This is the night. Apparently, my tracker was last spotted at their warehouse seconds before it was destroyed.
“Hunter, we’re gonna have some company.” I spoke over the speaker.
“Meaning.”
“Dante and his men are meeting the Wolf today.”
“The heck why today of all days”
“They found the tracker so they know that we are coming.”
“I’ll go in first.” I hopped on the car then the pole and went to the very top before jumping on the balcony. I used my hair clip to open the lock. I ended up in a room with 2 security guards. I kicked one of them on their heads from behind and knocked the other dead before he could react.
I tiptoed down the hall then went into a room which led to a secret elevator. Underground was quiet. Not what I imagined. While searching, I heard noises coming from a particular room. It sounded like the people were leaving. I quickly hid at the side of the wall. When I was sure they all left, I went into the room and began searching the room for a documentary of people. While searching, I saw a stack of papers at the very top of the shelf. I tried to grab it but I was too short.
“Come on, come on.” I jumped but no hope.
“What’s going on over there?” Alex said.
“I can’t reach it.” I pouted.
“I knew I should have followed you.”
“Hey, I am capable.” I stood on a stool and tiptoed then grabbed the papers and scrolled through them.
The hell.
“What did you find?”
“Weird crazy stuff. Really weird crazy stuff.” Not what I was expecting.
“Huntress, some people spotted you and are coming in less than 3 minutes.” I can work with that.
“Shoot, okay um.” I quickly snapped the pictures and files and placed them back in order. I kept the stool back to its original spot. I was returning the documents when I saw a photo of someone so familiar it was as if I knew but didn’t know the person. I brought it out and was about to take a closer look when I heard a commotion outside. I quickly took a pic and placed it inside. As soon as I was behind the door it opened. I hid my gun at the back of the man’ head and fled. I ran to the elevator with the five men hot on my tail.
I smashed the button but it opened and a very familiar man came to my view.
Chris. What the F
I was so busy thinking about the situation in front of me that I didn’t notice the men already caught up with me. One seized both of my hands and the other gripped my hair.
“What is going on?” the man’s voice boomed. Still very familiar.
“Boss, this girl broke into your office but we don't know where she came from.” the man who had seized my hands said.
So he is the leader of ‘The Wolves’.
“Huntress what the freak is going on there.”
“Huntress.”
“Let’s go in.”
Seconds later, there were sounds of gunshots down the hall.
The men were distracted by it and I kicked him in the face. He lost his grip and I ran, The wolf followed with a gun. I ran as fast as I could but I couldn’t get rid of him. I stopped at a dead end. It was surrender or jump down the stairs.\
He was about to grab me but I jumped then caught a pillar with my free hand. I landed on another floor and entered a room full of old, sweaty, stinky men gambling. I grabbed a free chair and threw it at the window, shattering it to pieces. I jumped and landed smoothly on the grass. I took two turns and a black car caught up to me.
“Get in,” Alex said.
He hit the gas hard and we fled.
“You’ve been oddly quiet. Are you okay?”
“Huh, yeah”
“Come on, I know something is bothering you.” I stayed silent.
“Whenever you’re ready I’m here okay.” he pats my head and unlocks the door.
We got out of the car and into the building.
Lorenzo gave me the death stare as soon as I got into his office.
“I heard the mission failed.” his voice rising, his eyes twitching.
Alex was about to speak but I quickly interjected. “The mission did not fail.” I handed him the pictures of the documents. “Yes the mission was ambushed, but we were still able to do the job. That’s not all yet.” I gave him a smile but it didn’t touch my cheeks.
He stared at me with an unreadable expression on his face. “You have 2 months to achieve this or else..” there was a short pause. “You know the consequences.”
Two months was a very short time. What a heartless man. But if I don't finish this, my family’s life is at stake.
“Yes sir”

It was 5:15pm when I got home. I took off my clothes and slept in my undies.

“My gosh, you look terrible.” Celine says. “Did you sleep at all yesterday?” concern evident in her voice.
“Yes and I am fine, okay.” I got back to cleaning Dante’s room. “Go back to your work, Dante will be here soon and we won't have him coming back to a dirty house.” Even though there’s nothing to clean.
“Ok, call if you need help.” I finished scrubbing, sweeping and mopping the floors, I dropped the materials back into the trolley. On my way out, my head felt dizzy and I dropped to the ground darkness consuming me.
