Sasha's pov
For 4 days I kept working and arranging things with my teams half of the time on the club half on the party.

We were ready with the party planning, tomorrow the catering team will be coming, that includes 60 waiters, 15 chefs and 30 helpers.

Yeah, I know, for 250 people that's a lot but we all know that these kind of parties must be impeccable.

The building where my firm was situated had a "speech room" how we call it, of a space to have conferences. It could easily keep 250 people with tables and a bar, so we decided to have the party there.

My team changed the place from white, gray and green, to gold and black. The place looked magnificent, chandeliers, black drapes, golden ribbons, white chairs with black and gold ribbons, it was really classy they even managed to create a dance floor.

Marius took care of the security part, as I instructed. The invitations sent and received. Everything was ready.

The club looked good too, with a blue ceiling and green floor, the strip poles were down and a big scene was placed with red velvet drapes and black doors.

There were swings attached to the ceiling, and the tables were rearranged in an U in front of the scene. The bar stood in the back as it was full of mirrors and black, it had a nice feeling.

I was worried by one thing, the Chinese leader. I got no word from him. Nothing...our little lamb was sent away, so he was useless. I was impressed by the goodness of their boss, but I knew it was only a trap, he knew I was listening.

We'll see what he's got in his sleeve. For the moment, things were quiet, I needed that for a couple of days more.

I decided to pay the Chinese boss a visit after the party and the club are done. He knew that a move these days could get him in trouble more than it should. The police analyzed the call and it came from his neighborhood, they don't know where exactly, but Jack keeps an eye on things.

He's been focused on his mission lately and I do love a good guard dog.

After finishing with the last details for the day I went home, my chef cooked some Indian food and left. I was alone in the apartment reading some papers when I heard a single click coming from the balcony windows.

Shit! Is it Hawk again? I took the gun out of my desk, if it's him again I will shoot him in the leg, fuck this, who does he think he is.

I took careful steps to the living room, silence. There was pure nothingness, but my instincts knew someone was in there.

Then all of a sudden a knife came at me, I dodged to the floor and lounged to my attacker, I shot at his head but he dodged behind the kitchen wall.

Shit, my beeper was on the opposite wall I was staying, if I go for it he could kill me. I didn't see his face, he had a black mask on, black pants and black blouse, there was nothing I could identify him.

I took a leap behind the living room table, crashing it down to cover me shooting at my attacher, 4 knives enter the table, almost scratching my face.

There was something familiar with these knifes. Black with red... Where did I see these kind of blades?

I had two more bullets, the other gun is 5 meters away in the sofa. C'mon Sasha...I shot the sensors and the alarm started to ring. Good, this will alert Marius.

One bullet, I heard the guy change his position near the exit of the wall,  he will soon come for me.

In one swift motion the guy threw another knife at me, I rolled on the floor but the knife cut my abdomen lightly.

After he saw it hit me, he threw himself at me with a katana, the same colors as the knifes, during that period I dodged and retrieved the gun from the sofa, throwing myself behind it and shot two fires at him.

One pierced his shoulder and one scratched his face cutting the black material.

I took a last look at the katana. It couldn't be him...could he? Sun?

"Well my dear Sasha, we meet again." I heard him say while he took his mask off. His other hand on the bleeding shoulder.

I raised to my feet, the gun still pointed at him, one move and I will have to shoot him again.

"Sun? Is...why? Why are you doing this?" I knew I recognized those weapons.

"I wanted to see if you still have it. I heard you got soft." He threw his sword on the floor, and smiled.

My door blew up and Marius entered with 4 guys behind him, they almost crushed Sun. " Stop. He's with us!" I ran to cover him from Marius.

"Yeah, I'm with you!" He laughed.

Marius looked around, my living room and kitchen was destroyed, I was almost naked, with half of my silk robe full of blood.

He nodded and signaled for the other guys to step out. They lowered the guns and got out.

"Is there a doctor around here?" Sun waved his other hand.

Shit, we had to take him to Xavier. Marius left to get the car ready, I took a blanket and covered him.

When we got in the car I cut my silk robe and covered his bleeding arm.

"Damn girl, looking good!" Oh I forgot...

"You still have a sense of humor after I shot you huh?" I chuckled.

"Fuck yeah! So listen, We have to talk. There is a big ransom on your head pretty lady." He looked at me with those big black eyes of his. He looked the same. Nothing changed. Black eyes, black hair cut short, a bit of beard. Such a handsome devil he was.

He cupped my face "You know, we are all cheering for you baby girl. I took the job to protect you, they are hunting your fine ass, the Chinese mafia will soon start a war, you need us by your side."  He left a trail of blood on my chin.

"I knew this will happen, they think I'm weak." The thought infuriated me.

"We all know that you are not. North will be arriving soon." He smiled and looked out the window.

I knew we didn't have much time, he will soon pass out. In a couple of seconds we'll reach Xavier. He's going to live, I smiled "The gang is back huh?"

He shifted his head to me"Always baby." And passed out.

We reached the destination and let Xavier to take care of him.

Marius was standing on the floor, I was sprawled on a chair in the lab. My wound was not bleeding anymore, I disinfected it and covered it with a bandage.

"I almost lost you today." He had his eyes closed.

"Marius...I will never.." he didn't let me finish," Die? Yeah that what your father said..."

I gulped, he knew..."How long have you.."

A smirk appeared on his face "Do you think I'm stupid like the others, you are just like him. You rule different, but...you are just like him."

He got up and took his t-shirt off dressing me with it." I swear I will protect you, but we need a plan. And we need to reinforce that apartment."

I looked at him with admiration from that moment, who would have thought?
