The ride back home was very quiet yet doesn't feel uncomfortable. It was a good silence yet something was tugging my heart. It gives me a weird feeling. I think about Val's confession again and my determination. My effort of coming this far. I can't give up especially when things have gone this far. Now, there is no turning back. He says he loves me since college but how did that feeling even bloom? His confession is making things more complicated than it should. For me, this is not the time for any love relationship yet I can't seem to put his confession aside.

Dex was resting beside me after taking care of all the corpses with the cleaner and also finishing the paperwork for the furniture compensation along with bribing the people around to keep a silent mouth. I look towards Dex as I saw his lips bruised and his knuckle black and blue, this must be when he was fighting Jaxon and his men. I brush my hand over his knuckle slowly as I saw him flinch at the contact. I softly

    I told Vanessa about Val's confession to me and all the things that have been going on throughout my head about my relationship with Val now that we've followed a different path. We're basically enemies and some more I can't have any sort of attachment to him in order to accomplish my revenge. I was conflicted with what was the right thing to choose. I love Val but I'm not sure if it's his kind of love. I've known him since college because he was my friend's friend. I knew Luna since we were in the same class, then I know Val through Luna who apparently also knows Val due to being in the same group during student gatherings. Since then we started hanging out but my love for him is more like a best friend or sibling love. " What does your heart say, Liliana? " Vanessa ask me, stopping my train of thought. " I don't know Nessa, I feel like I should go with my revenge since I don't have time to fall in love right now but I also can't ignore his words. Enemy or not he is V

    It was morning and now I'm getting ready to start the day. I wore blue jeans with a simple white crop top along with my favorite black leather jacket. Leaving my blazing hair down while I put on a simple natural makeup. Once I'm done, I wore my black combat boots ready to go out. But then, my charged phone light up, and a notification pop." Damn, I almost forget my phone." I said while walking over to my nightstand and pick up my phone to see a message saying, " Be down ASAP, u gotta go to meet with Mikael." It was from Tim and then another ding comes. This time Vanessa text me, " It's time girl, go down to the main hall that's located in the B wing corridor 15. Mikael and the rest are waiting. Don't let them wait too long or it'll be trouble. " I squeal at the news remembering that it's time to get my people then I text back at Vannesa saying "I'm ready, on the way down". I'm finally getting my own man. I go out of my room to rush down to start my long-waited recruiting.Now

    As I arrived at the hall, I stood a couple of seconds in front of the door before entering. The moment I step in, everyone's eyes were on me. Dexter, Mikael, Tim, Vanessa along with Mark and their division's members. There was a large circle table laced with luxurious accessories such as burgundy red table cloth with golds dangling down, a large and exquisite vase filled with red and black roses. The hall was lighted up by a beautiful golden chandelier. 5 chairs were surrounding the table but one was empty. The members all seated behind their leader leaving Vanessa behind a single empty chair. I sat down there, on a spot beside Mikael which 'coincidently' was empty. I squirt my eyes in suspicion but then brush it off as I seat and thus the meeting begins. "Now that everyone is here, we shall start the meeting. Today is the first day for Liliana Terrance to join our meeting with an official title of a Queen. The position that has been vacant for so long is fulfilled by our bi

    They stay silent as they listen to my story, not even stopping to drink their coffee. "I was scared but my curiosity got the best of me. Also, it would be nice if we could find his weakness and story. If we get to know him more, we could find an opening to attack. It could be our major advantage when we rise, as Shallow Rail. You're not planning to stay and act loyal to him forever right? We have to move sooner or later. My plan is to move in 2 or at most 3 years. After I established my division, combined with your's and Mark's division, we would have plenty enough. With that, if we could have a relationship with another lower or newbie gang, we could increase our group's strength. Or maybe we could look for people on the streets that can join us or maybe if we're lucky, we find kids that can be trained from small. Before y'all protest, I'm not saying we force them, it's just a proposal." I finished as they just nod their head in silence and finally took a sip of their drinks, as do

    About a hundred people break out in an all-out war. Some have collapsed on the ground panting with a black and blue face, come even passed out, not even one was unscathed with a scar or bloody mouth and fist. I look at the clock showing 6.30 pm, there is still time. He didn't say any time specifically so it's up to me to decide when our tonight meeting is. After around 15 to 20 minutes, around 20 to 25 people were left. Seems like most of these girls come unprepared seeing how fast a hundred goes down to twenties. Much to my surprised, Shelia is still standing there fighting her guts out. Quite admirable seeing how plain she looks. But with this, she can fit that role perfectly. Another one that catch my interest was the duo twin that fights while backing each other up. Nice tactic, and such a coincidence for me to gain twins. But my interest comes for later when the last 10 was left. When I was too focused on my mind, I didn't realize that the rumble was over. There i

