Foxy And Her Guardian 129: The Final Round (3)
“Ah, as fierce as remembered you, Puppet. Dante kept you at bay. You were a good boy then, a crazy one, but still a good one. Now, look at you, pointing a gun at me.” Felix’s words burned through Ethan, who bared his teeth. “Dante knew how to handle a boy like you, Levi doesn’t have what Dante had.” Felix chuckled and sighed dramatically before he got on his feet. He glanced at Benji over the bed, “But, that doesn’t mean I miss that bastard.” Felix smirked, “I am glad he died. He was impossible to deal with, you should know that better than me. You dealt with that asshole on a more personal level,” Felix slyly spoke, while glancing Ethan up and down. Ethan has been through a lot in his life. He met a lot of jerks, but Felix has always topped that list. Felix never put his hand on Ethan nor did he ever try to take advantage of him, not at least physically. But there has always been something very unsettling about this fellow that fret Ethan. He often told Dante not to trust Felix, to

Noel was softly groaning in pain. He was trying hard to stay awake, but Faith and Levi could see that they were slowly losing consciousness. Levi was driving the jeep with his gun resting on his lap, while Faith sat on the back with Noel’s head on her lap. She also had a gun in her hand. They have gotten very close to the village, and they haven’t run into more trouble. They did meet a few of the guards along the way, but they were all Mateo and Kai’s men. They asked Levi if he needed their help, but Levi declined. He doesn’t trust anyone now. They could be with enemies. It would be better if they didn’t come with him. “How is he doing?” Levi asked, glancing through the rearview mirror at Faith. Noel’s blood had already spread through the seat. She was holding a towel against the bullet wound, which was now soaked in his blood. Her hands were covered with it as well, and there was a little bit of it on her shirt. She gulped worriedly and met his eyes through the mirror, “Not good,”

“You are bleeding,” Benji told Piper. This was the third time in a row that he said that to his sister, and each time the concern in his voice grows. He had trouble looking directly at her wound, but he kept glancing at her as she drove through the dark roads. Her heart was pounding in her chest, as she was scared that someone was going to attack them. She wouldn’t have felt this way if it was just her, but now she had her brother with her. She knows that she will not be able to protect him and herself alone when she is already injured. “I am fine, buddy. We are going to the hospital. We can get it checked there. It’s fine. Just don’t look at it.” She softly chuckled. She was trying to keep him calm. It was a wonder how he didn’t get a panic attack after Felix tied him like that. Maybe he was still processing everything that happened. She glanced at Benji, who gulped and nervously nodded his head. He lowered his gaze before he tightly closed his eyes and held onto the seat tightly.
Foxy And Her Guardian 132: The Final Round (6)
Kai couldn’t believe his eyes. His brother. His own twin was standing with a gun over his head. The idea of his brother being his enemy petrifies him. He already lost his sister to this world of crime, and now Dario. He was the only one Kai has who was willing to stay away from this world, and now here Dario is wanting to kill his own brother, the one he always cared for. Kai squinted his eyes, thinking of any possibility that this man is not Dario. “Dario, how can do this?” Kai muttered. The will to fight just left his body, leaving a very disoriented man. Dario/Jeremy chuckled humorlessly, “You are one person I thought would understand.” He shook his head, “You have lost so much in your life and you are still asking me this question? I am disappointed, Kai.” He clicked his tongue. “Anyway, since you don’t care, I should waste my time explaining anything to you. My motive is simple, end this all.” He gritted his teeth. “This all needs to end. Everyone who can carry Ricci and Bianchi
Foxy And Her Guardian 133: The Final Round (Who Was Karina?)
