Chapter 61: Call this a first warning

Chapter Sixty- One

Markus shoved his empty plate aside, the scrape of ceramic against wood sharp in the quiet room. His phone buzzed, disturbing the silence. He glanced at the screen and it was Asli’s father.

’Where are you?’ The message was written on the screen.

His jaw tightened. Fingers curling around the device, he exhaled sharply through his nose, and a low growl rumbled in his throat.

He thought the man was going to give him at least two days to get away from him. Why was he asking where he was? Was he, not the same person who asked him to leave?

’I want you to follow me to Maxwell’s household. Shoot anyone who is a threat.’ the message followed the first one.

He yelled while he threw his spoon inside the empty bowl. Where was Asli that he had to go with him? Did she not come back? Did she sleep outside?

He had to tell Ahmet something before he even left. Where was Ahmet, even?

Did he also not return last night? If he did, they would’ve even trained together this morning. Since he didn’t call him, or see him during their training hours, he was certain Ahmet was still not back.

’The imbecile is out there having fun while I am in the mess!’ he thought with a smile. He was going to pay him back.

Markus eased the car to a stop outside Marco’s Villa, the engine’s low hum fading as he killed the ignition. He draped his right hand over the steering wheel, tapping his fingers against the leather.

Outside, warm light spilled from Marco’s library’s windows, shadows shifting behind the curtains. He exhaled, staring ahead for a moment, then ran a hand through his hair before finally pushing the door open and stepping out.

His footsteps crunched against the gravel path before continuing into the corridor. Every step is measured and unhurried.

As he approached the door, he raised his fist and knocked three times. The silence lasted a beat before a voice from inside yelled out. Without hesitation, he pushed open the door and entered.

"What took you so long?" Marco’s voice almost sounded like he was yelling, though his face was calm but angry. He was always angry. Had there ever been a day he had seen him with a happy face before?

Markus stayed put as he ordered him to follow him.

The drive was quiet and awkward. Nobody uttered a word and he could sense fear radiating through the driver and the other man who accompanied them. Was the man that scary?

They pulled over in front of Maxwell’s Villa. Markus never liked the cocky brat anyway. How dare he plan to touch Asli without her permission? He didn’t know why that triggered him on a different level.

He didn’t know why he wanted to protect the girl. He didn’t go after him because he knew Asli didn’t need anyone fighting her battles for her and even if she did, he was well aware Ahmet would be first to jump to that.

He knew how lonely she was. She had no friends and wouldn’t let anyone in. He pitied her. Though she was powerful and could not care less about her own well-being, he wished she at least knew how beautiful life was. He didn’t know why he cared for her. Maybe, it was because of Ahmet.

"Welcome, Mr. Marco. What brings you here? You didn’t call before coming." Maxwell’s father greeted him with a smile. These two were friends. But, with men like them, could they even call anyone a friend?

Marco didn’t answer, he walked past him and went inside. The other man had a huge frown on and Markus followed without greeting too.

"What is the meaning of this?" The other man felt disrespected. He wouldn’t blame him for that.

"I am here for your son." Marco finally spoke.

"My son? He is probably at the golf house. He’s taking care of business." The man seemed proud of his son. Imbeciles. Markus wanted to yell but controlled himself.

"I see. So I must think you do not know what he did, right?" Marco questioned and the other man asked him to go straight to the point. Both of them were heated up.
