"Hey! you stop right there", seeing the guard running towards her.
She looked around but no one was there, she brought her ring to her mouth.
"Aiden, where are you?"
"Look at the side", she saw him waving his hand from far on a boat.
"Why are you there?"
"Come fast, they are coming for you, I saw that woman calling for the guard"
She picked up his unconscious body from the floor and jumped into the river.
She grasped his hair and hauled him with her to swim the river, she swam to the boat.
Aider drew out his gun and shot the guard and the woman on the boat who saw her, then he started shooting who were coming for them.
She reached the boat, Aiden pulled Kirill's body onto the boat as he was still unconscious and then helped her to get on the boat.
"He is not dead, right?", he asked her seeing the man still unconscious.
"Fast, leave from here first, he's just unconscious", she said in between her breath.
"Yes", he went to start the motor to drive away from there.
Suddenly, he saw the guards pointing his gun in their direction. He turned around and shot the men aiming at them.
She turned her face in the direction where he shot the bullet. More men started to come out and started firing on them.
"Give me the gun and drive the boat, they can follow us with other boats"
"Don't worry, I made sure they want", he threw another gun at her and started the motor.
He drove away from there to the bank of the river where there were not many people. First, she stepped out of the boat, and then Aiden got out carrying Miller's body on his shoulder.
She can't see the yacht now.
"They are not following us", she dropped herself to the ground.
"Were not you too far from the yacht? You even know how heavy this hulk is."
"If I waited around the yacht, then I will be the one to shoot first then you. Don't be naggy", he replied to her in a sassy way.
"Ayy Aiden! How dare you call me naggy? Don't forget I am elder than you"
"We joined at the same time, it's just I was in a different department and I don't consider you one", he replied while pulling out her phone from his pocket.
"I am calling the headquarter", Aiden dialed a call on his phone and asked for a car at their location.
Soon a car arrived there, two-man got out of the car. They picked up Mr. Miller's body and put it in the car. He was about to sit in the same car when she stopped him.
"Our car is behind this one", he saw behind the car there was another black car standing behind.
"You are going to drive, I will change my clothes at the back", she took the keys from the driver and pass them to him.
"This is the one we came in right? do you have clothes to change it?", he asked her questionably thinking that she is just pushing the keys to him.
"I always carry an extra pair of clothes in my car", she sat in the back seat of the car and he sat in the driver seat.
"Don't try to peek here", she told him as she undressed in the car.
He didn't reply to her and drove to the headquarters in Russia.
*****
They both entered the headquarter, she is now wearing a grey hoodie with jeans. Everyone greeted the two on their way. They reached their senior's office, a guard opened the door for them.
A man in his 40s was sitting behind the desk, the two greeted him.
"Thank you, for your help Agent Chloe and Agent Aiden. We will make sure to repay your kindness.", the man spoke with full courtesy.
The girl who brought Miller and was with Aiden now is Chloe, the two are spy's in Federal American Investigation. They both were sent there by the agency to work with Russians in a collaborative project to eradicate the drug mafia, Kirill Miller was one of the big names among them.
"We didn't help you, we are just following our orders", she replied.
"Your part is done now, we will handle things from here"
"If everything is done I would like to leave."
They two left the room.
"Are we going to return right now? in the night?"
"Mr. Patrick called me last night and he wants me to return earlier, that's why I pushed everything so that I can return. You are going to stay here, submit a report here and in our agency too", she told him leaving the headquarters.
"You are leaving me here for paperwork.", he said with a frustrated look on his face.
"You know this is the most important part", she said patting his back, "I have a flight soon. Return soon."
She left with the car from there and went back in.
---- In Canada's Headquarters ----
After returning from Canada, It was morning now. She took a taxi from the airport and reached the agency's office there.
She entered Mr. Patrick's office.
"You should've rested for at least a day before coming to the office.", he said in a calm voice, eyes on the files in front of him.
She didn't say a word and remain stood there. Although she is cheerful in her personality, she never says anything in front of him if not needed. It's not, she is afraid of him but she respects him too much. He was the man who brought her up all these years even though he wasn't her father or any relative.
"Now, If you are here, let's get to work.", he closed the file and threw it toward her.
"This is going to be your first solo mission, all the information you needed is in this file."
"Dave Castello, the famous Castello family", she said in an astonished voice.
"I know you were investigating the Castello family, so I thought you would be the best agent for this beside he is not some easy mafia anyone can deal with, I need someone whom I can trust and capable of it."
"I will make sure to give you a fruitful result", she replied to him with confidence.
"He is going to cut a deal with the Asian mafia for drugs, you have to stop the deal and found concrete evidence against him."
She went to her office.
*****
She spends two days in her office searching for all the information about the Castello family.
She was keeping a track of all the members of the Castello Family, they were mafias from four generations and the ones who set the rules in the mafia world. The rules were there, the law was there and the entire business was there.
After two days of finding a lead on Dave, she received a tip from the agency that Dave Castello will meet someone in a nightclub.
"Mr. Dave Castello, it feels like a piece is missing. Don't worry I will find that soon and then you will be behind bars because now I am going to enter your life", she said to herself staring at the board where she pasted personal information found on the Castello Family.
