4 Chapter Four
Alexander's POV
*The Day Before Rosie Reid Arrives In Vancouver, Canada*
Alexander slams the front door furiously walking towards his car.
"Alexander! I am speaking to you just listen already. Hey, listen to me. I have had a couple of long days and I am too tired to fucking pay attention to you. Eli -"
"No! I don't wanna hear about some stupid prostitute or gang member being murdered and ditched in the back of some alley AGAIN! Oh and that it doubled more the amount than last week because I am tired of the White Fang. Who cares anymore it's stupid."
"This is not stupid, people are being murdered because of some idiotic gang's leader and his bad blood with other gangs especially The Black League and we don't need this to keep continuing especially..."
"Especially what? Especially what? Oh, so now you're gonna stop talking, as usual, there's no point in hiding the Russian ascent Liam I know it's you! We're not even at school there's no time for the mute act Liam."
"Stop being such a dumbass already that's all you've been doing since last summer. Do you even care about those women dy-"
"-No, I don't because I'm sick and tired of hearing about the same old deaths and you know what can help right now, some good old sex you should try it sometime or maybe someone."
Alexander shuts his car door turning the ignition, speeding off.
"Fucking piece of shit. Welp no getting to him until Monica cools him down, but for how long will she distract him." Liam said with a grin.
The sound of Monica moaning echoed throughout the room. The sun shined on them through the slightly opened curtains.
Alexander kisses her cheek making his way to her neck as she's trying to gasp for air.
He chuckled stopping to think about what Liam said to him but interrupted by Monica's annoying voice.
"Are you just gonna stare or are you gonna continue babe?" Monica said as she wrapped her arm around my neck making it very uncomfortable.
"Are you gonna complain all the time or struggle to stop moaning," I said continuing where I left off to hurry up this booty call, but still can't stop thinking about yesterday this is so annoying. I'll probably call him after I finish and I am guessing this bitch is about to say something about losing my train of thought.
"-Hey if you're getting bored all you have to do is leave, it's already morning so I have to go shopping with the squad around eleven and I can't do that if you're on top of me," she said as I sighed in relief of being free.
"Yeah, sure I'm gonna head to the coffee shop on my way home I'll just let myself out."
"Yeah you do that," Monica said while heading to the bathroom turning the shower on.
She poked her head out. "Hey, make sure to not space out next time we're having sex it ruins the mood for me.
"Yeah sure," I said while putting my shirt on.
"You have no idea how much you ruin the mood for me, Monica," I whispered closing the door behind myself.
Alexander parks his car near the coffee shop.
"Shit what time is it already maybe I should call Liam," Alexander said as he sat on the hood of his car.
He tried calling Liam but no answer but thought to just leave a voicemail instead.
"Hey, I just got back from Monica's place as usual. I'm heading home soon to deal with the issue you were trying to talk to me about that I didn't listen to. So yeah, I'll be heading there soon I just have to get some breakfast even though it's the middle of the day and hey next time answer your damn phone L."
He chuckles as he hangs up putting his phone in his pocket.
I still can't stop thinking about what Liam said about me changing last summer. Did I?
He starts to walk to the door of the coffee shop, but his day starts to get a little meaty because of some clumsy girl.
"Watch where you're going bitch!" That was kinda harsh but she was in my way but I guess it's too late especially since I was technically not concentrating.
She is pretty but she keeps staring at me like I just murdered a puppy in front of her.
"Are you just gonna stand there staring and say absolutely nothing." Honestly, the staring is getting kinda annoying and I'm starting to smell the meat juice which would be better if it was in my mouth and not on my clothes.
Whatever she said next made me rethink what I said before but it was kinda funny and hard to keep a straight face while she argued about her sandwich getting on me instead of her and the sandwich falling which is an uncommon insult especially with the ladies.
She also wanted me to say sorry to her which was cute but irritating I have no time to deal with this I am starving but I guess she beat me to it by walking away.
