"Take this. Make sure you deliver this to Jamel before 6pm today." I stamped the envelope and handed it over to Jade.

He nodded curtly before taking it from me. "Sure thing boss." With that, he bowed before walking out.

"First mission almost done." Lincoln said from behind.

"I just hope it goes as hope. Jade can be clumsy sometimes." I replied with a chuckle.

"Next, we need to get an informant from inside. They're sure to gain one from us, we need to be more careful." Lincolnshire said as he itched his brows slowly.

"I know. We don't really need informants from them, we need to disconnect all Cameras in here. They might want to hack through it, Jamel seems desperate with a look at the way he was acting yesterday.." I sighed.

"I should do that right away." He nodded. "What about a disguise, will it be okay?"

"A bitch will do, he loves bitches a lot." I smirks. "We can use that to get through him."

"You should handle that yourself." He toned before getting up. "I need to get the cameras disconnected as soon as possible."

"Sure, I'll take care of that."

I know I should trust Lincoln but I still need to be careful. I picked up my laptop from the centre table and open it, I need to get more information about Jamel and Gareth. Knowing more about them is gon' help me here.

First, I should go for Gareth Sebastian.

No information...

Wow! He did a great job by wiping his data away from the mass. Investigation will do if internet refuses to.

Jamel Grayson.

Only his age and his home address was here and oh! He got a sibling too. Looks like he cares about her a lot, but I'm so sorry I'll use his sibling against him.

"Gareth is the only problem here." I thought.

"Done, already." Lincoln pried into my system. "This look like Jamel 's profile."

"Yeah. He got a sister. Get all necessary information about her here before tomorrow." I said authoritatively before walking out.

"Sure thing, Hardie..."

...............

One week has pass and it seems nothing is happening from Jamel and Gareth's side. I know for sure they're trying to keep low, wanting me to strike first.

"How sure are you that they aren't expecting the first attack from you?" Lincoln said from behind, like he was reading my mind.

"I'm starting to think that way too." I sighed deeply. Seems like the silence I'm receiving from those two fuckers is just frustrating me and I can't help it. I need to detect their moves not the other way round, tch.

"What did you think is gon' happen here? You attack first? Or we keep watching them?" He picked his words carefully.

I groaned. Yeah, I hate to think this way. "Seriously, I don't know yet."

"You don't know? Really?" He hissed loudly. "The fu.ck Hardie, you're the game boss here, think fast."

"I'm tired of thinking." I replied as I lazily laid my head back. "What am I suppose to do then?"

"I can't believe you, Hardie. Seriously?" He twitched his lips, clearly showing disappointment.

"Why do I have this feeling about you, Lincoln? H-huh?" I huffed lowly.

He raised his left brow. "About me? That?"

"You are acting desperately lately, what's up your sleeve? Don't make me believe you're actually the bait they plant here. Or are you?" I said lazily.

He was taken aback as I watched his face clouded with confusion. "R-really, Hardie? Y-you can say that, huh?"

I shrugged my shoulders lightly. "Do I have a choice here?"

I never for once lose my trust in him but then I have to be careful, people change with time. I'm only doing this to poke his conscience, no hard feeling though.

"You can actually say this? Geez! I Never expected this from you, not you of all people. Sigh." He breathed out.

"Tsk, Lincoln. This isn't my fault, alright? People change with time." I replied flatly.

"I'm not people. I'm Lincolnshire, yeah?"

I ignored him and light a cigarette as I twirled the chair I'm sitting on. Lincoln sigh again like he's fighting something within himself, good thing.

"Fine, if that's what you think of me. Then so be it, I understand." He threaded carefully. "Trust isn't something to be gained lightly, I know."

With that what I heard next was his footsteps before I heard the door clicked silently. He left.

I just hope I'm not being too hard here.

***

Night seems to be fast approaching, I haven't seen Lincoln since our last encounter. Where did he go? Was he hurt by my words?

No! The Lincoln I know won't be bother by all that, yeah I'm sure. Even if he's hurt, he'll never react with. I've known him too long, he's always ignoring people's comments about him. But why now?

"Something is wrong here boss. W-we got an attack from..." Jade breath hard as he barged into my study room.

"Speak Jade, what's wrong?" I asked impatiently.

"Lincoln is severely injured, he's been attend to now." He replied between breath.

"Lincoln? How come?" I thundered. Did Lincoln sort of pulled some crazy stunt? No! He'll never do that shit, he's always been careful all his life.

"He asked me to accompany him to the warehouse at the hillside, said he needs to get something done immediately." He paused.

"And...?"

"Few minutes to us being inside, we were clouded with smoke. He ordered me out and the next I heard was an explosion. Someone had managed to plant bomb in your warehouse." He finished.

Silence fell.

"I think Lincoln was aware of the attack, don't you think?" He asked.

"How? What did you mean?" I creased my brows in confusion.

"More like being on the enemies' side?" He treaded slowly.

Lincoln?

I let out a sardonic laughter. "He'll never do that, I know that. Be rest assured."

Jade let out a sigh before heading out. My next plan is to know who's behind this before jumping into action...

