My Emotionless Goddess

Landing at the helipad of the Johnston group, Ronald went straight to his office and found out that his friends were already there. When Justin saw the dishevelled Ronald, his heart ached for him. Of all people, Justin knew the story between Ava and Ronald the most. He knew how Ronald had to stay away from the woman he loved to protect her. They got separated or rather let’s say, he Made himself scarce in his life because he didn’t want her to fall victim to his enemy’s revenge but at the end of the day, it still happened. He also knew what Ava meant to Ronald. She was what held him together. She was his sanity, her presence alone taming the beast in him. Justin didn’t want to think what would happen if something bad happened to Ava. He was sure that Ronald would bring hell on earth. That’s the last thing the State needed after his woman, Miranda did everything to restore peace in the State after suppressing the rebellion.

Without much to say, nothing was needed to be said, Justin pulled Ronald to a brotherly hug. He wanted him to know that he can always count on them for anything. It was also a method of telling him that everything would be alright.

” I can’t lose her.” Those were the words that came out of Ronald’s mouth when they pulled away. They were full of pain.

” You are not going to lose her brother. We will save her Even if that’s the last thing we do.” Justin assured him.

” You can count on us to save your Life.” Kiel added. Yes, they will do anything to rescue Ronald’s life. She was his Life and her absence would turn Ronald to a robot, w lifeless structure.

” Location found, no need to be emotional. Ava has a darkness phobia. Am worried about her psychological health at this point.” Miranda, whose fingers were playing on her laptop at a terrifying speed, announced.

” The warehouse near the port, the same area where we fought the rebels. The total number of men is twenty or so. I think they are planning on ambushing you, he never wanted any negotiations.” Miranda reported.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

” How’s the terrain?” Ronald asked the most important question. That was the most crucial thing in a battle. Since that man chose that place for exchange as he suggested, then it must have its advantages. Either hard to attack or easy to defend.

” A high raised terrain. The warehouse is elevated making it easy for those inside to locate approaching people from far. On the East, there’s a Forest, not More than ten acres, nothing else seems special.” Miranda reported.

” In that case, this is a setup.” Justin concluded.

” Regardless, I have to save her. I can’t let anything happen to her.” Ronald stated with certainty.

” I already sent my drones inside for a patrol, let’s wait and see how the coast looks, then we can decide the best approach to attack.” Miranda proposed. The scenes on the screen changed and everything seemed dim.

Meanwhile

Meanwhile, in the abandoned warehouse.

Ava couldn’t tell how much time passed. She was slowly drifting away from her consciousness. The room was all dark and the sounds of men laughing loudly while talking dirty invaded and plunged her brain like a curse. Tears streamed down her already pale face. She was scared. She was scared that today might be the last day for her. She still had a lot of things to do.

She couldn’t accept death. She was yet to Marry Ronald in church. They were yet to become intimate. If she died now, she would go to the afterlife with so many regrets.

The door was suddenly pushed open and a masked Man dragged her away. He didn’t bother to be gentle and in the process he squeezed Ava’s injured elbow making her hissed in pain.

She was pushed to the group roughly as if she was a sack of potatoes. The men here were the epitome of uncivilization.

” Don’t be so harsh on the beauty. We still need her beautiful face.” A voice invaded Ava’s ears and she lifted her eyes to look at the owner and Even if twelve years had already passed, that face still brought nightmares to her whenever she dreamt about that incidence. But how could this be possible? He was dead? She had watched his body turn limp with her own two eyes so how on earth is he alive or why is he perhaps a ghost?

” Surprised to see me? I like that face you guys give whenever you see me. I am just sad that your lover boy wouldn’t let me see that. After killing so many people, he can’t remember some insignificant details.” The man spoke again. His voice was soft and sweet, like a siren. He was lean, with a beautifully Crafted angular face making Ava doubt if the two were still the same person from that man twelve years back.

” Oh don’t be surprised. Am not him. Just his lookalike ” the Man answered Ava’s unasked question while laughing softly. Looking at the Man, you could mistake him for an Angel. He resembled one. You would never in your wildest dreams think that he was the orchestrator of the whole kidnapping matter.

” Why are you doing this?” Ava gathered a little energy to ask the question. She didn’t want to die without knowing why she died. Even her corpse would riot in her grave.

” Wrong question darling.. you should ask what I want to do to you.” The Man answered with an evil smirk plastered on his pretty face making him look harmless.

” U don’t give reasons for my actions, I find it boring ” he added walking towards Ava leisurely. When he squinted his small Amber orbs, he resembled a hunter closing in to its prey, readying himself to pounce on it.

” Who are you?” Ava asked yet again, making the man burst laughing hysterically like a mad man. Oh well, Ava was sure he was a mad man despite his innocent looks. Then the devil stopped laughing and matched her. Using his hand, he lifted Ava’s Chin and the once playful look on his face disappeared, only to be replaced by a ferocious look resembling a wounded beast.

” Who am I? I am a vengeful ghost. I am your nemesis.” He replied coldly before pushing her away, causing Ava to land in the ground with a thud. That was the first scene playing on Miranda’s laptop as the four people in the room watched.

” Get ready, we are leaving.” Ronald announced.

” Good luck, I have arranged my snipers to help you. Bring her back, I’ll update you on the development.” Miranda said. She also understood that there wasn’t more time to waste. If they did, the possibility of finding a corpse was high. After observing for a while, Miranda could tell that Man was a psychopath who wouldn’t bat an eyelid to kill a lady in cold blood. She silently said a prayer for her friend praying for her safety.

Thirty minutes later, the team separated to three. Justin would lead the snipers team, he was good at shooting himself and could help in taking down their opponents from afar.
