“Let them in, Fred”
The guy in the front, clutching a cigarette with his right hand and stroking his overgrown beard with the left, ordered the bouncer, staring at Fiona with his lustful eyes. The smug look on his face made her face twist with anger and disgust. Fiona turned her face away, shrugging her shoulders and gestured Neil to get over with it fast, ignoring the scoundrel behind her. After confirming their identity and ticket, Fred gave them access to enter the club. “How dare that bitch to turn a blind eye towards me?” Levi shouted while glaring at the backs of those teens who just entered the club and followed suit, tossing the cigarette butt aside, swearing under his breath. “Levi! We should go to the basement.” Finn stopped Levi before he can head towards the top floor, to remind him why they were here in the first place and that is to negotiate a deal with the arms dealer. They shouldn’t make any mistakes because he didn’t want to even wonder what will happen if they fail. “Only after dealing with that chick.” He was a complete jerk and Finn knew it already thus complained to his master and also, Levi joined the clan only a few months ago yet he was assigned for such an important task. It’s impossible to understand Master’s actions. Levi does his work correctly but his weakness is his lust. Whenever he saw a beautiful woman, he had to bed them either by hook or crook and now he had set his eyes on that black dress girl. That’s how he lived before joining the clan and if he thinks that he could live like his old self even after being a member of the clan, he’s a fool. Thiago met Ria who is waiting for them at the bar counter. He introduced her to his friends and ordered drinks to everyone. They sat at a corner table which was reserved for them ahead to celebrate. The girls were gossiping about other girls swaying on the dance floor, being dictated by music and the mood. The feeling of letting oneself go and just dance our hearts out thinking everything will be fine and just smiling. Such a beautiful feeling. Meanwhile Neil just sat there gazing at his girlfriend as she was chatting with the girls because he can’t talk to Thiago as he was busy flirting with Ria. Just then the drinks arrived and the six of them held their glasses together, “To our graduation” and squealed before downing them. Fiona shook her head as the cold liquid burned down her throat. “That was awesome” Everyone agreed except Fiona as she didn’t like that burning feeling after drinking. She always prefers wine but today she wanted to try vodka as Thiago suggested but no it’s not for her. She was a wine girl since she was fifteen and will always be a wine girlie. She put her glass down shaking her head. “I can’t guys. I want wine” “What? No way. This is our party, Fiona. We should get wasted with the booze” Gwen complained placing the drink in Fiona’s hand. “NO! I am getting wine. That’s it.” She excused herself and went to the bar counter. Darla shrugged her shoulders, sighing on witnessing their exchange. It was Fiona’s fifteenth birthday and her wish that year is to taste alcohol and as her dear friend, Darla was all in and she even sneaked in a wine bottle to the party which was stolen from her mother’s kitchen cabin. That’s when Fiona first tasted wine and she never liked anything that much and she didn’t even taste other drinks and didn’t want to until tonight. “Round two?” “Yay!!!!” They downed another round and then another while Fiona stood at the counter for her wine as the bartender went to fetch a new bottle, after politely asking her to wait for a few minutes. She squinted her eyes a little as the disco lights pierced through them. She started to tap her slender fingers to the pop music rhythmically playing around there while eyeing people aimlessly, letting her thoughts wander. Everyone is enjoying, drinking until they can’t think straight, dancing until their legs give out, whereas she feels so dispirited, why? She then remembered her unfinished painting and sighed. She was trying to get through it for days now but always got distracted by her thoughts. She should complete it tomorrow at any cost. She has this passion for sketching and painting since childhood. At that time when she made her mind to sketch something, she couldn’t move from that place until it’s done and perfect. Although those were simple ones suitable for her age, she was so concentrated on her art, trying to put her imaginations on paper but currently her thoughts were in chaos. She wants to pause them by giving attention to what’s in front of her eyes instead of what’s on her mind and succeeded only for a good-few-minutes. How good would it be if she just stayed in her childhood forever? Maybe she should do a painting dictated by her thoughts. That might help. Her peaceful moments were