She was really cute I hope to see her soon guess I should head inside to get some food before the place closes.
Alexander closes the door heading straight for the kitchen to eat the food he got from the coffee shop but hears two familiar voices.
"So she's starting school tomorrow and I want her to be safe I just want you to still keep the act up but watch out for her but at the same time, I want you to know she's stronger than you think I just really love her."
"-Well well well if it isn't Elijah and Liam what are we talking about this fine evening?" Alexander said as he bowed like he was talking to the queen.
"Now is not the time to be a curious asshole but the time to listen. Liam told me about your tantrum you had yesterday. I hope you will listen to me. Tonight we're going to befriend another small gang and I need you two of course and the next time you call me Elijah, like you're, speaking to the queen of England I'll cut your tongue off and feed it to piranhas." Elijah said as he held his knife in hand.
"Hey, no need to get on the aggressive side here I just got breakfast-"
"-Did you also bring a meat truck with you? You hardly even smell like fresh meat." Jazmine said with a grin.
"No asshole of a sister I didn't bring a meat truck just like you haven't brought a guy over since you were four. Then if we're including our cousin and our friends then yeah you have."
"Gee who got you pissed?"
"Well if you're honestly asking I was having an awful morning to start with because Monica wouldn't shut up, either way, and I kept losing concentration-
"Ew get on with your rant that doesn't want to make me puke."
"-And because of Liam I lost my concentration since I was rudely interrupted some clumsy girl at the coffee shop bumped into me getting her sandwich's meat juice all over me but she was pretty cute-"
"-Wait how did I make you lose concentration?" Liam said confusedly.
Alexander shushed Liam and continued with his story.
"-I swear I have seen her before, she was very cute did I mention that but that didn't stop her from wishing she fell with the sandwich "subtracting" me from the situation."
The room-filling with laughter, while Alexander's mouth gaped open.
"What the fuck Alex you really know how to get along with the ladies." Liam laughed hysterically.
"Honestly, I hope to meet her one day- and to thank her," Jazmine said laughing as she roughed up Alexander's hair.
"Seriously, guys, I think this is serious who would compare someone to something like a sandwich falling on the floor that's just cruel."
"Says the coldhearted killer himself" Elijah secretly smirking at his remark.
"I may be a killer but at least I show my emotions while doing it, unlike some people." I stared at Liam as he sat opposite me expressionless usual.
"They don't call me Heartless Gray for nothing." he let out a small chuckle.
"Oh, so I see you're finally liking the nickname now. I wonder if you dyed your hair back to brown or black instead of your platinum hair what will your victims call you, "Elijah said as he roughed up Liam's hair.
"I don't like the nickname it's just what people call me because no one knows my name," he said as he had his eyes on his phones, turning it Elijah.
"Oh shit! Forgot about that. It's getting late we have to hurry and get to the meeting before they think we are planning something. So I think it's best you shower from your little event last night." Elijah said while looking me up and down with disgust.
"It's not even my fault-"
"Save the excuses and hurry!" Both Liam and Elijah said in unison.
Sounds of their cars slowly driving on the dirt road towards the warehouse echoed. It was a warehouse mainly surrounded by abandoned houses that looked worn down just by taking one look at them.
Before entering Liam and Elijah looked around separately, Liam checking if he could hear anything inside the warehouse and Elijah checked the nearest houses. While looking he found another dirt road with leftover tire marks that look like separate vehicles. They weren't his, Liam's or Alexander's cars since they followed each other.
Liam and Elijah regrouped back to the warehouse walking near Alexander's car while they talked about what they got from their search.
Liam spoke in Russian just in case someone could hear him." So I have an idea of how the building is and who's in there atleast three people or more." Liam and I motioned to Elijah to tell us what he found.
"Oh while I was searching to see if anyone was in the houses I found some tire tracks on a separate dirt road that looked very new. The area felt very warm even though it's freezing out here, the spaces of the tire marks say they are SUV tires.
