Favorite Crime 25: Warm Company
It was like a little girl just ran away from home in the middle of winter with no place to go. There were no prepared things that she brought as she went as far as she could away from her family who had always done nothing but mentally torment her. She had no money to buy food or to check in at a cheap one-star motel. She had literally nothing but herself.The blonde was already far away from the restaurant where everyone was and she did not know where she currently was as she just wanted to get away from them as far as possible. She regretted wearing an off-shoulder cocktail dress without bringing a jacket or anything to cover herself from the cold night breeze. She thought about how she looked absolutely pathetic at that moment by how she was dressed in designer clothes and wearing expensive makeup yet she was currently walking on the streets with nowhere to go.It was not like she could go back to her condo unit when she literally lived together with Theodore, who was one of the pe
Favorite Crime 26: Back to The Start
Five minutes had flown and the blonde was still blushing. It was a good thing that the green-haired woman was not able to face her otherwise she would have seen the effect that she was giving her because of their current situation. Not only was she worried about her red cheeks but she was also worried that the latter might actually hear how loud her heart was currently beating.The thing was that, Dakota did know. She could feel how the woman on her back had her heart beating fast, though she decided to not mention it for the dignity of the latter.“Are you sure I’m not heavy?” Olivia asked.“Jesus, Liv. That’s like the tenth time you’ve asked me that,” Dakota responded as she let out a sigh before continuing in a serious tone, “You are light as hell, alright? I swear to God, I’ll drop you right here on the ground if you ask me that one more time.”“So, I am actually heavy? I mean, you just said you’ll drop me if I don’t ask again which means that responding to me while carrying me on
Favorite Crime 27: Unusual Feelings
Potatoes are the best. It could beat every dish made by gourmets.Olivia actually enjoyed eating more with Dakota at the potato restaurant than with Theodore at the five-star restaurant from a couple of days ago. Because of that, she regretted avoiding going to that street for almost her entire life.The two women got up from their table as soon as they were done eating as they were about to leave when the owner of the restaurant stopped them from leaving. The blonde stood there as she watched her pull the green-haired woman’s sleeve to the side.“So, is that her?” Hilary whispered to Dakota’s ear, not wanting the blonde to hear what they were talking about.“Yes, it’s her. But don’t bring it up in front of her,” Dakota replied with a poker face. “Don’t pretend like you know her too.”“Oh, seriously? How can I when you literally talk about her like—” The owner was not able to finish her sentence when the gangster abruptly placed her hand on her mouth.Olivia raised an eyebrow and felt
Favorite Crime 28: Dead Fire
It was Friday, and also a day-off for Olivia.Fortunately, Theodore still had to go to work so the blonde basically had the entire condo unit for herself. Her boyfriend wanted to skip work for the day and have another round with her when he woke up earlier in the morning because of his excitement from the blonde’s first initiation last night, but the blonde insisted and insisted until he gave up and eventually left to work. If not for her frustration on Dakota last night, Olivia would not have had sex with him.It was basically a lazy day. Olivia neither had any hobbies to waste her time on nor any friends to hang out with. She never kept in touch with Ashleigh, Mia, and Lana or anyone she knew in high school as soon as she moved to the UK with Theodore—which was why she had no friends in Flyve City anymore. Though the blonde did not have any regrets on ghosting them since she had always known that they only became her friend for their reputation and the power to bully anyone.While l
Favorite Crime 29: Business
People eventually forgot about the little scene that the middle-aged woman caused at the counter earlier, fortunately. Though that did not mean that some of the people would stop throwing secret glances on the green-haired woman.Olivia let out a silent sigh as she slightly furrowed her eyebrows when she noticed how some of the people were either giggling or looking terrified while looking at the woman who was scrolling on her phone right across her.“So…” Dakota immediately lifted her gaze from the screen of her phone. “What are you doing here in the mall?”“For some business,” she simply answered as she slipped her phone back in her pocket.The blonde nodded in response, not wanting to be nosy about it. The memory of meeting Leo earlier kept reappearing in her mind as she thought of telling the woman across her about it though she was having hesitations about it for some reason. Dakota had never talked to her about Lia and Leo, so she could not completely confirm that they were in t
Favorite Crime 30: Shot Heart
Thinking about Olivia stopped being Dakota’s full-time job ever since she got out of juvenile detention center—it only became a part-time job now as she had plenty of things to handle for her gang.A week had passed since the green-haired woman saw the blonde though she did not really notice it because of how busy she had been in handling her businesses. One of the members of her gang ending up as a traitor in exchange of money made them busier than ever as they had to trace every person that he had been in contact with in case he spilled the information about their drug business to people other than the boss of Blood Trouble, which was the second most powerful gang in Flyve City and Dead Soul’s main rival.After receiving a call from Ruby, Dakota did not waste any time as she immediately told Knives to come with her to the location that her rival gave for them to meet up. Since they would surely be talking about drugs, it was already expected that they would be going to a place that
