"Come on, Vee, pick up." Cian kept saying,his phone in one hand as he was driving to the mall. " 'sshh.. No.. Just say it... Say it.. Fine. Shh. You CAN NOT reach Vixen Scott right now. So leave a message at the tone.. Happy?' "
The pre-recorded voice mail went on once again and the phone beeped. "Vee.I hope you're okay. Switch in your phone, will you?" He spoke the hung up.
Cian began to worry. Vixen's phone was always on. He just hoped she didn't get herself into any trouble.
She can keep herself safe he thought. Right?
He finally reached the main entrance of the mall. But unfortunately, there was no parking space so he turned and drove over to the parking lot at the back of the mall. He parked right at the middle, trying Vixen's cell once more. "Vixen. I'm here. Now switch on your goddamn phone." He left her another voice message, hoping that she's just messing with him. He didn't want to leave the comfort of his Audi S7 Sportback if that was the case.
Cian waited there for twenty minutes. His Paitience started to grow thin, so he got out of his car. Immediately he stepped out of the car, he felt something crack under his foot.
Flustered, Cian closed the car for and stepped aside, looking down to see what he stepped on. To his surprise, it was a phone. Not just any phone though. It was VIXEN'S.
He picked up the busted up phone and looked at it's extremely cracked screen. It didn't take long for Cian to realize that something bad had happened. He immediately got into his car and driver off as fast as he could to the police station.
I guess she can't.
CYRUS FOX
"Here you go, Sir." Andreas said, putting the briefcase containing what I'm hoping is $900, 000 on the table in front of me.
"How did it go?" I asked as the briefcase was opened for me Jorge, another one of my men. "Let's just say, they won't turn us down ever again." Andreas smiled as I looked at the money in the briefcase, taking one wad of cash and flipping it to count it; one band held five thousand dollars.
"Well done, Men." I said and they knew it meant they should leave. No sooner had they left than Savio came to sit next to me. I closed the briefcase as soon as he sat down and give it to another one of my men so that they money can be transferred into the Guatemala account.
"I'm glad you're back, Fox." Savio smiled as he got comfortable, "You mad the right choice."
Did I though?
I sighed. After everything that happened in Sacramento, I guess I did. This right thing felt so... WRONG.
"Don't tell me you actually miss working for that bastard." He said seriously,sitting up straight as so did I. "Of course not. I'm glad I came back. And I'm more than happy that I am my own man again. To work with- "You certainly don't look like it." He interrupted, "This whole month, Since you came back, You've been acting different. You've started hesitating. Something is bothering you, Fox, but I can't seem to figure out what it is."
I've worked with Savio for three years. He's like a brother to me. He knows me. Or at least he tries to.
"I don't see it." I said seriously as I sat up. "If anything, I've gotten better at what I do." "When will you stop lying to yourself?" He chuckled, "You're missing something in Sacramento. Or should I say... Someone?" I tense up a bit. "I thought you said you wouldn't let yourself get weak." He reminded me of the words I said in the conversation we had when we began to work together years ago.
"I am NOT Weak!" I stood, defending myself. It's the business after all.
The minute I finished my sentence, my phone began to ring. Unknown number. I looked up at Savio and he nodded, as if to say I should pick up.
"Cyrus, my good man, " I was about to hang up when one heard Malverick's annoying voice. But then Seconds before I cut the call , I heard an all too familiar voice, "Cyrus?" Vixen's soft voice spoke through the phone, making me freeze. "Do I have your attention, now? He spoke once again, more cheeky than ever.
" So I'm gonna guess you ran away from our little arrangement only 'cause you could. Or at least you thought you could. But that's so unlike you. I mean even if you could try to run away from me, which you can't, you wouldn't leave your precious girlfriend, can you?"
It was enough to threaten my freedom. Involving Vixen in my business was COMPLETELY crossing the line. I began to get really angry.
"Awh, Cat still got your tongue?" He continued, "Maybe She'll get you to talk, hm?" I stayed silent as seconds later Vixen was on the line once again. "Cyrus." She sniffed, "I miss you." "Vee- "uh, uh, uh."
The phone was back with Malverick, "Isn't she worth More than a conversation over the phone? You two love birds definitely need to talk in person. It's only fair. I mean, She's waiting for you, you know?"
He continued, his irritating voice getting on my last nerves.
"If you know what's good for you, Mal, you'll Let her go!" "Or what, Cyrus. What are you gonna do?" He asked mockingly, Maintaining the same voice tone he's had during this whole conversation. "Every Single Thing that I have here? Is what you need. Cyrus, you need me.
"Come on, say it. You neeeed mee."
I stayed silent, not knowing what to say.
He's not right. He can't be right. He's never right. I will Never need him.
"So because you need me So much, why don't you come back. And if not for my sake then, why not hers? Vicky? Is it?"
I was getting infuriated by his mockery. "After all, She misses you." Then the line went dead. Malverick frustrated the hell out of me!
I was so indignant. I really didn't know what else to do. I punched the wall behind me as if it could make the situation any better. But all it did was make my hand begin to bleed from the impact. "AARGH!" I grunted. Savior just relaxed back into his seat and smirked,
"You are not weak, you say?" His Sarcastic voice lingering in the air, hitting me differently this time.
"Well, guess what, Fox? Malverick just started found your weakness." He smiled.
"And he's winning."
******
Wow. Malverick really stepped up his game.
