Bojana looked for whatever organization the wheel tattoo belonged to for more than two weeks but got nothing. She came into the house that evening completely exhausted and frustrated because her abilities were being subjected to a hide and seek game and her reputation was on the line. The silence from Rocco was because he trusted her to show up soon with the information he needed.

She met Irena munching on snacks in the sitting room but just walked straight to have a cup of water in silence since she had no business with her. Their paths rarely crossed, since Irena was always in her room and Bojana had little or no time on her hand to be around the house.

“Welcome back. It’s been a while since I saw you though”, Irena blurted out, trying to spark a conversation, but just got ignored by Bojana

“When someone is talking, isn’t giving a response the next thing to do?” Irena mumbled under breath before getting closer, giving her the benefit of the doubt that she probably didn’t hear her.

    “What again?”“Did I just hear you say that you had seen that somewhere?” he asked to be sure, and this time, his voice was way calmer.I answered that he heard me right, and he rushed up to me to ask where I saw the tattoo and I realized that it must have been what he and Bojana were talking about the other day. Since I was also petty on my own end, I didn’t want to release the information to him easily.“Apologize for telling them to throw me out first”, I blurted out, and the sounds of guns cocking filled the air.They all aimed their guns at me for my statement, but I wasn’t fazed at all. They should have learned that I wasn’t afraid of guns at that point. I didn’t hesitate to turn back to the door after telling him that he was not ready to hear anything if he couldn't apologize. As I held the door’s handle, the cold mouth of Bojana’s gun kissed my temple and a sigh dropped from me.Before she could blink, the gun was already in my hands. I was tired of her tantrums and rudeness.

    |Rocco|As usual, I woke up angry that morning and kept staring at the cinnamon tree that was visible through my window. The warm cup of coffee was hitting the right spot and melting my anger as my thoughts drifted unintentionally to her. It took me a while before I could remember her name, we were not that close even when she was right in the same house with me.“Irena”, I sighed as my brain finally clickedHer audacity on our first meeting got me awestruck. It never left my brain for a second. Never has anyone had that boldness towards me, they always cowered in fear. Even till the last second of her leaving, she never wavered for once.I was not sure if it was a good impression at that point but it does left a trace. I couldn’t forget her.My thoughts were cut short when Bojana swung the door open and came in with a familiar figure. She was one of my bedwarmers. Immediately, the memories of me instructing Bojana to send in someone in the morning flooded my head.“I must have been o

    |Rocco| I was coming back from a meeting when I sighted her on the road playing with a dog. I had searched for her for several days but no one knew where she was hiding. Now that she had appeared right in front of me, I wasn’t ready to let the chance slide. My presence must have startled her because she stepped back with each step I took nearer to her and almost fell into the ditch. I didn’t know when I rushed forward to help her even though I was leaving a safe distance because of the dog since I was allergic to their furs. “Come work for me”, I stated my offer but she responded that she would be crazy to do that. I had grounded her against her will and even threw her out as if she was nothing so her reaction was expected but I really needed to have her around me. I was losing focus and interest in everything I do because I couldn’t stop thinking about her. “You can come up with what you want and we will review it together. I promise it won’t be like the last time”, I added but o

    |Irena|I never expected to run into Paul in that part of the city. He lived with us when we were in high school and we grew up together before we moved. We were neighbors and attended the same school even though we were not close at first.His stepmother was a wicked entity who frustrated the life out of the poor boy. Paul was very calm and easygoing so he wouldn’t even tell his father about the situation of things whenever he comes back from his trips.This abuse continued until the day he almost lost his life by freezing to death. He was thrown out by his stepmother and left to sleep in the cold staircase. The snow was heavy that night that he lost consciousness. His lips were blue and swollen by the time he was found by my mother who quickly rushed him to the hospital.Throughout his stay, the stepmother didn’t even bother to look for him or visit him so my mother decided to take him back to our house where he made him stay with us till his father came back.

    |Irena|Ever since I met Paul, he has never rested over my mother’s case. He was always calling me to confirm one thing or the other. In less than three days, he had discovered many things that we missed and planned to visit the murder site so that he would find out more.“I think we will have to ask your mother some questions. That will help the investigation. There were many things that were overlooked during the initial investigation”, he said to me that morning, and I didn’t waste time.I rushed to the prison to see her but, to my surprise, I was denied access. I threw a fit, pleaded and did all I could, but the answer remained the same. I couldn’t see her till further notice.Pacing up and down the prison’s grounds, I thought about several options that might help, but none came until one person came to mind.“Rocco!” His men denied me access into the Villa and I didn’t have his number, so I had to wait all morning in front of his house, for him to leave his house. He finally cam

