Bound Forever

He was tossing and turning on his bed unable to sleep, he felt something bad would happen today but upon seeing the beautiful resting features of his angel that was right beside him he couldn’t help but smile.

His hands slowly stroke the side of her face and he watches how she flinches a little due to his touch, he stifles his chuckle before jumping out of bed; he had a job to do and it wasn’t going to do itself. 

It was still early hours in the dawn so he decided to go with his normal exercise routine before heading to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for himself and his darling, who was still sleeping soundly in bed. 

What stuff do we have here? Some eggs and bread, also salad. He thought of doing something healthy since you knew that Jane was someone who eats frosted flakes everyday just to avoid cooking or stepping into the kitchen altogether. 

As he boiled the eggs he gets a phone call from a random number and he picks it up, “what’s the situation of things?” 

“Boss they haven’t left the apartment, but I can hear a lot of shouting, probably they’re fighting or something?” Raymond’s second pair of eyes reports the details to him and he hums in approval.

“Just make sure you don’t take your eyes off them, okay?” It takes the egg out of the cooker and made cracks into them.

“Sure thing boss.” And the line goes mute, Raymond goes back to his cooking and it reached a certain point in time when little arms wrapped around his big figure, knowing that is little angel had finally awoken from her sleep.

“What’s for breakfast? I’m hungry.” She moans into his back before peering at his side to see what he was making. Jane’s face wrinkles in disgust and she sees a healthy bowl of veggie salad, some toasted crumbs and a boiled egg, “what is this? I’m a human being not a goat.” She retaliates before reaching out for the box of frosted flakes that was oh __so close to her. 

Until her hand is smacked away by a wooden spoon. She whines in pain as her teary eyes looked up at him in anger “you know what? get out of my house”. She commands and this makes Raymond explode in laughter.

“So you want to throw this away?” He motions to himself and she shrugs her shoulders nonchalantly ready to give him up as long as she gets her frosted flakes, “babe I love you, you need to drop the cereal”.

He hands her a bowl of healthy breakfast and she denies him like a plague, “Jane stop being so stubborn and eat your food or I’ll give you something to choke on.” He smirks like the devil and this forces her to sluggishly collect the bowl from him.

“You’re such an ass.” she curses at him before going into the living area with nothing but tiny underwear over her delicate bum to sit down on the couch and suffer from the hideous thing he called breakfast. 

He follows her with a smile on his face before announcing his plans for the day, “I’ll be going out; I might not come back today, might branch to a friend’s place.” The change in his tone was enough to make her realize that it was Danovo and Julian’s matter.

“Did they report anything back to you?” There was a lump in her throat and she had suddenly lost appetite, “do you have to go today? I have a bad feeling about this….” 

“You can’t go. Someone gotta do it by the way, where is Daniella?” He rushes his breakfast and gulps down his glass of orange juice.

“She’s at a hotel, since she told Draco to sign the divorce papers she’s had concerns that he would do something stupid like sending his men after her so she decided to lay low at a hotel.”

She fiddles with the salad not feeling like eating anymore but he throws his body beside her.

“Jane you need to eat, I’ll be fine, I promise I’ll come back safe and sound, nothing is going to happen to me so stop fussing and give me a big kiss” He Puckers and she places a very cute kiss on the lips “be a good girl okay I’ll be back soon.”

He rused up with his food, then went up the stairs to put on some clothes and she slouches in the couch, she had a bad feeling but the best she could do was be supportive and it was what she was doing. 

Raymon got out with his car following the address that his Spy-Man had sent him, he reached there in a matter of 30 minutes and his men nod to him, he slowly gets out of the car and goes to the rather nice looking house. He peers through the window but he doesn’t seem to hear any sort of murmuring or arguing in fact it’s almost as if no one was in the house. 

“Is anybody even in there?” He asked the head of his gang and he nods in affirmation, but Raymond was rather sceptical about his answer, so he decided to knock on the door. And there was no answer. 

