Success didn't come easily for him. He had to scratch and claw his way to the top. That means killing hundreds of people, acquiring the greatest talents in the underground world. He made his fortune from being a professional assassin, until he had enough money to start his own group.
He paved his way with blood, and he vowed not to let anyone to throw him in the ground ever again. Everything that he's been through made his heart as cold as the winter, as hard as stone, and as ruthless as a viper. He was even named as the black mamba of the underground world, and it all happened at a very young age.
"Master, what do you want to do with the Maxfords?"
"Leave them be. I have so many plans for them."
"Yes, Master."
-End of Flashback-
Oh, yes. He had so many plans for them. He vowed to make the Maxfords lives a living hell. And, he was hell-bent on fulfilling those plans.

Violet's POV -Flashback- It was a nice morning, when I noticed this light reflection coming from the garden of the vacation house. I acted as if I didn't see it so I can come up with a plan. Our men can't know about whoever is it that is watching us. If our men would realize what I know, they would be on high alert. "Gilbert, what do we have for breakfast?" Gilbert looked at me like he knows something. I've always known that Gilbert was the traitor, but Franklin wouldn't listen to me. He was so keen on believing that Gilbert was one of his loyal men. "Chelsey cooked some fried rice and bacon." He responded. On my way to the kitchen, I saw a glimpse of a man hiding in the bushes. I knew we were being watched, but I didn't realize that they were this many. The the moment I saw one of them, I was able to figure out where the others are. They are not here to watch us, they're here to kill us. Before I got the chance to tell our men about t

Patricia's POV-Flashback-Felix never told me where we were going until we're at his private airport in Paris. When he said that he's taking to Catalonia, Spain, I had no idea that he will take to my mother's family. I have never met any relatives on my mother's side. Me and my always thought that mom was an only child and that she has no other family left.But, when arrived at Castillo de Zaragoza, that is when I realized that my mother came from not only a huge family, but also powerful, and very wealthy. Another surprising thing is that they know about me, even though I had no idea that they exist.

There's always the question of how two people meet and fall in love. Some people says it's science; chemistry to be exact. The increase of oxytocin in the body, along with other chemicals, that makes a person feels in love. The others, the more romantic ones, will argue that love is far complicated than what science claims. Those hopeless romantics says that love between two people is caused by fate. Two souls fated to meet long before they were even born.No one can actually explain how love between two complete strangers began. One thing for sure is that once you fall in love, there's no stopping it. It has been proven from time to time that love will definitely conquers all. Many have killed for love. Sometimes, love will bring out the worst in people, sometimes it will bring out the best."Santiago, we have the gang in downtown New York. They've agreed to work for us."

Early in the morning, one of Gonzalo's servants knock on their bedroom door. There was a delivery dropped off at the gate addressed to Gonzalo's name. It was a sealed long wooden box, only larger than a coffin by one or two inches. Nobody touched it yet, because they were all waiting for the two bosses to come down. A putrid smell is coming out from the box, and all of them are too familiar in such smell. The moment Gonzalo and Patricia came down to the living room, they immediately gave the order to open the wooden box. And, no matter how strong their stomachs are, seeing what was the content of the box rattled them. "Oh, God! That's Benson." One of their men exclaimed. "I'm going to skin those bastard alive!" Another one yelled out of anger. "Calm down, boys. This is a good thing. He is running on blind rage, and his tripping. A rabid animal is easier to hunt because they don't have strategy anymore. They are working on rage." "Does that mea
