Love Chase

152 - Escape (1)

* * *

As soon as Lucien left the room, Fyre immediately gave out a huge sigh before he quickly fixed himself by wiping his face and getting off of the bed to survey the room again, but this time a little bit anxiously. The room was just an empty room so there was really nothing he could find to make a weapon of so he didn't have a choice but to do his last resort. He never really thought it would come in handy one day but thankfully, Tian Zi taught him a little bit of self-defense before. It was when he and Tian Zi were still friends and the Alpha was worried that his heat would come to a dangerous place so he taught him something to help him escape such dire situations. Hopefully, he'd still be able to perform it and quickly get out of the room. Besides, he'd be stronger now since he wasn't in heat.

He's already small and didn't have that much strength so if he was in heat he wouldn't have enough strength to knock out a person, his only choice was to go behind the person, and hopefully, he'd be able to hold on to the person until he cut down their air supply. In his head, it was quite simple but he knew it wouldn't be so easy. Nevertheless, he wasted no time and went ahead behind the door where he knew he wouldn't be seen by the next person who would open it.

Impatiently waiting for someone to come, Fyre held on to his necklace where he put both of his engagement rings and prayed he'd have enough strength gathered to execute his plan. Thankfully, he didn't need to wait for long when he heard someone knock on the door and moments later he heard a click from the door which indicated that it had been unlocked before finally, someone pushed it open.

Fyre gulped nervously as he watched a young man's back as he walked inside with the food cart. Fyre waited until he was fully inside as he slowly pushed the door close but not enough to actually close it before he jumped on the man and immediately locked his thin and fragile arms around the person's neck in an attempt to make him faint. Luckily, because the man was average size, the desperate struggle soon ended and he fainted falling on the floor along with Fyre who was panting heavily.

"Fuck that hurts!" Fyre complained, massaging his arms. After making sure that his target had really fainted, Fyre finally let go with a groan. Since he had exerted all of his strength just now, his arms immediately felt sore. Still, it wasn't too much so he could still manage to ignore it. Fyre watched the unconscious man and he thought he'd have to hide the body so he wouldn't be found out immediately but he didn't really have time so what he did was slightly moving the man behind the door and finally sneakily got out of the room.

Carefully, Fyre looked left and right before choosing the left path since even though he was blindfolded when he was sent to the room, he already memorized most of the path he had gone through because he knew he was going to escape sooner or later. Unfortunately, because he had to be careful and there were so many people walking and running around, he simply could not proceed to his escape as quickly as he could.

"That's what he gets for picking a fight with the Boss," one man said excitedly as they walked past Fyre who immediately hid. He listened to the conversation but he didn't really mind it since he was more focused on finding a way to immediately get out of the place. He even thought of going through the window but he'd have to go down to the ground floor for that to work since he didn't think he'd survive if he jumped off from the second floor.

"Yeah! Did you see how he cowardly backed off when the boss approached him? He got some nerves to come here and demand when he can't even stand next to the Boss without his feet trembling, hahaha," the other one replied with a loud laugh while Fyre just wished they would soon pass so he could get out of there.

"Oh damn, yes! Everyone knew Leader favored the Boss above anyone else so it was natural for him to be the next head. Why are they still trying to compete when they know they can't fight against the Boss?'' The previous guy responded to his friend before he shook his head in disappointment. At this point, even though Fyre didn't intend to listen to the conversation, he immediately knew who the two men were talking about. Obviously, it was Lucien and in fact, since the leader of the organization—the Secretary of Defence—went missing, the majority of the members are trying to make Lucien the next head. Well, he wasn't actually that surprised hearing this fact since when he was still with the organization and Lucien was still younger, he was already handling a lot of things to help operate the business. In fact, without him, the organization they are in right now wouldn't have become so successful. That is before Fyre and Tian Zi ruined half of it and now caused their Leader's disappearance.
