IN THE ARMS OF THE SNIPER EIGHTEEN
"Tom, long time no see. You look even more dashing than the last time I saw you." They hugged each other with sparkling faces that looked happy. Next to a man called Tom, stood a teenage boy in his late thirteen who had been silent all this time. “Of course, life at the camp is better now. I eat well and live decently there. You, how were you after your father died?” "Bad. Hahaha… so bad.” Tom saw his best friend burst into laughter instead of being sad because his father had just died two months ago. But that's Jacob's nature, he doesn't like to look sad in front of other people and always shows his tough side to everyone. “You seem to be very used to our bad life. By the way how is Mary, when are you going to marry her?” “Of course I'm very used to it, my father has also prepared this since I was very young. So I don't think my father's death had a very bad impact on my life. Oh, Mary is fine. She is preparing for our wedding next month. Come if you can, we canceled our intent

Brukk “Awww...” Calistha winced in pain as her ribs—which had just hit the marble floor in Luca's apartment, ached. Last night she fell asleep on Luca's living room sofa to wait for the man to come home, so this morning she must feel sick because she just fell from Luca's comfortable sofa. “My back… aww, I shouldn't be sleeping here. Oh, what time is it?” Calistha, who was still half asleep, started walking here and there to look for the clock on the wall in Luca's apartment. The atmosphere of the house that seemed weird made Calistha find it difficult to find the clock in the luxury apartment. She then decided to go to her room to wash her face to look fresher. However, the low beeping sound that came from the door made Calistha cancel her intention to go wash her face in her room. Someone out there just pressed the password button and will soon enter the house. "Luca?" Calistha frowned at the sound of a woman's voice coming from the door. Whereas previously she really hoped th

According to the agreement, Calistha decided to stay overnight at Luca's apartment with Aiden. Even though Aiden had rejected the offer many times and forced her to go home, Calistha persisted in staying until she got the full story about her father's past. During dinner, Luca was busy telling stories about how he first met Jacob. All of that happened about five years ago, when Jacob decided to set up a company on British soil, but the man felt unable to manage it himself. Then Luca comes as a british man who wants to apply for a job as a secretary to Jacob. "You've known my father that long? Why have we never met before?” Luca smiled a little at Calistha as he cut his steak calmly. Actually, he had always been watching Calistha from a distance, pretending to be someone else she didn't know so that she wouldn't notice his presence. Jacob is a man who is very protective of his daughter. It was a fact that Calistha had never realized all this time. So, Luca plays a spy whose job is to

Due to his bad condition, finally Aiden and Calistha left Luca last night to get some rest at doctor Albert's house. After all, Luca really had to rest his mind for a while before tomorrow he returned to struggling with his new-very disturbing problem. Finding one bad person who wants to kill him among thousands of bad people, of course is very difficult. Even Luca himself couldn't predict who was going to take his life because recently his allies had decreased a bit. Many rebellions took place in the cartel. And with the death of the Baron, the rebellion became more and more inevitable until it could trigger divisions inside the cartel itself. "So what are we going to do today?" “Our work has become more and more hard, your father's rhymes have not been completely solved, plus Luca and Emily's problems, we can't just trust them. Especially Emily, that woman is dangerous.” "Emily? So that's your reason why you didn't help her right away when the attack happened? I see you and Luca

“What should I say to the police? They asked us to give testimony at the office regarding last night's accident case," said Calistha panicked. After the doctor finished examining Aiden's head and said that the man had a mild concussion, two police officers came to him and asked for an explanation of their accident. But Calistha immediately dodged the two policemen with the excuse that Aiden still needed rest to recover his condition. In fact, Calistha was confused with herself. There were too many enemies targeting them out there, so she was afraid to step out of the Emerald Hospital which she thought was very safe. “Ask Luca to silence the cops, I don't want the case of last night's accident to be investigated because it will endanger us all. As long as we don't know who really wants our death, it's better if we remain silent and look like idiots who don't know anything. But now I suspect El Diablo is the mastermind behind last night's accident because I believe that the slogan bel

The two of them were now in a black sedan driven by a foreign man who Aiden himself did not know. However, when they came out of the hospital lobby door, the foreign man who claimed to be named Rocky immediately approached Aiden and provided strong evidence that the man was really a spy for President Moon who was assigned to help him. “El Diablo's position is currently at his base, so we'll have to wait until that guy goes to visit his girlfriend at the apartment… ah shit!” Rocky cursed while pressing the digital screen a few times that was beside the steering wheel. A message just arrived and sent a notification that El Diablo would not meet his girlfriend today at the Star Light City apartment, but at a luxurious restaurant located in the heart of the city. His position in the center of the city would make it difficult for Aiden to execute him because he would be in the midst of the civilian population. “El Diablo will meet his girlfriend in a Buenos Aires restaurant, you will fi

