Topher's POV
The elevator doors slide open.
It's all on me now.
A man in a heavy coat comes out of the elevator and makes his way to Violet's room. I, as stealthy as can be, crawl under the reception desk to her room door.
From what I can see in the dimness, the guy is holding an empty syringe over Violet who's still lying in bed. He pulls some air into the needle and I take that as my cue. I place the gun Alex handed me on the back of his head and pull back the hammer.
"Alex," he speaks as he dares place the needle in her arm, as Violet's arm flinches I grab him in a choke hold.
"Guess again, bitch," I whisper in his ear.
I drag him out the room, feeling like Bruce Willis, I make him put his hands on the wall in the hall outside the room. I pat him down and put the two guns I found on him in the back of my pants.
"If you turn around I'll blow your fucking head off," I tell him.
"It's okay Topher, I thought you'd be here."
I push him to the ground and he falls flat on his stomach.
"Get up," I tell him as I step closer. "Face me. Now turn around," I smirk as Alex comes out of a room behind us with a fire extinguisher in hand.
Alex's POV
Once Michael turns around, I swing the fire extinguisher up under his chin to his face, he falls on his ass.
"Alex," Topher spoke then threw a gun to me.
"Thanks, mate," I nod as he headed back to Violet, he shuts and locks the door.
"How much longer do we have until the staff comes back?" I ask Michael. "You really managed to pull this off, it's like a movie!" I cheer.
"What are you gonna kill me or something? Do it," he said.
"Get up off your pathetic ass," I ordered.
Michael stood up, a bit dizzy but he made sure to maintain his posture, can't look weak now.
"I should've just let your father die," he spoke.
"What the fuck did you just say?" I ask as I pull the gun up to his face.
Violet's POV
"Violet," a startled Topher came running in.
A prick on the inside of my elbow woke me, but the voices made me keep my eyes shut and hold my breath.
I take the needle out and throw it across the room as soon as Topher shuts the door.
"Violet," he begins again. "Alex told me everything."
I just look at him wide-eyed, in awe.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know, I mean he's still a horrible guy for getting you mixed into this-"
"He didn't get me mixed into anything, if anything he's protecting me, Topher."
"Okay, I know, you're right, I'm sorry-"
"The leader, the kingpin, he's here isn't he?" I ask, a simple nod from Topher follows.
"Shit, how many floors up are we?" I begin to get up frantically.
"Violet, relax, Alex is taking care of it."
With that sentence I make a run towards the door but Topher is too quick for me and he has an arm around my waist before I can even get there. He pushes me down on the bed and hands me a gun from the back of his pants.
