"That's dangerous," Jameson said.
"Yeah.. I heard Griffin was planning to force her to be his bride so she had to.."
Jameson's fist hit the table at her word. All eyes turned towards him.
"Calm the fuck down Jameson" Phoenix whispered, her eyes scanning the military around.. they now had their full attention on them.
One of them marched towards them with a frown.
"Is anything wrong young man?" The man asked.
"Your food tastes bad" Jameson glared at him walking close. "Why are we eating crappy things here? Besides, who is this little son of a bitch here?" Jameson pointed his hand to Phoenix.
Phoenix tried to control her face from contorting into a confused one. What is Jameson doing?!
"Keep your cool and don't cause any trou..."
Jameson didn't let him finish as he smashed his food on the man's face. The prisoners around were shocked. He then took Einstein's food and poured it on Phoenix's head.
Phoenix saw Jameson wink at her asking him to just follow his lead.
"Hey! Are you insane!!" Phoenix yelled trying to keep her voice deep.
The man's angry gaze went to Jameson and roared. "You'll pay for this!!"
A punch flew to the man's face. Jameson held his collar. "How dare you raise your voice at me!!"
Other military immediately interfered and began to chain Jameson down.

Jameson was locked up in a dark strange room. He is sure Phoenix understands the signal he sent before he was taken away. This is not the first time they'll do something like this.
Jameson's lips moved, a pin in his mouth as he smirked.
The next day, during lunch.. Phoenix dropped a letter on one of the Prisoner's plates.
The prisoner frowned but then decided to read the latter.
*He is planning to kill you today, kill him now. You have the chance*
The prisoner's eyes widened and slowly looked at a huge figure. He stood up immediately grabbing a knife and marched fast towards him. In the next moment, blood splashed all over as he stabbed him.
A commotion began as two groups began to fight, drawing the attention of the other military men.. Aiden and Einstein secretly took one of the military cards and key.
The trio sneak their way out and lock the door. They froze seeing three military standing before them with a glare.
'C'mon Jameson' Phoenix thought and almost immediately, the alarm suddenly sounded.. worse.. the light turned dimmed.
The three immediately took action bringing down the three military. Soon, the three stepped out with military attire on.
Jameson kicked one of the military, causing him to pass out. He dragged his body to a corner and came out after a while with his attire on.
The alarm affected the building, causing a prison break.. prisoners gates opened and the military tried their best to fight them back.
The four got to the garage.. They hopped on one of the cars.
"Nice plan Aiden. Your technique was pretty easier than mine" Phoenix said.
"Not my first time" Aiden's face turned pale knowing he shouldn't have said that word. They all gave him a questioning look except Jameson.
"You've been in prison before?" Einstein asked.
"Three times. I broke out twice" Aiden swallowed.
"I love this guy," Phoenix stated.
"He's taken," Einstein interfered.
"Not anymore" Jameson said coldly, his eyes met with Aiden's gaze through the rearview mirror. Phoenix blinked with confusion wondering what happened between these two.
Jameson started the car and zoomed off.

In the cold dark night, the rain poured down heavily in the city. Candy eyes darted around holding her hoodie tightly close to herself.
She halted at a certain bar and took a deep breath before walking in. Her eyes scan the area, men and women drinking and smoking.
Some of them were indulged in sexual activities.
Candy found information of a man who can illegally transport her to where she wants to be, she doesn't mind spending a fortune. Traveling openly will attract Griffin.
She wants to do this alone.. she knows Yazmine and Jackie would try to stop her.
She took out her phone and checked the man's picture. Scanning her eyes, she found the man seated around the corner having two bitches with him.
"Evening, can I speak with you?" She asked. Her voice is not polite or rude..
Candy watched lust flashing in his gaze as they settled on her.
"You can join..."
"It's about business, I'll pay any amount" She stated and the man let out a light chuckle.
"Alright, come with me" The man demurred and headed towards the small hallway. Candy hesitated for a moment but had no choice but to follow.
"So what do you want, princess?" He asked as we walked.
"I'm heading to Moscow and I heard you can help" She stated, holding the knife in her pocket in case this man turned out to be one of Griffin's.
"Hmm, I sure can help. It would cost you a lot, little miss" He said.
"No problem," Candy said.
He stopped to open a room. "Come in"
As Candy walked in the man immediately pinned her to the wall, drawing his disgusting face close.
"It's going to cost you sex too," He whispered, trying to touch her.
Candy grabbed his wrist and swiftly pinned him. Taking the bottle she spotted it on the table. She smashed the man's head making him pass out.
Candy sighed, running her fingers through her hair. Gosh! She was right about this pervert laying on the floor unconscious right now.
She knowingly stepped on his hand before walking out of the room. Covering her head with a hoodie she got ready for her next destination.
Her shoulder bumped into someone but she didn't look back.
"Candy?" A familiar voice sounded.
With a frown, Candy looked back and found Hannah staring at her in shock.
"It's really you..."
Candy bought out her knife, pinning Hannah against the wall. The knife on her neck as she glared.
"Hey, hey, easy there. I'm not here to harm you. I only came here for a drink" Hannah quickly said.
"What? You should be in the damn hospital traumatized.."
"Yeah, I know.. but I recovered a week ago after Diego's death news spread all over, though my husband currently has no idea I'm fine..."
"You must be happy" Candy scoffed, drawing the knife closer.
"Can you at least listen to me? You look like a wife who doesn't believe her husband's death"
Candy dragged her, holding a fistful of Hannah's hair.
"You know something. Don't try shit with me. I'm on my crazy side. Trust me, you don't want to activate it" Candy warned. Hearing footsteps approaching, her head snapped towards the door on her right.
She immediately dragged Hannah in. Luckily, it was empty.
"Start talking" Candy demanded not taking the knife away from her neck.
"Can't we just sit?"
"So you can escape? Hell fucking no"
Hannah felt the blade slowly drawing out blood from her neck. Candy is serious.
"Fine, I heard something from my husband!!" She exclaimed and Candy loosened her hand a bit.
"And?"
Hannah whimpered at Candy's strong hold on her hair.
"I heard him crying beside me one night thinking I was still in my trauma state.. He was on the lookout during the attack in Moscow.."
"So?" Candy asked, badly wishing she could hear something good.
Hannah sucked in her breath.. she had no choice but to spill it out.
"The person who died wasn't Diego!.... It was Romeo!!".
Candy's face turned pale as she stuttered. "W..what?"
