THIRD PERSON P.O.V.
Her mother stood at door and watched everyone in the room with wide eyes.
’This has to be a scam or a scheme in process’ she thought to herself when she met with the faces in the room.
Definitely whom she least expected. All of them.
“You can come in, you’re safe I promise you” Mr. Reid says as he stands to his feet to allow her see him fully.
“Why didn’t you indicate the people we’re getting to meet are the McConnell’s?” Mr. Shawn, Iris’s dad asked after seeing Mr. Reid act calm in the same situation his wife is finding extremely disturbing.
“I figured if I mentioned it that you guys wouldn’t want to get involved” Mr. Reid explained.
“We had already mentioned that we didn’t want to get involved with this family, you promised us Iris and my granddaughter… not a jamboree with

Third person p.o.v.Iris sat in the back seat of the car in fresh new clothes and a slightly wet hair.She had managed to have her bath some minutes ago and now they were preparing to leave.While Hunter and a few of the others were having some discussions not so far from the vehicle, she sat completely quiet and zoned out of earth.Her thoughts, very far away that from her face she looked like someone who was lost from reality.What she had heard earlier still gave her cold feet, it felt like as each second passed the reality of realities dawned on her and all that kept pounding at the back of her mind was Louisa’s health.She knew Louisa as still recovering from anemia and blood is being drawn from her?Iris had never in her life thought that she could ever come across someone so wicked in her entire lifetime… and she had met Hunter.That little girl never did anything to those cruel men, not even to swa

Third person p.o.v.They had been driving for some hours now, only hitting a stop to refill their gas tank with the extra gallon of fuel that Soldo always demanded be left at the back seat of every vehicle ever used on a mission.Jeanie and Santiago had swapped positions an hour ago so he could take a nap because he was exhausted.Everyone else in the car were fast asleep and Jeanie was the only one wide awake, she had taken a brief nap at some point.The radio stations were shuffling between songs and there weren’t really any news headlines during the wee hours, so she had to stick with random mix of songs including those she knew well enough and those she was hearing for the first time.The day was getting brighter quite slowly and she believed the time was between five to six am. She didn’t go around with a wristwatch so she wasn’t so sure of the time but she was certain her guess was right, it was part of their traini

Third person p.o.v.She was directed towards a jeep with masked men guiding herOr making sure she doesn’t run away, she wasn’t quite sure what their aim of surrounding her was but she was well aware they didn’t want her leaving their sight.The windows of the vehicle were tinted to the point that its exterior made perfect mirrors if anyone ever needed one out of home.And that made her to worry because no one would be able to see her if she was being stabbed in the vehicle.“I’m not getting in there if that’s what you’re thinking” she rattled and refused to move further.“He won’t harm you if that’s what you’re worried about” one of the tens of men around her said and the silence that followed seemed like it was undebatedBut it wasn’t enough reason for her to believe them.“Why should I trust you?” she asked and looked at

Third person p.o.vThe two of them hadn’t said a word throughout the entire flight to each other but it didn’t seem like they wanted to either.It was a brief flight actually, shorter than Iris had expected it to be. She had planned for at least seven hours in the air but eventually in an hour one of the men had come to notify Hunter that they would soon be landing.She wasn’t complaining, if anything she was grateful for the duration.She didn’t know how she would have contained her fumes towards Hunter if the ride took much longer.The moment the aircraft touched the hangar and the doors were opened; Iris was the first to get off the plane. Every other person who had been on the flight exchanged looks between themselves and Hunter who had a crestfallen appearance.“Mr. McConnell, the jet would be returned back as soon as possible based off Mr. Reid’s orders” said the pilot

Hunter’s p.o.v.I looked at the paper which Claire dropped at the front seat to picture the map once again.I was supposed to look out for a street namedcottois, that’s where I’ll take my next turn.Driving through the market was a bit satisfying as the noisy environment was a little therapeutic to my mental health.It was obvious that Iris didn’t want to talk to me and I wasn’t going to force neither would I blame her. After her outburst earlier, I discovered that she had every reason to be angry at me.Everyone involved in this had every reason to be pissed at my being.But it only took an outburst for me to realize.Lol… I really do deserve an award for the way I effortlessly mess up people’s lives.Or make some lose theirs.Mrs. Phoebe really didn’t deserve this for any reason, her only crime was knowing me.I really need

Third person p.o.v.The ride was quiet enough, Meredith was done with the mind games.She needed to know if she was in danger or not but the man beside her seemed less bothered about her presence than actually having thoughts to kill her.At a point she was beginning to wonder if it was all a prank from someone or something because nothing seemed to be adding up.Or making sense.So, she decided to start the conversation.“They said my father was looking for me.” She started.The masked man beside her may have not heard her, or he pretended not to have.But he definitely did not gratify her with a response.‘he seemed so chatty earlier, what exactly would she have caused with her silence.’ She thought to herself but decided she should try again later.She was feeling quite sleepy, but she would mentally strike herself in the head if she even thought of closing her eyes in t

Hunter knew he had struck a nerve from her reaction when he stated his request all he wanted was her response.And assistance.“I don’t know what you’re talking about” she whispered with a tight smile, most likely trying not to make it obvious to any onlookers that she was in an uncomfortable conversation.“I was sent by Mr. Reid; I need your help.” He whispered back to her.She stared at him for a few seconds with narrow eyes and tight lips as she was trying to decipher if she should believe him or not.“Who are you?” she asked.Hunter remembered when Mr. Reid had informed him that this question was almost inevitable from her, and each party she worked with had a code answer to the question.“I am blue.”She eyes moved frantically around the café to be sure no one was observing nor approaching.“Ahh, Mr. Huong. The regular?”The greeti

It was either that or the floor of the room anyways so he really didn’t have much of a choice.He had a meeting with Mrs. Hao this morning. What he needed was a shower and a little breakfast which he presumed he can get at the café also.He arched his back a bit to know if he could get a crack that might release the ache but it was to no avail, so he just went ahead with his daily schedule.The door to the room was closed and he tried knocking to know if she was already up but not properly dressed or if she was sleeping.After the third knock, he heard her say‘its open’from the inside. Only then did he open the door.As he guessed
