Chapter 1
"You are the special~~" He sang and then whistled. His good mood was ruined when he heard an irritating voice through his communicator.
"Can you stop, Xander? This isn't a joke! We are in the middle of a mission."
He chuckled. In a taunting tone, he said, "Singing helps me relax, this kind of missions are tiring you know."
He heard her mutter,"Tiring he says.."
He continued,"I don't blame you. After all, you never get out of your house,Hazel. All you do is work in your computer, sweetie. Don't cry because we have experience in outside world and you don't." This time his tone is merciless.
This time when Hazel spoke it seemed like she wanted to murder him. "I can get you killed in an instant. If the gang members get to know that you are hiding in the roof of the building opposite to their club, do you know what will happen?"
This made Xander think. Maybe, teasing the hacker girl wasn't a good idea especially when he was in the enemies den. He sighed. Why did he sign up for this?
Why was he here again? Right! A billionaire's daughter has been kidnapped by a notorious gang. What was their name? Hotties? Hit man? Hatsukoi? Yes! Hatsukoi. Why on earth did a gang name themselves Hatsukoi which literally meant first love? Shaking his thoughts, he tried to focus.
He picked up his binoculars and looked at the club. Hmm... three guards not bad. He saw a lady trying to get in. Maybe, just maybe, he can enter too because now he had a plan.
He whispered,"Hazel! I think I know how to enter." Hazel replied,"Not now! We have other two members."
He argued,"Are they even going to appear? I think they chickened out."
She replied,"I know what the girl is upto. What's her name again? Lemme check." He could hear the ruffling of some papers on the other side. "Audrey! Yes, Audrey. She is resigning her job today. Then, she will join you."
He murmured,"Perfect! Job resignation is more important than this thing. What kind of stupid people am I working with?"
He asked,"The boy? Whatever his name was."
She said,"Oscar.. yeah well.."
Silence. Xander didn't hear her reply anymore. "Oi! You okay? What's wrong?"
Finally, she spoke. "He's already inside the club! I saw him using my drones."
What the... Xander quickly pulled his binoculars and started to search. Wait, that was Oscar! When did he get in? Why didn't Xander notice?
Oscar was wearing a tailored suit and his hand was on a girl's waist.
"That son of a bitch..!" He murmured. Hazel was saying something but Xander's patience had already ran out. He was never a team player and he will never be one. He just wanted money that's all.
Fixing his tie and his suit, he approached the club. The woman he had targeted had already entered the club. In her place, there was another woman. She wore a red dress and looked absolutely stunning. He didn't care about looks rather he cared but the money aspect. She looked wealthy.
He was an expert con artist. He knew what to do. He quietly bumped into her. The woman's purse fell down. Like a gentleman, Xander picked it for her. The lady smiled.
He handed her the purse. The lady muttered a thank you. He smiled again. "Anything for a pretty lady."
The lady tucked her hair behind her ears. "Really?"
"Yes, you are the prettiest lady I have seen today." To be honest, he wasn't lying. This lady was pretty. However, he felt like he knew her.
He put his hand forward,"Have we met before?" The lady put her hand on his hand and he kissed the back of her hand.
The lady smiled,"I don't think so. May i ask why are you here?"
He replied," I wanted to go to the club but it seems like I have forgotten my pass."
"Why don't you go with me? I have some important business there." She proposed.
He smiled. "Sure, my lady." He replied in a gentle tone. This was too convenient. This lady had ulterior purpose. He was smart enough to know when people are faking their personality.
In this case everything was screaming Fake. But, he didn't care. As long as his work got done, he didn't care about the lady at all.
He had noticed that the guards were checking everyone. He quickly threw his communicator away. Finally, he was free from Hazel's commentary and curses.
The lady wrapped his arm. They stopped at the door and the woman showed her pass. The guards allowed both of them to enter.
The lady led him directly to the dance floor. He put his hands on her waist and they started to dance. From the corner of his eyes, he could see Oscar dancing with someone. But, Oscar's eyes was fixed on someone.
Xander followed his gaze and saw the target "Sam". Sam was the gang leader's son. The one who had kidnapped the girl.
After a while, Sam got up from his seat . Oscar followed him. Xander whispered to the lady,"Hey, I have some work. I will be back in a second."
The lady nodded. For once, Xander thought he saw hurt in her eyes but he knew he was wrong.
He followed Sam. Oscar was nowhere around. Finally, he reached a dark alley.
Suddenly, Sam turned and smiled at him. Xander knew he was caught so he came out of hiding.
Sam's henchmen tried attacking him. But, someone punched one of the henchmen. That was none other than Oscar. Oscar unbuttoned his tuxedo and punched another man.
Xander wanted to say something but he noticed a man approaching him with a gun. He swiftly kicked the gun away.
Punching another guy,Oscar looked at Xander and pointed at himself,"Oscar!"
Introducing themselves during a fight wasn't actually ideal for him but he decided to go with the flow.
He replied,"Xander!"
A man tried to attack him from behind. It was so late for him to react. With his hand, he covered his head and became ready to embrace the impact.
Suddenly, someone kicked the henchman away. Removing his hands, Xander looked to see his saviour.
He was surprised to see the lady from before. She smiled at him and looked at Oscar.
Then, she said,"No told you guys that you shouldn't get distracted in the middle of a fight."
Oscar kept fighting another guy and smiled back,"That was a hell of a kick."
The lady smirked. She punched another guy."I am well aware of that. But thanks."
Xander was back on his feet. He targeted Sam now. If he caught their boss, everything would get sorted out.
Still he asked her,"Who are you?"
The lady punched another man and said,"Audrey".
Author's note: Its my first time writing a story like this. So, please give your opinion. I wanted to introduce everyone in this chapter but then I decided to introduce Xander properly.