"Crying will never bring back what has happened, so shut up and think about the next steps to fix your messed up life."Calistha looks still very devastated by Rocky's death caused by her carelessness. Even though they never knew each other, she felt really, really bad for Rocky. If she could, she wanted to go back and take proper care of Rocky's body. As a form of guilt, she wants to give Rocky a proper funeral service. Unfortunately Aiden didn't allow her to do that and only focused on what they had to finish soon. There were still many tasks waiting for them ahead, including finding another bastard who wanted to kill Luca last night.When remembering Luca, for some reason Calistha's heart suddenly felt sinking. She seemed to be getting an extra burden because she had to think about the lives of other people who could get in trouble because of her existence. Life is unfair, when she feels happy because other people around her and supporting her, they just seem to have bad luck becau

Calistha bit her lip slowly while watching Aiden's calm face resting on his comfortable hospital blanket. After two hours of doctors examining him and stitching up the wounds on his face, Aiden was finally able to be transferred to a regular ward in an unconscious condition. Ten minutes ago Aiden had opened his eyes, muttered incoherently, then closed his eyes again peacefully. According to doctor, Aiden's condition is stable, and soon the man will open his eyes after the effects of the anesthetic wear off.“Huufftt… quickly wake up and be cynical in front of me again. Really, it's much better than me seeing you lying weak like this." Calistha whispered softly to the empty air around her.She then stood up and decided to go outside for a while. A little breath of fresh air in the hospital garden doesn't seem like a bad idea. Since then she was quite bored of being in Aiden's lonely treatment room. Moreover, she was only accompanied by the sound of a cardiograph, which had been so nois

The little boy was about ten years old. He walked hand in hand with his parents with happy faces radiating from both of them. This vacation became a vacation that little Aiden would never forget because his parents who were always busy were finally able to take their time to travel for three days on a trip to Jeju Island. When he saw such an amazing sight, Aiden occasionally whined at his mother to ask for a photo. Or if he saw an ice cream truck in the vicinity of a tourist spot, he would nag at his father to buy him an ice cream. Aiden's life at the age of ten is still running very normally like the lives of children in general. Nothing strange, and Aiden himself never had any inkling if his beautiful life would soon be snatched away by the irresponsible people around him. “Today we will have business trip to Bukchon temple.” Mrs. Lee guided her son patiently up the steps one by one that would lead them to the great temple in Bukchon village. Aiden looked enthusiastic as he climb

Calistha and Aiden immediately met resistance from the presidential security forces when they insisted on entering to meet President Moon. Aiden who saw all his men who now turned to attack him became furious. He was then forced to fight them one by one with Calistha who seemed really wanted to kill anyone who bravely had made her life so devastated like this. And the firefight was unavoidable, they were both forced to use violent means to break through the presidential security forces to meet the cunning president Moon. "There are only a few of them, but after this a company of presidential guards will definitely come," said Aiden while looking at his victims which were lying helplessly on the floor with blood pooling everywhere. Calistha who saw that just raised her eyebrows briefly and didn't seem to care about all the corpses. To her the attack on her home was far more horrific than this. They even killed her innocent servants. She vowed to avenge all the deaths of innocent peop

Those fingers painstakingly treated the wounds lodged in Aiden's skin one by one while occasionally frowning deeply when she felt she was pressing the wounds too hard. Calistha looked so concerned about the wounds that Aiden had all over his body. The man's handsome face is now also covered with bluish bruises with torn wounds on the right cheekbone and left temple, all of which make Calistha feel very bad for the man. "Why are you just silent, don't you feel hurt?" asked Calistha in amazement. She even felt pain just by looking at the bruises that were lodged all over Aiden's body. Luckily today they are not late to go to Seoul, and this plane has a fairly complete first aid facility. “I'm used to getting wounds like this, you don't have to worry. After this I will treat your wounds as well.” Calistha suddenly remembered the stinging pain in her arms, calves, and cheeks. Earlier she had gotten a few blows from Emily, plus Emily's men had interfered in their problems. "What about

