“Hurry Benji.” Aaron was running for the sand dune. The bullets keep hitting the sand close to them both.“Bastard…you can run…” he calls a warning.“You are nothing without your gun and your hired dogs.” Aaron calls before behind the dune. He was making his way quickly towards the direction of the road.“You think you are clever. I am smarter than you all.” Victor fired another shot. The way the cork clicks, it was now empty.“Benji…” Aaron looks towards him. The man looks angry. “I am going to run in a different direction. Try and reach the SUV. Try to get Sylvia out.” Aaron said in a voice full of authority.“Okay,” Benji look relief to do something very specific to channel his anger.“Victor…”“Help me up,” Anja orders one of the men who stayed behind.“You are shot.” “I know that. It hurts like hell. Where is Victor?” Anja struggles to get onto her feet. “The bastard shot me. Help me get onto my feet.” She holds her hand. “I can’t believe he did that?” She watches the man who st
“Victor, what are we doing here?” Anja looks nervous. She was definitely out of her comfort zone. This area looks to clean and she hates being this close to water.“I want you to be quiet,” Victor looks towards the SUV.“Answer me, Victor.”“Anja, for once in your life, just do what I am asking. If this is too much of a problem go back to the vehicle.”“You have change. I don’t like that.”“It’s life and constant problems created by you, Anja.”Victor climbed out and start to approach the beach house from an angle that he hopes the workers won’t see him coming. He was surprise discovering people there. He was told the place was empty.Aaron and Benji has been watching their furtive approach. He smiles clearly noticed those two and sand don’t mix well. “Benji…”“Yes,”“Did the workers start to leave?”“They are almost ready.”“I hope Sylvia Stanton is okay.” Benji went to talk to the supervisor of the working crew.“Okay, what are you two up too?” Aaron voiced his question to himself.
Aaron stood looking at him his mind a whirlpool of crazy thoughts. He can hear his heart beat. He can sense his unease growing in worry about where she might be. He stood looking at Benji, he frowns when he noticed a young woman hidden in the back of his mind. Without thinking twice, he reaches out to touch him on the shoulder. He shook his head and wonders if he was going crazy.“I should leave. I want to check some crazy idea that just popped into my memory.”“I am coming with you.”“Why?” Aaron looked at him again. It would seem each time he looked directly into his eyes he noticed the shadowy woman. That very shadow convince him it was somehow Annie.“Crown Towers is currently very toxic. It’s best I stay out of the way of Grace Jones.”“I am very uncertain about what I am doing.” Aaron wipes across his face.“I don’t care. We are going to work together.” Benji said matter of fact.Aaron starts to push the motorcycle from the shed. He watched Benji reached for the two helmets befo
The knock was brisk on the door. Aaron quickly pulled the blanket to cover the scars on his chest. He feels a kind of fear creeping all over his body. He just knew who ever was about to enter has no good intentions towards his swell being.“Who is there?” he starts to wonder where the doctor was who should have already helped him out of the hospital.The moment he saw who was entering, he just knew he was in trouble. He managed to noticed the nervous nurse who helped him earlier.“Sorry…sir. They ask to see you.” She avoided looking at him. He can hear the fear in her voice.“Thank you. I know who these people are.” He said flatly.Aaron has no choice in just staying in bed being surrounded by trouble. His eyes settle on Grace Jones. He then frowns slightly looking at the other two men. One of them looks official. The kind of official from Twin Rivers.“Is this the fool?” the man asked before looking at his very expensive watch.“Aaron, I want you to meet Annie’s soon to be husband.”
Annie woke with tears on her pillow. Her breathing was shallow while her heart still raced ahead, disguising the elusive threat of her remembered dream for crying too achingly. Her forgotten feelings and emotions made her cry anew. There within the grasp of her empty hands therein lie the ties for her ever-lasting love.She senses him like breathing but no matter how much she tries she can’t seem to move past the clouds in her memory. The emotions and words playing around in her head makes no sense yet she somehow believes in them with a strength that leaves her breathless.Since she was found the silent man who just moves around her, she begin to realize fear is such a basic part of her life though lately. What puzzles her the uncertainty of whatever it was she fear…It has become her master in many areas of her life. She can’t seem to shake the heavy blanket that clouded her heart so masterfully. Warm tears streak down her cheeks while she lay wide-eyed with a hallow echo in her hea
"Annie, are you coming?" Aaron stood watching her impatience clearly on his face. He felt a sense of urgency needing to get into the air. "Where are we going?" she crosses her arms over her chest looking towards him with open suspicion. "I will answer you but let's get into the air." his eyes moved towards the waiting helicopter.Annie starts to noticed how agitated he was. She took a deep breathe before she starts to approached him. The uncertainty and suspicion were fighting within her chest. The moment she was right beside him he reaches out before helping her firmly into her seat. He followed sitting down beside her. The helicopter suddenly glides into the air. "Aaron where are we heading?""Just be patient for a while. You won't be disappointed." he said quietly.Annie decides to focus on nothing just listening to her heartbeat. There was so much happening sometimes she wasn't certain what the heck was going on. She wants to look at the man, her husband, but there was such a huge
