3rd Party POV

Reyansh and Adrian landed in Turkey, but because they did not have a visa and proper authorisation to land their private plane here, they faced a little issue. They were stalled for a short while, before Reyansh quickly solved the problem.

Adrian had a small army assembled to deal with Ryan and his army. They headed to the Warehouse, where Kyra and Krish were held hostage. Adrian wanted to storm the 'Castle', and enter guns a-blazing.

But Reyansh vetoed that strategy, for he knew that Ryan was a tricky bastard, and he didn't want to risk even a small chance that Kyra and Krish could be killed or caught in the crossfire.

He believed a stealthy approach would work best. So, it was decided that the small Army would wait outside and upon hearing the first gun shot, they would attack Ryan's army.

Ryan had created an impenetrable system or a no win situation, for a huge attack. Most of his personnel were posted all around the warehouse. So that if there was going to be any attack, he could hear it and instantly kill the hostages. Inside the warehouse there would be only 4-5 people, including himself. The satellite did a heat signature scanning and revealed this information.

That's why, only an insider could go and destroy the operation and save Kyra and Krish. Therefore, Reyansh came up with a plan, that Adrian was going to call Ryan and inform him that Reyansh had also been taken hostage and he was going to bring him to Ryan, so that they could torture the entire family together.

Ryan gladly agreed. Reyansh was going to be in the trunk of the car, Adrian would be driving the vehicle. Their army was going to wait for the signal and deal with the enemy's army.

Everything was progressing as per Reyansh's plan.

They entered the Warehouse. Ryan was bursting with joy, his evil little scheme was reaching fruition. He was finally going to get his hands on the almighty Reyansh. The head of the Mexican cartel that Reyansh had decimated was also present with 3 of his guy's.

Kyra and Krish sat there, looking apprehensively at the approaching vehicle.

Adrian got out of the car, stood near it and said, "Reyansh is in the trunk, in exchange for him I want Kyra, delivered to me right here, right now."

At this sentence, both Kyra and Krish, exchanged worried looks.

Ryan said as he moved to stand behind Krish with his gun out, "Straight to the point, you remind me of that bastard Reyansh. No matter, Reyansh is more important to me than this piece of ass. Tom free Kyra, and escort her to Mr. Adrian, then you and Jacob open the trunk and remove my prize."

Kyra was freed, but Krish kept thrashing in his chair and tried to speak, to stop Ryan from giving her to this unknown stranger. But he was unsuccessful and she was escorted to Adrian, she stumbled, weak and extremely worried but, Tom kept a tight grip and practically dragged her to her destination. The last few steps, he shoved her into Adrian's chest.

She would've fallen if not for the gentle but firm grip on her arms. She surprisingly didn't feel dirty or disgusted, when he put his arms around her. She oddly felt safe.

Meanwhile, Tom and Jacob with their guns out headed to the trunk, the moment they opened it, Adrian threw Kyra to the floor, the impact jarred her and suddenly two loud gunshots were heard in the silent warehouse. Tom and Jacob fell to the floor, they were dead.

Adrian also immediately fired 2 headshots and the victims were The Mexican cartel boss and his sidekick. He wanted to aim for Ryan, but Ryan stealthily ducked behind Krish's chair. Outside, loud gunshots could be heard as both the armies clashed.

Reyansh came leaping out of the car, saw Kyra for a second and then ran ahead, he stopped 10 feet away from a tied up Krish, along with Adrian.

Ryan now held a gun to Krish's head from behind. He said, "Stop right there, or your baby brother's brains will be splattered all over you. Set your guns on the floor, back up by 2 steps, and hold your arms up. If you try anything, then I'll shoot Krish, even if that's the last thing I do."

Reyansh and Adrian slowly set their guns on the floor, stepped back, and held their hands up.

Just then, one of Ryan's men entered the room from the opposite side, not near Kyra, and stood there with his gun pointing towards Reyansh.

Reyansh said, "You don't need to do this Ryan, my family has not harmed you in anyway. As a matter of fact. I haven't either, don't forget I saved you and gave you a better life, I don't know what you could possibly have against me. You have a chance to walk away, use it."

Ryan laughed, "Do you take me for a fool Reyansh? I know for a fact that you do not give second chances, especially not to someone who has kidnapped and harmed, your wife and brother. I'm going to finish what I started, it's either going to be your head or your brother's."

