I nod in response and take one last deep breath. I'm finally getting my own standing in here and tonight is going to be my first achievement since I started doing all this stuff. I'm finally getting the recognition I deserve. We go down along with Mark and ride our Audi R08. When we arrived, I see the club full of people from normal lackey to high-rank businessmen in the underground society. It was loud and full of people from our gang. I never thought that we would have this many relations with famous CEO. I go towards one of the VIP tables on the second floor and meet up with a high-end-looking man. Mark goes and sits beside him just like that. Which kind of shocked me a little since the moment we arrive his goofy and funny personality disappear as if it never exist. In total it was 4 people who sit there including me. Dex sits beside me and I whispered to Dex "Psst... Dexie, Who is that guy beside Mark?"
Hearing my question he directly put a hand on my mouth as I can see
As I said that I hear the crowd start to heat up and Mikael goes beside me. He whispers to me, " What game are you playing? There is no way a rat can pass by. This event holds a maximum security cycle, even though Tim is not here to monitor it. But this arrangement is made by him."I scoffed at his remarks and with a smug face, I look towards the crowd that is busy going after the intruder as I give my response to his words. "Impossible? Hahaha If this is maximum security then it's probably the reason why you lose to my brother and end up in the second place or maybe, Tim's plan has a flaw that even you can't see." As I finished my word I look at him as I saw his face turned red and he huffed in frustration. He glared at me with contempt as he put pressure on his word as he said to me, " Hon, Don't mess with me just because you got your authority already. I won't take that kind of insult from the likes of you. Dare to brag about that asshole of a brother while here you are, i
After hearing my word he looks dismayed and said "Lily, please. What has gotten into you?! Is it brainwash? huh?! Or did they tell you something? Liliane, everything they said is a lie. Don't believe in the- " I cut his word with anger plastered on my face as I glared at him and speak with cold and sharp words as if I'm is made of ice." Shut up! Whatever they say, lie or not, it doesn't matter anymore. The fact that you all betray my trust and deceive me is true. It's there and it's real. So save your words and take me on Lucas. Or are you turning into a coward because you're cornered and there is no hope of backup? HAHAHA, you look pathetic right now Luc." I tried to provoke him and seeing how his dejected face turns into anger tells me that my word gets him. At that moment I run to him, not giving him time to react as I launch my punches. Damn! That hit is good, the punch was solid and hard. I was smiling as I trows my punch at him. He was having a hard time ke
I felt pathetic. Having to retreat like this. It took a lot of effort for me to said that to Trend since my pride was big. Also, me being a boss and a leader who always leads a victorious mission. This can be considered my first failure. My lack of composure leads my men to be injured and even died. I felt an enormous amount of shame but at the moment, we have to get Reaper back from King Clown. Trend leave me to bring Luck back to the van to get first aid from Nerve while I run down the corridor and hallways to look for Reaper. After what felt like hours, I finally found him. He was left there, unconscious in the broadcast room. There was no sight of King Clown but taking him out till the van will be a hard task since there are still people out there who are rampaging. It's impossible to go out without fighting. Lucky me, there was a water dispenser in there. It must've been for the staff but at this moment, it's the perfect tool for me to wake him up. I take the paper cup
The ride back home was very quiet yet doesn't feel uncomfortable. It was a good silence yet something was tugging my heart. It gives me a weird feeling. I think about Val's confession again and my determination. My effort of coming this far. I can't give up especially when things have gone this far. Now, there is no turning back. He says he loves me since college but how did that feeling even bloom? His confession is making things more complicated than it should. For me, this is not the time for any love relationship yet I can't seem to put his confession aside. Dex was resting beside me after taking care of all the corpses with the cleaner and also finishing the paperwork for the furniture compensation along with bribing the people around to keep a silent mouth. I look towards Dex as I saw his lips bruised and his knuckle black and blue, this must be when he was fighting Jaxon and his men. I brush my hand over his knuckle slowly as I saw him flinch at the contact. I softly
I told Vanessa about Val's confession to me and all the things that have been going on throughout my head about my relationship with Val now that we've followed a different path. We're basically enemies and some more I can't have any sort of attachment to him in order to accomplish my revenge. I was conflicted with what was the right thing to choose. I love Val but I'm not sure if it's his kind of love. I've known him since college because he was my friend's friend. I knew Luna since we were in the same class, then I know Val through Luna who apparently also knows Val due to being in the same group during student gatherings. Since then we started hanging out but my love for him is more like a best friend or sibling love. " What does your heart say, Liliana? " Vanessa ask me, stopping my train of thought. " I don't know Nessa, I feel like I should go with my revenge since I don't have time to fall in love right now but I also can't ignore his words. Enemy or not he is V
It was morning and now I'm getting ready to start the day. I wore blue jeans with a simple white crop top along with my favorite black leather jacket. Leaving my blazing hair down while I put on a simple natural makeup. Once I'm done, I wore my black combat boots ready to go out. But then, my charged phone light up, and a notification pop." Damn, I almost forget my phone." I said while walking over to my nightstand and pick up my phone to see a message saying, " Be down ASAP, u gotta go to meet with Mikael." It was from Tim and then another ding comes. This time Vanessa text me, " It's time girl, go down to the main hall that's located in the B wing corridor 15. Mikael and the rest are waiting. Don't let them wait too long or it'll be trouble. " I squeal at the news remembering that it's time to get my people then I text back at Vannesa saying "I'm ready, on the way down". I'm finally getting my own man. I go out of my room to rush down to start my long-waited recruiting.Now
As I arrived at the hall, I stood a couple of seconds in front of the door before entering. The moment I step in, everyone's eyes were on me. Dexter, Mikael, Tim, Vanessa along with Mark and their division's members. There was a large circle table laced with luxurious accessories such as burgundy red table cloth with golds dangling down, a large and exquisite vase filled with red and black roses. The hall was lighted up by a beautiful golden chandelier. 5 chairs were surrounding the table but one was empty. The members all seated behind their leader leaving Vanessa behind a single empty chair. I sat down there, on a spot beside Mikael which 'coincidently' was empty. I squirt my eyes in suspicion but then brush it off as I seat and thus the meeting begins. "Now that everyone is here, we shall start the meeting. Today is the first day for Liliana Terrance to join our meeting with an official title of a Queen. The position that has been vacant for so long is fulfilled by our bi
They stay silent as they listen to my story, not even stopping to drink their coffee. "I was scared but my curiosity got the best of me. Also, it would be nice if we could find his weakness and story. If we get to know him more, we could find an opening to attack. It could be our major advantage when we rise, as Shallow Rail. You're not planning to stay and act loyal to him forever right? We have to move sooner or later. My plan is to move in 2 or at most 3 years. After I established my division, combined with your's and Mark's division, we would have plenty enough. With that, if we could have a relationship with another lower or newbie gang, we could increase our group's strength. Or maybe we could look for people on the streets that can join us or maybe if we're lucky, we find kids that can be trained from small. Before y'all protest, I'm not saying we force them, it's just a proposal." I finished as they just nod their head in silence and finally took a sip of their drinks, as do
