1 Chapter 1: The Intertwined Fate

Sabrina Dubois's POV

Ugh, when is this lecture going to end? I should have not come, should have not to get up from the bed. Why am I torturing myself?

It was at the end of the semester of the final year. I was in the Microbiology major and have been dying to get out of here so that I will do my own research and get my name to be put in History book so that people can know me. But of course, that dream has to wait until have my own firm and be an advanced researcher in my field, after I go through my internship, IF I happen to have one or even got interviewed for one.

The lecturer, Mr. Louis was talking about what will be on the final exams and he was talking about congratulating the graduates that will be having the graduation ceremony this Sunday. I smiled to myself, thinking that my parents will be there to see me, giving the valedictorian speech for the representation of Class 2019. I already memorized the speech that I will be giving and practice it so many times to make sure no mistake during the big day. I can't wait to rub it in the face of my other siblings as it will be my greatest achievement of all time.

My mind was wandering somewhere else as I can't focus what Mr. Louis was talking about. I just thinking about my lifeless, boyfriend less life that will end in a few days' time. I took a glance around the lecture hall. Some people are sleeping in the back, some are texting and surfing the internet, and some are, well, just not present for the final day of the lecture. This is what you get for trying to be a good student, my subconscious reminded me of how stupid I to come to class just to look at someone that will never notice me.

Kevin Mirashi, teaching assistant or TA for fancy word, was the only reason that I get out of the bed today. He looked so rugged in the faded black jeans, red button-down with black denim jacket up to his sleeves. I looked at him all the time in class, hoping that he would notice me. But, what a shame, he already has a girlfriend and in the Genetics major. I looked at his girlfriend once. She had the bombshell body like Victoria Secret Angel, and she was a smart ass too. Plus, she was French that are known to be romantic but hey, I am French too. I wish I was her and I wish that someday, someone will see me for who I am and accept me with his heart and soul even with my flaws and flows.

Well, at least you have your cat at home, Sabby, who likes you no matter what. Yeah, because I change his water, gave him food, and clean up after his shit. If this fucking lifestyle continues, I might end up being a cat lady, like my aunty Andrea. Ugh, I thought with a shudder. I definitely need to find a good guy to marry him. Who knows, he might be just under my noses...

Somewhere in Latvia...

Nathan White's POV

"Vamonos, vamonos, él se escapa!" someone was shouting in vain to get the person that was running away from that dreadful dungeon. I was carrying a hard drive that has all the information that can be valuable if it falls into the wrong hands and sell them through the black market. The Doomsday is inevitable. Someone has to get to it before that ever happened.

That is the sole reason why I, Nathan White was sent by the CIA to get the hard drive. It contains all the vital information about the USA government. Their achievement, acknowledgment, alliances and also the dirty secrets that they keep from the public eyes. They cannot expose it as it will be much greater panic and it not definitely about how aliens were going to attack the Earth.

I was running so quickly like the lightning that it made my catchers were having a hard time to keep up with him. Not that they don't have the urge to do it, they just out of shape, carrying big guns around themselves and just a little bit not good on the brains. Meanwhile, compared to me, who was lean, muscular and fit that made all the ladies fell head over heels for me, I don't even look in their way.

Sure, having a double life can be good but also dangerous at the same time. What if the person that I was dating knew about my secret and expose all of the terrorist organizations that put a bounty on my head? It will not please the government and that just for telling who I am!

I was breathing heavily from running. I was standing at the edge of the building rooftop before looking down, 200 ft towards the ground. I looked back and saw that my chasers were closing in on me. Their leader stepped forward and looked at me, murderously.

"It no uses to run now. Give me the hard drive and you will be having a lot less painful death, gratitude from me," the leader said with Spanish accent before his goon gives him his gun to shoot at Nathan.

"Well, thanks for the offer but I think I still want to live for another day," I said without having difficulty speaking with courage. I was at the edge of the rooftop that with a slight push from the wind will cause him to stumble to my own death.

"No use to fight me now. we got you surrounded. You have nowhere to go," the criminal said with mischief in his eyes. "Por favor, make this easy and we be on our merry way," he said.

I smiled before speaking, "Over my dead body," before jumping off the building and jumped to my death. All the criminals were looking at the edge of the building and there was no trace of me. Then, someone shouted Freeze from behind just to see the startled criminals as they were surrounded by polices. They were arrested for money laundering, killing, kidnapping, and ****. It sure was a good day for Latvia to be freed from one of the criminal gangs that have been living in Latvia for years.

"Good job, White. Now I want you to get out of the country," my boss said as I was on the way to get to my hotel. After every mission, I needed to get out of the country as quickly as possible.

"where to next, sir?" I asked as I knew that my mission will never end until I retired like my father who was also worked for the government.

"I want you to get back here, in the United States Of America. I have a new assignment for you and your partner will be from the Red Arrows organization," my boss said as I was gripping the steering wheels.

"You want me to work with the vigilantes that don't follow any of the international law, sir?" I asked as I knew it would piss him off even more.

"Yes, you have anything against that, White?" He asked as I was gripping my wheels and I made the sharp turn as I stopped in front of the hotel that I have stayed in Latvia for the past couple of days as it has been my port to uncover the crime organization that I took down just now.

"I don't know sir, would they be able to follow the rules of the international law and crime for justice," I asked. He was quite the whole time.

"See, even you can't tell if they will be good or not," I said as I stuffed my backpack with my shit as I was ready to leave since before the takedown.

"no more question in this matter, White. You will be receiving your partner in the United States but you will not know who she is. This is to protect the confidentiality of the Red Arrow organization," he said.

"What so special about them any way that makes them conceal their identity," I asked as I was rolling my eyes.

"That was none of your concern, White. now. Leave the country and I will see you in the morning," he said before the line was cut off.

I took the flight from Latvia to the United States as I was in the flight for 15 hours as I can't stop thinking about the specialty of the Red Arrow organization. I was trying to get some information but it did not come up in my search.

"Bullocks," I said as I was trying to get some sleep not to think about it.

"Morning, sir," my driver said as I went inside the car and my boss was sitting in the car.

"how's the flight?" He asked as he looked at me.

"fine," I said before he gave me a dossier.

"This is your new assignment. You will be the CEO of the company as the terrorist was trying to develop some bioweapon and we just baited them with this company. Your partner will be working in the lab since she was advanced in that besides martial arts," he said.

"Sounds great," I said as I looked outside the car. My boss sighed before he looked at me.

"Look," I stopped him before he went on to rant more on me.

"Look, Alfred, I don't care, okay. Let's get this done with," I said as I looked outside again.

"you might want to reconsider about that, White," he said before I rolled my eyes at him as I don't understand what he was talking about.

"Soon, in time, you will," he said and I just wonder that he just read my mind.
