Till Death - Ace Merrill (BOOK 2)

Let's go

Eyeball was still half asleep as he opened the front door. None of them had had a good nights sleep. They were all on edge.

"Someone mail order a badass guy and a load of dickheads?"

Eyeball rubbed his eyes as he looked out and saw Skylar standing there, the biggest smirk on his face.

"If anyones the dickhead it's you!"

A shout came from behind him. Skylar stepped aside as Eyeball's mouth somewhat dropped at the sight.

The rest of the old squad were all standing around 3 big black jeeps. Each guy was fully dressed in SWAT gear, guns strapped to their legs and in their arms.

"Okay so maybe I'm a dickhead." Skylar shrugged slightly as he turned back to Eyeball.

"You gonna let us in or what?" He snapped at Eyeball's still distracted face.

Eyeball just about managed to nod as he moved aside. Each guy walked straight in like it was their own home, gently smacking his cheek as they passed him. 

"Wake up fuckers!" Marco snapped as he began nudging each of them. "The real heroes are here now."

They all greeted Austin and Hugo warmly as Ace and Oceane slowly walked down the stairs.

Her face almost lit up at the sight of them all standing there. Seth handed Nico his gun as he opened his arms.

"Come here Princess." He mumbled.

Oceane didn't need more than that. She almost leapt at him. His arms wrapped tightly around her as she almost squeezed the life out of him, letting the tears fall.

"Your dad couldn't make it but we got shipped over instead." Evans mumbled as she pulled away from Seth and latched onto him.

"Salvatore sends his best." Marco mumbled as he received his hug from her.

"Now can we get to finding my fucking nephew?!" Skylar snapped.

Oceane stood in front of him as he reached his free hand up and gently brushed the tears from her cheeks.

"Dude stole from the wrong family." Skylar said with a small smile as he used his hand to load his gun.

Oceane forced a smile up at him, yet before she could answer the door went again. Eyeball moved through the agents to open it.

"Hey love." He mumbled as he let Connie inside, she was holding an envelope as she cautiously looked around.

The nerves built in her instantly as she saw all the agents standing there in full gear.

"Am I missing something?" She asked quietly.

"AJ was taken last night." Eyeball leant down and whispered in her ear.

She turned to him confused. "AJ?"

Eyeball gently placed his hands on her head and spun it slightly so she looked back at Ace, Oceane and Austin.

Suddenly she gasped as she almost leapt forward to wrap her arms around Oceane.

Oceane naturally started crying again as Ace walked out the room, he couldn't stand there and listen to her cry. It would set him off.

"What's this?" Evans snapped as he took the envelope from Connie's hands.

Oceane pulled away and was about to tell him off but Connie quickly answered.

"It was taped to your door?"

Marco quickly snatched the envelope and opened it as each agent read the single line on the sheet.
