Another two months had passed and everything was at peace. The syndicate was in a safe zone, and her company was going well. It was too perfect to be true but she was enjoying the pleasure of the peaceful environment she thought she wouldn't experience.

Until a defamation case occurred.

"What is it now?" The annoyance is heard in her voice as Angelica hands her a tablet with a news article about their company. She seemed nervous to see Dianne's reaction as she should.

Dianne slammed her hands on the table before standing up. She furiously walks out of her office while Angelica, her assistant in the company, follows behind her. "Reporters are waiting outside for an announcement," she whispered.

"Clear the way, I don't want a single reporter a meter near me," she ordered and her assistant immediately called the guards to tell them what to do. Her heels echoed as the employees in her company moved out of her way. She's a kind CEO yet deadly when messed with.

    "Are you insane?!" She blinked a couple of times before gulping as Harrison scolds her. She moved away from him before grabbing a cupcake. "You know his connection to the chaos we have right now, right? Ever since you stopped contact with that man, the elites have been laying low. God knows what they'll do once the news spreads to them," he said in frustration before he sat down on a couch. She pouted, realizing she was being careless. "Sorry?" She doesn't know if she should apologize or not, making him scoff. "Talk to Angelica then…" Putting the blame on her friend while pouting, Harrison left the room to confront her friend. He never talked to Angelica, nor looked at her. He knows she's friends with Dianne but he doesn't want to get involved with her as she doesn't know about the syndicate. Harrison sighed heavily as he saw her talking to other employees. He walked in their direction but stopped in his tracks when another man intentionally spilled coffee on her. He watched as she

    The case was resolved and Dianne's reputation was still tarnished because of how she blew a punch on Mr. Smith but some netizens view it as a well-deserved punch because of how he disrespected her deceased parents and her ability as the head of a corporation. Two days after the case ended, she called Silvester to her office for the check for his payment. Though, she was surprised to see Harrison waiting in her office. "And why are you here?" she asked before rolling her eyes. "Can I not surprise my master?" he teasingly asked and her lips parted before she hysterically laughed. "Master?" she asked with raised eyebrows as she walked over to him. "I brought you a cake to celebrate winning the case." He opened a box and the aroma of the cake spread inside the room as Dianne smelled the delicious flavor of strawberry. "And chocolate." He winked at her before throwing a bar of chocolate in her direction and she caught it. She excitedly ran in his direction before hugging him. "Thank yo

    "YOU IMBECILES!" Her voice gave everyone a new thing to be fearful of. She massaged the temples on her forehead before the horrific incident played over and over inside her mind. She feels like crying yet no tears are coming out of her tired eyes. "I told you to not harm him!" she screamed as her emotions got to her, making her weakness appear. She was almost breaking before Harrison took it upon himself to order everyone out. "Leave," he commanded everyone in the room. He clenched his jaw and Dianne's tears fell on the ground. "Dianne…" He bent down and massaged her back. "I still… I still cared about him! Even if he betrayed m-me. Now he's… dead." She covered her mouth as she silently cried. (Flashback) The time was ticking and the night was growing darker. They had a lead as to where Rae could be as many of them were looking for him. Dianne grows anxious, she wants to catch him because he's an important person to know more about the elites but she also still cares for him. "

    HER PHONE kept ringing while Silvester's taking care of her. He had no choice but to answer it himself despite what the other line might think. Upon answering the call, he heard Harrison's worried tone. "She's with me," Silvester simply uttered and the other line went silent. "Why is she with you?" Harrison's annoyance grew, ready to scold Dianne again because of her stupidity. He already told her to avoid Silvester but she's stubborn as a bat. "She was drugged." His eyes widened. "What?! Where are you?" His heart almost fell out of his chest waiting for Silvester's answer. "Take her where no one can see he–" He was cut off. "She's in my house," he uttered before telling him the location of his house. Harrison rushed to get to her. Only a few minutes passed by and he already arrived in front of the said house. Harrison didn't waste any time, once the door opened for him, he barged in without the permission of Silvester. "Where's Dianne?" He looked around and spotted her on the cou

    THE DOOR suddenly opened and Dianne pushed him away. Silvester cursed, forgetting to lock the front door. She wiped her lips before going into the living room to check the door only to find Harrison entering. "Do you not know how to knock?" Silvester asked in an annoyed tone while blankly staring at him. "If you don't mind, I'll be taking her home now," he declared before holding her shoulders and spinning her around to check if there was something wrong with her or not. "I'm fine," she said while he continued spinning her around. "You didn't do anything to her, did you?" Harrison questioned and her cheeks turned bright red that she had to cover them with her hands. Silvester kept his cool, acting oblivious to what happened just a few seconds ago. "Nothing," he answered. "I'll take you to your house." He grabbed her things before opening the front door and she followed behind. "See you around, Dianne," Silvester said with happiness evident in his voice. "No!" Harrison shouted be

