Pete's POV.

I was in the middle of my own battle as the war between the Minor and Main Family continues.

My body couldn't feel the exhaustion from running, as though I didn't fought over the Minor Family's people, I knew exactly why they didn't targeted me. I badly want to refuse the fact that those goons from the Minor Family didn't even fight back when I was totally and clearly in front of them ready to shoot their faces and pull the trigger of my gun to kill each one of them. Damn! It's like they were neglecting the fact that I am the Head bodyguard of Khun No.  Such an assholes!

I was running through the underground parking lot of the Main Family's residence to catch up one of the bastards from the Minor Clan, he walked away earlier when he bumped into me. I was ready to shoot him but that fucker suddenly backed down as if it is a sin to even give me a slap on the face. Damn you, Vegas! I knew you ordered it! I will definitely avenge my ego once everything's settled!

I saw another Minor Clan's group of men running towards my direction. In a split of second I fearlessly charged towards them, shooting those a bit far from me, while I kicked and punch those closer to me. Not minding the fact that they all refused to fight back and just covered themselves with their arms. Fuck this! I don't know if I should be proud that I only acquired bruises from the impact of my knuckles whenever I punch Khun Gun's men.

I didn't even realized that I finished them all without any help from the other bodyguards. I half run again leaving almost ten of Khun Gun's men lying either unconscious or dead.

I ransacked the whole parking lot to find more of the enemies but I only found some of them already bathing on their own blood. I frustratingly grab my hair, "Pete, where should I go next? " I asked myself.

I looked around, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a man almost one block away from where I am standing. I run towards him and gave a single shot, I managed to aim his right leg. A loud thud was heard as the person fell hard on the ground.  As I went nearer and nearer, I cursed.

"Shia..."

I didn't expected that I would see him here alone. In the midst of the war.  My heart was pounding so badly, as if wanting to go out of my chest. My eyes watered a bit just seeing him. All of the memories I had with Vegas suddenly flowed nonstop, the mixed feelings started to overpower my conciousness. I shivered from my own thoughts, It seemed like I am drowning, I can't breathe!

Vegas was grunting as he lies down there, when he sensed that someone is nearing he fired a bullet, that almost caught me off guard but my senses came back in an instant that I easily dodged the shot.

I was panting when I stopped in front of him. I gripped on my gun tightly, my hands were shaking as well as my whole being. The closer I am to Vegas the more the unexplained sensation grew in me. Hardly biting my lower lip, sweats doubled, and shaky hands, I pointed my gun at him. With my bottled up emotions, the only one that I could grasp at the moment was the anger. I am mad, freaking mad!

When he looked up and recognized me, he stiffened. As if he was in a trance for a moment. He's maybe shocked that he fired at me.

I looked at his wounded leg, something in me flinch. No, I shouldn't be sorry.

I gulped down the lump in my throat and directed my sight elsewhere until it reached the eyes of Vegas. My heart sank. Those dark brown eyes, it holds so much unbearable intense emotions. It was mysterious and enigmatic, as if consuming my soul everytime.

Before he even open his mouth and say something, I attacked and punch his face. Letting go of my gun, I grabbed his collar with my left hand and punch him again with my right. Only the grunts where heard from him. I cursed him. I shouted his name with so much disgust.
