Chapter 103: Gun Ride

MIA

My heart raced faster as he stared at me with his dull eyes that were getting more bothersome.

He hasn't recovered yet. It is written all over his face.

Why is he doing this?

I hope he picks the first option.

His eyes lowered on my body momentarily and then back to my eyes.

"Fine, the pajamas are trustworthy. At least you won't catch a fucking cold." He said, starting his car.

I furrowed my brows. "Wha....are you seriously picking the second option?"

"Do me a favor and put your seatbelt on,"

I scoffed.

"Come on, Shawty," he said, placing his other hand on the head of my seat and driving towards the gate.

I shook my head as I grabbed my seat belt and strapped it on.

We drove out the gate and hit the road.

I fiddled with my fingers as I stared at him.

He has one hand on the wheel, the other still on the head of my seat, and his eyes are focused on the road.

How could he be driving? He is sick.

Where does he want to be so bad that he doesn't care about his health?

When he said he would see me later, I didn't think he was going out but to his room.

Not until I heard the sound of the main entrance door opening and closing.

I hurried out of the kitchen and out of the house. There he was, getting into his car.

I had to stop him but ended up here, right now, going to God knows where.

What is with him?

"Enjoying the ride, baby?"

I looked at him. He is smirking at me.

"You know, it is nice to have you here though." he withdrew his hand from the seat and took my hand.

"I feel good with you here," he added, kissing my knuckle while staring at the road.

My heart fluttered uncontrollably.

Okay, stop. Don't forget you are upset with him.

I withdrew my hand from his hold, catching him off guard.

I rested my eyes on the road as I sensed him looking at me.

"What is wrong, Shawty? What's with the attitude lately?"

I didn't respond but brushed the strand of my hair behind my ear.

"You back to your hating mode again? I thought we were cool."

"Can you please tell me where we are going?" I asked, looking at him.

He held my gaze without answering my question.

Sighing, he moved his eyes to the road.

"Where are we going?"

"To deal with some motherfuckers who tried to step on Big Kai's toes." He said, staring at me.

I furrowed my brows slightly.

"You.....you are going to fight?"

"Nah, baby."

I stared at him.

"I am going to kill."

I swallowed, feeling terror clouding me a little.

He moved his eyes to the road, steering the wheel in a direction. The light-filled city is lonely and a bit quiet but I can only hear the noise of this car.

It is almost like we are the only thing moving in this huge city.

He said he is going to kill.

I looked at him.

He is focused on the road.

He is never going to change, is he?

It is almost like killing is one of his professions. I mean he is a gangster.

Gangsters don't change, do they?

I moved my eyes to the road, thinking about his health.

He doesn't seem to care about that. Because tell me why a sick person would be driving himself to wherever just to kill his offenders?

I don't get him.

A hissing sound from him, made me look at him.

He is running his fingers through his braids and down to his forehead.

"Fuck," he muttered, closing his eyes momentarily.

Oh, God. He must be having headaches.

"You need to go back to bed, Big Kai."

"Fuck that," he muttered.

"You are not feeling well."

"I am fine, shawty."

"But....."

He threw me a glare, shutting me up.

His eyes softened a bit.

"I will be fine. Trust me," he assured.

I moved my eyes to the road and for some unknown reason, I didn't feel uncomfortable by his glare but worried about his health.

What if he passes out or something?

How will I take him back?

I can't even drive and I don't have a phone.

Maybe I could use his.

No, I hope he doesn't pass out. We need to go back right now.

I looked his way and was about to speak but he turned the wheel violently, making me hold the handle on the top instantly.

Next, I found us driving into an underground car park.

My heart picked up as the car bounced while we drove further in.

I looked his way.

He is focused on the way.

Next, I heard noises and gunshots coming from afar.

I looked at Big Kai.

He has a gun in his hand.

My heart dropped.

He cocked it instantly, making me flinch.

I looked ahead and I saw some people fighting from a distance.

What is going on?

I looked at Big Kai.

His window lowered and he moved his hand out of it.

What is he....

He looked at me.

I swallowed.

"Duck,"

I furrowed my brows slightly but obeyed the minute I understood what he meant.

He began shooting, making me cover my ears with my hands.

The entire place became noisier. It turned into a commotion I can't see or else I will be shot.

God, why did I come with him?

I didn't think he was coming for this.

Why didn't I think of that?

"It's Big Kai!" I heard people say.

Next, I felt the car spinning as he kept shooting. The car got bullets too, forcing screams out of me.

My heart begged to jump out of my body as I thought of tonight being my end.

What is this?

The commotion went on for minutes and I didn't know when I started saying a prayer.

Not long later, everything died down and the car came to a stop.

Big Kai got out of the car, taking my attention as my heart kept pounding.

Shuddering, I slowly raised my head but....

"Fuck you, Big Kai!"

BANG!

I flinched, ducking instantly as terror washed over me.

