Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 32: Winter's Coming
WinterWinter paced back and forth, trying to control the anger building from within. Anger is a tricky emotion that must be repressed thoughtfully. A fire seed of anger can still inflame its surroundings. It starts small and undetected, but if not extinguished at the source, it grows into a flame that destroys everything in its path. I couldn't stop thinking about what had just happened. "What the hell were you thinking, Faye? Your stupidity and carelessness could have gotten us killed."Faye rolled her eyes. "What are you talking about?" "You were picking fights on territory that doesn't belong to you and flaunting your money as if it buys respect." my anger was simmering at Faye's carelessness."Money rules the world," she said ignorantly, "and I wasn't picking a fight." "Oh really?"∞∞∞Flashback Heading to the racer's booth to check in, there was gossip about someone called Goddess of Hell's Peak."Did you see the final roaster?" "No, why?" "The Goddess herself is racing ton
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 33: Ready! Set! Go!
LiviaWe got into our respective positions based on our dashcam numbers. I was in the center with dashcam 05. To my right were Alicia 04, Zoe 09, Nina 011, and Sandra 010 behind me. "You ready, babes?" Alicia yelled over the roaring engines."Hell yeah, I am," I yelled back. The awaited thrill of my car drifting around every twist and turn coursed through my blood. From my peripheral, I can see other racers getting into position. A smirk etched onto my lips as Faye pulled up to my left. "I can't wait to see your face after I cross the finish line first." I taunted."Oh, don't get your hopes too high. Otherwise, your ego will come crashing down to earth," she said smugly. My ego? I simply smiled at her and then focused on what was before me. One second is all it takes. A single second, a moment of hesitation could determine if you are ahead of the pack or the tail."RACERS ARE YOU READY?!" the flag girl shouted.I revved my engine four times, one for each member, and the girls did t
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 34: Shut It Down
Narration"RACERS, ARE YOU READY!"Percy jumped excitedly, "Finally, the race is about to begin!"They all sat in front of the flat screen to watch a much-anticipated race. Adrian sat on the edge of his seat with expectation. "This going to be so good."Apollo felt differently. The cameras panned from the racers to Hell's Peak. The street wrapped around the mountain leading to the top only to be sling-shotted down a winey slope on the other side. "This is the preliminary race?" Apollo asked with terror and worry in his voice."SET!"Malakai saw how worried the members of the Crimson Clan were for his sisters. "Don't worry. Livia, Alicia, Nina, Sandra, and Zoe have raced this mountain so many times it's second nature to them now. Trust me." he smiled reassuringly."GO!" Apollo watched with amazement at Livia's skill. She was the first over the starting line leading the pack. The way she drifted around the first sharp curve was beautiful. "What the hell?" Apollo yelled, witnessing on
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 35: Eye See
NarrationTaking this up to the high table will guarantee the immediate death of the imposters. "Do you think we must go that far? I'm not against it, but I want to ensure you are positive about this decision." Councilman Yang asked. "Sir, if I may, you seem like a reasonable guy. I will take the punishment. Just let the other girls go. They are my responsibility, so it's my fault I let things get this bad right under my nose. I am sorry on their behalf." "You can't keep bailing them out whenever they do something reckless, Winter. How will they learn if you're always saving their ass? I swear they will be the death of you someday." Juno argued.Anna suddenly shoved Juno and yelled, "Shut up, Juno, what do you know? They can't touch us anyway!" Faye turned to face Councilman Yang. "Look, mister, you have no idea who we are. If a single hair is misplaced on our heads, our families will hunt you down and kill you and the rest of these people.""See what I mean, Winter? These entitle
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 36: Verdict
ApolloWe posted masked up in a corner behind everyone, listening and observing. Truth be told, I would have killed those girls already if it were up to me."How dare they?" I looked over at a furious Chris, whose eyes never left Zoe.I walked over to him and placed my hand on his shoulder. "Calm down, Chris.""How can I calm down when my girl was recklessly put in danger?" His voice trailed off, and his eyes widened, realizing he had spilled his feelings. "I-I mean."I smirked at him behind my mask. "It's fine. I figured as much anyway." He was surprised. "You're not angry or going to lecture me about Zoe possibly being a distraction or something?" I gave his shoulder a light squeeze of reassurance. "Come on, don't give me that look. Like I told Adrian, I don't mind any of you dating. Just be aware of the risks that come with the territory. Besides, getting angry about you finding your other half when I found mine wouldn't be fair. Of course, we will set some boundaries, but that c
