a whisper.

"Yes?" She said as she was letting Leo off of her arms. Anger was rising in my blood but I needed to cool it down before striking her at the right moment.

"My sweet Mia," I said as I let go of my briefcase and I walked toward her. She was standing there, smiling happily before I tried to punch her face.

"Whoa, easy there, tiger," she said laughing at my attempt. I tsked again and I kicked her this time.

"Liam, it's me," Mia said but I don't care who she was. Mia Duncan was dead to me.

"Liam!" Mia shouted as we were having combats right now. I kicked her but she somersaulted onto the sofas before I kicked the sofa that making her stumble back.

"Ah!" She said before she landed on her hands and gained balance back after she stood on her feet.

"Liam, what has gone into you?" She said but I don't care. I took the vases and the pillows that were near me and threw them at her.
