"Travis, what the heck are you doing?!" she roared at him in anger as she rushed to where Emma lay motionless. She turned Emma over and checked his pulse, seeing he was okay, she turned to him. "What was that for?!"
"I was told to capture and detain suspect Jenny. Stay out of this!" Travis walked over only to come to a halt when Jenny glared at him menacingly.
"No, you stay out of this, you hurt Emma and you tell me to stay out!"
"We'll confirm his identity and then let you talk to him. Travis spoke emotionlessly controlling the way he replied to Jenny, she seemed like she was to attack if he made a wrong move on her and with that, he moved towards her sneakily to take a hold of Emma.
"You move another step from where you are and I swear I'll break your bones!" she growled as she shielded Emma's unconscious body. Travis was taken back for a moment that he halted trying to control, his facial expression as he was surprised at her tone. 'how can a woman give off such a dangerous vibe!!'
In a distance, six men, four in black suits and the other two in casual outfits approached the scene. James held a food basket and had dark shades dressed in blue ripped jeans and black t-shirt whereas Jason was in grey office pants and blue shirt with folded sleeve and two top buttons undone. He looked hot!
"Whoa whoa whoa, guys cool!" James spoke and rushed to Jenny's side with a lunch box in hand, he looked at the unconscious guy and back at Jenny trying to understand the situation, holding her back from her attack stance. "What's wrong baby girl?" he asked worriedly as he glared at Travis.
"Ask him!" Jenny spoke through clenched teeth her gaze hardening when she saw the nonchalant attitude of Travis.
"Jenny!" Jason spoke and she finally snapped to where he stood, recognising his presence. She froze!! So hot!! That muscled chest peeping through the unbuttoned area, if only she had the luxury to peep in, his arm veins, strong and firm flexing and his bewitching gaze, it undid her. Behind him were four other robust men in black suits.
She snapped back from her daydream and looked at him. "What's going on?!"
"We'll talk things through but as of now, let's clear the premises. We don't want to attract attention."
The four men came at his signal and took Emma's unconscious body out. "I'm coming along!" Jenny spoke as she started to follow from behind only to be held back by a warm grip.
Looking back at Jason, she frowned at him questioningly. "No Jenny, you stay here and finish with your classes. Mike will come pick you and bring you to this guy but after we have finished our investigation." He spoke and it seemed there was going to be no discussion on this matter, he took the basket from James and shoved it in her hands. "It's breakfast and lunch, James prepared this." He looked back in her eyes and she shyed away.
"Jason...I.."
"Relax, ok!"
Recollecting herself, she looked back in his eyes firmly. "Fine, but if I find a single bruise on him,....."
"I can't assure that Jenny." He spoke truthfully.
"Till then." She murmured grumpily and escaped the scene. Her heart was beating crazily like it would escape her ribcage and it took all her will power to hold back the blush that was soon gracing her face in Jason's presence. "I really hate that ice berg, the fact that I'm defensless aganist him is so annoying!!" she growled as she stomped away in a rush.
This left Jason with a small tender smile that graced his face.
"I knew you like her!!" James grinned only to be smacked on the back of his head. "Hey!!!!" James glared and grumbled irritably and followed Jason.
THE BASE
Emma stirred and groaned in pain, he opened his eyes and looked around the place he was and in himself. He was chained up aganist the wall both arms and legs. "Bastards!!" he cursed.
"You're awake!" a voice spoke and Emma looked that way, it was Travis.
"You!!!" It was the guy that had knocked him out.
"I'll be gentle if you don't waste my time. I want you to speak and you'll do that!" Travis ordered with his cold emotionless voice.
"Are you the boss?!" Emma asked as he sized up Travis. cHe seems to be an underdog,Tsk'
"Question 1 Who do you work for?!"
"I'd be glad if you removed these chains from me. We can talk like men." Emma suggested with a harmless smile despite degrading Travis with his gaze. 'He had just caught me off guard!!'
"Wrong answer!" And the next thing was electricity zapping Emma, leaving his hair in spikes and smoke coming from it. He shook viciously as the current rocked itself in him.
