Staring at the name of the shop I could feel a smirk on my lips as I thought of all the securities I was going to breach.
The accounts I was going to hack into and the people I was going to bribe into giving me information.
You know the saying that goes like 'money is power' well in a world like this it was and as long as you swam in it then the power was yours.
"Shall we?" Amala said opening the door and the smile on my lips widened into a grin.
Whoever said that I was sick when it came to some things did not lie.
I was indeed sick to put a bullet into whoever thought could mess with me and get away with it.
Nayra
The hard thing that followed everytime I went out of this house was coming back.
The fact that my heart got broken three days ago and having to live with the person who caused it made my muscles ache from a pain I did not know existed until a few days ago.
"Ajax?" I asked looking at the person who just entered the restaurant and I couldnt help it but bulge my eyes out.
What the hell.
Looking at Amala who had a knowing smirk I groaned palming my face.
Why the hell would she do this to me.
"Hello ladies" the soothing voice said making me look at him straight in the face.
Holy shit he looked better than when I last saw him.
He rose a brow waiting for me to hug him and fuck I did not even hesitate to do so.
Pushing the chair behind i brought my arms out and threw myself into his embrace inhaling his scent and I shut my eyes feeling like I was back in college.
We stayed in that position a little bit longer than necessary and I smiled when Amala cleared her throat indicating that she was still around too.
I left his embrace with a chuckle as he went to Malia for a hug then pulled a chair sitting next to me.
Why.
Why the hell would he do that. I mentally groaned and I groaned even louder when he placed his hand at the back of my seat.
You might wonder who Ajax is. Well Ajax was my college fling. Yes college fling nothing more nothing less and as much as I wanted to keep him around after I was done studying we werent friends so we had to part ways.
That was probably two years ago and now I sat next to the guy who had my whole body for the four years that I spent in college.
Fuck.
You would think that I would have moved on from that but with the recent events that just happened and how my heart felt I was definetly not going to crave a man's attention for a very long time.
I was just exhausted.
But that did not mean that sitting next to him did not bring memories. Do not get me wrong. We agreed that there would be no feelings between us and that was how it went.
"So what is the special occasion you called me for?" The man asked making me look at him after I was lost in my thoughts.
Nodding my head in understanding I mentioned for Amala to start and she opened her laptop going on explaining to him what we were up to.
"Your brother really failed to do this?" He asked puzzled as he looked at the screen that showed us bank accounts.
Multiple of them.
Damn the bitch was loaded.
"Yes" I said looking at him and he furrowed his eyebrows.
"If we get past this she will get notified and we might be traced. These are hightly protected" he said looking at the screen and I nodded.
I had no intentions to do that. Just wanted to prove a point.
"But we can monitor them right?" I asked looking at him and he nodded.
"Yes we can and we will know which one receives money and which one she withdraws from and we will know whenever a transaction is made." He said looking at me and I nodded. I was really happy that we were far from any one who could hear our illegal activities that were going on.
"But if they suspect anything and change the password we will be logged out completely" I said looking at him scrutinizing him indirectly telling him that the work we did was half close to zero.
He confirmed it with a yes and I sighed.
"So what? We will be careful and make sure we dont get detected but most of all we dont tamper with any of her accounts" Amala said and we both nodded.
Looking at Ajax I sighed.
"Did Amala tell you we were back at it?" I asked him and he nodded not uttering a word in short meaning that he wasnt thrilled that we were but he was happy to help.
"As long as I dont get traced back" he said seriously looking at me making me roll my eyes.
"The last time they kept a knife in your shoulder was your fault Ajax do not bring it back" I said looking at him.
Did I forget to mention our past again.
He did not say anything in return instead he gritted his teeth making his jawline flex.
"Nayra" Amala said in a warning voice and I glared at her which she returned.
"Just because you are angry at the world it does not give you a pass to be a bitch to everyone" she hissed out making my palm form into a fist as the words she said stung me.
