Harlow Cole

I groaned as I rubbed my head, I sat up and looked around at my surroundings before a wave of nauseous hit me. I got out of the bed and realized I was in different clothes.

That put me on high alert, I walked out of the bedroom to see Xavier shaking hands with someone.

"It's a pleasure doing business with you Dr.Stevens." Xavier smiled.

"What did you do?" I asked short of breath.

Xavier looked at me before glancing at Dr.Stevens.

"I thought the medication was supposed to knock her out for hours?" He asked.

"It was...it's working she's clearly still weak." Dr.Stevens said.

I held onto the door frame as I tried to balance myself. My vision was in and out but that didn't stop me from starring Xavier down.

"I'm going to go, congratulations Ms.Cole." Dr.Stevens said quickly walking away.

"Harlow, babygirl...it's best if you rest." He said coming towards me.

I weakly grabbed him by his shirt as I felt my knees go weak.

"What did you do?" I asked.

He held onto my shoulders as his eyes darkened.

"I did what needed to be done, now get some rest." He said.

He dragged me back into the room, no matter how much of a fight I tried to put up. I was too weak to do anything, he placed me on the bed before moving my hair out of my face.

"You'll understand once you become a parent, and stop trying to fight that little knife you had I already tossed." He said.

I felt my body lose conscious before everything went black.

I watched as a man exited Xavier's home , he had security all over the place. It took us 24 hours to come up with a solid plan, this was going to be Xaviers last night breathing.

"Y'all ready?" I asked.

Ace looked at his siblings before nodding his head.

"I'm ready." Min-Suk mumbled.

I looked at him.

"You ok?" I asked.

"Just ready to get this shit over with honestly." He shrugged.

"Don't worry it'll be over sooner than you think." I said.

He nodded before we got out the van, Ace and his siblings took the front while Min-Suk and I snuck through the back.

We walked back to back, taking out each man as silent as possible. We heard a few gun shots go off causing us to stop.

"What the hell is going on?" I said.