    My face goes beet red in the realization that I've been staring too long. I turned around and said," C-Can you put on something. You know I'm coming tonight and yet you're like that. Aren't you embarrassed?" But he just chuckled in reply and goes behind me and back hugged me while closing the door. I squealed in surprise as he suddenly hugged me and raise me above the ground then sits me down on his lap while he sits on the bed. "What the fuck are you doing right now?! Let me go!" instead of complying with my demand, he puts his head on the crook of my neck as he tightens his hugs. I can feel the heat of his skin from my back and its wetness from the shower where he didn't dry it properly. My body tighten up as his breath touched my neck, it was warm yet arousing. I'd be lying if I say I hate it but I'm sane enough to stick to what I'm coming here for. As I was about to open my mouth in protest he cuts me and shush me as he said in a husky and whisper voice, " Do me a favor

    I go back to my room feeling shocked. I understand that my brother did something wrong but I never thought that he was a murderer. I can't bring myself, who had a lot of expectation and respect for my brother to believe that he was that heartless. Even among all the hate words that I sprout out, I still have an ounce of respect for him, I still had hope that there was some good left in him. But, hearing that he murmured someone and insult the dead especially the one who have gone through up and down with him. He disappoints his best friend like that and still acts all high and mighty without any guilt disgust me. It makes my hatred goes deeper than before. I hate him, yet what is this feeling? The pang in my chest and the tears that swelled in my eyes. It hurts.I sit down on the bed and ponders about my feeling. I can't justify anything at the moment, not my feeling, not my mind, everything is a mess. I made it this far thinking that my determination is solid and unshakable.

    After Vanessa finish sharing her information, she sits down beside me and I got up. I walk around the table to go towards the large window that shows you a beautiful display of the city. It's bustling and people going in and out of the main building and the shop around, people walking across the street also the glimmering light from the building glass reflection. Everyone stays silent, seeming to slowly process their newfound information, "What do you think of those who rebel and betray me? Will you kill me if someone other than me tells you to? I'm in for picking ELICO but if any of you have a valid reason to oppose, I'm all ear for it." No one makes a sound, the room was so quiet as if a mosquito buzz could be heard clearly. After a good minute of silence, someone clears their throat and speaks, "Umm, I'm not sure what do you mean by that but as who we are now, we're no longer just anyone. We're here to sign up not for the gang but for you. I don't know if some think

    I woke up feeling comfy and cool but it was too quiet and there was a smell of lavender which was strange since I have pets in my room. I felt my eyelids heavy and my mouth dry but despite that, I tried to open my eyes and move my body which feels as stiff as a stick. With all the effort my body can exert I finally manage to open my eyes, it was an unfamiliar room that seemed like it belong to guys, the monochrome and classy yet masculine vibe. The room was filled with black colour and the dim light from the lamp with a surprisingly cute air purifier shaped like a cat with golden ears. It's as if that air purifier doesn't fit with the overall design of the room. I look around and see no one was there but it's weird since if I got home drunk, Alice is there, sober enough to bring me back to my room safely. Just when I was drowning in my thought, the door slowly opened. It's as if whoever is opening the door wanted it to be as quiet as possible in order to not disturb anyone who's in t

    I froze and thought, 'Oh shit, why does the topic go there? but if I suddenly change, I'm fucked.' So the only thing I could think of was just to laugh it off and act like he was making a joke. "Omg Kev, what do you mean mafia. Do they even exist nowadays? The government and the police force are now backed up with tons of technology. Those crime organisations are now playing the invisible games. We don't see them nowadays. Are you drunk on action movies?" I said as I sip my mojito. He stayed silent as if he was still suspicious but then he sigh and put his hand on my waist pulling me closer. "Lily, don't say that. Are you being threatened to work there? Don't tell me you were forced to be a prostitute? are you scammed and get chased by the loan sharks? Dangers are always around. You might not know it but maybe the person you're working with is a dangerous organization and yes, those types of organizations you see in fictional novels and action movies exist even nowadays.

    I woke in a body fit burgundy red dress with a side cut on the side and I use a knife holster to store my throwing knives. I wear smoky red make-up with burgundy lips, leave my hair straight, and use my classic gold geometric earring and some sweet golden heels. I was about to take my black channel purse before a knock comes through my door. It was Vanessa and Alice. Alice was dressed in a black tight dress with cleavage exposed and a smoky brown look along with a tight high ponytail. "Let's go, boss. We're gonna be late. It's 11 pm now."I was feeling anxious and excited, looking forward to either the thrill of danger or the touching reunion. It's more likely the first one that happens but regardless, I can't seem to calm my heart down. Currently, we're on our way to the place they usually hang out, Acedia. That's the name of one of the most popular clubs in the ELICO district. By the name itself, it's a place that disregards status and ranks. A place to let your inner demon out, let