She hung up the phone.Mira questioned her, "What happened?"."He simply ditched me, saying he got some urgent work."A car stopped in front of them.When the two turned to face the automobile, the car's window dropped.Frank was seated in the vehicle."Hey! You must be finished with your work now. Come along with me.", Frank remarked as he turned his face to Chloe from inside the vehicle."Why should I?", Chloe asked in a quiet voice glaring at him.Chloe's words were not heard by the two of them."If you'd like, let's go out to dinner together.", Frank suggested with a smile."Oh! I believe your friend arrived. Hello, I am Chloe's colleague Mira, we are in the same department.", Chloe heard Mira say this."No, he's not the friend I was talking about...", Chloe said to avoid misunderstanding.Frank interrupted Chloe's sentence, "Nice to meet you, mam. Thank you, for keeping her in your company.""No, he..."Missing Chloe's words, Mira said, "You were talking about something ditching
"You don't have to behave like my girlfriend anymore after we reveal about brother. We can sign another contract too."On the same day, in the afternoon, in the company"I will think about your words and respond later," Chloe remembered saying before leaving Frank's room."I know you'd make a wise decision," Frank said as she exited the room.Chloe was replaying the morning conversation in her head.'I have no choice but to comply with what they are saying. But now my goal has shifted; I was already lacking in information on Dave, and now I know nothing about him. Aiden has not yet contacted me. I'm sure I'm on their radar now. I can't even get in touch with him. Only if I can ask him directly.' Chloe reflected as she sat at her desk.Chloe was lost in her thoughts and didn't notice that someone was calling out for her.She was working at her desk when she heard a small knock. Mira was the one."Huh?" Chloe asked, perplexed.Mira, pointed her finger at Alex, who was standing a little
The Next Day, Early MorningChloe was dozing off in her bed when she flipped over.Behind her, she sensed a dip in the mattress, like though someone had been sitting on it.Without delay, she spun around and withdrew the dagger that she always kept beneath her pillow.She brandished the dagger at the intruder in her room.He raised his hands instantly, and it was Frank, she saw sitting on the bed."I assumed you were getting a good night's sleep." Frank remarked, "I see you are quite sensitive."Pointing the blade at him, Chloe questioned, "How did you come in?"Frank jokingly said, "Shouldn't your question be what I am doing here?"Glaring at him, Chloe said, "Answer me, first.""OK, all right." Frank replied, "I entered through that door; it's my house, and I have extra keys for all the doors in this house."Chloe noticed the door opened.Frank asked, "Now, will you put down that dagger?" as he pushed the blade halfway down.Chloe reclaimed the dagger.Chloe asked, ruffling her seve
Chloe left Frank and Dave and went to her room.As Chloe walked away, Frank asked Dave, "Can we go to my room?""Yes. By now, the room must have been cleaned by the maids.""I kept this room locked while you were away.", Dave said as he opened the door, "Everything is as it is, as you left it."Frank replied, looking around the room and recalling all the memories of his youth he had, some fuzzy and some as vivid as the sky, "Hmm... it's been a long right?"Dave hugged his brother once more and whispered, "I waited for you."Frank could hear a slight tremble in Dave's voice.Frank hugged him back, and let him rest on his shoulder for a while."How can you trust her alone? What if something happened to you? I would have sent more people. Why you asked for her alone.", Dave asked as a tear escaped from his eyes falling on his brother's shoulder.Frank said to his brother, "I wanted to see what she was capable of and what not.""You take such a big chance just to try her out?", Dave quest
On one side, Frank and Chloe were standing, and on the other, the enemy's men were waiting for Frank."I'll handle everything; just get in the car and drive away from here," Chloe told Frank.Chloe was prepared to fight back though she knew she couldn't win over these men. But the only thing she has to do is get Frank safely out of here.The enemy's men began to approach them.Frank took Chloe's hand in his."We're not going to win here." Frank said as he began running in the opposite direction pulling Chloe with him."Run." Frank said.With all those men trailing behind them."What are your thinking? We can't avoid them for long even if we run inside.", Chloe said as she ran."Simply follow me and run as fast as you can. We just need to vanish from their sight.", Frank said as the two kept running.Suddenly, a bullet was fired at them. Chloe looked behind her, and those men were getting closer. They were shoving people all over the place.The airport police attempted to stop them, bu
Dave escorted Chloe away from the party. There was another car alongside the one they arrived in. Dave made her to sit in the other car.Chloe noticed, while getting in, the Castello's symbol wasn't on the car.Dave inquired about her arms, "Are you loaded?""Sufficiently.", she answered."If you require additional weapons, there is one right beneath your seat. You are also free to take that. The driver will take you to your destination and explain everything to you. There will be a man there. Bring him safely to me. That is your responsibility.""What is his name? How will I recognize him? ", Chloe inquired, perplexed by what was going on.If there was an emergency, hundreds of Dave's men will be stationed here. But no one was there, so it could be someone Dave doesn't want anyone to know about.Who could it possibly be? Chloe asked to herself."The driver will give you a picture. I'll tell the others that you weren't feeling well, so we're both going back. I'll be waiting for you a
