"Are you okay, L?"
I immediately darted my gaze to Bamboo. Binigyan ko siya ng mabilis na tango. Holding a clean cloth, I continued wiping off the blood from my head and face.
"Anyway, I believe everything is fine for the time being. Mr. Langley, congratulations on apprehending Brody Draycot." With a goofy grin on her lips, she gave me two thumbs up. "Pero parang ang bilis ng mga pangyayari. Parang may mali. Ano sa tingin mo?" Napaisip siya at napamasid sa paligid.
We're outside of the venue. Maingay at abala ang mga tao. Cars from the cops, investigators, detectives and paramedics can be seen on the road. Karamihan sa tauhan ni Brody at ng Congressman ay namatay. Bilang lang ang mga buhay at sugatan.
"What's up, bud? Buti hindi ka gaanong napuruhan," si Arum nang bigyan ako ng tapik sa balikat.
"L!"

Ang daming mali, hindi lang nila nakikita dahil mas pinipili nilang magbulagbulagan at magbingibingihan.I'm here as a f*cking witness, not as a suspect. I should give a statement, but it seems like I'm being interrogated instead. Oh, f*ck this hell.

Occupation, heir of L.V.D Mafia, owner of L&D Holdings and an agent in The KH. Father, Luigi Vortimer Dalzell. Mother, Neomenia Langley-Dalzell. Siblings, none.I placed the folder with Aeron's basic information back on the table, sluggishly and stoically closing it. I pondered it carefully as I leaned back in my swivel chair in my mansion's office."Kulang 'to." I clicked my tongue before looking at Anderson, who was also examining something on his papers."Please read it again, my niece.I know it's simply the basics, but you can find something useful in it. Alam mo namang hindi ako nagdadala ng mga simpleng impormasyon lang."Kinuha ko ulit 'yong folder at binuksan. Binasa ko ulit 'yong

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVIt's been ten years since I last saw our old mansion. Hindi ko alam kung ano ba dapat ang maramdaman ko. Wala namang mawawala sa akin kapag sinubok ko ulit na puntahan iyon — kapag gustuhin ko ulit na alalahanin sila.I will go through the same grief, pain, fear and loneliness again. For a few hours, I will become weak and vulnerable. I will become Deianeira Madigan again.I stopped the engine in front of the huge gate. Lumabas ako sa sasakyan at pinagmasdan ang gate na kinakalawang na at tinutubuan nang mga halaman. Kahit ang sementong pader na nakapalibot sa bahay ay sira-sira na.Umabante ako't napatigil. The gates' locks were already broken. I felt the chill of the metal when I touched it to open the gate, along with the air. Nang biglang umihip ng malakas ang hangin ay naramdaman ko ang sandaling pag-indayog ng mahabang buhok ko. Bumuntong-hininga

Sinuri niya ang sugat niya sa kamay at agad napamura nang makita iyon.I made a face. Tumayo ako't agad naramdaman ang sakit ng katawan dahil sa mga natamo ko ring sugat."You were the one who began the fight." Blaming him is the only way for me to feel better about myself.He gave mea quiet chuckle. "So it's now my fault, my lady? I entered this house with no malice, since, like you, I'm also interested about a lot of things going on in our life.""Our life? Anyway, why do you have a gun?""For protection, of course. Tandaan mo na ikaw ang unang bumaril nang wala pa akong ginagawang mali.""You entered this house and that's y

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POVThe rear heavy hand landed a cross-impact on my left face and jawline, followed by a jab, resulting in the classic one-two combo.F*ck.I relaxed my neck muscles in order to maintain my strength and guarantee that my muscles in my hands were ready to respond against successful blows from the enemies. The power of my blows on his face and body caused him to bounce back and forth like a speed bag in all its splendor. Soon enough, he met the ground. Hindi pa ako nakuntento kaya ilang beses ko pang sinipa ang lecheng pagmumukha niya. Naisahan ako ng gago.Napahawak ako sa panga ko. Agad akong napangiwi nang maramdaman ang sakit. I licked my bottom lip and I felt the familiar sweet taste of blood on my wound. Napatingin ako sa likod ko nang maramdaman ang mga bagong presensiya. I spit on the ground and created a smirk before attacking another bunch of weak men.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV"Deianeira," Aeron quietly whispered my name as he touched my hair and wrapped me in his arms.Nakahiga kami sa kama, akap ang bawat isa habang walang saplot ang mga katawan, tanging makapal na comforter lang ang nakatakip sa amin."Hmm?" I responded in a murmur, my eyes still closed, enjoying this moment with my man.This is our normal mood every morning after a long and hard day of making love, cuddling, and talking. With this, I found relief in my chaotic life. I found my other half with him, which is unfathomable. Oo, hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala. Everything felt so surreal. Kaya minsan ay mas gugustuhin ko na lang magkulong sa kuwarto kasama siya nang hindi binibitawan ang bawat isa dahil baka bigla itong dumulas mula sa pagkakahawak ko at bumalik sa dati ang lahat."The colors in your eyes give you power and bravery," he added.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV "So, where do you want to go, my lady? Somewhere hot or cold?" si Aeron nang matapos na ang tawag. "I’m fine with anything." Kumalas ako sa yakap niya at nilagay sa center table ang phone ko. "Sa malamig na lang na lugar para oras-oras tayong magpapainit." "Are you f*cking insane?" Napailing-iling ako at nagtungo sa banyo para makaligo na. Papasok din sana si Aeron pero agad ko nang isinara ang pinto sa pagmumukha niya. Leche. Gusto palagi na lang nakadikit sa akin. Nakakairita na. "Any plans in the afternoon, Dee?" Aeron asked in the middle of our lunch. Saglit akong napatingin sa kanya. I put down the fork and knife I'm holding and clasp my hands together, putting my chin on it. Nginuya ko muna ang pagkain na nasa bibig ko pa bago siya sinagot. "You." Bigla siyang nabilaukan kaya n

When we arrived at Velana International Airport, we were taken by scenic seaplane ride to our chosen destination, Rangali Island. The airport hosts and counter personnel helped us with check-in and transfer to the lounge."What would you like to do first?" Aeron questioned as he walked, his hand near my buttock gently binding my body to his."I want to end this day with a rest. Let's spend some quality time tomorrow, shall we?""We can still spend the night the way we usually do. Think of it as our honeymo, Dee."Nagtinginan agad sa amin ang ibang mga staff na kasama namin. Hindi ko naman iyon inalintana dahil sadyang marumi at pasmado lang talaga ang bibig ng lalaking ito. Kinasanayan ko na ito."Shut up, Aeron. We’re not do

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

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

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.