Favorite Crime 31: Poisoned Apple
The two scariest women in the country stood across each other with completely different expressions on their faces. It was like how the gloomiest person that resembles the dark night finally meets the brightest person that resembles the shining sun.“You tricked us,” Dakota spoke, ignoring what the latter had just said.“Not really. I know you wouldn’t die anyway.” Ruby let out a chortle.The green-haired woman internally rolled her eyes as she returned her gun back in her blazer. “So, what do you want? Don’t tell me you just called us here to try to kill us?”“What if that’s right?” The green-eyed woman playfully smirked as she stepped closer to the latter and dusted her blazer before resting her hands on the taller woman’s broad shoulders.“Just tell me what you want.”Ruby let out a chuckle in amusement at how short her rival’s patience was, and she loved it—she loved the fact that she was literally annoying her.Dakota just calmly stood still on her place even while Ruby was cares
Favorite Crime 32: In Life
The sound of the elevator arriving to the desired floor rang as the two women blankly stared at the steel door, waiting for it to open. The fancy lights greeted them as they stepped out to the lobby where plenty of people were roaming around in.Everything about the hotel screamed expensiveness as by the looks of it, one could guess that booking a hotel room for one night would undoubtedly cost more than 200 dollars. The polished cream tiles were shiny under the light that came from the big chandeliers on the ceiling. There were couches with the best material found in the country on the corner for guests to wait.All the hard work that Dakota had spent for the past years were worth it as she was able to build one of the biggest hotels in Flyve City. Keeping herself busy only for her gang business would be a bit risky so she decided to create a hotel business to cover up Dead Soul.One of Dakota’s men told her that someone who claimed to be important was waiting for her at the lobby wi

Favorite Crime Epilogue
In another place. In another fate. In another universe. Dakota wakes up on her squeaky single bed. It is another day to start the day. She gets up from her bed and heads straight to the bathroom to begin brushing her teeth. Her clothes that she will be using for the day is already prepared inside her small wooden closet. If only her room is only for herself, she would have bought a bigger closet. Dakota looks at herself on the mirror one last time once she is completely ready to leave. She runs her hand through her newly dyed orange hair and lets out a sigh, realizing what her new hair color means. A new hair color means a new chapter. And the new chapter in question is a new semester. Dakota walks out of the dormitory and joins the flock of students entering the university where she studies at. Her dream is just beginning as she stares at the huge logo of her university at the gate. “Hey! What time does your class start?” She looks at the person who suddenly appears next to her
Favorite Crime 60: Last I Love You
The venue that was filled with delightful laughter and loud music was now filled with screams of terror and gunshots. The sudden change was like parkour.It seemed that it was going to be the biggest war to occur in Flyve City as the two most powerful gangs all came to fight.“Dead Soul vs. Blood Trouble” was about to be included in the future history textbooks.Dakota pulled Olivia to hide behind a rectangular that was pushed down to serve as a barricade instead of a furniture to hold food. She would take a peek and shoot the enemies that she could see, while the blonde would use whatever object she finds near her to hit whoever tries to get close to them. They were being great teammates. It was no wonder they became partners in crime.“Fuck you,” the blonde hissed as she hit the man’s head with a silver pot as hard as she could which caused him to fall unconscious.Olivia was panting from the exertion as she stared at the man lying on the floor in his unconscious state. A body was s
Favorite Crime 59: Party Night
Just when the blonde thought that she was already completely falling into the void, the light came reaching out to grab her hand. Everything that happened all at once in one night was doing more to her than devastation that it was like each of them were throwing attacks on her until she ended up on the edge of a cliff—until she lost her balance and started to fall down to the never-ending hole with no one to catch her.Until she came to catch her.Olivia felt more than a hundred times better as she let herself totally fall into the taller woman’s embrace, wishing that the latter would just hold her and never let her go forever until she becomes okay again.The green-haired woman did not speak as she just hugged her tightly and gave her gentle pats on her back, letting the blonde cry as much as she wanted to. There was nothing that the gang boss could do but to just be there for her—because that was what Olivia only needed at that moment. Someone to hold her and make her realize that t
Favorite Crime 58: Living Nightmare