interrupted by the scoundrel she met outside the club. All of a sudden, he came out of nowhere and held her hand, resting on the counter before pulling her up and away from the counter. Fiona widened her eyes, screaming at the sudden movement. Before she can grasp what’s going on, the bastard dragged her towards the stairs behind the bar counter. She immediately held the railing when saw one, refusing to take another step and that was when she saw the face of the culprit. “Want to have fun?” Levi asked, winking at her with a disgusting smirk playing on his lips. Fiona’s eyes turned red with fury, lifted her right leg and kicked his balls hard. Finn and his men were dumbfounded to see their mate getting hit by a lady nonetheless. Their shock made them glue to their spot for a quite some time unable to process what just happened and how is it even possible. She looked so docile but Levi was a trained guy, yet he was at the receiving end of pain from a fragile looking teenage girl. “You bastard. How dare you touch me?” Fiona rubbed her wrist in revulsion, cursing at him. The audacity of this asshole to lay his filthy hand on her. She lifted her right palm and slapped him with all the strength she could muster up. It was totally unexpected for Levi who was already dwelling in suffering, clutching his groin with his hands, face scrunched up in pain. He could do nothing to dodge it. The music and darkness in the club swallowed the commotion happening there. Neil who sensed Fiona’s absence at the bar counter stood up instantly, worried, to search for her, followed by Darla with a drink in her hand. It took almost thirty seconds for Levi to get hold of himself and realise what just occurred right now. His eyes widened with fury when he registered the shame this girl brought to him in front of his mates and immediately took out a gun from his jacket, pointing at Fiona. “You have the nerve to hit me? Me!?” Levi shouted pointing his index finger at himself and slowly pulled the trigger, laughing maniacally “you are dead bitch.” He was about to shoot at her when Finn who came out of his dumbstruck state, pulled the gun from Levi’s hands fast enough to stop the unnecessary drama which might end by them being killed by Master. “Levi! You know the rules” Finn yelled at him, glaring hard for his stupidity. It was him who started all this in the first place and yet he was ready to bring them all down along with him. Fiona on the other hand didn’t even flinch when she saw the gun pointed to her forehead, a mere inches away. She stood straight with chin out and face held high, showing no vulnerability. Her face held an unknown confidence that she will be out of here in one piece that she can dodge a bullet if it ever fired. “Finn, stay out of my way. I should kill her now” Levi tried to snatch the gun back from Finn but he didn’t let him. He shook his head before uttering “Master would kill all of us if you harm the public.” A shiver run down Levi’s spine on hearing the word ‘Master’. He can’t dare to cross his Master’s rules but how can he let this one go. The embarrassment is too much to ignore and he can still feel his balls crying in pain because of this whore standing before him, smirking, provoking him to do something if he can. She thinks he can’t do anything? That smug look on her face says everything. “Coward bastard” Fiona muttered under her breath before turning around but still Levi heard it. He pushed Finn away who stood in between him and Fiona before darting towards her. Neil and Darla who saw Fiona slapping a bulky guy backed by few other bulky guys, were terrified for her friend and swiftly reached her side just in time to push that scoundrel who’s advancing towards Fiona and quickly covered their friend behind them, protecting her. The bartender who came back with the wine bottle called the manager as soon as he saw the gun pointing at a civilian. “Are these two your dogs, bitch? Did you hire them to save you?” Fiona who decided to spare him a while ago, laughed out loud clapping her hands. Some idiots wouldn’t learn from their mistakes and even a double-punches won’t work on them. She stretched her hands, cracking her knuckles, preparing herself for a real fight. As she was trying to push her friends aside and step up in front, Neil stopped her with his hand and spoke, “Hey dude! We are trying to save YOU, not my friend so just back off before she breaks you.” Not only Levi, his pals too were astonished hearing Neil’s words. They all gave a glance at Fiona who looks like a delicate beauty with a mocking gaze. Can this kid really fight with a goon like Levi? They definitely doubt it. The first kick and a slap caught Levi off guard but now he was provoked and won’t take it easy. On the other hand, Darla broke in cold sweat looking at Fiona’s angry