Chapter 12: Your end is near
Carter's POV
Looking through the closet I was busy searching for a shirt to put on when out of nowhere I heard a high pitched scream from downstairs. My heart stop beating for a few seconds as one name swirled through my mind making my muscles tense. Isabella. Dropping the blue shirt that was clutched in my hands I ran through the door and down the stairs at full speed.
Feeling my heart rate increase I ran to the kitchen to see her leaning back on the counter as her chest rose and fell at an unsteady rhythm.
Immediately I was by her side trying to calm her down but she was so scared it was like my voice was muted to her. Each question I asked she gave no reply and only had her stare stuck at one specific spot.
Following her gaze I turned my head and immediately my eyes stopped at a particular spot on the window. YOUR END IS NEAR,the words read and that's when my eyes then dropped to the pool of red liquid on the counter.
Inhaling a couple times my whole body stiffened as I found out that,that red liquid wasn't just any liquid.. It was blood.
"Shhh,its okay" I soothed pulling her close to me in a tight hug feeling her sniffle into my chest. "I'm right here its gonna be fine"
Lifting up her fragile body I walked back up the stairs and to the bedroom gently laying her down on the bed."I'm gonna make a call, okay"I told her as she slowly nodded her head.
I took out my phone and dialled the number. After a couple of minutes I hung up the phone and turned around to walk back to the bed. My body almost shut down when I saw her eyes closed and she wasn't moving. Hurriedly walking back over to her I soon calmed down as I saw she was only sleeping. I laid beside her pulling her close to me as she laid her head on my chest.
Isabella's POV
My whole body feels like it was hit by a piece of iron crippling me to the bone so I couldn't move. I just can't seem to get the picture out my head, and who the hell's blood was that? I have no idea but all I do know is that it almost scared the life out of me.
Slowly I opened my eyes trying to adjust to the light that overwhelmed the room. I swung my feet to the side of the bed and stood up feeling my head begin to pound.
I placed my hand over my forehead to somehow ease the pain while trying to stay balanced so I wouldn't fall due to the dizziness I was feeling.
After getting myself together I decided to head downstairs where everyone else was. Walking to the door I could hear the faint whispers of persons talking, walking closer to the door the voices got clearer and I could now make out what they we're saying.
"But what if she does get to her. Even worse now they know where you guys live" I heard an unfamiliar voice
"I won't let that happen"I heard another all to familiar voice which only belongs to one person. Carter.
"You don't know what can happen,do you actually know how big this girl is. She could have done whatever she wanted to both of you long ago but she's playing with you,both of you" the person who I have yet to know spoke again as I leaned my ear against the door trying to hear more of the conversation.
"All I'm saying is,watch your back,she can be anywhere at anytime" the person said again before everything went quiet.
I waited a few more seconds before I turned the knob and pushed the door open and walked out.
In the hallway carter stood there with a man that looked a few years older than him. The guy was wearing a full black suit with a briefcase in his hand while a pair of dark shades covered his eyes.
They both turned to me as I walked up to them instantly locking eyes with carter "what's going on?" I asked standing in front both of them as they both stared at me. No one gave a reply before I heard the guy clear his throat and stretched his hand out to me.
"I'm Omar, I don't think we've met before"he said as I shook his giant hand with my small one. This guy doesn't seem right,like theirs something about him but I can't quite put my finger on it.
"No I don't think we have" I answers his earlier statement while giving carter the eye that said he had some explaining to do.
"Well let me introduce myself" he paused"I am Omar Leighton a worker of your.. Boyfriend and the person put in charge of the second largest part of the Airos gang which is located in Canada" he said removing his shades to reveal his dark grey eyes. Those eyes, its like I'm staring deep into a dark endless tunnel making an awful shiver run down my spine. He stared at me as I stared back at him with the same serious expression.
My gaze shifted to carter who was standing next to him watching our stare down intently"carter" I called seeing him look over at me"can I talk to you for a second"
"Sure"he answered as we walked back into the room closing the door.
"What is he doing here?"I whisper yelled crossing my arms over my chest.
"We're just talking"he answered.
"About?"
"What happened earlier"
"And what does he gave to do with that?" I asked dragging my eyebrows together
"He's just helping us figure out who's blood that was and help see if we can find out where Jane and jessica are in case they're anywhere near here"he answered pulling me close to him trying to calm me down.
"Well get him out cause I don't like him"
"Bella you hardly know the guy"he sighed
"I don't know what it is but there's something about him and its not something good" I argued seeing him getting frustrated
"Bella the guy has been working for me for almost six years if there was something about him don't you think I would have figured it out by now"
I opened my mouth to say something but kept my mouth shut."well then fine" I huffed"do whatever you want but not with him in here" I finalized.
"Then where are we going to go?"
"I don't care just get.him.out." I demanded
"Fine I'll cancel today's meeting and we'll talk somewhere else tomorrow. Better?"
"Much" I answered pleased by his discission. We both walked back outside where the guy, Omar never moved from the spot where we left him. I stood at the door as carter walked up to him and they began to talk.
Soon they were walking back up to where I was, they passed as carter was leading him to the door but as they passed Omar gave me a look sending unpleasant tingles throughout my body Before he quickly averting his gaze back in front of him and walked down the stairs with carter.
I stood frozen on spot trying to figure out what that look meant. But just as everything else in my life is,it was all just plain confusing. But there's one thing I have straight and I can bet anything on it, that guy has a secret a very dark secret that he was smart enough to hide from carter but he will never fool me. I will find out what he's hiding whether carter allows me or not.
Hey guys I know I've been away for a while but its because schools putting a huge burden on my shoulders and my free time is decreasing by the day so updates will be slow. Sorry.
