Vengeance

[7]

Michael

"I need you to trace this shit. Do whatever means necessary." I yelled. I barked orders left and right after finding out about those pictures. Kenny put his hand on my woman and thinks he'll get away with this. I'm tired of these fucking games. I'm going to the source right now. Joseph tried to stop me multiple times but I ignored him. He wanted me to show up in front of Winston so many times now he's stopping me?

"It's not time yet Michael." Joseph said as I started packing my guns on my hip.

"I can't let another day go by knowing that bastard is abusing Kirsten. I'm tired of waiting and waiting. I need to do something." I said. "We've planned enough!"

"Michael! Listen to me for once! If we go to Winston now, he won't give us any answers. He'll die before he give up any info on Kenny."

"You really think so?" I chuckled as I placed a blade in my sock. "You think if I torture him enough, he still wouldn't give me what I'm looking for?"

"We need a little more time—"

"Boss! We got her." Someone said behind me. I turned around to see two of my men holding Denise by the arms, which were tied behind her back.

"Good. Throw her in the trunk." I told them.

"Michael please!" She screamed as they dragged her away. If she would of been truthful in the beginning, she wouldn't be in this mess.

"I have a long ride. Are you coming or not?" I said without looking at him.

"I'm coming."

After loading up my car, Joseph and I got in. I had my men follow behind me as we drove to Winston's place. I knew exactly what time he'll be home and I knew when his wife gets off from work as well. I still had that spare key on me so I could get in whenever I wanted.

"What did you plan on doing once you got there? You never told me." He asks, breaking the silence.

"By the time we get there, his wife and children should be home and waiting on him to show." I started as I shrugged. "I'll just hold them hostage and wait for him to come home. When he does, he'll already have six guns pointed at his head when he walk through the door."

"You're really serious about this girl Michael?"

"Yeah, I wanna marry her." I told him and the rest of the car ride fell silent, but mostly because Joseph fell asleep on the way.

Once we arrived at Winston's house, it was already pitch black outside. I could see the lights on through the house as we passed it to park the car somewhere else. After getting out the car, I told everyone to wait until I got inside.

Of course Winston had both back door and front door with spare keys. I found the back door key easily. It was under the plant pot. I unlocked the door and slowly opened it, seeing the kitchen clear. I closed the door silently then went upstairs. I saw the kid's room door open and seen them already in bed sleep.

I walked passed their room and went to his room and saw no one inside but I did hear the shower going in the bathroom that was connected to the room. I sat on the bed and made myself comfortable.

Not even ten minutes pass when I hear the shower turn off. I stood up from the bed and soon she came out the bathroom. She shrieked when she saw me and tried to run back inside the bathroom but I quickly caught her and dragged her to the middle of the room. She started to scream but I placed a hand over her mouth and bent down to her level as I tried to grab the duck tape out of my jacket pocket.

Before I could successfully get it out, she bit me! I smacked her back down before she could fully get up and she cried out in pain. I opened the tape and grabbed her arm and twisted it behind her back and did the same for the other.

"Why are you doing this?" She cried. I went towards the window and signaled for Joseph and the others to come in. The did as told and I could hear them coming downstairs.

"I won't hurt you at all sweetheart." I started as I helped her onto the bed. "But only if Winston comply. If not then—" I stopped as I showed her the gun on my hip.

"Now, you stay here and be a good girl while we wait for Winston to come home." I told her.

"Please don't hurt my kids! Take me instead!" She pleaded. Instead of replying, I taped her mouth shut then walked out the door and headed downstairs. There, Joseph and everyone else was posted by the front door with Denise sitting on her knees in front of Joseph.

"I want her upstairs with the wife." I told one of the men and he nods then snatches Denise off the floor and drag her upstairs. Her muffled screams against the tape over her mouth was barely heard.

"That didn't take long." Joseph said as he handed me some matches.

"I don't think we'll need these." I told him as I placed the matches back into his hands. "She didn't put up much of a fight anyway." I shrugged then walked towards the wall and flicked the lights off.

We waited for a good twenty minutes before we heard a car outside. I peaked out the window a little and saw the car lights turn off and Winston getting out of the car. I moved away from the window and waited for him to unlock the door. Once he did, everyone cocked their guns as he opened the door.

"Surprise bitch."

Kirsten

"Do you think I could possibly leave this room today?" I said as Kenny opens the door. "Or at least see my sister."

"I'm not stupid. You'll just try to run." He says.

"No I won't, I love you too much." I lie. If I could remember correctly, there was a patio door in the living room. My plan won't work unless I know where Raven is exactly.

"You really love me?" He asks. "Not Michael?"

"No, I love you only." I told him as I slowly stood off the bed.

"Alright, I guess I could let you enjoy the rest of the house now." He says as he turns to leave. I shook my head at his stupidity. I slowly follow him out the room, the pain in my side slowly me down a bit.

"Where's Raven?" I asked as he lead me down the hall and into the living room.

"Oh! I had a nanny here taking care of her twenty four hours, every day of the week." He says. He shows me to a door and opens it. I peer inside and see a woman feeding Raven whose sitting in a high chair. I wanted to so badly run to the woman and ask for her help but I knew Kenny would hurt her as well if I did. Unless she knows and wouldn't be on my side anyway.

The lady looks up and her eyes widen when she sees me. Kenny closes the door and I give him a saddening look. He doesn't even acknowledge me. He grabs my forearm harshly then pulls me down the hall.

"That's enough looking for today."
