  “We never got any reports on Matt moving locations, as far as we knew he was in his hideout where we have eyes on him 24/7.” One male from the back spoke up.

  “Well dickhead, your reports are wrong. I want Matt found and taken out as soon as possible, no more waiting. I want him dead!” I slammed my fist on the table; I’ve had enough of waiting. I might as well kill him myself.

  “We aren’t allowed to move in until we get a clear number on who else is staying at the location.” Coming from a woman I’ve never seen before.

  “Put a fucking rush on things, I don’t want anything happening to Louise on your watch. If by the Gods anything does happen to her, again. I will be after each and every one of you. Am I clear?” I don’t bother to say anything else and I start to turn to leave.

  “Actually reports say he is staying in an old warehouse near the docks.” I quickly turn around and eye the man who spoke. He has short brown hair; he wears black glasses and a neatly trimmed moustache. I’ve seen this guy around here a few times but never got his name or what he does.

  “And you are?” He has information and I want all of it.

  “Agent Eagle, sir.” A strange last name if you ask me.

  “I want a full report on my desk in the next two hours on what you know.” This time I walk out of the board room and return to my office. That agent eagle isn’t sitting right with me. I sit down at my desk and fire up the agency’s employee’s list, I type in his name and nothing comes up. I try a different search and nothing comes up except his photo. Well that is strange, unless he is new to the agency to not require a file.

  I scan his photo against the entire photo base system in the world, to see if it’s a match with a more detailed file. This is going to take a few hours, so I lean back in my chair and rest my feet on my desk. I should call Reece to make sure he got to my place all right.

  ‘You made it to mine okay?”

  ‘Yep, Steph and Louise are sorting out their girl drama. You’re missing a great show man.’

  Funny asshole, I don’t want to witness a bitch fight but it would have been funny to watch.

  I can’t wrap my head around the fact that Matt went and saw Louise and she is unharmed. I don’t understand his intention in doing that, why he would risk going out in the open to make small talk. There has to be a bigger picture here and I plan to find out what that is.

  Watching the computer screen it starting to hurt my eyes, seeing all those faces skims past that isn’t a match. This is going to take all night and the very thing I want to do is just crawl up with Louise but nope I can’t.

  There is a knock on my office door and I look up to see who it is. Standing there is Agent Eagle; I close the search bar so he doesn’t see that I’m tracing his face.

  His face looks familiar now that he standing closer to me but fuck, I can’t put my finger on where I’ve seen him before.

  “Yes Agent Eagle.” I clear my throat to let him know I’m watching him.

  “Ah yes, I’m here to give you the files that I had on Matt’s location. The board was talking after you left and they said they won’t do anything anytime soon but I heard from our sources that Matt is on the move and he is on the search for Louise.” He walks over to my desk and places the files on there.

  “I’ll have to confirm with Mr. Wayne about the mission but I would like to check out this warehouse. Are you interested?” The bastard is playing me, I can feel it.

  “Yeah I would, thank you sir.” He turns to leave but just before he exits the office my computer makes a Bing noise. I’ve got a hit.

  “That will be all Agent Eagle.” I make sure he has left quite a distance after leaving my office before I pop up the tab again and to find out who this person really is.

  Well fuck!

  I had a bad feeling about that guy, and no wonder his name has Eagle in it.

  I’ve just found out who the mole is.

  It’s Saunders.

  He was there the night I went and saved Louise from Matt and his boys. I can’t believe no one detected it before now.

  I must tell Mr. Wayne right away, so we can do something about it.

  I quickly print out the information and close the tabs on my computer. I make sure that I clear all my internet history just in case anyone decides to snoop in my office while I’m not here.

  I leave my office, the piece of paper in my hands and I go in search for Mr. Wayne. His office isn’t far from mine and that’s where I’m going to check first. I pass people at their desks staring at me, I honestly have no idea why but it can’t be a good thing.

  I’m standing outside Mr. Wayne’s door and I knock twice I am hoping he is in there…

  “Come in.” He doesn’t sound happy at all. Just my luck.

  I push the door open and Mr. Wayne is on the phone to someone.

  “Well fucking find him…” He hangs up the phone and turns towards me. His face softens when he sees it’s me standing here and not someone else.

  “Ah Alex, I’m glad you stopped by,” he turns around more in his chair. “Have a seat.”

  I take a seat opposite him and I wait for him so say something first.

  “I just got off the phone to my boss and they want to move in on Matt at the end of next week. Sources have told us that he isn’t going to stop until Louise returns back to him. Dead or alive.” That isn’t the kind of news I was hoping to hear but I guess if we make our move first then Louise will be safe.

  “What did you come here for Alex?” He distracts me from my thoughts and I remember the real reason I was there.

  “I apologize, you caught me off guard with that information.” I pull the piece of paper out of my pocket and pass it to him. I watch him scan the new information and I watch closely at his facial expressions. I want to know if he knew this already. It turns out he hasn’t.

  “So you’re saying that this man here works for Matt? That this same man has been working with us for over two years now? What the fuck!” He looks like he is ready to throw up. I feel sorry for him, just a little bit.

