Anita was fed up with Mr Gideon and she wasn't going to continue to pretend to be modest and calm when the man was taking her sacrifices to be in Abuja to meet with him and having stayed there for days just for him to make up his mind and sign the deal for granted. She was not ready to continue to with such a man whose carelessness had infuriated her.
She was about to leave the hotel when Mr Gideon came around and said to her, "I know you are angry with me for keeping you waiting all these while but the truth is that I am not signing the deal" he said.
"You are not and you haven't gotten back to me until now?" very well then; can I have the products back, the boss would want them back" she said.
"How do you propose to conceal the product until it reaches your city. Chill girl, we are the runners of this street. I will bring back your boss's products when everything is calm" he said.
"When everything is calm? You don't know or you have no idea how angry Mr Charles, my boss would be if I return to him without the document signed and without his goods? You need to either sign it or return the product so that we can do business with other buyers" said Anita. This must have triggered the animalistic side of Mr Gideon as he walked up closer to her and bringing his face closer to hers said, "I said leave the city of Abuja and return to your own city. Your boss will be angry? oh I forgot, that's what he is good at; he is always angry like a bird but that should be his problem as I do not care about that. I run this city and I decide what happens here. When I come to his own city or when I send someone to his city he can decide to take the final shot"
"What you are doing is stealing from him and he is going to interpret it just as that. You know what happens to people that steal from Charles" Anita reminded him.
"He should try" he said and ordered his men to see to it that Anita returned to her city before he left the room. Anita understood what that meant and she kept shouting at him, "You will pay for this!!!" the men, four of them forced themselves on her and left the hotel.
*******
Mr Charles had received the video of what happened in the hotel. Anita having heard that Mr Gideon was downstairs put a recording device somewhere close to where it would capture her and anyone else in the room. So when Mr Gideon entered the room with his men everything he said was recorded alongside how his men forced themselves on Anita. When Charles finished watching the video he called in some of his men and ordered them to travel to Abuja and help Anita in returning home.
By the time the men that Mr Charles sent to Abuja could reach she was already in the hospital.
Veronica was told about this by Charles and she could not believe it.
"How is she by now?" she asked.
"She is good" Mr Charles said and got up, pacing, "I know that I am many things but what I am not and can never be is a man who forcefully sleeps with a woman. I know how that hurts, I know the pain, I know the trauma" he said and she could sense experience in his tone.
"You speak as though you have passed through that or someone you loved passed through that ordeal" she said and he looked at her.
"I have passed through alot Veronica and this, yes, this is one of them; having to spend all night and all day thinking about that experience. You see, beasts aren't born in men, they are made in men and the most tragic thing about it is that men are the ones who make beasts out of their fellow men. Now here is the thing; I have sent men to bring her back"
"What about the man that did this to her?" asked Veronica.
"I'm thinking of a way to make him pay for it" said Charles.
"You don't need to think much boss, send me" said Veronica and Mr Charles stared at her for a while, wondering if she had just decided to be part of the organization.
"Does this mean we are now even?" he asked.
"No, I don't know but she is my friend and I would like to deal personally with that man, the man that thought he could go free with this" she said and Mr Charles got up and said, "Very well then. Whatever happens just know that I want Mr Gideon dead and nothing more or less"

Anita had returned to the city of Enugu and Mr Charles had gone to pay her a visit. When he got to her apartment he saw that some of the members of the organization were already gathered in her house, helping her with most of the things she needed. He walked up to her where she was lying on the bed and sat close to her.
"Boss" she called.
"You will be fine" said Charles.
"I hope so. Where is Veronica Boss?" she inquired.
"She is on her way to Abuja" he said.
*******
Veronica entered Abuja and saw that the city was good. She entered a luxurious hotel and settled there. He had Mr Gideon's contact and she had also been notified by her Intel that he would be attending a nightclub that very night. She got ready in her most sexy gown and went out. She first arrived the club before him and settled down, alone. A young man, with mustache came around and tried to get her attention but she was not ready for that as she dismissed him with silence. Shortly another guy came through and she knowing these boys were rich could also perceive they lacked home training. She stood up and made her way to the rest room. She was there when she overheard a lady that entered the rest room say that Mr Gideon had arrived with his boys.