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 37: Morning Chaos
Apollo This is the life. Awaking to my girl snuggled closely to my chest is a life a man of stature could only dream of. I caressed her hair, grateful to have her in his arms. "You are something too perfect for someone like me. You are my biggest paradox. Being with me will bring you trouble, yet the mere thought of losing you scares me half to death. It's been ages since I've had such feelings. However, you are just as dangerous as I am with more power." "I know I am amazing, but how long will you keep this up? I initially found it cute, but now it's starting to get a little creepy?" I laughed. "You sneaky little devil, how long have you been awake?" "A while," she exclaimed, looking into my eyes. I hovered over her. "Oh really?" She shook her head yes before wrapping her arms around my neck and legs around my waist. "You're playing a dangerous game so early in the morning Miss Livia," I warned, feeling an erection coming. "Oh really?" she rubbed herself against me. A groan
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 38: Delivery
Livia My chicas, including Winter, Faye, Juno, Scarlet, Anna, and I, were in my city penthouse dressing room, preparing for the Banquet with music blasting in the background. After that night at the club, we all became close, and as expected, new relationships bloomed amid the chaos. Aside from that, Apollo and Malakai hit it off and became close. Apollo even invited them to the Banquet. It was surprising for Malakai and the others to get along so well since they're usually reserved when meeting new people. Incoming call "Speak of the devil. He will appear." I took my phone and managed to escape without the girls noticing. "Missing me already?" I cooed, walking down the stairs. I could still faintly hear the music playing upstairs. "Of course, I miss you, but that's not why I called. Wait, what's with all the noise?" Apollo dramatically gasped, "Are you having a party and didn't even bother to invite me? I'm so disappointed in you, Kitten." "Well, I wanted to be respectful in
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 39: Mafia Banquet
Apollo My heart raced at the anticipation of holding Livia in my arms as others gawked over our powerful presence. Suddenly my mind took a turn thinking about the lustful eyes that would be on her. I giggled, imagining her mocking me. "Jealous much, King?" My love for her is like a flame that's constantly growing, almost charming. I wonder if this is the same love my father had for my mother. He used to tell me stories about him and my mother in their younger years. She was a robust and innocent woman with a pure heart, something that was nonexistent in his world. Even though she was taken from me at a young age, I was lucky enough to be loved by her unconditionally. She had a smile that could brighten a room and a laugh that could heal the world. After I lost her, a void grew in my little heart and only grew bigger after my father passed. But ever since I met Livia, that void has slowly been filled. "Does he always smile like that? It's kind of creepy." Blake whispered, not so di

LiviaI laughed as Apollo kept kissing all over my body. "We've been in bed all day. At some point, we must get up.""That's not true. We've been in the shower, closet, and on the dresser." Apollo chuckled. "Then, in the shower again. I would have taken you to the balcony if it weren't for the guards. We've been pretty productive if you ask me."I fell back in a fit of laughter. "You are ridiculous, and my girl is swollen because of you.""You loved every minute of it. Devour me... Deeper... Fuck, Apollo, you feel so good... Right there, right there, right there, right there." he mocked.I covered his mouth. "Okay, I get it. You fucked me into oblivion."Suddenly his aura changed. There was something darker, tantalizing, seductive, yet possessive in his eyes. "No, I didn't. I didn't want pain to be associated with our first-time together. Although there were a few times I nearly lost control." He said matter of f
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 55: First Time
LiviaThe morning breeze roused me out of my slumber as its coolness grazed my exposed skin. I nestled into the warmth of Apollo's arms as I watched the curtains dance to the rhythm of nature. His masculine aroma mixed deliciously with the garden's floral fragrance a few feet from our balcony.I rubbed the remainder of my sleep from my eyes and gazed at the ethereal man sleeping soundly beside me. I find it strange, hard even, to find something so meaningful in someone so special. He is like the Sun, every day, it rises and sets, but it is always there. Reliable since the beginning of time.I straddled his stomach. "Wake up, Apollo. It's time to start the day. We have a long day ahead of us, so I need my Mafia King up and ready to start the day with his Queen.""What your Mafia King needs right now is cuddling from his lovely Queen," he buried his face into my breast.I laughed. "That tickles, Daddy."
