Chapter 33

( Rosalyn's POV )

The place is on fire and the front of the house literally was blown up. Fantastic!

" Rose, I want you to bring our suitcases from upstairs, I'll get the back bag. "

" Okay. You better hurry up; the living room is soon to be on fire next. "

Robert nodded and I scurried upstairs. I went to his room first as it was the first to come in sight. I quickly grabbed his suitcase and did the same with mine.

When I was back downstairs, Robert had the big back bag on his shoulder and the fire soon was travelling towards us to the kitchen.

" C'mon, we'll go through the back door in the kitchen. " I spoke and turned.

" Wait ! "

I gave him a confused look.

" If they set the house on fire, then I think either they're waiting outside for us to escape or waiting for us to burn. If we got caught, this bag on my shoulder here can't be taken from us and all the luggage we have here will make it harder to escape. "

" So we just leave everything behind?! "

" Yes ."

He shifted the bag on his back and grabbed our suitcase, quickly making his way to the office. I followed in confusion.

He pushed the leg of the desk, opening the basement door. The next moment our suitcases were thrown in there and the back bag was put gently on the top of the staircase. He came back and pushed the leg back to it's place.

" C'mon. We'll come back for them later. Oh and if you have your bracelet remove it and leave it here. "

" No! We should keep it. If we got caught they would be able to find us. "

" If we got caught we'll go through a thorough inspection. They can't have it. The rest of the team and the mission will be in trouble. "

He got a point. I sighed and did as told then followed him to the kitchen that was now full of dancing flames.

" Too late. " I panicked.

The place was falling down around us, smoke and flames everywhere. Robert was looking around frantically and I was coughing the smoke out of my lungs.
His eyes landed on the melted box hanged on the kitchen wall. He hurried towards it, jumping and ducking through the fire.

I was standing there, wide eyed at the idiot.

He snatched the box and threw it on the floor. He stepped on it, breaking it open, then got out the fire blanket. He threw it over his head and ran back to me. I got under the blanket too and we pushed through the fire to the now fallen back door.
Once we finally made it out, he threw the blanket away, hands on his knees, coughing to get the smoke he inhaled out.
His face covered in black and I bet mine too. His eyes searched the area quickly.
I glanced around too and noticed a black Jeep at the end of the street and another on front of the house.

" C'mon. " I talked, making my way out of our back yard and Robert following behind.

" I think we'll be on the run for a while. "
Robert said once we rounded the corner and I bet he ate them back once we were greeted by two towering men.

We both halted to a stop and took a few steps back before turning around to face..... or more face to chest another two. Moments and another two rounded the corner.

BLACK 's men appear in couples these days.
Sarcasm is not called for in this situation my dear. A voice inside me snapped.

" Rose, have you ever heard of the saying ' abundance overcome courage ' ? " He whispered to me.
