Four or Dead by G O A

Four or Dead

Kicking out Angel was probably not the wisest decision I have ever made, but seeing the rage in Reyes's eyes when she said she hated us and the hurt on Alekos's face when she revealed she was on birth control lets me know I made the right decision. In time, they will realize it is best she is no longer part of our lives. Alekos and Reyes thinking she left on her own is for the best

I am enjoying a glass of good wine and a steak at a restaurant while the cleaning lady is busy in the apartment when I receive an email from an unknown address with the subject 'Alekos.' For a moment, I contemplate deleting it, but thinking it is something important, I open it

Alekos, if you are reading this, it means I am in danger. There are things I kept hidden from you, not because I don't trust you, but because I vowed not to say a word to anyone. But I ask you to trust me and come to my aid one last time

There is a facility on the outskirts of the city. Terrible things happen there. I have been kidnapped, and in case I am taken there, I attached the address to the email along with other things about that place

One more thing. I stole something from Carlos-a pen drive. I don't know what's on it, but I hope it contains enough proof to take him down. Make him suffer

I left the pen drive in the fish tank in your company's lobby

*Thank you for taking me in when I needed your help, and I want you to know that I don't hate you or your blood-brothers, and I did want a family with all of you. But I know it is a little too late, and you no longer want me in your lives

Goodbye

She was kidnapped? Fuck! If Carlos is behind it.... Guilt hits me. I not only kicked her out, but I was a total ass when she asked for help

She wanted a family with us...then why lie about it?

I could have at least made sure she was safe. Instead, I threw money at her when she asked for my help, humiliating her and making her cry. I might not like her, but I don't want her to end up in Carlos's hands and be raped and killed, just like what happened with Emily

I open the attached PDF and read the information she sent about the facility. There have been rumors about it for years, and when Reyes and his father confirmed its existence, the Lords have been trying to locate it with their help, but the angels keep it hidden from us

But if Angel is not lying and she knows how to get there

My eyes run over the PDF

Shit! She knows more about it than Reyes or AnderContent is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

I dial Cirro's number. He is one of Rin's blood-brothers and one of the

best hackers I know. If Angel is there, she is in great danger

Hours later, with Cirro's help, I enter the facility. The pen drive is in my work computer, as it has a special program that will scan it for viruses or any hidden programs. Once the program runs its course, I will finally see if the pen drive was worth all the trouble Angel is putting me through. Especially since I haven't told Alekos and Reyes the truth about her being kidnapped

Lying to Alekos and Reyes is not something I particularly enjoy, but it is necessary

Inside the facility, I meet a man-514 is tattooed on his face. It is the first time we met, but I have seen photos of him in Rin's house

"You are "

He does not let me finish. Maybe he does not want to talk about his past. "What are you doing here?" he asks, his voice full of anger

I don't know if I should trust him, but he is one of the many Lords' children who have disappeared in the past fifteen years. He may be willing to help me locate Angel. "I am looking for a woman. Help me, and in return, I will take you back to your family. They are looking for you."

He is silent for a few seconds. "I will help you only if you will give me a hand in destroying this place."

It won't be easy, but Cirro has an entire military arsenal in his van

"Deal."

"Tell me the name of the woman."

"Angelica Hernandez."

His face is a mask of indifference, so him telling me he knows where she is has me doubting him. But he is from a Lords' family; he won't lead me into a trap. At least, I hope not

He takes the lead, and we go up the stairs. Guards try to stop us, but they are normal humans, and killing them is easy. On the fifth floor, we go to the cells. The doors open, letting me know Cirro hacked the system

"You didn't come here alone." "Someone is helping me," I let him know

He nods. "She is in that cell, over there," he says, pointing at the far end of the floor

Finding Angel was easier than I thought

A doctor comes out from one of the cells, dragging a naked woman after him-a woman who looks identical to Emily. But it can't be. Emily is dead. I was called in to identify her the day the police found the body. It was her, I am sure of it

But what if it was a setup? A growl of rage leaves me, thinking I lost five years of happiness because of Carlos. Even if I don't have proof, he is behind this. I am sure of it

I kill the doctor and pick her up in my arms. Her lips are sewn together, and scars I haven't seen before are all over her body. Only one draws my attention-it is on her left breast, and she got it when she was six and fell from a tree

"Emily? Is this really you?" Tears run down her angelic face as she nods

The rage I feel inside, thinking of what she must have endured. "What have they done to you?"

She buries her face in my chest, calming me

"You have been alive all this time." I stand. Guards run to us, and I kill them. "You are safe now, my love. I will never let anything bad ever happen to you."
