"So, what are you trying to point out? Na mas magaling talaga ako kaysa sa 'yo?" Napangisi ako. "Woah. Hindi ko inasahan na ganito ka kabilis aamin."
"Ang kayabangan mo ang hihila sa 'yo pababa, L."
"Yes, sir. I'll keep that in mind," pang-iinsulto ko pa sa kanya. I was about to turn my back on him when I remembered something. "Remember this too: your stupidity will lead your life to death and to the downfall of this organization."
Susuntukin niya na sana ulit ako nang maiwasan ko iyon. I was also going to punch him when Bea stopped me, the only girl in our team. She's our specialist and analyst.
"Ano ba? Hindi na kayo mga bata," sabi niya kaya napaayos na lang ulit ako ng tindig. "Imbes na magtulungan ay naghihilahan naman kayo pababa. Ang babaw niyo, alam niyo 'yon?"
"Oh, I'm scared, namby-pamby," I said, m

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POV Nakita ko ang paglapit ni Bamboo kay Argento. Normal lang silang nag-uusap na parang mga normal na tao. Pagkatapos ng ilang minuto ay lumapit si Uno kay Bamboo dala ang suitcase na may lamang pera. Binuksan iyon ng isa sa mga tauhan ni Argento at pinakita ang laman. I shifted on my position, feeling impatient and bored. Napahawak ako sa baba ko habang ang isang kamay ay nasa manibela. Naalerto ako nang lapitan ni Argento si Bamboo. Pinigilan sana siya ni Dos pero ganoon din ang ginawa ng isang tauhan ni Argento kay Dos. He whispered something to her before he attempted to kiss her neck. Mayamaya lang ay hinawakan si Bamboo ng mga tauhan niya at puwersahang ipinasok sa sasakyan. Uno and Dos are on the move. Jesus christ! I f*cking knew it! I was about to start the engine and drive towards them when our group deliver a blow. Nagpaulan sila ng mga bala sa p

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POVNapatitig ako sa maskarang hawak ko nang tuluyang mawala sa paningin ko ang sasakyan niya. It's such a loss for me. Natanggal at nakuha ko nga ang maskara niya pero hindi ko naman nakita ang mukha niya at nakuha ang pangalan niya. Damn it! She's indeed a guarded woman who knew better than to continue fighting and reveal her identity.Sinuri ko ang maskara. I stopped when I saw something embedded at the back of it on the edge."Deianeira..."I looked at the roadway again where she disappeared and smirked like I just hit the f*cking jackpot in lotto. She's not guarded enough for her real name, huh?Deianeira. I'm willing to take risks in order to find everything about you. I'm pretty sure we'll meet again in no time and when that happens, I'll never let go of you again.Agad akong sinalubong ng suntok pagkabalik ko sa head

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POV"We have a problem." She put the folders on my table then flattened her palms on it. "You have no longer a slot for the judge because all of the judges are the alliances of the one who planned the pitfall for the fighters. Planado na ang lahat, L."I smirked. "Then, we just need to kill that judge.""What? Are you insane?" pasigaw na bulong niya sa akin habang nanlalaki ang mga mata."Nah. Trust me. After we kill that man, it'll be easier for me to deceive the other judges."Honestly, there's no certainty to what came out to my mouth. Hindi ko man lang iyon pinag-isipan. Ang tanging nasa isip ko lang ay ang maging judge at iligtas ang babaeng iyon."No, L. Our job here is to protect–""How can we protect that fighter if I'm not going to be a judge?""Then, be a fighter inst

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV Wearing my favorite turtle neck sweater and black leather skirt paired with stiletto bootie, I confidently made my way to my office next to my bedroom. Binuksan ko ang pinto at bumungad sa akin si Anderson na nakade-kuwatro, puffing a smoke from his expensive cigar. "Glad to see that you're wearing clothes now." I eye him as I continue to walk towards my desk and swivel chair. "You know that I respect and value you so much." "Talaga lang ha? May natitira ka pa palang kahihiyan diyan sa katawan mo sa dinami-rami ng pagkakataon na nakita kitang hubo't-hubad at nangangabayo," sarkastikong sabi ko naman but then again, he just laughed at me. "Well, what do you expect? Why don't you just join my company with your man or be like me?" "Seriously, Anderson?" Raising my left eyebrow, I gave him a cold look.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVI parked my Ferrari outside of the formidable edifice with many storeys. I removed my aviator glasses and put my mask on. It's already quarter to nine in the morning kaya medyo tirik na ang araw. I'm not used to be seen in daylight with my other identity but I don't have a choice. I promised Finn last night that I need to talk to their Boss as soon as possible.Kinuha ko ang revolver sa dashboard at inilagay sa loob ng boots na gamit ko ngayon bago tuluyang lumabas ng sasakyan. I darted my gaze to the words written in front of the building.Akeldama Org., the infamous organization owned by the Draycot clan. Kung pagmamasdan mo ang gusaling ito ay para lang siyang isang normal na kompanya na may magandang pamamalakad at transaksiyon. But once you enter and get to know the heart of the company, you'll know the hidden dirty and illegal acts behind the beautiful facade of the buildin

