Page 77 of Thalia De Luca

I see someone walking towards us with a large knife, so I throw my knife towards his face making him fall to the floor. I see Alexander raise his gun near my head and then he shoots at whoever is behind me.

"Can we talk while just shooting people? Because focusing on just you and trying not to get killed will be hard," Alexander asks while looking around us.

I see someone running towards us two again. "Fine," I say before walking towards the guy and kicking him to the floor.

Thank fucking god I am wearing heels.

I stand above the guy and then stab my heel into his eye socket making him scream in terror.

I take my heel out of his eye socket and then I feel strong arms grab my waist. I look and see Alexander holding me behind him as he shoots someone in front of him. "What happened?"

"The Russians are alive, or Vladimir has a brother but I have no clue who."

"Where's your dad?" Alexander asks as he shoots guys who are coming towards us.

I look in front of me and see my father now beating the crap out of someone. A guy runs towards me and before he can get in front of me, I take my heel off and stab the guy in the chest with it, making him wince.

"It's nothing. Be thankful I wore these shoes instead of my other heels," I say to the guy before punching him in the face and taking my heel out of his chest and stabbing him in the neck. "My dad is beating the shit out of a guy right now," I tell Alexander.

"Fuck," Alexander says while he continues to shoot people.

"What do we do? There are way too many people."

There are a lot of people helping us right now but still not enough.

"I need you to go look for a computer and see what you can find on the Ivanovs or if there is another heir," Alexander says.

"Okay. Please be careful," I say before walking away from him. I feel someone grab my wrist and I turn around and see a guy. His fist comes close to my face before I dodge it and deck him in the face and kick him in the balls. He falls to the floor while holding his balls. I grab his hair to make him look at me. "Who is the second heir? Who do you work for?" The guy is just wincing while shaking his head from side to side. I grip his hair tighter. "Tell me or else I will stab your eye out and leave you to bleed out wishing that I killed you," I threaten.

"Cam Ivanov."

"Cam Ivanov? What does he look like?" The guy continues shaking his head. I roll my eyes and take my heel from my other foot and stab him in the eye and I use my other heel to stab him in his hand that is holding his balls. "I told you I would do that if you didn't answer my question. Have fun with that. You will be dead by the time this is over."

"Thalia!"

I was about to walk away but I hear my name get called. I get pushed to the floor and I hear a gunshot go off. I look up and I see Alexander on the floor holding his chest.

I get up and run towards Alexander.

I sit next to him and hold his head on my lap. "Stay with me, Xander, please," I say while trying to contain the tears in my eyes. "We're going to help you. We are going to get you help, don't worry," I say reassuringly while moving the hair out of his face.

"Thalia," Alexander rasps out.

"I'm here, don't worry. I'm right here. I'm not leaving you," I say as a tear trails down my cheek.

"Cameron," Alexander rasps out and then he pushes his gun towards me.

I furrow my eyebrows at him before I look up and see what he means.

"Hello, baby." I see Cameron with a smirk on his face while walking closer to me and Alexander.

"No." I shake my head from side to side. "Don't tell me you-"

"The heir to the throne," Cameron chuckles. "You could have had a king but instead you chose a weak assassin."

I look down at Alexander and see him closing his eyes, but I lightly slap his face. "Keep your eyes open please, just keep them open for me."

"Time to get over him, Thalia," Cameron raises his gun to Alexander.