“What the fuck is going on now?” he knocks even louder knowing that it was blowing his cover but he knew that Julian and Danovo could not be here and there was every possibility that they could have been deceived, his hard knocking became rude and angry and suddenly an old woman opens the door for him. Not too old but elderly. 

“Excuse me son, may I help you with something?” her voice was already cracking due to age and Raymond felt a wave of heat rush slammed his cheek.

“No ma’am! no ma’am, I actually thought this was where my friend was staying, I had no idea that this was your house I am really sorry for the disturbance.

He must have been given me a wrong address or something.” He apologizes profusely as his eyes take a glance at the surroundings of the house before returning back to the woman’s feeble features, “I’m really sorry I disturbed you just imagine that I was never here, thank you so much.” 

He quickly calls his men over to a corner which was not far from the house. ”But boss I could have sworn that they entered the house, I saw them myself,” the head of the gang was so sure that he had seen Julian and Danovo in the house and there was no elderly woman or anyone. In fact the house was abandoned. 

“I know, they’re in there but they’re hiding so I want us to wait here before they come out. It’s either they blackmailed the woman or she’s working for them willingly, this is not the address of the apartment Daniella gave me. I was sceptical when you gave me this location but I’m sure they feel like they are old deb is a hot seat so they don’t want to be exposed.” 

“And why aren’t you an FBI agent?” The head of the gang sings his praises, ”Well it’s simple common sense, criminals will never stay in a place for too long, especially if they realise that their base has been discovered.”

And just as Raymond had predicted Julian and Danovo leave the woman’s apartment wearing heavy clothes to cover their faces. ”You did not see anybody and nobody was ever here got it?” Danovo threatened and she nods with shaky fingers before he hands her a bundle of cash.

“You need a vacation, I suggest you leave the city while you can.” And he enters a car with Julian and speeds off.

“Come on guys that our cue!!” Raymond rushed into his vehicle, turned on the car following after Danovo’s car, his men are right behind him, their engines not slowing down one bit. 

“Dan I think some people are following us” Julian takes a look back from the window and she had noticed that a particular pair of cars had been trailing them for a while, not too close but not too far either ”do you think it is the police?” Her fingers were aleady shivering with fear.

“No it can’t be the police, I have a feeling they must be one of Daniella’s men. That dumb bitch would not just leave us alone.” He takes a sharp turn with rock determination to shake off the people that were following them, and since he knew the twist and turns of the city more than he knew himself, he was able to shake off Raymond’s men but not Raymond. 

They are forced to go back to their old den, he quickly drags Julian out of the car and pushed her into the apartment, locking the door behind him” we will be safe for now.” 

“But why were they following us? Who were they?” Julian was asking too many questions and this was already getting Danovo on his last nerve but he did everything not to shout at her.

”I think Daniella is looking for every possible ways to expose us, don’t you get it?” he whispered, sweat dotted on his head.

“It doesn’t matter who they or why they were doing it all that matters right now is that we’re safe okay?” He had successfully managed to calm her down and she embraces him which he thought was uncalled for but he accepts it either way, “whatever happens do not leave this place, I’m going to call for backup.” And he pulls out his phone to gather his Men, walking a significant distance away from her. 

Raymond finally got to the apartment and it matches the address that Danielle had given him, “they finally came back to their old den,” he doesn’t exit his car immediately he wanted to see if anyone would come out or if there were any of Danovo’s men lurking around the apartment. Unfortunately for him there were none. 

Raymond slowly gets out of his car and goes to the front door, he doesn’t turn the handle but he notices that the door is locked when he peeped through the keyhole, so he decided to take the alternative route; the window. Fortunately for him it wasn’t locked. 

He slowly opens it slowly, making sure not to alert anyone that was inside the house as he pushed his body through the small space, his feet gently connecting to the wooden floor then, he closed the wl window, making sure no one knows that someone had entered the apartment. 

He could hear murmurings, a male and a female voice echoing through the walls of the house, he moved in slowly to the direction of the voices and he could see Julian and Danovo arguing about something. Those guys were always arguing anyway. 

what they were arguing about was very interesting, in fact it was necessary to help Daniella win this case and still have father free. They were bickering about the murder of Draco’s Dad and escaping. 

