Loving His Assassin

Chapter 18 : Danger

Edited

Unknown POV:

'Boss, I have what you asked for.'

'"Boss, I have what you asked for."

"Give it to me." the boss ordered while opening her palm.

"Here." the man said while putting a picture in it.

"So, he's the one?" she asked.

"Yes Boss."

"I want him alive, but I don't harm him too much. You're dismissed." she said coldly and waved her hand.

The man bowed his head and exited the room. She was here alone in her office not looking away from the man face on the picture. She touched his face with her thumb.

"Don't worry, my love. We'll be back together soon enough. I just have to liberate you from this man who stole you from me!" She said very coldly.

She pressed a button on her desk and another man came in.

"You called My Lady?"

"Yes, I have something for you to do." she said and opened one of her desk drawers and took out a file. "Here's your next target. I want him dead no matter what."

"As you wish My Lady.' he also bowed his head and went out of the room with a grin on his face.

As soon as this man die, he would be mine again. My little baby would be back in my arms.

"Cole, my baby..."

Back to Nyx POV:

How should I face Derek now? I should have to think twice before I made my little "explosion". I was in the kitchen doing some food for Damon.

Then someone entered the kitchen.

"Sorry man, food's not ready yet." I said without looking at the person.

"It does smell good, but I'm not here for food." said someone and this wasn't Damon's voice.

"Oh, Matt. Are You're searching for Damon? If you're he's not here..." I started.

"No, I'm not here for him. I'm here for you." He interrupted me.

"And you want a portion too?" I tried to joke.

"Tempting, but no thanks. I'm here for a job. I know you're not obligated to help, but just hear me out." Matt started.

"Just shoot man. Talk and I'll decide." I said continuing cooking.

"Well, it's Logan. He's in trouble."

"You serious? Logan in trouble?" I said chuckling.

"I'm not joking Nyx. He disappeared and I can't find him." he scolded me.

"And in what can I help?" I finally looked at him in the eyes.

"Your skills."

"My skills? Last time I checked, Master had enough skilled men to do his job." I said incredulously.

"So it's a yes or not? If you say yes, then just shut up and follow me." he said starting to get impatient and crossed his arms.

"I have nothing to do anyways. Just gave me a few more minutes to finish Damon's food, who's behind you by the way, or he looks like he will kill me."

Matt looked behind him and saw a very pissed Damon.

"Matt, if you try to steal my cook..." he fumed clenching one hand and with his other hand, he pointed his finger at Matt's face.

"I wouldn't dare, calm down man!" he said while holding his hands up in surrender.

"You better." I heard Damon grumble.

"Here's your food man." I said gaining the craving food man attention.

"Finally!" he cheered and Matt and I sneered.

"Can take him now?" asked Matt.

"Yeah..." he answered munching at his food.

We headed to master's office and he knocked. We entered without waiting for an answer and there was Master, of course, Claire, Chris, Matt and me.

"Great, everyone's here. So let's begin." said Claire and looked at master who nodded. "The last few days, Logan worked on a case about some drugs. They caused problems, so we had to take care of it. Normally, Logan should be back yesterday but showed no sign for more than three days. So, Boss decided that we should investigate this case and try to find some clues about this." she explained and then looked to Matt.

"I searched on all the deep web and found nothing about Logan. He seemed to have disappeared. Like there's no trace of him." added Matt.

"Same on the field. He seemed to have accomplished his job and he was on his way back, but the trails stop there." finished Chris.

There was a moment of silence where everyone looked at each other. It was very uncomfortable and very awkward.

"With who did you worked with for the drugs?" I finally broke the silence.

"With another mafia group. We made an alliance with them a while ago." answered Claire.

"What did they expertise in?" I continued to ask.

"Drugs, assassination, kidnapping, prostitution and arms traffic. There's also other things, but that's their major gaining system." explained Claire.

"I also heard that the new boss of the group was some woman that the former boss saved. And well... There was a rumor that the chick killed him." added Chris.

"Mmm okay. I'll go search for some more info on the ground. I'll contact you guys if I find something." I said starting to exit the room.

"But like I said, I already searched for it and I found nothing!" exclaimed Chris.

"You didn't search at the right place nor the right subject." I said and winked playfully at him.

"Chris, go with Nyx." ordered Master.

"I don't need a babysitter thanks." I coldly said at him.

"Not for babysitting, for the experience. And it's an order." he added and glared at me. I could see the challenge in his eyes, but I wasn't in the mood for that.

"Fine, come on Chris!" I exclaimed and made a sign with my find signaling him to follow me. "Let's go to my room first. I need to change and take some weapons."

"I thought we were going to get some info?"

"Yeah, but you think that the people out there will kindly give it to you if you ask?" I asked sarcastically.

"No."

"Okay, wait there... No, in fact, go change too, take something dark and something to hide your face. And... Your weapons too, preferably knives, but guns good too." I said while looking in my drawers something comfortable to wear.

"Okay, I'll wait for ya at the front door when I'm finished."

"Okay..."

I went to take a hit shower and changed to something stylish, black and comfortable. I armed myself, my usual knives, gun and some ammo.

I was about to walk out when I remembered that I needed a phone, so I took it and went toward the front door.

"Great, you're here let's go! And you're driving." I said giving him the keys.

"Where are we going?"

"Downtown of course." I said like it was the more common thing in the world. Usually, downtown was the heart of the city. The heart was where the virus started to corrupt in order to control all city.

Have the heart, have the city.
