Hindi maitago ni Vladimyr ang maaliwalas na ngiti sa mapula niyang labi matapos maging tagumpay ang pag alok niya sa dalawang bagong tauhan, na sumapi sa kaniyang grupo
'We can't deny that you are talented and have a stand for the word.'
When the two realized that they also had no other misfortune but such a life, the two chose to join Vladimyr's group instead of returning to their former boss who did not care about them.
That they are only seen as servants who should not be given value even if they die just to obey the command to them.
Vladimyr's group is not like that. She, herself, who is their boss, cares about her men.
When they agreed to Vladimyr's offer. They were immediately fed, cleansed of the body and signed an agreement that once they decided to resign from Vladimyr's leadership, they were to shut their mouths at all the activities they would witness. And if not, the life of their clan will be the compensation.
"Simula ngayon, Arcadius at Sebastian. Susundin niyo ng buong puso ang lahat ng ipag-uutos ko." Pormal na paalala ni Vladimyr sa dalawa. Nakatayo ang mga ito sa harap ng desk niya sa kanyang opisina.
"As you wish, Madam." Yumuko ang dalawa at nag-angat din ng tingin habang naghihintay ng utos ni Vlad.
"Nagpahanda ako ng breakfast sa garden. Let's eat breakfast together." Wika ni Vladimyr na may matamis na ngiti sa labi. Bakas ang tuwa sa maliwanag niyang mukha. Tumayo si Vladimyr at lumakad papunta sa pinto.
Behind her were the two new recruit men and the two guarding the office.
Ganito sila tuwing umaga. Sa garden nag-almusal lahat ng mga tauhan na pinahanda ni Vladimyr sa mga cook at helpers. Even her servants, do eat breakfast with her family.
Para kay Vladimyr, lahat ng taong nakatira sa loob ng bahay niya ay kabilang sa pamilya.
On a wide flowered garden, there is a set of ten long, glass tables, chairs and a set of table utensils, good for 20 seaters. The garden was covered with a brown tainted thick glass. A roof for the protection from rains and falling dried leaves of an old huge mango tree. Which gave a refreshing scent of ripe mangoes, and even a little shade and calm breeze from the timid swinging branches.
On the side was a huge basin filled with pork meat. Devoured by three gigantic like tigers. Which Vladimyr's beloved pets.
Sa mga gilid ay may mga nakatanim na mga bulaklak na may iba't-ibang kulay. At sa bandang gitna ay mga sunflowers na nagniningning ang dilaw nitong mga bulaklak sa ilalim ng malamig na sikat ng araw.
"Let's eat!"
Vladimyr gestured everyone to begin. She reached the glass of red wine on the side of her plate and took a small sip while watching them enjoying their breakfast.
Even the other servant has their tables to eat.
As Vladimyr watches them happily. She begins to eat with her children and the nanny.
"Mommy I don't like carrots, can you eat it for me?"
The small cute voice of a little girl, Gruzia, reached Vladimyr's ears. She turned her head to face her daughter and shook.
"No baby. You eat veggies okay, it's good for your beautiful eyes. Don't you like it clear like a diamond?" Masuyong tanong ni Vladimyr sabay karga sa anak na babae at pinaupo sa sariling hita.
"Do you like to eat with mommy?"
The little girl seemed to hesitate but her brother, Drak, insisted on eating the carrots.
"Mommy, let me eat it for Grusia"
Drak politely suggested.
"Are you sure, sweetie?"
"Yes mom."
"Madame, aren't we expecting less towards your enemies?"
Nag-angat ng tingin si Vladimyr sa nagsalita. Si Malia na nakatuon ang tingin sa kalye habang nag da drive.
On the way na si Vladimyr sa office niya this morning. Kailangan niya din magtrabaho at asikasuhin ang kompanyang iniwan ni Doña Luz sa kanya, 10 years ago.
Bahagyang napaisip si Vlad.
"What do you mean, Malia?" Casual niyang tanong habang abala ang mata sa pagbabasa ng mga dokumento sa folder.
