A deafening silence ensued after Hunter said that. It seems like just a joke for him, but to people who know their identity it seems like a threat. To relieve the tension that could have formed Jake released a loud laugh and shakes the boat to get their attention which he did successfully because evil looking eyes aroused in him, shocked by the movement he made in the boat."What are you doing?" Vanessa asked irritably. "Why? I just saw something, it made me excited. Do you see that cave? We can enter it. The owner of this boat said that there's a paradise behind that cave but no tourists were daring to go beyond the eyes could see. Wanna try it?" Jake asked them and to know the truth they narrowed their eyes to see what he was pointing at. There is a cave not far from where they are. They had come quite a distance from the shore and they did not even realize it, and out of curiosity they just nodded to see the said paradise behind that cave.In a moment they reached the cave, it was
"Get out of the water, now!" Ivory shouted at them, they immediately looked at her and obeyed what she said. Even soaking wet they tried to make them feel the whole place."What did you see?" Jake asked her, instead of answering him she came a little closer to the water and touched it, the already cold water earlier was gradually heating up as if it was already caustic. "I think the guardian of this place is here," they finally heard the answer they had been waiting for. "What is the creature guarding this place then?" Dominus asked. But even before Ivory could answer, a large bubble that seemed to be boiling water came out, causing them to immediately retreat from their position. After a while, the bubble continued to grow as if a creature was coming out of it. They became attentive and prepared their weapons. "W-what?" Hunter asked, puzzled. They were taken aback when the creature emerged from beneath the surface. "Snake?" he said, as if unsure what to do next. A big snake was sp
We travelled until we finally reached the entrance of the base, this isn't just a normal entrance as we are taking the direction where no one can follow us. This is the area we need to always protect as this is our home. Hundreds of agents, our people are living here, we can't risk their lives just because we've become reckless. I took a deep breath as I closed my eyes to feel the cold blow of night air. The clock has turned to its upper center, the moon was bright as if it was telling me to look up and stare at it. Vanessa and Ashleigh remain leaning their backs against the car. We used to do this after a mission, just us, resting in the middle of the night with this beautiful darkness as a witness.After a few more minutes, I decided to go for a stroll, leaving the car where Ashleigh had parked it. They used to call this location our hidden hideaway, and I could feel them following me. This appeals to everyone, including me, because it is so refreshing. Flowers assist me in reducin
THIRD PERSON'S P.O.VThe sun had risen, however the three women were still in their deep sleep.Andrius walks around the hall to first check his daughters, he was planning not to bother them today as he knew they needed some rest from their last mission. He sincerely smiled when he finally saw the last as they were just sleeping in one room. He believes that triplets like them should do this thing even if they are already a grown up woman, being a triplets isn't typical, especially for them. He silently closed the room door and turned his back to the presence of a man who was currently staring at him."I am glad you are back, I thought it would take you some weeks to completely heal from your accident," he simply said and took him to the bar counter where Jake was."Still asleep?" Jake asked, greeting the two men strolling towards him."They need it." Thinking about what his daughters did last night, he wants them to rest for this day. "Dominus." Andruis called the man on his side, D
"She's back." The group of people were coming to them, they greeted them by nodding their heads. Especially the woman who's currently holding a gun."Why are you with such a thing? You might kill someone here, do you know how to use that right?" Vanessa can't stop herself but to ask as she was curious about it. Estella smirked at her, pointing it to her head. "If I shoot you right now and hit you in the head, it means that I don't know how to use it but if I pulled the trigger and you weren't hit by the bullet, it means I know how to handle guns." Vanessa raised her eyebrows upon looking at the gun that is currently pointing at her. Ashleigh smirked. "Hey, don't be nervous," she said and patted Vanessa's shoulder. "It's not even have one bullet inside.""Who is nervous? I am not, and will never. I am faster than her, I know." She replied."You said it, child."Estella patted her shoulders, causing her to look at her aunt. "Where is your father? I have been looking for him since ear
I didn't imagine that it would be like this! I know dad knows what he is doing but this identity doesn't suit me at all. I wanted to switch to Ashleigh but she didn't let me. Argh, I think I have been standing here for a long time even though I just started, checking these ugly people who were going inside the fucking building. I don't even know what they are doing inside since I know we aren't allowed to go anywhere except for this. My feet hurt and I think it became numb. I should really have taken that one.I want to go inside too and help them do the mission. I am acting like a look out for this. This is only the first time I did this part in any mission since I always want to be the spotlight, but nevermind, I will make sure I will not take any after this.After some minutes more, once Ashleigh told me to make a scene I smiled widely. Finally, there is something I can do here right now. I thought of anything to do and wickedly smiled once I saw of this man beside me. An idea came
THIRD PERSON'S P.O.V"How could you?" Avria disgustedly asked as she walked down the aisle. Her face was telling them how she feels at the moment, that they shouldn't be alive."Stop it, Avria." Giovanni commanded but she refused to listen. She kept on walking until she reached her. A hard slap landed on Ariadne's face as Avria went in front of her. Ariadne did not manage to react fast as her heart was beating so fast. She doesn't really know the reason for the things happening in her life, but still she needs to keep fighting, keep on making herself alive. The hell world was eating her, the demon was watching her and all she wanted was to escape.Ariadne eventually touches the part where she has been hurt, and it's her heart. She doesn't want to believe that everyday of her life, spending with these kinds of people, will make her heart crushed into pieces even more. When Avria did not get any response to her, she was about to slap her again when a loud roar filled the entire hall.
