25

Dylan lay on the floor growling. His gun was far from and closer to Justin.
“Take Jessica and leave.”
“Now,” I ordered with a fierce tone. That was the only chance we had. Now that I knew Dylan was dangerous and my cover was blown, things were complicated.
“I can’t leave you all here Justin. Isabelle. ” Jessica said with tears in her throat.
” You have to go ”
“James, please take her with you,” Justin said immediately. We had limited time. Dylan was taking longer than expected to get up and it was all in our favor.
“I can’t leave Isabelle.”
” Isabelle, I’m not going to leave you,” James said. The tension was building up. Deciding who was going to stay and who was going to leave created tension.
“Fucking leave James.”
” We don’t have time.”
“Go.”
I lashed out angrily. Every second spent on the yacht was dangerous. I was scared for my life, I was scared for theirs. Justin, James, and Jessica.
“I will get Isabelle home.”
“Take Jessica to a safe place,” Justin assured James
James grabbed Jessica’s hands and pulled her forcefully out of the yacht. They both left reluctantly.
It was up to Justin and I to save ourselves. Of course, we could have left Dylan on the yacht and fled the scene alongside James and Jessica but if we did, Dylan was sure to Come after us. He was ready to Eliminate us and he would go to any extent to do that even if it meant implicating himself. His ego and greed ruled over his mind.
The gun was at Justin’s feet. James had barely left the yacht when Dylan grabbed my legs with his left hand. The pain in his stomach was so dominant that he was unable to pull himself up at once.
” You bastard, how dare you?” He said Witt gritted his teeth. Trying to pull himself up with my legs. He pulled himself up, grabbed my ponytail, and started to pull it.
“You think you are brave huh?”
“You are so stupid ”
“Whoever sent you is a fool who knows nothing about me.”
“You are a woman and you are meant for pleasure and nothing more. ”
Dylan!! Justin was burning up with anger. Hearing him talk about me that way irritated him. Dylan had such a disgusting mentality about women. How on earth did Jessica end up with such a man?
He ran up to us, his fist was curled up so tight. He dashed out a punch to Dylan’s face. Dylan released my hair and I fell to the side.
Justin grabbed his collar and pushed him to the wall of Yatch. They were so close to each other. So close that Dylan could see his reflection in Justin’s vengeful eyes.
You son of a bitch. Justin started to punch him in every part of his body he could lay his hands on. His stomach, his ribs, his cheeks, and his shoulders. Justin brutally beat up Dylan. I was so sure that he had a few damaged ribs.
Soon, Dylan started to bleed from his nose. Justin didn’t stop. He was blinded by his anger. A few more punches and Dylan was going to pass out. I wanted to kill him but I didn’t want him to die at the hands of Justin. If anyone was going to be charged with murder if even we were caught, then I wanted it to be me.
“This is for my sister ” Justin hit him again.
“This is for my Isabelle ”
” What gave you the audacity to lay your hands on her? ”
“Who gave you the right to talk about her like that? He dashed him another punch in his guts.
Dylan could barely stand but Justin made sure he did.
I stood up. My scalp was hurting and I already sprained my ankle due to my pressure fall.
I managed to stand up.
Justin was about to dish out another punch when I held his arm.
“This is my fight ”
“Let go of him ”
Justin was breathing heavily.
“Listen to your lover,” Dylan said and started to laugh maniacally. He was bleeding, he was in pain yet he found pleasure amidst all the chaos.
Justin Gave him another punch to shut him up.
“I said stop it .”
“You stay out of this.”
“This is my fight. I chose this .”
I pulled Just away from him, and Dylan fell to the ground. He was weak to his bones.
“Our fight. ”
“You expected me to leave all this to you?”
“You have a lot of explanations to do Isabelle ”
We were both distracted by our arguments that we forgot we were in the middle of a tough situation.
“You don’t get it, Justin.”
“If anything happens to you, I’d never forgive myself.”
I …. I lo….
Justin fell to the ground unconscious.
Dylan.
How and when Dylan stood up and managed to get his hands on an extinguisher without us knowing was all a mystery to Me.
Just when I was about to tell Justin I loved him after so many years of convincing myself I didn’t, this had to happen.