"They keep on sending amateur assassins to hurt you, but whenever it happens they fail." May pag-aalala na sabi ni Malia sa mababang tono.
Pinasok muli ni Vladimyr ang folder sa isang bag ay kinuha naman ang kanyang laptop. Binuksan ito at nagsimulang mag type.
"Rather shut your mouth, Malia. I don't wanna hear your opinion about this." May diin ang salitang binitawan ni Vladimyr. Sinalubong niya ng makahulugang tingin ang mga mata ng dalawa na sumulyap sa rearview mirror.
Agad na natahimik si Malia at nagpasyang mag drive na;lang. Nakuha nila ang ibig ipahiwatig ni Vlad sa kanila, sa mga salitang binitawan nito.
Alam ni Malia na hindi ganun magsalita si ang boss nilang si Vladimyr, unless may gusto itong ipahiwatig ng 'di nahahalata.
And all they need is to catch it up quickly and obey.
Kanina pa napansin ni Vladimyr ang maliit na bagay na naka dikit sa gilid ng car door sa tabi niya. Hindi lang siya nag papahalata pero alam na alam niya kung ano ang bagay na yon.
Napapaisip tuloy siya kung ilan at kung saan saang lugar sa bahay niya nakalagay ang micro camera na tulad ng nandito sa sasakyan niya.
May nag i-ispiya sa kanya. Kung sino man yon, di siya sigurado. Kailangan niya ng bagong sasakyan at madala ang bagay na yon kay Noah. Si Noah lang ang pwedeng makatuklas kung sino ang nasa likod ng pag i ispiya.
"By the way, I need another ride, Malia, let's go to Leon's showroom"
Kaagad na sumagot ng buong paggalang si Malia. Pagdating nila sa isang u-turn slot ay agad niyang iniliko ang sasakyan.
Isang itim na Rolls-Royce biglang huminto sa pinaka-unahang parking spot sa harap ng showroom ng luxury cars, ang umagaw ng attention ng lahat ng taong nakakita nito.
Kung para sa mga ordinaryong tao na walang alam sa model ng sasakyan. Mabibighani sila sa ganda at iatilo nito pero sa mga may alam. Siguradong naglalaway na ang mga ito ngayon habang nakatingin sa mamahaling sasakyan na ito na may halong pagka inggit.
Pero lalong naglaway ang ilan sa mga lalaking nakakita na lumabas mula roon ang isang napakagandang babae na parang isang sikat ng araw sa umaga na nag liliwanag sa sobrang kinis at puti. Ang mapula niyang buhok na napakalambot. At sumasabay sa malamyos na ihip ng hangin.
Her lips tainted with darker shade of red adding a domineering and glamorous aura at the same time
Which is able to make the people around her shiver in the sense of fear.
She's hot and brightly shining like the morning sun but dark and gloomy at the same time.
'She's scary!'
Habang naglalaway ang mga kalalakihan. Wala namang paglagyan ang pagka inggit ng mga babae doon lalo na ang may kasamang gf o asawa.
Inggit na sana ganun din sila kaganda.
Inis dahil agaw atensyon ang presensya niya.
"Asan ang amo mo?" Deretsa pero ma-otorisado niyang tanong sa guard. Paglapit niya sa kinatatayuan nito.
"M-Madam!"
