Moira as a watchman on Mondragon's Company building make sure that her snipers are ready to shoot anytime. When Andromeda said that Ellen is in danger everyone assembles, and she positioned ready to fire anyone.
But what she didn't expect are shadows lingering around the snipers. One of them had been cut on the throat while fighting in combat they are fast then she expected and the other one is still fighting with the guy.
She looked behind her and she made sure that no one would do the same to her. She pressed her earpiece.
"Dragon, one sniper is down, the other is waltzing. I think he already spotted this to happen. Wow, this guy is surely a great criminal mastermind." She muttered.
She didn't wait for a response, but she fired her gun to shoot the man in a black suit right into the head. She exhales and shot another after another.
It seemed that their subject is already on the run. Moira followed the man that Andromeda seemed to let go? But why? It makes her more quizzical. She pressed on her
earpiece.
"Dragon, why?" she asked.

Andromeda moved closer to Nicholas and punched him right into the stomach hard. The man clutched his stomach for a little while, but he looked so happy with the punch she gave. She also nudged him on his balls, and he fell on the ground.
"Fox, tell Olie to take Ellen away from the City." She told Fox.
Fox kept his own gun pointing to the man and then he opened wide the door to Ellen's room and told Andel to take her out. Ellen muttered something and Andel gather whatever she things she needed. He also grabbed a jacket and cover it to her. She still struggled from the pain on her stomach and she is slowly losing consciousness but Andel kept talking to her. Fox looked at the man kneeling in front of Andromeda and watched her hit the guy on the face. She then turned around and sat on the chair. Fox keep the gun pointed to Nicholas.
Andy massaged her nape and then strode to the couch. She crossed her legs and stare at Nicholas. Nicholas wanted to crawl to her and kissed her foot. But he restrained himself and looked at her like he's going to eat her alive.
"Andromeda," Nicholas sat up. "I promise that nothing bad will happen to anyone. Just be with me."
Andromeda started laughing until her stomach hurts. Then she wiped the tear at the side of her eyes.
"Ohh, this is so funny." She laughed. Nicholas tried to reach her like she's a diamond or an oasis in the desert. But she kicked the man. "You know what, Nicholas? Zachary is my King. No one can ever have me but him. Besides, I already rejected you."
Nicholas's face darkens and he wasn't stupid enough to attack her. But he already had plans to get her. He stood and exhales. He stared at her for a while then he left the room. Andromeda let the man as she looked at the glass window and one of the snipers is down and at the same time Moira reported it to her.
Andromeda let the Nicholas go and Fox put the gun down.
"Why?" Fox asked her. Andy remained quiet and then he called her people and told them to retreat.
"Do not question me," Andromeda told and left.
Fox is still puzzled as he watched her leave the penthouse. He went back to Ellen's room and took the gun after wrapping it on the towel since it will serve as a piece of evidence. He left the room after locking it and went back to the penthouse to secure the evidence.
He exhales and puts his gun safely on the case.
"Why, Dragon? Why?" He is asking the same question on why Andromeda let him go. Is this something more? What does she know? What is she really planning?
***
Andromeda told Moira to leave the rooftop of the building and secured everything. She didn't answer every question that they asked as she went to her hotel and prepare the warm water of the jacuzzi for herself. She ignored every call of her team and she leaned as she looked up at the ceiling and exhales.
She saw more than what she saw when he raped Ellen. She wanted to gather more, and she wanted to know who is helping him. How can she take Seth's Identity so easily and who else is involved with him? He's lunatic.
She suddenly laughed when she thought of things on how to get rid of him. She shook her head. There's something more with this man. How can he just hire an assassin? How can he cover up so quickly? This is something that she should investigate.
***
Andel brought her to the emergency room for them to checked if she got broken ribs or something but Ellen insisted to leave and told him that she's fine. It just hurt a little. He would insist for her to have a whole body x-ray or CT-scan but she insisted more on leaving.
So, he took her back to his car, fixed her clothes and her out of the city. He buys enough foods and groceries and things she needed before they left the city. It only took him an hour to gather all of it.
"Where are we going?" She asked in a honeyed voice.
He parked the car on the corner of the road and then helped her to the backseat on the inflatable bed that he settled for her. He kissed her forehead.
"We are going somewhere you would love."
Her eyes dilated in excitement and hugged him. But Andel pinned her down and cover the blanket over her shoulder. He took the electronic pads and put it on her stomach so she could cuddle it.
"We are going to make love in a romantic place?"
Andel stopped and looked at her. She nearly got raped and she's been hit on the weak spot of the body. Ellen is soft and she's not like Andromeda and Moira that can recover quickly with a single hit. He patted her head and kissed her lips.
"You deserve beautiful places my El."
Andel drove carefully with low music and he kept glancing at her. He felt so bad for not protecting her well. His phone rung and he lowered the radio and answered it.
"Andel,"
"Yeah? Baby Moir?"
"Why did Andromeda let that bastard go?" She asked. Andel gripped on the steering wheel. He didn't know this. He drove slowly so he would control it and not wake up Ellen if he learned something that Andy is doing.
"What?" He asked in a low voice and took the ear pods and put it on. "What do you mean she let her go?"
"Andy, let the man escaped. He escaped casually and confident. What is she thinking?"
Andel chuckled.
"She's starting to think like Sabrina." He shook his head. "Tsk. Sabrina's mind has a big influence. I can't even read her. Now, I am afraid that I may not also read Andromeda's mind and on how she plans things."
"Yeah. Me too. But it's a good thing."
"Or not? Tsk. These two are surely best friends. I might've also called them twins. You see, they are matched together. Andy is great at everything physically while Sabrina is great at everything mentally."
"Well, it's in our blood. Where are you now?" Moira asked. Andel glanced at Ellen at the backseat.
"I am taking Ellen away from the city."
"Okay. But what about your work with Lawson?"
"It's the weekend. My phone will be unable to reach in a few hours. Also, I must take care of my girl. She needs me."
"Okay. Got it. And I'll be just somewhere this weekend."
After the call, he increased the speed of the car so they would get there early and since it's on the freeway, there are not many cars on the road.
