Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion For one night
The day Amethyst didn't want to come has come. Even though Amethyst didn't want to move, she got up from her bed and started doing her daily routine. Her mother and aunt are also going to the engagement, so she is not that nervous.The divorce between her mother and father is finally settled. Because of the power of money, it is processed quickly. Meanwhile, her aunt did not ask for anything from her brother Carl. It was because her mother had something left for her. Well, only the three of them knew about it, so they weren't worried about Carl finding out either. After all, it is also a large amount.Amethyst sat alone in an empty room, her heart a battlefield of resignation and simmering anger. She couldn't help but stare at the void. Being in a daze somehow makes her feel sane. If she wasn't in a daze, Amethyst felt like she was going to go completely crazy. The air was heavy with the weight of the impending ceremony—a union that was less a celebration and more a grim contract. The

As Carl turned away, Amethyst's cold, resolute words hung in the air. This is not the first time she lets them see this kind of part of her, but it looks like they are still not used to it.On the other hand, Larry, standing behind his father, felt a strange unease at the way his sister spoke. He knew something was wrong, and he also knew what could happen once they cut ties with Amethyst. Also, Larry could not lose the feeling that there was a finality in her tone, a determination that seemed out of place. He wanted to say something, to question this unexpected steel in her voice, but the swift agreement from Carl stifled him.It seems that Amethyst has no intention of changing her mind. It's not that he wants his sister to change her mind; he just wants to maximize the benefits they can get from marrying the man of their choice."Fine," Carl said, waving his hand dismissively. It was like he didn't care at all. "After the wedding, we're strangers." Nodding his head, he shrugged it o

After the meeting, Venna and Maureen lingered in the office, their nerves still frayed from the tense atmosphere. They turned on the TV, as was their habit, to catch the news and see if anything relevant to the mafia world or their operations was being reported.The others didn't speak because this was what they were used to doing with women in their mafia. There are only three women in the upper echelon of La Xiena, so they let them do what they want as long as it doesn't harm La Xiena's interests.Now that Amethyst has quit, there's only Venna and Maureen left. Even though Amethyst's position is vacant, they still have no intention of replacing Amethyst. After all, Amethyst has been with them since the beginning, and even though she has quit already, she still has a place in it.They immediately felt bored when they watched the usual news on TV. Nothing has changed; most of it is still about the government. The usual headlines flashed by—political scandals, economic updates, local c

The tension in Dylan's office was thick, suffocating. It was like a hand that choked them until they were unable to breathe. This is not the first time, but they hope this is the last time they will feel it. Dylan's aura is really no joke, and if this continues, they will surely suffer.Venna and Maureen had delivered their painful truths, and the weight of their words hung heavily in the air. They didn't finish the words they said to Dylan. At that time, for them, the more painful, the better. This is for Dylan to calm down from what is happening because, during this storm, they knew that it wasn't the end. They knew there was an even stronger storm coming their way.Dylan's anger, once a blazing inferno, began to subside into a cold, hard resolve. Little by little, he realized everything just based on what Venna and Maureen said. In his mind, they're right. Half of it is indeed his negligence, and it is normal for them to blame him. His eyes, once wild with fury, now reflected a dee

Amethyst sat on the edge of her bed, the room cloaked in the soft darkness of the night. She felt like this was all her dream—no, a nightmare.The hum of the city outside was distant, almost dreamlike, as she stared at the packed suitcase by the door. She couldn't help but feel the weight of tomorrow pressing down on her, making her chest tight with a mix of emotions she could barely contain.Sure, she doesn't want to get married. However, if this is the last chance to make her mother and aunt feel safe and free, then she'll do it. She'll do it even if it will cause her freedom.Well, that's not the only reason. One of the things that Amethyst is holding on to are Dylan's last words. Yes, it hurts, but if this is the only way, then maybe that's okay. Amethyst has gaslighted herself many times just to cheer herself up because, otherwise, she would have run off with her mother and aunt a long time ago.Maybe also, at this time, they are wanted, and they are like criminals being pursued

Amethyst just sighed as silence returned around her. After talking with her mother and aunt, Amethyst made sure they were comfortable in their beds and stayed with them until they fell asleep. Because she doesn't want them to see that she is not her and is at ease with what is happening to them now. Even though Amethyst told them not to worry and that she was okay even if they weren't, she knew that those two would worry and still worry. After all, those two are two of the most important people in her life. She didn't want them to see that she was struggling. It's better if they don't know that she is struggling in her life.The house was quiet and almost made her feel like she's losing her sense of hearing; the only sounds were the gentle breathing of the AC and the occasional creak and tic-tac of the old wooden clock in the room.Amethyst returned to the living room, sitting back on the sofa, her mind racing with thoughts of the impending wedding. She wrapped a blanket around her sh

The grand hall was filled with the soft murmur of guests, the glint of crystal chandeliers, and the quiet rustle of expensive fabric. This is the most anticipated event in Amethyst's father's life. With the number of benefits he will get after marrying Amethyst, he will really wait for this day to come. Not only that, he also did everything he could to watch over Amethyst because he knew that even if she agreed, there was still a chance that she would run away.For Carl, he felt happy. It's good that her daughter has gotten used to him.Amethyst stood by Jonathan Reid, her soon-to-be husband, in a fitted white gown that shimmered with every movement. Despite the grandeur of the event, her eyes searched the crowd with cold innocence. Jonathan Reid doesn't know why he sometimes feels like someone is watching him, and when he turns his eyes, there is no one else around but Amethyst.At that time, Jonathan doubted if there was anyone else around besides the two of them.