“Tsk, they seem to have anticipated a hack. They have put in layers of protection." Malfoy huffed in annoyance as he kept trying to find loopholes to get into the government's information system. The site had been denying the various accesses he had used, even though he had used even the most sophisticated methods. But Malfoy believes if the site can still be opened, it's just that he needs a little patience to infiltrate the website. "There must be another way to open it." “It is, but we have to be a little patient.” "How, can't you hack it too?" From the kitchen, Calistha suddenly came with three cans of beer and a plate of pastries to serve to Malfoy. After placing the tray containing their food, Calistha immediately took a seat across from the sofa that Aiden was sitting on while looking at the two men in front of her in turn. "After Malfoy manages to hack a government site, what are we going to do?" "We're flying to South Korea today at three in the morning?" "Why so sudd

“Quickly get on the ship! Come on! Don't look back, quickly leave this village!” Priest Seulwo shouted loudly at the few remaining Bukchon villagers. Most of those who boarded the ship were women and children. The men of Bukchon chose to live in the village of Bukchon which was about to be destroyed by president Moon. He had sent some heavy equipment to level the village of Bukchon and removed all the buildings standing on it. “Where are we going? What if they follow us?” “They will not follow us because they have got what they want. We will go to Seoul and find some help.” Priest Seulwo replied firmly and immediately ordered his men to run the ship, away from the village of Bukchon which had been ravaged by miserly rulers. Priest Seulwo had always believed that Jacob's death would have such a devastating impact. He saw many rebellions that occurred after Jacob's death, and his daughter was also reported missing after being hunted by more than a dozen people who wanted all of his

Emily clenched her fists tightly as she cursed over and over at today's humiliating failure. She thought Calistha was a weak woman who couldn't possibly be able to fight her. But it turns out that all this time she had been tricked by Calistha who always pretended to be weak in front of everyone. “Luca is awake.” Emily immediately turned to her men and nodded in understanding. It's okay she failed to kill Calistha today. She still has other plans to destroy the woman. And one of her plans was to use Luca as bait to pull Calistha out of her hiding place. "Honey, how are you today?" Emily smiled gently at Luca who was staring at her blankly. There was no warmth in his eyes. He looked like a weak and empty wooden puppet. "My name is Emily, don't you remember me, babe?" She asked in a soft, lilting voice. Luca then shook his head in response, and he turned his eyes back to the hospital window which was showing a view of the thousands of trees planted in the back garden. "It's okay

Calistha breathed heavily as she followed Aiden's broad steps as he walked into his house. After they managed to deliver Luciana safely to her orphanage and made sure to give the little girl a tight guard while the criminals who kidnapped her were still out there, Aiden hadn't made the slightest sound in front of her. Even when Malfoy was talking to him, Aiden just responded coldly without giving any comment to every word Malfoy said when they talked about Luciana's safety. Calistha felt a little bad for making the atmosphere between them so unpleasant like this. She felt sorry for Aiden of course. She had been manipulating him all along. And unfortunately she didn't know how to act in front of him after this. But if she wanted to defend herself, she might find Aiden weird for being too much. Hadn't the man been paid to look after her? He shouldn't have gotten so angry with the truth she had been hiding for so long. She was just making sure her position was safe with Aiden. At this t

Calistha got out of Malfoy's jeep while smoothing the strands of her hair that were blowing in the wind to cover her eyes. They finally arrived at Ilderton after circling for quite a while looking for clues to Luciana's whereabouts. At first glance Calistha felt strange with Malfoy. The man said that he was just an ordinary young man who had never had anything to do with her father. But when she met Malfoy this morning, all her trust in him fell. She couldn't believe that Malfoy was just an ordinary boy because he seemed to be hiding something from her. And again, how did Malfoy find the whereabouts of Aiden's house? Even though she believes that the existence of Aiden's house is very difficult for people to find. Aiden's house has always looked like an empty, gloomy and haunted house. Malfoy couldn't have found her so quickly, unless Malfoy wasn't an ordinary boy, as he had been telling her all along. “They hid Luciana inside.” Calistha stared at Malfoy in silence and just followed

The little girl struggled and cried loudly in front of two well-built men who had been looking furious because of the little girl's loud voice. They then took a cloth and started gagging the pale lips of the little girl who had been crying all night without stopping. "You should be quiet and not hurt our ears, this is the result if you keep crying non-stop." Luciana inched backwards, but her hands and feet that were bound to the wooden chair made her movements seem useless. She wanted to go home and be back with her friends. She wanted her brave uncle to come save her. Saving her was like the fairy tales of the princesses that she had often read. The two men were like the monsters that had sometimes been present in her dreams, on the night when she suddenly missed her mother. Luciana sobbed softly behind the cloth covering her mouth. As a girl who is still very innocent, she has been faced with the cruelty of the world that has succeeded in taking her mother. Blame God who ordained
