Chapter 317 - Team of six (6) (1/2)

Aiden looked at Sarah with a complex expression. He understands that this affected her the most, and she should have a choice how she wants to deal with this.

”You promised not to do anything reckless... and that you will not do anything I don't approve.” He reminded her.

”That is why we are talking... I can't do this alone. I need you.” She was sincere, and it reached him. She saw his resistance crumble.

”I will be watching you... you must listen to me.” Aiden cupped her face in his hands. ”If I say get out, you get out. Understand?”

Sarah nodded and reached into her bag. ”I have four left, you take two.” She handed him two filled syringes. ”Anywhere in the neck will do.”

Aiden looked at two syringes. ”At this point, I'm tempted to use it on you, so that you stay here.”

”You will not dare.”

”No, I won't.” He sighed.

Sarah wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. She was anxious like never before, probably because she ended up in the hospital twice because of Philip. Aiden's embrace and the sweetness of his kiss calmed her down. She broke the kiss and leaned her head onto his chest inhaling deeply that woody-flowery fragrance that she loves.

”Keep your eyes on me.” She whispered and turned around, walking back into the club.

Aiden looked after her for a second, and then went back into the truck and focused on video feed from the camera.

Sarah entered through the back exit and headed back to the bar area. ”Where is he?” She asked.

”Still at the bar.” Aiden responded.

Sarah ordered a cold sparkling water and waited for him to notice her. Less than a minute later, she heard a man's voice, ”Such a lovely young lady... are you looking for some company tonight?”

Sarah turned around and faced an unfamiliar face. ”No, thank you.” She rejected his advances.

He didn't leave. ”You came here by yourself, and don't want company? I don't believe that.” Man was obviously under the influence of alcohol or drugs... or both. ”Why don't you just tell me straight, that you don't find me handsome?”

Sarah looked at him swaying slightly. ”I don't find you handsome. How about you leave me alone?”

”Listen, missy... I can tell that you don't know what a real man is when you see one... ” He reached with his arm to grab her.

Sarah hit his pressure point just below elbow, so swiftly, that he didn't see it happen. His face twisted from pain for a second before his whole arm went numb.

”And I can tell that you don't know when you should back off.” Sarah's voice was smooth and soothing, but the man found it chilling. He nodded with terror in his eyes and walked backward from her.

”You are amazing.” Sarah heard Aiden's praise. It made her smile. ”OK. He is moving... coming from your left.”

Sarah gave a small nod.

”My, my... who do I see?” Philip approached Sarah.