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV"Someone's afraid of death, aren't they?"F*cking old dog! Kailangan niya ba talagang maging epal sa lahat ng bagay na sangkot ako? Ano ganyan niya ba suriin ang pagkatao ko?"Why would I when I'm already killing you a thousand times in my head?"He's always sabotaging me since I came to this organization. This is my chance and I wouldn't let him take it away from me again. Not this time. Kung puwede lang talagang patayin siya, bakit hindi? Well, he always gets on my nerves, but I also found comfort in his stupidity and mad face."But couldn't do it in person because of cowardice."I raised my left eyebrow. "Still couldn't get enough of my beating, huh? Why don't we take it to the next level to prove myself again for countless f*cking times?"Umiwas naman ng tingin sa akin si Finn habang inaayos a

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV"I like you."While waiting for the elevator, Brody leaned his back against the wall as he crossed his arms on his chest. Gumalaw ang mata ko para makita siya sa peripheral vision ko. He's smirking like an idiot while giving me a thorough look. Ibinalik ko na lang ulit sa pinto ng elevator ang tingin ko, showing no respect to him. Hindi ko man lang namalayan na nakasunod pala siya sa akin."Is that important?" walang gana ko namang tugon. Man, I'm not interested in you. Get f*cking lost already.He chortled. "Now, I'm starting to like you even more."Tumunog ang elevator kaya agad na akong pumasok sa loob, ignoring him. Sunod siyang pumasok habang nakangiti pa rin. I maintained my compusure and imagined that he's not here. Too bad, he can talk."Matagal ka na ba sa amin?"Nanatili akong tahimik, n

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV"Someone invited you in a fight."I sighed. "By whom?""One of the judges. Guess, you made an impact, huh? Well, that's my niece and I'm always proud in everything she does."Napataas ako ng kilay at ibinaba na lang ulit ang kamay."So?"He let out a laugh again. "Masyado ka talagang masungit, Allisa. Baka madali mong ikabagsak iyan. Careful, darling.""Oh, Anderson. It will never happen. So, just get straight to the point, you motherf*cker," kalmado pero may diin na sabi ko.This man has the tendency to talks in circles and I f*cking hate it. I'm too impatient to wait for his nonsense news especially when it comes to a fight. He's the one accepting calls for me and arranges an event for a fight as Sam."I told you to stop calling me that.

A Shroud of Secrecy To be Continued...
The quest for the truth and revealing the mysteries that have entwined all of our lives will go on indefinitely. No matter how hard we fight and how many lives are lost, nothing will change if the words we seek to end this brutal, bloody war come from the ones who are the root of everything. We, Deianeira Madigan and Blake Aeron Dalzell, would not be able to coexist if it weren't for our dark family histories. There will be no conflict between the two organizations if love didn’t prevail. Will the war ever stop if history repeats itself, or will it continue to be a never-ending cycle until the two organizations ultimately surrender? It will be a long and tiring series of events. Until then, see you on book 2, as diverse stories from the past come back to haunt us all, and provide us the answers we've been waiting for since the beginning of everything. We are not yet in the thick of the conflict, and we are far from the end; can you still witness the beginning of this long-overdue fi

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POV"It's been three f*cking days, Ark!" Napahilamos ako sa mukha't marahas na pinasadahan ng kamay ang buhok ko. I can also feel my eyes stinging and tears welling up. "What the hell are we waiting for? Hindi natin ito madadaan sa santong dasalan! F*ck! This is a bloodbath! Actions are far more important than words and planning!""Naririnig mo ba ang sarili mo, L?" Ark walked near me. "Hindi tayo basta-basta aaksiyon kung walang plano.""Goddamn it, Ark. Puro na lang pagpaplano ang laman ng utak mo tapos ano? It always backfires to us!""Akeldama is not an easy enemy–""Yeah?" I locked my gaze on his vexing eyes. "What can you say about Deianeira's actions towards them? Duwag ka lang."Ark clenched his jaw. "Take back what you just said, L.""What? Does it hurt your ego? Tss. Meron ka ba 'non sa s

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVMy heart is pounding. I wasn't expecting to see him once I regained consciousness. I assumed I'd been captured by the Akeldama. What happened?Napatitig ako sa kanya. He's holding my hand while he's asleep. F*ck, why does he have to do this? Pakiramdam ko unti-unti na namang nagigiba ang pader na binuo ko sa loob ng ilang linggo. Just seeing him is enough to make my entire life crumble. That's something I didn't expect, but I guess people do change if someone or something disrupts your equilibrium.I clenched my fists and shut my eyes tight. I need to get a grip on myself. He and his family are atfault. I know I shouldn't blame him for what occurred between us in the past, but f*ck, he came from that family, the enemy of our family. It was made worse by the fact that he kept his true identity secret from me. I can't afford to spend the rest of my life with a monster w

