The Ganglord’s Girl 113: Unconscious
I can't wait for this 'meeting' to end.It's been going on for three hours, and so far, they haven't discussed anything of importance, just trivial matters. John Herbert—he's the one who sent the invitations—just talks about horse racing and bets, nothing that will contribute to this war Ferdinand keeps talking about. They're drinking the finest wine and having a grand time, whereas I'm sitting far away from the group and thinking about what happened.Damien.I don't understand him. When I saw him, all I wanted was to get away from him. I didn't expect him to follow me, and especially not to kiss me. It was brief, but it was a breath-taking kiss. I can't imagine why he would do such a thing. Just yesterday he said he would kill me if he had the chance, now he kissed me and demanded to know why I didn't tell anyone about Adam. The time for questions has passed long ago. Nothing makes sense, and I need alone time to reflect and think about what I'm going to do about this.I don't need t
The Ganglord’s Girl 114: Pessimism
Ethan stares at the ocean, and can't help but think of Damien. What the fuck is wrong with him? Something is amiss. He looked like he ate a mouthful of shit just yesterday, yet all of a sudden he's fine, back to his old self. Not his old, old self, but the one before that spying bitch came along and fucked with his head. He saw him before he left the office, and he had that stupid look in his face, like he saw a fucking butterfly. Ethan didn't ask him what was wrong. He'll leave that for after they return from the meeting with Jasper. Ethan will be seeing him for the first time in over fifteen years. His brother's a dick, Damien's right about that. He left without a word, which disappointed his parents, and Ethan, who had always looked up to him. He was everything Ethan wanted to be—extroverted, optimistic, daring. He admired his optimism above everything else. He couldn't imagine what it was like to be positive all the time, to expect the best in every situation, no matter how impr
The Ganglord’s Girl 115: Evil
I run out of the hospital.I couldn't breathe in there for a second. It's like the white walls of the room were closing in on me. I held onto her bed for support, but after a while, even that wasn't enough.I couldn't believe what she was telling me.I breathe in deeply. The night's air cools my clammy skin. My head is full of haunting images, of the full story. Ferdinand is a son of a bitch. He's the Devil's incarnate.And he has full control of me.My mother met him when she was seventeen. She came from a poor family—that I always knew—and so she dropped out of high school and worked full-time to help pay the rent.She started working at one of his family's many businesses, a flower shop. She hadn't been there for too long when he came in one afternoon. He was twenty-three at the time, and she found him handsome. He asked her to prepare a bouquet of roses—it was his mother's birthday—and when she handed it to him, he asked her for her name."Edith," she said, smiling demurely, offer

The Ganglord’s Girl 118: Euphoria
He was covered in blood when he walked in this room.That should've been the sign for me to leave while he was in the shower, because he hadn't seen me. I've been sitting here in the dark and waiting for him. The only certainty I had that he would be coming was the small suitcase on the bed with clothes that were undoubtedly his. When the front door opened, my heart sank. He didn't see me, though. He walked straight to the bathroom, and when he turned on the light that's when I saw him. His clothes were all bloody. What did he do? Something terrible by the looks of it. It made me lose my nerve and I thought of leaving. Maybe I was making a mistake. I wasn't that sure about my plan in the first place, but I don't have another choice. That's what made me stay. He's my only lifeline at the moment. It's either him or Ferdinand, and after what I heard tonight, I choose him.He's confused, but he lowered the gun at least. That's a good sign. Now that we're face to face, I don't really know
The Ganglord’s Girl 119: Distraction
That piece of shit was actually going to shoot him.If those drunkards hadn't stumbled out of the bar, he would've been dead by now. They practically stepped in front of that guy, and stayed long enough for Devon to get away. He sped out of the parking lot, and when he glanced at the rear view mirror, he saw the man watching him drive away.Fucking creep.He needs to warn Amelia about this.Devon's joining the pieces. He said Ferdinand is the reason why he's alive, and that can only mean that Ferdinand never killed the baby Daisy offered to him. He said he did, when in reality he didn't. Why not, though? He's a fucking maniac, of course he'd kill the baby. Or rather, everyone would assume he did. But why would he keep him alive? For what reason? Revenge later on? After thirty fucking years?Something else isn't adding up. Why would Bertha hate Daisy and attack Amelia when she knew her son was alive the entire time? Because he said that she told him that Devon asked her questions. As a
