Blaze's POV
Olivia White, OLIVIA FUCKING WHITE.
UK's highest paid model, born in London, is an assassin, a fucking assassin
How? I remember we were both small when we met and I even asked dad if her family was a part of the underworld in anyway and I clearly remember him saying no, then how?
I was so lost thinking about her I didn't realize Asher was yelling at me
"BLAZE YOU DEAF DICK" he yelled
I immediately got out of my trance and glared at him angrily
"Do not, and I mean DO NOT EVER yell at me again Asher" I said calmly but firmly
Calm before the storm
"Okay, if you could just think of how we could get out of this apartment I'd stop yelling at you" he said
"Ash if I had any fucking clue how to, we wouldn't be here anymore besides if either of us move we loose our skins so I suggest you shut the fuck up and let me think" I said
Asher left a frustrated grown and then all three of us started looking around, her apartment or their apartment wasn't very big or anything which is confusing considering both of them earn enough to stay in a bigger house.
This apartment is small and cozy? Yea cozy we were tied up in the living room which was big to fit atleast 10 people and boy, wasn't it decorated, way too much, too much for my liking
Why do you care ass
I don't it's just...too...decorated...and annoying
Sure
There was a black couch at the left and a little free space next to it where we were tied and to our right was a bean bag and...skateboard? Yes that's a skateboard
Wow she skates
Next to it was the way to the balcony and a small table on which there was a fish tank.
Right in front of us was a little passage which was towards the entry and exit door and before it there were two doors on the left and right side which I'm assuming are their rooms.
All the walls were peach in color, the lightest shade of peach on which there were pictures of her and her friend, few family pictures, pictures of them with their friends and few individual pictures of both of them, they were Polaroids if we're being precise.
There was neon light thing which said 'boss bitches' hung on the right wall above the fish tank.
Other than that there were few weird aesthetic things hung on the wall but one thing caught my eye.
There was a showpiece hung on the wall, two small rhino horns poking outwards which had thorns around them, they weren't really big or anything, medium sized.
Why would they put up weird horn kind of things on the wall with thorns on them that's so fucking dum- WAIT
Why do those thorns seem like daggers stuck from the inside? their ends don't exactly look like horns.
I started staring at them carefully and noticed all those thorns were daggers because their ends were a little curvy
(thisiselenatrying thenks for this😘)
she put daggers on the wall no normal person could figure out those were daggers, wow.
"Shawn do you see the daggers on the wall?" I asked pointing towards the wall
He saw the show piece and was about to say when he noticed something
"She did not stick the daggers from inside, did she?" he asked
"That's it, we need to reach till there" I said
"Yes and burn our skin in the process, let's do this" Asher said, sarcastically.
I ignored him and tried moving out of the ropes, the burning sensation slowly kicked in, I got a little further but the burning got unbearable so I couldn't move more.
"Plan B, boss? " Asher asked
I was about to answer when I saw the sun had begun to set
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. They can't know
"Where the fuck are Stacey and Jace? we have to get out of here before the sun sets" I stated
"What's after sunset?" Shawn asked
Wish I could tell you
"None your business, we just have to" I said, calmly
Shawn sighed and we again started looking around for something, anything.
We didn't find anything, yes the American mob was stuck in an apartment helpless
Exactly why I like to be in power
The sun had almost set and the room was getting darker and we were far away from the light buttons
Breathe. It's fine
I kept telling myself as the room got darker and darker.
My Nyctophobia was kicking in, it was getting hard to breathe
It's okay she'll be back anytime now
After few minutes the room had gotten dark entirely and with each passing second it was becoming harder for me to breath, I couldn't show it as Asher and Shawn were with me and they didn't know
They should never know, no one should
I could feel it taking over my brain, I could feel them coming back
No please no, not now please
Thankfully it was dark so Shawn and Asher couldn't see my face, I was terrified by now
Go away please
It was coming back, it's surrounding me again, I was at the verge of screaming when I heard the door open and the lights were switched on
Finally
I looked up and saw her she was looking at me quizzically
Why?
I realized
Your face, it shows fear
I immediately changed my emotion and got back to the cold face.
She slowly walked towards me and bent down to my level and said
"So, Mr. Knight are we ready?" she asked
I didn't answer her and just gave her my cold glare
"You might be all intimidating and cold but that doesn't scare me mafiso, try something better" she said, boringly
Where the fuck are Jace and Stacey?
"Okay, looks like the mob doesn't like easy stuff so now we try the torturous stuff" she said getting up.
She went behind me
"Ooh, looks like you tried wriggling out but failed miserably, big bug" she said
I could feel her getting on her knees, she didn't do anything for 2 minutes
What is she up to?
Before I could think further I felt a burning sensation on my wrists
Fuck no
I started groaning because of the pain
"C'mon bug don't make me torture you more I'm in a good mood today, just give me the other half of the map and we both go our separate ways" she said
"I have no fucking clue about what map you're talking, you can torture me all you want but my answer will remain the same" she said
"Really? How about you tell me what you kept in that bigass safe space you have then?" she asked
"None of your business bitch, leave me" I hissed
"Tch tch tch, have you forgotten? You are in no position to call me a bitch?" she whispered in my ear
She kept rubbing the ropes on my wrists and my skin kept burning while I tried my best to only groan and not give her a reaction
"Don't forget who you are and who I am, I'm the American mafia and you're just an assassin" I said
"Oh, my bad, sorry bug I thought I was a snail and you were an eagle, now cut the crap and tell me where the map is" she asked
"Look, we don't know what you're talking about so leave us this instant because trust me there is an entire mafia out there looking for us to get out and you to kill, so better-" Shawn was cut off
I saw her friend pulling Shawn by the jaw and make him look straight towards her
What's with these women and jaw pulling
"Listen jackass, do not open your mouth unless we ask you to" she threatened Shawn
"Oh yea? How about you free my hands and I'll shown you what I can do with a gun in my hand" Shawn said, angrily
"I dare you to, go ahead, free yourself" she smirked
"Now if we're done with the 'lets scare them then they'll let us go' part I suggest you start talking because trust me your threatening didn't have any effect on us so-" she was cut
Gunshot
Fucking finally
I saw her coming in the front
"Game on, Shadow" I said and FINALLY smirked.
Honestly the start of this chap was a lil boring to me but okay, also I wonder what exactly was getting into blaze's mind when the room got darker👀
