Dimitri's POV
There is nothing worse than riding the high of an orgasm and then being brought down by someone catching you. I had never in my life been so happy for a fucking door. In a flash I was off of Rose putting on my underwear and trying to figure out what to do. There was no way we could get caught. But there was no doubt in my mind that Victor did not know what was going on behind Rose's door.
Before I could come up with a plan, a very clumsy Adrian came crashing into the bedroom, somewhat quietly. What confused me the most was the fact that he was not alone. Rose squeaked loudly as Adrain shoved a half naked man onto her and started to pull me out the window as the door to Rose's bedroom was nearly crashed through. Confusion rang through me for a few more seconds until I noticed what he had just done.
As we crashed into the bushes below Rose's window, I was once again thankful for Adrian. He may have thought at times he was a bad assassins, but he was quick to act when he saw something wrong. He never received the credit that was due. He was smart, and fast, and even though he always hated what he was doing he had always been there for me. It was an odd bond between the two of us but I was certain nothing would break it. I would do the same for him in an instant.
"What the fuck is wrong with you, I thought you two were going to keep away from each other?" Adrian spun around as I let the cool night calm me.
"We tried." He looked me up and down and huffed out loudly before continuing to lead me somewhere.
"Well Christian is back and you're not going to like this." I followed now at a quicker pace as he continued to walk, every few minutes looking back to see if he was being followed.
"What are you talking about?" Long forgotten was my nearly naked state as I tried to figure out what I would not like. If Christian was back this was a good thing, unless.
"I know what you're thinking it. And its even worse." My eyes widened as we made it to the small shed that lined the edge of the property.
I looked between the shed and Adrian, sparing one last glance to the mansion, hoping Rose was fairing well. I knew what the shed was. It had been Christians since the moment we had moved into this place. In the past he spent countless hours here, planning, building. It seemed harmless but I knew better. This was Christian from the start. I lunged towards the door opening it and immediately spotting Christian.
"What are you doing?" He turned around eyeing us closely as he shook his head at my near nakedness. "Do you need something?"
"Whats going on?" He eyed me up and down but turned back to work on whatever it was he was making.
"Victor asked me to make him something." He did not even spare me a glance this time, instead he hammered away loudly and focused on his task at hand. Something was wrong, very wrong.
"Since when do you do that?" Adrian grabbed my arms whispering a soft "Don't" but I had to make sure.
"Since its our duty to do as told." He turned in his seat his icy blue eyes taking me in.
With all my might I simply nodded and walked out the door. Rose may have passed her test, but Christian had not. I thought he would have no problem fooling Victor, again I had been proven wrong. Whatever Victor had done to him, had been the same as what he had done to the rest of us at the beginning. There was nothing to do but play along with his sick and twisted game.
It was going to make our mission now harder to accomplish, though in no way impossible. I cringed internally thinking about the measures we would have to go through to make sure nothing ever leaked to Victor. Christian would now turn on us with no second thoughts about it.
"What are we going to do?" Adrian had caught up with me, and one look at him told me of the fear that was threatening to over take him.
"We continue on as planned."
"But Christian..." I cut him off before he could finish.
"Is gone for now, and we have to treat him as if he is everyone else in the godforsaken place." Adrian frowned stopping me mid-stride.
"We can't just leave him like this." His emerald eyes bore into mine and I sighed.
"Look Adrian there is nothing we can do about this now. We say anything to him and he will turn us in. We just have to work around this until I, until we, can figure something out. The mission continues, if we stop now then everything has been for nothing. And I for one am not willing to give up."
"I guess you're right, but what now?"
"Well, if Christian's building is any hint, Victor is about to send us after someone." Adrian nodded not quite following. "There are people we need to find, where ever he sends us we find who we need." I started walking back trying to figure out how to sneak back in.
"And then what?" I turned to Adrian a smirk making its way onto my lips.
"We do what we do best." He still stared confused, making me smirk even wider. "We kill them."
Three Days Later...
"I'm going in." I growled loudly before yanking Rose back to the position she had been in before.
Thankfully Victor had gone into her room only to leave straight away. He had no problem with her rolling around the sheets with his little minion Reed. I was afraid he would rat us out, but according to Adrian the boy did whatever he was told. And Adrian had threatened him within an inch of his life. So far he had said nothing. Though his constant staring at my woman was starting to test me.
