Part One, Chapter Thirteen
There was a void in his chest.
Jean Luc knew he was running from reality. There was absolutely no way. Lucinda could not be the sinful, vile, wicked, brutal RD.
Although he dreaded to accept the truth, he must admit that it made so much sense. Her scars, her mysteries, her stories, her personality. It answered so many of his questions. He fell in love with a murderer. The murderer. He was so deep into it that he became blind.
He had been holding the hand of a demon. He had been tasting her skin. Making love to her. And for God's sake, he had enjoyed it. Tremendously.
Jean Luc had once heard stories of RD impaling someone with the leg of a chair. One of them even claimed that the demon fried their skin and stuck them on the wall for decoration. Was Lucinda really capable of that?
"Your name is Raven?" he asked. That made sense too. She made him say the name just a night before for a reason he was too tired to ask.
"I don't

There was a void in her chest.Raven hated it.Today was supposed to be a day of celebration. A day of freedom. A large part of her was so light and happy. Then, there was this infuriating feeling of guilt and loss.Jean Luc's fingerprint was used to open the door before he was escorted away by Darrow to a new home she purchased for him. Then, four members of the group strode as one into the house belonging to the irritating man who had been owing them money.They were criminals, with footsteps that almost synced with each other. A terrifying sight of two-third of the group that could end the world."Is it done?" Raven asked and received a nod in return."Everything is set. The cameras are off, too," Celie replied."Good. Follow the plan."Instantly, Zak, Blake left the group. Then, Celie separated from her to find the rich man himself. Raven would not have gone to such lengths to hunt him down if he was not a horrible person.

The last step to Raven's plan was already half done.She had been beginning to settle it ever since she started leaving her cottage frequently for the 'work' Jean Luc believed her to have.She bought a whole line of buildings from the previous owners, after discovering a safe method for a criminal to purchase land. Not just any land. A whole island--just for her family and herself. They would be the leaders they wish to be. She had plenty of debts after becoming an infamous murderer with many alliances who were just as dangerous as her. She could call in debts, use the money her crew had obtained and begin building a city. One that Domsville cannot be compared to.The group's last step would be blowing up a part of the town into shreds. To blow up the last piece of evidence that she was RD."Domsville? More like Doomsville," Blake said, proud of his little pun."No, more likeBoomsville," Zak added on. They both laughed.Raven

THREE YEARS LATERRaven felt two things within her soul perking up. One was disgust because she was back in the filthy and unchanged shore of Domsville again. The other was filled with glee and longing for the man she promised to come back to."You're ridiculous, you know that?" Darrow mumbled at her as a man from their private ship passed them and lowered his head in respect. "We caused explosions and riots in this place.""So?" Raven waved her hand dismissively. "They have no idea who we are, and if you need a reminder, we have the money to buy this whole ass town now.""It's been years, Red.""Leave her be, buddy. He's the only man out there that treats her right," Zak said. He glanced between them, then turned back to return to the ship. There were a dozen people fromMidazwho moved to their city and were working for the crew. Their pay was a pretty number."Alright then," Darrow sighed. "Let's go fin

Jean Luc thought he was hallucinating when he first gazed into the dark brown eyes he never forgot. The eyes of the murderer he had loved.Then, when she spoke in that too-familiar voice again, he felt his world crumbling down. He knew that was how he should have felt--like all his nightmares had compiled into one. He was ashamed to have felt something relight in him. Like an empty void filling itself at the mere sight of a demon.He had seen her for about half an hour. The pain of betrayal was still there, as were the memories from three years ago. It seemed like just yesterday when she left.Yet, things have changed.Not in his life, not really. He received plenty of opportunities to improve his life, and he took them all despite knowing most of them came from Raven. He had been working closer and closer to granting his biggest wish of a life away from Domsville.But of course, Raven had to show up now when everything was going okay. After he had

Jean Luc's heart was caught in his throat as he beheld the sight."Hi, darling," Raven laughed. It was a sound that made his heart speed. The smile she had on her face, the newer one with the gentleness. Suddenly, Jean Luc knew who it was for. "Are you giving your uncle a hard time?"The child still had that grin as he attempted to climb onto Raven's lap. Wild and ferocious, just like his mother. Jean Luc felt like he had stopped breathing."Yes, he did," Zak complained. "Didn't you?"The child nodded enthusiastically, and the table exploded into laughter. Jean Luc met Raven's eyes and realised she had been looking at him. He knew then. He knew who exactly was the father of that child.Raven ruffled the hair of the kid, then whispered something that made the child nod and sprint away with Zak behind him.Jean Luc shot up from his stool without thought. His mind was racing as he stalked towards Raven and grabbed her wrist. It still kills him

When Raven discovered that she might be bearing a child three years ago, theSoardinawas not yet developed in the slightest. She had told Celie first, then they had to travel to the island closest to them,Midaz, to get the confirmation."I can't believe we're doing this," Raven had muttered bitterly. "We're wasting time inMidazwhile the others are probably messing up the land.""We can't just treat it like it's impossible. I mean, you and that guydidhave sex and both of you were probably so horny that," Celie gestured around the clinic they were in, "this happened.""No shit sherlock," Raven replied with a straight face.Then she discovered Celie was right, and she did not know how to feel.It was literally the worst time to bear children. And Raven, a wanted murderer, as a mother? That might be the most ridiculous thing on earth.Raven always knew what to do, yet t

Jean Luc still could not believe the fact that Raven had raised his children without his knowledge. His mind was still racing even after he left them because they needed their nap.He needed drinks in his system, and he was thankful for the bar room. Darrow did not accompany him this time, and he was glad to be alone with his many thoughts.However, he was abruptly interrupted by a man."Ay, you mind?" he asked and pointed to the seat beside Jean Luc. The man seemed rather nervous."No, take a seat," Jean Luc replied, then took another sip of his alcohol."Thanks, man." He was definitely nervous. By his soft tone and little stutter, Jean Luc felt as if he had somehow offended him. The reason was very much unknown. "Ah, I can't believe I'm doing this right now.""Doing what?" Jean Luc questioned."Sitting beside you." He thought the man was a tad crazy if he thought sitting beside an ordinary person was surreal."Jean Luc," he i

Jean Luc awoke to the sound of people.Outside the ship, voices erupted and cheered. Jean Luc couldn't make sense of it. He barely had enough sleep with the thoughts constantly racing in his mind.They reached their destination.Soardina. Jean Luc would be lying if he claimed he was not interested in what the city looked like. He could vaguely remember his mother uttering a series of praises for the place, carried down by the opinions of many. It sounded like a beautiful place, but Raven could have simply portrayed it as such.He knew her enough to know such plans could easily be carried out.Exhausted, he managed to get ready for the morning. He took the time to understand what the people outside their ship were screaming.Raven.They were cheering her name with all they got.In a less groggy state, Jean Luc was able to remember that Jay had said, "I think you'll be surprised how many people love and look u