Reyansh said, "Kill me then, but let my family leave from here safely."

Ryan laughed, "You know what, it would be more fun for me and painful for you, if your brother died in front of your eyes."

Reyansh was now pissed off and was reaching his limit, when from the corner of his eye he saw 2 things happen simultaneously. He quickly turned his head, so that Ryan wouldn't notice it.

For one, Kyra picked up the gun which was fallen near her, it was that asshole Tom's gun and from her angle on the floor she aimed it towards Ryan. Secondly, behind Kyra, Dhruv had stealthily entered the warehouse and he had his gun trained on Ryan's man.

Now, Reyansh just needed to enrage Ryan enough that he would raise his gun from Krish's head for just a few seconds, so that Kyra could shoot Ryan and Dhruv could shoot the other guy.

Reyansh said tauntingly, "You are an ungrateful bastard, a curse, no wonder you were abandoned as a child. I took pity on you and gave you food and shelter, I trained you. If not for me you would be dead and lying in a ditch. I'm going to enjoy killing you slowly and steadily. You were always useless, and a piece of trash. I should've left you where you belong. If you hated me that much, why didn't you leave all these years?"

Ryan's anger was bubbling over and he said, "I'm not trash and I'm not ungrateful. I was devoted to the cause, I worked hard for many years. I lost my eye and suffered this huge scar on my face, during an assignment. I slogged for everything. But you, everything was easy for you, you had the looks, the girl's, the money. You let your stupid morality come in the way of so many assignments, I would've been so much richer if it hadn't. I decided to leave, I approached so many high profile people, but they were all loyal to you. No one was going to work with me independently. I was trapped being your sidekick for years."

Reyansh said, "That's it? That's the big reason you hate me for? You greedy traitorous asshole, I gave you ample money, you have more than 10 properties, 15 cars, and most of it is given by me. You lost your eye during the assignment, I specifically ordered you to drop and not continue. But no, your greed made you over zealous and you lost your eye, because of your mistake. You really are a sociopath, I should've had you tested or sent to a mental asylum."

Reyansh saw Ryan's temper was peaking and it needed one last nudge.

Reyansh quickly said in a very derogatory tone, "You are not man enough to deal with me directly, that's why you had to use my wife and hide behind my baby brother. You are an insult, no wonder the girl's can't stand you. You are a fucking coward."

Ryan screamed and raised his gun towards Reyansh. At that moment Kyra fired her gun and the bullet hit Ryan's arm, but due to the impact and suddenness, he pressed the trigger and the gun was aimed at Reyansh. On the other hand, Ryan's man was so distracted by the screaming contest, his gun was aimed downwards and he was fully absorbed in the conversation.

Dhruv's bullet tore through the guy's forehead and he fell to the floor. Meanwhile, Reyansh had ducked and nearly missed Ryan's bullet, and in one fluid motion Reyansh had pulled out his 2nd gun from behind him and shot Ryan in the forehead.

Reyansh then ran towards Krish to free him.

Once free, Krish jumped up from the chair and hugged Reyansh. Meanwhile, Adrian came towards Kyra and offered his hand to help her get up.

She used his hand as support and got up. Then some of Adrian's men entered the warehouse and he went to get a status update.

Dhruv headed towards Reyansh with a first aid kit. Which Krish snatched up and said, "I'll do it, all these years Bhaiya patched up my wounds, now it's my turn to help him."

But, Reyansh started heading towards Kyra, but she shook her head and said, "Please get first aid done, I'm going out for some fresh air."

He saw that she was in shock and decided to give her some breathing space and nodded, then removed his suit and shirt. Before, leaving Kyra saw that it was only a small wound and would barely require 3-4 stitches. The bullet only grazed him.

She headed out and took in 2 lung fulls of air, but she was still not able to calm down, adrenaline was coursing through her veins. She spotted the guy Adrian had been talking to her earlier, she approached him and removed her diamond bracelet and handed to him and said, "Take me to the airport, please, I request you. You can keep this Diamond bracelet in exchange for the small task."

The guy looked around briefly, then agreed and he took her to the airport. On the way she borrowed the driver's phone and made a call to her PA. Who used some of Kyra's connections and money, and chartered a private plane to take Kyra to London, immediately.
