Dark Night Dark Light

Chapter 36

I walk out of the front door of the house. I do not see Risto's car anywhere. I begin to wonder if Aaron finally got some sense in him and decided to call this whole thing off. I sit on the curb and wait for a little while. I do not want to run the risk of Risto coming and I miss him. 

I hope that Ville does not wake up before I leave because I know that he will just try to stop me and that is something that I know can't happen. I am soon surrounded by the headlights of Risto's car. I rise to my feet and get into the car.

"Are you sure that you want to do this," Risto asks.

I nod my head, "I have to do this or I am putting everyone at risk. That is something that I refuse to live with. Did you call Bam and Missy?"

"Yes, I did. Bam said that he will have some guys at the location. Ready to follow you once the drop off is made," Risto assures me.

Risto drives along the ghostly streets. He drives us to a supermarket parking lot. We pull in and see that Aaron is already there. I look around and do not see any other cars in the parking lot. Bam sure has them hidden for this mission and they are damn good at their job. 

"What ever happens, Risto. Make sure that Ville is taken care of. But I expect things to go as planned. Also just drop me off and what ever happens then you have to turn away. Aaron is like a loose cannon and I never know what he is going to do," I try to warn him.

Risto nods silently as a tear falls from his eye. He pulls up to Aaron's car and stops his car. I give Risto a hug. Tears flood my eyes and I don't want to let go. I have gotten use to all the great and wonderful people that I have met after being with Ville. 

I take a deep breath in and let go of Risto. I open the car door and get out of the car. Aaron gets out of his low grade car that is probably stolen. He walks right in front of me with a devilish smile on his face.

"So here you are. I knew that you would be coming back to me," Aaron gloats.

"Shove it up your ass," I swiftly reply.

Aaron backs his hand up and strikes it across my face. My cheek feels hot to the touch after he makes contact with it. I turn back to him and spit in his face. I am no longer going to take his abuse without fighting back. Aaron wipes away the spit from his cheek and punches me in the gut. I fall to my knees. My knees cry in agony as they make contact with the pavement. 

I hear a car door open and shut, "You need to leave her alone. She came back to you. Is that not what you wanted," Risto's voice rings through the air. 

"You need to shut your fucking mouth before I beat you like I did last time. Did I not send you to the hospital once? I would think that you would not want to go to the hospital again," Aaron yells out his warning.

"You fucking drugged me. If you want to go right now while I am good again I swear to you that I will knock your ass to the ground," Risto screams out.

"Risto, just walk away," I try to tell him.

"Yeah, why don't you do what this bitch told you to do," Aaron warns.

"Fuck off, all you are is a little bitch that likes to beat women. Beating on women does not make you a man at all. Just a punk ass little bitch," Risto tells Aaron.

Aaron walks over to Risto and bends his fist back to punch him in the face. Risto lifts his arm up to block Aaron's punch. Risto bends his arm back and punches Aaron in the side. Aaron cries in pain from the punch. Risto backs up and forms his body into a boxing stance. 

It feels like my heart stops as I fear Risto's safety, but my eyes can't look away from the elegant way he fights. Like he is just delivering Aaron nothing more than what Aaron would deliver to him at the moment. I have seen Ville fight Aaron before and it was more like in a brawl type form, while Risto is more precise and calculated.
