"Grandpa,you signed those papers without even checking it, what if she played a trick on you" Ace said.
"Well,I wouldn't mind,your brother seems to like her and she is fascinating and flawless"Grandpa Howlin beamed.
"You seem to be talking about yourself not my brother" Ace rolled his eyes.
"Am not,you and I know Davis has never stared at a woman like that before it's surprising,who knows maybe she's his mate"Grandpa said.
"Oh I didn't think of that" Ace touched his lips fondly.
I do hope she is,cos I keep wondering why it's taking so long for the goddess to bless him with his mate" Grandpa sighed.
"I will talk to him later" Ace said and rubbed his Grandpa shoulder.
>>>
"Do you perhaps know that young man,he was staring so keenly at you" Eric asked.
"I don't have any business with him" she replied uninterested.
The night before>>>
"Elliot,Acid,both of you will stay out here,while I,Scar and Pistol will nestle our way in" Freddy hushed as they walked in a secret passageway.
"But…"
"No but Elliot,listen to the leader" Pistol cut him.
Elliot groaned, it was obvious he doesn't like the idea but what can he do.
The three went in,ignoring him.
"Oh sh*t, I didn't know the Briggs got so many squads for this operation,am sure they must have guessed that boss will try to stop them" Scar cursed as they eye the men in the boat.
"I will distract them,then you two do the needful" Freddy said.
"What!! You can't go in there like that,what if they harm you" Pistol whined.
"They wouldn't,and if they do,I don't mind as long as this operation is successfully" he said.
"Do you have to let your feelings get in the way every time,you want to die for someone that doesn't even care about" Pistol snapped.
Freddy turned to her.
"If you don't shut up now I might do something crazy,also never speak about the boss that way again or you see the other side of me" Freddy hissed and walked towards the boat.
Pistol pressed her lips in,she was worried about him,the Briggs squad might do something funny and she doesn't want it to be him.
"If you're just going to keep staring at him,you might as well join him" Scar said and walked away to the back of the boat.
Pistol glanced at Freddy one more time before walking away.
"Hey" Freddy shouted.
All the squads turn to him and their eyes widened cos the passageway was supposed to be a secret. But how come this person is here?
"Umm,I don't know how I got here,I think I lost my way" Freddy said.
"You're so dead,nobody walks in here and get out alive" one of them spoke up.
"But,I only lost my way… what do you mean?" He asked feigning to be shocked.
"That's so unfortunate,there's nothing to be done,you're getting killed" the one who spoke up earlier said and brought out a gun pointing it at Freddy's head.
At the far end of the boat,Scar signaled to Freddy that they were done.
"Ohh,really" Freddy smirked.
Outside>>
"F*ck I can see a car coming,why are they taking so long" Acid said and brought out his phone to put a call through Scar.
The ringing of a phone disrupted the whole place and they all quickly turned towards the sound alarming the squads.Cos nobody was allowed to take in a phone along with them except for the leader who wasn't in at the moment,so who got the phone?
Freddy saw that they were distracted and he quickly brought out his gun and shot the arm of the guy that pointed a gun at him making the gun drop from his hand.
"Run" Freddy shouted and the three started to run.
The squads immediately started shooting at them but none of it,hit any of them.
"Throw me the remote and you two get out" Freddy said as they got a little bit close.
What!! Pistol panicked.
"F*cking throw it" he shouted.
Scar threw it at him and immediately he caught he signaled for them to leave.
Pistol hesitated.
"Trust him" Scar reassured her and she reluctantly ran out with Scar.
"Should I blow this place or you stop shooting" Freddy suddenly said and the squads stop shooting,a bomb has been planted here.They all freaked out.
"Even if you shoot me,I'll still press the button and every single person here will blow along with me" he added.
Slowly, he started walking using his back until he got to the entrance,as he got there,he dropped the remote and immediately turn his back to run out but one of them shot him at the back.
"F*ck" he groaned in pains. He managed to drag himself to the others.
The car already got to where they stood and a strong built man came out from it.
"Who are you…" he wasn't able to finish his statement as he dropped dead,he seems to be their leader,Pistol shot him on the forehead.
"Scar,now" Freddy said weakly.
"Freddy" Pistol screamed and immediately went to him,his back was covered in blood.
Scar quickly brought out the real remote and pressed the button,blowing the boat together with the goods and squads.Earlier,Scar and Freddy had it all planned before they left for the mission.
