She wonder why her life is entwined with so much cruelty and horror, she had been questioned by the police who promised to save her kidnapped friend.

Deep down, Kingsley had explained why he wanted to hurt her initially at the hotel without letting anything out, she however understood the reason for his kidnapped by the gangs. She heaved a sigh and stretched herself to sit properly on the chair in arrival of her Dad. Soon the door opens and a worried Mr. William enters.

“This is so ridiculous” he said immediately he entered and turned to hug his daughter who came running into his embrace . He had been worried sick after he heard the news in Abuja and had to rushed down straight to Lagos.

“The level of insecurity in this country is alarming, it’s my fault I let you experience this bad horrible scene again, I’ve delayed your traveling to the state too much and I think its high time you go, I can’t let anything happens to you”. he added worriedly.

“No dad, I can’t leave yet, not now”

“why? Why won’t you Jane?” her father widened his brow and questioned,

“ Dad, a friend of mine was kidnapped, I can’t just leave like that”

“oh common Jane, the police would do their job, better to leave it to them, they surely know what to do, your friend will be rescued soon. You are all I have, I wouldn’t forgive myself if anything should happen to you”

“nothing will happen to me dad, please try to understand, I can’t just leave like that” she turned and walk back to sit .

“he’s my boyfriend and I love him so much Daddy, please daddy I just can’t”

Mr William widened his brow in confusion and stared at her. “Your boyfriend, your boyfriend”
!!! he repeated, “and I don’t know him?” he exclaimed. “Jane I cannot… “

“Daddy please, I can’t, I need a break right now please daddy, its your support I need most, not this please” she stands and walk away immediately without letting him speak.

Stunned Mr William watch her wipe her tears while she walk away, wondering what she just said, she hadn’t ever mentioned having any boyfriend even after he had discussed having one with her which she discard  seriously, something she detests. Its dawn on him that his daughter needs his love and support now more than ever. He need to tightened the security around her or probably put some men to watch her every step and protect her from distance.

GMT 10:38 pm

The cab stopped right in front of the gate building as directed by the agent, he dropped and pay off the cab man. He heaved a sigh as he watch the cab drive pass him, initially he would have horn to get the security attention to open the gate, though he has been promised to be given a new car at the office and Angelina also promised to get him one out of her father’s untouched latest car, here he is knocking the gate hard just to enter.. the gate opened within minutes, the security guard beep through and smiled.

“welcome bro, how work today? U teil for outside today oooo, hope no problem?” He asked in pidgin.

“not at all, I went somewhere today, that’s why am late”

.
“oh! Welcome then, less I forget, I must say you have a good eye for beautiful things ooo, that aunty wey dey come here pretty ooo, as if say she no be from this planet, and help me thank her, She always give me something whenever she comes around”

.
“oh !!! thanks for the compliment, That’s is good, I will do just that, well done there” the agent smiled tiredly and made to leave

“alright sir, have a good sleep”

“yeah” he replied walking away.

He proceed towards his flat, noticing the neighbors at the other flats are home early and their doors are locked, there wasn’t light either. He brought out his phone to switch on the flashlight and searched for his key. He checked over his pocket and the jacket on him without finding it, he hissed and heaved a sigh remembering he had left it on his desk at the office and had forgotten to take it.

“What do I do now?” He asked silently to himself.

“The extra keys are with Angelina, oh my goodness”, going back to the office and returning will take him hours even though the traffic may have reduced, there’s no point in calling Angelina too, its going to take more hours to get to her for the key. He however decide to break the locks and call for repairing the next morning.

He moved backward a bit to hit the locks with his legs when the door gave way easily, surprised and stunned, he hissed.

“Does it mean Angelina didn’t lock this door when she left this morning and I’ve been here deliberating for 10 minutes on what to do” he said to himself and enters

Closing the door gently, his hands searched around the switch to on the light, three men were sitting comfortably on each sofas of the sitting room, he brought a revolver almost instantly but one of the men was quick, a bullet pierced through his left face surprisingly before he could raise his gun and he was motioned to fall on his knees immediately.

One of them smiles and flash his teeth angrily, “is this the ugly a$$ Angelina is dying for? oh my a$$, what the crap” he asked while they burst into laughter.

