Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion I'm leaving
When Amethyst woke up, she didn't waste any more time.Amethyst stepped into La Xiena headquarters, her movements purposeful despite the early hour. She actually planned to go early because she knew there weren't many people at this time. The building was silent, a stark contrast to its usual lively atmosphere. She carried a stack of documents, the weight of them matching the heaviness in her heart. She made her way to Venna and Maureen's offices, each step echoing in the quiet corridors.Now that she was ready to leave, she couldn't help but feel a heavy feeling in her chest.When Amethyst arrived at their office, she immediately saw Venna and Maureen, who had big eyebags like her two friends. She didn't know if she would laugh at their looks or not. After all, they look like they're too tired.Venna looked up from her desk, her expression shifting from surprise to concern. "Amethyst, what brings you here so early?"Because they know that this is not the time for Amehtyst to enter. T

The next day, Amethyst remembered that she had another reason why she went to the headquarters, which is why she returned early again. Amethyst moved swiftly through the quiet corridors of La Xiena headquarters; if yesterday the weight of documents was in her arms, today it was the weight of what she would say. The weight of the documents in her arms yesterday was almost a mirror of the burden in her heart.She entered Venna and Maureen's offices, her face set in a determined expression. The two women looked up, surprised to see her so early. Amethyst was sure that they would talk about backing out again, so she took the lead."Nope, not going to back up," Venna laughed because of this immediately, Amethyst said."So, no good morning?" Maureen was teasing."Good morning," Amethyst said, and she raised an eyebrow at the two. "What? You haven't slept yet?”Maureen groaned. "Well, you know how much work we had." Maureen looked at Amethyst. "It's definitely worse once you leave," she adde

Amethyst took a deep breath, gathering her strength for what she had to say next. Venna and Maureen, still reeling from the conversation, watched her intently. Both of them were nervous because they felt that their heads would hurt even more the next time Amethyst told them.'No way,' said Venna and Maureen in their minds.Amethyst smiled at them, and this time, her smile seems like a genuine one, not a mask that hides her true feelings. "I want to move on," Amethyst began, her voice steady but soft. This is what she has wanted for a long time, and since the last hope she held on to her love for Dylan has been cut off, Amethyst just wants to be far away from this person. "I need a peaceful life, away from the blood and illegalities. I've had enough of this world."She needed it, but that doesn't mean she will leave it. After all, she stayed in the mafia world for several years, and this is what Amethyst considers the norm in her life.Venna and Maureen exchanged a glance, their eyes r

Maureen and Venna were just going to the conference room, where, out of nowhere, Dylan called a meeting. The two do not see any reason why he is calling a meeting, and they think there is only one reason for this: the loss of Amethyst's documents and proof of their existence in their system.Well, Venna wasn't surprised that Dylan found out, but they were both surprised because it took so long before they noticed.One week.A week before, they noticed that all the documents, information, and anything related to Amethyst were gone, and now, in the middle of the night, Dylan called a meeting. They don't have a war right now, which is why Venna is sure that this is about the loss of documents and information regarding Amethyst.Well, they are ready to be questioned and interrogated by Dylan; that's why they are not nervous. It was also his fault that Amethyst made this decision.When Venna and Maureen arrived inside the conference room, they immediately felt the heavy and tense atmospher

When the meeting ended, no one spoke. They just watched as Dylan left the conference room without a word. They don't know what they should feel because, first of all, they know the reason why Dylan was like that to Amethyst, but that doesn't justify the hurtful words that Dylan said to Amethyst.In his apartment, Dylan was a mess. This is the first time Nathan and Alex have seen Dylan like this. When there was a threat to Amethyst's life, it didn't happen; she was still calm. It was because he still had a lot of ways to protect her. However, right now, there are none. On top of it, she's going to get married.Broken glasses, overturned furniture, and scattered papers were everywhere. It bore the testament of Dylan's fury. Dylan knows that it's all his fault that this is happening and that he shares in Amethyst's struggles, but he can't help but feel whatever emotions he's feeling right now.Sadness, fury, and self-blame.Dylan's breath is heavy; he's standing in the middle of the chao

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

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. This is the only house that no one lives in, and the owner also lets him live in it because his son is not there to take care of the house. Because the house needs to be taken care of so that it doesn't get damaged immediately.Because it was the afternoon that Dylan arrived, the change in the sky could be seen immediately. The evening sun cast a warm glow over the village, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene. 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. The house wasn't old, but it wasn't the kind of house he wanted Amethyst to live in either. For Dylan, all the best must be given to Amethyst. Amethyst deserves all the best; that's why the house that Amethyst lives in now is not pe
Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion Reunion
Now that he knows that Amethyst is still alive, his determination has never wavered, and his hope has raised even more. He never stopped looking for Amethyst. For seven grueling months, he poured a lot of resources and effort into finding Amethyst; even one day, he didn't stop until he got any information about Amethyst's whereabouts.With many sleepless nights and a lot of information coming in, most of it is not true. However, one day, one of his private investigators called him and said that he had the same information. A private investigator said that all the leads he got led him to a small, secluded village far from the city. The private investigator has not yet confirmed if it was true or not, but he wanted Dylan to know about it. Since he's not updating Dylan on everything he had to say, Dylan felt that his words were even more solid than those who reported him with wrong information.When Dylan received the tip from this private investigator about Amethyst's location, he did n
Roses and Gunfire: The Price of Devotion He fired the last shot
When Dylan brought Nancy and Alice to the front of the headquarters, he immediately returned. As he turned away, the smile he was giving to Amethyst's mother and aunt disappeared. Right now, he is happy because there is a chance that Amethyst is still alive. Now, all he had to do was find it.He will really do his best to find her.Dylan went to the floor with the elders by his side. Those old people are the ones who have always supported his decision. However, if they could do something, he wouldn't hesitate to punish them as well. Punishments are the same at all levels. It's more severe in the higher ranks because they need to be controlled.As Dylan walks the dimly lit corridors of La Xiena Mafia, he can't help but think about the things he should be doing. This is also one of the reasons why he will talk to those old people. To also get their suggestions and ideas.When Dylan was approaching the office room of the old geezers, he knew there was someone there. It was because the so

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. His whisper made him tremble, and he shook his head violently. "No, it can't be her," he added.When they got down, they couldn't help but ask Dylan's face for meaning. When t
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. It is also said that Dylan asked some of his subordinates to go and retrieve some important documents in Jonathan's office that Jonathan did not find. 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