ARIADNE'S P.O.VIt took me so long to realize that I already got in the condo. It's been an hour since I reached the gate but I never got inside, my thoughts were flying into something unbelievable.People passing by were looking at me, they might think I am crazy, staring at nowhere, doing nothing. I moved my feet a little bit to support myself, I can feel the pain caused by standing here. I sighed. I should not think about it anymore, Giovanni will not let me go home if he is not done yet for punishing me. "Oh, you are here? I thought you would stay there until tomorrow?" Asked by Haria who was sitting on the sofa, eating chips while watching a movie on the screen. "Is there any problem there? You look so tired, I thought everything's going well?" she added. Instead of answering, I just smiled at her and sat beside her on the sofa. She offered me some of her snacks that I accepted. I feel so drained, hungry as hell. I want to eat and not think too much. "I don't feel like working
"Stop imagining things," Nix said. Alyana gave him a frown. It's been 30 minutes since they last talked to each other, and they were already in the living area watching movies. After she asked the question a while ago, Nix just left her standing there."You are creepy," she said to Nix."What?""You are suddenly saying something there, it's creepy." Alyana took the blanket to cover herself."Are you saying your boss is creepy?" Nix asked, making Alyana immediately look at him."No sir," she quickly said and focused herself on what they were watching. She then heard Nix sighed beside her so she took a glance at him.'Is he sleepy? Or he just really had many problems in life?'' she thought."Do you like what you are seeing?" Nix asked her, she didn't realize that she's already staring at his face. "No sir," she said, however, it made Nix glare at her. How dare she say that to her boss. "Really?" Nix asked and slowly went near her. She closes her eyes, and shakes her head."No sir."Ni
"I already told you, Pebble is just my friend." A man who was in a tuxedo said while entering the office. He looked at the two people inside the room and smiled at them before putting the phone beside his ear again. "I will just call you later baby, don't forget to wear the dress I bought you for tonight. Yes, yes I will surely be early so be prepared," he added while grinning."Stop talking about your women when you are already in my office." Nix straightly said."Whoa, whoa, you are so hot headed. What happened to you bro? I just got back from seeing those ugly faces and you will welcome me with that attitude? How could you?" Zach, who had just entered the room, said while putting down the suitcase he was holding. "The files." Nix lends his hand to him, waiting for something nice he could give. Zach smirked at him and took something in the case, then gave him the papers he was asking. Zach's attention diverted to the girl who was busy scanning some papers and poked her using the pe
"He hasn't woken up yet? Is what happened to him really that horrible that he hasn't woken up until now?" Jake inquired as they entered the room where the man they had discovered in the woods the day before lay. It's also been two days since they discovered this man unconscious, and he hasn't awoken yet. His wounds have healed, and he is recovering slowly."It seems that the bed is too soft so he just chose to sleep for a long time rather than answer the questions we prepared for him." Hunter was still joking while reading a book. He grinned and looked at everyone in the room. Their boss' three daughters are complete. Steel is also there, taking a glimpse at Ivory when he has the opportunity.'Tsk. It's really obvious if this man likes a woman, but he is so afraid to face Ivy's blow. Maybe, Ivy doesn't want that kind of man like him so until now she's still refusing his love. He is strong outside however, he's really a coward. If I were a woman I wouldn't even want to be with him too,
Andrius smirked as he saw his daughters return from their search for their belongings. He realizes they are perplexed by what he is doing, but he believes it will benefit his girls in the future. He had considered taking them to the location they desired while they were still in his office, but after hearing the plan, he decided a thing that he was the only one who knew and that was to put them to the test.Vanessa sat next to him on a rock, breathless and barely able to communicate due to exhaustion. Next to her are Andrius' other two daughters, whose expressions now demand an explanation."We knew it, but why did you keep it hidden?" Ashleigh said to Andrius, who chuckled when he heard it."Dear daughters," he said, motioning them to sit on the grass first, which they did. "I am curious to see if you will return once you realize I am the one who is behind it, but I notice you still tried to find it on your own," Andrius explained. Despite their confusion, the triplets pay attention
