***

As much as I loathed it, from that day on, Rick began paying close attention to me, and Alex was no exception.

Later, Nat brought the shopping bags to my room. I stared at her for a whole two minutes. They left the door to the room open, and Rick stood guard, but I could sense that only half of his concentration was here, undoubtedly afraid I might go berserk and harm the annoying brat.

Huh!"

"Annoying brat? 'Since when did Nat become annoying to me?' This is not good.

"What?" she questioned my stare.

"Seriously, you went shopping again?" I asked, trying to get the thought out of my head. "You still haven't learned your lesson." I added with a forced smile.

"Ha-ha-ha, that's funny," she spat out and threw the bags on the bed, joining me. "These are your shopping bags. I've been keeping them for you ever since the accident. Now that you are awake, you can have them back," she said.

"Oh, wait! I thought there were destroyed alongside the car?" I asked as I picked up the phone bag.

    ******"What do you mean, Megan Kova?" Drew asked with a tin laugh, "Don't tell me you were thinking about complicated things again?" he repeated."What do you mean, complicated?" I asked him, glancing at Alex. "I wasn't thinking anything like that. I just—'Oh, the black raven long hair is your mom...'" I halted. Wait, how did I know that? I questioned myself in my thoughts. I mean, I know she bears a resemblance to Nat, but I never actually thought she could be..."Who told you that?" Alex suddenly asked with a serious face; this was the first time I was seeing him this angry."No one, I just... saw her," I stammered."What! Where?" He stood up from the bed, turning from left to right."I don't know... In my dreams, maybe," I replied to him, but he gave me this unbelieving glance. I sighed, "I happened to see the framed picture one time, so... Before Natalie told me about it," I lied.Of course, it's obvious. Rather than believing in my words, he was going to be suspicious of me. How

    *****As usual, I shook off that feeling and ignored Rick's glare. I followed Michael's directions until we got to the refrigerator. However, just as I reached for the large double door, Michael tugged at my pants."No, not there, there," he said, pointing at a rather high, thin door."Oh, the chocolates are in here." I asked, and he nodded in reply.Seeing that they were strategically placed at this height, undoubtedly to keep them hidden from him, I opened the little door, and, oh my world! It was filled with all sorts of sweets, chocolates, and ice creams from various expensive brands. Glancing at Michael, I noticed he was already salivating, and I knew if given the chance, he could devour them all. That's undoubtedly harmful to his health.I bent down to his level and whispered in his ears, "You're only allowed to pick one," I instructed."What? That's not fair," he cried out."Well, it is since I'm the only one willing to help you out. Besides, too much of all this will cause ser

    **** "Did he just..." Rick attempted to speak, but the words struggled to escape his trembling lips due to the overwhelming anger. "I can't believe he just tried to kill me. How could he ---" Sighing, Avanska cautioned him, "I wouldn't say any more if I were you. This time, you went a little too far," he added. "How can you say that, Avanska? Do you even know what she did to me?" Rick asked, visibly upset. "Seriously, Rick, let me ask you," he said, moving closer to him. "Can you look me in the eyes and say she committed an outrageous offense that warrants such treatment?" The second in command questioned him. "Apart from her acting and speaking rudely, which is due to the drugs in her system, a situation you are well aware about, can you honestly tell me she did something bad?" he asked again. "WELL, SHE..." Rick paused as he realized no thoughts came to his head. "She was just..." He couldn't find the words to articulate any specific wrongdoing. He couldn’t say anything, not one

    The shots continued relentlessly. I tried to cover Michael's mouth with my hands while simultaneously figuring out a way out of the pressing situation.It wasn't just this side of the mansion that was being shot at; I could very well hear the thuds and gunshots from all around. It's correct to say we were surrounded.Just how can a well-guarded mansion, such as this, be surrounded without Kova's knowledge? I questioned. Something is not right.I glanced behind me to witness the destruction left by the bullets. The sofa we sat on not too long ago was shredded, its once comfortable form was now a chaotic mess of torn fabric and exposed padding. The closet I once admired lay in ruins, its doors torn to pieces. The walls, adorned with frames, were now marked by bullet holes, and the bed, once a haven of rest, was now disheveled and marred by the onslaught of gunfire. Broken glass was scattered everywhere The room was a complete mess after the gunfire."We can't stay here, It’s too dangero

