DESTINED

Chapter 31

Gun shots were fired on the outside, Tiger got out of the truck, approaching Zac's other car.

Tiger: I don't know who you are, but you need to stand down.

King: Like hell, tell your boss to come speak for himself.

Zac's truck pulled up behind Mr Wilson's car, he knows it, knocking on the window, Duke rolled it down.

Duke: What the hell are you doing here Taylor.

Zac: Same reason you are here, power.

Duke: You need to let us professionals handle this.

Zac: Call Me Wilson and tell him I want 59% and we work together with our teams.

Upstairs.

Ian: Whatever happens, just know I never stop loving -

There was an explosion that shook the building. Fatima held on to Ian tightly, his men all picking up weapons to go fight.

Ian: Both of you stay here.

Madam: No, we're coming, Fatima is the only one that can stop him.

Ian knew Madam was right.

Ian: Fine, but be careful, as you can hear, they shoot first and ask questions later.

Bullet after bullet, men falling to the ground on each side, Duke and Zac working together for a mutual goal. As the shooting went on, he saw her, his wife. It was dark but that body, was hers.

Zac: Fatima. (He whispered to himself).

She was running past the bulletproof glass door when Zac saw her. He tried to move closer to get a clear view, but it was tough. Tiger got hit in the leg, Ricky had disappeared to the back to find another entrance.

He stood inside, behind Raphael, aiming at his leg, he fired the shot. Everyone turned, Ricky stood there but Ian wasted no time, sending a bullet to the abdomen.

Ricky: Zac! (Called out and fell to the ground).

Raphael: Go do what you need to do.

Fatima and Madam ran back up to the room, packing up things and Fatima confirmed payment on the computer.

Duke: Traitors. (He startled them, pointing a gun).

Madam: Put that gun down.

Duke: Aren't y'all supposed to be with your kids?

Ian: I wouldn't do that if I were you. (Coming from behind).

Duke: What do you have on them? Let them go and you can keep your things.

Fatima heard Zac's voice on Duke's radio calling out for help. Her eyes got wide.

Duke: You know that voice huh? He's here, injured.

Fatima: Ian put the gun down, everyone can walk out of this unharmed.

Zac: Duke!!! Your guy is bleeding out, answer me.

Duke took one hand and spoke into the radio, informing Zac to come upstairs. When he got there, he didn't believe his eyes.

Raphael: It's a family affair.

Zac: Let my wife go.

Ian: She came here on her own, I'm not holding her hostage.

Duke: I found them packing up and clearing the computer. They work with him.
