"I could say the same," D'Angelo answered with a scoff, tightening his grasp on her as he heard one guard shout out - only for it to be silenced mid yell. There was no noise from another which meant one thing only - the two had to be down, with no security in front of him, he was left to defend himself. Not a position that he was used to any longer, he was a man of importance that was regarded well enough that this should have never happened. et, it had.
"It's a shame that you're going to have to die tonight because you thought your friends could save you," he whispered into her ear, letting his lips linger a moment too long as he nipped at the skin. "Hopefully you enjoy your last precious moments on this Earth."
Alessandro faced the door, panting as he looked down to his hands. The same hands that had learned to kill with one intention, ridding the world of people that thought they could do no wrong, that thought everyone else was beneath them. That thought they could go and prey upon someone because it should have been easy and perhaps it was at the time but things had a way of coming around full circle. Just as they had now, they would again.
Knocking at the door, Alessandro let out a low whistle. "Sweetheart, please. I mean you no harm. Simply let me in and we can sort our troubles out. It'll be over in no time, I promise it'll be quick. Easy."
D'Angelo sneered at the door as if Ales could see him, ever ounce of his training begging to be let free. The moment the door opened, he would slit the girl's throat, buy him just enough time to close in on Alessandro. What he wasn't counting on was the assassin leaping back down to the ground. When the door didn't open after several long breaths, D'Angelo relaxed ever so slightly. "Seems your friend wasn't all that keen on an attempt to save your life. Why do you think that is?"
Ales' voice sounded from behind them, "wrong."
The word was uttered as Alessandro stepped up behind D'Angelo, a blade shoved through the bed of his skull at the same time his free hand lashed out to knock the Templar's hand away from Eva's neck. If it had remained in place, D'Angelo's death would not have meant a thing, the movement of falling backward would have pressed the knife into Eva's skin with or without a heartbeat behind it.
Alessandro stepped away, rather unceremoniously letting D'Angelo's body drop to the ground before he was in front of Eva in an instinct, working to undo the rope that tied her to the chair. "We need to move," his voice was harsh, demanding as he turned his back to her. "Wrap your arms around my shoulders, fix your ankles together at my waist." Desperation began to leak into his voice at that point, "please."
