Inka's Point of View"A cruise ship?" I asked as they put all of the blueprints and images at the table."Yup. This grand ball is held by an Emperor as what he calls himself." Josh answered as he looked at the scattered images"And who is this Emperor you speak of? does he gave off a name?" I askedThey all shook their heads."It's against the rules to let the others know your name unless you ally with them. Knowing your identity means giving trust." Wayne explained as I nodded"The theme of today's ball is--""Masquerade. We know, since he held it, he wants it to be a masquerade so people wouldn't know who he is." Read cut Andrew off"Is this Emperor a villain or what?"They a
Inka's Point of ViewA week had passed and everyone was busy for the grand ball, Read continuously drives me to and from my work. We were both busy with our works, but he never forgets to make sure that I am safe.I asked him if he could train me but he refuses that idea and told me that he could always protect me which I opposed but he ignored me. I tried asking the others but they were all too busy to train me so I secretly went to Read's gym when he's not around and just worked out."Aren't you going to train me?" I asked Read once again as he drove me towards my company."We have discussed this already, Inka. I said it once, and I'm gonna say it again, my decision is final and it's a NO." He answered"I just don't g
Inka's Point of View"Is everything ready?" I heard Read asked through his phoneI looked outside of our car and saw the cruise ship, a lot of people are arriving and entering the ship already. I took a glanced at Read as he was discussing something to Wayne. I feel like something is going to happen later, they just didn't tell it to me, I can feel it.I ran my fingers at the fabric of my dress, under this at my thighs are a small gun the Read gave me before we went here together with my small knife.That already gave me a hint that something is going to happen here. I heaved a sigh and readied myself for whatever plans that these guys have."Okay, We'll meet you there." He put his phone back to his pockets and opened the car door.
Inka's Point of ViewRead held my hand all the time until the Auction had started, I was trying to calm myself down but I was really nervous. "Can you at least tell me where are the others? I can't really calm myself down." I told to Read while he was looking at the small list of the items for tonight, he glanced at me then went back to the list as he heaved a sigh."Wayne is at the top floor of the ship, Andrew behind us 6 tables away from us while Josh is behind the stage, he will be the host later." He answered, I nodded and discreetly looked behind us, I saw Andrew talking to a guy, He was wearing a midnight blue tailored suit and a golden mask that covers the upper half of his face. Somehow I had calmed down a little but still, I can feel someone is watching me. I looked around the place and saw a guy upstairs, near the door, he was looking at my way-- actually he IS looking at ME. He was wearing a mask but only the lower half of his face is hidden. I stood up and told Read tha
Inka's Point of View"Where's Read?" I asked as I approached him"Inside killing someone who provoked him." He answered while shooting I stood behind him and took my small gun, looking around I saw a lot of men in their suits fighting, some even have their swords."What the heck happened in here, anyway? I thought this was going smoothly?" I asked and fired someone"We already expected this, the moment you went out of the hall we knew that Read wouldn't control his temper anymore. That's why we were busy for the past weeks." He explainedI ran out of bullets so I took my other knife and threw it at the guy running towards us. I dodged the punch that was supposed to hit my right face and punched him back at his face, he stepped back a little and tried to gain his posture but I kicked him at his chin that threw him back as he went unconscious."So you trained while we're gone," Wayne commented and I just shrugged my shoulders and winked at him"Let's go, Josh and Andrew are already wait
Inka's Point of ViewThe sun shined from the windows that made me groaned. I opened my eyes and looked around as I realized that I am in an unfamiliar place. I looked at my side and saw Read sleeping peacefully. Ah, right! Were on his private island. I stretched my arms and jumped out of the bed, I walked to the bathroom and made my morning routines.After doing my things, I walked out of our room and went downstairs, I saw Andrew drinking some coffee."Hey, Andrew!" I greeted and went towards the fridge.I looked around and decided to cook some breakfast which are french toast, bacon, and oatmeal."How was your sleep?" He asked while I pre-heated the pan"Good. Actually, that was my good sleep after a long time." I answered, he hummed and continued sipping his coffee."What are you going to make? Can I help?"I nodded and told him to prepare some 2 cups of oatmeal while I cook the bacon.
Inka's Point of View"How's the list going?" I asked as I entered Read's officeThe boys had gone out to attend some important business, Read and I was the only one at his house so I went inside his office to ask him. "I'm getting there. I already eliminated the ones who didn't stay at the Main House for over 2 months. I got 50 people who need to be checked on what they did during the time my brother was killed." He answeredI nodded and walked behind him to give him a little massage. He groaned and leaned back to me, I smiled and hummed a little. He took my hand that made me stop so I looked at him confused about the sudden changes of mood."Did you bring any dress?" He suddenly asked which I raised an eyebrow to.I shook my head as he nodded."Okay, I need you to do something for me. Would that be okay?" I nodded and went in front of him"You'll meet Wayne later outside, tell him that you both needed to go to the town and buy something. Wayne already knew about this so he wouldn't a
Inka's Point of ViewWe roamed around the town. It was like an ancient place away from the true civilization of our country. Though this town also has its own phones and signal routes, still the interior and the design of every building here are so ancient."I guess Read is like the Leader of this Island," I muttered whereas Wayne heard it and looked at me"I guess so too since he was the one who helped these people have their own technology and livelihood." He answered in which I nodded.We roamed around and bought some stuff, I was paying for the fruits that I bought when I heard someone screamed. I turned around and saw a lady running, she was distraught and pale. I looked at Wayne and saw that he was on full alert.He looked at me and I nodded telling him to follow the girl. He was hesitant at first but I glared at him. He heaved a sigh and followed the girl who was running. I looked back at the place where the girl came
