The Lady Gangster's Mission For The Prince (English)
Adira lives in a place where there are many so-called gangsters, and she belongs there. She is an orphan with her sister, but her sister does not treat her well, so she decides to leave to go off on her own. Now she lives alone in an old warehouse ever since their parents passed away. The only thing she makes a living from is accepting missions from those who can afford her services. Adira does not accept a mission if the price is life.
The king, King Stephen, has been receiving threats on his son's life. He doesn't trust his companions inside the palace except for his son and General Agustin. Even though it was against Adira's rules that she would not accept a mission similar to that of the prince, she accepted it because of the king and his love for his son, agreeing to train him with the sword and keep him safe.
Now, with her rules compromised, she's committed to the family. Will she be able to keep her emotions in check? How can she explain the sudden beating of her heart every time the prince is around her? Is she prepared to risk her life for this man?

Chapter: Epilogue She's confused by what they say, even to Sabrina. "I'm not your missing child, and the girl beside you now is my sister, even though we didn't treat each other very well!"Queen Alice came down and was about to approach Adira, but she backed away, which made the queen cry even more."If you want a real word, we have to call the person you've been with for a long time."King Felip nodded to the general of their palace, and when he returned, Adira was even more confused about the person he was with now, Simon."Simon?"He hesitated to smile before speaking. "Long time no see, Adira.""Simon, you're the only one who can prove everything to him and tell him why he's here in a country full of palaces," said King Felip.She frowned when she looked at Simon. "What does he mean?""The mission is not the only reason you are here, Adira. Because there is another reason why I forced you to accept the offer of the king of Stalwart Castle to accept the mission, and that is because of your real fat

Chapter: Chapter 60 True Princess"What are you talking about, King Felip? I never thought of harming your princess before."King Felip first looked at Princess Francesca. "I know everything you did before, Cyrus. You also sent to find my princess to kill her even when she was a baby because you felt that when the time came for the children to reach the age when they would marry and Stalwart Castle would grow strong."King Cyrus just stared at King Felip in silence. "You killed two people because of your greed, Cyrus, so he left behind a child who is still crying." He looked at the soldiers of King Cyrus. "You still have a chance to order your soldiers to put down their swords if you want to live."King Cyrus laughed loudly as he looked at King Felip. "How did you find out about the things I've been doing in secret?""To me."King Cyrus frowned when a familiar voice spoke, but he was even more surprised to see his face."P-prince Damon—my son.""Good evening, Father."King Cyrus was confused by what was happening.

Chapter: Chapter 59 The Unexpected WarPrince Damon stood up and walked closer to the wall, where he could see the bottom of the palace. Adira followed him."He's not referring to Prince Dylan, who will be killed; it's King Stephen. I'm the one who sends the letter to Prince Dylan with a servant whose name is Tasha, and it always says, "Be careful, prince."She quickly looked at the prince's face. "That means the letters I found under Dylan's bed came from him."He sighed. "But it was too late. I didn't know that he was slowly taking King Stephen's life. I thought he was going to start a war right away, but I was wrong, and I didn't tell Prince Dylan in my letters to be ready. I hope he is. I heard you and General Agustin the other day talking about what is happening in the king's body."She just listened to him carefully and didn't speak at first. "You should thank me because I helped you heal the king."She frowned. "In what way did you help? You didn't talk to me about that?"It laughed softly. "When you were traveling

Chapter: Chapter 58 Truth Behind The Letter While Prince Dylan was out of the palace, he was about to get into a car without a soldier following him inside, so he went out again and asked one of his soldiers."Where is the soldier I was in the car with earlier?"The soldier bowed before answering. "The soldier you are talking about, dear prince, is the king of Paradise Castle."Prince Dylan frowned. "Why is the king with her? Has she done anything?"The soldier shook his head. "The only way the soldier said goodbye to us was that they were going to do something with the king.""Did you see where they went?"The soldier pointed to the road where they passed Adira. "In that direction, dear prince.""Thank you, I leave you here for a moment, and I'll just go see her."Meanwhile, King Felip is still shocked by Adira. He looked at his hand, where he was holding the sword that was now on the ground.Adira's face was calm as she looked at the king."Great! Where did you learn that style?""Nobody taught, I just found out, dear king."