  • His' Bait   The New Beginning

    [84]The sun dipped below the horizon as the fiery colours infused the sky above the sky above them, painting the perfect backdrop for the end of an era. As the crimson hues bled into the night, Lincoln couldn't help but admire the scene from the rooftop terrace if Hardie's lavish home.The cool breeze brush past them, bringing forth a scene of melancholy that mirrored the thoughts racing through Lincoln's mind. It was hard to believe that after all the hardship they had faced together, their journey was slowly screeching into a halt.Hardie, in his usual assertive manner, told Lincoln that he did not plan of letting him go anytime soon. Despite anticipation, the words slammed into Lincoln's chest like a brick wall, causing him to struggle for breath.Although, Lincoln had mentally prepared for such a confrontation, the reality was far more difficult to accept. Over the years, the two had become intertwined in a complex net of loyalty and betrayal, blurring the lines of their allianc

  • His' Bait   Let her go

    [83]"Isn't she the same with her?" I heard her asked all of a sudden, her voice was laced with outmost surprise or maybe shock.I raised my head up to the television's screen, trying to figure out what she was talking about. It was Ms. Roselle, that was her name, Hardie's mom. Why is she on the media all of a sudden? "She's the one, right?" She asked again, this time turning to me. "This is Hardie's mother." "Yeah." I nod in agreement, drawling my words. "I'm sure she is the one, she looks like her and the name too." "Why is she on the screen then?" Charlotte furthered, staring questioningly at me. I frowned at her question, we are both in the same room and she is the one who had informed me about this yet, she is asking me such a question? She's seriously unbelievable! "Were you not the one who just told me about it?" I return her question back to her. "And we are yet to listen to what she might have done." "You are right." She said sounding defeated but I did not really care.

  • His' Bait   The same with her

    [82] ||•Lincoln Shire•||"Welcome..." The hotel receptionist uttered, wearing a delightful expression as she smiled warmly at us.I'm not the type that smiles but I was kind enough to reciprocate it. Charlotte, on the other hand, just gave her a slight nod with a blank expression on her face. It's obvious that she's too tired for all of this, every thing about her tell it all."Two VIP..." I simply stated but the stare on her face tells otherwise, I need her not to say much before I understand her expression. "We'll just hop for any available rooms left, okay. As far as it's as comfortable as a home, we have no choice to it."She shook her head with an apologetic look on her face. "I'm sorry, Sir..." She muttered, avoiding eye contact with Charlotte and I. "It's just a room left, all other rooms are occupied for the night."Mere looking at Charlotte, she was not comfortable with herself as she scrunched her face tightly in displeasure. "Why...?" She requested with indifference

  • His' Bait   A break

    [81] ||•Lincoln Shire•||The day has been kind of hectic for Charlotte and I, tailing and spying on other lords just to get want we want from them.Well, as usual, Charlotte was used as the bait to get to them. I must commend how much she has done in the nick of time.She made every thing much easier for me since they are things I can do and places I can't penetrate as a male, yeah .Retiring for the day, we decided to lodge the night in one of the suites around till the next day.I would have vouch for a clubhouse instead because there, I would surely meet with new lords but Charlotte had insisted we get a proper night sleep instead.Well, I have no other choice to obliging. We will just find a suitable suite for us after we are done with our drinks. •••"I think I need a break after this." Charlotte muttered before chugging down her last cup of wine. "This is becoming much more challenging than it ever was.""What break —?" I asked with my brows raised in questioni

  • His' Bait   At The Park

    [80] ||Hardie Morrison||I speed up and in no time, we arrived at the park, the same park I brought her to couple of months ago. It was just few weeks after we met. Arlington was a little bit surprised, well, it reflected on her face."I guess I did not see this coming..." She countered with a soft chuckle after. "Why did you bring us here?"I ignored her question and helped her undo her seat belt. "Come on." I said instead and hopped down from the car.She hopped down immediately after I did before I was able to turn around. "I can always help myself with the door, you should stop worrying over little things." She said as she shut the car's door behind her."Little things also matters, Arling." I told her in reply and hold her hand, and intertwined it with mine. "What did you want?" "I want… that." She pointed at the cotton candy not to far from us, wearing a wide smile on her face. The smile of hers that I did not want to miss, not now or ever.I’ve done so much wrong

  • His' Bait   I lied, Ms. Grayson.

    [79] ||Hardie Morrison||"Ms. Roselle is coming home with us." Arling suddenly announced which made Hardie stopped in his track."What...?!" I blurted out, almost choking on my own breathe. " think I heard wrong, yeah. What did you say?""What did I say?" She repeated my question with her brows deeply creased. "I said; Ms. Roselle would be coming with us, did I say some thing awful?"These days, ever since this fóxy human suddenly introduced herself to you, I see you enjoy getting on my nerves...” those were the words I wanted to reply her with but said some thing else instead.I know and I'm sure of it, this fóxy human is trying to cause a rift between Arlington and I the same way she did to Amelia and other people too.But then, I would never give in to such cheap plan she drafted. I'll just have to pretend I never heard Arling speaks about her or made mention of her name."Aren’t you tired of staying here?" I asked, diverting the topic else where. "You’ve been in the ho