(Before) (When Faith went to meet the elders)Faith couldn’t comprehend what this old lady just told her. She sat on the floor, beside the fireplace. A soft fire crackled beside her while she held a clay cup with herbal tea in it. The woman, who told Faith that her name is Dika, sat on her rocking chair. That chair was the only piece of furniture in the room. Other than that there was only a handmade rug on the floor on which Faith sat. Dika insisted she tries her herbal tea. Faith was hesitant to accept it, but the old lady made one for Faith and one for herself anyway. The two women were yet to converse. Faith has been so stunned to hear that her biological mother was Dika’s granddaughter, which makes her Dika’s great-granddaughter. She could process it. She wonders how many lies she has been living since. “I know you are surprised, my child,” Dika said. There was an accent in her words. Anyone could tell just by listening to her that she doesn’t speak English as her first language
Foxy And Her Guardian 134: The Final Round (The Truth About Karina)
(Flashback to Dika and Faith’s Meeting)“I never liked Aldo. She deceived my daughter and started a family back in the city, But still, I don’t think he is the one that killed Karina.” Dika spoke out her fears. “I didn’t know much that happened between him and Karina, but from what she used to tell me – she was happy with him. He was keeping her very happy. She once wrote to me and in that letter, she said that she trusts Aldo and that he treats her so well. I still have those letters,” Dika added. Faith felt conflicted. She doesn’t know how to react. She was still trying to process that her mother wasn’t just Aldo’s mistress as she was told. She was married to Aldo. Faith held the pictures in her hands as evidence. Her mind went to Aurora Ricci, Mateo’s mother. She looked at Dika, “Dika, have you ever met Aurora?” She asked. Dika heaved a sigh, “Briefly, only once. That too a long time ago, even before Karina and Aldo got married. She seemed like a decent lady, a little proud, but
Foxy And Her Guardian 135: The Final Round (Family)
Faith didn’t know how to feel. She was conflicted. Her mind wasn’t working. She doesn’t know whom to believe and whom to not. She pressed her lips thinly and looked at Mateo. Even in this graving situation, she couldn’t read that man. He looked concerned because of the gun that was pointed at her by Jeremy, but she couldn’t understand if Mateo already knew about everything Jeremy just said. Where else, Kai was a different story. He looked close to tears. Faith couldn’t tell if it was because of what Jeremy just said, or if it was because of Jeremy himself. Faith knows that Kai doesn’t want to lose his brother. He already lost almost all his family. Faith gulped, “Why am I too blamed for this?” She wanted this to end. She already had enough of all this. She wanted everyone to live. She was here to protect Mateo and Kai, but she also doesn’t want to hurt Jeremy. Even when Jeremy was glaring at her with his gun pointed at her, she knows he hated this all just as much as she does. She do
Foxy And Her Guardian 136: The Final Round (On The Run)
“Where are we going to find Jeremy?” Faith asked Mateo, as the two of them were sitting still on a big rock near a hollow steep. They had their eyes on the ocean that shone under the setting sun. They weren’t looking at each other. A lot changed in a matter of minutes between them. They are not addressing them now. They both are completely drained. “I don’t know,” Mateo muttered. Faith looked at her interestingly. He is the man who always has an answer but now here he sat beside her with no clear answer to give. She looked at him closely. The man hasn’t slept. He hasn’t eaten. He looks tired, but not just physically. He is just as mentally drained as physically. He felt her eyes on him. He turned his head to look at her. She had a small scar on the top of her eyebrow. He clicked his tongue and brought his hand to her eyebrow. He traced his dirty thumb under the scar, making sure he doesn’t touch the open wound, “You got hurt.”She faintly chuckled, “Look who is talking.” She shook he

Foxy And Her Guardian (END) Epilogue (Part 2)
A good day came months after. The people of the village finally got their freedom. When that happened, week-long celebrations were held at the village, and all of them were invited, especially, Faith, Mateo, and Kai. It was a joyous occasion. Even when everyone was dreading back where they all spend the worst days of their lives, of course, they went anyway. Hesitant at first, everyone had a great time. Faith had never seen the people of the village have such a festive spirit. It was truly a beautiful week. Faith spends most of her time with her grandmother, Kami, and his family. Benji didn’t want to go with them, but when Kami asked – he couldn’t say no. Lora (Kami’s sister) was there to welcome everyone. Everyone could see how excited Benji got when he saw her. Piper and Kai exchanged a knowing glance. Benji has a crush on Lora. He had it since he came here for the first time. After he returned to the city, he kept in contact with her in one way or another. Faith was happy to see
Foxy And Her Guardian Epilogue (1/2)
(One Year Later)Even today when Faith closes her eyes and thinks about her recent past, she can’t truly process it. She can’t believe that so much changed in the past couple of years. From losing her entire family to almost getting killed to find a new family – a new purpose – everything in her life was nothing less than a lesson – a brutal and painful lesson. Currently, she was sitting in a meeting along with Kai and Mateo – but they weren’t the only ones there. The three of them were hosts, while the other distant members of the Ricci and Bianchi clan, a few mafia leaders, and a couple of correspondents from the village were in the room. The debate was on – whether the village/island should be given its independence or not.Faith was sitting in between Kai and Mateo. She averted her gaze to the other side of the room where Kami sat along with a few young faces representing the village. Faith could tell that the young boy was nervous. She shoots him an assuring smile. Kami smiled ba
Foxy And Her Guardian 158: The Drunken Troublemakers
Kai didn’t say anything in return. He just impassively stared at Mateo before they were interrupted by Faith and Piper’s loud laughter. Both looked at the girls to find that Ethan had managed to pull Levi into the pool. He grabbed Levi’s ankle and pulled him in, making the water splash around and the girls laugh. Mateo heaved a sigh and shook his head as he watched his friend emerge from under the water, not looking much impressed. Noel was standing behind Levi when Ethan pulled him in, he was now watching them two. Ethan laughed and splashed some water towards him with his hand, “What are you doing up there loser? Get in!” Noel shook his head, “No, and you need to come out too.” He looks at all of them, “You all do. It is chilly and the water is cold,” he added. “It is not that cold,” Piper replied. It was because Kai switch on the heater to warm up the water, but that’s mean it was okay to be in a pool on a chilly night under the sky. Just at that moment, Piper sneezed. That was i
Foxy And Her Guardian 157: More Like A Family
Faith and Piper were wasted. If having one drink after another wasn’t enough, they were now drinking straight out of the bottle. “We should go swimming,” Faith slurred a suggestion to which Piper enthusiastically nodded her head, agreeing to it. Before anyone could stop them, an equally drunk Ethan got on his feet and threw his fist in the air, “Hell yeah! Let’s go!!” he yelled out and hooted. Everyone else was so concerned about Faith and Piper that they didn’t even notice just how much Ethan was drinking. These three were completely wasted. Noel was slightly tipsy. Where else, Levi, Mateo, and Kai only had a single drink so they weren’t drunk at all. They decided to stay sober to keep an eye on girls, and well – now Ethan as well. “Excellent,” Levi muttered under his breath and pinched the bridge of his nose. He moved to Ethan, who was swinging from one side to another with a bottle of one of the most expensive whiskeys in his hand. Kai glanced at the bottle in his hand. He didn’t
Foxy And Her Guardian 156: Let's Celebrate!