Chapter: Chapter 57 Fight Between King Felip and Adira When Adira finished washing her face, she immediately sat down in front of the table and ate while staring at her bed. She was still wondering how the general could do that.An hour passed, and Adira was ready. She left the room and continued down the stairs. She stopped for a moment near the door leading out of the palace."Where else is the prince going? Why would he leave if the prince of Valiant Castle is here? I still have strong doubts about that prince." She turned aside because Dylan was already outside the palace. It just looked straight, and when it was opposite the car door, it stopped and looked at her."Soldier, come. Come to me," he called her calmly.Curious, she came closer, but not too close to him. Dylan looked her in the eye before speaking."You will be my companion in the car. Other soldiers will use a horse, but you will be with me in our car."She frowned at what he said because why did he say she was in the car to ride? As far as she knows, only General Agustin

Chapter: Chapter 56 Success Injecting The Cure Adira approached King Stephen's bed and looked at the table there.She looked over at the king, who was fast asleep, but she frowned when she noticed something on his lips. She brought her face closer to see more clearly.Her face became serious as she saw the king's lips more clearly. "This is bad; that person continues to pour poison into the king's mouth even when he is asleep. It is obvious from the lips that are almost purple as if he has been punched several times."She moved to the other side of the bed and looked at the dextrose, but she stopped, was stunned for a moment, and thought, "The poison liquid entering the king's vein may be also infused."She looked around inside and stopped at one side because there was dextrose there that hadn't been used and syringes. It will not be seen if the person who enters is at the door and only goes to the other side, and if it happens to go to the side where the dextrose is, it will only be seen if the person looks at a bag that looks li

Bago pa man magpakita ng mukha si Adira noon ay alam na niya na nagtatago lang ito sa kasuotan ng kawal, lahat ay alam niya maging sa kung paano nito ginamot ang kanyang ama.Isang kawal ang lumapit sa kanilang dalawa. "Paumanhin, mahal na prinsipe. Pinatatawag ka na ng hari, nandiyan na ang prinsesa."Agad namang pumunta si Prince Dylan sa trono at hinantay ang kanyang magiging asawa na si Adira.Samantala habang naglalakad si Adira patungo kay Prince Dylan. Nakita niya si Simon at si Sabrina na nakahanay sa mga bisita. Napangiti siya sa mga ito at nangilid ang luha, lalo ng nakita niya si Simon na matagal na niyang nakasama at tinuring na din niyang ama. Kumaway ito at nakangiti ng pagkalaki ,isa na din pala siya sa heneral ng kanilang palasyo ngayon.

Hindi niya sinubukan na kausapin ang kanyang asawa tungkol sa babaeng nasa kanilang palasyo na si Sabrina.Ang lahat ay palabas lang, simula ng makasalubong nila si Adira sa palasyo ng Stalwart Castle, pero si King Felip ay masayang-masaya noong panahon na 'yon dahil unang beses niyang nakita ang kanilang prinsesa, at ito ang naka-mana ng angking galing niya sa paghawak ng espada o sabahin na mas magaling pa nga ito sa kanya.Simula ng nalaman ni King Felip kung nasaan ang kanyang anak ay pinabantayan niya ito sa tulong ni Simon.

"Ano kaya ang sinasabi ng hari ng Paradise Castle, at isa pa anong ginagawa ni Sabrina dito at sa pagkakadinig ko kanina ay siya ang daw ang prinsesa?" Gulong-gulo siya habang nakakunot ang noo. Pero nagpasya siyang pumunta na ng kwarto para malaman ang totoo bukas dahil malaking palaisipan pa din kung si Sabrina ay tunay niya bang kapatid o sadyang may iba itong pamilya talaga.Nang nakapasok agad si Adira sa loob ng kwarto habang nakatitig sa kisame ay dinalaw na din siya ng antok. Hindi niya alam na si Prince Dylan ay nasa labas ng kwarto niya at akma sanang kakatok ngunit hindi na nito tinuloy at umalis na lamang.Si King Stephen ay tuluyan na ngang nagising at nagagalaw ang kanyang mga daliri, ngunit mahina pa ang kat

Pinahanap mo din ang aking prinsesa para patayin ito kahit sanggol pa lang, dahi pakiramdam mo na pag dumating na ang panahon na sumapit na ang takdang edad ng mga bata ay sila ay magpapakasal at lalong lalakas ang Stalwart Castle."Tahimik lamang na nakatitig si King Cyrus kay King Felip.

