Chapter 8.2 Nipping in the Bud

  Iris went to their hideout in front of her building. She stormed inside the motel, surprising the hideous looking men who were crowding in the lounge playing pokers. A rain of whistles and hoots came from their mouths when Iris walked her way towards the elevator. She didn’t spare them a glance, instead, she levitated the beverage refrigerator from her side and threw it across the room, slamming it to the stunned men whose eyes widened in fear as they watch the refrigerator flew towards them. Iris quietly hopped in the elevator, the awful voices throwing different profanities and howling of the men slowly fainted as the door closed. She exhaled sharply, her mind still cannot process what happened to their men, all she knows is that whoever killed the victims, was an enemy of their gang. She reached the floor of their hideout and went straight to their room. She stood in front of the door as she tries to calm

Chapter 8.3 Nipping in the Bud

    The first thing that came into Iris’ mind when she heard that Roxanne’s now dead was how will she shut the mouths of those disgusting men from the motel’s lobby earlier. Clearly, if the police searches for Roxanne’s last whereabouts, those men are the witnesses. She regretted that she didn’t give them a warm hug.   Max, Claire and Iris quickly grabbed their badges and headed downstairs with urgency. Iris’ mind was swirling with all the possibilities of Roxanne’s death that may affect their gang. She cursed under her breath for the major and most likely possible thing that crossed her mind; William still on the motel, mourning for his dead girlfriend.   “She was found on her car,” William suddenly spoke, his eyes on his phone as the elevator doors opened.   “Location?” Iris asked, a hint of relief tailed on her words as the bubble of her most frightening thought burst. Wasting no second, they

Chapter 9 When the Bud Sprouted

‘Gotcha. Come out now and meet me.’   Iris hit the send button as her grip on the steering wheel tightened. Aside from feeling euphoric that she has confirmed the killer’s identity to William, her hands are itching for some action. She wants to hear the cries and pleas of the killer when it begs for her mercy. Three of their assassins were killed, and their deaths are a great loss for the gang—well, except for Roxanne’s, Iris thought. She hated the guts of that woman.   If only I could kill you with my own hands, I would snap your body into two!   Her teeth gritted in both fury and excitement. She drove her way back to the station, beating the red lights of the road letting her police sirens wailing above her car be her pass. She smirked in satisfaction.   She stepped out of the car when her phone beeped inside her pocket. ’Louiss

Chapter 10 Trapped

  Iris knew that Sergeant Claire Martin has something up on her sleeves. The minute she talked to her when they first met, she radiated of omen—definitely someone who has ulterior motive, just like her. But she gave her the benefit of the doubt, and now she’s finally facing the consequence of not believing her guts. What if I just kill her? “You can’t.” Iris eyes widened when she answered. “And no, I don’t read minds. It just happens that your eyes are all screaming at me to die.” “Why the hell do you think I can’t?” Claire’s lips curled on one side. “Because if you do kill me, the little vengeance that you’re plotting for so long will be pointless.” Iris squeezed her eyes shut, frustration creeping in because she knows Claire was right, she can&rs

Chapter 11 Moves and Countermoves

   If Iris had something she hates about herself, it is the way she makes up her mind and just throw words out of her mouth, heedless of the consequences they bear. She was always the reckless one—William noted, but her recklessness always comes with good results. Just like how she mindlessly invited Detective Carter on her home to have cold noodles, still during in their work hours. “It’s been so long since I’ve had the courage to break a rule,” Max blurted out, his gaze outside the car window. “And when was the last time? Stealing one more packet of creamer for your coffee despite the warning of Mrs. Stella to limit taking just three?” Iris snorted. “How did you know that?” Max faced her. Iris’ dead eyes met him. “Seriously?” “No,” Max

Chapter 12 The Hollow Castle

 “Lunch?” Iris rose her head and met Sergeant Claire, an invisible red line sparked between their eyes both fueled with displeasure. “No thanks,” she muttered and went back to her computer. She was digging her grave at her seat, typing an endless report of the crimes of her own co-gang members. “Carter will be coming,” a hint of tease circulated on Claire’s words. “I just thought you’d love to come and spend some time with him since he’ll be away with me.” Iris scoffed in disbelief. “You’re making no sense, Sergeant. Besides,” Iris turned to her, half smirking. “You just passed your own order back to yourself.” Claire pursed her lips, thinking. “I think I just made it difficult, actually.” She chuckled. “Save her, or else, Max will be stumbling in an awful dump.”

Chapter 13 The Lost Princess

   “Hello, Eleanor.” Max stood up as he stretched his hand to offer a handshake. Eleanor, a 17-year-old girl with deep-set blue eyes and a distinctive birth scar that was a shape of a heart under her lip stood there, letting Max’s hand suspended in the air, unentertained. Max slowly took his hand back. “I’m Detective Carter and this is Sergeant Martin,” he said. Eleanor didn’t let out a word and just glanced at them for a second before her eyes darted to the butler. “Is the tea already served?” she asked in a low soft voice, almost sounded like a doll would make, even her tone stained in elegance. “Yes it has been served, and they are actually enjoying it when you arrived.” The butler smiled at her. Claire cleared her throat to get her attention to which she succeeded when Eleanor shot her a look.

Chapter 14 Backpedal

The taxi came into a halt in front of the enormous gate. Iris stepped out slowly, crouching to hide herself from anyone’s sight. She sauntered inside the open gates which she found strange, together with the lack of security measures in the area. She got inside with no difficulty. “Shit!” She quickly ducked down and hid on one of the sculptures when she saw someone came out from the front door. She peeked from one side, narrowing her eyes and saw an old man went to the back end of the house. Why is no one else here in this huge ass house?  She stayed for awhile there, hiding while craning her neck to see if someone else would come out. She froze when she saw the old man came back looking all rushed, on his hand was a rifle, she hastily went inside the house and Iris grabbed the opportunity to come out and hurried to the door. She did not bothered to stop and admire the gran

Chapter 15 The Fake Heroine

 Iris went straight to her car after the ambulance that carries Max finally left. Claire followed her right away after confirming that Eleanor and the butler successfully escaped the mansion. The little commotion on a huge ass mansion attracted the ears of the media, that is why when the police arrived, so were a bunch of reporters trying to get a scoop surrounded the area. The sudden crowd gave them the opportunity to escape the crime scene for awhile, as there are still things that they need to explain like the blood stains on the floor and the mess which Iris caused when she threw random things to knock off the gentlemen. “Tell me who,” Iris spoke, not looking at her. “Tell you who?” Claire asked back, facing the front as well. They were watching the officers running from everywhere, checking the vicinity and finding more evidences. It will not be long when the other detectives will arrive and ask them

Chapter 16 Unwanted Guests

 Iris didn’t know what to feel, aside from the spiteful sight of Claire and Max praising each other and commenting how commendable their teamwork was, Iris remained tedious in front of them. But as her feet dragged her towards her car, and her mind already on the place she was going, she could finally feel some sort of uneasiness. William ordered Claire to be killed, that was the certain part. But the reason why and how much does he knows already, they were the things that Iris need to know. A ring from her cellphone came as soon as she stepped inside the car. The ominous atmosphere circled around when she saw William’s name popped on the screen. Exhaling sharply, she opened the text message. ‘Join us for the party.’ Iris face darkened, she gripped the steering wheel tight as she starts the engine and drove off from the hospital. The W.E.S.T is a
