XENIA'S POV:

"Angelina, take Anna and hide into the secret room. Go." I shouted.

"I am not leaving you alone out here." she cried.

"Then do you want Anna dead?" I asked.

She flinched at my tone and nodded her head "Fast." I said.

I know she can fight but nothing can prepare her for this. She and Anna needs to be safe.

I checked my gun and it was loaded fully. Taking a deep breath, I went inside the house and spotted Nick and Paul.

"Where is Xander?" I asked them.

"He is at the front." Paul answered.

"Alright, I am going to the garage to get some more weapons." I said and sprinted towards it.

While I was taking up daggers and guns, a sound of feet hitting on the floor made my heart thud faster but I continued what I was doing, my hands working faster now.

It stopped after a minute and I turned around quietly running my eyes across the entire storage room. Sighing in relief, I turned around and a scream escaped my lips.

A man was standing right on the other side aiming his gun at me. Where did he come from?

"Drop your weapons." he warned.

"In your dreams." I snarled at him and lunged forward.

His body hit the floor with a loud thud and I kicked him in the ribs. He took a hold of my foot and pulled it causing me to fall.

I groaned as my head hit the concrete but by that time he was above me trying to choke me. I clawed at his hands and took out a dagger from the front pocket of my jeans jabbing it in the center of his eyes. His blood sprayed on my face a little before I attempted to move.

After pushing him off me, I stood up and wiped my face with the sleeve of my shirt.

Stuffing another gun on the other side of my jeans, I made my way towards the door but stepped back inside as I saw three bulky men approaching. They looked Russian from the amount of tattoos, piercing and redness on faces. (A/N: no offence to the Russians.)

I hid behind the door and held my breath. It was one against three. They came inside the storage and started cursing in Russian as soon as they found their fellow member dead.

I dared to look from behind the door and two of their backs were turned towards me whereas one was facing me. His eyes widened when he saw me but before he could react, I shot him in the head and shot the other two on their legs.

They instantly fell but one of them took the safety off his gun and shot at me. He missed. So I took the liberty to show him how to shoot correctly and hit him right on his heart.

"That is how it is done." I huffed and aimed at the other guy who looked like he would piss his pants any moment now.

"Pl-please don't." he begged.

The arm behind his back was desperately trying to clutch his gun which was stuck in his waistband but I caught this movement.

"Tut. Tut. Do not try to outsmart me." I said and shot him twice in the chest.

I quietly make my way outside, my breathing ragged as I carefully trudge towards the door I came from.

As soon as I was about to turn the knob, there were thudding of multiple boots coming from the opening gate of the garage.