"Where's Leon?" Kaagad na tanong ni Vlad sa guard na bahagya pang nagulat sa pagsasalita niya. Kasunod ang pamumutla at pagpapawis nito dahil sa kaba. Kilala ng guard si Vladimyr bilang prankang tao. Ayaw nito nasasayang ang oras niya lalo na kapag importanteng bagay. Dagdag pa ang nakaka kaba na katangian nito na palaging pinapaalala ng boss nila sa kanila na mga dapat gawin kapag nandito si Vladimyr. "M-madam..." Nangangatog na sambit nito. Napailing na lang si Vladimyr dahil sa ikinilos ng guard ni Leon. "Never mind." Hindi na inintindi ni Vladimyr ang guard. Nag-alala siyang baka maihi pa ito sa sobrang takot. Dumer
'It's simply too difficult to manage with this kind of existence.' 'There is no secure haven for you or your family to live in peace. 'Even the air you breathe could be tainted with a toxin that could kill you. 'However, you can't always conceal in order to stay secure.' 'To deal with these threats, endure, and conquer, you must be astute.' Tibayan mo ang sikmura mo at tatagan mo ang loob mo. Or else you'll end up vanquished, terminated. Dead.' "LISA, find an escape." Kalmado na utos ni Vladimyr kay Lisa noon ay nakatuon ang buong atensyon sa harap ng laptop at walang tigil sa pag ta-type. Habang naghahanap ng tamang daan kung saan pwedeng takasan ang mga sumusunod na sasakyan ng mga kalaban sa kanila. Binigyan ng tipid na tango ni Lisa si Vladimyr bilang tugon sa utos nito habang nakapikit naman si Vladimyr na halatang nag iisip ng malalim. Ngunit batid ni Lisa kung gaa
Even though there are only five men left, there are still a number of them hanging around, looking for an opportunity to attack. These men are determined to apprehend all three of them. They are far too consistent to fulfill the order. Pero, hindi iyon mapapayagan ni Vladimyr, wala sa hinagap ng mga ito ay magaganap ang plano ng mga ito na pabagsakin siya o mahuli siya ng ganun kadali. She won't be the boss if she can be easily captured by these amateur thugs they sent. Hawak ang dalawang baril. Vladimyr glances out from her hiding location, loaded with a bunch of shots, to see whether there is an opponent waiting for them to emerge. There are still a lot of them out there, so she can't afford to be negligent. Vladimyr is aware that it is still unsafe for
"Ethan tracked my location." Agad na sambit ni Vladimyr matapos niyang marinig ang tunog ng received call tone mula sa kabilang linya. Ibig sabihin na-receive ni Ethan ang call niya matapos ang ilang ring nito. Habang dinig ni Vladimyr ang hindi mabilang na yabag na paparating sa direksyon ng pinagtataguan nilang tatlo, ay naghihintay pa rin si Vladimyr ng sagot mula kay Ethan sa kabilang linya. Pero may ilang segundo na ay di pa rin sumasagot si Gen. Smith. Vladimyr turned into a total abashment for a second, as she tried to speak again just to clarify her suspicions. Ethan would immediately answer the call if 'he' saw it, but if not,this is what will happen.
Hindi alam ni Vlad kung darating si Ethan agad, pero nasisisguro niyang darating ito. Kilala niya ang ugali ni Ethan. Pagdating sa mga importanteng bagay, hindi ito nagdadalawang isip kumilos sa abot mg kaniyang makakaya. Sinipat ni Vladimyr ang isa pang baril na hawak niya. May ilan pa itong natitirang bala. Sapat pa para protektahan ang sarili at kasama niya, ng sandaling panahon. Muling ibinalik ni Vladimyr ang magazine ng baril at ikinasa habang alerto na nakamasid ang kaniyang mga mata sa paligid. Ayaw niyang maupo nalang doon at maghintay sa wala. Habang tumatakbo ang bawat minuto, lalong nanganganib ang buhay ni Lisa kaya kailangan niyang maka alis sa lugar na ito agad. Hinubad ni Vladimyr ang kanyang suit saka pinasuot kay Lisa, dinampot niya ang isa sa mga baril at walang pag aalinlangan lumabas mula sa pinagtataguan nilang tatlo.
