BLUE'S POV

I was about to chase them when my co agents came.

Yngrid pulled me towards her and she put handkerchief on my face.

"You're bleeding."

I slightly move my face away and hold the handkerchief myself.

"Thank you."

Surprisingly Director Estebor arrived.

"What happened Velez?"

"I shoot the other Kana, then the other came to the rescue, I got shot and they got away." My shoulder hung low on my recklessness.

"Motherfucker, Let's go. We already captured the rest of the foreigners and the involved in this transactions. That Dark Angels will be dead soon." He commanded us again and we all followed him.

Yngrid come closer to me.

"How do you feel?" She seems so concerned.

I'm holding myself not to be piss. The way she ask is kinda insulting,

"I'm fine, It's just a miss. Far from the intestines."

Though I am still piss on myself, I'm such a failure.

The Scene of the Crime Cooperatives (SOCO) came also to investigate.

We talked to them, about the empty bullet shell casing that belonged to the other Dark Angel.

This is a big lead to his identity according to Director Estrebor, only a few known people owned this kind of gun.

'I will definitely know you soonest.. Kana'

ASH'S POV

I am holding Mix's hand, I've been sitting beside his bed since Anson removed the bullet an inch away from his pancreas. If I didn't hurry, Mix might die.

It's so funny to think that my brother was nearly dying, And I know I will receive some bad scolding from Dad later and yet here I am thinking about that NBI agent that we encountered a while ago.

His eyes is so tantalizing.. His gaze was like sipping my soul from within.

I cupped my face when I felt it heat up,

Not even in my entire life that I look at any men like that because All I thought was BLUE. our parents knew our sexual references, and I am happy that they accepted me. No one was straight on us, even the ruler can be bend. So we beg to never differ.

Mom Luz tap my shoulder.

"You've been spacing out, I called you many times, you didn't notice me, to think that you amongst your brother has sharp senses. Something bothering you?" She smiled and sit beside me.

I scratch my nape.

"Uhm, does being an NBI agent needs to be handsome?"

Mommy Luz pretended to be shock, her mouth opens and closes. Then she smiled widely.

"Seems like our youngest had reach puberty already. Do you like someone? Your brother Tawan will be a father soon, New is pregnant.. Mix will get married to Earth soon, Anson is engaged as well. I know Gene is dating someone but he's keeping it on himself for now." Her smile didn't fade.

I shook my head, my lips turns an "o" try to deny.

"It's not like that Mom.. That agent that we encountered earlier, he felt familiar though I am certain, that was the first time I saw him."

"Don't think about that again.. Remember what your father said to all of you when it comes to choosing the partner for life?"

I nod. "Don't fell in love with law enforcers.." I look down and bit my lips.

"I didn't say that I'm ready to love Mom."

Mommy Luz nodded, she looks convinced.

"You know our working nature, no matter how good our ideology, goal and aim, we are still criminals on their eyes. Take care son." she hugged and comfort me.

We are in that position when Anson came in.

"Ash, Dad wants you in the study." He informed me and goes towards Mix to check him up.

"Is he mad?" I said in a low tone.

"So mad.. He's smoldering as of the moment, now go there fast before he will turn into a charcoal." He said in a serious face.

"Asshole." I stood up to pinch him when Mommy Luz held my hand.

"Enough of that, kids! Go to your father now before his anger will turn to be charcoal.. It will be hard for you to remove it."

My chest hammered on anxiety, Dad rarely got angry.. But if he is.. Just beware.

I push the door of the study room open.

He is busy reading something in his desk when I opened the door, he look up at me in his sharp eyes.

"What did you do?!" He asked in a stern voice, probably trying to suppress his anger.

I look straight in his eyes without blinking and I answered with conviction.

"I helped Mix."

"Did you use your personal gun?!"

I nodded.

"Shit! How can we escape this? All the guns we have used in protection was registered in Camp Crame. Now, they got that empty bullet shell that you used, they will identify you.. Do you hear me? I purchased that gun in Europe and was made by a famous gun maker. Only three of you owns that kind of gun in the Philippines! The chances of having you as a suspect is high as in high that my blood pressure is rising now Ash!"

I slap my own forehead.

Why I didn't think about that? Dad already told us that whatever or wherever mission we will go, we will use the guns that was being stock in our safe houses.

Why Am I so idiot! I let myself be off guard by my emotions.

"Anyway.. Don't think about it.. I'll find a way." he turn his back on me and pour for himself an expensive wine in a rock glass.

"And since you are nosy, you will do the mission yourself while Mix is recovering Kill Senator Quibranza before their human trafficking transactions to Japan happen."

I nodded, and I agreed.

"I'll oblige. And I'm sorry Dad."

"You can leave."

I immediately got out of the study room.

In times like this, weekend. Mostly, Senator Quibranza will be on one of his private stripper club.

I need to dress up as a woman.