    HARRISON heard the news that spread like wildfire. Dianne was already caught up with a court case, now she's dealing with an armed fugitive at a restaurant. And my god, the media loves to spread everything they can. She was already on fire, now she's jumping into a volcano."Shoot the fucking man, god damn it!" he shouted in irritation before standing up from his seat. "We can't," the other line uttered. "He's holding a gun to her head," they said and his eyebrows furrowed. He looked at the TV and saw the live broadcast of the man bringing her out with a gun pointed at her. "Is this man a random fugitive or is he involved with us in a way?" he asked but they couldn't answer him. "Investigate it, you idiots!" His nervousness and worry are getting to him, wondering how the hell did the man get an upper hand with Dianne. He packed his bag before leaving the office. He put on an earpiece and a hat, looking like a hitman. He walked down the hall with a furious face. BEFORE Dianne was c

    THE WOMAN with blonde long hair was looking out her window while drinking red wine. The sun brushed her fair skin as her lips formed a smirk. "I warned her to stay away from Silvester," she uttered as her eyes watched the streets. She turned her head around and looked at her assistant. "How is it going?" she asked before putting her lips on the glass. "They’ve met," her assistant uttered in a low voice before bowing her head. The blonde woman smiled before taking a sip. "The prisoner and Dianne?" she asked to make sure and she was satisfied when her assistant nodded. "They’ve finally reunited. Let the show begin," She laughed maniacally as her assistant cringed in fear. Her assistant gulped before bowing her head and exiting the room silently. DIANNE and the man went back inside the restaurant and he tied her to a chair. She looked around and saw her phone across the room, realizing she accidentally dropped it. She looked at the old man who was still pointing his gun at her. "You

    DIANNE was hesitant about going to their hideout as she doesn't want Silvester to know things that he shouldn't even have an idea about. She was overthinking everything yet Harrison still brought them there to avoid any more issues. With a hesitant mind, she got out of the car and looked around the underground garage to see if anyone was there. To her delight, no one was there to see them. She sighed in relief before letting Silvester out of the car. "You're not going to talk to anyone or touch a thing in this place. You have to follow whatever I say," she emphasized while nodding her head as if talking to a child. Silvester agreed but couldn't help but notice how strange this place is. Something feels off about it. "So this is where secret agents stay?" he wondered and she nodded. He turned to Harrison who was on his phone before uttering, "So, you're an agent too?" Without even looking at Silvester, he nodded his head. "You'll only be here for a couple of hours before the issue

    NOW everything is over, Dianne and Silvester are now living without worrying about death. But, it wasn't always so easy. When the public was informed of Dianne's reappearance, it was not taken lightly. Silvester had to represent her in court to fight for her freedom. It was difficult, but they managed to win. "Thank you." Her genuine appreciation made his heart feel at ease. This woman makes living fantastic despite the problems it installs. She makes his life filled with color and removes sorrows. Despite winning the case, some sacrifices needed to be made. Her company was taken away from her and there was nothing they could do. "I… Everything my parents have done is now in vain." Silvester was there throughout her struggles. Now, they need to start over. He felt nostalgic as he remembered the first time he met her again after so many years. He stumbled upon her with Rae, her then-boyfriend. Silvester and her did not end on great terms but seeing how drunk she was, all he could th

    Mr. Damos was in fury, how come she's already awake and now she's back in action? This was not according to plan as his hand continued to bleed out. "Shoot her!" His angry command did not bother her in the slightest. "Stand down," another woman's voice appeared from outside the room. Everyone was confused, but the elites' soldiers knew who it was. They lowered their guns as the woman emerged. It was no other than Addison Scott, the woman who was furious at Dianne Reeves, who is now on her side to stop the war. The two women stood side by side as both their power was stronger than Mr. Damos. He had no match as Dianne controlled the syndicate members, and Addison controlled the elites. "What is this?!" Mr. Damos was in disbelief, he couldn't move. He was cornered. Before he knew it, the syndicate members rose from the ground and made a path in the middle of the room for Dianne. Silvester couldn't take his eyes off of the woman he loves and so does his brother. The two of them ma

    SILVESTER was swimming in blood and drenched with sweat. With daggers in one hand and a gun in the other, the enemies are in shambles facing him with fear. They underestimated the supreme leader, and now, they're paying for the price. "Where is he?" he asked in a menacing and deep voice as he grabbed the man's collar with a gun pointed at his head. The man did not answer. Silvester sensed someone running beside them that he lifted the gun and shot the man. "Now, where the fuck is he?" He was running out of patience as he questioned the man in front of him again. "One…" he stated. "Two…" When the count reached three, Silvester pulled the trigger and the man dropped to the floor, dead. They have been in a constant battle in this building for the whole day. There were many floors and many men inside the building. With joined forces with different syndicate leaders, they were able to stop the men they had to fight from the elites. It was strange to find some syndicate men fighting the

