The Crimson Trail of Death Tension and Games
[Adrian's POV]I felt her gaze on me as I treated the bruises on her skin, returning the first aid kit after."Try to get some rest now. I will handle everything; don't worry," I said, leaving the room after. I made my way outside the mansion, walking to the courtyard. I grabbed a shotgun in a swift mode, aiming it as I shot without blinking.But yet, that did little to calm me down."I thought you didn't like hunting," a voice caught my attention, and my eyes landed on Uncle Gavin approaching me."I still don't; I just need something to calm my anger down a bit," I said, releasing another shot."I know you must be angry about what Lucas did to Sierra. I mean, I stood quite shocked to know he could even think of such a thing and try it here in Marc's mansion. It was a death-welcoming for him," Uncle Gavin said."I am not angry because of what he did to Sierra, Uncle Gavin," I said, watching an exclaimed look on Uncle Gavin's face. "Wait, why are you angry then?" he questioned."I foun

Elena and I had been friends right when my dad had brought me and my brother here to stay with my uncle. Those days were when I would sneak out of the mansion, tired of the cruel acts, only to bump into Elena one day at the doorstep."Dad just killed Mom," she kept on mumbling at our mansion doorstep.Elena's dad was a drug lord, feared in his territory, but yet, all knew he was no match for Uncle Marc's and still showed respect whenever around him.Her dad killing her mom was a sight I knew she could possibly find hard to forget. I had to help her out of it while also trying to help my weak brother, who now thinks he's the great one.Each day, she would wake up screaming like hell. I guess she wasn't used to the real world back then. All I could remember last was her traveling out of the country to go stay with her mom's family. Well, that was what Uncle Marc's said.But yet, it stood shocking to gaze upon her today after the many years, and yet it feels like it hadn't been that long

[Dominic's POV]Walking through the hall, my ears caught a buzz, and I pulled out my phone. My gaze landed on the caller ID; it was Nate. Why could he be calling me? Was something up with the club? Well, I hoped it wasn't anything too serious. I didn't leave him in charge for nothing.I picked up the call. "What happened, Nate? Why are you calling?" I questioned, hoping to get straight to the point."Well, I'm sorry that I didn't inform you about this before, boss, but there has been an issue lately," he said."Issue? What issue, Nate?" My brow raised, anticipating his response."Well, there have been four breaches in the contracts and two escapes lately," he explained."What?!" I yelled, trying to maintain my calm demeanor afterward. "I'm sorry, boss. One of the workers killed a client, two drugged a client, and two more escaped after figuring out some of our dealings," Nate continued."What do you mean, Nate? Can't you handle things with me being away for a few days?" I demanded."I

[Sierra's POV]I stepped out of the bathroom after washing my face from the bloodstains. I found it hard to rest my head; my mind was still reeling from the incident that just occurred. I could tell from the silence that echoed around that the party had ended and everyone had left the mansion. Well, that was expected, but I couldn't shake off the feeling that he would kill his own nephew just like that, in a single shot. His eyes showed no remorse for it. They were truly all devils known by their name, and such wouldn't hesitate to kill a common stranger.I should really be careful from now on. It seems keeping a low profile would have to stay much longer if I wanted to leave to carry out my revenge. I can't let him find out that I am after Dominic and that the marriage between Adrian and I is just a contract marriage. I can't imagine what he would do after finding out.My ears caught a knock on my door, which jolted me up from the bed. "Who's there?" I questioned, receiving no answer

My ears grasp on a whisper, which was louder, as a bump on the mansion entrance door caught my attention, and my eyes landed on Adrian, brought in by one of the helpers."Please, be careful, sir," she uttered, trying to maintain his staggering manner. From his darting legs and mumbling words, I could tell that he was drunk."Oh, my Adrian!" A yell escaped as I watched a hand on Adrian push the helper away. "I can take him in myself." My gaze landed on the same girl who had bumped into me at the party, the same one who called herself his friend—Elena, or what was her name again?But then her heel slipped, landing on the couch afterward with her shutting up immediately.But why was she still in the mansion? The party had ended, and everyone had left. I could tell they both had too much to drink. He had stopped me from drinking at the party, claiming the ideal wife stuff, but he was allowed to do what he liked, limiting my own choices."Hey, what are you thinking?" A snap drew my attenti

[Adrian's POV]Chuckles echoed loudly; my vision blurred from it all—two men arguing, or were there three? No, four..."I shall expose you and your brother; your whole family shall burn to ashes, Victor.""You don't have to do this, Mr. Patrick Elias. Stay out of all this and look after your precious family," I heard my father say.A painful slice slammed through my brain, causing my eyes to jolt open. I found myself in my room, confused about what had happened yesterday. The last thing I could remember was going to get some drinks. No, wait... I remembered entering the mansion."But why does my head hurt so much? I mean, I was quite used to drinking, except... could she--" I whispered, murmuring to myself, trying to put things together. My only thought was of Elena and the guess that she mixed my drinks with some pills.I stood up from the bed after, hoping to question her as I opened my room door, only to feel a pulse on me as my eyes caught sight of Elena already at my room doorstep

