Is this destiny?

Chapter 719 - Trouble In LA Medical Center (7)

~ LA Medical Center ~

In the back of the LA Medical Center main building, on the parking lot, Sarah and Aiden are facing Lazo.

Lazo is staring at two young people who are holding hands and both of them have confident smiles on their faces.

He estimated that Sarah is the weaker and faster of the two. If he attacks her, she can't use her speed and dodge how she used to do because now she is holding hands with Aiden. And if she gets a direct hit from him, even with blocking, she will suffer great damage from the impact.

'I will show them.', Lazo gritted his teeth and rushed toward Sarah.

He was half a step away from his leg connecting to Sarah's body, when he faced her confident gaze.

'She is not dodging and has no intention to block!' That was the thought that flew through his mind at the moment Aiden's powerful kick sent him flying backward.

Lazo stumbled, preventing himself from falling. He glared at Aiden and Sarah and confirmed that they are still holding hands. Is their plan that Sarah will just stand like a decoy while Aiden fights? He will try again.

Lazo rushed again toward Sarah. This time he is knows that Aiden will use his legs. With unexpected agility, instead of attacking, Lazo leaped over them with intention to attack Sarah from the back. He was mid-air when he saw that Sarah moved one step to the front to give space to… Aiden's attack. Again, Lazo received a vicious kick in the chest without a chance to defend himself and it sent him flying several meters away from the couple who held hands and exchanged loving gazes.

Aiden glared at the man wearing doctor's coat who took his time getting back on his feet. "Why are you attacking her? Do you think I will allow you to lay a finger my woman?"

Sarah smiled and her hold on Aiden's hand intensified. Her heart flutters every time he claims openly that she is his.

Aiden's expression didn't change while his eyes were on Lazo, but his thumb caressed back of Sarah's palm, acknowledging her feelings.

Lazo paused and swallowed hard. There is no way he will attack Aiden. Aiden is the stronger one… they exchanged blows already, and it's like attacking a rock. And it seems he can't attack Sarah either. Two of them are very well coordinated and she is not even defending because she trusts that Aiden will protect her… and so far, it's working. One thought was left in his otherwise blank mind: 'RUN!'

He turned away and ran as fast as his legs allowed.

Aiden and Sarah went after him like the wind, without any intention to let him go.

At the same time, Sarah bent her knees and leaped while Aiden twisted his body at the hip, giving her additional momentum before letting go of her hand. Sarah flew over Lazo while twirling in an elegant somersault before landing softly in front of him.

Lazo stopped in his tracks and held his breath while looking at Sarah in disbelief.

"You are cheating! You said that you will hold hands!", Lazo screamed while angrily pointing his finger at Sarah.

Sarah gave him a chilling smile. "Holding hands is only during fighting. The moment you decided to run, fighting stopped and the bashing begins."

"Bashing? I will give you bashing!", Lazo hollered and rushed toward Sarah.

Sarah avoided his attack by bending slightly and as she straightened her body, her palm stroke his chin from below. He just processed that some of his teeth cracked when her kick sent him few steps backward.

Lazo was dazed. She was not this strong or fast when he fought her previously! He forgot that Aiden is behind him, and his expression showed mix of pain and shock when he got hit from the back. Lazo clambered forward and was met with Sarah's foot again.

For more than dozen rounds, it looked like an unusual game of pinball where Lazo is the ball bouncing off from Sarah and Aiden.

It was like Sarah said: bashing.

Every inch of Lazo's exposed skin was mix of blue and purple mixed with streaks of blood when he plopped to the ground, unable to move.

Sarah's eyes didn't move away from Aiden's.

Adrenalin was running wildly thorough her veins and she barely noticed that she stepped on Lazo's back while walking toward Aiden.

She leaned into his welcoming embrace and took a deep breath. Sarah's hands fisted Aiden's t-shirt and it took her few breaths for his woody-flowery fragrance to calm her down completely. Her hands relaxed and her open palms pressed his back, holding him close to her. When she looked up at him, her vicious glare was replaced with a clear gaze full of love.

Aiden loves that he has this effect on Sarah. Having her in his embrace makes him feel at peace as well.

…

Jarred and Charlie, and number of bodyguards who were conscious were not sure what to think while they watched from the side two people holding each other gently after the mayhem they caused.

Jarred wanted to call out to Sarah and Aiden, but then he saw them kissing, so he swallowed his words and decided to wait. He cleared his throat and looked at Charlie. "We should check how our men are doing."

Charlie responded with a series of rapid nods.

"I think we should hire Sarah as our security. Or at least ask her to train our men.", Charlie mumbled as he watched five bulky men who were still unconscious, lying on the ground.

Jarred showed a bitter smile. "Do you think she is available? Even if she is, I don't think we can afford her."

…

Sarah broke the kiss and rubbed her face in Aiden's chest. "We should continue this at home… we have audience..." Sarah was implying to Jarred, Charlie and their men.

Aiden pushed a strand of hair behind her ear and agreed. "Talking about audience, we should take care of one detail…" He gestured toward the security camera at the level of the second floor of the LA Medical Center façade which is pointing to the parking lot.

"You take the doctor. When he wakes up, we can have a chat. Actually, we will take all of them. I will handle security footage." Sarah tapped her earpiece. "Eve, delete security footage from the back parking lot of LA Medical Center from last fifteen minutes."

Few seconds later, Eve's voice came into Sarah's earpiece: "Master, I'm not able to perform your last command. The files are locked. It's being streamed."

Sarah paused and tapped her earpiece again. "Eve, obtain the IP address from the stream source. Kill the connection to the feed forcibly and delete video including any existing copies from all locations. If anyone interferes, obtain detailed logs."

Aiden stopped next to Sarah. He was holding onto ankle of unconscious Lazo, dragging him carelessly. "Problems?"

Sarah shrugged. "I don't know… someone is streaming our show.." She looked straight at the camera and smiled mischievously.
