Chapter 259
Knight
Tonight being an important night had everyone of us on our guards. We had made the necessary preparations should anything go wrong. Angel had trusted Caspian and I with his safety and for that reason we went to any length to see that he returned home safely.
I could hear the distinct chatter from Caspian as he gave out instructions to the men then he quickly dialed a number which I confirmed to be Camilo once she answered the call. What exactly was he trying to prove? I had a girlfriend as well… I scoff and move away a bit feeling guilty for not checking up on Cassandra.
I didn’t want to be distracted since Caspian had already entertained one.
Caspian got off the phone and moved towards one of the cars where a little boy and girl sat bravely trying to cover up their fears.
Petty wasn’t he? He was always the petty one but I could tell he was feeling guilty for going that low, all thanks to Camilo’s influence, he probably felt he owed her an apology for getting kids involved in our business. She would never understand, non of the ladies would and if this was one good way to protect Angel then we would do it again.
I looked at the tab in my hands, carefully watching everything that was going on in the game room. That shouldn’t be possible right? All thanks to the kids.
Caspian had tailed Antonio’s chief security for a while, monitoring his families movement and noticed the oddness to it. We didn’t inform Angel about this part of the plan because it only made our work easier.
Samuel, Antonio’s chief security had moved his family outside the country two weeks before the game and that was quite suspicious and even though he had tight security around them we were able to penetrate through their defense using the same tactics we used on him. We went after loved ones of his trusted guards and were able to kidnap the kids without the rest of the security team suspecting much at that time.
It was only after a few hours that Samuel realized what had happened and we were quick to use that to blackmail him.
He was betraying his boss Antonio for us but at least he would be saving his family.
Samuel gave me the required access to inner happenings of the room and that helped a lot because the moment I noticed they weren’t allowing weapons not even batons I got the men moving.
“Fuck it! Mike just gave another signal! Caspian cursed getting worried. He gave out orders in his area of command which ensured tight security outside while I moved with my men for more inside security. Even though I could view what was happening in the room I couldn’t hear the things they were saying. Apparently the only thing the guards were allowed to take in was a radio to avoid suspicions.
I gave silent orders using a device signal and the men moved discreetly so as not to alert Antonio’s men. We stationed at strategic points, silently eliminating any guard that stood in our way. Clothes were swapped and no one could detect us because with the help of Samuel the security room belonged to us now.
Seeing Angel sorrounded by Antonio’s men got me angry, I wanted to get rid of the fucker but I had to keep my emotions in check. Antonio had successfully left the room and was now being escorted to his suite where he was to watch his men get rid of Angel through the camera. Sparrow was next and the moment he had approached the door ready to leave he suddenly stopped halting our attack. He looked behind him, a frown on his face and then he looked up at the camera in the room and a smirk plastard his face.
What in the fuck was that look for? Did he somehow figure out the plan?
He made a U-turn and stepped away from the door. Then he held his ear with a finger and I realized in that moment that he heard a device to it. He was communicating with someone outside.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Angel
I watched as Sparrow moved away from the door and I got confused. I knew the men had my back and would intervene any minute, after all, we had planned this day from the start of the invitation.
I watched Mike tilt slowly to me and the weary on his face showed something was wrong. He was suspecting too.
“I must give it to you Angel. You came prepared.” Sparrow said as he walked back to us. I remained silent and simply waited for him to give out clues as to what was really going on outside.
Sparrow took a chair and sat down then he trailed his eyes over the men and nodded. They moved immediately and tried to search our guards who retaliated causing a fight to break out . We were outnumbered and eventually subdued. Sparrow sat calmly watching from the distance as the men took their win against us.
He stood up and began laughing, clearly mocking us.
“There has been an attack outside.” He said squinting. “You’re not smart as I thought are you? Did you really think I wouldn’t figure out your plans, that you’d try to create an escape plan should things go south?” He asked smiling.
“The question should be who’s winning?”
I said and the smile on his face turned into a frown.
“If you were winning your men would have been here already.” He said trying to wear the intimidating smile again but I noticed something in the way he said it and decided to play smart.
“You don’t know that either. Otherwise, why the sudden stop to leaving this room? Shouldn’t you be watching from your suite while your men get rid of us?”
“I have enough time on my hand. My men have subdued yours.”
I laughed seeing through his sly attempt. The gulp of fluid down his throat as he anticipated my response, the slight fear in his eyes despite wearing a wide smile, his hands in his pocket trying to ease his tension, I marked them all and it gave me the boldness I needed against him because for a moment I was scared when he turned back.
“Then leave this room and let your men do their job. ” I said and his face wrinkled
“You don’t tell me what to do.” He gritted.
“You’re scared….”
“Nice try.”
“Sparrow you madman let us out of here! Ryan yelled trying to get his hands on Sparrow but was knocked out by one of the guards.
“Anyone here wants to get their ass beaten up? Huh!” He yelled angrily and everyone went silent fearing for their lives
“What do we do sir? Do we go ahead and beat them up?” One of the guards asked and he seemed reluctant and restless.
“Why is it so hard to give an answer or are you planning to use me as an escape plan?”
“Stop talking.” He said through his teeth trying as much as possible to hold back his temper.
“You’re scared that I’m right and that my team is winning….”
“I said stop talking!” He yelled shaking from anger.
“What are going to do bastard?” I cursed and with reddened eyes he flared, charging towards me. I dodged a punch and caught the other in my fist. Everything seemed to happen at the same time, just when Sparrow had ordered his men to grab me, the door suddenly burst open and my men began to troop in.