Hindi porket mabait ka ibig sabihin okay lang sa'yo na tapak tapakan ka.Di ibig sabihin lahat ng foul na bagay palalampasin mo.Di ibig sabihin, ignorante ka at hahayaan mo lang sila na magpatuloy na saktan ka.There's always limitations to everything.Hindi bottomless ang pasensya.- Vlad---"Ang sabi ko naman sa'yo Sir Lucien kaya ko na mag p
Pilig sa kaliwa, pilig sa kanan.Lahat na yata ng sulok ng king size niyang kama ay naikutan ni Lucien.It was almost 3 am in the morning but still, gising na gising pa ang diwa niya.Napalingon si Lucien sa ilang boteng wine na nainom niya kagabi at isang boteng vodka para antukin pero ang naging ending,pumipintig ang sintido niya at sumakit lang ang ulo niya pero di pa rin siya dalawin ng antok.He was worried.Worried for the woman he should be hating!Pabagsak na muling humiga si Lucien sa kama. Kinuha ang malambot na unan sa tabi
Pumipintig sa makirot na sintido ang gumising kay Lucien mula sa malalim na tulog. Pagmulat niya ng mga mata. Nanlalabo pa ito pero naaaninag niya ang beige na interior ng kotse niya at ang nakakasilaw na liwanag mula sa bintana sa labas.Di niya maintindihan kung anong ginagawa niya sa kotse niya gayung sa pagkakatanda niya ay bumaba siya dito at….Biglang napabalikwas ng bangon si Lucien at inikot ang paningin sa paligid. Ramdam niya ng pagkilos at pagtalbog ng sasakyan na para bang nasa malubak silang daan.'My car is……moving?''Someone is driving my car!'Fuck!Nahihilo man ay pinilit ni Lucien na i-focus ang sarili para alamin kung sinong naglakas ng loob na i-drive ang sasakyan niya. Hindi naman niya isinama ang driver niyang sa Casper."Hey….hey! Who are you?—"
When the two approached her, they immediately dressed her in white dress that the two was carrying, as if they did not care about her reaction. "W-what are you two doing?" Vlex hushed her which made her pressed her lips thin and just watch the two to what they are doing, cluelessly. Halter strap neckline and the trail is incredibly big and long. Like twenty meters long. "Just wear it sis, you should wear it." Vraq ordered her and she just let them. "Are you really going to dress me outside, Sis?" Vladimir ask with amusement. "Don't complain, okay." Vraq sneered. Vlex just laughs at her reaction. After Vladimyr put on the white gown, the two carefully arranged her long skirt as if she were a new bloomed white flower. "There, let's go sis." Vlex stated and the two holds her hand. Helping her to walk towards the center of the men holding their swords, up. Only now did she noti
“VLADIMYR! Vladimir f*CK where are you? ” full of frustration Lucien's call echoes as he went through all the corpses he could find around.He is sure this is the right direction. Includes Casper, Max and Asmodeus. They entered the Lutherford mansion because of the location they got with Max’s help."This way dude!" Max called as they rush towards the direction that the tracker was pinning.Lucien was going crazy with worry. What was going through his mind. Extreme fear engulfed him. Vladimyr was careless. He knew full well that it didn’t care what happened to him. If he only knew this was where it was going, he would make sure it didn’t take off. Even if a battalion of its personnel blocks him and he is ready to fight. Now, he feels he is so far away from her."Vladimir!" he called again as loud as he can.“This room—”Even before Max had finished what he was going to say, Lucien kicked the do
Vladimyr stood up from the spot she was hiding when she can't see any men standing, her brows met after seeing a number of dead bodies lauing on the hallway's floor. She disappointedly analyzes the dead bodies of the men laying on the floor filled with their own bloods and a gun wound was seen on their head. Vladimyr thought that it was from Lisa's sniper team.Vladimyr hurried to the target room but even before she could grasp the lock, a series of gunshots greeted her again from behind the door. She immediately jumped away from the door and hid on the side to avoid the raining bullets coming from the room.“You really are annoying Dela Claire! You have the guts to hunt me in my own territory huh? I won't let you get away! We will destroy you first! ” the woman furiously squeal from inside the room.After hearing those rants of the woman inside the room, Vladimyr couldn't stop herself from chuckling, “Are you surprised, Mrs. Lutherford?