  He gets up from his chair and starts pacing the room.

  I just sit back and watch him, there isn’t anything I can do from here except to not let Saunders get clued on that we know who he really is.

  He’s been feeding us information about Matt, giving people to us with who are in cahoots with them. It makes sense now how Louise was sent to someone Matt knew and trusted. How they teamed up with the stalker Holly, to get back at me but I honestly don’t care.

  “What are we going to do about this problem?” Mr. Wayne pauses when I ask him that question.

  “We aren’t going to do anything, we will let him bring us the information we need and when it’s time to take Matt out, we will take out Saunders first. It will be a surprise attack.” Now he is onto something, I just hope he doesn’t wait too long to do that. Lou’s life is still at risk.

  “Sounds like a plan, now that we know where Matt and his club members are hiding. We know who the mole is and what we plan on doing with him. Can I have a few days off with Louise? I have a few things planned and I don’t need distractions right now.” I need to propose to her as soon as possible.

  “Yes, I will call you if I need anything.” I get up from the chair and I pull my phone out of my pocket.

  I better let Lou know she has me all to herself for the next couple of days.

  I arrive home to find Reece and Steph not there. Perfect, I want Louise all to myself.

  “Louise, I’m home.” I call out into the apartment. I have so much planned for the remaining week. I want to tell her all about it.

  “Yes I’m here. Reece and Steph left half an hour ago.” I watch her step out from behind the wall and into the living room light.

  I don’t say anything to her when I stalk towards her, I need to feel her, and I need to have her in my arms. She meets me halfway and rushes in my arms, like she is starving for my touch.

  “It’s alright, I’m here. E
verything will be okay.” I stroke her hair while she hides her head under my chin. This woman is my being; I’d be nothing without her.

  “I was so scared today, I didn’t expect Matt to show up there like he did. I expected him to kill me right there but he didn’t. He said he has bigger plans than my death today. I’m afraid of what those plans are…” I hug Louise in tighter to me, I hated not being there for her and letting her face Matt all on her own. It’ll never happen again.

  “I have the rest of the week off, I want to let you in on some of my plans for this week. Just the two of us, how would you like that?” I pull her away from my body to see her facial expressions. I hope she is happy with this decision.

  “Yes Alex, I want to know everything!” She is excited, I sigh in relief.

  I take her hand and walk us towards the living room. We both take a seat; I think she will need one.

  “Did you want the good news or the bad news first? I do have a lot to tell you and I want to get it all out now.” I have to think of everything I have to tell her, I can’t leave anything out.

  “Bad news please, I would like tonight to end on a high.” She has a point and I love that about her.

  “Aright, the bad news is… Matt and the club members will be taken out at the end of next week. Mr. Wayne and his team are in the middle of rearranging plans as we speak. I wanted to be home this week just in case any information was leaked.” I can’t tell by her expression whether she is relieved or pained by this news. I’m excited about this news.

  “There is more bad news isn’t there?” Louise looks at me with confusion on her face, she is right again. There is more bad news to come.

  “Yes, my lawyers have finally obtained the DNA test from Jackie. They sent me an email earlier today. They won’t know the results until the end of this week. I want you to know that I love you and whether this child is mine or not. I will still be here for you.” I grab her hand and place it over my heart.

  “You own all of this Precious. No one else.” I hope the baby isn’t mine; this has gone on for far too long. She should be due in the next few months.

  “Is there any good news? I would like to hear the good news now.” My impatient girl, I can understand wanting to hear the good news right about now.

  “Well, tomorrow I’m having furniture removers coming in and taking everything from this apartment and taking it to our new home. So when everything is over, we will be living in our own home.” Watching her face light up at that news gave my heart a jumpstart. Soon enough we will be in our own home.

  “Okay, more news. I’m loving this already.” She is practically jumping up and down in her spot.

  “I have arranged a date night this Friday night for us, then after dinner we will be visiting your parents. Apparently Seth will be home.” She jumped off the chair and is now jumping up and down on the spot.

  I’ve had to make a few calls back in the agency to make sure Seth was home for when I propose to Louise. I wanted family and friends to witness the magical moment.

  “I can’t believe you did that! Alex, this means so much to me. Thank you.” She slowly walks over to me and kisses me on the lips.

  “There’s more good news isn’t there?” Louise takes her seat again and waits to hear the other good news I wanted to share with her.

  “Yes the last good news is Mr. Wayne contacted Mr. Gates at the finance firm and you can have your old job back. That’s if you want it?” I knew she was looking forward to going back to work and I am glad I’m the one to tell her the good news but looking at her face, she doesn’t seem that thrilled.

  “What’s wrong? I thought you wanted to go back to work.” This was all news to me, I know I gave her the option to stay at our new house without worrying about going to work but I had a feeling she would want to return.

  “I do, I am so happy to be accepted back at the firm but I’m just not feeling it anymore. It was great when it was just Steph and I but now she has Reece and I have you. It’s not the same. It’s good but I think I would prefer to take up your offer and become an ambassador for Stand Against Violence. I think I would do more good there then helping companies with their financial problems.” She looks at me with pleading eyes and I can’t resist it. Of course I’ll help her reach her goal, that’s what I promised.

