The November Order

💎 XXIII : Ramone

Aisha grinned when she saw the name on the board, "Ramone freaking Mukama," she chuckled, "some one tell me I'm finally going to kill that bastard?"

Everyone in the room turned to look at her, she still had her head down staring at her phone.

"I remember you saying you retired Aisha," blue said.

The assassin looked up from her phone and grinned, "me being in this room kinda drops the idea of retirement doesn't it?" She chuckled and pushed her phone towards blue, "the pope gave me a provision for two heads."

Blue read the contents of the screen and smiled, "fair enough," he walked back to the board and pointed at a photo pinned on the top right corner, "this is Ramone Mukama, big time lawyer and practically the best thing that happened to Torah Azikiwe," blue turned around and grinned at his audience, "we are doing our best to reduce the bloodshed in this operation but he's one of the people who must be eliminated."

Yomi crossed his legs on the table and leaned back in his chair, "how exactly do you propose we do that boss?"

"That's what we need Cleopatra for," Grey continued. He smiled at adesuwa, "the main thing is we can't just kill off Ramone, we need a lot of information from him. We need someone to get close to him and get him to spill his secrets before we finally shut him up."

"I'm guessing we have some info on this guy to help us get close to him right?" Marley asked, "these kind of people are dangerous so you have to work with them delicately."

Blue removed a folder from the stack close to him, "Everything we have on him is in this folder and the ones currently with Adesuwa and Aisha."

Adesuwa opened her folder and scanned through the documents, "so he schooled in Durban and is currently hiding under a big firms umbrella while dealing with Torah's business. Seems like we already know this lawyer down to his family home so what do you need me for?"

Aisha chuckled, "Ramone is a very slippery guy, he always moves with a security detail and never stays in the same place for too long. He actually isn't as loud as others in his field of work, he keeps a very low profile. The only two constants in his life are his work and his women," she picked her phone from the table, "rather, his love for women."

"That's were you come in," grey exhaled, "he doesn't just run after any woman, he has a fetish for women who he can conquer, he loves ladies that take him on a wild adventure then when he finally beds them once or twice, he kills them."

Adesuwa paled, "you want me to dance around and get close to someone so vile?" she clenched her fists, "he could kill me!"

Blue face palmed and slapped his brother on the back of his head, "Adesuwa don't mind grey, he's terrible with words. We're not sending you to your death bed, or his bed at all," he walked to the board, "what we need you to do is just get the invitation to said bed then aisha will handle the rest just fine."

Adesuwa relaxed and sighed, "what's the plan exactly?"

Blue grinned and placed his hand on the board, "we begin with introductions."

The Chinese restaurant was almost empty but it was filled with the sweet smell of stock and incense. The interior decor was a cross between a bamboo Grove and Buddha shrine.

Ramone grinned as the waiter guided him and Cleopatra to their table. He pulled out a seat for her and then went to his.

"So where are you from?" Ramone asked, he leaned placed his elbows on the table and stared at her.

"Well, I grew up in Lagos State. I've always been there but now, I'm here," she chuckled and waved her hands, "the wonderful city of Benin."

He laughed till tears formed, "I'm sorry but you might just be the only person in the world who will be happy leaving Lagos for this state."
