Her Only Hope

CHAPTER 21

Never would have thought that the truth can hurt and heal someone. We have all made choices in our lives that have messed the future and changed us all.

And I know my decision can either do good or bad.

No one knows and I know they will not understand why I will do it. But right now I have to do what's good for everyone.

"Come on Rose. You know I won't tell you until you let me go." His deep and tired voice said to me. His face is all beaten up and his nose is still bleeding uncontrollably. He has dry blood on his arms and legs which you can easily notice on his clothes.

"You know I won't do that." I said and sat down in front of him, "you just have to tell me where he is." He looks at me dead in the eye debating something on his mind.

"The only thing I can tell you is that he is planning to take you away." His voice was deep and his expressions changed every two seconds.

"I already know that. I just want to know when." I ask. My patience is reaching my limit just wanting to get rid of him already.

"Come on babe, you know I don't know that," he chuckles at me, "I haven't been in their meetings, meaning that I don't know anything."

Those words coming out of his mouth made me think about the past. Elijah is capable of killing anyone until he gets to me.

We both stay in silence and he just stares at me. A small smirk appears on his face making himself laugh, "You already know were he is right?" He says.

"You know everything. You just want people to believe something that isn't true."

I stare at him thinking about his words. The door opens sending shivers all over my body making my mind change the subject immediately. Lorenzo, Stephen and Ace just enter looking at Daniel all beaten up.

"Has he said anything?" Stephen sits next to me and Lorenzo stays behind Daniel looking at us and then back at him.

Ace is sitting on the table next to my knives and guns, "You beat him fucking hard." He chuckles.

"I have been here for almost two weeks and the only thing that I know is what I just told her." He says spitting blood from his mouth.

They guys look at me waiting for me to tell them what he told me.

"It's just the same thing. That Elijah wants me on his mob." I sighed. Lorenzo sits next to Stephen looking at me trying to figure out what was I thinking.

I stand up grabbing my gun and loading it, "He won't help us anymore." I said, shooting my gun to his forehead. His head down and his body lifeless.

He knew to much.

"Get Santos, Jones and Jason. We need to have a meeting." I said walking out of the room, "I will tell Damon."

-------------------

Music is blasting as I come into the big club. Everyone was dancing and some were fighting in the ring. I sit down at the bar looking at Marcus as he approaches.

"Same as always." He says pouring whiskey and sparkling water in a glass.

"Is Damon here tonight?" I ask. Marcus nods, "He is upstairs in his office."

"Thanks." I grab the glass walking upstairs towards Damon. I knock on the door hearing his deep voice say "come in".

I walked in and his expressions changed when he saw me, "I never thought you were coming today." He says taking a sip from his drink. I sit on the chair in front of Damon crossing my legs looking at him.

"You look tired." I roll my eyes knowing that it's true. I am tired. I just want to end all this shit.

"We are having a meeting tomorrow." I said, "We need to find where Elijah is staying and I already have a plan." I said.

"Would you like to tell me your big plan." He asks. I know everyone will know sooner or later, but right now they can't know.

"I will tell everyone tomorrow but I have a question for you." I said, "Do you know anyone that's part of Elijah's group?"

"I know it will sound fucked up but I guess your family; cousins, uncles, anyone." He says.

I never thought of that. Since Elijah is my father I have family working for him.

I sighed, "I am just here to tell you that whatever reason I am doing this. I have everything sorted out." I say standing up looking back at him.

I know Damon will trust me about my decisions as anyone else, but when I do it, not everyone will trust me.

This could possibly mess everything up or fix it.

-

"I need you to track this." I hand Ace Daniel's phone, "This will tell us where Elijah is."

Everyone is sitting in my brother's big office. "We are attacking him sooner or later and we have to get everyone ready."

Ace tracks the phone with his computer telling us where his location is.

I knew we were going to know his place easily but I needed time to think, "Get your best man and get them ready to attack tomorrow night."

"My man can kill the security guys while the others enter his territory." Jones says, standing up ready to leave, "tomorrow at 11 o'clock, nighttime." He says leaving the office.

"Same here. Tomorrow In the morning we will send you weapons as needed." Santos mentioned standing up ready to leave.

Jason and the guys are sitting down looking at me. "Damon we have to get your best fighters." I say. I have fought some of his men and they are pretty good.

He nods walking out leaving only the guys and me in the room.

"You have to trust me on this one." I say to them. Silence fills the room and my eyes go towards him. His grey eyes looked at me intensely.

He stands up walking out. Ace, Stephen and Lorenzo stand up following him as well, leaving me in the room completely alone.

I know everyone was surprised by attacking tomorrow right away. But we have to go sooner or later.

I walk to my room, Jason sitting down on my bed.

I kneeled in front of him.

His eyes look at mine.

"Tell me." Jason says. I look at him with confusion.

He knows.

"I can't. But please trust me." I say. Telling someone will ruin everything. It needs to look real and they have to believe me on this one.

I stand up grabbing his arm making him stand up. I grab his neck pulling him towards me kissing his lips passionately. His hands go around my waist making my legs go around his waist. He walks over to bed making him lay down, me on top of him.

"Whatever happens tomorrow, remember that I love you." I say softly, making his eyes question my words.

I look at him with a small smile, "I love you," he says kissing me back roughly going towards my neck.

I know tomorrow will be tough, but no one will die.

People will stop trusting and others will question what I am doing.

But I know this will work.

It has too.