"Try to hurt him more and I will rip your head out of your body." Hunter, even though he is in pain, still heard what Ashleigh said. Her eyes glaring at the man holding Hunter's neck. "Really? You will do that?" The tension between all of them began to rise more as he tightened it, causing Hunter to spit some blood on his mouth. "S-Stop…" he can't even speak properly, his eyes began to wet and his vision was now a bit blurry. "I-I can't b-breathe!" He tried to yell but it seemed like his voice was now out of his control. Demon, it's the true demon, he thought. He is now under the strength of a ruthless demon in the place."Your fear, ugh. I can feel it, I know you are born for me. Your soul, I want it mine. You are making me stronger, I think I need to thank you for that."One thing he is not sure about is when he saw his teeth turning into an odd one. The structure of his face started changing too. That was the thing that most terrified Hunter more. One more tight grip, he can b
I hope they will find Echo's mother.My attention got diverted when I heard a knock from the door. It quickly opened and there I saw my sisters faces, along with Steel and Hunter, but I am confused why Dominus isn't with them, also as Jake but that person can sometimes be busy."Are you feeling well? Dr. Nigel already told us what the problem is with you too." Ashleigh asked me once they went inside, she sat beside me while looking at Echo. "I am just fine. I want to go with you on finding his mother but Dr. Nigel told me not to. He has only 2 days and the poison will definitely take his life." She was nodding her head when she took my hand and held it. I saw a small hole in it, maybe it's from the needle they used when she got taken some blood from her body to give to me. "Don't worry, we will do our best to find her. All you need to do now is to rest and be safe. Also, follow all what Nigel will tell you. It's for your own good, understand?" I chuckled because of it. She is now a
"He woke up earlier and he was looking for you, especially his mother but it didn't last for five minutes and he slept again. There is something we need to take out of his skin. It needs an operation, but we can't do that here. We need his parents to take responsibility." Dr. Nigel said to me once I reached the medical department, Dominus guided me to one of the rooms where Echo was admitted, after that he left the room, saying that he will look for Hunter. I just let him though, I don't have a reason not to.Echo is still unconscious, I don't know what's happening to him and needs Dr. Nigel's explanation."And I found out this." He showed me the result of something, then there I saw my name. Why is my name here? I didn't do any tests for me, I can't remember it."What does this mean?" I asked, confused by what he was trying to say to me about the results. He sighed before telling me the thing I didn't expect."Your blood contains a poison, same as Echo but he is more likely to lead a
It's been a few hours since we arrived at this location, and we've done everything we can to make the females feel at ease. All of them need to be tested first before letting them go, Sir Andrius told us that those who don't have families will be given a shelter.I adore him that much. The help doesn't end there. He still cares for the women and he wants them to somehow forget what happened to them. I also want that to happen. I am worried about their situation, I already experienced things similar to them. The time when I thought there would never be sunlight to light my world again, but here I am.I saw the triplets together with Jake and Steel, contacting those people who might help us. I can't help but to be glad looking at them, just by observing what they are doing. I am already getting satisfied with the actions. They are true leaders.I sighed and turned my gaze at Hunter. He was already tired that Dr. Malea told him to sleep for a while. I saw how she proudly looked at her s
An unfamiliar voice asked behind us. I decided not to turn around as I can feel a threat in their presence. It was that person, or maybe them whom I felt earlier. And I am sure they are like me. "Oh, the three guards. We saw each other again." Vanessa said in response to them. Did they know those guys? How and where? Maybe because they are part of this organization, their opponent. But do they know their real identity?"It's you." One of them spoke, he had a deep voice compared to the one who asked first. "I won't forget what you did to us the first time we met each other. However, it's your lucky day since we aren't here to fight any Dark Phoenix but we will promise to make you pay for what you have done when we see each other again." He continued, I kept my back to them. If I show my face, will they know or recognize me? I guess not but I need to be sure. I know there are many people hunting me now. They need to take me back to that place. But I don't want that to happen, so I need