They pulled Freddy to the car and immediately drove away.
Back to the present>>
Anaconda was already back to the country and they are all in the Red room.
"The mission was successful boss" Scar reported.
Anaconda nodded.
"That old man would have gotten the news,I can imagine his rage, I should be expecting his retaliation soon" she smirked.
"You all can go" she dismissed them.
"One of your men got shot" Pistol suddenly said and all eyes turned to her.
"Hm,am sure he's fine" she shrugged.
"Aren't you…"
"We will leave now boss" Scar immediately cut her off and dragged her outside and the others followed.
"Go check on him" Anaconda said.
He nodded and she left the Red room.
"What do you think you were about to do there?" Scar questioned.
"Seriously?…one of us is lying down there unconscious. What would take her to check on him and see if he is fine after she noticed his absence,she still kept quiet about it" Pistol snapped.
"You're a big idiot,if Freddy finds out you were questioning the boss,what do you think he'd do to you huh,Freddy doesn't give a f*ck about your feelings. If I hadn't saved your @ss back there,your head would have been blown off by now" Scar reprimanded her and walked out in fury.
"Guys…" Elliot wasn't able to finish his statement as Pistol also stormed away tears brimming in her eyes the words Scar said about Freddy not giving a f*ck about her feelings really hit her bad.
"Pistol,her feelings for Freddy is getting out of hand only Freddy can take care of the issue.You guys might not have seen it,but when we entered the Red room earlier,boss eyes asked for Freddy and flashed in worry,I was just chanced to see it cos it immediately disappeared as it came" Acid revealed.
"Really?"Elliot and Irish said at the same time surprised.
"Yes,she just didn't express it" he sighed.
"I just hope Freddy will be fine,that's my concern. Let's go check on him" Irish said and they stood and went to his room.
The next day>>
Freddy was now conscious and a little bit well,a bandaged was wrapped around his back.
"Eat more Freddy" Pistol urged him"
"Am good now" he said.
"You can leave,thank you" he added with a smile.
Pistol smiled back at him and went out.
Shortly after,Scar came in.
"Hey" she sat beside him.
"Hey" he greeted back.
"How're you feeling now" she asked concerned.
"Am good now thanks to you guys,as you can see" he stood up energetically.
"Yes I can see,sit down back the wound is still healing don't stress it" she cautioned.
Freddy smiled and sat down back.
"I need to discuss something with you" she added getting serious.
"I can guess what you want to say" he said.
"She's getting out of hand and am getting irritated, I don't want whereby she do or say something to annoy the boss,you of all people should know it won't end well" she said.
"I'll talk to her don't worry" he assured.
"Good,pls tell her to keep her feelings in check" Scar added.
He nodded.
"I'll take my leave now,take good care of yourself leader" she smiled at him and went out.
Anaconda's first penthouse>>
"Godmother" Ashley suddenly called.
Anaconda paused,she was about to go upstairs.
She turned to look at Ashley with a raised eyebrow.
"Don't be surprised, I want to call you that. You're taking care of me,so it's only right if I call you that" she smiled brightly at Anaconda, her big round eyes shining.
"Ok" she nodded.
"Um,can we watch a movie together" she asked hoping Anaconda won't turn her down again.
"No,am not interested" she replied.
"Have preys to hunt?" she asked pouting.
"You got that right" Anaconda winked and immediately went upstairs.
Ashley sighed.
A while later.
"Hey,Ashley" Irish called as she entered the penthouse.
"Irish" she stood up surprised.
"Boss called me and told me to come keep a boring child company" she smirked.
"Am not boring" Ashley mumbled.
"Yes you're my love,anyways let's go watch a horror movie with a popcorn and a juice to follow" Irish chirped.
"Am not watching that with you" Ashley attested.
"Your opinion is not needed" she winked and went for the remote.
"You were sent here to keep me company,but you're here doing something else,how can you make a child watch a horror movie" she said and immediately snatched the remote with her little hands but Irish grabbed it back and that's how they started fighting for the remote.
Anaconda came downstairs dressed in a black coat and met this scene,she stood and watched them for a while. She almost smiled but only shook her head and went out.
She drove out to the outskirts of the city as usual but a car suddenly crossed blocking her car from moving.
She smirked and came down from the car,she went towards the other car and knocked on the window.
The person in the car wined down the glass and a look a surprise flashed across her face.