    **** The hallway was dead silent. Not even a fly was present. Originally, I had thought maybe the maids and guards had hidden themselves somewhere. I started to search each room and office. Not only was it empty, it was destroyed; the windows were shattered, just like the one I came out of. “Just where the hell is everybody?” I questioned myself as I walked toward the stairs. A walk close to it, and I started hearing voices. As soon as the voices came, a spark in my head took a turn, and I knew danger was lurking around. Instead of running downstairs without thinking, I walked carefully through the dark hallway. The air felt heavy and quiet. As I got closer to the stairs, I noticed the detailed designs on the old carpet. I moved around the stairs carefully, making sure not to make much noise on the soft rug. Above me, the big fancy light was swinging gently, showing that something chaotic had happened. I couldn't hear Alex's voice in all the noise, so I got closer and hid behind a

    ***The three men turned toward me, and one of them spat out, "You little bitch!"Only three of them? I pondered. No, it couldn't be just them. I had to be cautious; this might be a trap."Oh, come on now, that's not a nice way to speak to a lady," I said, stalling for time while carefully considering my plan of action."Lady! Is that what you call yourself, you little brat?" One of them questioned me, raising a gun towards me. "You must be a member of the Kova. Why don't you be a nice little brat and come over here?" he continued.Feeling the tension rise, I couldn't let fear take over. My survival instincts kicked in, and I decided to make my move."Ha-ha!" I mocked his words. "No, you're wrong. I'm not a' member' of the Kova's. Rather, I'm the woman of the house, and I protect what is mine," I spat out.Without wasting any time, I shot at the hand pointing a gun towards me. He fell to the ground with a scream before the other two could react. The room erupted into chaos as the shot

    ****I noticed something about the guys I was shooting at – unlike the other idiots, they were a tough bunch. It wasn't easy taking them down. What caught my attention more was how they played it smart. They didn't just shoot; they watched, observed, and fired from hidden spots. These guys were on a different level – trained, stronger, and wearing some serious uniforms.I looked down and breathed a sigh of relief. Nat was already with Alex. Rick grab her in reached for in relief, pushing them both back into safety, and grabbed the weapon bag from Nat. In that quick moment, Alex shot me a panicked look."Ah, he's worried about me," I murmured to myself, finding a new source of hope in that thought. "Okay, time to end this," I decided, standing up and running toward the assholes.That move I pulled was no joke, even for a trained soldier. But hey, I wasn't a soldier or a Mafia, just someone who loves the words 'Action' and 'Gangster.' Cut me some slack, …. Right?And since that move was

    *****I was falling down, I could hear screaming, likely Nat's. Surprisingly, I wasn't scared; this was part of my plan to throw the men off guard. However, even with that thought, I knew the impending impact at this dangerous height was undeniable.Closing my eyes, bracing for the impact, I expected to hit the hard ground. To my surprise, my body encountered a steady yet warm surface. Opening my eyes, I found Alex panting hard against my ears. He had caught me."Jesus! What... are you okay?" he asked with concern.“Yes, I think so," I replied as I sat up from his arms, turning to him. "Are you?" I questioned.Sighing, he expressed concern, "Jesus, Sophie, what were you thinking jumping like that? Are you trying to-""Fuck that, there is no time," I cut him off. Without wasting any time, I picked up the short gun and the gun Alex was holding."What—" he started to say, confused by my swift actions.However, I shut him up as I pushed him out of the way and unleashed the gun against the

My parents, Alex, Drew, Rick, and Avavska—everyone is here, surrounding me with their presence.“Darling, are you okay?” Dad’s voice is filled with both worry and relief. I smiled at him and nodded.I slowly turn to Alex, who is now kneeling beside me. “Hey!” I whisper softly, with exhaustion in my voice.“Hey,” he replies, gently pressing his lips to my hand. His voice trembles, and I can see the strain in his eyes. “I thought I lost you,” he murmurs, struggling to keep his emotions in check.“That’s never going to happen,” I reply firmly, though my

    Inside the Plane***I wake slowly, the world around me cloaked in thick shadows and muted sounds.My head throbs with a relentless, pounding rhythm, each pulse sending a sharp wave of pain through my skull—a brutal reminder of the hell I’ve just been through.The surgery on my brain lasted four hours, but it feels like I’ve been lost in darkness for days. Ten hours—ten agonizing hours—I’ve been out cold, unaware, while everything around me kept moving, kept changing.How do I know that? Don’t ask me. My brain is a ticking time bomb right now, and I’m not sure it can handle the strain of thinking, of trying to make sense of what’s real and what’s not. Pondering over it feels like a dangerous game, one I’m not willing to play.The steady hum of the plane’s engines is gone, replaced by an eerie stillness.

