CHAPTER 38
ROD AZRAEL'S POINT OF VIEW
The sky was blue as the ocean. The sun was as bright as the sun. The surroundings were as green as ever. The birds were flying freely in the sky. Some birds were chipping on the tree.
The warm air blows through my skin. Every touch of the wind makes my skin chill. Since it was a little cold here outside.
A sudden ring of a phone call cut my thoughts. I immediately tried to reach for my phone inside of my pocket. And when I finally reached it, I grabbed it and see who was calling me.
It was my fourth-ranking superior.
My hands tends to shake as I was looking at my phone. There were a lot of questions that keep appearing on my mind right now. The questions always hunt me every night and gave me nightmares.
But the question that bothered me the most is: Did they already find out?
My heart was beating like crazy. It was beating faster and faster until I could hear it.
With a trembling hand, I answered the phone.
"Rod!" A masculine voice called me that was coming from the other line.
"Ye-s?" I utterly answered.
I tried to make myself as calm as possible. So that they would not notice something wrong, using my voice.
A lot of questions keep appearing inside of my head right now. Questions that bothered me every time.
"How does your mission going?" My superior asked me.
I took a deep breath and sighed...
I gathered all my strength so that I would stop being nervous.
"Our mission was going smooth and sooner or later. This mission would be finished, " I replied.
Then his words make me leave dumbfounded...
"If that was the case, sooner or later Blaike would the organization. That every each one of us, is scared to happen. We need to kill Amelia, so even if his memories came back. There is no one he can lean on," My superior stated.
Is he insane?
Would he want us to kill an innocent woman?
For the sake of the organization, they are willing to kill someone who was not involved in anything illegal?
"D-do you want me to kill Amelia?" I asked with hesitation in my voice.
My hands trembled that almost slipped the cellphone from my hands.
"Yes!" He shortly replied.
Those shocking words almost made me drop my butt on the ground. My whole body started shaking, which made me shiver. I was dumbfounded hearing those words.
"Who is the person you ordered to kill Amelia?" I asked with a stuttering voice.
My hand was shaking while holding my cellphone.
I still can't believe it right now... That they are still this kind of person.
They can harm an innocent woman just to make Blaike stay in the organization.
Why would they want Blaike to stay in this organization?
Are they scared of anything?
Why they don't want to lose Blaike?
What is so special about him?
Do they hide anything that only Blaike knows?
There were a lot of questions keep building inside of my head. Questions that keep adding up. That I could not even give some answers. The questions that would gonna keep bothering me, even in my sleep.
"We just plan to execute her. There is still no final decision on that. Just keep me, update. Since the doctor said, 3 months from now, he might recover from his temporary amnesia," he stated.
"I would update you! If he had remembered something for anything. I would immediately report it to you, " I replied.
"Good, then!" He replied and ended the call.
As he end the call, there were a lot of questions left unanswered me. Questions that would hunt me for some answers. That even I, could not answer those questions.
I put my cellphone on the table beside me, then took the glass of juice and drink it.
I am bothered now...
Important questions keep asking my mind.
Would I tell Blaike what are they planning to do to Amelia?
Would I tell Blaike that the organization planned his accident so that he could have amnesia?
Would I tell my superiors that Blaike had already recovered his memories?
"What should I do first?" I asked myself as I was now confused about what should I do next.
THIRD PERSON'S POINT OF VIEW
The room was cold and a little bit dark, because it has no windows in it. Only the chandelier in the middle of the meeting table is the only light that gives light to the whole room. The room was full of serious expressions.
Seven masculine men and three sexy gorgeous women are having a private meeting. All of them are in their mid 40's. They are having a serious talk, about a serious issue.
The room was cold which comes from the aircon of the room. Because there is no window in the room. The room was full of darkness, that could make someone shiver. But as those ten people stayed in the room, they didn't mind the cold room. The cold air just passes by their bare skin.
"Do we need to kill her?" The fourth-ranking superior asked.
His tone of voice was a little bit concerned on his voice.
Because everyone knows that the person they wanted to kill is not just an easy target.
"Amelia?" The eight ranking superior asked.
"Yes!" One of them replied.
"We all know that we can't do that. Except that she isn't involved in any crimes. She was a very important person in our organization. And our higher leaders would not agree to this, " one of the female superiors objected.
Because she knows that Amelia was not someone they could touch. If they killed her, blood would be scattered. They would be bathed by their blood. They could be possibly withdrawn from their position and banned to be part of the underground society. A lot of changes might happen. Their life would be in danger. Their families' life would be also in danger. And their bloodline could be cut out.
"We all know that no one could touch her. A lot of blood would be scattered, bodies would be laying on the ground, and our position would be in danger, " the first ranking superior stated.
"Then what should we need to do right now? We needed Blaike in our organization. And we must do everything to make him stay, " the second-ranking superior objected.
They looked at each other before speaking up.
Silent was the only answer they could give to each other. Only glares could see in the cold dark room. The cold air passes by their bare skin. The tension in their surrounding was getting tenser and tenser.
"We should think of this carefully and do not touch her. If Blaike wanted to leave, let him be. He had done enough for this organization, he had his own life to live on. We should not sacrifice a thousand lives for just one ambition. We can train someone else and be better than him, " the first ranking superior said as he cut off the silence. "This meeting is over, " he continued in a serious tone.
He walked out of the meeting room, while the others stayed silent as he walked out of the room.
The second-ranking superior gathered his strength and talked. "We should follow what he had said, "
He cut off the silence that was arising in the four corners of the room.
They all took a deep breath and sighed. Some of them were thinking deeply, about what was the next step they were going to do. Killing Amelia was something serious that could badly affect on there life and position. The things they were hard for would be gone in a split second.
Amelia is not the person they wanted to mess with. She was something more than they all expected. Her family background was more than they expected to know. Thinking of killing her could make your whole spine shiver, on that kind of idea.
"I agree!"
"I agreed too!"
"We need to think carefully before we do such an inhuman decision, "
"You have the point of not killing her, "
That are just some of the responses of the superiors. Some just nodded at what the second superior had said. They gaze at each other and nodded, like telling they are agreeing with that kind of idea.
"Then this meeting is over!" The second superior announced.
He then left, followed by the other superiors. But the eight superiors stayed in the meeting hall. She didn't mind the cold atmosphere surrounding the whole room. Even the cold air was passing by her bare skin. It didn't make her whole body shiver.
She let her co-superior leave first before she called someone on the phone.
"What just happened didn't I tell you to get rid of her?" She angrily asked.
"But we can't just kill her. Your life and position would be the risk, " the man on the phone replied.
The woman just becomes angrier. She clenches her arm to express her anger.
"We are both superior to this organization but we can not take advantage of anything, "