Someone was shot.

Big Kai.

The silence messed with my sanity as I thought of the worst.

Slowly, I rose, staring ahead.

Some boys are on their knees with their hands up and Big Kai is standing in front of them but has his gun pointed down at the dead body on the ground.

I swallowed as I felt relieved within.

I thought he was shot.

"Anyone else wanna fucking speak up?!" He yelled.

I flinched.

No one answered.

The place is filled with cars on both sides, bodies littered on the ground, and the few men shuddered as they stared at Big Kai.

A familiar man walked towards Big Kai, saying something to him that I can't hear.

Big Kai looked at him as he spoke.

It is the man from Bricktown. He is one of Big Kai's men.

The dead men and the ones kneeling must have done something bad for Big Kai to do this, right?

I mean.....he can't.....he can't kill people for no reason, can he?

I swallowed as my thoughts moved deeper.

What if they didn't do anything?

I rested my eyes on Big Kai.

He is still staring at the man who is still saying something to him.

Next, Big Kai looked my way.

My heart picked up.

He returned his gaze to the man.

He said something to him and walked back walking towards me as the man moved to the car close to him.

Next, one of the men kneeling stood up and began rushing towards Big Kai.

My heart dropped.

"Look out!"

Big Kai shot him without looking back.

I froze, staring as the man's body limped and fell to the ground.

Oh, God.

Big Kai looked at his man on the ground. He walked towards him and shot him again, making me flinch.

"Reeko!"

"OG,"

"All of 'em motherfuckers are yours," Big Kai said.

"T for thanks, OG," the man said as Big Kai walked towards me.

The boys begged as the man took out a huge gun.

My heart pounded as I stared at them while Big Kai got into the driver's seat.

The man cocked his gun, making me flinch.

My chin was grabbed and I locked eyes with dull icy blue ones.

"You okay?"

I opened my mouth to speak but.....

BANG! BANG!! BANG!!!

I screamed, ducking as the gunshots went on.

Big Kai started the car and began driving us backwards but the gunshots were still there.

I remained still as we drove for minutes. My pounding heart was relentless to tame.

I didn't think my night would be like this.

That's a lot of bloodshed.

"You can sit up now, shawty. We're out of there." He said, chuckling a bit.

I looked at him as I sat up gently.

We are on a quiet road. Perhaps, heading back home.

I rested my eyes on him as he drove.

He looked my way and then back at the road.

"Sup?"

"You...you didn't have to kill the remaining people."

He scoffed. "That wasn't me. It was Reeko."

"You ordered him to do so."

"Nah, shawty. I told 'em the fuckers are his. He chose to light them up," he shrugged. "That's his business."

I scoffed. "Seriously, I can't believe I let myself go with you to kill people."

He looked at me.

"You gave me options and I picked one." He shrugged again, returning his eyes to the road.

I shook my head in disbelief.

"You chose to take me to that place? What if I got shot?"

"That can't happen, baby. Big Kai's girl can't get shot. Or else the world would burn."

My heart reacted instantly.

"Besides, my car is fucking bulletproof and I am good with guns. Faster even."

I shook my head, moving my eyes to my window as I let out a sigh.

"Come on, shawty. Still mad at me?"

I rolled my eyes.

"Talk to me, girl."

I kept staring at the window.

"What is.....oh shit."

I looked at him.

He is holding his forehead.

My heart picked up instantly.

"What's wrong?"

He lowered his hand, closing and opening his eyes.

"My head hurts."

"We are almost home. You shouldn't have...."

He chuckled slightly, making me furrow my brows.

He looked at me.

"What's funny?"

"I'm the one handling the wheel and shit, and you said we are almost home. That cracked me up a bit. It's not as if you are familiar with this road, are you?"

I scoffed.

He chuckled.

I faced the road.

Unbelievable.

"I'm glad you see my place as your home."

I rubbed my arm slightly.

"'Cause that's what it is, shawty. Your home. I did tell you you are the queen of my place."

My heart fluttered.

"You remember that?"

"Can you please just hurry up so you can get home and go to bed?" I asked without looking at him.

No response.

I looked at him.

He is looking at me.

"You need your medication, Big Kai. Hurry up."

His eyes fell on my lips and then back to my eyes.

"Yes, ma'am."

I furrowed my brows.

He winked at me.

I let out a scoff, turning my face to the window as my heart fluttered more.

I brushed my hair back and pursed my lips, killing the urge to smile.

God, he is.....ugh.

MINUTES LATER....

AT KINCAID MANSION.....

I got out of the car before he could get to my door, ignoring his gaze as I closed the door after me.

"This again, Shawty?"

I looked at him.

He is standing in front of me with his hands in his pockets, staring at me dully.

"I might be going through some annoying shit right now but it doesn't mean I can't punish you for disobeying me," he said, causing the need to clench my legs.

He moved closer.

My head picked up again.