Faith was in her room, changing with there was a knock on her door. Her room was now filled with done and undone boxes. She will be moving out tomorrow and there is so much left to do. But currently, she wasn’t focused on it. She is certain that she will be able to pack before the movers arrive. She was concerned about the dinner party they were having tonight. Faith had already invited everyone and now she was changing for the night. By the knock on the door, she was certain that Mateo has arrived. She quickly picked up the clothes she threw on the floor and put them on the bed before she spoke, “Yes?” The door opened and indeed it was Mateo. He looked good. Fresh and well-rested. It took everyone over a month to get over what happened on the island. The exhaustion and trauma (for some) didn’t leave for days. Mateo was looking like he did when Faith first met him. The difference between then and now is that then he had a hard scowl on his face, and now he was smiling. Then he threw
Foxy And Her Guardian 155: Anything For Piper
“Are you all packed up?” Piper asked Faith who came to her room to visit. Faith looked at Piper and smiled. “Yes, almost. Just a few things are remaining to be packed,” she replied. In two days, Faith is moving in with Mateo. For the past week, she has been very busy. She didn’t realize how comfortable she has gotten at Kai’s place, that now that she was winding everything up here, she feels sad to be leaving. When she started packing, she was excited. For her, moving in with Mateo is like a new chapter of her life, but as she proceeded, she realized how uncomfortable yet relieving it is to end this brief, daunting, and challenging chapter of her life. Piper was sitting on the bed, reading, when Faith knocked on her door. She exhaled and smiled broadly at her, “So, are you excited?” She asked. Faith chuckled and sat on the bed beside her, “I am.” She nodded her head, “But I am also nervous. There are so many ifs and buts in my head that I can hardly sleep at night,” she replied hon
Foxy And Her Guardian 154: The Good News
“Thank you,” Piper hugged and thanked Faith, before she looked at Mateo, “Thank you both of you. I don’t know what would have happened if it wasn’t for you two. I would have been living on the streets,” she added. “Hey!” “What the hell?” Levi and Kai spoke at the same time. Piper pulled her eyebrows together and looked at both of them. Kai was frowning while Levi stepped forward, “What do you mean you would have been on the streets? Are you kidding me? I would have never let you be on street. Damn, I thought you thought of me as a friend, but boy was I wrong.” Levi scoffed. Where Kai just watched her dumbfounded. She softly chuckled at Levi. “Oh, I would have never bothered you. You already got your hands full,” she told him bobbing her head towards Benji’s room. The door of Benji’s room was open and inside everyone can see Benji and Ethan playing video games. They were so engrossed by what they were playing that they didn’t even notice the people outside looking at them. Ethan and
Foxy And Her Guardian 153: The Crazy Ones
Kai squinted his eyes. When he was coming out of Piper’s room, he did not expect Faith, Mateo, and Benji right outside – watching him walk out of the room. Their curious gazes made him feel like he was sneaking out of her room after a one-night stand. Mateo was shamelessly smirking at him. Faith was curiously watching him, and Benji had his eyes narrowed at him. Kai cleared his throat and ignored Mateo’s comment and Faith’s question. He was about to tell them that they shouldn’t be so nosy when the doorbell rang. Faith and Mateo pulled their eyebrows together and looked at each other, “Who is here so early in the morning?” She muttered and watched as one of the helpers opened the door. It was Levi and Ethan. “What are you two doing here so early?” Mateo asked with his eyebrows knitted together. Levi didn’t look good. He looked like he didn’t sleep all night. Ethan looked tired as well, but not as exhausted as Levi. Levi glared at Ethan at Mateo’s question. Levi heaved a sigh. His sh
Foxy And Her Guardian 152: Back Together
Kai has been inside Piper’s room for an hour. He was now sitting on the floor while she was sitting on the floor as well but she sat by the window. She was watching outside the window while her knees pressed to her chest and her arms wrapped around them. While her eyes were fixed outside, Kai’s eyes were fixed on her. They have been talking for the last hour. No yelling or name was calling. There were no accusations, nor did they completely patch up – they were just talking, which was due for some time now. They fight. They have had sex. They have done everything, but they never get the chance to sit and just talk about themselves. About their insecurities, about their feelings, about everything they bring to each other. Piper last put forward a very interesting point, “Aren’t we toxic for each other? There is just too much we don’t agree on.” She had muttered. Her point was quite simple. She told him that even if Jeremy hadn’t attacked her or anyone else, and even if he was just try