face. She may look pretty and innocent on the outside but only she and her friends knew how dangerous Fiona can be. Fiona spent most days of their middle school, fighting with guys who hit on her and then later in detention. She is beautiful and guys used to try every trick possible to get her reciprocate their feelings. Sometimes they went overboard and that’s when Fiona would unleash her fists on them, later guys fought as their pride was provoked but only ended up beaten by her. Fiona never liked anyone to approach her with romantic feelings. She was like a Tom boy in the group. When they came to High School, her reputation has spread enough for any guys to approach her in the name of love so eventually her fighting quests came to an end but today is like waking up that sleeping warrior after a long time. Levi laughed out loud, holding his stomach with one hand while pointing his index finger at Fiona and then at him, making ‘you beat me?’ gesture to prove that he didn’t believe Neil’s threat. “You knew how to fight? Hah…Haha… You think you can fight me” Even the men behind Levi started laughing foolishly along with him. Fiona took few deep breaths, clenching and unclenching her fists to stop herself from exploding then and there. She then tried to step forward again only to be stopped by Neil. He turned towards her and whispered, “We are here to celebrate Fiona, not to pick a fight. So, let’s end it here. You already kicked him I guess.” hoping it will convince her to drop the idea of fighting. When Neil and Darla searched for Fiona earlier, they found her, slapping Levi who was already wailing in pain, clutching his groin. That’s how Neil realised that slap is just a bonus and the actual reward was already given before that. Neil then faced Levi before saying “Let’s end this here, mister. We don’t want to drag this any longer. We have to go” he then eye signalled Darla to take Fiona away from here, nodded at Finn before walking away with the girls. Darla carefully dragged Fiona away, afraid that she would go back again to beat the pulp out of that crap. “Enough Levi. We should go. Now.” Finn stopped Levi with a hard pull on his shoulder, when he was about to follow the kids, still not willing to let it go. Levi paused, gritting his teeth while glaring at Fiona’s back, mumbling “I’m not done with you yet, bitch. I’ll come back for you again.” He then turned around, rushing to the basement along with his men, to complete the given task.“What’s wrong with you? Why are you making a scene?” Darla scolded Fiona, depositing the drink she was carrying earlier, on the table, before placing her hand on her waist like a mother hen trying to teach her chick, here Fiona. “He touched my hand. You shouldn’t have stopped me.” Fiona retorted while sitting on the sofa beside Gwen, still frustrated. She took some wet tissues from her clutch and cleaned her hands thoroughly, remembering his filthy hand on her wrist. “Fiona, I know what that bastard did is wrong but you know what kind of people come to this club and yet you carelessly went and punched him. He possessed a gun for God’s sake, what if he hurt you?” Fiona lowered her head, hearing Neil’s worry etched angry tantrum. That’s right, she was being reckless. Never did she think for a second that he might have a gun with him, take it out of nowhere and tries to shoot her. It’s not that she didn’t know how to dodge a bullet but still it’s a careless thing to do on her
Never in her dreams she thought she had to face a near death experience. The moment she heard the commotion in her house, she knew something’s going to happen. The panic rising within her, the unknown gut-wrenching fear, everything confirmed her suspicion yet she couldn’t do anything to stop it from happening. She was just a kid to do anything.Every time her mind goes back to that particular memory, it’s like the smoke is still there, surrounding her, clogging her nose and burning her eyes. The fire eating away her home, swallowing the screams of feared ones and the pleads of her mother to let their family go, still vividly plays in her mind. Like she was teleported to that tragic day every time and forced to live it again and again. It’s astonishing how the eight-year-old her still recollects all those tiny moments happened on that day but all she can do now is to be grateful for surviving the accident and escape to Kandon.She was born in Cylantra aka her dad’s territory where peop