It all started on their sophomore year in high school. Theodore and his possessiveness of Olivia.They were already teenagers which meant that they were hitting puberty. The moment when hormones are developing to a new stage.“Give me your number.”Classes had just ended and they were all leaving school when a man with a man in junior year stopped the blonde from leaving. A smirk painted on his face as he shoved his smartphone toward the girl who absolutely no interest in the guy that was standing arrogantly in front of her.“Bold of you to assume I’d give you my number,” Olivia scoffed. She was about to walk past him when he moved to stop her again, making her roll her eyes. “I said, no.”“Oh? You’re being disrespectful to your senior.” He gasped, acting shocked at her response. “Girls like you need to be taught a lesson.”“What if I teach you a lesson?” Olivia threw a glare at him. She had to look up a bit because of their height difference.“In a kinky way?” His smirk grew wider as
Favorite Crime 57: Masks
A week passed by quickly since that day.Even though Dakota had always been softhearted to Olivia to the point that she could overlook every mistake she does, it was a first for the gang boss to stop being clingy for a while after a conflict.Dakota was speechless and shocked after finding out about how Olivia had to do things that she did not want to do for the sake of protecting her and their two friends. Dakota knew that Olivia was a changed person, but never did she imagine the blonde to be selfless for a decade just for her.The possibility of the two of them being in more danger by being together again made the gang boss suddenly snap back to reality. They were not the main characters in a love story with a happy ending, that was the fact. Dakota loved Olivia, but she was just realizing that it was wrong even though the thought of that hurt her a lot.The gang boss drove the blonde near the café that was near the hospital after finishing their lunch which happened quickly unlike
Favorite Crime 56: Marionette
Everything that happened seemed to be fast. It felt like the first day that the blonde started to date Theodore was yesterday. It felt like the day that Theodore first confessed his feelings for her was just two days ago. It felt like she was just suddenly brought to the future in a split second with how everything had not been done processing yet.The blonde stared at the orange soda in the glass that she was holding as she swirled it around, watching the bubbles produce because of the release of carbon dioxide from the soft drink. She was told to watch TV to kill time though she did not even bother turning it on. Her head was currently full that she could not bear to let more things enter her brain from the television which contained plenty of things.“Hey, are you okay?” Olivia looked up and saw the green-haired woman with a curious and concerned look on her face as she sat down next to her while placing their food on the table in front of them.“Yeah, I’m fine,” the blonde replied
Favorite Crime 55: Unexpected Surprise
There were plenty of eyes around especially as it was daytime and the place was literally close to the hospital. Because of that, it really had become more difficult to meet up even though they wanted to.But it was not like that would stop them.The blonde walked in the café with a blank face. She had a natural posture and a calm expression on her face as she went to order a cup of cappuccino at the counter. It was currently work hours so there were not much people in the café except for people who were either having their break time from work or were just jobless.Olivia gave the barista a brief smile as she thanked him for her coffee before walking to a vacant table that was on the corner of the room, far from the entrance. She took out her phone and sipped on her coffee as soon as she sat down.“Do you even ever get a drink other than cappuccino?” On the opposite side of the room was a green-haired woman in a black leather jacket seated at a table while facing her laptop with a cu
Favorite Crime 54: Unreciprocated Mutual
The blonde was in deep concentration, processing the documents that started to stack because of her absence for a week. She realized how taking leaves at work were not always fun because the happiness would only stay for a specific duration, and she would later be in hell that’s hotter than before once she goes back to work.Olivia did not even notice someone entering her office because of how busy she was with her eyes glue on the computer screen, switching from the device and to the documents that were on her desk. She nearly jumped from her seat in surprise when the person knocked on her desk, making her finally look up and acknowledge the person’s presence.“Oh, Theo,” Olivia uttered as she leaned back to her seat and took her cup of coffee to take a sip on it. It was a good thing that the latter came by to her office because that would mean that she had to stop working for a while, which means that that would be her only break. “What’s up?”“Why didn’t you tell me that you had a
Favorite Crime 53: Life Trade
What was more romantic than a dinner reservation in a fast-food restaurant with a neat table that was fixed with a candle and folded napkins? Homemade dinner that would be cooked together.The rest of the night together was supposed to be romantic with the two women cooking their dinner together at the gang boss’s home.But it was not as romantic as expected.“Am I supposed to cut them like this?” asked the blonde after struggling to have her third cut on a single piece of potato.“What does it look—oh god.” The green-haired woman pursed her lips in as she gently pushed the latter aside and took the knife from her. “You’re even holding it wrong.”“Oh! I was?” She could not believe that Olivia was genuinely shocked at her statement.“Yeah. It’s basic knowledge that knives are held by the handle and not the blade,” Dakota spoke with a smile on her face to not make things serious. “It’s okay. I’ll handle it here. Just go wash the lettuce.”“Roger.” Olivia then went to the sink to finish