  “Anything you want, and that way you can work from home.” I pull her closer to me and I give her a small kiss on the cheek.

  “Oh, I almost forgot. I have some good news for you. When Reece and Steph were here, we talked out our problems. Well we yelled out our problems but she finally saw the light that you’re nothing like Matt and that buying a house together isn’t a big deal anymore. Reece was a big help with that, so you and I owe him big.” She looks happy, like a huge weight has lifted off her shoulders.

  “I’m glad, that guy has done a lot for me over the last few years. I owe him a lot more than my life.” I place my hands on each side of her face and I slowly move it towards mine.

  “I love you Precious.” I bring my lips down onto hers.

  I need to just let go of everything that’s weighing down on us and to just feel this moment. To let the feel of Louise’s skin on mine, to feel her breath on my skin and feel her voice vibrate against me.

  I’ve missed her soft lips, I start to roam my hands over her body and I gently push her down against the seat so she’s lying on her back. I want to take my time with her tonight but I just want her already. I don’t want to wait to take her and she feels it too.

  “Alex, I don’t want to wait.” It’s like she read my mind.

  I rip open up the buttons to her shirt and I throw it to the floor. I do the same thing to her bra; she will need a new one now that it’s in two pieces.

  I bring her nipple into my mouth and suck on it. I bite it harder and she is moaning my name.

  My hands are now moving down her naked body and slowly undoing her pants zipper.

  I know we won’t be able to make it back to my room, so we are going to have to settle on fucking here.

  “Alex, now.” She groans out her words.

  “Okay Precious.” I kiss her neck before I stand up and undress.

  I look down at her and she’s everything I’ve ever wanted.

  I slowly lower myself down towards her and I smile. I know she is impatient but I want just this moment to be slow.

  “Alex!” She laughs, she knows what I’m doing and she hates it.

  “Now, now.” I grab her left leg and put it over my shoulder. I keep lowering myself until I’m right at her wet entrance.

  I slowly push my way in through her pink folds and she is tight. I push my way in while she stretches for me.

  I keep going until I’m all the way in, I close my eyes and I let the feeling of her wrapped around me take over.

  She feels like heaven.

  I slowly move inside and out of her, more and more I do it the louder her moaning gets.

  I’m going faster and hard now and I can feel the tingle up my spine, I know I’m close but I want to get Louise there before I explode.

  “Are you ready Precious?” I ask her, she knows I’m close and would never finish without her. I can feel her tense around me as she orgasms, she screams out my name and I follow her along. I slowly pull out of her and I collapse on top of her.

  “Alex, you’re heavy.” She laughs into my neck. I slowly lift up and kiss her on the lips.

  “Sorry love.”

  Chapter Twenty

  Louise

  LAST NIGHT WAS AMAZING, I love spending all the time I can with Alex and knowing that we will be moving houses today and tomorrow just makes everything great.

  I don’t have much stuff here to pack so I will be helping Alex. He doesn’t want to part with anything but I don’t want pointless shit in our new house.

  “Do we need this? I want to keep it.” Alex holds up a baseball glove that’s falling apart.

  “No, you can get a new one and I’ve never seen you u
se it.” I chuckle when I see him wipe away a fake tear.

  “Yes boss.” He throws it in the rubbish pile. He has so much stuff and most of it is pointless. We definitely need to go shopping for a lot of new items. The house won’t be the only thing new.

  “The first truckload is all ready to be taken to the house, they will be here in half an hour. Did you want to stay here and keep packing or did you want to go with them and make sure they unload everything in the correct places?” Alex walks over to me while I’m packing away glasses from the kitchen cupboard.

  “I would like to take the first trip, to check out the house again. I want to take a few of my things over and put them away. I’ll make sure I take the ride back here.” I lean over the box to give Alex a kiss. He has been so kind about this, I know he didn’t want to move at first but now he is so excited. The house couldn’t be more perfect for us.

  “Alright Precious, but I’m taking the next two trips. That’s when most of the heavy lifting will happen and I don’t want you getting hurt.” Alex leans back towards me and gives me another kiss.

  I look around the apartment and the floor is covered in boxes. So many piles of boxes, from large to small ones and they are stacked high. I really can’t believe this is happening; I would never have thought that my life would be like this today. If I didn’t make that choice to leave Matt, I wouldn’t be with the love of my life.

  I never want this happiness to end.

  “Lou are you ready?” Alex calls out to me, I must have been daydreaming.

  “Yeah, sorry just thinking.” I place the cup down in the box and follow Alex outside towards the moving truck. The truck is huge. I stand there watching three men carry Alex’s chairs and large boxes into the back of the truck. Sweat dripping off them, they are around our age and they all look very fit. If I weren’t in love with Alex I would have chatted them up but that feeling is long gone. I’m in a happy place.

  I feel useless standing here, I know Alex doesn’t want me lifting any of these boxes and I only own two bags of clothes that are moving from here. I do have some stuff from my parents and Steph’s place I could grab but that won’t happen today.