Gabriel was stunned and taken by surprise, its was so fast he couldn’t do anything or have himself killed, he has been feeling strange for the past weeks after Fred’s death and he knew he was been watched, trusting people was what he lacked, nobody could be trusted, that had get him so far all the while. He thought of what to do immediately but there was none, his gun had been taking from him likewise, he tried to digest what he just heard.

“please who are you men?” He raised his head to ask confidently without fear.

“You f****ng stupid bas***d, you still have the gut to ask a silly question?” one of them shouted and landed a heavy blow on him, Gabriel fall backwards and hit his jaw against the wooden edge of the chair, he winced in pain and was motioned to get back on his knees instantly.

“f**k your damn a$$, I don’t know why Angelina is running around you for, I gave her everything I have but she wouldn’t just accept me just because of what? You f****ng bas***d, what nerve do you have to snatch my girlfriend away from me?”

“Answer me idiot” he yelled.

“oh!” Gabriel exclaimed under his breath, its now make sense to him. The one shouting is the guy Angelina told him about on their first date, he could recall her words that she detest him, he’s fat and look like a pig.

He raised his head and stares glances at them confidently, truly he really look like a pig, he looked at the other two guys in seconds and returned his gaze back on the floor, one was fat while the third guy was muscular, they are absolutely some rich spoilt brat with no manners.

Another blow landed on him almost immediately, this time he really feel more pain, he spits out the blood wailing from him and looked up angrily at them. “You still dare raise yourself, you mother******” one of them shouted and landed a blow on him, followed by another and another continuously till the second gun man joined him while they both beat him to the core.

“I’ll better send you to hell” the third gun man shouted and point out the gun to sh00t but the light suddenly went off before he could pull the trigger.

“why is the light f****ng off? Who the hell off the light?” he shouted and sh00t immediately, followed by different sprays of gun shot towards the agent direction.

EPISODE 22

 

 

 

The whole room scattered with spray of bullets, the gunshot continues rapidly, the three guys shot carelessly not bothering if the agent is dead or not. They didn’t seize to cease fire due to the darkness.

 

A red deem light displayed right below the chair, there was a button at the left edge which was responsible for the darkness, the button are connected right in every corner of each room to off the light faster instead of using the switch, the agent had managed to press the button and immediately ran towards another room, he was quick and able to do that in darkness due to his familiarity with the settings of the room, he knew he barely escape from their grip due to their inexperience.

 

 

 

The security guard at the post ran towards the flat where the gunshot came from, wondering what was happening, the men at the other flats came out too due to the continuous gunshot. None of the women and children in the compound dare comes out, only the buoyant men who wanted to know what was happening came outside but none of them dare near the flat due to the flying bullets…

 

“Stop, stop, stop” !!! One of them shouted on top of his voice to stop the shooting but the other two didn’t hear due to the heavy sound, he brought out the touch light they had use in entering the flat entrance from his backpack and switch it on immediately, indicating they should stop firing.

 

 

 

They knew they had create more attention now and those in the compound should be awake, they looked around for the agent’s body but he wasn’t hit likewise, they had just wasted their bullets.

 

 

“We have to go now” one of them shouted.

 

 

“what the f**k, we can’t go now, we have to finish this, lets look around the rooms first”

 

 

“remember he’s armed, he has a gun with him and might be hiding behind anywhere, its now or never Paul, we can’t be caught either, we’ll get him later, lets go for now”

 

 

Paul who seemed to be their leader cursed before they walked reluctantly towards the back exist, Gabriel who was watching them even in the darkness watch them leave through the back exist, he knew he had to move carefully due to the heavy weapon with them.

 

 

He made sure they were out through the door before coming out of hiding and keenly followed them. The security guard who had stationed himself at the back exist in an attempt to enter the flats with his gun sh00t when he saw them coming out behind the back door.

 

He continued shooting while they take cover, engaging in gun battle.

 

 

“who the f**k is that?” Paul shouted while they faced their attacker

 

 

“how the hell I’m I supposed to know that? I told you we should leave earlier, didn’t I? this wouldn’t have happened if you had listened”

 

 

“shut the crap off and let’s get out of here first” he shouted back before a bullet pierced pass his left ear luckily for him. He dodge back and remained into hiding immediately.

 

 

“we’ll leave at the count of three”

 

 

“leave where? what do you mean leave?”

 

“we’ll leave through that fence”

 

“you mean we’ll jump over that fence?”

