Zuri POV:
Walking into the boardroom Mark's head shoots up in my direction
"You just got released from the hospital, shouldn't you be resting," Mark asked as I walked toward him
"Yeah perhaps but I have a mission to finish," I say looking at some blueprints on the table
"Is this the blueprints to Mr Grazia's house" I ask brining one closer to me
"Yes ma'am the team was able to track his movements and his been in these three places in the last 3 days" the guy in front of me says
"Evan?" I ask the guy for his name
"No, Luke," he says and I nod taking the blueprints from him
"Well, Luke thank you and you guys can take a 1 hour break I just have to look over these for awhile okay"I say and he nods. He turns to leave and I sit down bringing the blueprints closer
Blueprint one reads Mr. Grazia's compound – this should be where he makes his drugs
Second blueprint – His house
The third blueprint- is some warehouse in Rio
Looking over all the blueprints I try to remember any familiar sounds I heard from the call
Flashback
"You are not safe, th-they are coming for you" Jody sobs out. My heart drops and I whisper into the phone
"What are you talking about"I ask her . Hearing some weird background noises
End of flashback
Weird background noises
"They were weird background noises," I say looking frantically at the blueprints in front of me
"Weird noises how" Mark asked hovering over me as he scans the blueprints
"Something like pipe's, dripping water, and sounds of polyethylene plastic sheets slapping against I don't know the wall or the floor" stopping in my track I look up at Mark
"She's not in any of these. It has to be at some construction site where Mr Grazia knows for sure that no one will be in and out of there without his permission" looking back at the files .Mark grips my shoulder squeezing gently
"That means the team has to figure out where could he be starting any projects old or new" Mark says standing up straight
"Okay well we got that" pushing out of my chair I start to walk towards the door
"Zuri could we please talk" Mark sighs out and I slowly turn to face him
"We really don't have to" I sternly say and he frowns walking towards me
"What happened to us," he asked caressing my cheek
"People change I guess" I look away from him but he lightly grabbed my chin making me look back at him
"Not us" he softly whispers and I sigh
"Look the team has 1 hour to take a break could we please use that time to just talk about us" he says and I frown
"I-"
"Please" he says tucking the two strands that hang loosely in front of my face behind my ears
"Okay" I whisper out
"Thank you" he lightly plants a kiss on my forehead. Moving away he guides me to sit down and he goes to sit directly opposite of me
"Look Zuri I really want us to work" he says clasping his hands and putting them on the table
"I know –"
"Then what are you doing with Hunter" he frowns and I sigh folding my arms
"I don't know"I honestly say and he tilts his head looking so unimpressed
"You don't know" he repeated and I nodded
"Zuri I love you I have always loved you . It's been 5 years and still to this day you're one of the best things that have ever happened to me" he looks at me lovingly. A tear falls down and I quickly wipe it away
"I'm trying I'm really trying to make up for the time I wasn't there and hopefully one day I can make you my-" a knock at the door cuts Mark off. The door flies open and Hunter walks in
"Oh there you are, you didn't come to training so I've been looking for you," Hunter says looking at me
"I-"
"Hunter do me a favour can you leave me and Zuri we have a few things to discuss" Mark says glaring at him
"Sir that's totally up to Zuri to decide" Hunter says looking at me and I freeze
Oh my fucks are they serious right now. They really want me to choose. I can't choose I'm the most indecisive person I know .
Hell I didn't know whether I wanted a girl or boy but I luckily got both
"Uhm" looking at Mark my heart breaks this man really loves me and I'm just throwing that away
"Hunter could you please leave Mark and I to talk"I say looking at Hunter. Clenching his jaw he nods and he turns to leave
"Thank you" Mark says and I turn to him. A smile spread on my face
"I hate that guy" he says rolling his eyes and I chuckle
"I know," I say and he smiles
"Zuri please" Mark stands up and he walks over to me and he kneel's down grabbing my hand "-just give us another chance. I know I didn't ask before but I'm asking now"he plants a kiss on my hand
"Okay" I nod and he eagerly looks up at me
"Really," he asked and I eagerly nodded
"Next time I kneel like this I'll be proposing" he grins and I scoff shoving his shoulder
"But seriously I really want us to work," he says growing serious
"I know me too" grabbing his face I gently peck his lips. He urgently stands up and he picks me up placing me on the blueprints
Deepening the kiss he stands in between my legs. He wraps his arm around my waist bringing me closer to him
Heavy breathing we both pull away from the kiss
"I am the only one that gets to kiss you like this" he says running his thumb over my lips
"And you are" I clarify for him and he smiles pecking my lips again.
He starts to plant kisses along my chest and today was a great day to wear an off-the-shoulder dress. Wait the kids I haven't checked up on them
"No stop if we continue we are going to fuck and to be fair I would love that but I haven't seen the kids today" I say in between moans.
"Oh you haven't" I sense playfulness in his tone. I am about to say something but his hand grazes over my inner thigh
"Fuck the kids can wait" he says bringing his hand over my bare pussy feeling how wet I am
"Yeah they can"I moan as I arch my back to give him better access
