"We are in danger, it's all your fault." Tinaasan ko ng kilay si Troy, at napatampal sa noo si Astron matapos tignan ng masama si Troy.

Ito hindi ko maintindihan kay Troy, bakit grabe ang galit nito sa akin, wala naman ako ginagawang masama sa kanya, and I don't even give a fuck to his existence.

"Problema mo, hindi mo pa naririnig ng buo yung sinasabi ni Ash, naninisi ka na agad?" Inismiran ko ito at ako naman tinignan ng masama ni Astron.

"What?" I said and he just took a deep sighed and stood up again.

"This issue, ayoko iparating kay Papa, I'll solve this on my own, baka maatras ang pag-pasa sa akin sa Allegra," Ash explained at sumangayon naman kaming lahat.

"My plan is to allow Eclipse to do her own way, para mamanipula si Avignon, for two months of spawn of time, let's see how Christ will play, and kapag naging successful ang plano, then the underground city of Allegra will went smooth." Tumango ang iba at tumaas na naman ang kamay ni Troy.

Si Troy yung klase ng tao na masyadong pabibo, mula bata kami ganyan na s'ya. Nakakainis na rin.

"What if Eclipse failed, what's your other plan." Doon ako napasandal at natahimik ang lahat, they all looked at me, para ba nasa kamay ko ang buhay at itatakbo ng buong Allegra.

"I won't fail, because if it didn't work, I will kill him surely this time, he show some interest that's why I have to act inlove." I said at ngumuti si Troy.

"Eclipse, kahit maging maayos ang plano, ang mission mo from the beginning was to kill him, execute him." Tumango ako ng marahan sa sinabi nito.

Totoo, iyon ang plano at nadelay at kailangan na idelay ng kaunti ang plano, dahil sa kinilos ni Christ.

"But I also have this feeling and some news about the Avignon. How crazy they are when they found you interesting to their eyes." Napatigil kaming lahat at nakinig.

"They get what they want, simple as that. But Christ is different case, he never involve himself to other woman from the beginning, kahit noong teenage years n'ya." Napalunok ako sa nalaman ko.

Am I at the bad situation now? He's the greatest enemy of my father, and he's not on the right mind para magustuhan ang anak ng kalaban n'ya.

Wala na ang triad, bago ako makalabas sa Alaska ay tapos na ang away ng Avignon at Chua, ang Dela Torre naman ay hindi kagaya sa away ng Avignon. Pero ngayong ninakaw namin ang isa sa malaking asset nila, alam ko na malaki ang kailangan ko na bayaran kung gusto nga ako ni Christ.

"Let's hope that Eclipse can handle that monster, because you don't know what he is capable off, kapatid n'ya pa lang ang kumilos last time, halos mawasak ang lahat ng international member ng higher court ng mafia organizations, how much more kunt ang boss na nila mismo kikilos?" Tumawa si Troy at napaismid.

"They even have Amelia, that freaking genius prodigy, Villanueva and Avignon is really lucky, I just hope that to the Dela Torre blood, maghalo man ang dugo kahit isa sa Avignon or Villanueva, mas malaki ang sakop ng bawat isa," Troy said at napaismid.

"If Nazi wasn't that greedy, iniisa-isa nila mga malaking business tycoons, heiresses para mapalawak ang nasasakupan nila. Salvia, Avignon and Villanueva's are born to become an greedy leaders." Lumagok si Troy ng alak, habang ako ay napasindi ng sigarilyo sa kinauupuan ko.

"What if I got the Avignon blood?" Troy laughed hard while holding his stomach.

"Eclipse, you're not a Dela Torre. We have no idea what bloodline you belong, ampon ka remember?" He's being sarcastic, ampon ako oo. Pero sa akin interesado ang Mafia Boss ng Avignon.

"Mira is the key to blood bond, not you." Napalunok ako sa sinabi ni Troy. I think he has a bad idea.