 

“shut up and fire, 1, 2, 3 now”

 

they came out from hiding and sh00t randomly while the security guard take cover instantly. They used the opportunity immediately and ran to jump over the fence but a bullet hit one of them and he fell backwards into the building.

Location: Secret Base

 

 

Kingsley heard sounds of footstep coming towards his direction and raised his head, he could see from afar Don and some of the brothers coming fast towards him, he sense the angry look on their boss and knows that entails danger. Soon they got to the spot he was, Don stared keenly at him before speaking.

 

 

“Something occurred yesterday, one of Chief Garub’s son was involve in some kind of sh*t and a friend of he’s was captured” Don said and stretched a picture for him to have.

 

 

“now is your chance to redeem your act of betrayer, I want that person dead in two days” Don said and turned towards one of the brothers.

 

 

“give him every information he needs and help him strike” he added and turned back to Kingsley,

 

 

 

“its up to you now Kingsley, I want a clean job” Don pointed out and turned to leave without another words.

 

 

 

Kingsley heaved a sigh watching him leave along with some brothers , he stared at the picture he was given, its a man dressed in a black suit .

 

 

 

“I’m I doing this again Kingsley” he said silently to himself. something about him has changed, he had promised himself never to ki*ll anymore or shed any blood. He knew most of whom they’ve killed are innocent people that someone wants cleared and now he’s been ordered against that determination, he will also be tamed a betrayer if he fails to do what he was told. He’s mind drifted in seconds, back at Jane, wondering the state she might probably be presently, she must have been shocked.

 

 

He couldn’t place a call to her because he knew it’s dangerous, but plan to call her after he leave the base for the Operation he has been given. He made a glance at the picture again, making up his mind to do this last killing, he knew making enemy with the K’s is deadly and dangerous..

10:10am Police Headquarters

 

Gabriel and the security guard with some of the neighbors came out of the police headquarters surprised and discussing about the scenario that happened the other night.

 

 

The last guy who was shot had been arrested and now on police custody.

 

 

 

The agent moved a bit away from his neighbors, he took out his tablet to check a notification, he had seen worst of what his neighbors are surprised and talking about since yesterday, he has been severally on different spot of death and gun attacks, he turned and smiled, though they never knew he was an agent.

 

 

Soon, a car zoomed in and parked swiftly , the driver came out slowly and close the door. Gabriel widened his brow and stared at her afar,”Wow, what a day” he uttered silently to himself before moving towards her direction.

 

 

“Good morning Ma’am” he greeted.

 

Jane turned and greeted back, “Good morning” she replied and squinted her eyes. “please have we met before?”

 

 

“yes madam, back in Ghana” he replied.

 

 

she widened her brow and stared at him, “please where in Ghana?”

 

 

“first at a shopping mall and at your place, I actually came to interview you then during a bank robbery incident at CIA bank in Ghana” he replied while Jane deliberate, she stared at him more seconds and paused to think.

 

 

“oh yes its true” she exclaimed, finally remembering. ”I can fully remember, I’m sorry I didn’t attend to you politely then”

 

“oh its okay madam, I can fully understand, by the way I heard the news, I’m sorry about your kidnapped friend, its must have seriously dawn on you”

 

 

 

 

 

 

“I’m confused, its been weeks already and the police haven’t show case anything yet, am getting frustrated”

 

 

“I know how you feel and I’m sure the police are doing their best, they are going to get the criminals arrested and your friend will be rescued soon, trust me and lets give them chance to do their job but let me ask you this. After the lawyer was killed, what triggered between the criminals and your friend?”

 

 

“that’s the same question the police keep asking all the time, there wasn’t anything and that bothers me so much, they forcefully took him away with them”.

 

 

 

She knew she lied, and that was her response to the police, yes she wanted Kingsley to be rescued but not to be tamed with them, how could she tell them about his involvement? He will be tamed as one of them, she’s confused, wondering the intense feeling she has for this man that had Captured her heart.

 

 

The agent turned back to see his neighbors coming towards them and turned back to face her. he still had some questions to ask but there seems to be no time.

 

 

“can I have your contact address or probably your B. Card?”

 

 

“of course” she replied and turned to open her car, she took out her business card and stretched it for him to have.

 

 

“I’ll give you a call then, thanks”

 

 

“alright”