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 54: Him
Livia "The next move?" I pondered. Devising plans is my guilty pleasure, but executing them successfully is dearer. "The White Vultures is all about gaining ultimate power, right? Frankly, I don't think that is entirely their motive. That attack the other night was thought-out yet sporadic. I believe Vanessa has no desire to pursue Apollo or become the Mafia Queen. I am at a loss for what they truly want. Which bothers me." Understanding the enemies' motives is the legend of maneuvering them the way we want. Then I thought about something that could be valuable. "Who was the former leader of White Vultures?" "Vanessa's grandfather, Oscar Myers." "Myers? Oscar Myers? Do you have a picture of him?" "I might. Give me a second." Poet vigorously scanned through files on his laptop. "Oscar is a very privy man, unlike Vanessa, who boldly states she's a Mafia P
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 53: Livia Remember's
LiviaGunshots rang in the air. Dead bodies and blood were everywhere. A little girl sat in a corner, rocking back and forth with hands over her ears. The people with no faces are there again, protecting the little girl. "Run" was the last thing she heard before everything went black. This dream again. "Is it a nightmare? Is it a memory? Who was that girl?" I finally have the answers to those questions. It's not just a dream. This is a memory of my nightmares. The memories I longed for came to me like a flood."Livia! LIVIA! Are you okay?" When I opened my eyes, Cassian was standing over me. "Oh my god Livia you scared the shit out of us."Tears flowed from my eyes, remembering how my once happy, loving life was replaced with hatred and pain. "Sunny?" I fell into his embrace, overwhelmed, shaking, remembering everything. I was finally ready to face reality. That explains why my heart always felt content when I was around Cassian. Her body finally revealed the truth about that inciden
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 52: The Truth
The In Between "I still don't understand, Alaric. How is any of this relevant?" "Use your head, Livia. Have you ever heard the saying, he who seeks revenge digs two graves? Do you know why that is?" "A grave for your enemy and another for yourself because you're dooming yourself with whoever you seek revenge against. "Exactly, my girl. Revenge is close acquaintance with misery, and we know how much that bitch loves company." There was still something that bothered Livia. "After declaring war on Vanessa, what happened to us, Alaric?" "That's something you will have to remember yourself." ∞∞∞ [Earlier that morning…] Governor Lacy and the board of directors were overwhelmed by the gallery of people gathered in front of the courthouse. "Governor Lacy, what will

Parker Miles of trees covered the land. The reflective greens of the landscape glowed as the sunlight danced between the trees. Standing at the entrance of the highlands, a feeling of peace as the wind sings a lullaby of serenity. "I've lived here practically my whole life and never knew about this," I was about to leave the cave when Asa stopped me. He pointed to a trip wire right in front of my feet and the censored alarms ten feet away. "Damn, that would have been bad. Thanks for having my back." I spoke gratefully. "No biggie, we are all here for the same goal. Percy, go ahead of us and disarm the alarms. Alaric set up some C-4 explosives throughout the cave. Jonah, you should stay with him for backup and ensure the others arrive without hassle. Everyone else, come with me and stay alert." Asa commanded. Watching him, I was glad Asa was on his side. Percy finished disarming the alarms in the entranceway of the cave. "Everything is clear." We began to walk forward cautiously. "
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 50: Found You
Narration Vanessa was in turmoil, nothing ever came easy for her, and now she had to deal with this. "What's wrong? Did things not go according to plan?" Livia taunted. "Shut up. Layla, take my phone. I want to send a message to King." "Gosh, you reek of desperation." Vanessa punched Livia's jaw. Blood instantly pooled in her mouth. "I said shut up." "Things are finally getting exciting." Livia laughed, licking the blood from her lip. Layla looked at her, concerned. "I don't think that's-" Vanessa cut her off. "I didn't ask you to think. Take the dame video!" she yelled. Layla rolled her eyes. "Whatever?" Vanessa then reverted her attention to Livia. "You think I'm the pathetic one? I'm not the one tied to a chair." "On purpose, may I add? And you are also not the one who has King's heart. It must suck being nothing more than a little puppet." "The ca
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 49: Oscar's Proposal
Apollo"I have eyes on Myers. There seems to be no suspicious activity, but I advise you to keep your guard up." Austin informed through the earpiece.Adrian had instructed all his high-ranking soldiers to surround the building just in case something was to pop off. You can never be too safe, especially with a man like Oscar Myers."Keep your eyes peeled. We are heading in. Standby." I cut the line. "Stay alert, Ace, and don't let him get to you."Ace side-eyed me. "I can say the same for you.""Mr. Myers, your guest has arrived." the receptionist announced before quietly leaving the office."So rumor has it your little girlfriend went missing. It's been two days. One can only assume the worst. Perhaps she wouldn't have gotten in such a predicament if she were a Mafia Princess."Only a few people know the severity of Livia's whereabouts. It seems Oscar has crawled his way into my territory. Okay,
