Nex’s POV
“Hello ?”, I indignantly whispered into my secret bathroom telephone.
“Boss, trouble in Paris. We need to fly off right now”, Cade informed.
“Do I need to tell Alice ?”, I asked.
“No. I didn’t tell Jake either. I guess we will be back by the wee hours of the morning just in time to serve them breakfast”, he answered.
“What the f**k happened ?”, I demanded.
“Zero and Four”, he tersely replied and I swear I felt my inner volcano burst into flames on hearing those names. “They somehow got intel about the Vancouver deal so the meeting is happening in Paris at midnight”, he explained the situation.
“Ok reaching in ten”, I curtly answered back and clicked back the phone into the secret basin.

Alice’s POV
“What the hell, Four ?”, I whisper yelled as I placed back the knives in the kitchen cabinet and pulled out my guns and other equipment.
“I am sorry for the window but I promise you that the Chief will get it fixed within ten minutes”, Four replied as he helped me gear up in the kitchen’s secret wing and believe me, he did not look apologetic at all.
“Why the f**k are we going to Paris at this ungodly hour ?”, I demanded as I finished strapping up my secret belt and put on my boots.
“Because someone smelled a rat about our Vancouver traps and now the meeting has shifted to Paris. I guess we can be lucky because both the Dragon and the Snake will be there too”, Four explained in detail.
“What should I tell Nex ?”, I asked.
“Don’t tell him anything. We will be back before dawn”, he answered and I simply nodded my head as we got into the oven.
The secret elevator took us to my hidden basement and we quickly jumped into my bat mobile to catch hold of the villains in the City of Love.
That’s what we call dangerous love.

Nex’s POV
“So what’s the truth, Snake”, I asked as I sat in front of Cade in my private jet.
“The deal is happening in Vancouver according to the original plan, Boss. We are just creating a diversion to let the deal go on smoothly”, Cade replied.
“Did you find out the moles yet ?”, I questioned.
“I am hoping to see them along with Zero and Four tonight although I have my own fair list. However, it doesn’t hurt to catch them red handed”, Cade answered.
“What about Zero ? How will you capture him ?”, I asked as I tapped my tab and looked at the 3D plan of the fake meeting place.
“The building is a thirty story sky scraper, Nex. The pipelines and air vents have been tapped with body sensors. The moment Zero and his team touch any of those things, their digital body signatures shall be instantly captured”, Cade elaborated the plan.
“I want extra men near the building’s entrance and the window behind the meeting room”, I ordered and Snake’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Why would any fool use those places to ambush us ?”, he murmured.
“Zero will not use those conventional movie hyped methods”, I rolled my eyes. “He plays pretty clean which is impressive", I added and knitted my eyebrows suddenly as a thought flashed through my mind. “If Zero and Four are coming to Paris then does it mean that they are already there in the building ?”, I asked with a raised eye brow.
“Good for us then. We can seal the exits immediately after we enter”, Snake shrugged.
“I don’t want to be the fool of getting trapped instead”, I muttered and Snake chuckled.
“I have our escape plans in order, Nex. Relax”, he commented and rolled his eyes like a bratty teenager.
“I CAN’T WAIT TO CATH HIM. I REALLY HATE THAT SON OF A b***h”, I remarked as I watched our jet take off.

Alice’s POV
“I CAN’T WAIT TO CATH HIM. I REALLY HATE THAT SON OF A b***h”, I remarked as Four and I took our positions as waiters in the sky scraper’s luxury dining hall.
“I am beginning to think that I should pour out this poisonous alkaloid in that annoying b***h’s soup”, Four growled. “That’s like the hundredth time she is calling me for fixing something stupid when she so clearly only wants me on her plate and lick my gay face clean”, he grumbled.
“Go and attend to her and whatever needs she has. I will check on the window although it has been heavily guarded than other areas”, I noted.
“It would be better if we drop the window idea”, Four advised. “These people even attached body sensors in pipelines and air vents. What do they think we are ? Tom Cruise ?”, he chuckled.
“That means they are expecting us, Four ! The meeting is not happening here. It is still happening in Vancouver !!”, I exclaimed horrified as sudden realization dawned me.
“Oh s**t”, Four cursed under his breath. “We need to inform the Chief”, he said and walked away dialing the Chief’s personal number and to give the Vancouver team a heads up.
“We need to get out of here, Four”, I said with a tinge of urgency in my voice. “I don’t like the feeling of walking straight into the Dragon’s Den”, I explained.
“This is our chance to catch him, Zero. Don’t blow it off. He and Snake are personally coming here”, Four tried to stop me.
“No. We are leaving right now and that’s an ORDER !”, I commanded and the Paris team instantly aborted the mission and retreated back.