The night is still blooming and exciting for the people who refuses surrendering to sleep. After closing the deal Levi again searched for Fiona on the top floor but was disappointed for not finding her anywhere. He went straight to the manager questioning, “Who is she?”Levi didn’t need to introduce himself as everybody in this club-workers or customers- knew to whom he works for. The manager didn’t hesitate a second and gave the information used in purchasing the entry ticket probably Neil’s.“All these efforts are unnecessary. Back off, Levi. She’s not worth it.” Finn half-shouted at him.Levi must stop pursuing this matter at any cost. Master doesn’t appreciate such trivial matters and hates when his men use their power to harm common people. And this dumb Levi here is trying to break that utmost important rule, he shouldn’t allow that whilst master unleashes his wrath on all of them.“I know what I am doing, Finn.”Levi took the piece of paper with a phone number written on it and
“The deal is closed.” It’s not a question but a statement, indicating there is no reason for him to go. Still, Levi didn’t back off rather replied, “Yes, Master. But I had to collect my reward I won yesterday from the gambling.” He knew it’s a lame excuse but that’s the only one his mind could make up in such a short notice. Shit! He should’ve come prepared about what to say beforehand but then he didn’t plan to ask Master directly. He should blame his impulsiveness. He waited for the Master to say something or anything but again only silence greeted him. In his nervousness to make his reason sound more reasonable, he told series of lies which just popped up in his head. “Yesterday, I met someone in the club who are in urgent need of money and I promised to help them thus I gambled but because of our limited time I couldn’t collect the money. So, I had to meet him today, it’s an emergency. Please, let me go, Master.” The window was rolled up and the engine roared to life as the ca
Cylantra is the main land for smuggling and for nearly a century, mafia owned this city for their business and as their home. It is also here that the Golden Eagle clan - the most powerful mafia clan over years was born by three best friends a decade ago which later had to face a horrific tragedy and the clan fell apart as quickly as it rose to power.Clan leaders, their women along with the people of clan, everyone died or that was what mostly believed. After a couple of years, people from Golden Eagle clan who made it alive through the tragedy gave life to new clan - The Kingsters, with the remains of the old one, proving to everyone who thought it was the end for their mafia era, that they were alive and started to rule Cylantra like old times but after a year came another clan - BlackWolf, rising to power slowly yet steadily with an anonymous leader, defeating the Kingsters and marked Cylantra as their territory.BlackWolf Clan didn’t destroy the Kingsters to ground rather only ma
“Master, where should I send her?”Cecelia regretted as soon as those words left her lips. She’s as good as dead now. How can she question him about his intentions? She knew what he was referring to but still dared to ask him. She realised her mistake and swiftly kneeled on the ground when she saw her Master turning around.“Spare me Master. You summoned only me for a long time. So, I thought…”“You thought?”She started trembling while lowering her head even more to the ground. What did she just say? And how can she answer him now without showing her true intentions which she hid from everyone for so long. If she reacts wrongly now, all her efforts would be in vain.“I apologize for my recklessness, Master. She’ll be waiting for you in the pleasure room soon.”She heaved a sigh when he started walking away but the cruel words, he threw at her before disappearing made her blood boil in rage.“You better know your place, Cecelia.”Why? Why can’t she expect more from him? Who is more wo
Wilson’s finally gave in to her request and shared their opinions but mostly gave her advices to help her in making good decision about her future. She listened to every word they shared keenly, engraving them into her heart and mind. After talking to them, she said her goodbyes and left home after wearing an over coat, to the mall Darla texted. As she was waiting for her friend, Fiona unknowingly lost herself watching an advertisement displaying on the billboard, hung to a skyscraper in front of the mall. The advertisement was about some brand which manufactures natural skin care products. They shot the commercial in a forest packed with birds and few animals in the background. What sucked her into the loop of her thoughts was the eagle in the commercial. She sighed, lowering her head as memories of her past came rushing all at once. The eagle always reminds her of her family and she’s missing them so much. If only she can go back to her childhood and things were as same as she
