Two days
"you are no longer fighting alone."
Waking up in Blaze's strong arms was a feeling i cannot express how amazing it is. I feel safe, loved, protected and complete. I guess you could say my mind was still in that trance it gets in when it is beginning to wake up. where all the pain and suffering is forgotten and your mind is only focused on your dreams and happiness.
The soft kisses Blaze was trailing across my neck was all my mind needed to be able to remember all of the past events of what has happened. It was also a wake up call for my body to remind of the agony I was in. "Good morning princess." Blazed whispered huskily. Still sounding like he was just waking up himself.
"Good morning." I turn around to face him and let my finger trace his jawline. My eyebrows furrowed as thoughts started to pile into my mind like a ginormous title wave.
How am I going to win this fight?
How am I going to be able to have the love of my life and family?
How am I going to win?
"What are you thinking about princess." He hummed softly while playing with my hair. I looked at him with conflict. How could he ask me such a ridiculous question? Has he forgotten the mess that we are in? So much blood is about to be shed and I have no idea whose blood it is going to be.
"Ange-."
I shot up out of bed and wrapped a blanket around me as i proceeded to get up. Sitting around here and waiting to heal is just a death wish. Boss is no doubt on his way and probably already has a plan on how he is going to win.
I need to come up with my own plan
"Angelina, I know what you are thinking." He stood behind me, letting his body pressed against me. It gave me some comfort no doubt. But the ragging anxiety and thoughts are not going to ease until I start planning my next move.
"We need to make a plan."
"We will." He rubs my arms up and down and i cant help but roll my eyes and turn to face him.
"Blaze don't be stupid. You and I both know that laying in bed is doing nothing. Boss is probably coming right now as we are speaking." His eyes looked down at me and they looked so full of so many emotions. My heart pondered in my chest as his hand started to caress my cheek. The amount of power this man had over me was incredible.
"Your boss was my step fathers best friend. They were brothers to each other and fought every battle together. When I came along, your boss taught me everything just like how he has taught you. But as you know how the story goes. He killed every bit of joy, happiness and light within me" His fingers stopped and he paused. "Just like you do, I know this man and I know what he is capable of. Planning a battle against him like this, isn't going to work. We need to let him make the first move and make him think he has the advantage here. We need him to overlook us so then we can use that against him." He places a soft kiss on my forehead.
"Please just trust me princess." I nod my head weakly and wrap my arms around him.
"I love you." His grip around me tightens and I could feel his body tense.
Blaze was scared
"I love you too."
Blaze was just as petrified as I was because in all of this madness he had revenge, justice and something to lose as well. There was so much hanging in the air that all of us were finding it impossible to breathe. I am just thankful that he is here. That my soulmate, my everything was here beside me and had the same burning fire to fight as I did. Me and blaze were a team now. The two most deadly assassins in the world are now teamed up and have a small army behind them. If anything is going to come into our way, well.
Let's just say I feel sorry for them.
"Do you want to join me for a quick bath?"
The corner of his lips lifted into a devilish smirk and in just a second he had pulled the blanket from me and had picked me up. I let my arms and legs wrap around him as he stalked into the bathroom. Like a predator on a mission which made my body ache with fire and passion.
My lips trailed and kissed his skin eagerly as I was desperate to be consumed and connected with him. every sparing second that was passing was just teasing me further. He placed me down on the countertop and placed a finger under my chin. My desire was growing by the second which only made me want to whine and beg for him. But Blaze seemed like he was enjoying this control and he seemed like he was ready to make this slower and more like torture.
Bastard
His lips brushed against my earlobe as he smoothly placed his hand onto my inner thigh. "I would love a bath, my princess."
Me and Blaze were like hot burning lava in a volcano. Our fire for each other was burning stronger than ever for each other. Every touch, every sound and every taste of each other makes our fire feel like its going to erupt in any second.
Knock knock
Blaze rolled his eyes as he buttoned his shirt up and I could not help but giggle as I zipped my jacket. "Who is it?" He growled.
"well , well, well." Cole sang as he, Simon, Madeline and Jace piled into the room looking at us with goofy smiles. "If it isn't for the love birds." Simon snickers and jace gave us both a big wink.
"What do you want?" Blaze huffed.
"Well." Simon started. "Why you both have been sucking each other's faces and keeping everyone up during the night. We received a message this early morning from the one and truly." Both of our eyes widened and rushed past them.
"Why didn't you come and tell us sooner." I yelled at them. Pure outrage was swarming through me and it was swarming through Blaze as well. Because now everyone was coming out of their dorms hearing Blaze's thunder.
"Look we would have woken you up and gotten you here but there was no need to rush because look. We walked into the dinning are and there was a corpse lying onto one of the tables.
"It's one of the seniors that helped us get out." Jace informed me.
I nodded and walked closer to the body only noticing now that there was a carved message into his back of a message for me and blaze.
Hello dear kids
I must say to my wife that I was a little disappointed that you wanted to get away from me. But we can sort that out when we meet again and if you are wondering where that is. That will be at the docks, in two days time at 10am.
Don't be late
"He knows where we are."
The room around us was silent and I could see my family and other warriors walk into the room. When they saw the body some had fear written on their faces and some had nothing. Some were probably trying to mask their fear because they know fear is weakness.
And we cant have any more weaknesses.
"If he was going to do anything he would have done it by now." Blaze stated as a matter of fact.
"But it doesn't change the fact that no one here is safe." I looked to my family but more specifically to the weakest links. Mum, my aunts, my cousins, my grandparents and Rose. this is the time... this is the moment i have been waiting for in the past 8 years. To fight.
I cleared my voice and then looked around me. "Listen everyone." I made sure I got everyone's attention before continuing. "In two days we will be going to war. Some will die and some will live and I cannot guarantee who that will be. So those who are weak or who cannot for whatever reason fight, we will send you somewhere safe for the time being until the war is done. But those of you who are willing to fight and stand by me then you must speak now. Because this battle isn't just about killing the boss, tony or their spawns. But it is about seeking justice, saving the innocent and making sure no life is spared.Because this must all end and I will make sure that is done while I am still here on this goddamn earth."
It's time to taint my hands with the blood of justice
Author note:
Hello everyone sorry for the very late chapter. Let's just say my life has been very hectic since the last chapter. I have graduated school, gotten jobs, broken up with irrelevant boyfriends and this book was just not my priority. But I have to say the biggest this that putting me off writing was negative comments. I am always up for constructive criticism but rude ones are not appreciated or welcomed. I have deleted many and it has made me not want to write or finish this book. It has even at one stage made me want to delete it. So please keep positive and like they say. If you nothing nice to say then don't say anything at all.