“Well we can’t stay in the city forever, it’s only a matter of time before they find us out so please just leave!” Julian was already so scared about everything and everyone they had to kill just to make sure they were safe.

“Julian for the fucking last time nobody is going to be able to hurt us!! If I can kill all of them that I can kill anyone!! No one can stop me because I am powerful not even my father could beg me for mercy.”

. 

“But baby, you know very well it is not safe to be here. You’re the one who taught me everything I know and you always said that when the base has been discovered it is best to relocate, it is not wise for us to be here so I advise we pack our things and leave for like a different country, right now.”

She pushes him away to start packing their luggage, actually she had finished packing their luggage when he was making his call but she wanted to make sure that everything was there. She couldn’t handle it anymore. 

They were always running from one place to the other than never had time for each other, and she was sincerely tired, it’s only a matter of time before they were caught and she knew that something bad was going to happen if Danovo was to get into another encounter with somebody for anybody that posed a threat to him. 

“where you running to Julian? Don’t you think that if we leave now they will definitely trail us to the airport, be smart Julian, think!” He wondered how he got together with someone like her, one moment she was smart the next moment she was not so smart. 

“Well I don’t want to die and I don’t want to see you die either!! I know you are powerful and if you could kill your father then I know that you can kill anyone but please I beg of you, let us just fucking get out of here!! It isn’t safe Danovo!!” 

And as they bickered back and forth Raymond took the liberty to record everything especially the confession, both of them had said the truth but as he backed away from them after saving the recording, his back hit a small stand that held an antique vase, making it scatter to pieces after it connected to the floor. 

And he knew he was screwed. He didn’t waste any time and went for the window, Danovo had come out and sighted him trying to escape, and it became a hot pursuit. 

“You!” Danovo yelled and chased after him. Raymond run as fast as his legs could carry him but he noticed that he had not sent the video to Danielle so he quickly did that, he turned back to see Danovo was hot on his tail and did his best to increase the speed. 

“Danovo, stop it!” Juliana yelled when she saw the commotion. The two men were already gone. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Raymond was chased to a crossroad. If only he had calculated the way he was going, maybe he wouldn’t have taken that route. Maybe he would have gone back to the park. A gunshot was heard. The pain was barely there, but he felt himself fall to the ground. “Shit,” he whispered. The phone fell out of his hand. 

Danovo ran up to him, panting. “Who do you think you are, spying on me?” he asked angrily. “Like who exactly do you think you are to try to do that? You think you can make me take the fall for this? It’s not going to work,” he said and aimed the gun at Raymond’s head. 

The wounded man opened his mouth to say something. Before he could get it out, the bullet was already between his eyes.

Danovo watched his eyes roll to the back of his head. His expression was wild. “Even in dead, you’re still troublesome,” Danovo whispered and spat on the dead man’s face. He took the phone and smashed it, stumping its remains with his feet. 

When he got back to his car, Julian was still standing there with her mouth open. “What are you standing here for?” he asked roughly. 

“What happened to him?” she asked him, ignoring his own question. 

He stared at her long and hard. “That does not concern you.” Danovo growled at her, the adrenaline still pumping in his veins as he realised he had killed another person. 

“Danovo answer me this instant!! Who was he and what did you do to him? What did you fucking do to him?!” She pushed him away in anger as she began to break down.

“I killed that mother fucking bastard!! he was going to give us out what do you expect me to do?? beg him to not do so?! Jillian look I do not have any time for your nonsense, do not leave this place I will be back soon.” He commands her but she doesn’t let go of his arm.

“Where you going? To kill another person?” Her eyes were bleeding tears profusely and her makeup had been ruined, he gently removed her arm not wanting to be rough with her. ”That does not concern you.” And he walks out the door.

“Danovo!! Danovo!!” She calls out to him multiple times but he ignores her, get into his car and speeds off.
