Galaxy Of Hope

‘You see beautiful… I know for a fact that one of your mates is in this room.’ It was a complete redo of our last shuffle. His hands went to my throat so quick I couldn’t even block it. The escargot was almost at my lips and was now lying on the tile floor somewhere. A gun pointed to my slope.

‘You know I don’t really like being played for a fool.’ He growled and squeezed a little harder. Wrong move.

Dosch, Andrew, Mourad and several other Scorpio’s and Libra’s were on their feet now.

‘You let her go, Vincent.’ Dosch said between clenched teeth, clutching his escargots spoon like knife, ready to kill him with it. By the looks of him he could. ‘We are not killing innocent women. We have a code.’ His eyes focused on the hand on my neck and I knew Dosch would cut Vincent’s arm of for this.

Vincent found that very funny.

Andrew was now red in the face too. Eyes murderous, glancing towards the gun pointed at my temple as if it was going to explode any second now.

He dragged me towards the middle of the restaurant. Rainers fleeing for their lives now, laughing like a madman.

‘Now will the real mate please stand up. There is no use to pretend you aren’t because I know. If you don’t within one, two, three. She will die. I have no more use for her anyway.’ I don’t know if he was bluffing or not but before I could signal Dosch that he needed to sit his ass down, that Vincent would never kill me. He needed me and this was all one big bluff. How did he know about Dosch though?

He started counting.

And on three.

Both Dosch and Andrew stepped forward.