Logan’s hand which is resting on Victoria’s shoulder, squeezed tightly while his other hand fisted on his side. Fresh rivulets of tears fell from Victoria’s agonizing eyes. They understood what the police is implying.“Cy…Cylantra? How is it even possible?”Logan slumped on the chair, defeated and heartbroken while Darla held Victoria who was on the verge of collapsing.Cylantra belongs to BlackWolf clan. Whoever did this, why did they take his daughter there? Or is it the clan people who kidnapped her? But they never hurt common people? Then why his daughter?He wanted to fight with the police, argue or plead or whatever it takes to bring their lovely daughter back home but he knew they can’t do anything now. Not just police but nobody can do anything. He failed her daughter. He failed as a father. How can he ever save his daughter now?Back in the SUV, Milo tied Fiona's hands and legs with the cable wires and seated her alone at the back as per Master’s order.Master also instructed
Klara Roselli Ralph’s heartbeat increased as he uttered her name out for the first time in many years in front of his people and he would’ve spun her around in joy, calling out her name if it’s any other situation but now he didn’t know what to feel.His eyes caressed her dumbstruck face and slowly lifted his hand. He smirked patting her cheek as he liked the look on her face. She wouldn’t gave expected him to call her real name. She must be too shocked to react. As he said it’s time to end her chapter in his life. “What? Surprised that I know who you are?”His words reached Klara’s ears but still she looked at him with a blank face as if she’s seeing him for the first time and removed his hand from her.“No…”She whispered shaking her head slowly, giving him a look of disbelief. “I…I am surprised that you thought of me as your…ENEMY”She should be surprised, no she should be horrified as she’s caught red handed but she isn’t as surprised as she thought she would be when he
Klara never expected Ralph to act like a coward instead of taking responsibility for his actions. It’s true that they never planned to have a baby but it just happened. Ralph always says that one should face consequences for their actions and now it’s their turn to face the truth.Just because he has no desire to sire a child doesn’t mean he should abandon his baby. It’s such an innocent soul. How can he be cruel to his own blood? “I was with you Ralph. How can you not remember?”Klara placed her hand on her forehead helplessly, her voice breaking each time she remembered his denial. She looked into his eyes taking a deep breath trying to take as much as oxygen she can as she’s having difficulty to breathe because of smoke and also she started to feel dizzy but she gathered her energy and spoke out … “Fine! Don’t trust me. Now tell me where were you on that night? If you are not with me then where have you been?”Ralph's breath stuck in his throat hearing her question and guilt r
Enrico is currently having trouble to breathe as Dylan and Milo gave him hard time pressing him to the floor. He didn’t know whether to feel happy or sad about the present situation. He’s fighting for his life at one side and is worried about his baby on the other side. He is glad that Ralph is doubting Klara because this is what he wanted from the very start. A discord, a rift between both of them but he never expected his child to be hurt at the end. He gave a look at Cecelia who is standing aside with eyes full of joy. Bitch! She knew. She knew about Klara’s condition but she did nothing when Klara fell down. Why? Aren’t they supposed to help each other? Why is she going against him when everything is falling in a place? Cecelia danced in her heart hearing Ralph’s denial. Thank god he didn’t remember anything from the other night otherwise she would be dead by now. She is having so much fun to see Klara suffer in both physical and emotional pain. She deserves it. Since the
Enrico felt like this would be his last day on earth when he saw Ralph jumping into the basement with body full of blood. He looked like a blood bathed fiery werewolf with extreme hunger. Ric moved back in fear, yelling at the guards to open the exit door to escape but before he can finish his words Ralph shot at him and he collapsed on the floor holding his abdomen. Meanwhile Dylan and Milo finished his guards who are already injured by the explosion.At the same time they heard Klara’s voice followed by her loud scream and her body fell from the top, a total of fifteen foot height. “Fiona!”Cecelia looked over from the top screaming her name with face full of concern but no one noticed the malice in her eyes because of the smoke. Klara groaned in pain holding her belly. No! Her baby! She clutched her stomach, tears welled up in her eyes. Her leg is in extreme pain and so is her belly. The wood pieces sank into her skin but her focus is totally on her baby because she knew the
