“I knew it! I told you to stay away from those guys” Rex yelled
“So now what? Did you want to beat her up? Is that how you want to deal with cases? Acting foolish! You better get that off your mind, Craig.”
“I will question her about it to satisfy your curiosity” Rex added walking towards Amanda who was conversing with her friends, he bent over and whispered to her before saying loudly.
“If both of you don’t mind I need her”
“Sure…you could have her forever” Bridget responded
Amanda shook her head towards them before following him.
On their way, she stopped and asked
“Where are you taking me to?”
“We are almost there. You’ll know when we arrive” still, she didn’t move.
He stopped then came very close to her and looked into her eyes.
“Please…”
She couldn't deny it after seeing those eyes of his. She nodded slowly before he extended his hand for her to hold. And they continued their journey.
They ended far from the party but still in the same building as he directed her into an empty room. She saw Craig eagerly waiting and he stood up at the sight of her while Rex peeked at the corridor.
She stopped questioning “Why did you bring me here?”
Rex locked the door and stood in front of her. While she looked at them confused. She was so scared of the outcome.
Are they about to r**e me? , Is this the end of my life? I shouldn't have followed him, Oh God please help me! Rex snapped his fingers at her and she blinks her eyes landing on earth.
“Don’t think a lot. We’re not here to harm you” Rex muttered under his breath
“Well, guess what, we will harm you if we find out you did it!” Craig threatened
“Don’t listen to him. This is what is going on…” Rex began explaining what happened before finally asking “So, I’m going to ask you… Did you do this?” showing pics from Craig's phone.
She stared at it blankly for some time and Craig was getting impatient
“Just answer the damn question. Yes, or No! And stop staring at the screen” Craig yelled and she flinched
“That’s enough Craig!” Rex scolded
“Did you?” Rex asked again
She shook her head uttering “No…”
“How sure are we she’s not lying?” Craig questioned
Rex kept looking into her eyes before responding “Because she isn’t”
“Then who is?” Craig questioned
Rex got into deep thoughts for some time then mentioned “If whoever did this chose to engrave her name, that means someone is after her. However, the fact that he/she used you to get to her, also means one of us have been targeted”
Amanda was confused “One of us? Why?”
He brought his gaze to her “Never mind.”
He added “I need to get you out of here”
“Uhh…what? No way… I came with my girls. I can’t leave without them” she protested
“Do you trust me?”
“What? That’s a ridiculous question” she responded
“If you stay here for one more minute, you won’t like your afterlife”
She gulped
“I will ask you once again, do you trust me?”
She blinked her eyes severally looking at him, then nodded silently.
“So, do as I say”
Gently pulling her hands, he commanded to Craig “Make sure you stick with others. And keep an eye on the intruders”
“Sure” he responded
Rex dragged her out of the building to where his car was packed. They both got in and he drove off speedily.
...
Roy was informed by James about the intruders so, he had his eyes watching the entire room. He walked through the crowd of hectic and drunken students towards another dance hall. Just when he left the previous room, his eyes fell on Xena who drank while conversing with some guys.
He wanted to make a round turn but stopped death his track noticing those guys were part of the intruders. He scanned their faces before walking towards her.
When she saw him approaching, her eyes lit up. She diverted her full gaze to him causing those guys to stare at a landing Roy.
"Can I have a talk with you for a sec?" He questioned her
"Who the hell are you?" A guy from the group stood up with wounded eyes.
Roy was so relaxed as he stayed his gaze on the guy.
"We don't have to do this. He's with me" Xena spoke jacking from her seat towards Roy
"Next time if you want to talk with her, you come to me first" the guy added
Roy chuckled with a gentle smirk forming on his face.
"No need barking man. You know better" Rex said
"You say what?" He makes a step towards Rex and Amanda sandwiches herself between them.
"Enough Dilan!" She yells
"You're lucky she cares" he works
"You should be scared then" Rex muttered.
He clenched his jaws while Amanda reddens at his words then faced him.
"I'm all yours"
He lowers his head digging into her eyes before taking her away from their presence.
They walked out of the festivity hall into an airy zone where the sound of music was unreachable.