Kinuha niya ang espada sa bewang ni Prince Damon at tinutok sa mukha nito. "B-bakit hindi mo sa akin sinabi na ang ama mo pala ang may kagagawan ng lahat ng ito?!"Walang emosyon na tumingin si Prince Damon sa mata ni Prince Dylan. "Sinabi ko sayo— sa sulat." Unti-unting kumunot ang noo ni Prince Dylan. "Ang huling sulat ko ay tungkol doon ang nakalagay, Prince Dylan.""Anong ibig mong sabihin, ikaw ang misteryosong nagpapadala ng sulat sa akin?"Dahan-dahan na tumango ang ulo ni Prince Damon, pero si Prince Dylan ay napangisi lang.

Mabait ito at laging nakangiti sa tuwing nakikita ko siya noon, si Prince Dylan naman ay masayahin din katulad ng kanyang ina, pero nabawasan lang iyon ng mamatay si Queen Haraya. Si ama ay matalik na kaibigan ni King Stephen at halos bago pa sila maging hari ay sila ang magkasamang dalawa base sa kwento ng aking ina. Si ama ay may gusto noon kay Queen Haraya at sinuportahan siya ni King Stephen sa gusto niya, ngunit ang reyna, si Queen Haraya, ay hindi nagustuhan o nagkaroon ng damdamin para sa aking ama dahil ang gusto nito ay si King Stephen. Nang lumipas ang mga taon ay nagkatuluyan si King Stephen at Queen Haraya habang si ama ay nagdurusa dahil hindi siya ang pinili ng reyna.""Gumaganti siya dahil lang doon?"Maliit na napangiti si Prince Damon.

"Bakit hindi mo sinubukan munang lapitan ako at kuhanin ang loob ko para mapalapit sayo?" Napangiti ng maliit si Elijah. Hindi ko alam, pero sa tagal kong pumupunta sa bahay niyo hindi ko sinubok dahil na rin kay Christian. Isa pa, nag-aaral ka at alam kong hindi mo ako bibigyan kahit konting pansin." "Ibig sabihin sa tagal mong nagpupunta sa bahay namin, nahulog ang loob mo sa akin?" Habang sinisilip ang mukha ni Elijah. Tumango si Elijah. "Ganon na nga. Malayo ang agwat ng edad nating dalawa, kaya nag-alanganin din ako, pero noong gabi na 'yon buo na ang loob ko na kahit sa masamang paraan ay makuha lang kita." Lumingon siya kay Charlotte.

Kailangan ko na ring gumamit ng banyo pagkahatid ko po sayo doon. Kaya lumakad na tayo sir." Habang lumalakad ay kunot na kunot nag noo ni Elijah. Kung kanina ay sobrang sakit ng puso niya, ngayon ay parang may nararamdaman siyang kakaiba, hindi sakit, hindi rin takot. "Iwan muna kita dito sir.

Handa na siyang lumabas ulit, ngunit napatigil at lumingon siya sa kama. Ngumiti si Elijah, pero ngiting malungkot. Lumapit siya sa kama at naupo. "Aalis na ulit ako.

Halatang hindi maganda ang nagaganap sa loob dahil sa hindi tama ang pag-park ng mga sasakyan. Pauwi na siya nang makita niya si Elisse sa daan.

And the worst part—he even kisses people. Good thing I still had some self-control back then, or else your Elijah would’ve been crippled. He doesn’t recognize anyone when he has a fever.”Charlotte grimaced. She was struggling in her current position. She was lying on top of Elijah, and that wasn’t good—her stomach was getting squeezed.“Help me get out of here, Elisse. M-My stomach’s being squished!”Elisse immediately rushed to her side and tried to pry off the arm wrapped tightly around her. But Elijah only tightened his hold.“Can you behave, Elijah?! You’re squeezing your child!”Without warning, Elisse smacked Elijah hard on the head. His eyes snapped open, burning with irritation.“What the hell?!!!”“Let go of your wife first!

His breath warmed her skin, making her realize the heat she felt wasn’t from the pillow at all.How did Elijah get here? Was this a dream?She looked around. She was still in their room at the mansion, which meant Elijah had found her.She stared at his face for a moment before deciding to get up. She still hadn’t forgotten what he’d done, so she needed to keep her distance. Carefully, she lifted Elijah’s arm from her stomach—he’d been hugging her.

There were barely any students around—only a few uniformed utility staff. He turned his body to scan the area, but there wasn’t a single female student in uniform nearby. He crossed the street toward the stores and canteens. He asked around if a female student had waited there earlier, but everyone gave the same answer—none.He walked out of the last store he checked, frustrated.

Their class started at eight, but she decided to get ready early to ensure Elijah wouldn't be late for his work. She cleaned herself up and put on her uniform.