    Every step he takes, the anxiety inside him increases. The door to where Dianne was staying was only a few feet away but he wanted to backtrack. Kronos did not give him any context and just led him here which scared him. "You can enter," Kronos said in a low tone and Silvester gulped. Silvester grabbed the door handle and gripped it tightly. He kept praying to God that she was alright before finally opening the door and seeing her on the hospital bed, sleeping. He clenched his jaw and slowly got closer. "What's her condition?" he asked the doctor. "Her body is exhausted. However, she is showing signs that she is recovering. We will examine and do checks on her every so often," he explained and Silvester nodded his head. He asked the doctor and guards to leave the two of them alone and so they did. Silvester grabbed a chair and placed it next to her bed. He deeply sighed before sitting down as he stared at her. She was pale as a ghost and cold as ice when he touched her hand to

    "FUCK!" RAE was bitten and kicked so that his hand loosened the grip on Eva. She turned around and jolted in his direction as she tried grabbing the gun. "Why even do this?" he asked in confusion but she did not answer. She kicked his stomach but he held her foot in place. The two looked at each other for a moment before Rae smirked evilly and pulled her foot. She fell to the ground before he bent down and apprehended her hands while the gun was pointed at her head. "We have your family, remember?" Rae asked, knowing they are in Silvester's mansion. Eva's laughter of disappointment rhymed along with the waves of thunder. "His fucking dad got them, you idiots!" she screamed in anger as she remembered what happened that day. She was hiding from the syndicate when Mr. Damos was the one who was the first to find her. The following morning, he instructed her to walk in the streets until Rae got a hold of her. It wasn't a coincidence that they met that day, it was set up. She was forced

    Mr. Damos turned over and was in fury upon seeing more than a dozen soldiers behind Silvester stop the ceremony. His anger was very evident but he laughed loudly. "Pardon him, he's very much in envy of this union. Please, continue the ceremony," Mr. Damos announced to force the ceremony to continue but Silvester started walking down the aisle. Rae, who was Kronos' best man, almost shouted in relief when they arrived. "Mr. Damos, our father, is the traitor," Silvester uttered while staring at Kronos who was nodding his head. The syndicate members gasped. Both current and old leaders were there to witness the wedding and they were in disbelief. Mr. Damos' anxiety grew within him as he thought of a way to turn the situation away. "Nonsense! My loyalty lies to the syndicate!" he shouted with nervous laughter as his eyes panned at everyone in the forest. The loud gushes of wind blew within them and there was silence. "This is ridiculous!" "Detain him." A single command by the supreme l

    "MAYBE he loves me?" Dianne was deep in her thoughts as she watched the rain pour down and stain the glass that shields her from getting wet. Watching the pouring rain while listening to a podcast while thinking of the man that confuses her heart, she sighed in both relaxation and annoyance. Her memory is useless, she wants to know what their relationship was but no matter how hard she thought of it, she simply can't remember. "Fuck!" she screamed as she got up from her seat and closed the television. The only way to find out is if she confronts him. She walked to the door and opened it, only to be blocked by the guards. Her dead stare was like the devil pulling you into hell. "The supreme leader summons me," she whispered like a threat. They surprisingly moved away to let her do as she wished. She almost lost her character for a moment. Dianne cleared her throat before putting on her mask and glasses and closing the door behind her. When she was far away from the guards, she gigg

    A HORRIFYING scene of Silvester's mother with blood all over her body chasing him down made him jump from his seat with sweat running down his face. He looked at his surroundings in worry but found Dianne on the couch staring at him confusedly. "I thought your wounds hurt," she pointed out while looking at his abdomen. He blinked a couple of times before clenching his wounds and falling to the ground, "Oww," he exaggerated. "Are you okay? Looked like you were having a bad dream," she murmured before her gaze turned to the TV in front of them. Silvester glanced behind his back and hit the couch after getting scared of the zombie on the screen. "Jesus Christ!" he screamed before holding his heart. Dianne laughed at his reaction and he sighed, now knowing why he suddenly had a nightmare. He fell asleep on her shoulder earlier and was not aware of what she was doing. He was surprised that she stayed. He thought she would have left already but she did not. There's progression to th

    Rae stared at Dianne and blatantly told her no. "But!" He shook his head. He might get in trouble if she sneaks out and he does not want to be responsible for it. She was displeased by his response. Dianne stopped talking with him and he was told to get lost. He sighed heavily while staring at a glaring Dianne. He's glad to see her safe and still sassy. "Why do you want to sneak out anyway?" he asked with suspicion about what this woman is up to. Dianne blinks, even though she has no clue why she would want to see Silvester, the reason she wants to sneak out and disobey Kronos. She groaned in frustration before sitting down. "Just 'cause!" She tried reasoning which he found laughable. He crossed his arms with a smirk before uttering, "I'm not taking you if you don't tell me." She did not say anything. He walked to the door and grabbed the handle. "Okay then," he teasingly said before opening it slightly. Dianne groaned as she shouted, "Wait!" He smiled lightly, predicting her acti