    I woke up with a rather unexplainable feeling yet it wasn't considered bad enough to ruin my morning. Today was finally the day, the time where I meet my target Kev Roman or Kevin Burrow. Never expect that we will have a reunion like this, truly. I take a slow, warm shower and filled my tub with woodland pine herb and mints bubble bath. I light up my white tea and sage scented candle to add a relaxing feel. Luna being a clingy bun she is, joined me in my bath. Seems like I've lost my privacy the moment I have this cat around. On the other hand, Yuki was not that intrigued by his curiosity, he mostly hang around the living room area. After finishing my bath, I dry myself and put on some make-up. I did some light natural make-up look and curled my hair. I finished up with a light pink matte and some gloss. After that, I go toward my closet and pull out two sets of outfits. There's a casual black tee with denim shorts and an oversize plaid shirt along with black classic c

    As I reached ELICO, I entered Mirage, our building name, and goes straight to the office. all of the members have assembled and Vanessa stood behind my seat with her documents ready. I sat right down and the meeting started. "We've found a big clue on Lost Eden, Our three target is Kevin Berrow, Freed Dilton, and Bryan Knell. We won't be going for all three instead our focus is Kevin Berrow. You can get his detail from Vanessa after this meeting but for now, we have to track his location. He's a lone wolf so he usually goes alone. But, there's a chance he's with Freed since Freed can be said as Kevin's babysitter. We don't have to worry about Bryan since he's just a plain psycho with pride as tall as Mount Everest. Different from the other two that have somewhat a relation Bryan is alone. We decide to leave that to Mark and Tim. If by chance Freed and Kevin are together, don't charge in, instead of retreat back and let me do a solo operation." But as I said those Alice abrup

    The meeting has been concluded and we're all getting up to leave. But seeing that there was three prey we needed to hunt I called out to Tim and Dexter along with Mark. "Guys, Can we all talk for a while. I think this is something that's necessary." They all look at each other, confused about what I mean but then nod in agreement as they follow along.We go to Tim's office since it's the nearest to the Hall. We took our seats and then all eyes are on me. I sigh before I started talking. It was nerve-wracking to have all eyes on me even tho it was just three people. "Okay, it's been decided that we have three people to hunt but so far we don't have enough information on who we're hunting. There's a saying 'in order to defeat your enemy you must know your enemy' so-" I was cut off by Tim as he shockingly said"Wait wait, did you just quote Sun Tzu? For real?!" I was baffled at his words since Sun Tzu is a famous figure. Who didn't know him? "What's wrong with that? Who doesn't k

  • Grey's Rose   Three code

    I was shocked seeing their reaction since I thought they were just playing some crack code. I come in seeing them argue about it like a child as if they're just playing or joking around. But then the moment I cracked the code, their face turn pale due to shock at the same time their eyes lit in excitement. This must be a big lead since they look like a baby that finally got his candy after crying for decades. Tim immediately dives into a mountain of documents, he scrambles through his documents, shoving and throwing them around. When he finally found it we find three names which are Kevin Berrow, Freed Dilton, and Bryan Knell. These names don't sound familiar to me but then the moment they mention 'Lost Eden'. I somehow got the guise of it. These three must be someone that's crucial in finding whatever it is we need to find."Liliane, Go and call everyone to the meeting room, it starts in 30 minutes. Make sure everyone is there." Tim said as he once again buried himself

    Still on Mikael's PerspectiveHe was telling a lot of information after getting beaten up half dead but he never answer the basic question ask which is his name. "Alright, that's good for now-" I said as drop the bat down but then he cut me off, "How do you know I won't lie?" I stop on my track and scoff at him, it's so funny to think he would bring this question now out of all time. "Tell us your name." He stayed quiet for a while before telling me. "I'm Danny Lance. now answer me. How?"I looked at him for a good minute before answering him, " Do you think we're stupid? We have our own intel and from what you said it matches, logically thinking your words won't be a lie unless you completely fanaticize your answer." after hearing my words, the baffled look on his face gives me an extra bit of satisfaction. "Good, now! one last question, Where's the money, Danny?" I continued.He flinches at my question but I don't give a fuck at this point because this que

    Mikael's Point of View,I was panting while being held back by Wuying. I shrugged him off as he was put back on his chair. I was filled with rage as he insult not only me but my country. In terms of mafia life, our country's origin represents who we are as an entity, that's why each mafia will harbor at least one or two of its country's culture as a worm of identity. With him insulting my country is the same as insulting my whole organization. I walk towards him as I bend down and hold his bruised face. "You fuckin bitch! Don't mess with me fucker. Tell us what you know or you'll wish I kill you right now."He chuckled at my threat as he spits his blood out and said, "Why? you're going to use that invisible torture thing? Do you think I'm afraid? You need me in order to find out who's behind this and you also need me to crack that code you found on the safe. Why do you think it's this easy to find the clue?
