Beg Harder by Artemis Dianne (new reading .TXT) 📗

As I explained the issue to Dave, I brushed away the tears that seemed to never end. Astor stayed silent the whole time, allowing me to unload and sob to my husband.

 

"I'm sorry to cut you but we're in danger, there are assassins waiting for an order to kill us. They've found you." Astor directly says to me, lifting his hands waving it like a nut. We both looked at Astor like he is mental.

"Astor, are you high?" Dave asked him directly, with a suspicious look on his face.

 

"This is a new technology called air swiping, and because I'm wearing contact lenses, only I can see the hologram system," Astor explains.

 

As I take a closer look at Astor, I see illuminated contact lenses in his eyes. I completely saw how fast technology evolves in that world and now it's back in front of me and ready to suck me right back in.

"We have 10 minutes to disrupt their surveillance technology and get out of here safely before they can detect that I have hacked into the system. I wish I could show you the files they have on you. They've been on your tail for almost a week now. I'm not sure what they're waiting for, but we need to get to a safe place as soon as possible. " As he continues to wave his hands like a composer in a theater, Astor says.

 

"Get our daughter. I'll pack everything we need." Dave ordered me, and as soon as those words left his mouth, I went straight up to my daughter.

I was jolted back to reality as I heard the door open, the creaking sound swiftly snapping me out of my breakdown. When I open my eyes, I see Astor approaching me. "You need to take care of your health, Carly." Astor's eyes were filled with worry, he claimed. 

 

"Have you discovered anything yet?" I say this while ignoring his counsel. 

 

"I will soon, I'm very close. We're just one more satellite away in getting  the location where Baby is exactly." Astor says, he takes a towel and hands it to me.

"Astor please tell me how my Aunt Madonna died exactly, I wanna know now," I ask, finally having the courage to hear it after being in this secured place for almost five days, I look at him waiting for an answer as I aggressively slam the boxing gloves on the floor, Indicating for him to talk. 

He lets out a long sigh and shuts his eyes for a few seconds, attempting to keep his emotions at bay. 

"On my way back to the cabin, I discovered Madonna, just a few meters outside the cabin lying on the ground, and when she noticed me approaching her, she signaled me to halt in my tracks. I was drowsy from the medications baby injected me, and I didn't know there were guys around, who left her wounded on the ground and simply waited. It didn't take long for whoever they were expecting to arrive as I was still thinking of a plan to rescue her. When I got closer to see who it was, I saw Charles. He told his men to take her, but your Aunt pulled the pin in the grenade she was hiding in her pocket the whole time before Charles could get away." Astor says. 

"Why didn't you save her." I started sobbing and now pounding Astor on the chest as hard as I could. He didn't fight back but let me keep on punching him, Once I was done, we were both kneeling on the floor sobbing. 

"Carly, I should have brought her with us, but I made her a promise to get Baby to safety first. I knew she was dead bent on dying since her illness was growing worse by the day, and murdering the jerk who stole Baby was the last thing she wanted to do." Astor says, his voice was shaky from the tears.

"Why Is Charles alive when Aunt Madonna blew the bomb near him?" I broke the silence.

"There's a new technology called Nanogex it can heal your body in an instant. Charles burned me when he caught me but I woke up with brand new skin, even my old scars are gone. at that time I didn't know what they put on me but Baby has experienced it and she was trying to convince your Aunt to get the treatment but the sample she brought was a fake, I knew right there and then there is no way your Aunt will back out from the plan." Astor replies as he lift us both off the floor.

I'm shock to my core on how big of a person were dealing with, but nothing scares me more than losing my only sister.  

Astor hands me a small case containing contact lenses. "I was finally able to replicate those smart contact lenses this is yours, I already gave Dave his," Astor exclaimed 

I put them on with only one thing in mind.

Saving Baby.