"What are you doing here, Adrian?" A voice caught my attention as my eyes landed on Uncle Gavin."I thought Sierra had gone to call you downstairs," he said.I guessed that's why she was there. "For what, Uncle Gavin?" I questioned."Well, dinner is ready, and Marc insists you all come down.""Alright, Uncle Gavin. I shall freshen up first, then come down," I said, watching Uncle Gavin leave a nod as he turned, hoping to leave after. "Uncle Gavin, do you happen to know anybody by the name 'Patrick Elias' and what connection he had with my father?" I blurted, watching a halt in his legs as his gaze turned to meet mine. I caught sight of a pale look, which flickered in an instant, replaced by a forced smile. "I don't have any idea who that is, Adrian," he said sharply, but yet I couldn't find myself to believe what Uncle Gavin was saying."Alright, Uncle Gavin," I said, and he left afterward."Was he truly telling the truth? Could Uncle Gavin be lying?" I thought, confused. Was it just

[Sierra's POV]Watching Adrian leave, my mind still lingered on his words, mentioning my dad. How does he know my dad's name?I wondered through my thoughts, but I guessed that maybe he found out. I mean, just like he knew about my uncle and everything about me when he brought up the deal.I just had to shake off the thoughts, and I was sure he didn't recall anything that occurred last night either.Well, I just wanted to forget it as well. My gaze shifted to Elena, who was lying on the bed. I had recalled seeing him beside her when I was making my way to in, as he helped her into the bed."Did she faint or what?" I made my way, walking through the hall after, when my eyes landed on Adrian, who was walking past me as he made his way back into the room.I couldn't help but notice Dominic's absence for a while now. Where could he possibly be, and what was he up to? I needed to keep my eyes on him and know every single thing he does while keeping my identity a secret.I needed to know h

