229 Pieces of Puzzle
Veronica tries to control her temper. But she understands how Tony would feel. So she followed him to her grandfather's room and he shut the door in front of her face. She exhales and just waited outside as Tony discuss something with her grandfather.
Tony was frustrated. Tony was anxious. How can he not be anxious when Veronica would put herself in peril all over again. Calvin expected him but never expected him to come to him so soon.
"Grandpa, I want to help Veronica take over this organization."
"Okay." Calvin said without hesitation. He trusted Loren's son. Tony showed him his love to Veronica and how he was also ready to die just to save her. Though, Veronica didn't want him to get hurt, he would still do it all over again.
"You know where Francisco is." Tony stated.
"We can't capture him." Calvin said. "Trust me. Mondragon is still on the play. Let the cats play on the rats before they kill them."
Tony was surprised. So it was really Mondragon. Ezekiel. And something was bothering him from Calvin's words. Who else? Ezekiel has a grudge with Francisco and Sabrina but who else?
"You mentioned Mondragon." Tony wants to fill the puzzles but Calvin remain quiet. He knows something that they don't. Do Sabrina also know about this? Was it the reason why she block all of her traumatic memories together with her recent ones and went back to when it never hurt her?
"I did. I will set a meeting so you can meet them." He said. "I will rest now."
Tony nods as he strode outside where Veronica was waiting. It seemed like she didn't hear anything at all.
"So?" She asked him.
"You will not do any stupid things again." He told her a little annoyed.
"Why are you angry?" She asked.
"I am not angry! I am annoyed." He raises his voice. "I will give you a proper lecture." He pick her up like a sack and she squeal.
He took her to their room and he locks it. He almost throw her on the bed. Veronica exhales as she pushes away her hair from her face. Tony was pacing back and forth in front of her. She tilt her head, quizzical on what he's doing.
"What's up?" She asked.
"Your granddad just mentioned Mondragon." He said.
"Uh, what's wrong with that?" She asked.
"He mentioned Mondragon not Ezekiel Mondragon."
"Hmm." Veronica rubbed her chin.
"Ezekiel was the only one who has a grudge to Francisco. What if Anastasia is alive and she is the one playing them? Janine was bailed out of jail and Ezekiel didn't make a move to bring her back there. It wasn't Ezekiel's game, Veronica. What if Sabrina actually witness something when she went to the US?" Then Tony snapped his fingers.
"Gabriel told me before that, whenever Sabrina call in the house someone picks it up. Not Ezekiel and she heard a voice on the other line but she didn't say anything about it. She do breakdown after hearing that voice." Tony's voice get intense even more. Veronica catch it and understood it all. She got her own Sherlock here. "That would trigger Sabrina's trauma…" Tony mutter.
"Tony." Veronica calls. He look at her. "Come here." Tony did as he move closer and sat down at the edge of the bed. "Sherlock, that's a new sexy." She said seductively. Suddenly all of Tony's curiosity dies when she makes a move by caressing his chest from his back. Veronica kisses his ear and nibble his earlobe.
Tony become still, he wanted to stop her but he miss how she tease him. They can't have sex yet. Both of them are restraining themselves but Veronica is insisting now. He hold her hand and stop her.
"I thought you are going to punish me." She said seductively. He kisses her hand. Veronica stop her seduction and wrapped her arms around him. She kiss his cheeks. "I am well now, Tony-baby."
Tony smile. Tony-baby sound great. He lay down on the bed and she straddle him and lay on his chest. Tony hug her tightly. Those days and nights that she stayed in the laboratory away from him was torture but it was all worth it because now—he have her and he had saved her.
"Two more weeks, V." He mutter. "We have to wait for two more weeks."
"That's long…" she murmur. "I want you now."
"I know. I also want you so—badly." He reached her butt and squeeze it.
"We can do dry humping, oral sex or make out…" She suggested.
"Hmm." He thought for a while. It wasn't that bad.
"You know like the first time we got naked…" She grins at him. He reach her left hand where the rings are located. She kisses his nose. "Come on." She snuggle like a kitten. "I miss screwing like rabbits."
Tony laugh out loud. Veronica knows how to stir him up.
"V, you talk dirty. That's too sexy." He reach her butt and squeeze it more.
Tony took her to the bathroom to satisfy each other. She got tired so easily and ended up on bed where she slept off. He decreased the AC and cover her with the duvet. Tony reach his phone and tried to call Gabriel but he's not answering. Maybe he's too busy to even bother answering his calls.
So he texted him.
-Need to talk to you. ASAP. Not through call we need to meet.
Tony went to Veronica and reach her face. He bent down and kisses it. It wakes her up and she patted the space beside her.
"Come on, spoil me before you get busy on taking over Ivanov's business." Tony chuckle and did do as she asked. He hugged her tightly and kisses her ear. "So, grandpa already agreed?"
"I agreed to it. Your grandpa will set a meeting and he didn't want me to finish your father quickly… Mondragon needs something to play."
"Mondragon is Sabrina. Of course they have to play first. There's no fun without torture." She reach him down there. Tony's eyes widens and he glower at her. She smirk at him.
"Veronica, I—" she shush him and she kisses his lips. Tony wrapped his arms around her and let her have her own way.
