BETTER THAN ROMEO - CHAPTER 45&46
“I will let her go after I sleep with you” Romeo said with a menacing smile.
Julia shook her head fearfully. Her hands folded together as she begged him. “Don’t do this Romeo, this is not you” She begged.
“You don’t know what I’ve been through for years before you get to tell me if this is me or not” He continued to point the gun at her.
“You can’t do this” Julia cried.
“I guess you don’t love your boyfriend so much to sacrifice your P?$$¥ for his mother” He shook his head unbelievable. “If I were him, I would run far away from you”
“We are not together anymore, we broke up” Julia replied.
“But are you gonna tell me you don’t love him anymore?” Romeo asked.
“Why are you doing this Romeo?” Julia asked while crying. “Last time I remember, you aren’t like this, you would ever abduct anyone” Julia looked surprised.
“I guess I’m not the same as last time and I think I’m being nice now. Get on the bed or I will ki|| her and you have just ten seconds” Romeo warned.
“One” He began counting while Julia pleaded in tears.
“Two”
“Three”
“Three”
“Four”

JAKE’S APARTMENT•••
“Mom?” Jake looked confused to see Martha standing at his doorstep and looking at him with teary eyes.
He then looked at Bryan who also looked confused.
“I thought you said my mom was kidnapped?” He asked.
“I thought so too, I’m so confused here” Bryan replied.
“What’s going on? What do you mean you thought I was kidnapped?” Martha asked.
“Where have you been?” Jake ignored her question and asked his own. Hr have been looking for her since the wedding and she suddenly showed up.
Martha gave him a look mixed with guilt and Jake shook his head.
“Don’t tell me it’s what I think it is” He pleaded.
“I’m sorry Jake, I didn’t know how to tell you and I know about you and Julia. I didn’t want to spoil things for the both of you when I’m not even sure of what I want” She explained to him with teary eyes.
Jake shook his head and moved back then punched the wall three times.
“Julia is still in danger” Bryan reminded them.
“It’s all my fault” Jake mumbled. He went back to the apartment and took his phone, he called her number but couldn’t reach her.
“What happened to Julia?” Martha asked worriedly.
“You just stay out of it!” Jake pointed at her, giving her a warning look as he tried Julia’s number again but it wasn’t reachable.
“I should have listened to her. I shouldn’t have kicked her out, I shouldn’t have said the things I said” Jake can’t help but blame himself for everything that’s happening.
“Now is not the time to curse yourself. We need to find Julia” Bryan told him.
Jake nodded and made to leave with Bryan when Martha stopped them.
“Let me go with you guys. I’m also worried about Julia” She looked at them with pleading eyes.
“If you promise to me useful then you can come with us” Bryan replied and led them to his car before driving off.

BRYAN’S APARTMENT ••
“You can’t be serious!!” Aime complained angrily at the phone before hanging up and going to meet the girls sitting in the living room.
“What did they say?” Kaelyn asked.
“She’s not declared missing because it’s not up to 24 hours” Aime rolled her eyes and slumped on her chair, thinking on what next to do.
The door opened and Bryan walked in with Jake and Martha.
“What’s going on?” Aime looked confused seeing Martha walk in with them.
“Have you found Julia?” Kaelyn happily asked.
“It’s a long story. We will explain when we find Julia and make sure she’s okay” Bryan replied.
“So what’s the plan now?” Kelvin looked confused.
“Anybody have Julia’s laptop or phone?” Jake asked.
“She took her phone with her but her laptop is here and I don’t know the password” Aime brought the laptop out from her bag.
“How are we gonna access it, what’s her favourite food drink animal, stuffs like that?” Kaelyn asked.
They tried all they could for the laptop, they even used Jake name, they combined their nickname but nothing worked.
“Guys” Martha slowly called and they all looked at her.
“The person I’m seeing is a professional hacker. I can all him over and ask him to help us” She mumbled, looking unsure.
“You’re seeing someone new?” There’s surprise in Aime’s face.
“We’ll ask this question after Julia has been found, do call him” Jake replied.
Martha nodded. She put her phone in her ears and began calling the person she was seeing.
❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥
“Nine” Romeo counted but Julia was still not on the bed which pissed him off.
“You think I can’t $h00t? You think this gun is empty huh?” As he demanded, he shot the ceiling and it made Julia scream out in fear. The pieces of the ceiling broke and shattered on the floor.
“Ten!!” He yelled and pointed the gun at the woman on the chair, ready to pull the trigger.
