Chapter: 19. Unwanted encounter - Part 1It was a sleepless night for quite a lot of people. While the twins’ thoughts were filled with Elise as they planned their next step to get her attention and catch her interest, the lady in question, however, had fixed all her focus on Borin Green. She had been looking for a good moment to capture him and had finally got it.Although she was vexed because it was the Sephyr twins who had helped her reach him, she wasn’t a stupid person to not accept their help. Their intentions could be anything but innocent. But it didn’t erase the fact that they had helped her catch a certain drug lord and for this at least, she was grateful to them.“Are we going to meet Chief now?” Kai questioned as he got inside the car.“Yes. Before we start, take a look at this.” Elise handed a file to Kai who took it with a questioning look.“What’s this?”“That’s about the prey we were trying to catch yesterday,” Elise muttered as she buckled her seatbelt while she waited for Kai to finish reading.“Holy fuckin

Chapter: 18. Cryptic wordsElise's eyes narrowed as she saw the two names at the bottom. Alarm bells went off in her mind and she pinched her thighs to clarify if she was dreaming.'This is not good. How did they find out?' Elise wondered. More than being frightened, she was vexed and she couldn't put a reason behind it. She didn't know why she was exasperated. But she was. The twins were getting on their nerves and she didn't like it.Elise wanted to inform Kai about the email. But she thought against it. The twins were clearly targeting her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have received the email out of nowhere.'But why?' Elise pursed her lips as she read the two names again and again.Elise pushed her against her cheek thoughtfully as she composed a reply.'Although I should be scared that you two know the reason why I was at your club earlier this evening, I'm more miffed because you're crossing your limits here. Please stay within your limits. Otherwise, it'll do you no good.'Elise.Elise sent the email before s

Chapter: 17. Email"What do you think, Elise? Do you suspect the Sephyr twins?" Kai glanced at his friend who was staring outside the window as they drove back home. The silence was oddly unsettling, especially after the dreadful incident and the nightmarish meeting with the twins. "I do. I definitely do. The Sephyr twins must be behind Craig's death." "Death?" Kai stepped on the brakes, forcing the car to come to a sudden stop and Elise jolted due to the sudden impact. "Do you have a death wish, Kai? Spare me. I don't want to die yet." She glared at him as she looked behind to see if they had hindered anyone else on the road. Fortunately for them, the road was deserted and they were alone. Otherwise, horns would have brought out their functionality in the dead of the night, scaring all the sleeping creatures away. "My bad, I apologize." Kai started driving again and this time, he was careful and alert. "Do you think Craig is dead?" "I don't think, I'm damn sure about it," Elise stated with convic

Chapter: 15. FiredAzael and Reuel approached the hidden door in the office and pressed a button. Behind the door was a staircase that led to another part of the club, the part that was hidden from everyone who didn’t have a membership.The guard by the stairs moved aside as soon as the two men appeared before him.“How’s everything tonight, Quin? Did something happen after I left?” Reuel questioned while Azael looked around.While Caleb was in charge of the club and the dance floor, Quin was in charge of the part they were in. He overlooked all that happened there, everything minuscule or huge.“No, Master Reuel. Everything is as usual.”“Good.” Reuel nodded.“How are you, Master Azael?”“I’m good, Quin.” Azael gave him a wicked smile. “I hope you didn’t wreak havoc in my absence.”Quin didn’t reply this time as he followed the two men.“Is Howard here?”“Yes, Master Reuel. He is. Should I bring him here?”“Yes. I don’t want to disturb the guests. They shouldn’t find out what we will be doing next.”“An

Chapter: 14. Dark desires"We understand. You may leave now." Reuel remained unfazed by Caleb's words and gestured with his wrist to leave.Although Caleb was surprised by the two men's reactions, he didn't dwell more upon it. They would handle the matter themselves. He did his duty of informing them. Bowing slightly, he left the office and the door closed after him.Reuel darted a glance at Azael who was already staring at him and his brother got the message immediately. In a blink, Azael was by the computer and his fingers flew over the keyboard as he tried to retrieve the video. He specifically targeted the time after they arrived at the club to get the lead.Reuel picked up his drink and stood behind his brother's chair as he stared at the screen curiously. Azael picked up the camera that pointed towards the entrance of the club and just as Reuel entered the club, a lady collided with him."Rewind it from there." Reuel's eyes flashed as he saw the woman on the screen. From this angle, they couldn't see h

Chapter: 13. Top-notch talentOther than Azael and Reuel, the three men jumped to their feet instantly. They were utterly spooked to find blood and immediately, their gaze turned to the twins.Oddly, the brothers were calm as they sat in their chairs. Their face was unfathomable and Elise couldn’t make out what was running in their minds. However, it didn’t matter to her. They may deny as much as they want. But eventually, their crimes would come to light one day. After all, karma was a bitch.“May I know whose blood this is?” Elise wasn’t as perturbed as her teammates. Instead, she continued to watch the twins as if she was not dealing with the two most dangerous men in the world but someone who she’d soon put behind bars.“That, Officer, is my blood.” Azael broke the tension in the air and Elise finally lost her composure.“Your blood?”“Yes. You see I was careless and injured my foot before you guys came.”“You got injured today?” Elise tone clearly depicted that she didn’t believe a word he said.“Yes.” Azael