"I knew tonight was going to be great. What a night it will be" said the second lady.
"Mr Gideon is a stingy drug lord and he won't look our way, not until we are ready to allow him do with us whatever he wished" said the second lady.
"If he wanted to do with us whatever he wished then we will let him" said the second lady.
"It is not that simple. Mr Gideon requests ladies to do for him things that are unthinkable and I am not ready to loose my life, I'm a student and my parents need me" said the first lady before they left the rest room. Their conversations sunk into the head of Veronica and she was certain it was Mr Gideon that had arrived. She got ready to do what had brought her to the city of Abuja.
Inside the room in the club where Mr Gideon was with her men he requested for a lady for a company and one was brought to him. That one was Veronica. Veronica sat on his leg and continued to reveal some part of her that would make the man desire to have her right there. When he moved his fingers to touch her she refused and asked him to do away with his men.
"I can't do away with my men. They make sure I'm fine" he had said, by now panting rapidly as a lion ready to devour it's prey.
"If you cannot do away with them then forget it, I can't be part of what you are asking of me" she tried to remove herself from him but all of a sudden the man forced her back on him and asked his men to leave the room at once and they left, shutting the door behind them. Immediately the left the man got naked and waited to be ravished by the robust Veronica. Veronica however got on him and with the man's eyes closed she drew a dagger she had previously hid in the room before the arrival of Mr Gideon and buried it in his throat, causing him to die instantly. Once she discovered she had achieved her aim she opened the window and brought out the rope she had come with which she also hid in the room and threw it down, with it's edge fixed against a rod in the room and then she scaled down using the rope. Immediately she was done she started running, dialing the number of Mr Charles.

Anita got up from where she had been lying down and looked at the face of Mr Charles and asked, "Have you eaten anything yet boss?"
"yes I have" he lied.
"You have not and it is written all over you Sir. You can't be looking out for me this way. I'm already fine. You need time to rest" she advised and he sighed and got up. He kissed her forehead and then left. Anita was happy that Charles did that and she smiled. Ken approached her and said, "The man that did this to you is dead" He then walked out amidst the shock on Anita's face and met with Charles who already mounted his car and said to him, "Veronica called your line but I picked it. Mr Gideon is dead. Now Veronica is on the run. Boss, we need to send her a backup. You know Gideon has men all over the city of Abuja and there is no way Veronica will leave that city alive. We need to go for her"
"Calm yourself Ken. If she was able to kill a man like that then she will be able to return here safely. By this deed of hers she has proven to me that she is going to be useful to this organization. Keep her on the line always and since she herself hasn't requested for backup let's wait and see how she goes through this and out safely" Ken understood him very well and then Charles was driven out of the compound.
Rose was hearing the news and watching it also; a drug lord had been killed in the city of Abuja and it was clear that it was a woman that did it. Just as she was about to increase the volume of the television there was a knock on her door and she walked to the door and saw it was Charles. She opened it immediately and showed him the news.
"I know" said Charles.
"With his death so does our connect in the North" said Rose.
"You are learning fast each passing day. Well about Mr Gideon, I think he got what he deserved. Let's say that the killer gets away with it then we can have this conversation in it's fullness" said Charles.
"I know that you don't have a hand in his death but whoever did must be against you too. If this is the case then you have to double your security" said Rose.
"Now that's the Rose I know. Well, I have nothing to loose since I made him loose everything, his life" revealed Charles and this shocked Rose to the brim as she kept staring at him. "Yes, I did. Mr Gideon was becoming too proud of himself and he thinks he knows alot. It was a woman like you that took him out but the woman in question is none other person but Veronica" When he said this Rose felt Veronica was too timid still for such kind of job.
"Yes, few days ago she did not want to be part of anything that has to do with our family but suddenly she decided to be part of it and I'm proud of her"