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POV"We found her."Mabilis akong napaapak sa brake na nanlalaki ang mga mata."I’ll be there." I ended the call and started the engine again. Para akong nakipagkarerahan sa puso ko habang ang utak ko ay kung saan-saan na lumilipad.Nang makarating sa headquarters ay agad kong tinakbo ang hallway papunta sa elevator. I feel like the time inside the elevator is so long that it suffocates me. F*ck, kailan pa naging ganito kabagal ang elevator? Kung kailan nagmamadali ay pinapabagal naman ng ibang bagay, lalo na ng oras.I reached for the handle of our office's glass door and noticed my team members. My gaze was drawn to Ark right away. When I spotted him, I swiftly approached him, without moving my gaze away from him."Speak." Ark turned around with a surprised expression on his face. Bahagya siyang napatitig sa akin. Ka

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POVNothing but the thundering thumps of my heart could be heard as I walked down the hospital's lengthy corridor. I'm still debating if what I heard from Elon is true or if they're simply making a fool of me, because if they are, I will f*cking kill them for making me feel this sh*t.Kausap ko palang si Bamboo bago kami umalis ng Maldives tapos pag-uwi namin dito ay biglang ganito? What the f*ck is going on? Is this a dream? This doesn't sound right in the least. Bamboo is not dead. It isn't possible. Bamboo, knowing her, will never keep every detail of our current situation hidden from me."Nilusob tayo ng Akeldama. I thought we'd be prepared if it happened... but no." Elon’s body shivered. "Akala namin ay tatakutin lang nila kami at ang organisasyon pero hindi, eh. They've gone beyond our boundaries. Ang ilan sa atin ay sugatan pero si Bea... She's the only one... who didn't ma

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVNabasag agad ang isang baso na may lamang alak nang malakas ko itong itinapon sa ulo ng pangit na ugok. I shifted my gaze to the side, flattened my left hand on the table, and kicked him in the chest. Sinundan ko ng tingin ang pinagtumbahan niya. Knock out.Lumiko agad ang mga mata ko nang makita ko sa peripheral vision ko ang paparating na suntok. I swiftly tilted my head to avoid it and gave him an elbow strike. Pinulupot ko ang isa kong paa sa may likod niya’t pinatong naman ang isa bilang suporta para masipa siya. Tumalsik ako pero mas malakas ‘yong impact sa kanya. Hindi pa ako nakuntento ay nilapitan ko ulit siya, pinaharap siya sa akin at naupo ako sa may dibdib niya. With a poker face, I clenched my right hand with spiked brass knuckles and directly punched him on the face. Agad bumulwak ang dugo nang alisin ko na ang brass knuckles. Bahagya pa akong napapikit nang matalsikan ako

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVMy mother had been raped and wanted to abort me. Is that to say... I'm a mistake? She doesn't want to be with me from the start? Napilitan lang ba siya dahil sa ama ko na umako ng responsibilidad?And... it was because of a friend of my father's.So, my father isn't my biological father? I was born as a result of rape rather than their love?What the f*cking hell?!Dala ng pagkataranta ay muntikan pang masira ang tape nang mapagdesisyunan ko ulit na panoorin ito. My hands were shaking and my heartbeat’s getting faster as the video goes on. Naghintay akong matapos ang buong video, hoping that they will tell the name of the rapist, but they didn’t.I repeated the video numerous times with tears in my eyes, afraid to accept the truth.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVIt’s Anderson’s hand.Kilalang-kilala ko ang hugis ng kamay ni Anderson at ang mga singsing na sinusuot niya. That hand inside the glass vase with water that became bloody red because of the blood is clearly Anderson’s. Hindi ako puwedeng magkamali o mamalik-mata lang. Gayunpaman, gusto kong paniwalaan ang isang ilusyon na kamay lang iyon ng isa sa mga kalaban na lumusob dito.F*ck. What did they do to him? What happened?Bigla akong napahawak sa ulo ko nang biglang bumalik sa alaala ko ang nangyari sa foster parents ko. They snipped their tongue. They made them suffer before taking their lives.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV"Allisa! Good god, I’ve been waiting for your call! Are you okay? Where are you?"Napasapo ako sa sentido ko at napabuntong-hininga. Sa halip na matuwa ako sa pag-aalala niya ay mas nainis pa ako. Sanay na ako sa ka-oahan niya pero nakakainis pa rin talaga minsan lalo na’t kung wala ka rin sa mood para intindihin ang mga bagay. F*ck. I’ve been on the edge because of that guy, but I can’t bring myself to show it to anyone."I’m fine, Anderson. We’re in Maldives—""What?!"I closed my eyes tightly."But we’re going home tomorrow.""May nangyari ba?"Mangha ako sa pagiging alerto ni Anderson. He really knows the timing if there’s something wrong with me. O sadyang alam niya lang talaga na lapitin ako ng gulo.
