All The Little Lights

Chapter 66

'Be a good girl. I'll be back soon. If you try anything, my gun won't hesitate to put a hole in your head.' 

After that, the sound of a door closing was heard and I assumed he was walking away after locking Coffee in his car.

What followed that was a series of footsteps and hushed conversations.

"After getting the file, tell them to meet me at the west docks. I don't think it's safe to meet at our old route since we've lost half our men at the fight. We don't know if any of them have spilled anything, we can't risk a meet up there and walk right into a trap."

"But sir, we need to hit the main roads to reach the western dockyard. That's not safe. Cops are everywhere and there is a high chance that we will be caught."

"That's why we are taking the roundabout so that we can load some stuff on our way." He said and for the next few seconds silence reigned.

"...what about the girl, sir?" One of them asked and I could hear the hesitance in his voice, fearing his boss's reaction.

"She..?"

The sound of Jake's chuckle echoed from the speaker and I fisted my palms.

"Well…for starters, I would have my way with her. She is really something…I don't know what inside those little pants made me addicted to that bitch."

I gritted my teeth very hard and I swear I was a second away from smashing my phone on the floor. If it wasn't for Cadden's hand that was on my shoulder throughout the time we sat listening to the recordings in the stud, I would've most definitely turned my phone into pieces.

"..Anyway, we have to take her to the ship. Trust me, she will be our personal drug carrier. But first we need to get the file and then need to drive to the roundabout road to our old storeroom. I'm sure I would get the time to fuc-"

"That's it." I gritted closing the app before pocketing my phone.

I was breathing heavily and all I could see was red. Her screams and cries when he touched her made me want to punch the everlasting hell out of him and give him the worst death one could ever dream of.

"What's this roundabout road and west docks?" Mr. Winx inquired, as I finally grasped back my control and turned towards the group who too were listening in.

Mr. Gwen's face was red with anger and he was clenching his fist tightly to the point his knuckles were white. From the way Mr. Winx held onto his fiancé's arm, it was clear he was not only grounding Mr. Gwen but himself too.

Miss. Humbert was in utter turmoil. She was crying and cursing at the same time while Cadden stood beside her not knowing what to say or do.

"Roundabout bridge is the shortest way to reach the western shores. But it's more dangerous and difficult at night. It's quite a maze with the trashy streets and countless deadends. It's almost impossible to reach our destination. I don't know how we would be able to find her there. I've never been there in my lifetime and it's partially Jake's domain. Most of the buildings there are empty. It is one of the darkest parts of the city." Cadden remarked grimly.

"You're saying we won't be able to find her?" Miss. Humbert scowled, her eyes red with tears and anger.

"No! That was not what I meant. What I meant to say is, we don't have much time and we need to get there as soon as possible. But without knowing the way into the tunnel, the chances of us getting trapped in there is high and I am afraid we won't be able to find her before it's too late."
