Chapter 25: Epilogue
Argent
It has been six months since everything happened. Six months were I buried a great friend and colleague, killed a great foe, and found the love of my life.
Five months ago, Sebastian’s name was cleared, and the Confradia declared him the new director of the Mexico branch.
I recruited two new men in the process. Men who I knew I could trust. One of the men, Raven, was a former Army Ranger, and Drax was part of the Israeli Army. Both men were vetted personally by me and seem to be adjusting well to living in Brazil.
Voodoo, as predicted, accepted Logan’s offer to transfer to Los Angeles. Sebastian was more than happy to let him

Argent I’ve never wanted to kill anyone more than I do, my traitorous right-hand man, Sebastian, at this moment. In fact, I’ve been feeling a mixture of emotions since I learned of his betrayal─ hurt being one of them. Sebastian was, up until I learned of his deceit, my best friend, and that’s what hurts the most. For years Sebastian and I worked together. I thought we were friends─brothers. However, recently, I found out that he was dealing with the enemy behind my back. Now, I’m on his trail, and as soon as I catch him, I’m going to…well, let’s just say it’s not going to be a friendly talk that we’ll be having. Sebastian thought he could escape the Confradia’s wrath by faking his death during a boat accident, but he wasn’t very good at covering his tracks, which confuses me. However, I’m too angry to analyze his idiotic plan
The Assassin's Destiny VII Chapter 2: For the worst
Penelope “Okay, smile, and don’t forget to say cheese!” My friend, Lyria, calls out to me. Since we arrived in Brazil two days ago, Lyria hasn’t stopped taking pictures. We’re here because we were both accepted into a program in Rio. Over the past two years, I studied Botany at the University of Las Vegas until I graduated a couple of months ago. Lyria will be attending the University here for graduate classes. When the opportunity to work abroad in Brazil came up, we jumped on it. My mother’s family is from Brazil. And even though I have never lived here, I thought it would be cool to visit the place where my mom came from. Unfortunately, my mom passed two years ago, or she’d be excited to know that I was here. Her dea

Argent “Okay, so here’s your profile invitation code. As soon as they sent an invitation to this profile, I intercepted it, took the code, and removed the invitation from the actual user’s profile. As long as you give them the code, you should be good to go.” Mateo says as he shows me the information. I look through the profile, recording all of the facts in my mind before I look up again. “What kind of party am I going to?” “Fortunately, it’s a virgin auction, so we don’t have to worry about anyone getting killed.” He replies. I look at the screen to see if there is any more informatio
The Assassin's Destiny VII Chapter 4: The worst wounds are the ones that you don’t see
Penelope Nausea gathers in my stomach as I make my way to the guest bedroom. I can’t believe that I just molested, Argent. He looked so gorgeous and broody that I couldn’t help myself. I wasn’t joking with him when I said that I saw him when he walked into the auction room or thought he was hot. To be honest, he’s the most attractive man that I’ve ever met. I was drawn to his masculine bearing, golden hair, muscular body, and sharp hazel eyes from the first moment he walked in. Since the moment I sat on his lap, I have kept bouncing between anxiety and arousal. Something about him made me feel safe and needy. I don’t know why, but I wasn’t scared of him. Even when I thought that he was there to buy a woman. I know that it’s stupid and cheesy, but it feels as if my so
The Assassin's Destiny VII Chapter 5: Farewell… for now
Argent What am I doing? For so long, I’ve managed to keep my word. Yet, Penelope strolls into my life, and I’m acting like a teenage boy again. Of course, she’s stunning, but I’ve met plenty of attractive women whom I’ve managed to keep my hands off. The first time we kissed can be forgiven, but the others cannot. I intentionally kissed and touched Penelope again. I’d like to tell myself that it’s because I wanted to take away her sadness, but that’s not true. I wanted to touch her, and I wanted to kiss her, so I did. It doesn’t help that she responds so sweetly. I pace in my room that night, trying to find a way to rid my mind of my lustful thoughts, but my body betrays me. M
The Assassin's Destiny VII Chapter 6: Ever in my thoughts
Penelope It has been days since Argent dropped us off at our rental home. The first couple of nights were a little tense because we kept expecting someone to break down our doors. We even slept in the same bed together. However, as the days passed, we both began to loosen up. I still jump when I think I spot a woman who looks like the woman who took us in the distance. But I quickly talk myself down and recover. I don’t think I will ever forget that woman for as long as I live. Argent believes that she might have fled the country after the raid or even went underground because she couldn’t risk being caught. It also helps that Mateo has passed by to hang out with us. Lyria was grateful. The girl loves to cook and bake, especially when she’s stressed out, which means Mateo would leave the house fu
The Assassin's Destiny VII Chapter 7: Denial only hurts the one who denies
Argent “We still haven’t been able to locate Sebastian. It’s like he disappeared off the face of the earth. We’ve alerted every airport, but none have reported seeing someone that matches his description. Right now, we’re working on retrieving the true flight manifest because the one they used was false.” Mateo hands me a file. “They were good at hiding their evidence. They didn’t even log Sebastian’s flight. However, they didn’t account for other airports logging flights that have passed through. It’s all a matter of finding which one.” I wipe my palm across my jaw and lean back in my chair with an exhausted sigh. “Alright. Is that all?”&
The Assassin's Destiny VII Chapter 8: Bad endings
Penelope I woke up alone in bed this morning. Argent was my first, and he left me as if last night didn’t mean anything to him. Okay, so maybe I seduced him, but he didn’t push me away. Lying back on the bed, I close my eyes and take a deep breath. I didn’t know that sex could be so all-consuming. The way Argent’s body molded to mine and the feel of him bringing me to pleasure was like nothing I’ve ever felt before. However, all I feel now is a hollowness inside my heart. Since we met, I’ve felt this connection to Argent, and an urgent need has overwhelmed me. He’s so aloof and broody that even now, I don’t know if he wants me or if I was just a convenient lay. Instead of feeling sexy, I feel unsure and used.&nb
