A New Member

"Freddy what's wrong,why are you so worked up?" Scar asked.

"What does it mean,if a guy makes coffee for a lady and rubs her hair" Freddy asked.

Scar frowned.

"It means he likes her" Acid said entering the living room.

"Really?" Freddy asked surprised.

"Who made coffee for who? Scar asked.

"You don't have to worry" Freddy said and walked to his room.

"Do you think something might have happened at the boss's place?" Acid asked.

"I don't know" Scar shrugged.

Monday morning*Red room>>

"So everyone,this Layla,our new member" Scar said.

"Hello everyone,my name is Smith Layla,I hope you guys treat me well" she smiled.

"Good,to test your skills,choose a member you can duel with" Anaconda said.

Layla quickly rushed forward to Acid and held him.

"I want him" she beamed.

Anaconda nodded.

Acid looked surprised,she came to him as if she knew him before. After she chose Freddy,they all left for the training ground.

Layla and Acid stood in the middle of the training ground and positioned themselves.

Acid made the first move and threw a punch at her but Layla blocked it with her forearm using a standard technique.

Acid smirked and punched her again,this time it hit her,Layla crouched and they both circled cautiously. He kicked at Layla but she ducked it then stepped deftly in and turned to his right side. She punched out and moved 90 degrees,then she kicked him hard using a snap kick. Acid stumbled forward,he immediately grabbed her head and she gave him a front kick then spun around and caught him on the jaw bringing it closer to her face.

"Stop" Anaconda said and Layla let go of his jaw.

"Nice,get familiar with the others" she added and left the training ground with Eric.

"Ha" Layla screamed immediately Anaconda left and everyone turned to look at her.

"What happened?" Acid asked and went closer to hold her.

"You held my head too tight" she said.

Acid blinked.

"I can't even walk" she said.

"Am sorry,I must have forgotten I was fighting with a lady" he chuckled.

He immediately carried her in a bridal style and walked out of the place.

Irish eyes didn't leave them and she pressed her lips in.

"How could he carry her like that" she thought.

"Wow,I think someone is trying to woo Acid indirectly" Scar giggled and also left the training ground.

Elliot glanced at Irish and went to her.

"Let's go" he said to her.

She nodded and they both left the place,Pistol and Freddy followed.

Each of them sat in the living room except for Layla and Acid who isn't out yet.

Irish kept looking upstairs,but she didn't see any traces of him. The door bell rang and they all turned towards it,nobody was expecting anyone plus no stranger is allowed there.

Freddy stood up and went to get the door,he frowned deeply seeing the person.

"What are you doing here?" He questioned.

Davis cocked a brow,he doesn't know why but this buddy doesn't seem to like him.

"Well,Ana invited me here" he replied.

"The boss would…"

"Let him in" Eric cut him off.

Freddy gritted his teeth and made a way for him to enter.

Davis entered and smiled seeing the rest of the mobsters.

"Who's this?" Scar asked.

"I am…"

Eric immediately remembered Anaconda words.

"Don't let me say anything stupid to the mobsters" she said.

"He's the grandson of the Howlin family,they've things to settle that's why he's here" Eric cut him off.

Davis turned to Eric and immediately understood.

"I'll lead the way" Eric said.

Davis nodded and followed him.

"Gawd,he's so handsome,I love his blue eyes" Irish gushed.

Scar turned to Freddy and she saw him restless. Her mind suddenly drifted to the day Freddy asked her,what does it mean if a guy makes coffee for a lady and rubs her hair. So it must have been this guy and the boss he was referring to. Scar sighed and shook her head.

Eric took Davis to the inner part of the penthouse. There Davis saw her seated,crossed legs,she was typing something on her phone. A smile quickly spreads across his face.

Eric tapped his shoulder and left.

"Ana" he called softly.

Anaconda raised her head and rolled her eyes at him.

He chuckled and sat next to her.

"What are you doing here" she asked without raising up her head from the phone.

"I can remember you telling me to rush down here,and keep your company cos you're bored" he replied.

"I never said so" Anaconda snapped her head towards him.

"You look cute whenever you get mad" he said and touched her cheek.

"Stop it" Anaconda slapped his hands away.

Davis smiled so brightly which made it unable for her to look away,she didn't even realize that their face was close. Davis leaned closer and grazed her lips with his thumb,he bent and pecked her cheeks. Anaconda's heart started dancing dangerously in her chest.

"What was he doing to her,this feeling, what's it?" She thought.

Freddy stood there heartbroken,he wasn't expecting this at all. The place was an open space so he could see them clearly.

He dejectedly walked away.

"What was that?" She asked.

"You don't know?" Davis questioned.

Anaconda shook her head

"It's a way of appreciating and complimenting your beauty,but it's only for someone who's close to you" he replied.

Anaconda only stared at him speechlessly.

"I would be going back to Los Angeles tomorrow" Davis said.

Anaconda heart skipped a bit and she she frowned at it.

"Okay" she nodded.

"Would you love to go on a date with me,when am back?" He asked.

"What is a date" she asked.

"I can't believe you" Davis laughed.

"What's funny" she frowned.

"Nothing,don't you worry when am back,I'll explain more better to you" he said.

Anaconda rolled her eyes,she stood up and left the place,he also stood up and followed her out.

"Gawd,she's too fast I lost her" Davis muttered.

Freddy sighted Davis through the corridor and he immediately went to him.

Davis saw him and faced him.

"Stay away from my boss" he glowered.

Davis smiled and pocketed his hands.

"Why should I do that?" He asked.

"Or do you by any chance have feelings for your boss" he questioned.

Freddy snarled and left his sight.

Davis sighed and also walked away.

Acid finally came downstairs and went to sit beside Irish but she moved away from him making him frown.

"What's the matter?" He asked.

Irish hissed,she stood up and left the place.

"Layla,how're you feeling" Scar asked as she saw her coming downstairs.

"Am good,thanks to Acid" she smiled at him

Acid also smiled back at her.

"Have anyone seen Freddy" Pistol asked.

"No,why?" Scar questioned.

"Nothing it's just I haven't seen him since that guy came" Pistol said.

"Speaking about that guy,he's so manly and young at the same time and I think he's here for something else not what Eric said" Elliot spoke up.

"And what's that" Scar asked.

"I don't know" he shrugged.

Scar removed the pouch of her phone and threw it at him.

"If you don't know anything,you should just keep shut" Scar glared at him.

"But…"

"Who're you guys talking about?" Acid asked cutting him off.

"A guy came earlier to see the boss" Elliot replied.

"Really?" He asked surprised.

Elliot nodded.

"I guess,I missed him then" Acid said.

"Yeah you did,obviously you were enjoying yourself upstairs" Scar and glanced at Layla who watched them in silence.

"What do you mean,your mind is so dirty Scar. After I dropped Layla in her room,I went to my room immediately and took a shower and then I decided to relax before coming downstairs to join you guys" he explained.

Scar turned to Layla and she saw her nod.

Acid mind went to Irish and how she was angry at him,he thought about the possibilities and he sprang up to his feet and went to Irish's room.

Layla eyes followed him and she smiled.

The following day* first penthouse>>

Anaconda was in the study room when Eric came to her with a worried look.

"Did something happened?" She asked.

"It's Davis" he replied.

"What about him?" She could feel a lump on her throat but doesn't know why.

"His plane crashed" Eric said.

What!!!