"You will stay." Her brown eyes bore holes into me, but I met her stare head on.
The woman was stubborn as could be, and right now we did not need this. As a group of four we hunted and destroyed a target rather well. We would stick to a plan and execute our part like machines. As individuals we did even better. There were no distractions, and we could focus on what we wanted. As a pair, we never faired as well. As a pair we could argue and conflict more about how we wanted things done. It was why we were never intended to do this, but desperate times called for desperate measures.
Adrian had left with Christian to do Victor's dirty work. I was actually surprised Christian had not questioned why Rose and I were not going. He bought our excuse of going to find out more about the man Victor wanted killed, so we could hand over even more information to Victor. I planned on doing this, but the job had already been done. By a sad and overly depressed Lissa.
"You can't tell me what to do." Rose crossed her arms over her breasts, causing them to slightly spill over her tight shirt.
"That's not going work, especially with that horrid green hair." I turned around barely containing the smile on my face.
"Do you seriously not think sending me in, looking like this won't get that guy to come out?" I turned around my features softening as I watched her study herself.
"I have no doubt in my mind that he would fall prey to you, but you can't tell me the thought of hunting his ass down, and making him jump at his own shadow doesn't appeal to you.?"
"I guess it could be fun." She shrugged, this time looking a tad bit happier about the plan. "So where do we start?"
"We follow, make him paranoid." Without another word we headed west down a street, staying to the shadows.
Our target was Michael Lazar. There did not seem to be anything special about him, but Sydney had found out that he worked rather closely with Victor at one point in time. She believed in high confidence that they still worked together. But something had happened and now they had to keep the interactions to a minimum. Rose and I were going to find out why, no matter what had to be done.
We followed dear old Michael for a few blocks before his paranoia started to kick in. He would glance back every few few, but never spotted us. His close guards continued to ask him what was wrong, but they too could not spot any danger. If they only knew what they were in for. Adrian made people kill themselves, Christian burned them alive. Those two fates would be better than what Rose and I had planned. No we liked our torture, and we would skin this mother fucker alive.
Rose darted across the street unnoticed as I continued to follow the men back to their home. It was a small apartment, but it held all the luxuries in the world. Rose and I had visited it earlier, making sure to move just enough around that Michael would notice as he walked through the door. The only thing would be, that when he noticed it would be too late.
The descend up the stairs was slow as the guards too now felt like they were being followed, but I hid myself better than any shadow could. Finally giving up they opened the front door to the apartment and I made my move just as a loud gasp left our targets lips. He had noticed the difference in his place a lot faster than I thought he would, but that did not matter.
Quickly the guards went to retreat from the apartment but I was already behind them. The first guard went down without even putting up a fight, my gun hitting the back of his head as the second came towards me. The second guard was not going to go down as easy though. At least I knew Rose had Michael and he was not going to be going anywhere.
My fist cocked backwards and straight into the guards face. I had to give the man some credit the hit was hard but he barely even reacted. Instead he took the time while I prepared my next move to punch me, hitting me square in the jaw. Only thing was this fueled the anger inside of me. No one hit me and got away with it.
I pushed against him with all my force as I lunged towards him, effectively bringing him back into the apartment. I needed us out of the hall, and away from prying ears. My foot grabbed the door and in one movement I had the door closed and the man in a headlock. He put up a hell of a fight but it was not enough. I also made sure to give him a few knees to his kidneys which made the process that much easier. I looked up as he struggled to see Rose had corned Michael and was now taunting him with her ever growing knife collection.
As soon as I felt the guard go slack in my arms I grabbed him threw him next to his dear friend. I did not normally kill unless I had to but this was no time to spare anyone. Without giving it a second thought I pulled out my glock and shot them both in the temple. The gun going off caught the attention of Michael Lazar, giving Rose the opening she had been looking for.
I watched in awe as her wrist flicked smoothly and a thin red line started to appear on the mans face. I smiled proud of my woman, and the skills she possessed. She looked sexy as hell mid kill. And this session was just getting started.
"Love don't play with your food." She turned my way a smirk across her luscious lips.
Between the two of us we roughly tied the man to the chair Rose had set up for us. It was one of my personal favorites. Uncomfortable, metal, and deadly. Stepping back looking at this man I knew what I had to do, but all I wanted to do was kill him.
"Now you can probably imagine why we are here." I started to pace before the man, as he watched my every move.