Dylan stood behind Justin’s unconscious body with a wicked smirk on his face. His lips were dripping blood and his blue T-shirt was stained with blood. His eyes were swollen and his handsome face was damaged. Justin did Justice to him.
“Your hero is gone ”
“Puff.”
“Just like that. ”
“Why don’t you come here and have a great time with Me? ”
“Now that I think of it, we can just have sex and I might let you go. ”
“Remember you interrupted my sexual pleasure?”
“Jessica was gullible but she knew how to fuck me the way I like it. ”
You are sisters-in-law aren’t you
“So I guess you are better than her .” He chuckled maniacally.
Seeing Justin lying unconscious in front of me took all my courage away. No, nothing should happen to him.
I wouldn’t be able to forgive myself.
C’mon, I’d satisfy you.
I was weaponless and I had no idea where my gun was. Dylan was ruthless and stronger than me in every way. His words disgusted me. His sexual stare irked me. I took a few steps back but I was caught.
Dylan caught me and again pinned me to. the wall. His drool of blood dropped on My jacket. He started t rub his hands playfully all over my face. He leaned on me so close that his hard Manhood was pressing on my abdomen.
“Feel it ”
“You can have it the hard war or the easy way. ”
“You will pay for this. ”
“Oh really? ”
“Who is going to save you now?”
“Your husband?”
‘Who?”
He raised my jaw and was about to place his bloody bruised lips on mine. I moved my head. the side. He seized my two hands and held them both in his wide palm about my head.
“Justin ”
“Justin, stand up, ” I cried out.
“You better behave yourself if you want to get out alive. ”
“Trust me, after this, you will come back crawling for my manhood again just like that cheap slot Jessica. ”
He seized my jaw, tightly that my lips pouted out. He was about to kiss me when I heard a gunshot.
His blood splashed on my face.
Immediately, his tightened grip on my jaw and hands was released.
Dylan staggered a few steps back, slowly looked down at his stomach where the pain was, and saw he had been shot.
Justin regained consciousness. He was standing behind him with the last of his strength. I gasped for breath and tears welled up in My eyes.
Justin came up to me and I quickly embraced him. He kissed my hair and my forehead.
“Are you okay?” I asked him.
“Are you okay?” He asked Me back. We were so worried About each other’s well-being.
Dylan fell to the ground with his hands on his wounded stomach. He was losing a lot of blood and we just stared at him.
I had killed so many people in the past but this one gave me a bad vibe. I watched him on the floor bleeding profusely and on the verge of drawing his last breath. My feet and palms turned cold. The life I chose, what I did, everything filled my heart with remorse.
I hugged Justin again.
“It’s over ”
“It’s over ” He kept whispering to me.
Just when we thought it was over, Dylan burst into laughter on the floor while struggling to keep a steady breath.
“Love Birds”
“It saddens me to see that you both would have to die this way .”
“Ah…. Yes, you won against me”
“But how will you both win against death?”
“What are you talking about? ” I left Justin’s arm and asked out of curiosity.
“Win against death? “What rubbish was Dylan talking about?
“Did Jessica think I was in love with her?”
“She was nothing but a pun and a sex toy to me. ”
“A sex toy that knew too much about me. ”
“I planned all of this, the yacht cruise for a reason ” Dylan struggled for breath On the floor. He was losing way too much blood and the more he spoke, the weaker he got.
“I told her I wanted to go on a trip with her to show her how much I loved her .” He chuckled.
“I’m not so generous, I’m not Romantic either. ”
“All this was an orchestrated plan for her death. ”
“Just in case you were wondering, there is a bomb on this yacht .”
“And in (he took a look at his wristwatch) 7 minutes, all these would be blown up. ”
“Too bad Jessica, the main reason for all this isn’t here .”
“Are you crazy?” I yelled out.
Justin rushed over to him, grabbed his collar, and pulled him up.
“You better be kidding ”
“I wish I was ”
“There is no point in hitting me now, I’m already dead.”
“In a few minutes, you both, alongside everyone around here, would be gone .”
“Aren’t I smart?”
“I was going to escape. ”
“I really wish I could hear Isabelle scream while she roasts to death but too bad I’d be burning in hell by then.”