Lucien couldn't do anything when Vladimyr's car left him. Disappointed, he sat down in the gutter of the road and frustratedly rubbed his face by his palm. He couldn't do anything on Vladimyr's men when they pulled him away of their boss's car. Just one order from Vladimyr, they will obey her like just a flick of her finger.“Boss it looks like we just have to wait for her to come back." With the tone of disappointment, Casper stated.“No. We will not wait for her to return. We need to know where she is going. I have a strong feeling that she will put her life in jeopardy again. ”"But boss, how do we know?"Lucien looked up at Casper. He remembered a person that is close to him."We'll find a way to track her possible location." Lucien said looking at Casper. He then, hurriedly took his cellphone from his pocket and dialed his friend’s the number. After a while, the man's raspy voice answered."Luci?""M
Vladimyr's days have not been easy. She couldn't help herself from crying every time she remembered what happened to Luvien's disappearance, after ten years. When she is currently pregnant with the twins. Waiting and hoping that somehow they will meet Luvien again—or at least he would find her.Furthermore, she was always quiet, she's not talking to anyone. She always confined herself to the room and cry all her grievance. Apparently, regardless of what she does, everything seems hard to sink into her system. With everything she found out, her heart and mind can't easily take the truth. Every time she remembered those things about what the fake Luvien said, she couldn't help but sigh.Every day, she can't to focus herself on her work. If she wasn't busy, she would suddenly start crying on her desk, calling Luvien's name again. She feels the endless bitterness of the pain, she feels as if it never stops.She is drowning in pure loneliness and lo
“P-patay...n-na siya? P-paanong...” She couldn't believe it. She felt something hit her chest hard and affected her breathing. Her mind is screaming. No! “Why didn't I even know he was gone? Why haven't I even heard of it? No one even told me he's gone ...” Vladimyr uttered with disappointment and grief. She couldn't believe what Lucien had said, she doesn't want to believe it. Not, until she saw a sorrowful tears fell from his eyes. Those news immediatdly brought destruction to her soul, to her heart and to her only hope that one day she will meet her beloved Luvien again. He will have a chance to meet his children, the twins. And they can live together. That's her great wish. To let the twin met their father. But now the only wish she had will never come true. She thought then, when they met the Luvien she knew, it can lessened her worries for her children. If her time came that she's g
Vlad’s right brow twitched.She doesn’t even know about Luvien’scondition. He doesn't say anything to her about the sickness."He has a heart disease ...""What have I got to do with his illness?"“Listen baby I don’t mean to fool you. I didn't mean to hurt you I didn't mean to lie. Believe it. At first I wanted to retaliate against you because I thought you were the reason but many things happened that revealed in my eyes that you are innocent. That you know nothing of what is going on and you are a good person. Please ... Please believe me.I love you so much. ” Lucien begged at Vladimyr, trying to get closer to her but a sudden gunshots echoes the whole living room and a surprised gasp was heard behind him.Lucien automatically turned around and immediately widened his eyes when he saw to whom Vladimyr's gun was pointed.Lucien
Vladimyr moved the rocking chair softly and leaned back comfortably. She didn't go to the office today because she feels bad. So she chose to stay at her home first to relax. Vlad picked the glass of milk on the glass table then gulped a little. And the vegetable donut Lucien made for her and her kids before he went to work. She allowed herself to relax and indulge in the beautiful view from her green yard. Where you can see tall trees of various fruits, plants and colored flowers. The clear blue sky with a slight streak of haze. Vlad closed her eyes and feel the silence while she inhales the fresh air, filled with flower and fruits scent. She relaxed her self a moment, when she felt a presence came. It was smooth and quiet. "What do you need?" she asked in a plain tone. It was Malia, based on how she move quietly. “Madame, Mr. Mendoza and General Smith want to talk to you. ”
Vladimyr woke up early the next day. A warm beaming of morning sunlight that penetrate the thin white curtains came through and it awaken her from a her good sleep.Vladimyr push her self up to sat in her soft and heavenly comfortable bed. There's no sign of her beloved man beside her and she frowns."Where is he?" she roam her gaze around their room. To check if he's still there. But there’s no sign of ‘Luvien’Vladimyr got up from the bed even though she’s still drowsy. She went straight to the bathroom to check it. But the bathroom was open so she knew no one was there.Vladimyr sat up in bed again. She feels heavy now. She was dizzy and the bed seemed to be pulling her back. But, she didn’t want to go to sleep just yet. She has been like this for a few days and she feels even weaker. She breathed an airy sigh and starts walking towards the door with a heavy mood.
