Dmitriy smiled.“He liked to always be able to keep an eye on absolutely everything.That includes in his own home.”
Jack sighed.“Man, he looks ...ill.”
Dmitriy didn’t like this.
“Holy shit.”
He tensed up, gun poised in his hand, ready to take out any enemy.“What is it, Jack?You can’t just say shit like that down the phone, and think I can sit back and take it.”
“One of the guards are heading back.Shit, fuck.Shit.Wait, what the fuck.”
Dmitriy started to move faster.There was not enough time in the world to train Anastasia to do combat.He felt that fear traveling down his spine, and he fucking hated this, so he ran as fast and as hard as he could to get closer to her.
“That’s clever.Oh, I like this.This is so good.”
He didn’t like that he didn’t know what the fuck was going on.Anything could be happening right now.
“Damn it, Jack.What the fuck is going on?”
“I think Anastasia is going to attempt to attack the guard.I don’t think I like this.”
There was silence and Dmitriy wondered why the fuck Gnesin had a lot of ground to cover.This was driving him crazy.He needed to be there to protect Anastasia.
“Jack, what’s going on?”
“Two guards are heading back.This is not good, Dmitriy.Anastasia is hiding in the dark corner, and Gnesin has gone to sit on the bed.”
There was more silence.
“Only one guard is making his way down, but ...shit, he’s left the door open.Anything they attempt is going to be dangerous.”
Dmitriy started to run.They were running out of time, as he saw one of the guards move back into position, and he didn’t hesitate.Firing his gun, the shot got the neck of the solider, and he fell to the ground.
Dmitriy moved in closer, as another guard came.He shot again, catching the guy in the head.He didn’t have a silencer and he knew it was only a matter of time before the guards figured out they were being fired upon.
One shot after another, he got clear of the house, just as soldiers were mounting up, and he was shoved back.His gun was taken from him, but Dmitriy didn’t need a gun.Within his grip, he had two knives, and he slashed toward his opponents.
Jack was yelling in his ear, but he couldn’t hear.His only focus was to get to the basement, and he was so fucking close to it.Chaos ran around him as Jack continued to yell, but he wasn’t listening anymore.
As he made his way to the basement, he saw that Anastasia was fighting one of the men.Another was on the ground, and Nikolai was using the key to unlock the cage.
Dmitriy went to the guard currently with his hands wrapped around her neck, and he thrust the blade of his knife, taking the man by surprise.Anastasia gasped, falling against him.
“I’ve got you,” he said.
She just held onto him tightly, and he was not going to let her go.
He kissed the top of her head.“I’ve got you.”
“As touching as all this is, we’re running out of time.”Nikolai stepped over the solider on the floor and grabbed the guns.
Dmitriy did the same and handed it straight to Anastasia.“The safety is off.You got this?”
“Yeah, I got it.”
“Good.I don’t know what is going to happen up there.”
“It’s simple,” Jack said, suddenly making sense.“I got the fucking calvary here.”
