Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18

My Protector

Ethan’s eyes spotted the glow in the dark symbol but when he arrived there, he was a few steps behind

his men who had already arrived.

“Hayden!” Ethan called his friend’s name loudly.

“I’m fine!” Hayden replied as his men crowded around him like a group of human shields.

“You need to tell me all about how you got out of that one…” Ethan teased when he came to Hayden’s

side.

Men from Silva surrounded Ethan to provide protection. It seemed that both men were in quite good

shape given all the fighting that was going on.

“Is Malissa out yet?” Hayden asked Ethan.

“Not yet…but she’s very close to the exit,” Ethan replied while he anticipated Hayden’s outburst.

“What?! Why is she still in here? Luka’s team will be here soon,” Hayden roared in shock.

“Relax. She’s with a bunch of your men. She’ll be fine,” Ethan replied with certainty.

Hayden broke through the row of men surrounding him and made a run for it. Ethan watched Hayden’s

rushed movement in amazement at how foolish his actions were.

“Hayden just ran off. Snipers provide cover. You all! Follow Hayden, we’ll clean up things here on this

side,” Ethan spoke through the microphone before instructing Hayden’s men.

Why did this warehouse have to be so damn large and long?

…

Hayden knew that he was making a dangerous and very risky move, but he also knew that the reason

why Malissa was not yet outside was probably because she was stubbornly refusing to leave. He

cursed the fact that she wouldn’t listen to his instructions even in this kind of dire situation. His men are

probably struggling to deal with her and because they didn’t want to hurt her or use too much force,

they were probably still struggling with her somewhere close to the exit.

Malissa has to get out before Luka and his men arrived and things get truly violent. From what Hayden

could see there weren’t that many men in the opposition gang and by now, he bet that most were

already dead or heavily wounded. Almost all men close to him were shot down by snipers while they

panicked about the sudden explosion. After his men provided him with a gun, he managed to kill two

enemies that were close to him. The fun ended right after that for him because too many of his men

along with Ethan’s men arrived and cleaned everything up before acting as human shields. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Hayden could see the matching glowing symbol that he had on him in the distance and realized to his

utter disappointment and worry that Malissa was indeed still inside the warehouse. He clicked his

tongue before quickly making his way towards here. Why does it have to be this dark?

“Malissa!” Hayden called her name loudly to get her attention.

…

I think I heard someone calling my name. Could it really be?

“Hayden!” I screamed his name loudly.

I called his name over and over again. Although I couldn’t see him, I had a feeling that Hayden was

close.

“Why are you still here?!” the voice that I had been longing to hear yelled so close to me that I

screamed in shock.

How did Hayden get here?

His hands were on my arms as he shook me. I could see his face so close to me and even in the

darkness, I could see, sense, and hear his anger.

“How am I supposed to leave?! I was waiting for you!” I screamed back.

Is that so hard for him to understand?

I started crying again and I wasn’t sure why I was crying. Maybe I was too relieved and so happy that

we were finally reunited. Although it wasn’t that long ago since we were both together, our separation

this time made me feel like we had been apart for years. I missed him so much and I couldn’t stop my

tears from falling again.

“Stop crying. We’re getting out now!” Hayden ordered.

Although his voice was stern and packed with irritation, he pulled me into his embrace and hugged me

tightly. I buried my face against his chest and cried some more.

“Men! Lead the way…” Hayden commanded with his arms still wrapped tightly around me.

This time I had no objections to leaving this forsaken place. The sound of men shouting, and the sound

of gunshot still rang out randomly here and there. I hadn’t been paying much attention to what was

going on, but it seemed that the fighting had died down. Hopefully, the men managed to deal with the

enemy. I didn’t want anyone to die, and the concept of fighting and death was still very much beyond

me. The place smelled of sweat and blood.

“You’re not getting away. Torex!”

A man voice cut through the chaos around us. I turned my head around just in time to see the tall man

who had escorted me before standing very close to us with a gun pointed our way. I opened my mouth

to scream but no voice came out. Everything happened to fast that I wasn’t sure what had happened. I

felt the pressure of what must have been Hayden’s hand against the back of my head, pushing my face

into his chest as he wrapped his arms around me tighter. Swiftly, I felt myself being spun around.

A gunshot rang out.

It was probably at that moment that it finally hit me that Hayden had just shielded me with his body.

“Hayden!” I screamed his name loudly.

A few rounds of gunshot rung out around us, but I didn’t care about that anymore. All I cared about was

the man that was in my arms.

“Hayden…” I whispered his name as I feared for the worst.

Did he get hit just now?

“I’m fine. Let’s go…” Hayden replied.

His arms loosened from around my body before he grabbed my arm and pulled me roughly behind him.

Hayden dragged me out of the exit with him and we found ourselves outside the warehouse. It was

dark and very windy outside.
