His Mission (HIS SERIES Book 1) by SAKINA HUSSAIN (each kindness read aloud TXT) 📗

I can't risk shooting Tobias or Emily.

Another kick lands on my head causing me to drop the gun instantly, hearing it crash to the ground. A sickening crunch sound echoes in my ears before my world completely blacks out.

Chapter Sixty Six - Confrontation.

Tobias' POV -

My heart drops hearing Amil is aware of our plan. Clearly one of the boys told him, going against Jake's and my trust. I hiss as the guy I'm fighting punches me backwards onto the glass table, causing it to shatter and pierce through the skin on my arms. I growl loudly, looking down at my arm that's now pouring with blood.

"You really shouldn't have done that."

My words are quiet, dripping with danger. My eyes travel to an unconscious Jake on the floor and the guy he's fighting, who's equally as knocked out. His head is spinning and he holds out his hand to grip onto something to steady himself.

"Jake!" I yell, attempting to wake him up. I kick the guy who's lunging for me once again and cause him to stumble as I buy myself more time. My eyes scan the room frantically, searching for Emily.

She's disappeared, along with Amil.

"Emily!?" I shout loudly, the desperation in me rising. I clench my teeth and lunge for the guy, drop kicking him to the floor. I completely lose my temper, my breathing becoming heavy and erratic. I kick him over and over again, stomping on his face until his cries die down. Blood trickles from his mouth and I finally pull back, taking a second to catch my breath.

I run over to Jake and study the cut on his head before clenching my jaw tightly and grabbing the gun he dropped.

Trust Jake to be the only one with any common sense and bring a weapon with him.

I run out of the room, taking one last look at Jake before realising I have to get to Emily first. Jake won't ever forgive me if Amil laid his filthy hands on her. I know Amil too well, he's causing Jake pain by hurting someone he truly cares for.

And that someone is Emily.

Now I realised how stupid it was of us not to see what Amil was planning to do. He know's Jake worships the ground Emily walks on, he know's he would risk his life for her. I pound up the stairs, desperately listening out for any sound to guide me of their whereabouts.

"Emily!" I yell, my voice bouncing off the walls. I yell out in frustration as silence surrounds me and I charge down the hallway, kicking each door down before checking the next one. The only sounds I can hear is my heavy breathing and the smashing of doors.

I finally reach Jake's room and freeze outside, leaning closer to listen in. I can hear muffled voices on the other side and I silently pray that she's still alive and unharmed. I stand back and charge at the door, my leg raised. It takes two kicks before it finally flies off its hinges, landing on the floor with a loud bang.

I immediately raise Jake's gun, holding it securely in my hands. I step inside the room and my eyes land on her in the corner. She's curled up on the floor, eyes wide with fear. Blood trickles from her skull and I feel my stomach tighten in knots from the sight of her.

My eyes travel further up, landing on Amil's which hold an evil glint in them. He's stood behind her, gripping tightly onto her hair with one hand.

His other hand holds a knife to her throat.

The blade glistens, mocking me. I know that if I make one wrong move, he would skim the knife across her throat without a second thought, letting the blood drain from her neck until her heart finally stopped. . . Like an animal.

"Put the gun down Tobias." Amil says firmly, pressing the blade of the knife further against her skin. She whimpers loudly, squeezing her eyes shut tightly. The sound of her pained cries causes my heart to clench with pain.

So I do as he asks, placing the gun directly onto the floor next to my feet. I kick it to the side, away from reaching distance and hold my hands up in the air as surrender. I slowly get onto my knees, holding my hands above my head.

"You've got me, now let her go."

My heart clenches tightly as she stares straight at me, her eyes widening further with fear. She tries to shake her head at me in protest. She doesn't want me giving myself up to Amil.

"Jake needs you Emily, don't move." I say sadly and she cries out once again, the sound causing my heart to ache further. Amil's laughter fills the room as he glances between Emily and I, his eyes flickering. He suddenly begins choking as he laughs hysterically, his eyes shimmering with humour.

"Holy fucking shit! You love her too!" He yells at me mockingly and I glare at him, my teeth clenched with anger.

"No, I don't."

I shake my head, my eyes never leaving his. Telling Amil I have any sort of feelings for her would give him the final reason to take Emily and Jake may never get her back.

"Take me Amil." I tell him firmly, my voice emotionless and flat.

"I've already had my fun with you, remember?" Amil sneers at me, his lip curling up in disgust. I hang my head low, my hair falling over my eyes as I knew exactly what he's talking about. The horrid scar I've been left with inches away from my heart will always remind me of Amil.

"I remember . . . You're pure evil, I can't even look at you anymore without feeling disgusted." I spit out towards him and the
