ZADE.
“I'm so sorry | got you dragged into this.”
“Did you rent this property in your name?” | ask.
She shakes her head. “I'm trespassing... It was empty. | was just crashing here as | had nowhere else | could go.”
Adriana’s saying guiltily as she tries to walk, but she’s in a pretty bad state.
“We're a team,” Valerie replies, fixing a shirt she’s put on Ada.
“Alright ladies, let's go. I'll carry Ada, Val if you can help Adriana. | just need to burn this fucking place down. Do
you have anything you need to take?” | ask, looking at Adriana.
“There's a large gym bag under the bed. That's the main thing.”
| crouch down and pull it out as Valerie grabs her medical supplies and helps put Adriana’s arm around her
shoulders and holds her waist.

“Didn’t think this would be how our first meeting would go,” Adriana says to her as | flip open the bag.
Valerie chuckles. “It's memorable at least.”
“Zade that!-"
“I'm not taking anything withwithout searching,” I reply coldly, cutting Adriana off, but it's just cash,
bandages, sherbs, and a few other items, including her laptop. Zipping it up, | shoulder it, picking up the
items | had taken from the first two men.
“Do you think she’s going to be ok doctor?” Adriana asks as | pick up Ada.
“CallValerie. Her body is stabilising, but I'm not sure about her comatose state, especially since she’s been
in that state for a while,” Valerie explains gently.
| doubt she’ll wake up, but | don’t say anything, leading the way out of the room and downstairs.
“Goddess...” Valerie murmurs, and | don’t need to turn to know she’s sickened at the sight.
“Any other way out of here, aside from the front door?” | ask Adriana.
“There's a back gate that leads down to the alleyway,” she replies.

I nod, placing Ada down and head back upstairs. | just need a minute. | head upstairs to where | had placed the
items | had removed from the first bodies and pick up the two grenades. These are good, but | needed to make
sure that this place is completely destroyed.
| pile the bodies together in the hall before | enter the kitchen and turn the gas from the cooker on, hearing the
whistle as the room begins to smell.
“Let’s get out of here,” | say, lifting Ada once more. Unlocking the back door, | assess the area, before letting
Valerie step outside first.
“Get to the back gate now,” | order, carrying Ada to the gate, as Valerie and Adriana manage to unlock the gate
and step inside. | motion them to move further back and place Ada down along with the bag. “I'll be back.”
“Zade...”
| turn to Valerie, worry clear in her eyes. | reach over, caressing her cheek.
“I won't be long.”
She nods as | return to the kitchen and take out two grenades from my pocket. | pull the pins out of them

As much as I'd rather there be no trace of the bodies left, that’s not possible, but at least | can destroy as much
evidence as possible. Right now, my priority is getting the girls somewhere safe. This has gotten out of control.
The moment | tossed the grenades, | turned, running towards the back gate before they erupt. I'm thrown off my
feet by the impact, making Valerie cry out. “Zade!”
I'm good, baby girl." | reassure her as | break my fall and roll over before getting up and rushing through the
back gate as the second one goes off and pulls the gate shut.
“Keep going!” | command as we hurry down the alley, as | hear several explosions, the flames rising high into
the sky.
We move swiftly, sticking to the shadows until we reach the spot where my car is parked. Luckily, the roads are
pretty deserted, and my only concern is if we left any blood in our wake, “Get in, we might need to ditch this car
too.”
This is a messy getaway, the worst and in my fucking eyes, a failure.
“We need to move the meeting forward. We need to go back home.” Valerie
whispers as she helps Adriana in before | place Ada beside her.
I shut the door and look at her.