"What if you drugged Avignon and let Mira fuck him, and impregnate by Christ, bearing the child of Avignon is the biggest assurance that we need, na hindi nila sisirain ang underground city ng Allerga." I don't know I feel this tight feeling inside my chest, at Troy's idea.

I mean, that's great, the assurance that they need, pero ako kasi ang gusto. Hindi rin sa gusto ko na mabuntis ako ni Christ. But I have this feeling na sana ako na lang, kasi ako naman ang gusto.

Kaso oo nga pala, hindi ako Dela Torre. I'm just a adopted child that Lord Nate got.

"Bahala kayo, basta I'll do my mission, as what you all want." Tumayo na ako at lumabas sa living room sa taas.

Bahala na sila roon, ang mahalaga ay may plano kami pansamantala, at kailangan namin malinis ang kalat. Alam ko na hindi rin ganoong plantsyado ang plano ni Ash sa auction.

That's why he's taking the responsibility sa mali na nagawa n'ya, and what I've done is just a few mistakes because of his plan.

Kumunot noo ko ng may maid na pumasok sa study room, she's sneaking around.

I do tip toe while walking, and give some time para makapagkalkal s'ya sa loob kung may ginagawa man s'ya, and I am right.

She's looking for something right now! Is she a spy? Pero bakit ang tanga naman ng spy na pinadala sa bahay.

Kahit hindi trained assassin, kayang mahuli katangahan ng katulong na ito, pinaka ayoko pa naman sa lahat ay tanga.

I grabbed her arms and knock her out. Nakatulog naman ito agad, kinaladkad ko papunta sa theater room namin, sakto badtrip ako.

I tied the woman and get some water, she's acting sleep, but deep down. Alam ko na nag-papanggap lang iyon.

"Wake up, stupid. I know you're awake, god." I rolled my eyes at hiniklat ang kuwelyo nito, inalog ng marahan at hindi pa rin ito nagising.

"Still acting dumb huh." Kinuha ko ang yantok at malakas na hinampas ang hita ng babae na pinaghihinalaan ko na espiya.

She screamed in pain, start to whimp and act like she's one of the great actresses at the Oscars.

"Sabing nasaan!" sigaw ko habang hawak hawak ko ang yantok, umamba ako at napaiwas ito kahit nakatali sa upuan.

"Wala po ako ginagawang masama, bakit n'yo ako sinasaktan?" I smirked and hit her arm, she cried in pain while I kicked her stomach.

"That's enough, Eclipse!" Tumigil ako at tinignan ko ng masama si Astron.

"What the hell are you doing with her?" He questioned me and I can't help but to scoff.

"Sir, tulungan n'yo po ako, bigla na lang po ako sinaktan ni Ma'am." I rolled my eyes, trying to compose myself, this fucking liar makes me annoyed that much.

"That's not true, I saw her at the study room, lurking around. She's looking for something!" Inis akong lumapit sa babae, at hiniklat ang buhok nito para maitingala sa akin.

"Speak, or will break your bones!" panakot ko pero parang wala lang ito sa kanya, I knew it. She's trained.

Being a trained assassin or a spy must invest a lot of time and efforts.

And she's making a lot of effort now, to act dumb and answering us with her foolish statements, its annoy me big time.

"No ma'am I don't know what are you talking about." I smiled sweetly, and touched her arm, I pressed it hard and it cause a dislocated bone.

She cried in pain habang nanginginig ako sa galit, she is they new maid at the mansion.

Nag-tataka kaming lahat kung bakit parang alam na alam ng kalaban kung nasaan ang susunod na transactions namin, at napupurnada ang lahat. Nalulugi kami at napaka laking halaga ang kinalugi namin.

I also have a bad feeling that there is someone in the mansion who is a spy, and I finally found one.

Nasisisi pa ako na espiya, at dahilan bakit nasisira ang mga plano. Now, I will prove them my innocence.

