Chapter 423: 423 Tracking Her

Anya's eyes went to Alvin who sat there like a grim reaper from hell right after guessing the purpose behind the call. She answered the call and heard Paxton's hush voice. [Anya, could you assist me?]

Generally, they wouldn't ask if she could assist them. Since she was on leave and recently married, Paxton asked directly so that he could make different arrangements if she was busy or unavailable.

Anya knew Alvin would be worried. However, her colleagues wouldn't ask for assistance if there isn't a drastic change in their situation.

She breathed softly and put forward her time constraint, "I need an hour." She has to cuddle her son and husband to sleep.

[Roger.] Then the call ended.

Alvin had accepted her job but he didn't expect it would be tougher to let her go as soon as he perceived that she had some task.

He was confident in her but also worried. He wanted to go with her but she wouldn't allow it. He thought of sending Rob or Max in the shadows but they won't be able to keep up with Anya. Instead, they might drag her down.

He breathed out loudly when she silently stood by him, waiting for his reaction. He suddenly tugged her on the bed and pinned her underneath him. He glowered at her. Unlike how she had squeaked before, her expression or composition didn't even faze. This was Officer Owen who could face any shocking action without a flinch.

He clenched his teeth and warned her in a restrained voice, "If you get even a single scratch, forget about the job." And he was serious.

Anya's expression softened. Her cold fingers caressed his aloof face looking into his darkened eyes. She didn't know about Paxton's mission yet. So she can't promise him that.

"Let me put you guys to sleep. I will be back before dawn." Her voice trailed in the end when they heard gentle knocks on the door.

Alvin pulled her up. He was irked at her team. When she has to put in an act of resignation, why were they contacting Anya?

Her face was known all over the nation. If anybody identifies and leaks about her actions, wouldn't everyone know she was still working as a special officer?

Wouldn't that be dangerous in her mission?

What if her chief and Chief Justice were purposefully doing it?

Alvin gritted his teeth when his thoughts were running wild, out of his control. He won't be able to sleep in those questions so he stood up to go to the study room but Anya caught his hand.

"Alvin…" She whimpered. She wasn't complaining and getting angry at him because she could guess how difficult it would be for him. It made her feel selfish. But they couldn't keep having the same conversation again and again. Once her mission completes, she won't be leaving like this.

Zane pushed the door and stepped inside the room. He was in bear pajamas and smiled looking at her. "Momma…" He closed the door and jogged to the bed.

Anya could only let go of Alvin's hand and smile at Zane. She can't let Zane be worried. "My Baby Bear is here." She loved her Little Baby Bear who was growing up too fast.

Zane climbed on the bed and went into her arms, "My Momma Bear is cute." He was a gentleman.

Wrapped in her arms, Zane glanced at Alvin, expecting him to be grumpy for taking Anya but Alvin's attention wasn't on them.

Why does the Chipmunk Monster look angry?

He wondered if Anya didn't get pajamas for Alvin, "Momma, what about Chipmunk Monster? No Papa Bear?"

Anya wanted to say Alvin doesn't like those things but changed her words to a bit of fun, "Papa Bear is already so big. He is warm and cozy without these pajamas."

'Papa Bear!?' Those words were comical, yet oddly made Alvin feel pleasant and warm.

Anya noticed Alvin's expression softening a bit. He didn't look like he wanted to run from there and murder people. So she suggested mischievously, "Baby Bear, you should take advantage of your Papa Bear when you're still little."

In less than a year or two, even if she calls, Zane wouldn't like to cuddle or sleep on another's bed. So she hoped Zane could borrow his father's arms.

"Huh?" Zane didn't understand how he should take advantage of Alvin.

Anya made a puppy face at her husband who gave in and got on the bed. Anya shifted Zane to Alvin's left and she laid down on the right, pulling the duvet over them.

Chipmunk and Chipmunk monster: "..."

It wasn't an advantage. Both felt like a punishment at first.

Anya pursed her lips looking at the two stiffened humans, ready to spring out of the bed any second. Suppressing her smile, she wrapped her hand over Alvin and reached Zane to make him relax with her touch. "Good night, my Chipmunks."

Zane awkwardly wished her back. He slowly relaxed his head on Alvin's arm. He found his mother right. Chipmunk Monster was much warmer than the duvet.

Anya pulled Alvin's left arm to wrap around Zane who slowly snuggled to a comfortable position like a curious cat and placed his hand over Alvin's chest.

Alvin watched his little enemy smile at Anya as he slowly drifted to sleep in less than five minutes.

He had only cuddled Anya to sleep. She fills his arms whereas Zane was like a very delicate being next to him.

He unawarely whispered to the woman who was watching them all along, "He is so small." Zane wasn't even the length of his arm so astonishment was evident in Alvin's voice.

Anya wanted to ask, 'did you realize that now?' Anyway, she held her hands as if carrying an infant, "He was this tiny when I carried him for the first time." A rare tender smile appeared on her face as her eyes moistened recalling the first time.

Alvin looked at the woman hearing her emotional tone. He could cuddle her and put her to sleep. Then she won't be able to go, will she?

Pulling her into his arms, he rubbed her head, hoping she would sleep. He unthinkingly closed his eyes after some time and dozed off with two Bears in his arms.

….

Anya who got ready by ten to leave saw the message and furrowed instantly. It was an address to the business event where Krystle went with Linus.

She rushed to the bed to ask Alvin about the event but she gave up her thoughts when she looked at him sleeping peacefully with Zane.

If the situation was simple, Paxton wouldn't have handled it. Hence there were chances of commotion, holding hostages, killing, or similar serious situations. So Krystle and Linus might fall into trouble.

She wasn't sure about the situation at the venue. Taking over the call and explaining them might not be safe as anybody might be tracking her, for example, the Hanks. Alvin's number would be the same. Thus she has to leave her mobile in the mansion.

She didn't have time to use her laptop to send untraceable messages to Linus or Krystle.

So, [Go home now.] she dropped a message to both of them in a casual tone hoping they could understand.

However, she was aware Krystle and Linus knew her as a retired officer hence they wouldn't take her message seriously.

Her last choice was to reach the venue and ask her team to call or message those two before they take any action.
