I hurriedly got out of the car after him, my guns appeared in my hands and I pointed them forward. Someone rolled out of the car, a gun in hand. I fired at him before he could pull the trigger. The bullet caught him in his shoulder and the gun dropped from his hands with a clatter as he cried out.

    AURELIA I hurriedly got out of the car after him, my guns appeared in my hands and I pointed them forward. Someone rolled out of the car, a gun in hand. I fired at him before he could pull the trigger. The bullet caught him in his shoulder and the gun dropped from his hands with a clatter as he cried out.Zayn shot the guy in his chest, finishing him off before tucking his head inside to drag out a second guy. The woman was lying on the seat, not moving, blood pooling around her chest while the other man tried to suppress her bleeding with both hands, his temple wet with sweat as he desperately tried to make sure she didn't die but I could tell that it was a lost cause and she was already far gone. Zayn grabbed him by his collar and hauled him out.The man instantly went on his knees, begging for mercy.“Please I promised I was going to pay the balance, why did you have to do this…” he wailed.“It's not about the money Tom… you came into the ballroom with the intention of trying to p

  • THE RUIN HE CHOSE    THE STILETTO CHASE

    AURELIA There was an actual fucking pregnant woman wearing stilletos. Not the 4 inch but an actual flipping 6 Inches. I wondered what sort of dumb person would pretend to be pregnant and actually wear heels. Zayn seemed to notice I wasn't focused and he followed my gaze and immediately noticed what I noticed. He dragged me away from Ms Taylor, leaving her hanging mid sentence. He walked towards another waiter and picked a glass of wine.. turning back to watch the pregnant woman, he raised the glass to his lips and spoke.“Target in sight.”“Copied,” jade's voice broke into my eardrums. The woman looked back and noticed us staring at her. Her lips moved and she said something before hurriedly trying to make her way out, weaving her way through the crowd of people. Zayn's hands were still wrapped around mine, he followed her while trying not to draw attention to us, moving effortlessly through the crowd and pulling me after him. We finally got out and noticed the woman briskly runnin

  • THE RUIN HE CHOSE    THE REFLEX TEST

    AURELIA.I ducked and positioned the Glock 19 before me, pointing it towards him, wondering if he had already discovered I was here on another mission and was planning on eliminating me right there before registering the click the gun made.It had no bullets in it?I looked at him confused as I stood up, still pointing the gun at him. He shrugged as if trying to show he was impressed and unimpressed at the same time.“What the fuck was that?” I yelled.“Wanted to confirm if you had quick reflexes. It's quite impressive,” he said, taking off his watch. “Get changed, we have somewhere to be,” he said and walked away leaving me standing there with the pistol in my hand. I didn't know how I was supposed to find my way but I did. I wandered around until I found a door. I pushed it open and walked in. The room was basically empty. Just a wardrobe, a bed and a mirror. I walked briskly towards the wardrobe and pried the door open. Different outfits were stacked in there, and underneath wer

  • THE RUIN HE CHOSE    THE TRIGGER

    AURELIA By the time I got back, Lorenzo had finished eating, he was wiping his mouth with a napkin when I sat down, without another word he stood up and left. Zayn was typing rapidly on his phone before he suddenly stood up.“We have to leave now,” he said. He stood up and immediately forgot everything about being a sweet and lovely boyfriend. I bowed lightly to his dad and grabbed my purse, running after him in my heels. I could barely keep up with him. He got into an elevator and didn't even bother holding the door open. I increased my speed trying to catch up with him before the doors shut.I gave him a nasty glare but he completely ignored me. We didn't say anything as we got into the car downstairs and drove out. “Where are we heading to?” I asked after a long moment of battling internally with myself. I wasn't disappointed. He flat out ignored me and rapidly kept typing away on his tablet. I swallowed and tried to fold the edge of the gown as it still made me very uncomfortabl

  • THE RUIN HE CHOSE    THE ART OF PRETENSE

    AURELIA If you think Zayn looked like the most dangerous person then you should see the older version of him. It wouldn't take a genius to know who his father was amongst the two men sitting. He had few white graying strands of hair and his skin a bit wrinkled but he had the exact same striking handsomeness as his son. Zayn turned to me and patted down my hair.“There you go,” he said tenderly, removing his hands from mine and bending down to hold the edge of my gown as I sat. It wasn't necessary I could sit down either way but he still wanted to pass the impression that he was madly in love with me. I forced myself to get into character and smiled sweetly at him, desperately hoping it didn't show on my face that I was faking it. My cheeks started to hurt from being stretched.The two men quietly watched us act like couples in love.“Dad, meet my beautiful girlfriend and wife to be… Celez.” He said flatly. I looked at him in disbelief, he could have at least tried to sound convincin

  • THE RUIN HE CHOSE    MIA CARA

    AURELIA I followed Jade out of the dark office, my boots silent on the polished floor. He’d only grumbled a curt “Come on” before turning on his heel, but I didn’t need more than that. The house felt different now. It even looked emptier, save from the few bodyguards I keep seeing lurking around.All the people who had filled the rooms earlier had vanished, We slid into the car without a word. Jade gripped the wheel like it had personally offended him, and I stared out the window, arms crossed tight over my chest. The city lights blurred past, but I barely registered them. Neither of us spoke. The quiet wasn’t peaceful, it was a loaded gun between us, safety off.I didn’t even notice when we stopped. One moment the road was moving, the next we were parked in front of a sleek, high-end mall that looked like it belonged in a different world from the one I usually inhabited. Attendants in crisp uniforms materialized instantly, all polite smiles and quick bows. Jade jerked his chin towa
