Chapter 11

Comprises

3rd Pov. Amalla

Amalla sat up from the rocking of the boathouse. She glanced back at her clock, and scrunched her eyebrows.

'Brian and Rome would not be up by now.'

Amalla stood up and opened the end table drawer. Her hand closing on a throwing knife. She pulled her hand back, and walked towards the sliding doors attaching their rooms.

She grabbed the handle slowly, and pulled back quickly.

Her eyes landed on Brian and Monica, sitting on his head. They glanced back her, and Brian spoke.

"Amalla I-" He went to say, but Amalla turned away and the curtain to the door fell back into place to separate them.

Amalla quickly dressed, she pulled down her blue top. She braided her hair, and tossed it behind.

She sat quietly on her bed, as she tied her boots. Quick movement took her attention, as she stood. A shadow cascaded in through the window, of a person with a gun.

Amalla grabbed her knife, and exited her end of the boathouse. She heard Rome yelling, as Brian's voice joined in.

"Put the gun down! Put the gun down now!" Brian yelled, and Amalla climbed to the top of her boathouse. She couched lowly and walked towards Brian's end.

She saw Verone's two henchman, and sighed. She jumped down and took Rome's guard behind him.

Rome jumped away, and Amalla moved him into a headlock. The man struggled as Amalla tightened his grip.

"Let him go! Or I swear I will kill him!" The second guard said, and Amalla pulled a gun from her waistband.

She raised it to point at the second guard.

"Go ahead. I can tell you, I'm a better shot. Put it down. Save both of your lives." Amalla tigthtend her grip and the guard's head turned a bright red.

The second guard slowly stopped pointing the gun, and Amalla threw the guard away.

Brian stared at Amalla with an unreadable expression, but she could feel disappointment oozing from him.

"Well, well. It seems like I should hire new help." Verona said as he slowly walked up.

"To ensure that you deliver and for collateral, Enrique and Roberto will be joining you. For extra effect she will be staying with me."

"I'll see you in a bit." He said, and the guards walked away, and him giving Amalla a last glance.

Brian stormed quickly up to her.
"Why did you do that?"

"Because I'm tired of being run over. I know you're trying to protect me, and I respect that. But, its too late to do that. I'm tired of hurting, Brian." She said, and walked towards her supra. Brian and Rome exchanged looks as she sped away.