It didn't take long for Jonathan and Amethyst to be busy again as they received guesses. Amethyst has yet to see her family apart from her mother and aunt, but she is sure they are just looking for a chance to talk to her. Well, Amethyst thinks that Carl can see at this time the things that he may lose if he cuts ties with Amethyst. However, Amethyst didn't care about that.She really wants to get the hell out of this family as soon as possible. Since the divorce between his mother and his father is also valid, there is no longer any hope that he will be in the palm of his father's hand. That's his biggest regret in life—that he didn't hold on to the two women in his life who could have given him more money.His ego is too much, after all.Amethyst stood in front of Lia, Maureen, and Venna, who approached her again to give greetings, gifts, and their messages. Well, this set-up was normal again, so Jonathan just watched them. Also, Jonathan doesn't want to make a mess either. Amethyst

In order for them to talk more properly, Amethyst immediately took Dylan to where he was staying. Amethyst led Dylan down a narrow path to a small, cozy house nestled among the trees.

Dylan rarely gets to see it, so as Amethyst leads Dylan to where it's staying, Dylan can't help but be impressed.When they got to the house, Dylan looked at it.

When the fire was extinguished on the floor where Amethyst's ward was, leaving the smoky ruin, they were sure it was safe. When the firefighters entered, Dylan didn't give up, so they didn't do anything but put on the firefighters' protective gear. They knew it was illegal, but they couldn't do anything because it was Dylan.Even so, when he arrived at the very floor of Amethyst's ward, he was not allowed inside the building because it was still hot. He stood at the edge of the scene; his eyes were red and filled with wild, desperate hope. He knows that there is a good chance that Amethyst is gone, but he is still clinging to the hope that Amethyst will not leave him.It didn't take long; his heart almost dropped when he saw firefighters holding a stretcher with a body wrapped around it."No," Dylan said softly.

Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion Please save her
When Dylan came out of Amethyst's room, his heart was heavy with conflicting emotions. He clenched his fist and couldn't help but feel the pain. He took out his phone and dialed Nathan and Alex's numbers. His fingers were still trembling. He wanted to be happy, but he was still worried.When they answered, he barely managed to get the words out of his mouth. "Meet me at my condo," he said, his voice hoarse. "I have something to tell you guys."When Nathan and Alex heard this, they didn't hesitate to go to Dylan's condo. With what is happening now with Dylan, they really need to observe. Just because they killed everyone who went against Dylan's wishes didn't mean that everything was fine.When Nathan and Alex arrived, they found Dylan at his kitchen counter, a bottle of whiskey in his hand. Dylan looked at them, and they didn't know what to feel. Dylan looked up at them with bloodshot eyes and a haunted look on his face."The fuck? What the hell are you doing right now, Dylan?” Nathan

Amethyst hesitates to enter Amethyst's room in the hospital owned by their mafia. It was in the middle of the night, and he always visited him at a time like this. He felt that he couldn't visit Amethyst in the morning because he couldn't face Amethyst's mother and aunt. He knew that even though they knew the reason why Amethyst agreed to get married, even though Dylan knew that they wouldn't blame him for this, with his conscience, he couldn't help but feel that these were all his fault.He felt like a coward, like a man who had failed her in every possible way.Take a deep breath before opening the door. He opened it very gently and stepped inside. The room is as gloomy as it was before and was only dimly lit by the light from the moon outside that entered through the window.Dylan also immediately saw Amethyst; as usual, she was still sitting and staring out the window. She is staring outside with a distant look, her mind seemingly lost in a far-off place. It was like she wasn't st

Two weeks.Two weeks passed, and Amethyst's situation was still the same; nothing had changed. She was still trapped in her own world. The other one of the doctors, if there is anything that can bring him back to reality, is if he is heard or given what he wants. But no one knows it.For two weeks, the only thing sustaining nutrients in Amethyst's body were the IV drips. Amethyst has lost weight, and her face can no longer look like it used to. He changed too much.Her once vibrant presence that could bring energy to everyone was like a bubble that suddenly disappeared; it was now a ghostly shell. If you look at it, when his eyes are closed because they don't respond, he looks like he's comatose. If it was open, her eyes stared vacantly into the distance, as if her mind were traveling as far as her eyes. Unseeing and unresponsive.When Nancy and Alice found out what happened to Amethyst, when they were able to leave their hiding place, they i
Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion I'm sorry, I was late
Dylan stared for a few moments at the lifeless bodies of Jonathan and the woman who died for him. Both of them lay crumpled on the floor, but Dylan had no intention of changing his position. Dylan only stood in front of them with a sneer on his lips. Even though he didn't feel like winning, he still couldn't help but be sneered at.Jonathan's face, once twisted in anger, is now frozen in shock and pain. Of course, Dylan didn't give him a chance to recover from his emotions. Miranda's face, however, looked soft and as if it were ready to die."Pathetic," Dylan muttered, shaking his head and mockingly looking at them. He knows that he has also committed many sins, but these two people are much worse than him. That is what he thinks. "He loved her enough to let her die for him, but he still married another woman." Dylan shook his head and then looked emotionlessly at the two bodies lying on the floor. "No respect at all."Dylan ignored it and started walking away from Jonathan's corpse.
Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion It's over
If you look at Jonathan's entire mansion, it shows its destruction. Some expensive items were broken, and some furniture worth millions was wasted. Anyway, Dylan didn't care about it. All that was on his mind was to save Amethyst. Meanwhile, some of his staff are regretting it because they can benefit others if they sell.Of course, they are still in the right frame of mind to not use things that their opponent has outgrown. However, they wanted to sell it so that they could have extra money.In one part of the mansion, the dim light of the burning mansion cast flickering shadows on the walls. It's obvious that Dylan has no intention of leaving anything in the mansion.

And of course, it was led by L.K., the strongest spy of the La Xiena Mafia inside the La Victima Mafia.Dylan was standing in a corner. Dust and smoke filled the air, and
