CHASE

"Not her, You!!!" he blurted and she stepped back instantly. 

Hellcat's face contorted in anger, her eyes flashing with defiance. "Me?" she exclaimed, her voice rising in indignation. 

Lucifer's eyes darkened, his jaw clenched in frustration. "Should I repeat myself twice!" he snapped, his icy tone sending a chill down Tatiana's spine.

Hellcat's face twisted in a scowl, clenching her fist as she glared at Tatiana with a venomous gaze. 

Without any other word, Hellcat spun on her heel and walked out of the suite furiously, leaving an uncomfortable silence on her way.

Tatiana let out a deep breath, trying to calm as she went back to pick the kit. 

She approached him cautiously, dropping the medical kit on the table beside him unboxing the tools.

She started treating it, removing the bullets as her eyes met his shirtless chest, and she swallowed hard. 

His biceps, abs, and chiseled features stood out hotly, making her gulp hard. 

How can a devil be this hot!!! she thought, her mind wandering for a moment.

Lucifer's icy voice cut through her reverie. "Get lost or you're dead!" he growled, his gaze still fixed outside. 

Tatiana jerked up, her heart racing as she continued treating the wound in a haste.

VIXEN & HELLCAT SUITE*

Hellcat stormed into her suite then to her room facing the mirror in front of her.

Her jaws clenched furiously as she recalled what happened earlier.

"He chose her over me!" She grunted.

"Who the hell is she to him?" She flared up biting her fingers.

"Who's that!" Vixen asked, coming from the bathroom.

"Don't ask me, he f*cking chose that bitch over me...is she that important!" She yelled hitting the table before her and Vixen tilted her head as she was taken aback by hellcat reaction.

"What the heck, is that enough to make you angry?" Vixen rolled her eyes.

"don't you get it!" Hellcat flared up, raising the pitch of her voice.

"Yeah, I do. Stop Obsessing over someone that won't return your feelings" Vixen muttered.

"Maybe we should just be f*ckmate forever!"

"Ewww, how do you think a man could stick to one p**sy forever!" Vixen said and hellcat glared at her.

"I thought you were useful but you're useless!" Hellcat glared and walked further into her room hitting the door loudly behind her.

"Don't break it down, girlie!"

SICILY*

9PM~GAMBLING HOUSE*

The air in the house was thick with scent of smokes, alcohols and desperation. The room was covered with colours and sounds from the background.

The soft glow of cigarettes, the hum of conversation, the clinking of glasses and the loud laughter all blend together in a cacophony of sound.

The room was filled with tables with different activities, with players hunched over cards, dice or spinning wheels, their face was a mixture of intensity and hope.

On a particular table, were a group of men playing cards while chattering.

"I'll drop 200,000 dollars!" A man surrendered.

"My phone!" The other said and man grinned loudly, people knows him as the Shark Lord, the best gambler in the house who wins almost everytime.

"You're gonna lose your phone Fredo!" The shark lord added, a sly smirk on his lips.

"Then let see!" Fredrick replied and the man shrugged facing his men who were behind him.

The started the game simply and soon it became heated between the two as none of them wanted to give up.

The game went on frevently until Fredrick wins making the man and his men shocked.

"Ehhhehhhehh!" Fredrick laughed loudly.

"You see.....my money!!!" He added taking the money and the phone along.

"Let play again, I'll drop 300,000 dollars!" The shark lord grunted, dropping a pile of notes on the table and Fredrick grinned.

"Okay, I drop this back for it!" Fredrick muttered, dropping the dollars and phone on the table.

The game started and soon Fredrick won again. He smirked darkly taking all his benefits from the table, putting it inside a bag.

Meanwhile, a masked shadow was leaning behind a wall watching them secretly while sipping a drink.

"It over, I need to go!" Fredrick stood up clutching his bag tightly to himself and he walked away from them.

The stark lord hit the table slightly, his jaws clenching.

He has just lost twice!!!

He gestured to one of his men who placed his ears near his lips. The shark lord whispered something into his ears and he nodded in affirmation.

"Yes boss!" With that, he left.

Frederick eyes glinted in relief as hie walked down the lonely path far away from the gambling house.

He noticed footsteps at his back and he stopped for a moment, turning back but no one is in sight.

He exhaled and increased his pace walking faster.

Meanwhile, a figure came out from hiding revealing one of the shark lord men, he followed Frederick secretly not until someone covered his lips from behind grabbing his neck before dragging him away.

"Who the f*ck are you!, Are you also after Fredrick?" The guy asked but the strange figure kicked his groin and he groaned loudly.

*

Fredrick was rushing down the long path fearfully when a masked figure grabbed him immediately.

"Why can't the shark lord let me have this money in peace!" He grinned but no response came from him...

"Let me go....."

Instantly, the masked figure kicked his legs and he fell from his grip immediately.

Suddenly, a dart flew into Fredrick's neck and his head dropped unconsciously.

10PM~GAMBLING HOUSE*

The guy held his groan as he walked into the gambling house to see the Shark Lord waiting at a table.

"Boss!" He groaned.

"The money?" The shark lord demanded.

"Someone is also after Fredrick! I wasn't able to get it!" He replied.

"Are you that weak?" The shark lord growled throwing a knife at his direction but slightly, it cut the guy's arm.

"I'm sorry Shark Lord!"

"I f*cking lost 500,000 dollars you nitwit!" He flared up and the guy went on his knees.

"Apologies Boss, Fredrick has been taken away also!" 

"What!!!"