"We can do this the hard way, or the slightly easier, less painful way." Rose had stepped in her face inches from his face.
"You're never going to get what you want out of this. Everything is set, everything is going according to plan." His voice, if I was not mistaken, almost held a tone of amusement, something that confused me.
"What plan?" He laughed loudly and Rose pulled out her knife again this time stabbing him in the chest, no where fatal, but painful nonetheless.
"He gets what he wants, and goes through any and all measures to get what he wants." He voice was slightly gargled, but I knew he was talking about Victor.
"What did he get?" I moved in closer my fingers touching the knife still in his chest. The action causing him to flinch.
"He has you all, though it seems some of you have gone astray. Either way, in the end you will lose everything." My fingers pushed against the knife a little harder and he let out a loud whimper.
"Why did he take us?" Michael's grey eyes met mine and I could not help but think I recognized them from somewhere.
"He took everything from me, and I was willingly helping him. I gave him everything he ever asked for and still in his house my daughter lives. In his house my son, works for him. There is no stopping him. SO you might as well join him. His plan is flawless." His grey widened and I heard Rose behind me.
"Avery. She's your daughter? You did this to her?" He laughed now, the sound almost bouncing off the walls.
"She was a pain in the ass anyways, just like he mother. Might as well get some use out of the girl." Normally something like this would not bother me, but now it made me sick.
How could a father willingly give up his daughter to a man like Victor. How cold and disloyal did a man have to be to just give Victor what he wanted. I looked the man over again my fist coming in contact with his cheek before I could stop it. He deserved that and so much more. This man was sick.
"What did he give you in return?" My teeth were clenched and they hurt.
"He gave me power. He showed me how to rule my kingdom and have those around me bow down before me." I looked at him now confused. What the fuck was he talking about.
"What kind of power?" He smiled but now with his teeth covered in blood he simply looked crazy.
"Weapons Dimitri. It is all about weapons. You have the right ones and you can control anything, anyone, even the world." I almost laughed, there was no way Victor was crazy enough to think he could run the world. No one had been able to ever be able to do that, and I doubted it would be something to happen anytime soon.
"How does he plan on doing this?" When Michael refused to talk Rose took out another knife and thrust it into another location in his chest. I knew that one hurt much more than the one before.
"Can't you see he already started it. You have already killed so many people in his way. SO many people that could have stopped him. No you are his weapons for now. But soon he will no longer need you. Not when he knows he can only have you for so long."
"Explain." I had no time for full questions, he knew what I was asking.
"The power he holds over you all is fading. No matter the medication, the torture he gives you. He is losing you. He knows it will happen, he just thought he had more time. But in the end, in the end no one will win, except maybe Victor."
That was the last thing we were able to get out of him. No matter what we did the man refused to talk. He took punch and kick without so much as a scream. He had known we would be coming. Did that mean when Victor found out he was dead he would know it was us? I had no time to worry about that. He had given us answers, and now I craved more.
"Roza, just put the man out of his misery." She looked back at me looking slightly pissed her game was coming to an end. But did as told.
In one swift movement Rose had her own glock out as she shot Michael in the same fashion I had done his guards. Deep down I knew we had gotten more information than we would think. In there somewhere Michael had spilled something, whether it be planned or not. Now I knew we had to continue searching. There were more out there like Michael.
Men and women that would talk, that would be killed. We had started something and I fully intended on finishing it. Looking at Rose the only thing I feared was that we would not make it out alive. Our graves had been dug out way before we even started all of this. I just hoped none of us would fall into the shallow graves before our time.
"Come on sugar. You look too sexy to not ravish you." I grabbed onto Rose slamming her onto a wall, kissing her with all my might.
Times were tough, but that did not mean I was not going to take advantage of the time we had alone. Plus seeing her like that, deadly, just did things to my insides.
Apologies... Though I know that is not enough for how long it has taken me to update this story. I feel horrible... But if you do not read my other story FairyTales Aren't Real then I will let you know why it has taken this long. I am now 14 weeks pregnant and I have been anything but motivated until recently. I am now trying to update regularly, but note I am still always tired, seeing as I am working full time as well still...
So tell me what you thought? Christian has been wiped of his betrayal thoughts? What about what Michael Lazar said to Dimitri and Rose? Do you think Victor wants to rule the world, that crazy bastard? Let me know what you think and give me a ton of love! I need all the motivation I can get! Much love!