Emma huffed and puffed trying to regain himself. 'How many volts did this idiot use on me?!' He looked up and glared at Travis.
"Question 2 Why are you following Miss Jenny around?!"
"Your just an underdog! And I don't answer to underdogs, be it your boss!" Another current ran through him and the sound of chains clattering and electricity zapping rang out in the torture room.
"Where's Travis?!" James asked as soon as he reached the base. His men bowed at him and Jason who walked from behind lazily.
"The torture room with the Emma guy." Mike answered uninterested as he chewed his gum.
"Why there?!" Jason asked and slightly frowned.
The others looked at him like he'd grown a second head as if saying to torture him duh! "I need and audience with him." Jason went after giving his order. They may not have understood him but he had a good eye for talent and the way that guy managed to maneuver his way and try to escape him, he knew, he was good.
Soon, the spiked haired Emma was presented before Jason with handcuffs on his wrists. "Uncuff him!" He ordered and the man named Kim did as he had been told only to fall back after a punch landed on his nose, leaving him bleeding. "That was a wrong move!" Emma spoke smugly as massaged his wrists with irritation written allover his face, he set his hair back making sure he is neat. He found himself a seat across Jason and organised his clothes.
"Who are you youngman?" Emma asked once he was comfortable. "You better make sure you answers please me, I hate it when people provoke me. You also had your men kidnap me?!"
"No."
"What?!" Emma asked confused.
"You answer me!"
His tone made Emma flinch back a little. His voice is authoritative! Who could he be? I have no recollection of his profile!'
"Are you going to speak?"
It's better to check him out first. "How about this, you beat me, I answer your question, if I beat you,.....you answer my questions?"
"What makes you thinks you can beat me?"
Emma immedistely stood up from his seat, at a speed undetectable by a normal human, he attacked Jason who manage to follow his everystep from the corner of his eye. This alarmed Emma but he chose to take another tactic but he still noticed, the man before him, who had not even stood from his seat managed to track his next move. Shit!
"Are you going to answer or are you going to keep trying?!" Jason asked lazily as he sipped his drink.
Giving up, Emma, walked back to his seat, his ego shitted on and pride trumpled over. "Who are you?"
"I ask! You answer!" Jason spoke and and placed his drink down on the table, interlaced his fingers and leaned back in his seat. "Why are you following Miss Jenny around?"
"To protect her!"
"Who sent you?"
"I can't answer that!"
"Who exactly is Jenny?"
"I can't answer that either!"
"How are you connected to her?"
"We grew up together."
"I see."
"I have a few questions for myself. May I ask?" Emma decided to ask. This guy seemed like the cool type and only dangerous when provoked.
"It's only fair."
"Who are you?"
"A guardian."
"Guardian?!" Emma looked on confused, relieved and surprised. All Jenny's guardians had been hunted down and killed leaving her to fend for herself, and I knew all her guardians. Perhaps, did Master leave a secret guardian who was in the shadows?! He pondered. That makes sense! Hahaha, Jenny still has another guardian!! Wow!! Master you're extraordinary!!' Emma had to prevent himself from jumping up in joy. No wonder this guy is so extraordinary and his aura is exact like that of master though he holds his personal charm!
"Your her guardian." Emma spoke again for confirmation and Jason nodded affirmative. "We are on the same page!"
You could say so, bit I have my eyes on you. Also, improve your software, it's a child's play!" Jason advised and stood from his seat to go attend to other issues. Once outside, he met his pensive employees. Why did you let him join us?! James spoke clearly dissatisfied. The others had the same question plastered on their faces.
"Initiate him." was all he said and left the evilly grinning crew nodding in satisfaction. Atleast he didn't just let him off like that!
Emma, walked out of the room where he was with the man he never got to know his name and was welcomed by menacingly growling men.
You need to go through initiation. Travis spoke as he cracked his neck stretching. All the others scanned the new member skeptically and prepred to beat the shit out of him. Emma sighed helpessly as he looked at the ocean of men.
He was going to need a body massage right after!!!
Lots of love from litto-ways ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