    Only the sound of running water was heard in the room where I was thrown. I couldn’t understand what was happening and why I had to be treated that way. So many questions ran through my mind as I silently waited for what to come next, but nothing or nobody seemed to be there with me.“Where is Rocco? Does he even know about this? Do I have to go through this truly?”, I muttered to myself as I adjusted my bum on the cold floor.For several hours, the sound of running water continued and everywhere started getting chilly. I was in a big polo shirt, so it didn’t take much time before the cold got to me.“Hey! Is anyone out there? I am getting cold”, I called out with my teeth clattering, and the cold was getting unbearable, but only silence bounced back at me.What seemed to be another two hours passed by, but nobody came in. This time, I was shivering hard already. I was on the verge of passing out when I heard the door open and got dragged on its hinge.“Finally”, I thought, and waited

    He had the habit of always walking closer to me in silence whenever I asked a question, or he wanted something from me, but I had not learned how to stand my ground and not get afraid of him. He was scared no matter what. No one knew whatever was going on in his head and for someone like that handling a gun, I surely had to be extremely careful.“Do I have to announce to you that I am coming to my house? Get out of the way”, he growled and walked past me, deeper into the garden.“He could have just walked without intimidating me. My heart almost jumped out of my heart”, I sighed in relief before resuming my play with Rex, who was happy to see me.I didn’t know that he had made provisions for my dog to be brought to where I was. I couldn’t help but blush at his thoughtfulness.“At least, he’s considerate”, I pouted in happiness.I noticed that he had been washed and taken care of. He was also fed and even had a cage but was put on a leash in order not to wander around, and I couldn’t s

    |Irena|I knitted deep into the night because I really didn’t like the choice of clothes Bojana picked for me aside from the suits. They were too short and hugging my body in ways I was not comfortable with. That was the reason why I decided to get my knitting materials.The movie I was seeing was also addicting that I didn’t know that it was few minutes to five in the morning. I was already struggling with sleep, but I wanted to finish the top I was knitting before I found myself snoring already.Since I slept deeply, and I was insanely tired, I couldn’t hear the continuous knocking from Rocco until he broke the door down and rushed in.“Are you okay? Is something wrong? You are not dead, right?” his questions filled the room and I couldn’t open my eyes anymore in embarrassment.I had woken up at that moment but the position I slept in was not palatable. I was exposing all my thighs and panties under the short night gown. It would be a great embarrassment if I moved or tried to adjus

    Her body was moved to the morgue, while Rocco was also arrested alongside the other politicians, officers, and everyone involved in the scandal that had broken out. Luca was dead, so there was no way to prosecute him for what he had done.“We just got a video confession sent to the police mail. Ms Bojana confessed to everything,” one of the officers brought in a laptop to the investigation roomThey watched the video and also showed it to Rocco, who couldn’t believe his eyes. Bojana confessed to all the crimes with sufficient conviction that she committed them. She provided evidence of killing the people she killed, filmed Luca’s warehouse, and confirmed that she was in charge of smuggling the drugs and weapons.“All Rocco did all his life was chase the truth of his parents’ deaths. I was the one that joined hands with who placed Rocco on the seat as a puppet. He didn’t do anything. He will be stupid enough to take the blame for me so I am doing this in advance.”Tears rolled down h

    That night, Bojana opened her eyes after the anesthesia wore off and jumped down the bed with a groan. The nurse that was attending to her tried to keep her still but she only gave her a jab enough to put her to sleep.“Sorry! I didn’t mean to do this but I had to,” she whispered, helping the unconscious nurse on the bed so she could sleep properly before she rushed outHer first stop was a clothes shop, where she purchased black leather pants and a jacket.“Bring me the bike. If you tell anyone, I will kill you with my own hands,” she placed a call through to one of the men who was working with her in the automobile shop.Fifteen minutes later, the guy showed up with the motorcycle and a small briefcase he placed at the back.“Everything is intact. Please stay safe.”Ignoring his line, she jumped on the bike and fixed her helmet before she zoomed off“She’s in a murderous mode. I’m so sorry,” the man panicked as he watched her disappear into the street.***After a fifteen-minute rid

    Martin made sure all the dead men were given a befitting burial and took Bojana to one of the biggest hospitals.“Do everything to save her. I will make sure you get compensated handsomely.” He had instructed one of the doctors who got to work immediatelyThey had to wheel her to the theater, where they operated on her wounds and every other part that needed to be fixed before she was wheeled to the intensive care unit for further treatments and proper monitoring.Her recuperation was fast; it was obvious that she desired to live desperately. He couldn’t understand how she got to the front of the villa but a deep side of him was glad to see her again. He had been worried about her and where she could be. Also, from her appearance, one could see that she had been tortured brutally. All her body was filled with bruises and wounds. Her breathing was barely coming up; she was almost dead.“She got hurt a lot from the people who did this to her but her life is no longer in danger. However,

