A Stolen Kiss From THE CEO!

66 A Deadly Decision

Leon was still speaking with Sky, on their way to one of his warehouses, when he got a call from Rex. His expression darkened as bitter thoughts clouded his mind.

“Hello, Dad,” Leon tried to speak calmly which was in contrast to his piqued facial expression. “I hope everything is okay at Carlpole?”

“Everything is fine, son,” Rex spoke curtly. He wasn’t the type to beat around the bush. Neither was he the type to make lengthy calls.

From Rex’s tone, Leon could tell he was fuming in anger. So, he tried his best to be civil with his dad. If there was anyone that deserves his annoyance, it should be the Robinsons.

“What is happening over there at Amzone City? How is my daughter-in-law? I hope no one is messing with her. She is now a member of the family and should be treated that way. Also, what is this stupidity I am hearing from Albert? You better fix it.”

“Don’t trouble yourself, Dad.” Leon massaged his temple in annoyance. “As I said earlier, everything is fine over here. Ella is doing great, and you can be rest assured, no one will ever mess with her as long as I exist. Albert and his daughter are meddling. So, I intend to fix it. Also, I will appreciate it, if you do not interfere.”

“You have my blessings, son. Nevertheless, do not hesitate to call on me if you need my assistance. I’m still your father and Ella is like a daughter to me now.”

“Thanks, dad, I will.” Leon ended the call. He gritted his teeth in fury as he mentally pictured a way out of the current mess.

The SUV pulled over at one of Leon’s warehouses where the journalists from the earlier interview were being held captive.

.....

Leon stepped into the room scowling at all three journalists after listening to their recorded confession.

The journalists were already roughed up badly, after giving a full confession of their secret meeting with Chloe.

Unfortunately for all three of them, Leon was already in a foul mood. Without listening to their pleas, Leon took a claw-like serrated combat dagger from the table close by, and slit their throats.

After giving instructions to his men to get rid of the bodies, he left the room to make a call.

On the first ring, Albert picked up Leon’s call as though he had been expecting it.

“Albert,” Leon spoke in a calm but deep voice. “I’m aware you’re seeking revenge as a result of the event that occurred this night. I will advise you to reconsider your decision. The reason I’m extending you this courtesy is because of your longtime friendship with my dad.”

“Shut the hell up, boy!” Albert’s voice was very deep and fierce. “What nonsense are you talking about? You, a small boy of yesterday that I watched develop into a man? You dare threaten me? You dare insult my daughter and now you insult me?” He boomed over the speaker causing Leon to peel the phone away from my ears, for fear of his eardrums exploding.

“You and your good-for-nothing wife humiliated my daughter and now you give me advice? You kill four of my best men and you dare to give me advice? Your low-life tramp of a wife humiliated me on camera, calling me all sorts of names, and you dare give me advice? Albert’s tone was monstrous. “Now you listen and listen good. The only remedy to your impending doom is if you and your foolish wife go on air and apologize to the Robinsons.”

Leon chuckled devilishly before replying. “It’s on record, I warned you. You just made a deadly decision. For insulating my wife, you’ll pay dearly. Send your army. I’m currently in Bronx city and I’ll be waiting for them.”

“Are you...”

Leon ended the call without allowing Albert to finish his statement. “Sky, get the boys ready for a blood bath. It’s been a while since we last went on a rampage. This is gonna be fun.”

“Affirmative boss,” Sky’s smile was creepy.

Leon returned to the hotel after setting everything in motion. He instructed his men to lay an ambush for Albert’s minions in other to give them the element of surprise.

Unfortunately for Albert, Leon’s spies had already infiltrated his minions. Whatever plans Albert made, Leon was notified. Hence, he had the upper hand to strike a deadly blow.

A few hours later, after Leon had concluded his business with Sky and returned to the hotel, a bloody battle took place at the deserted boundary between Amzone and Bronx City. Sounds of machine guns, automatic and semi-automatic rifles, and bullets from snipers filled the air. While screams of pain, misery, and death engulfed the peaceful night.

