(A few Moments Later)More than 100 men and women were waiting for my and George’s instructions while positioned in front of the base, and I was on the balcony of the 1st floor.George walked out of his office and stood alongside me, holding the balcony’s railing firmly, giving a short glance towards me and taking a deep breath before stating, “So, we’re about to strike Evelyn’s base, so please listen closely. You’ve already been sorted into eight groups, so let me assign missions to each. Initially, just five teams will attack.Team 1 will distract the ranger Forest officer and engage them in combat, while Team 2, which includes our tech genius and shooters, will drive first and assess the situation before reporting back to us. When the scenario is updated, team 3 will assault from the front (team George), while team 4 (Alex team) will strike from the back. Last but not least, team 5 will be split in half, with half following me and half following Alex, to assist in medical.”Our mem
They both sat in their own vehicles and began driving while communicating over AirPods. "Do you remember the true strategy, Brother?" George inquired as he turned around a tiny corner. They weren't traveling with their subordinates, but rather alone and at their own pace.Alex scoffed at his brother's comments and rolled his eyes, saying, "Of course, brother, I wasn't the one who injured his head when he was 10 years old while being afraid of a small mouse, in our maid's chamber. So, I sincerely doubt that you remember or not."George was astounded since his brother never makes fun of him; he just knows how to shoot and get laid with ladies, but never flirt.George bit his lip and mumbled a small "thank you" to his brother for being with him during these crucial 3 days. For him, time seemed to have stopped during those 26 days because it had become too much for him to handle on his own with a 5-year-old son.Those 26 days, or 4 weeks, were a whirlwind of stress and emotions, and he wa
"Come on in," Alex replied, not even bothering to hide his grin. George hopped in, rolling his eyes. Not before removing his bag containing a gun and other required items from his car.After starting his car, Alex questioned suddenly, "How did they know that one of us would be driving through this way?"I don't know, but one of the team members from team 1 who is currently tackling the Forest Officers told me that they also encountered similar issues and were able to tackle them." Alex listened intently as George spoke and debated whether or not to respond.He sighed and concluded, "I'm going to stop my car over there, and from there, we will continue by hiding and walking right; this is the second base of Senior Range officers, and we don't know if they too work for Evelyn or not, so okay let's go," He motioned over to a bushy area with two big thick trees that would be ideal for hiding his car.George nodded and looked around the area, which was indeed quiet. Then, finally, he scrat
I hurried quickly towards the little chamber of John, the second to last room on the packed Floor. I strolled over each section,Their not-so-worthy, cruelly tormented form gratified me a little and gave me an ugly grin.In this long, narrow basement, we just put two lights. That was enough for me to see their dejected and disenchanted expressions.I groaned and finally paid attention to John after halting at his chamber; he was heavily breathing, but his face was calm.The serenity on his face triggered me, and I budged inside his chamber, capturing my fingerprint on the lock system on the right side of the walls near each room.My next move utterly stunned him as I grabbed his throat and jerked him towards the wall."What exactly are you up to?" I didn't leave his neck despite John's challenging remark. His eyes were closed as he tried to absorb the pain I was inflicting on his neck; I didn't want to do it, but I was unable to stop.Something deep within me is urging me to stop what
George’s POV "So, you don't remember ha," he continued as he slowly turned to face me. He was my height, but his aura was no match for mine right now. I scrutinized my stare and carefully examined his facial features for any indication of deception or suspicion, but utterly failed, He sighed deeply and stood still, folding his palm and staring at an empty space. I'm wondering why, if he had my daughter, he assisted me in learning where she was and reassured me of their safety. He claimed that I killed his daughter, but then he somehow assisted, and why was he abandoned by his own men when he was already in their favor. My mind was racing with all of these details, which I am unable to comprehend. “This conversation is best saved for another day because I already have a plan on how to save your daughter.” His words drew my focus away from my jumbled thoughts and back to him. I nodded for him to continue, but something stuck in my mind, why did he mention only Kendall and not Shr
Flashback ENDS*Author’s POVAlex was listening intently as his brother described his morning conversation with John; "that's it," George muttered and headed forward."Wait, what did you and Jenna discuss?" Alex questioned, perplexed, pausing in his tracks.George told just half of the narrative, not the structuring of the scene, which had a part in the location of the perpetrators and Jenna's action sequel.George sighed audibly as they moved up the hilly route. "Watch it yourself," he grinned, narrowing his eyes to examine his brother's reaction and pointing his fingers on the way they were moving, for his brother to see.When Alex moved in the direction George indicated, he was startled to see the mayhem in the building; the first three floors were completely visible through the windows.Team 1 was already here, assisting teams 3 and 4, while team 2 was handling the 4 and 5 floors from the woods, clearing the way for Shrey and Jenna."We're here, Brother," George remarked, smirking
"What?" I questioned him since I was so tired and didn't know what was going on; he was depressed over his kid a few days ago but is now absolutely well. He was furious because he couldn't find his wife, and now he's relaxed. As if we're here to see his wife fight and we'll only do little, minor bouts."You're probably wondering how Shrey is still fighting despite losing her memory," he said as he continued on his way. I groaned and looked around to see if there were any more men remaining on the third floor for us to carry on to the next floor. "Uh, yes?" I responded nonchalantly, but my curiosity had already set in."When I spoke with Jenna, I directed her to-" before he could continue his sentence, our EarPods were linked to our subordinates again to alert us, "We spotted your daughter sir, she is on the 5th floor and the 4th floor is already clear so you can simply skip the floor."Alex’s POV EndsGEORGE’s POVMy subordinates' words were a pure delight to my ears, and I couldn't b
"Are you all right, sweetheart?" Alex inquired, Kendall breaking the embrace to glance at her uncle, who had slightly watery eyes and was standing next to her, caressing her hair,as if telling her that everything is already in place, which it most certainly is since her father is here for her.She smiled and motioned for her uncle to pick her up from my embrace so she could hug him; it was only then that I noticed her condition:she was pale and thin, and bruised near her forehead with frizzy tangled hairs trying to hide it; even her dress, which I had given her a few days before the accident,was slightly torn and looked like dirty mops in Asian houses.Even the thought of certain things made my blood boil, so I gritted my teeth and fist my palm."Alex, get Kendall out of here," I said as softly as I could, he nodded and smiled at Kendall, "Let's go, Kenny," he said swinging her a little, but she looked sadly towards me, "dad," she said with hopeful eyes,I know what it means, but I