The air’s filled with the smell of gun powder and the smoke travelled to every corner of the farm house. Ralph sat in the living room staring at his bloody hands, his ears numb and the screams of his subordinates, the sounds of gun shots sounded so distant as he paralyzed for a moment realizing his actions. He killed a person in a brutal way and the blood thirst didn’t diminish least bit. He needs to end this right now. He can’t become a monster, not because of a woman who deceived him. He heard Milo's curse and turned to him who is loading his gun and snatched it from him. He stood up and fired, the bullet went right through Wang Chu's forehead. Milo and Dylan stood up in shock staring at Ralph with dropped jaws. What the fuck? They’re fighting their asses off to kill Wang Chu for over a minute but master did the job in the blink of an eye. Why didn't he react earlier? Gosh!!!Ralph inhaled deeply his eyes boring holes into the dead body of Wang Chu. Dylan and Milo approached R
Family is strength, power, support and emotional bonding but to Ralph it’s anything but strength. He used to be someone who could sacrifice his life to keep his family safe but after losing his mother, he's changed. His loss is unbearable and the betrayal of his family is intolerable. His past turned him into a cold hearted person and never once desired to have a family of his own because he’s scared of the loss. He’s not ready to take another blow and so he lived ten years alone, protecting himself from the binds of relationships but Klara ruined him.She stabbed him in the heart and turned him into a monster with her deception. He risked his clan which he painstakingly built for years only to become a fool at the end. He stepped on the accelerator exceeding the speed limit as he completely lost his rationality thinking about Klara’s pregnancy. All he can see is the colour red like a raging bull and only by killing Ric would his wrath calms down. He took out his guns from the gl
“Go to the top floor if you need answers. But now tell them to take me”Aurora is stunned hearing Klara’s words. Top floor? which means to Mr. Erikson. What did Mr. Erikson know about Fiona? She always wondered about how can Mr. Erikson who lived in the dark for ten years suddenly started to pamper a little girl who he never met in his life before. They are like father and daughter, always laughing, talking and painting together. She almost believed that Fiona is Mr. Erikson’s family because that’s how they looked when they are together.If Mr. Erikson trusts Fiona with his son then she’s definitely a trustworthy person. Thus she turned to Dylan taking a deep breath. Fiona is pregnant with Master’s child. Of course she wouldn’t lie about master’s safety. So they don’t need to doubt her. And also master went out alone and the way he left, she knew something’s wrong, so it’s better if Dylan and Milo had his back. “Dylan, do as Fiona says” “Aurora..how can you…”Milo shut his mo
Klara who is approaching Ralph in excitement stopped in her tracks after seeing him leave without a word. It’s been almost two months since they saw each other. Can’t he spare a minute or even few seconds for her? She didn’t even tell him about her pregnancy. Why the hell did he come if he wanted to leave early? What’s so urgent that he didn’t even take Dylan with him? Looking at his fury, she knew someone is going to die. Wait! That’s not important right now. Where was he all these days? And what is Cecelia doing with him? She didn’t see her around much in the fort for more than a month just like Ralph. She once heard Dylan telling Aurora that Ralph is staying out with Cecelia.She also heard them talking about someone cheating with Cecelia but she didn’t take their words into her heart because she trusted Ralph and Cecelia’s affairs are of not her concern. Ralph must be busy with something just like Dylan said. Maybe Ralph and Cecelia were both dealing with it together while Dyla
Author’s note :Hello cuties,I added more story to the previous chapter so please go through it once before reading new one. Love you all……Cecelia dreamed big, planned big and wanted to achieve big and her deeds are wicked and cruel but the result is not what she desired. She thought Ralph started accepting her, giving her an illusion of fantasy world when he wanted her to stay back with him in the warehouse but nothing happened as she anticipated.He stayed in his room and she has her own room. She tried to create few opportunities for herself to stay in his room but none worked. He’s oblivious to her efforts or pretending to be oblivious. Either way she can’t get close to him.She thought she won against all of the clan people but Ralph shattered her hopes with his rudeness. But still she pretended to be in relationship with Ralph in front of Dylan and Milo because they always mocked her and warned her that she should never dream of becoming his woman not even his mistress but
