To kill an Enemy
As he opened his eyes, gazing at him was Jorge's with a look of fear and horror etched on his face. Was Jorge killed also?
" Anton! Anton!! Are you okay? Can you hear me? Were you hit?"Jorge inquired
Antonio looked into his eyes and smiled, "no bro I don't think so and I don't know how that is possible?" He said and then he passed out.
Rays of sunshine shone into the hospital room where Antonio de Castillo was admitted as he opened his eyes to see Jorge sitting beside his bed, blood still on his clothes as he waited for his friend to regain consciousness.
" Hey, Amigos!" Jorge said with relief in his voice
" I thought I lost you there!" Jorge said while smiling
"Same here bro! I thought it was the end... He had me gunned down, I heard the gunshot sounds!" Antonio narrates calmly
" No bro, Jorge replied, those shots were mine! I hit her before she took her shot" Jorge said
" You hit who? Her?" But our intel says the White Angel is a man!" Antonio said in shock and disbelief
"Yes bro, that's what the intel says, but the person I shot yesterday was a woman!" Jorge further explains to Antonio, who was still groaning in pain on the hospital bed
'A woman? Anton thought to himself, so I fought and was defeated by a woman?'
THE WHITE ANGEL, MY WORTHY ENEMY, IS A WOMAN!, These were the thoughts of Antonio with a look of disappointment etched on his face...
******************************************
It was about 6:00 pm when Susie B got home from the diner. The nightlife of Costa de Sol was about to begin. Neon light from bars and clubs coming on, young men and women getting ready for a night of fun, even the diner would be full by now, but Susie had asked for permission to go home.
Mr. Gio had graciously granted her the night off so she could go home and rest.
But rest, he knew, was the last thing on Susie's mind.
Susie had heard that Moreno was in town and the knowledge of that alone was able to loose any nuts she still had in her brains.
Susie hurriedly cleaned up the house, set the table with candle lights and red roses. Champagne was on Ice and a pack of cuban cigars laid on the table as she knew his taste in cigars.
Then she hastily got out of her dirty work clothes and climbed into the bathtub full of scented water. Reno (As she called him) cannot see me this dirty; she thought to herself.
She began to fantasize about the night she would want to have but midway through her fantasies, Susie was suddenly startled as she saw the silhouette of a man walk towards her from the shadows of her corridor.
"Who's there?" Susie asked... Her voice was confident and without an iota of fear.
"Expecting someone?" said the voice as Moreno emerged from the shadows of the corridor, one hand in his pocket and the other tending to the Cuban cigar she left on the table, it already lit and glowing in his mouth.
"You startled me!" Susie said as she sunk deeper into the bathtub, trying to hide her excitement at seeing Reno.
"Is that even possible?" Moreno asked... a mischievous smile on his face
"With you, it is" Susan replied... her cheeks turned pink as she noticed him gazing at her with desire in his eyes
She tried so hard to hide her excitement upon seeing Reno, but he could see through her disguise but decided to play her waiting game.
He knew who would come out victorious in the end.
He leaned on the frame of the door, his gaze fixed steadily on the water in the tub. He knew she would eventually have to come out.
He was eager to see that body again, to hold her in his arms, feel her warmth so close to his. Maybe he was finally ready to settle down and Susan Boyle was his perfect match!
"He still wants me," she thought to herself...
With this confidence she rose from the bathtub, her wet, naked body dropping all over the floor but she didn't mind...
She walked slowly towards Reno. He seemed to have become immobile with his eyes fixed on her and his mouth wide open in awe, how the cigar didn't drop to the floor, Susie had no idea.
It was as if time stood still for a moment, and then suddenly with one swift motion, Reno grabbed her with one arm and pulled her close. She could smell his natural musk mixed with his perfume and alcohol all in one.
This drove her crazier as their lips locked in a kiss. She ran her fingers through his hair as he squeezed her even tighter.
And in one flowing move, he swept her off her feet and headed towards the bedroom to make passionate love to her.
**********************************
The sounds of car horns woke Susie up from her sleep, beside her lay Moreno fast asleep. She gazed at him for some time as he slept peacefully beside her.
If only he know who she was and what she was about to do. He had no idea the world she lived in. Tonight she was going to kill a man. A man who deserved what was coming his way
She got up, walked into the bathroom, stepped on a distinct tile located behind the toilet corner and a secret door open up which led to a secret room full of guns and armory.
When she was fully kitted up, she looked in the mirror. She was clothed in an all-black leather vest and pants. Guns holstered I'm both sides and countless other sharp weapons.
Finally, she picked up her double-barrel pump action gun and stepped out of the secret room.
Reno was still sleeping peacefully on the bed as she stealthily walked past him into the corridor.
As she walked towards the exit door she took a deep breath, picked up a white scarf, threw it around her neck, and exited the apartment.
She got on her power bike and sped off into the night.
****************************
It was just past 2 am when she arrived at her targets' residence.
She put on her mask and expertly scaled over the fence while evading the cameras and motion detectors placed at strategic points in the compound.
Suddenly she heard a loud blast like that of an explosion. Someone else had made a move on her target! This would put her mission in jeopardy! "Who else wanted her target dead
Three gunshots were the next sounds she heard and after a while two other shots... It was getting heated in there and she needed to do something fast before they attracted unnecessary attention. As she moved toward the entrance of the house she saw three men fully armed like soldiers going for battle stationed at the door.
"Amateurs!" she muttered to herself with disdain...
She casually stepped out of the darkness and walked towards the three men at the entrance.
"Hey, guys! Susie called out to them.
" Who goes there?" One of the assassins asked as they all pointed their rifles in her direction.
"Do you guys need all these toys just to take down one man ?" she mockingly asked...
"Stop right there!" Another of the men shouted.
Susie stopped and raised both arms in surrender... Their guns were aimed directly at her so had to wait for them to get close enough before she made her move.
One of the men remained at the steps of the entrance while the other two approached her cautiously.
They didn't notice the pen knife behind her right hand or that that one of her handguns was unholstered.
Immediately they within arms' length, in one swift, slick move, she slit both their throats with the penknife and used their body as shields as their man opened fire on her. Two quick shots to the head and the third guy hit the deck.
She started hearing rapid gunfire as she walked down the hallway... "How many men did they send," she thought to herself... Suddenly the gunfire ceased...
She silently crept in on the men and slit their throats from behind, one after the other. She could do this in her sleep!
There was blood splattered all over the wall and dead men left in her wake.
Just about she was about to make her next move, the remaining men began to fall to the floor
She quickly hid and waited for whoever was responsible for their deaths.
She readied her pump-action and sure enough, an image of a man appeared on top of the stairs.
This was her chance to finish him off! She didn't expect it to be this easy.
She aimed ready to blast off his head and suddenly her eyes opened in shock, her jaw dropped I'm in disbelief, it felt as if she was seeing a ghost!
