Vengeance For Jenny

Chapter Five

I didn't really feel comfortable just leaving. However, Jenny had not come out of her room, even after Eza and Jaden had shown up. I wasn't about to dive and get emotionally involved with a woman. The only woman I ever loved I couldn't have and I have been running from it since. There was no way I was going to get messed up for a girl I wanted to have a one-night stand with just so that I could pin her against the wall and teach her who was boss. I grab my jacket I had tossed on the couch. Looking back over my shoulder as I stepped out of the threshold. A weird feeling almost like a small headache moving in and pressure on my shoulders as I stood in place looking in as if a statue an unfamiliar feeling. I felt like I should stay which was all the more reason I should go. I grab the handle and close the door behind me flipping the lock on the knob from the inside before I close it all the way. I need to get away from here and to a bar.

It was so cold and my body aches so bad. I roll over noticing I had passed out on the floor of my room. I keep my eyes closed not daring to open them as the sun is already stinging them and I haven't even opened them yet it will be murder when I do. I had pressure in my sinuses and in the back of my head. I have a migraine as a punishment for crying myself to sleep now. I groan hearing an annoying vibration realizing that I woke to that sound. Slowly opening my eyes, I hold back the nausea from the world spinning and the pain in my head from my brain threatening to break free from my skull that confines it. I reach around trying to feel for my cell that has gotten buried among the mess all over my floor. It stops then starts again.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm coming, hold your horses already" I growl. Though I know they can't hear me.

After the third call back I find it under a stack of papers one with a name I don't recognize at all I grasp it eyes wide open with confusion. It was a birth certificate but it wasn't Miranda's. I click the answer button on my phone as the fourth call back comes.

"I don't take kindly to tardiness from my partners get your a.s.s in here or the deals off and you will have no chance of finding your kid." Maliki's voice growled lowly on the other end of the phone. I had no idea what time it was but I didn't take kindly to being talked to this was by any man.

"Fine then I don't need your help, I'll find her myself, just stay out of my way." I snap back.

"Oh, and just how do you plan to do that? I have some information you don't, I have connections, and I can actually defend myself, unlike a certain somebody."

"I can take care of myself," I growl back who the hell did this prick think he was with that god complex.

"Prove it and meet me at G.O.D training grounds in 15 minutes if you can beat me then I will tell Dodger your good to go and I'm off the hook. It's a win, win for the both of us." with that he hung up not even giving me a chance to reply.

I look at the birth certificate I had found Who the hell was Brittany and why had Miranda had it. Did Miranda once have a child and hid that fact from me? Is that why she kidnapped Becca. Looking at the date though that didn't add up. My brain was whirling with confusion. With Maliki now demanding we meet I didn't even have a second to really figure it out either. If he was going to be a hindrance, I was going to need to get rid of him by any means necessary.

I told her fifteen minutes though; I knew this was unrealistic with where she lived but I didn't sleep well last night and was a little pissed that she had when she finally answered my phone call. I use to be plagued by thoughts and dreams of Anna now they are replaced by this woman he was so close and so taboo. Maybe if I just had my way with her once this would be done and over with but that's not the case here, I can't just do that as we are partners and she's one of my best buds adopted kid sisters. Things I dreamt of doing to her with the girl I picked up for the night last night. The hunger I feel with that thought. My blood boils I need to find the child I nearly forgot with these thoughts which pisses me off more. I have always been about the mission. Here I am spacing it because I find myself so attracted to this typhoon who is so different from my ideal its nuts.

Fifteen minutes pass she still hadn't walked through the door I reach into my black cargo pants and pull out my phone tapping it to life. Scrolling to her name and hitting the call button. As I hear a screaming sound loud enough to wake the dead yelling shut up echo in the building. I even jump looking around. Jenny had just come through the door leggings and cami tank top with a jean vest that all fit her well and biker boots. I smirk as she pulls out her phone and hangs it up glaring at me.

"I'm here, would you shut up already." I watch her lips move softly even though she's practically hissing. Makes me want to bit them back. Especially with how she detests me so much and buts heads against me. It makes me want conquer her more. F.u.c.k me; what am I thinking I just said I couldn't do that. It's because she dressed like that. She did it on purpose. She is using her body to distract me so that I will lose the bet. I smirk down at the little vixen she almost had me.

"So, I see, and right on time." I smile and lie through my teeth. I watch her suddenly flush then glare at me.

"Don't play with me, you were just threatening me for being late." She hisses biting her bottom lip and looking down.

I lean in close to her ear so only she can hear me "Who's playing with who little girl, or are you going to tell me you always come to work dressed like this. If so remind me to come into the office a lot more often."

"Don't flatter yourself this is just easier to move in when I'm training, and It's harder to be grabbed onto by someone. It's for strategy purposes."

I raise an eyebrow in amus.e.m.e.nt "Yeah a strategy that's definitely what it is but not for what you're saying it is meant for in my opinion." I smirk at her. She turns even more red.

"I didn't dress like this to get you hot and bothered." She shouts out in frustration.

I chuckle turning on my heels to head to the bas.e.m.e.nt, "let's go, I haven't worked up a good sweat in the sparring arena in a while. Let's see what you got."