Except for a few of Albert’s men that fled the battleground, others were brutally slaughtered. In the course of the gun exchange battle, three of Leon’s men were badly injured. While one of them, who received a gunshot to his neck died on the spot.

By morning, the grotesque scene of the crime had been cleared by Leon’s men. Except for a few bullet holes that went through some distant trees, one could swear that nothing transpired in the area.

———

Ella woke up, feeling well-rested. She quietly climbed down from the bed without disturbing Leon who was still sound asleep. After taking a quick warm shower, she came out of the bathroom only to find Leon still sleeping. She resisted the urge to wake him up as she pondered the reason behind his exhaustion. Leon had never slept beyond 6:00 AM, due to his morning routine of exercising.

She dressed up and place an order for breakfast. A slight tap at the door woke Leon. He quietly stood up and armed himself. He gently walked up to the door behind Ella, to check who it was.

“Good morning ma, good morning Sir.” The waitress greeted the couple politely as she wheeled in the food cart.

“Huh!” Ella spun around only to meet Leon’s affectionate look.

“I thought you were sleeping?” She walked into his open arms and kissed him tenderly on the lips.

“I’m sorry if I startled you, sweetheart.” Leon kissed her on the lips and signaled the waitress to leave. “I’ll quickly take a shower and then join you for breakfast. We have to leave the hotel early so that we can be in Islafub before 10:00 AM.” He released her from his hold and was about to go to the bathroom when Ella’s hand slightly brushed against his cold pistol.

“What’s that?” Her eyes widened in alarm. She rightly guessed that Leon was holding a weapon. “Is that what I think it is? Are we safe?”

...

Growing up, Ella had been privileged to go on various hunting trips with her dad. Her dad had a great flair for guns and different weapons. He had an array of weapons and Ella was always fascinated by them. Sometimes, Ella teased him that he should have enlisted in the military, which he always responded to with hysterical laughter.

Once, Ella had begged her dad to teach her how to use a gun. At first, he willingly gave in to her request and even taught her at two different occasions. However, when Maggie got wind of it, she accused her husband of treating Ella like a male child. Hence, Ella was prohibited from handling guns or any other dangerous weapons.

...

Leon smiled before responding to her question with a question. “What do you think it is? Also, you don’t have to worry, we are safe.”

Ella boldly felt the weapon behind Leon’s waistband. “It’s a gun!” Her eyes suddenly lit up. “You have a gun?” Ella whispered making Leon burst out with laughter.

“Oh, my beautiful and audacious wife.” Leon gently grabbed Ella’s scanning hands and place them on his shoulders. He leaned closer and started kissing her.

“Leon!” Ella broke away from the kiss and pouted animatedly. “Am I meddling by asking that question?” She inquired as Leon tightened his grip on her waist.

“No, my love, you are not meddling.” With his right hand, he gently pulled out his silver pistol from behind and showed it to a highly fascinated Ella.

Ella’s eyes sparkled with enthusiasm as she gently scrutinized the gun. “I can see the safety is on.” Oh, Leon, I dreamt of using one of these for as long as I can remember.”

“Really!” Leon was mesmerized by her reaction. At first, he thought that she would be frightened, but the fascination in her eyes was to die for. It was obvious that she had a strong flair for guns.

“I was going to talk to you about it this morning. You know what?” He gently took the gun from my hands and put it away. Then he lifted her into his arms and started kissing her again. “You just turned me on with your confession. So you have to take a shower with me.”

“Leon, I just had a bath a few minutes...”

Ella’s words were swallowed by Leon’s passionate and hungry kisses. Before she had time to react, Leon had already entered the shower room. He deftly turned on the warm shower with one hand while the other hand peeled Ella’s clothes off her body.

“Every time with you is always like my first.” Leon’s confessed amidst heated shower romance and sex.

After bathing together for almost an hour, an unsatisfied Leon carried Ella out of the shower. He gently placed her on the bed, where they locked themselves in other passionate lovemaking for another thirty minutes.

Satisfied and entangled in each other’s arms, Leon told Ella about his intentions of registering her in a firearm center and a martial art institute.

“Really!” Ella screamed in excitement.
