"My name is Dexter Filigos. Surprise? HAHAHA!" The clown man said. I was baffled, I was full of disbelief at what he said. It was the name of my long-lost childhood friend who I thought died protecting me. I was thrilled yet scared at the same time. He changed, I know. But this change was not what I expect. Heck, I didn't even know he's alive.
" You're alive. How? I-I thought y-you- " That seems to be the only thing I can spat out since my brain felt like it stops operating. He stays silent as he slowly approaches me and turns me around. As I saw him in front of me, I can only stand still while staring at his masked face. He bring his hand up near my ear as he tuck a strain of my hair softly and said,
" I fight, Lily. For my survival. It's been a while ha? I missed you." I start to reminisce about my past as I keep on staring at him.I was so small at that time, maybe around 4 years old. I was wearing a baby pink dress with two pigtails, playing in the garden with
Upon hearing my nickname called, I flashed my eyes open and gasped for air as if I suffocated. I watched my surroundings and was trying to stand up, but I can't... something is holding me back.. a metal chain... no.... a handcuff. Wait?! A fucking handcuff?! Ugh! what a perverted guy. Don't they usually use rope?! Well, at least that's what I learn from watching anime."Well...Well... what do we have here? The Big Mafia boss's Little sister. Oh! did I spill the beans?" He gasps as he puts on a surprised face which even a baby knows it's fake."HAHAHA oh well, that guy deserves every pain there is, but you will make do sweety." His chuckled echoes throughout the whole room as I gritted my teeth. Hearing him being cocky makes me want to slap him across the face as hard as I can that it leaves a print of my palm in his face.I looked up only to see a silhouette of two men. One of them is what I assume the one who spoke just now and the other one must have been Dex, seeing
Hearing my word, his smirk grows bigger. After Dexter free me from the cuff he said, "good decision my dear... now let us start from my name hmm?? My name is Tim Bren, I work for the over known mafia Mikael Lenox." I scoff knowing that he turns out to be another lackey."You act that high and mighty and yet it turns out you're nothing but a lackey huh? " His face turns sour as he scowls his eyebrow, hearing my remark he gritted his teeth and speak," Watch your words bitch... I can kill you in a mere second and your childhood friends there can't even do shit about it. Mind your tongue if you don't wanna lose it, lass. " I clicked my tongue and rolled my eyes, "yea.. yea, whatever. I don't care about what pleases you and shit. Don't forget that I receive the basic combat training during my stay with Jacob and also I'm here only to fulfill my goal, and taking your head is one of them. I may be weak now but heed my words, Tim, I'll kill you before you know it." I said as
I woke up with the sound of alarm and sun rays passing through the half-curtained window. That's right. They give me a new phone since I left mine back at Jacob's place. Since coming here I haven't called my mom and informed her about my situation since I don't want to involve her, not in my current state. I get off my bed and go freshen up. I dress in a black tank-top and short workout pants. I tie my hair into a ponytail and wear my fingerless gloves. I go out of the room greeted by Dexter. He seems to be waiting for quite a while already and at the sight of my door opening, he sigh and said, "Finally! Took you hours to go out. Anyway, we're gonna start training right now. Hmm... seeing your outfit seems like you're ready. Good! Let's go." He warms up his muscle along the way by doing simple stretching. Looking at what he is doing I followed what he does and so we go to the training room. We walked to a hall with dimmer light and as I walk I can see a door right at the end
" Well, Mark... Hi. Now go away and mind your own business." I said to him with complete contempt yet without minding my word and insincerity, I didn't even accept his handshake yet he just grab my bleeding hand and said in a worried tone, "Your hand is bleeding, at least let me care for it. You are part of us now so as a doctor I can't ignore it. Even tho you don't care I do so for now just see it as you following my selfish remark."I am suspicious of his intentions in going to this length just for a small hand bruise. Is he a truly good guy? but he's part of the mafia, maybe he just wants to get closer to me so I would give him my trust, and then he would use me? Did he have any ulterior motive? " I know, you're suspicious of me but I didn't have any plan to harm you. "I sigh and just agreed " Ok, let's go then..."We arrived at the doctor's office. It was clean and had a strong smell of medicine and herbs. Three beds are separated by soft cream curtains. Ther
That time, we go to a cafe near the base called Orangeade to talk and it turns out that Mark and Dex have been creating a secret organization inside the gang called Shallow Rail. It's a rebel organization that was born inside of BlackJack, Mikael Lenox's Gang. I mean, corrupting it from the inside is easier than the outside but it also comes with a higher risk. I don't know how Dex and Mark meet but at least I believe that it's not a coincidence that I joined right at this time. Right now I feel as if God is toying with my fate. It's as if this is all planned. Even tho Dexter is my childhood friend but after what I've gone through it's kinda hard to truly believe in him some more Mark who I just meet today. But that day, I go back with a wavering feeling. It has been one year since then, Now I'm 18 years old and I also get closer to Mark and get to know his ambitions along with dex. I've decided to plant a trust in them and so I trained and joined the gang while also being a
Still in Jacob's point of view, I was still sobbing as I gobbled up the food. I look like a mess, my room was destroyed, clothes and bedsheets are torn and are scattered everywhere in the room, even though it's because of me smashing things around. My eyes were red from crying and my hair was messy and oily since it was unwashed for days. After I finished eating, Trev take the empty plates and bring them downstairs. Van goes to my bathroom and helps me prepare my bath. He then go back into the room and asks me to shower but I cut him off and ask him to tell me the news that he promised. Val sigh as he sits down beside me and said, " We found a clue on Lily. It turns out that she is taken by Scarlet Claw indeed. Mikael Lenox, that bastard took her using King Clown just as you suspected. I don't know how she is doing right now or if it's true she joined that gang but I heard from Eddie's team that they are planning to add a new member named ' The Rose Empress'. It's on
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
