The Love From Vengeance

Chapter 11



he robber hastily shrugged off Luke’s hand and pointed his gun at him again. “Hey, don’t think i’m playing around!”

“Calm down, buddy. There is no need to get so worked up. Just tell me the amount, and I’ll give it to you. Let’s wrap up this conversation quickly.”

“Sorry, but I don’t operate that way.”

“Well, there’s always a first time for everything.” Luke maintained his plastic smile.

“Shut the hell up and get down on your knees!” The robber growled, and Luke slowly complied, hands raised. “Same goes for all of you! Get down on your knees!”

Everyone began to follow his orders, even his accomplices. We all knelt down.

“Except you guys, you morons!” The robber scolded his men.

“Right, right,” they responded, promptly standing back up.

I noticed one of the robbers staring at me. Uncomfortable, I averted my gaze. Yeah, I felt totally uneasy the moment these black dogs barged into the hall.

The leader of the gang focused on Luke; the gun was still trained on him. “You cherish your life, don’t you?”

“Is that a question you really want to ask?” Luke replied playfully. “Can we just cut to the chase?”

“I’m the one in charge here!” The robber shouted immediately.

But you’re not the one with the money,” Luke taunted him.

“You better be grateful I haven’t blown your brains out.”

“Well, if you kill me, how are you going to get your hands on the money?” Luke smirked sarcastically.

“I don’t know, but I’ll be satisfied seeing your lifeless body on the floor.”

Andre’s phone started ringing, catching the attention of the robber. But with our hands raised, he couldn’t turn off the phone.

“Whose phone is that?” the robber asked, locating the source of the sound. He approached us, annoyed, and struck Andre’s head with his gun.

Andre collapsed, and as he slowly got up, the robber hit him again, causing him to lose consciousness.

“Andre!” I cried out in fear, catching the robber’s attention.

“Well, well, well, who do we have here?” The robber slowly spoke, forcefully holding my chin. “You’re going to be a good one in bed.”

How repulsive! I glared at him, filled with disgust. He better keep his disgusting thoughts to himself.

“You’re going to be a real treat.” The robber’s finger moved along my neck, about to reach for my chest, but I bit him so hard that he yelped in pain.

“You crazy bitch!” He gave me a hard slap, and

I have to say, it was really, really painful. “Just wait until I deal with you!”

“How dare you lay your filthy hands on her?”

11 CRAZY CONVOS

LUKE’S POV

This goddamn robber turned around, and the look I gave him was way out of this world. You could call it a death stare, and if looks could kill, I was pretty sure this guy would have been dead by now.

There was no doubt that I didn’t like Ariel, but what he did back there really displeased me. I didn’t know, but I couldn’t just stand and watch her in pain.

“What did you just say?” The robber asked as the both of us eventually stood up. “I can see you have some fucking nerve, huh?”

“If you want money, I’ll give you money, but don’t you dare touch her,” I told him, calm and threatening at the same time. I narrowed my eyes down to Ariel, and she just gazed at me in confusion. I know she must be wondering why I was helping her out, and I too was wondering the same thing.

The robber laughed in disbelief. “You know I can shoot you right now, don’t you?”

“You think I’m scared of dying?” I came back. “I’ve had a lot to lose all these years. Don’t think that I value my life that much.”

“Oh, so you want me to kill you?”

“I don’t wish for that, but if you want to, go ahead. But let me just make something clear to you: don’t you dare touch her. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

“Why?” The robber glanced at Ariel and set his eyes back on me. “Is she your wife?”

“You ask too many questions.” I generated a pungent smile as I arched an eyebrow. “Don’t you think it’s high time you shut up?”

His men pointed their guns at me immediately, but he lifted his hand up, signaling them to

halt. They all took their guns down.

“Aren’t you scared of me?” The robber inquired.

“If I were scared of you, do you think I would be saying all these things right now? Or do you think i’d be standing on my feet while everyone is on their knees?”

He laughed inwardly. “I like this boldness of yours.”

“I don’t want you to.”

“You know I have a gun loaded with bullets.”

“I already made it clear to you that I’m not scared. So to hell with

you and

your weapon.”

“Oh, that does it!” He snarled and pointed his gun at me. “I’m sending you straight to hell! Tell the devil I said hi.”

“I don’t think that’s going to be necessary.” I gave him the usual spurious smile.

“Why do you say so?” He asked. And with his tone, it was clear he was confused.

“I don’t know.” I shrugged. “I just have the feeling that you’ll be the one paying the devil a visit.”

“He made a sound with his gun, like he was fully prepared to pull the trigger. “Oh, you son of

a…

“Freeze!” The police showed up and began firing bullets at the robbers, leading to a shootout.

Taking advantage of the situation, I quickly punched the robber, who was standing close to me. I elbowed his belly, kneeled his balls, and snatched his gun from him.

After throwing the gun away, I advanced towards Ariel and grabbed her hands. “Come on, let’s get out of here.”

“I can’t leave Andre here.” She tapped Andre to wake him up, but the man was still unconscious.

“Are you out of your mind? You could get killed.”

“It’s not like you care about me anyway,” she muttered.

“Seriously?”

“Just leave me alone!” She pushed my hand away. “There is no way I’m following you.”

“You’d rather die?” I couldn’t help but feel concerned about her.

“If that’s the case, then so be it. But walking through that door with you? Not happening.”

“Just kill this pride of yours and follow me.” I grabbed her hands again, and she struggled for me to let go, but my grip was too tight.

“I said let go!” She bawled. And then a bullet was fired in our direction. But we were lucky it hit neither of us, and the insensible guy was lucky too.

“See what I’m saying?” I gave Ariel a knowing look.

“I’m still not following you.” She still decided to be stubborn.

I breathed out deeply. “Okay, that does it.” I got up and carried her promptly.

“Let me go!” She hit my back, but I held her tight, and that was how I carefully made my way out of the hall, carrying her on my shoulder.

The moment we were outside, she bit my shoulder an hard that I had to let go of her.

“You scumbag!” She was about to hit me, but I captured her hand. She attempted to use the other hand to hit me as well, but it was still the same result. I was now holding both of her hands.

“Let me go!” Ariel snarled, humping to get her hands off mine, but I refused to let go.

“Just calm down, will you?” Theld her tight while she continued to use all of her might so she could cease my grip. And the next thing that happened? She landed on my chest. I didn’t even know how, but I was quick to wrap my hands around her.

She finally ceased her bootless efforts, and the both of us are now looking into each other’s eyes. She was just as beautiful as he was five years ago. And yes, I was captivated by her glamour, ensnarled in her charm, and lost in her comeliness. Of course, she was one pretty lady, but there was no way I would lose my heart to her.

While the shootout continued, we didn’t take away the gaze from each other’s eyes. I didn’t know what was going on, but it seemed like something had taken full control of me.

Ariel slowly looked down at my arms, which were wrapped around her waist. She set her