    Martin explained that he had gathered the men in the house to prepare them for the trip the following morning while he went out to meet with some of our businessmen. I made sure my absence didn’t affect our normal business so I put Martins in charge of the deals and meetings.“Tell them I went on a business trip whenever they ask of me,” I had given him that instruction while I was living with Irena in order to recover completely before coming back to the houseThe attacks were too sudden and also happened in a very short time interval so my body felt the hit more than it should. Irena also wouldn’t release me because she was afraid something else might happen to me while recuperating.“Luca is not going to stop until someone stops him. I know it is hard to lose your men; your feelings are valid but you know that we also need to move faster than them before they get their hands on the file,” she preached as I clutched my phone in my hands“Make sure Bojana is treated back to life.

    The sound of water dropping into the bucket placed under a leaking roof filled the atmosphere. The rotten and rusty smell of metals that had been immersed in liquids took over the air as the door to the basement gave way with a huge cranky noise.Men murmuring from afar was heard before it became closer with every of their steps. Within three minutes of intense marching and walking, they were finally in the large room that looked like an abandoned warehouse.“Let her down,” the coarse voice commanded, followed by the trooping sounds of legs that rushed to the rope’s controller.“I didn’t mean to go this far but what do we do? You just wouldn’t talk. I felt bad for hurting you but the information I need from is more important to me.” his legs found their way to the prisoner’s side as he voiced his concernsA soft groan dropped off her lips as she tried crawling to a comfortable position. Her legs had failed her when she tried to stand so she ended up using her knees.“Do you think Rocc

    I just realized that we haven’t really discussed Auntie and who exactly she was. She got introduced to me by my mother, and I grew up relying on her when we moved to the town. She helped me so much and brought me to stay with her when my mother got arrested for murder.We didn’t have any situation or opportunity to talk deeper about her, and I had always felt too comfortable to be bothered by all that. All Auntie did in her entire life was cook. She would cook even on days when she was sick to the bones.There was a time she collapsed while cooking because she was doing it nonstop. The funniest thing was that there was no customer to eat all that she had cooked because it was midnight. I came out to have a glass of water and saw her cooking aggressively before she passed out.“You should have just taken it slow. Why were you cooking this hard?” I scolded her as I attended to her in her room“I have to prepare it for them. If not, they might stay hungry the entire year,” she groaned in

    The stare of horror on their faces showed how scary my screams and dripping palms were. We all stood there looking at each other, my body trembling with hatred and disbelief. I couldn’t comprehend all that I had just watched. A head banging headache swept me off my feet as my chest rose and fell.Before I knew it, I was on the floor with dim eyes. My body couldn’t bear the weight of oppression from my emotions. I had broken down once again.“Let’s help her up! Irena!” Auntie’s scream barely kept me awake before I passed out finally.I woke up to the fluid being passed in my body and saw the same doctor that treated Rocco during the first gunshot standing close to the door and discussing with the men. I couldn’t hear what they were discussing, and I wasn’t even in the right frame of mind to eavesdrop.“We will talk more about it when she wakes up,” was another line I heard before I slept off again.I woke up to see everyone having dinner, and they all rushed to my side when they saw me

    |Irena|I realized they were trying to distract us as I cried in the morgue. My mother’s body was filled with several marks that had come from bullying and torturing. It was then it dawned on me that all those bruises I saw when I last visited her were from the maltreatment she had been facing in the correctional center.“What a foolish daughter I am. I didn’t even think deeply into what the bruises could mean. How did I end up believing that she only tripped and wounded herself?” several thoughts filled my mind as we headed to the center to get the rest of her thingRocco held me in his arms as Paul drove the car silently to the location. His soft but huge arms were rubbing my shoulder to keep me calm, but I had so much going on in my head even though my mouth was not moving.The guards at the center were taking longer than usual to attend to my request until Rocco stepped in. I had previously told him to wait for me in the car while I go alone to get her things but when I saw that t

    “We have to move faster than their investigations. We have done a lot to keep this buried for years. They cannot just come to ruin all our hard work at this point,” one of the men sitting at a round table with sushi and several sashimi dishes glaring at them.“That’s why we have been taking them out one after the other. We cannot allow any loophole in this operation. One of our men is on the way to give us the report on the progress of the operation,” another responded, reaching for his cup for a drinkThe other men released a uniform groan as they released their ties, buttering their frustrations. They had all been unsettled ever since Irena found the files they had been searching for all year. They had turned the house upside down over and over but none of them could find where her mother kept it.“We already concluded that she didn’t have the file. I don’t understand how that bitch managed to hide the file till her daughter found it. We even had the inmates bully and beat her just
