Inunahan niya ako sa paglalakad kaya napabuntong-hininga na lang ako. Himala, hindi na siya nangulit pa. I just shrugged it off and followed his path. Balak ko naman talaga na puntahan ang mga ganoong lugar. Lulong ako sa mga nakaraan kaya gustong-gusto ko ang mga bagay at lugar na itinayo at namuhay noon. It's so beautiful yet mysterious and fearsome for me.
"It's quarter to one. Let's eat our lunch first. There's a lot of good restaurants here," mungkahi niya habang nakatingin sa wrist watch niya.
Dalawang lugar palang ang napupuntahan namin at hindi namin namalayan ang oras. Hinayaan lang namin ang mga sarili namin na malunod sa mangha ng ganda ng lugar without talking to each other. That's what you call a peace of mind with a calm surrounding. Hindi ko rin naramdaman ang gutom.
"Sure."
Naglakad na ulit kami palabas ng Diocesan Museum.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVAfter taking a quick shower, I put on my disguise, every sick f*cking fight. The usual high ponytail for my long wavy hair, hiding my bangs properly this time to not easily be espy, brown contact lens to hide the true hue of my eyes, which is somewhat blue, and a freaking mask for my bare face. As for the clothes, I wore a ripped high waisted jeans, tight shirt with long sleeves, leather jacket and heeled boots, temporarily, until I arrive in arena.I stood still, maintaining my look on the huge mirror. I smirked, approving for my look for tonight. Damn! I can't help but to praise myself for having a fucking taste in fashion and styles. Ano pa bang kulang at wala sa 'yo, Sam? Or should I say Deianeira Madigan?Nang matapos na ay kinuha ko na ang duffel bag ko kung saan nakalagay ang mga kakailanganin ko sa laban. I also brought my gun and sharp knife with me, if it happens to be

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVNapabuntong-hininga ako ng malalim pagkapasok sa oktagon. I saw my opponent standing at the center together with the referee and some corner men. She gave me a thorough look so I did the same to her. For a woman like her, masyado siyang ma-muscle. If it wasn't for her big breasts, I wouldn't recognize her as a woman. Well, hindi na ito kataka-taka. But my body is nothing compared to her and to the other fighters. I mean, it's so slender to the point that I look like a model than a boxer. Funny, I know. But considering my strength, I can manage to pin them down even with this small body of mine because like what I said, I've been trained since I was young.Hindi ko alam kung paano ba ako napasok ni Anderson dito knowing na may sinusunod na weight class at rules ang MMA.Lumapit sa akin ang referee para bumulong.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVF*ck! It's Levi!That's what I think."What the f*ck is happening?" I shouted because I'm dying to know the reason behind this fucking sudden occurrence."Now!" he said offhand to dodge the question.Mabilis akong gumulong palabas sa ilalim ng oktagon. Agad akong naupo at tatakbo na sana nang matamaan na naman ako ng bala sa may binti ko."F*ck!" malutong na mura ko.Tumingin ako sa direksiyon na pinagmulan 'non at nakita ang isang snipe rifle na nakalabas sa isang upuan sa pinakataas."Found you." Napangisi ako nang makita ang taong nagtatago sa likod ng baril at upuan. Nanliit ang mga mata ko para titigan ang galaw ng taong iyon.I pointed the gun at his direction and immediately pulled the trigger. It's head shot. Damn you, f*cker.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVIbinalik ko na lang ang atensyon ko sa kalaban pero hindi na sila nakasunod pa. I put back the guns at the back of his pants and rested my head on his shoulder. I sighed and closed my eyes. What a f*cking situation.Nang tumigil na ang motor ay lumayo na ako sa kanya. Una siyang umalis sa pagkakaangkas sa motor para alalayan ako. I didn't accept his hand, though."Whose house is this?" I asked while looking at the small house."Mine."Nabaling ang tingin ko sa kanya nang maglakad siya palapit sa pinto. Nakita ko na ang susi ng bahay ay kasama sa susi ng motor. He welcomed me so I just made my way inside."Make yourself comfortable," he said before leaving me in the living room.I scanned the whole place while removing the coat. Naupo agad ako sa sofa. Inayos ko ang buhok ko para alisin ang mga nye

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVHe put me down on the soft bed. Nangalay ako sa pagtingala para lang makasabay sa halik niya kaya kumalas ako at lumayo sa kanya. Agad naman siyang nakasunod kaya pareho na kaming nasa kama ngayon.He opened my legs wide as his left hand held my waist to have a better access on my body. Ang kaliwa niya namang kamay ay humawak sa leeg ko para siilin ako ng halik. Bumaba iyon hanggang sa may sports bra ko. Agad kong narinig ang pagkapunit niyon. In just a swift move, he managed to remove my bra and threw it somewhere, revealing my healthy breasts. I opened my eyes to see his reaction but he's still busy kissing me so hard.A groan escaped from my lips instead of a moan when he cupped hard one of my breasts. Bilang pambawi ay kinagat ko naman ang dila niyang nakapasok na sa akin.I heard him chuckle. "Silly lady."I bit my bottom lip to prev

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POVI was born as a callous child from the crime family of Dalzell. My great grandfather established a legal crime named after him, the LVDCoS or Laius Vemados Dalzell Crime of Solace, which became well known across La Vezque City and in some other countries. With three essential core values: Life, Vainglory, and Die-hard, the goal of which is to create pride out of nothing, my family became famous, but with the purest motives of the two organizations, all the secret stench of our family came out. Dirt after dirt, secrecy after secrecy, my family became the worst nemesis of the two organizations–The KH and Akeldama–and the people."H-Help... Help me..."My face remained stoic as I watched the naked woman begged for me, looking at me through the narrow gap of an open door. She's lying on the cold metal table, her hands and feet chained. I can see blood keeps on spurt

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POV"A lack of empathy and guilt, a superficial influence, glibness, deceit, and callousness are all symptoms of psychopathy. The origins of the disease are either hereditary or unknown."I justsatthere staring at the psychiatric doctor in front of me. Psychopathy is a harsh, profound word for a seven-year-old like me. It was familiar to me, and its meaning just clarified things for me. Ngayon naiintindihan ko na kung bakit kakaiba ang ugaling meron ako kumpara sa mga normal na batang kagaya ko. Nilalayuan din ako ng mga ito, lalo na't isa akong Dalzell pero hindi iyon ganoon ka-big deal sa akin dahil hindi ko naman kailangan ng panibagong tao sa buhay ko. My family is already enough."Oh, my God," my mom beside me gasped as she held back her tears from falling. "Is... Is there a cure for it? What should we do, Doc? What should I do? How can we treat him? Masyado pa siyang b

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POVFor a year, my life has been like that. Gumuho na ang reputasyon ng pamilya namin. Unti-unti ring nagsialisan ang mga tauhan namin. No one stayed by my side even though I’m just a nine-year-old child. No one dared to stop me from doing what he wants, turning me into a monster.Until one day, the cops, investigators and detectives entered the mansion where I was living. I didn't even flinch from where I’m standing. Nanatili lang akong tahimik, inoobserbahan sila habang pinapalibutan nila ako."Identify the victims. Send medics for those who are still alive," a detective said. He signalled his fellow men to put down their weapon. "He's just a kid." Because of that, a flying dagger was sent to him right into his heart, and they were too late to realize 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

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?

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.