    Chapter 81 - Not yet the end“Sophie? Sophie?” Alex’s voice was frantic as Daniel laid her trembling body on the table.He turned to Drew, his tone urgent. “We need to operate now.”Drew didn’t hesitate, quickly setting out the operating tools. “Yes, right away.”“Operate on her? What are you talking about?” Alex suddenly demanded, confusion and anger rising in his voice, but no one answered him.Emily, who had already pieced together what was happening with her daughter, spoke up, her voice shaky. “We can’t do this here. We should wait until we land first.”“And risk losing the only chance to save her?” Drew shot back, his tone sharp.Still confused and growing more frustrated, Alex demanded, “Why does she need an operation to be saved?” His eyes darted from Avanska to Rick, then locked onto Drew. “Is there something you’re not telling me?”Avanska turned to Rick, whose nervous eyes were scanning the room as if searching for answers that weren’t there.“Answer me!” Alex’s voice thund

    **Continuation**Meanwhile, on the far edge of the field.I gasped as blood dripped from my mouth. Killing this general was taking longer than I’d anticipated, and the first time bomb I’d planted when leaving the underground facility had already started going off.“We need to end this now,” I muttered, just as another bomb exploded in the distance.It felt like the universe was finally throwing me a bone—the general stumbled, losing his balance. I seized the moment, driving my dagger into his lower abdomen, pushing it deeper with all my strength.He groaned in agony and flung me off, but Alex and my mother were already on him, launching another attack from behind.I stood still for a moment, knowing if I waited for him to go down before making my next move, it would be too late.I scanned the area for someone reliable, but everyone was engaged in the battle—except for… Drew and my father.

    ****"Sorry, come again?" Daniel requested, with his eyes throwing a dagger at him.Drew’s face drained of color, his eyes widening with sudden fear as he realized he’d just betrayed himself.He stiffened, turning his head away, and cleared his throat awkwardly. “I’m afraid I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he stammered, attempting to mask his panic.“Isn’t it a bit late for that?” Daniel pressed, his voice cold and unwavering. “The look on your face tells me you know more than you’re letting on. I just watched my daughter writhing in pain, clutching her head. So if you say—”“Wait!” Drew interrupted, his voice rising in alarm. “You found her already?”Daniel’s eyes narrowed as he stepped closer, his anger palpable. “Yes, to be precise, she found us. Now, tell me what’s going on before it’s too late.”Drew swallowed hard, his composure crumbling under the weight of Daniel’s intense gaze. “I… I don’t think you’re ready for the truth,” he said, his voice trembling.Daniel’s gaze

    ~~~~For my plan to succeed, he needed to lower his guard, even a little. My eyes locked onto the grenade launcher in his hands. Damn...Dert… He was the last of the three generals. I didn't know the full extent of his power, but I knew killing him wouldn’t be easy. Still, it was better to face him in combat than to let him toy with my family's lives.I’d rather gamble with my life, I thought, a devilish grin spreading across my face as he loaded his grenade launcher.“Seriously, is that the best you can do?” I questioned him, marching forward, trying to make him lose his guard. Another grenade flew past my shoulder, leaving burns. I groaned in pain. “This’s hardly a fair fight,” I yelled. “Even when I killed the other generals, it was a fair fight.”He ignored me and continued firing. I didn’t give up, continuing to taunt him. “And you call yourself a man—a general at that.” I halted. “What a waste of a title,” I spat out.At my last comment, he suddenly paused and gently pulled back

    ~~~"This isn't happening," I murmured faintly.The grenade was almost upon my mother, and time seemed to slow. I reached out, heart pounding, cold dread filling me as I realized I might not make it in time.“No…” I found myself screaming, despite the deadly headache and the sharp pains ringing inside my skull. Just then, the cause of my current situation decided to do me a favor—MANA.It was as if I was suddenly filled with a kind of supernatural strength unlike anything before. Instead of running, I saw myself flying. In that instant, I threw myself on her, and she fell to the ground with a loud gasp.The grenade barely missed her as it flew past us, leaving a small cut on my shoulder, while pushing me off my mother and landing on some military men, blowing them to pieces.The chaos around me blurred into a grim symphony of screams and explosions, but all I could focus on was the faint rise and fall of my mother’s breath beneath me. My breaths came in ragged gasps, the pain still pu

Sophie stood there, motionless, covered in blood from head to toe.Her eyes locked onto Emily’s with a fierce, unyielding glare.Emily couldn’t believe what she saw—Sophie, the daughter she thought she knew, standing over the bloody mess she had wrought.Her mind raced while her body remained frozen. The brutality of the scene left her paralyzed. She couldn’t tear her eyes away from her daughter, now a stranger, a deadly force she could barely recognize."Just what the hell, Sophie?
