The Traps of Black Swan

Dylan nodded in response when the man who was pretending to be a worker of the resort disclosed the location of the couple. It was obvious the couple shifted to a better and safer place but their location was still tracked as it wasn't any city or Mocon. The resources on the island were too little to escape the eyes easily.

Leon was impressed how his newly appointed man had kept a close eye on the activities of Aaron and Aarvi. However, he didn't show it on his face. He sounded doubtful when he asked, "Why didn't you send me a picture of them changing the villa?"

The young man took his mobile out and showed Leon a dark picture where they couldn't spot anything, "They relocated in the dark. I was able to track them through my naked eye but the camera wasn't able to capture it as there was no light." The camera light flash would alert them.

Convincing.

Leon gave a nod of approval and saw the man beam for it. 'Dimwitted,' he thought. Leon wasn't stupid to think just that information could bring down the couple. Aaron went to such great lengths for permission to have his own private army in the name of Rivas Securities. The double security, the young man spoke of wouldn't just be double, the sneaky Aaron would have his main people in dark to dismember the whole group that will attack them.

Aarvi might not be so powerful like them, but her sharp and quick-wittedness was her treasure to handle any situation. Leon knew she wasn't like before, she wasn't like other women to panic. The more problems and attacks directed at her, she will become so calm that she will have her solution in no time.

With Aarvi being brain and Aaron being strength, Leon knew winning on the powerful couple by attacking them head-on was nothing but asking for death.

However, Leon wanted to take this chance by sending Dylan. He wanted to make sure Dylan hadn't joined his hands with Aarvi. Returning alive or dead, he wanted Dylan to attack them.

If Dylan had joined his hand with Aarvi, he would manage to survive and return with wounds while others would be dead. If Dylan hadn't joined his hand with her, Leon knew he was risking the most capable accomplice of his. Nonetheless, he wasn't ready to accept that he would fall weak without Dylan. He believed he could handle everything without Dylan.

Dylan followed his job promptly under the watchful eyes of Leon. Any fool could understand Leon was doubting Dylan. No, the right words were, Leon was getting rid of Dylan to avoid the chances of Dylan standing against him.

Overall, Leon was scared Aarvi could know all his secrets through Dylan. But in reality, Aarvi wanted no information about Leon from Dylan. The latter first time found Leon's actions ludicrous.

"Water attack would have been easier but the villa is on the land. So President Rivas's men won't just patrol the villa but also hide in the dark to improve their defenses. What are the firearms and defense items we have here?"

Dylan glanced at the men Leon had brought. None were sure about the total firearms hence they looked at each other, "I have a handgun."

"I have this."

Likewise, each one blurted out showing their firearms, and knives they had. Dylan couldn't believe Leon still hung around the local thugs when Aaron had top-notch well-trained bodyguards.

Dylan wasn't sure how everything was going to end up as they were obviously weak with ten members. He divided the group into four and he chose the main gate, a very dangerous place as he explained their plan to distract the men and enter the villa.

Once everything was done, Dylan turned to Leon, "Brother Leon, if my name leaks, just claim that you had no idea. The island security laws are very strict. Unlike our country."

Leon merely glanced at Dylan. He found no difference in Dylan so far. Dylan behaved the same like he always did. Leon took a few seconds and nodded without changing his purpose.

Leon and the man in resort uniform were in the villa when the rest went out to carry forward the plan. Leon waited till they left before fishing his mobile out and dialing a number.

The call was soon answered as the other end was waiting for it, "Keep an eye on Dylan. If you find him suspicious, shoot him to death."

Leon heard the response before he hung up the call. He had asked his left-hand man to be outside, now Dylan had no mobile, the men with him were unknown to Dylan so Leon will see the true face of Dylan, even if the latter was a coward.

It was just a matter of a few minutes, Leon closed his eyes, leaning comfortably on the couch, signaling the other man to get him drinks.

The man ran out to the mini parlor and asked, "President Harmon, Wine or whiskey?" The excitement in the tone was obvious while dreaming he could be a part of Leon's team and earn more money, as Aaron and Aarvi were just running away to protect themselves.

Leon frowned hearing the cheerful voice that was in contrast to his mood. He spat a word without opening his eyes, "Whiskey."

Leon started sipping the whiskey while waiting for the call.

At the other end,

Dylan sat on the tree, using a binocular. The lights were dim, men were marching around the villa and on the terrace.

Then he shifted his focus to the trees that were closer to the villa. He spotted a man sitting on the tree, "There is a man on a tree at 60 degrees to the east of the villa." He instructed the man who was waiting for him.

"60 what?"

Dylan: "..."

Could he just stomp the man to the ground? No, he wanted to ask Leon if he had any plans to attack Aarvi and Aaron, or was it just to sacrifice him? Dylan strongly felt the latter.

"There is a man on a tree to the right of the villa," Dylan said word for a word, sounding slightly annoyed.

The other man heard him and informed the team who were on the right of the villa. They were instructed to wait for the orders to shoot as killing one by one would alert others.

Similarly, Dylan successfully located six men who were hiding on the trees in the darkness. He changed his location and spotted two more who were his target.

The man next to him waited for Dylan and uttered when Dylan pointed his handgun and gave him a nod. "Now."

'Thud.'

The silencer of the handguns avoided the sound of bullet shots and Dylan saw the man on the tree fall to the ground. He quickly shot another man without a pause and the other man fell to the ground.

'Thud.'

Similarly, he heard the falling sounds to the ground. Dylan wasn't sure how many bullets others might have used but was surprised to hear the bodies fall to the ground without any delay.

Thus, the sound alerted the men who were inside the fence and they ran out to check on them. The men who were on the terrace reached the corners, pointing their firearm out, looking for any trespassers.

Taking the chance where there was a blind spot, others jumped inside the premises to attack the couple inside.
