MORTUARY*

Antonio walked into the mortuary slowly, his eyes gazing around the numerous grave lowered around the big land.

Some people could be seen in front of some graves, crying while some were with flowers placing it on the top of it.

Antonio bit his lips as he remembered how he lost his wife, Tatiana's mother and he blinked tears.

His eyes roamed around but no sign of Tatiana. She's always frequent in this place but today's different.

He sighted a particular grave and he moved towards him kneeling beside it as he brought his hands to it

His gaze flickered at the old picture of a woman in her 30's and he closed his eyes slowly remembering his past.

"Rayyan, don't go yet! Don't go!" 

"I have to attend to someone honey....I'll be back in a jiffy"

"I have a bad feeling about this rayyan. You're not safe!"

"Don't be too overprotective Tony, I'll be back muah!"

Her smiles filled his head as tears fell from his eyes.

DARK VIPERS CLAN*

Lila was on her own walking towards her suite when Blaze came towards her suddenly and she turned.

"Hey, are you okay!?" He asked worriedly and she let out a sly smile.

"I'm fine!" She replied, playing with her fingers.

Blaze noticed something strange as he furrowed his brows but he soon shrugged.

"You've been quiet throughout today, are you seriously alright?" He asked again and she groaned.

"I'm fine, just stressed!" She replied, facing forward.

She can't bring herself to face him at all.

"Let me walk you to your suite then!" He offered and she smiled.

"Thanks!"

Blaze lifted his eyes. Something is definitely wrong, the Lila he knows would turn his offer down.

"Okay!" 

They started walking together while chatting continuously.

Just then, Lilith was coming from the opposite side when her gaze met with the duo.

Somehow she felt deranged as her heart thickened.

She felt something she has never felt before.

Jealousy?

Suddenly, someone tapped her and she jolted turning to see pierce.

"Who are you staring at?" She asked.

"Nothing, no one!" She shook her head negatively.

"Let go, we still need to do more training so we can get to be as strong as the vipers!" Pierce urged taking her hand.

Lilith scoffed. "Indeed!" 

Pierce frowned. "I thought you wanted to be as strong as your twin sister!"

"Huh! I said that?" Lilith asked.

"Yeah, do you forget things that easily?" 

"Nevermind, let go!" Lilith snapped and turned away as Pierce followed her.

She brought out her phone and sent a message before dipping it back into her pocket.

"Hey, are your legs that long. You walk too fast!" Pierce muttered and she scoffed inwardly.

"Meet my pace then!"

Meanwhile, Lila phone dinged and she halted. Blaze halted too as she brought out her phone to see a message from Lilith.

✉️ LET SEE AT MY SUITE BY 8PM TONIGHT, SCAR ISN'T ALWAYS AROUND AT THAT TIME.

Blaze wanted to peeps into it when Lila covered it.

"What are you hiding?" He asked.

"Nothing!" She replied and they continued walking.

LUCIFER'S LAIR*

Tatiana was busy cleaning the suite stressfully, she dropped the napkins she's using and rested on a nearby table.

The suite is always clean not even a dirt could be seen on it but as told, she must clean it up every single day.

Subsequently, her eyes met with a particular wristwatch made of a sapphire beside her.

She took it, her eyes roaming around it.

"Wanna steal another!" A hoarse voice came behind her and she shrieked dropping the wristwatch immediately.

She turned back to see Lucifer walking towards her and she gulped down hard.

He wasn't putting on his hat like always and he was on an armless black top which revealed his tattoos perfectly.

He got to her and she swallowed. He was actually an inch away from her.

He moved his face closer to hers and she trembled greatly.

What does he wanna do?

Lucifer brought out his hands reaching her back. She closed her tightly, his presence was making her breathlessly and scared at the same time.

She could smell his scent which she can't describe at all. It was magical, who knows how a mafia lord could have such.

Suddenly, he moved away from her and she exhaled opening her eyes to see him putting on the wristwatch she had taken earlier.

Her eyes met with a drawing on his arm and she furrowed her brows. She had actually saw this drawing familiarly before but she can't recall where she had seen it.

It was a drawing of a rock and an arrow stabbed into it.

"What were you thinking huh!" He asked and she clamps her lips together taking the napkin she's using.

She shook her head instantly, "Nothing!" She replied and he lifted his brows.

"But, please can I go see my father. I need to know how he's doing!" She pleaded and he twitched his lips.

He took fast strides towards her leaning behind her ears.

"Isn't he the reason you were here!" He whispered and she gulped.

"Can........"

"No, not yet!" He snapped leaving the suite and she groaned.

★★★★★

Niko hid in a corner and brought out a phone from his pocket silently, he looked around to be sure no one's is there.

"Hey Niko!"

"Why are you calling me at this period?" He asked.

"I just want to talk to you!" She replied.

"About what?"

"The money you promised me, it has been a week now!" She grunted.

"Forget it Cesca, goodbye!" He snapped and hung up immediately without waiting for her to say a word.

Just then, another call came in and he groaned only to see it someone else.

He picked it and placed it on his ears.

"Hello!"

"Niko, you need to leave that clan now!"

"Why!" He asked.

"Get back to the Vessels before midnight!" The voice came again.

"Is there anything wrong!" Niko asked again.

"I'm sure you don't wanna get beheaded!" The voice threatened and he grinned.

"F*ck!" With that, he hung up. He had totally forgotten what he was supposed to be doing in this clan.

"I love that!" A voice came and Niko shivered immediately.

Someone is there!