“Don’t do it, I will get on the bed” Julia stopped in.
“Then get on it and don’t waste my time” He replied.
With shaky legs, Julia slowly walked to the bed.
“Take your P@?tî?? off” He ordered but Julia couldn’t bring herself to do it.
“Never mind I will just rip it off myself” Romeo dipped his gun in his pocket and walked to the bed.
He knelt on the bed and held Julia’s leg to spread them apart but she kicked him.
“?îtçh” He slapped her and punched her face before forcefully ripping her shirt off.
She was putting on lace bra. He smiled slowly and brought his hands to squeeze her breàst. Julia felt disgusted, she turned but he turned her back to him and punched her face again.
There was blood now and she was in so much tears. He squeezed her face and forcefully kissed her, pushing his tongue down her throat. Julia tried struggling but it’s no use. He left her lips and roughly bit her neck.
Suddenly a car collapsed on his head and he fell on the bed, groaning. Julia looked up to see the woman in wedding gown, her eyes widened when she saw it wasn’t Martha.
“Who are you?” She asked shock.
“No time, let’s get out of here first” The woman helped Julia up and they both struggled to run out of the room.
❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥
BRYAN’S APARTMENT ••
Someone knocked the door and Bryan went to get it. It was a young man who looked like he was in his late 20’s.
“Martha called me here. I’m Erin” He said.
Jake eyes widened.
“You’re seeing this dude? How old is he?” Jake studied him. The guy looked like he was in his middle 20’s. His 36 years old mom can’t be serious.
“Never knew your mom was into kids bro” Kelvin looked confused and so did everyone.
“You guys can ask me questions later, let’s save Julia” Martha said.
Few minutes later, Erin was sitting on the chair she going through Julia’s laptop.
“Can’t you be any more quick!!” Aime yelled.
“He’s trying his best” Martha glared at her.
“I’ve gotten in and I’ve hacked her text messages” Erin announced and everyone pushed their head to the laptop.
They saw the person that have been texting her who she blocked more than twenty times till they found the original text where the person dropped the address.
“I’ll call the police” Kaelyn pulled her phone out and excused herself.
❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥❥
Julia and the woman managed got to the last door but it was locked with key.
“What are we gonna do now? I don’t want to die” Julia cried.
The woman found a hairpin from her hair and forced the door to open. The pin worked on the laptop and they both stepped out.
“If anyone step out of this lips, you both die” He said, pointing his gun at them.
“Romeo just let us go please” Julia bagged.
“Over my dead body” He replied, moving closer to them still pointing the gun.
“If you want me then why bring an innocent woman?” Julia angrily asked.
Romeo replied by laughing for a while. “Innocent woman? Are you not gonna tell her the throat or you don’t want Julia to know that you’re her mother?” He asked and Julia eyes widened.
“What are you talking about? I already have a mother” She looked confused.
“Well now is not the best time to talk about it is it?” Romeo replied, still pointing his gun at him. “Go back inside” He ordered.
The woman was the first to move in but she immediately grabbed Romeo’s hand, holding it tight.
“Run Julia!!!!!” She yelled.
Julia stood, feeling overwhelmed. She can’t live her here.
“Run, I can’t hold him for too long” She shouted.
Julia nodded and ran outside. Romeo forcefully pushed the woman from him, her head meet the wall and she passed out then Romeo went out to find Julia.
She haven’t gone far and he was able to stop her by $h00ting his gun in the air. Julia froze and slowly turned to face him.
“It was supposed to be simple” He said, moving closer to her while pointing his gun at her. “I would just sleep with you and no one gets hurt but you decide to be a ?îtçh about it” He rolled his eyes.
Suddenly siren began sounding and before they knew it. Some police car stopped and officers came down, pointing their gun at Romeo.
“You called the cops. I thought I told you to come alone” He asked with widened eyes.
“Put your weapon down, your hands on your head” An officer ordered.
Romeo was still pointing his gun at Julia and Jake immediately ran towards them.
“I should have ki||ed you” Romeo muttered and pulled the trigger.
It all happened so fast, Jake was in front of her, hugging her tight when the shot happened. They both went to the floor and couple of gun shots were heard.
“Jake” Julia’s eyes were teary.
“I’m okay” He managed to say but blood fell from his mouth. He took some strand of her hair and arranged it to the back of her hair. “I’m sorry” He mumble before his body went weak. His head fell at the side of her neck and he passed out.
“Jake!!” Julia cried out.
