Aaron's POV:
I was in my study doing some research about my next mission when my phone rang, I looked at the caller ID and it was Rayn, my right hand man. 'What does he have to say?' I wondered as I picked up the call.
"Sir, we're in trouble. Your team was having an argument amongst themselves about the perfect place to dump the body when someone heard them. Someone has gotten to know about our plans sir but we've managed to track her down and keep her in our captivity. She has been held down in your warehouse at Parile Street Avenue."
"Stupid men! They had one job and couldn't even do that properly! I'll be there in a matter of minutes, wait for me and DO NOT start questioning her about anything until I get there. Oh and kill them all" I said in a serious monotone voice with a hint of anger at the stupidity of my men.

As I got there, I found a girl who seemed to be of my age, unconscious and tied to a chair.
"So, this is the person who heard our plan huh? I'll make sure she doesn't get a word out.Wait for her to wake up and keep the room surrounded by armed men, she should not be able to escape. Call me when she wakes up.

*Around an hour later*
*A knock on the door and I open it up to see one of my security men standing there*
"She's awake, sir."
"Alright, let's see what she knows" I say as I make my way down the stairs and inside the room where she was held captive.
As I enter, I see her trying to fight off my men and I have to admit, she was quite strong but my double security of 20 men were more than capable of handling her. The stunts she pulled, however, looked like she knew martial arts. A feisty one, I see.
"Sit straight, your attempts of escaping will go to vain and you're not allowed to leave until I know what you heard so I suggest, it's better for both of us if you speak up now!" I spoke in a voice that screams dominance, making sure to scare her even if it's only a little.
"I really don't know what you all were talking about, I swear I have no idea. I was heading to my car when I heard the commotion and tried to listen but be assured, I heard nothing as I was caught before getting to know anything so if you're fearing that I might expose any of your secrets, I have none. However, if you keep me held here, I will escape very soon and after I manage to do that, I'll make sure you get imprisoned for it seems you have some illegal business that you deal with" she spoke in a tone I was unable to comprehend, at some parts it seemed like she was afraid of what was going to happen to her but at the same time, she made a clear statement and didn't have even a hint of fear in it. The two emotions portrayed in her voice contradicted each other and that is what shook me. However, by now I was almost certain that what she was saying was indeed true but I still had to be completely sure. I can't just let her go now, she'll expose me and even though I can kill all the police in the country, it'll be a waste of my time as I have other things to worry about.

I decided to keep her here for a few more days as I get hold of the security cameras of the parking lot to make sure she didn't hear anything that can cause us any harm or a step back in our most important mission of all 22 years of my life.