"Okay, we're not certain if it is an ambush but I think we all know itis. I think we should try not to die tonight because one of us wasn't careful."Liam and Elijah nodded as I got out of the car.
We entered as if we were entering a room with no one inside even though there were. In the warehouse, we made sure to look around to see nothing but huge crates as the lights flickered.
"Welp this is not creepy at all," I said in a sarcastic tone."This place seems kinda empty and dark."
"Welp, there are some crates that we can sit on and wait until they arrive." Elijah pointed at the strangely placed crates.
"I'm pretty sure this isn't gonna end well," I said as I got a little bored of waiting for the ambush.
"Yeah but still at least they can greet us and say sorry for leaving us alone for so long."
"Yeah, I agree." Out of nowhere, a rough-looking man who looked as if he was in his mid-twenties said popping up from behind a crate. He threw a knife aiming at Liam's head, but he dodged it as if nothing had happened.
He ran up to us trying to distract us from the other four guys but before they can do anything Liam pulled out his gun, shooting the man three times in his chest. Elijah saw two of the other guys and fought them while I handled the other two guys who were very equal in hand to hand combat as I was. Liam sat on the crates as we handled the others.
"Dude what the hell atleast help!"
Liam nodded pulling out his gun and shooting one of my guys and one of Elijah's.
"Oh, how thoughtful."I angrily pulled out my gun, shooting him in the head.
Liam smirked. I walked up to him to ask him why he didn't help he mouthed 'I'll tell you later'. Soon after Elijah got tired of his guy and stabbed him.
"Welp I thought he would atleast last a little longer." He said wiping the guy's blood off his knife.
I and Liam chuckled at his response but was interrupted by stomping. There were atleast nine more guys but they looked like the other guys I fought earlier but equal to me in height and built more like me.
"Shit I thought I wasn't gonna have to try hard."
"Welp, you guess wrong," Elijah said in an annoyed tone. I'm guessing her thought the same.
Liam pulled his katana from his side, running up to the nine guys, swinging flawlessly as usual. By the time he was done he had killed six of them while we handled the other three. There was one more left, but before I or Elijah could deal with him Liam punches him to the ground.
"You should know who I am from the hair color so I advise you to run along and tell your leader he's on my death list and tell Max we're done with his games," he said in a strong tone even I was scared and it sure made the guy way more frightened than I am.
The guy got up looked to see if anyone was alive but none remained but himself. He ran out as soon as possible, we heard a car revving which made it clear there was another guy.
Liam started to speak to break the silence. "Okay, now that that's over Alexander to critique you on your hand to hand combat it sucks you're much better with guns but sometimes they can't always help you which is why tomorrow at ten we will be sparring."
"Ugh I am too tired for this you and I have school tomorrow I'm just gonna head home. You guys coming or you gonna wait on the cleanup crew."
"We'll stay for a while you can rest up," Liam said as he started to light his cigarette.
Alexander's car pulled off into the darkness on his way home, while Liam and Elijah waited for the cleanup crew. It continued with Liam staring at the moonlit sky filled with so many stars.
Elijah finally broke the silence."-So she's starting her first day at school and I need you to keep an eye on her just in case."
Liam nodded nonchalantly as he smoked his cigarette.
"I really want her to be safe she is still dealing with the grief and-"
"I know I'm gonna make sure she's safe but I will still let her have her privacy after all she is still a teenager growing into a woman."Liam blurted out.
"Okay, thanks dude I just can't let her get hurt not before I tell her the truth," Elijah said as he calmed himself down.
"I know you will have time to tell her, trust me," Liam softly said as he looked at a less worried Elijah. He roughed Elijah's hair which made them both start to laugh.
The cleanup crew arrived to clean up the bloody mess and to return the bodies to their rightful owners. Shortly after they left, Elijah and Liam left behind each other heading home.