"Mag-sasalita ka o kabilang balikat mo ang susunod!" I kicked her knees at mas napadaing ito sa sigaw dahil sa nakatingkayad nalang sya para hindi mabanat ang braso n'ya, the more she resist, I will definitely make her talk about it.

Napaliyad ito at pumalahaw ng sigaw, bumaba ang mga nakakatanda, sila Papa nate at Ryan na nakatungkod na at si Troy na katabi ng tatay n'ya.

"What is this Scarlett?" Ngumuso ako at tinaasan ko ng kilay si Astron.

"Help me." I mouthed and he just took a deep breath.

"Papa, this woman is a spy," saad ni Astron at tumawa naman ng nakakaloko si Troy at tinignan ko ito ng masama. Is there something funny?

"She's acting weird again, Uncle." Naiinis ako at para bang pinag-kakatuwaan nila ako. I am just doing my job here, para hindi masabihan na walang kwenta.

Mabilis akong bumwelo at binigyan ng suntok sa kabilang bahagi ng braso nito.

"Avignon! Avignon sent me here to look for the next transactions. They want to know the secret recipe of the new drugs you sell on black market." Natigil ang pag-tawa ni troy at naging seryoso ang tingin sa babae.

Now, they believe me.

Hinugot ko ang baril ko at hinampas sa batok nung babae ang handle at nakatulog ito agad, inayos ko naman ang dislocated na buto n'ya at dinala sa kulungan n'ya.

"I can't trust the mafia on both of you, I am very disappointed." Papa said habang nagsasalin ng alak sa baso at naka upo kaming tatlo sa harapan nila Papa at Uncle.

"Scarlett, can you pass the bottle of scotch?" Uncle said, and I just did what he asked.

Matapos ko na iabot, mabilis itong binato sa pader at nanahimik kaming tatlo sa gilid.

"You didn't even noticed that we are being spied? What the hell you three are doing huh?" No one dared to talk now or move.

Para kaming paralisado, pinapagalitan sa kinatatayuan namin at para bang bata kami.

"You, Scarlett. I can't believe that you let this happened, ano naglalaro lang kayong tatlo, mafia organization isn't a playground. This is our business and you younger generation have no idea how we survive after all happened." I look away and Astron stood up for me and Troy.

"I am sorry, hindi ko napansin agad. I am the responsible one for this incident. And I am thankful that even it's too late, Scarlett found that there is a spy here." Si Troy ay napaismid at umiwas ng tingin sa sinabi ni Astron.

"You should not mess up this time, I badly want to retire and enjoy the beach scenery at Bali. Ayusin n'yo ang mga gulo na andito, plan ahead of time and play safe. Avignon is getting into our way, again. Scarlett." I looked at Papa and he smile at me. That smile means disaster and a really hard mission.

Agaw buhay na misyon.

"Play along with Christ, if he want you, make him want you more, do what you gotta do. Kailangan natin malinlang at maisahan sila, habang may pagkakataon, gawin mo ang makakaya mo." I nod and he smile evily. I already anticipate the situation, it's either me, dead at the lawn of Avignon's mansion, or my body at the morgue of head quarters.

"Tignan natin kung ano gagawin nila kapag malaman nila ang katotohanan. They cannot escape us this time, my plan is a head of time, and that is my security para hindi nila ako maloko muli." I gulped and have no idea what Papa is talking about when he mentioned security.

He is ensuring all things, mga possible nq mangyare at maging cause ng problema. That's how Nate plan ahead and survived the latest crisis.

But deep inside my mind, is this really my purpose in this family, to become someone that needed to find their purpose?

Papaano na lang ako kung hindi na nila makita ang halaga ko, mawawala na ba ako sa pamilya na ito, kapag ba natapos ko ang mission ko, wala na ba akong lulugaran sa pamilya na ito?

"I am expecting more to you, hija. Please don't disappoint me. Because the last time that I didn't get what I want, I forced everything yhat I can." Astron hold my hand and taped my shoulder.

"I know that Scarlett will manage all of this."Astron's voice helps me to calm down.
