29 Minutes Left and I'm the Suspected Bomber

29 Minutes Left and I'm the Suspected Bomber

Outside the police tape surrounding a fancy hotel, a police officer can be seen blocking my way. "There seems to be a bomb hidden in the hotel! Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to get any closer!" I'm just about to dig out my work badge when the intern next to me, Christine Wyatt, covers her mouth in a pretentiously shocked manner. "Officer, there's a detonator and a timer in his bag! Those things look so scary!" The entire scene goes eerily silent. Almost immediately, I see a few guns getting aimed at my forehead. Anxiety begins overwhelming me. "I'm a bomb disposal expert from the Headquarters Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit! My bag contains all the tools necessary to dispose of a bomb!" "Throw your bag over to me and keep your hands where I can see them!" Captain Scott Hunter roars at me. My bag is opened afterward. Things like an insulated cutter, a bomb suppression blanket, and a liquid nitrogen cooling tank are scattered across the ground. Before I can explain myself, Christine suddenly points at me while screaming, "Why are you still playing dumb? You just told me that you wanted to set off an explosion in that hotel! "What, now that the police are here, you dare not admit what you just said, huh? You're a terrorist through and through!" Scott reacts quickly by pinning me on the hood of the police cruiser with my hands folded behind my back. "We're taking you back for a thorough interrogation!" My heart almost stops at those words. The bomb that's packed with enough firepower to take out half a street has already gone on a countdown in the hotel lobby. But I, the only bomb disposal expert who can get rid of the bomb, have handcuffs put on me because of Christine's nonsensical accusations. Right now, there are only 29 minutes left before the bomb goes off.

Mon copain m'a refilée à son cousin mafieux

Mon copain m'a refilée à son cousin mafieux

J'ai pris une balle à la place de mon petit ami, Leo. À mon réveil, j'ai décidé de lui jouer un petit tour. Je lui ai dit que j'avais perdu la mémoire. Je voulais voir comment il réagirait. Mais j'ai plutôt vu une lueur d'excitation dans ses yeux. Et l'instant d'après, il a fait venir son cousin, Dante, le parrain de la famille. « Voici ton fiancé, Dante. Vous êtes fiancés depuis deux ans. » Dante, l'homme qui était censé me détester. À présent, il me regardait comme si j'étais tout son univers. « Oui », a-t-il dit. « Je suis ton fiancé. » Très bien. J'allais jouer le jeu. Je devais savoir à quel jeu Leo jouait. Cette nuit-là, je l'ai vu sur les images de vidéosurveillance du manoir de Dante. Leo, au lit avec une autre femme. Il l'embrassait comme s'il mourait de faim. Il la pénétrait. Et il disait du mal de moi. « Laisse mon cousin s'occuper de Bella pendant un moment. Elle est tellement exigeante. C'est toi dont j'ai vraiment besoin, Scarlett. » Mon cœur s'est brisé. Il m'avait refilée à un autre homme, juste pour pouvoir s'amuser. Très bien. Je pouvais jouer le même jeu. Je me trouverais un nouveau fiancé. J'ai enfilé la robe de mariée. J'ai embrassé Dante — un baiser profond et dévorant, juste devant Leo. Et alors, il s'est enfin effondré. Il a perdu la tête. Il m'a dit qu'il avait eu tort et m'a suppliée de revenir.

Touch My Son, Touch Your Death

The school boxing match. My son Leo’s gloves were lined with broken glass. I carried him from the ring. Blood was everywhere, staining the canvas crimson.

"Some gutter trash like you… thinks he can challenge the Falcone heir? This is what happens. Believe me, I say the word, and you disappear. Poof." I just raised an eyebrow. The Falcone family has one heir this generation. My son, Leo. So when did a Falcone become gutter trash? I wiped the blood from my lip. I called the Don—the man my father made. "I hear the Falcone family has a new heir." Let's see who has the nerve to touch the old Don's grandson.
