Chapter Ten - A Rude Awakening.
I startled awake. I was lying on a couch in the living room at the Villa. I groaned as I sat up.
"Morning." Said Moran gruffly. I jumped. I hadn't noticed Sebastian there. He was sitting in the chair next to me drinking his coffee. I glared at him.
"So what now?" I spat.
"Sorry?" He asked dully.
"You work for Richard. What are your orders?" I asked
"You really think I would tell you?" He sighed.
"Er, Good point." I replied.
"I can tell you this I am here to protect you."
"Right bu-" at that moment Rachel walked into the room.
"What are you guys talking abo-" I watched in shock as Sebastian stood and kissed Rachel on the lips. It was a long passionate kiss. Rachel was beet red by the end of it. I think I probably was too. She left the room very understandably flustered.
"How dare you manipulate her like that!" I spewed.
"Who said I didn't mean it?" he said nonchalantly as he left the room. I went upstairs as quickly and quietly as I could. I needed help from somebody way smarter than me. From Rosie. I closed the door behind me and looked for her. She was still asleep. Something told me it was a bad idea to wake a sleeping assassin, but really what choice did I have?
"Rosie?" I said gently shaking her. She sat up and pulled a gun out from under her pillow, pointing it at my head. I put my hands up.
"Don't shoot it's me!" I whispered.
"Keyland?" She said sleepily. "What the Hell? Do you have a bloody death wish?"
"I know I'm so sorry. I need your help." I said urgently.
"What with?" She said suddenly awake.
And I told her everything. About Richard, about him poisoning Sherlock, and about Sebastian and Rachel, and everything I could think of.
"Wow girly, you got yourself into a huge mess. Wait, what was the restaurant reservation under the name of?"
"It sounded Latin, and it started with a m or something." I said stupidly.
"Moriarty?" She asked, eyes wide.
"Yes." I replied, Rosie blanched.
"Keyland If you care for Sherlock at all. Stay away from him. You tell his brother everything. Then you Run as fast as you can away from him. If you stay, Moriarty will kill him. I can tell you now he is not a man to be trifled with." She said, deadly serious.
Rosie's eyes went to my new necklace.
"You see that box there?" She said pointing to the back of my necklace.
"Yeah?" I said.
"That is a tracking device." She said.
"What?!" I gasped.
"You need to get out of here." She Whispered.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door. It was Liem.
"Keyland we found the third triplet." He barked through the door.
My escape plan would have to wait.