The Crimson Trail of Death The Enemy's Secret Weapon
In that moment, I caught sight of a stranger walking up to Damarc side as he whispered something into his ears, which led to a change in his expression. I watched him leave a scan around the room as though he was searching for someone. His eyes brushed through my side, but I could feel a side of me hoping to hide from his gaze, but that wasn't of any use; that was just going to increase a side of suspicion. He had no idea who I was anyway and why I was here. Not long after, he stood up from his seat as the two men escorted him to a room. "Where is he heading to?" I wondered, thinking maybe he was already leaving. I surely couldn't allow that now. Taking some steps, I followed up his movement, leaving a scan back with my pistol slowly pointed out as my finger closed in on the trigger, ready to pull. I forced a push, entering the room in a hastened speed, only for it to turn out to be a hallway. The lights were red, making it hard to have a clear view. My pistol already pointed up a
The Crimson Trail of Death Uncle Marc's Request
[Dominic's POV]"So, tell me, Nate, you had stopped my steps back then, mentioning this same Sierra we have been searching for quite a long while... So, have you gotten her in control now? Where is she?" I asked.Even though i was yet to forget the issue with Adrian's wife and my men that i had brought from the club.I can still remember the silence that went through after one of them mentioned Adrian's wife's name. The same screeching tires sound...Yet, she claims not to know anything, but was I really right? That she was the one who killed them?I had my doubts, but should I then deny my men's last words? I had ordered some men to go in search of their bodies, tracing their cellphones to the last places where they called. The men caught no sign of any dead bodies, which only brought more doubts to my mind."She has been taken care of, boss. You don't have to worry about her..." I heard Nate utter, but did I just hear him wrongly? What does he mean by she has been taken care of?"Wh
The Crimson Trail of Death Arrival in Las Vegas
I watched as Nate left the room. He had just received a call from Dominic. I had little idea of what they had discussed, but it seemed important, judging from Nate's expressions and the fact that he left no words or further questions before leaving the room.I sat down on the bed and watched the luggage."So this was it... I was going to take on this mission and leave for Las Vegas," I thought.With some minutes gone by, I stepped out of the room and walked down the stairs. Only to catch sight of some of the maids approaching with my luggage in their grasp.Awaiting my presence at the mansion doorstep was Marc."Good to see you are ready," he said with a weird smile. I left no words, only a glare, but then scanned around as I caught sight of many armed men stationed, which left me wondering what their presence was called for."I'm very sure you are going to do good in this, your first mission, and bring glory onto the De Santos name," Marc continued, drawing my focus back to him.I le
The Crimson Trail of Death Leaving for Las Vegas
"Tell me, is it true?" Adrian questioned, "That you are leaving for Las Vegas? Answer me, Sierra."I could see that even with his wounded, bandaged body, he was still eager to know everything going on and wanted answers from me. I also couldn't believe it when Marc uttered it from his mouth."This company is based in Las Vegas, so you are to travel back to Las Vegas today and begin your mission," Marc had said.Those words were something I never thought I would hear. It seemed he wasn't one to take things slow.But I never thought I would be returning to Las Vegas, even though it was to be expected."I wasn't the one who decided that, Adrian," I replied, hoping to take some of my clothing, but Adrian remained blocking my path as he approached me hastily. My back was pressed against the wall. His eyes fixed on mine."You have begun to act different now, haven't you? Don't forget where you are coming from, the deal we both had. You are to act as my loyal wife at all times," he reminded
The Crimson Trail of Death A Personal Agenda
Recalling things now, I could also remember her discussing with a man on the phone, the same time she had me kidnapped, as she also addressed him as "father."Could it be that this man was her father? But what does she mean by "don't harm Adrain"? Wait, don't tell me she was behind the reason Adrain arrived home in such a state.Should I really be jumping to such conclusions so fast? I hadn't even checked on Adrian yet to confirm things, but even so, I still find it hard to shake Elena's words."Don't hurt Adrain, Father, or else I will never forgive you for that. Just hold on and stay low while I handle things," she said, as I tried moving in closer, hoping to hear her words more clearly and maybe the response from the call. I accidentally stepped onto a metal plate, which left a clashing sound—one that brought a sharp turn from Elena.I hid myself away from her sight, leaving the area at that very moment as I distanced myself, stopping at a side."That was close," I muttered to myse
The Crimson Trail of Death Shadows of Doubt
[Sierra's POV]"What do you think you're doing, Dominic?" Marc snapped, but Dominic remained persistent as his fingertips closed in on the trigger.In that moment, I caught sight of some men coming out of nowhere, armed with guns.But their actions afterward left me stunned as they stood in protection, their guns aimed at Dominic, ready to shoot."She is a traitor... I'm sure of it," Dominic uttered, declaring again."What has really gotten into you today? Don't forget she is now the sohoe the De Santos, and you should put some respect into that," Marc said, but even with all the words, they did little to Dominic as his eyes remained narrowed, locked onto mine."Are you going to speak, or do you want me to do that?" he started, making me wonder what he meant.I can't just say it's about the men at the club. I'm sure he doesn't know that; I have to stop showing any suspicious signs. But if it wasn't about that, what could it be?His expression changed for that moment, downcast, before
The Crimson Trail of Death A Warning Unheeded
I heard a screeching sound, which caused my eyes to spring open. I found myself lying in wet mud as I tried to stand up. A sharp sting hit my head, and my legs buckled, causing me to stumble back down.Catching a glimpse, I watched a car drive off. I could hardly get a proper glance through the heavy rainfall blurring my vision.But I was sure it was one of Elena's dad henchmen."I will make sure to make them pay for what they have done. Those bastards, who do they think they are?" I thought."Adrian, sir..." I heard a voice that drew my attention. I had no idea that they had dropped me off right in front of the mansion.To know they even had the guts to do that, not scared if they were sighted and killed. Well, this was to be expected since I was dealing with Elena's father in the line.One of the men came rushing to my side as he helped me up from the muddy ground.I hated the sight of my own weak state. No, I wasn't weak; it was just them that played a cowardly trick. Being, i neve
The Crimson Trail of Death Bound and Beaten
[Adrian's POV]"Who the hell do you think you are? Do you know who I am?" I threatened, yelling only to cough out more blood as a punch sank deep into my stomach."And how does that matter?" the man who had punched me replied.How dare he lay a finger on me, knowing very well that I am Adrian De Santos? He must surely wish for his death so much.My thoughts went back to leaving the club with those men ambushing me. Now I found myself in this room. They had kept me here for a while now, hitting me repeatedly.But they were nothing but cowards. I would make them pay once I found a way out of here."The boss is on his way, Felix," one of the men walked in saying. "You should stop now. You know he doesn't like messy work.""So their boss is on his way," I thought to myself. Finally, I would be able to know who had the guts to have me, Adrian De Santos, kidnapped.Who could that fool be?The man retreated a bit from my side, but his eyes remained fixed on mine. It was as if he was ready to
The Crimson Trail of Death The Mask Begins to Slip
"What are you saying, Sierra? Tell me, who was it? Who did you kill? Is it Dominic...?" Nate questioned, but how could it be Dominic?Even though I wished for his death so much, I wouldn't have been so stupid as to go for a straight attack."No, Nate..." I replied, "It's the men...""The what?""I killed them, Nate. I just killed the men from the club; they saw me, so I had no choice. Now, I don't know what to do. What if they find out that I was the one who... no, I can't let that happen," I mumbled, as many thoughts came hitting me, leaving me worried and causing my legs to buckle."Hold on, Sierra. Just calm down; nothing is going to happen. I promised to protect you from any harm. I can't surely allow anything to happen to you now," Nate said. But where was he when the men at the club had sighted me, when I had no other option but to take action and stop them by killing them? Just where was he back then?"What am I going to do, Nate?" I asked again, hoping he would have an answer,
