ELINNA

With the amount of things I'd been dealing with in the past month, it was only allowed that I would forget things I don't seem Imoortant at the time.

Things like the stranger who I had met in the hospital that night after the shoot out.

Mark Luxembourg.

I'd been coming down the elevator, my whole mind wanting to go to my car so I can get home as quickly as possible.

When I got to the ground floor, my phone started buzzing and as I searched through my bag for it, I bumped into someone and my bag fell from my hand.

“I’m so sorry. I didn't realize where I was going. Forgive me if I hurt you.”

I was too busy packing the things that fell from my bag that I didn't even look up at who was in front of me.

I heard a scoff.

“Elinna? Mrs Elinna?”

I recognied his voice right away and I looked up to see him with a smile.

“I’m right, it is you.”

I felt more at ease knowing that it was him and I returned the smile, taking his hand and letting him help me rise to my feet.

    CARLISLE I kicked the door in and stormed in, my footsteps echoing. I wanted to break something. To resist looking like I’m throwing a tantrum, I reeled all those violent thoughts in and yelled into the house. “Where are you? You bloody bastard! Come out here now! How dare you! How dare you come near my wife!” My voice reverberated around the much empty house. He came downstairs with a frown on his face. “You have some damn nerve coming into my house. How dare you?! How did you get past the men at the gate?!” That’s what he’s worried about? I scoffed. “You think those weak pieces of shit can stop me?” I felt insulted. Those things he kept outside his house weren’t even good enough to guard my food but that wasn’t my focus right now. “Listen to me, I didn't come here to see your ugly ass face. I came here to tell you to stay away from my wife!

    CARLISLE“Its no news to anyone of you what happened to these men. These are the risks that you all accepted when you came to work or me. Whether you work here or back home,you're at risk because I have a lot of enemies. And today, our enemies have struck. And we have to bury two of our brothers. Even though I don't know who the other man is, I can tell that he was important to our business and whatever he had to offer was important and that's why he was in the car. It breaks my heart that I lost these people in this way because they didn't deserve to die.”I gave Alex the signal and they lowered both coffins into the ground and I threw the first rose on both coffins. “Charlie, you were of great use to me. You always wanted to be by my side and that's why you did till the day you die. I can't tell you how grateful I am that you were loyal to me. I promise that I'll never forget you.”I don't even know how I want to tell his parents that the

    CARLISLEI'd come here to see Chase because I wanted to make it up to him. But it was weird to come and not see Elinna. When I asked that guard of hers where he was, he didn't know. How would he be her guard and not know where she went? Except he didn't want to tell me. When she walked through the door, Chase was the first one to notice her. I looked up at her as she closed the door. Since when did she start going to the gym? I knew she was in good shape but never had she mentioned going to the gym before. “Mum, see all the toys dad brought for me. Aren't they nice?” She raised her eyes to look at me for one moment before smiling at Chase. Who wears lipstick to the gym? And why did she have dropping earings on? Was she dressing up for someone in the gym? That would explain a lot of things because I have never known her to go to the gym so maybe there was someone she

    ELINNAFound a way to get back at him? “What way is that?”The fact that he kept smiling through all these things just made me uncomfortable. How could he be so calm?“Oh, don't worry. But I'm just getting started with him. By the time im done with him, I would have taken his family and everything that he loves.”Despite the smile, I could see the determination in his eyes. It was like something flipped in him because he was holding that glass a bit too strong but he let it go before it broke. I knew it was none of my business but this didn't sound very nice.“You want to take out his whole family? They're innocent. Don't let him reduce you to his level. You're better than this.”He burst out laughing, so loud that I suddenly felt embarrassed. There was no one in the room with us asides some guards. “I’m sorry for being so loud but you talk about standards? He killed my whole family and then hun

    ELINNA“What the hell am I doing?” I asked myself as I clutched the steering wheel. I was already in the car, all dressed up and ready so there was no turning back now. But that didn't mean that I would not still ask myself if I had lost it because it genuinely felt like I had. Why on earth was I doing this? It wasn't going to help me in any way. Maybe it was because I wanted to get back at Carlisle..But the more I think about it, what was so hard in what Emily asked me to do? It's not like the person was a stranger. Just go in, see him, and say hi. The long term goal was to make him fall for me. When she said that, I was thrown off guard because it felt like I was some undercover agent. I pulled up in front of his house, honking and waiting for someone to come open the gate. It took a while but someone actually came. “Who are you and what are you doing here?”The man was looking at me as if he knew what I

    CARLISLEAs much as it may look like a normal accident, I didn't want to believe that it was. They were targeted. “Alex, bring the video clip of the accident again.”No matter how many times I watched it, my heart always skipped a beat when the car hit the wall. It was also very obvious that I didn't know anything that was going on inside the car. “Alex, the car's dash cam. Do you think you can get something off it? I think I saw it here somewhere?”It had been burnt in the fire but I hoped that Alex would be able to get something from it. I needed to know what the state of things were inside the car. I watched him as he worked, giving him space so he doesn't feel overwhelmed. At some point, I couldn't help but feel like maybe I should have let the police handle it. But no, I couldn't risk some crucial evidence in this case getting lost because someone was on the enemy's payroll. In the meant
