MasukCELINE POV

“We’ll do it?’” I said, repeating his question. “There’s nothing you can use to intimidate me anymore, Lucian. If you’re plotting something else, I swear I’ll not waver for a second before I take your life.”
“You’re now being heartless. This is what you get for being with Lance?”
“No.” I replied firmly. “I became this way because of you, because of what you did.&r
CELINE POV-I did what Lucian told me to.I took a shower and changed into comfortable clothes. Pajama pants and an oversized shirt.Everything I need is complete in the master bedroom. There’s a wide variety of clothing available to pick out.Honestly, every single thing in the whole house is complete, even all the kids’ stuff. The only thing missing now is someone to live here.After drying my hair with a hair blow dryer, I exited out of the bathroom and saw Lucian had just entered this room. He had a tray with a bowl of nachos, burritos, sliced strawberries, and a pitcher of juice and water.“Come on, let’s head to the small living room first, hon. I’ll go set up the TV now.”“Sure, I’m coming right after you.”He smiled and went to the mini living room of this room.The moment he turned away from me, I hurried over to my bag lying on the bed.I was reassured to find my gun still in my bag, with ammunition still inside.I tucked my gun away in my bag all over again, hiding it c
CELINE POV-His words didn’t register with me at first.Gradually one corner of my lips lifted then I laughed a little.“Promise? Have you forgotten how many times you broke my trust? Not only my trust, you broke the trust of the only family you have left.”My whole body trembled with furious, remembering everything he had done.“After everything you’ve put me through, do you think I’d believe a word you say?” I stifled my tears completely, not allowing them to linger so much as linger at my eyelids.“You have to believe me, Celine...” Tears gathered in the corners of both his eyes. “I swear. Just say yes to this last thing I ask of you, and I’ll stay out of everyone’s way for good.”“You won’t stir up trouble anymore? Now that I’m standing here before you, along with everyone else, you know–” I cut off my intended words.Lance and the others may even get dragged into what they’re up to, and Lucian will likely make other plans the moment he finds out they’re already acting on things.

This is what you get for being with Lance?”“No.” I replied firmly. “I became this way because of you, because of what you did.”His smile quickly disappeared from his lips. “I’m sorry.”My brow furrowed at his sudden statement.The way he says that, it makes it seem like her apology is true.“Let’s go inside first. Some of our neighbors might see us and get the wrong idea or think something else.”“Why on earth would I go in there with you?”“Don’t worry, Celine. This is just an ordinary house. I have no one
CELINE POV-I got ready as the pilot informed us we were approaching Chicago, and within minutes we’d be touching down at the airport.This morning, when I left the mansion using Astrid’s car, I drove it for almost an hour and left it in a public park.I’m not familiar with Astrid’s vehicle, it could have a tracking device installed. That’s also the reason I left my phone in the car. Additionally, I discovered a tiny tracking device attached to my bag.I suspected Lance had put it in my bag.The only things I took from my bag were money and my gun, things that I don’t think had tracking devices.I purchased a working phone at second-hand cellphone stores. This was to ensure it hadn’t originated from members of either the Fire-Hart or Dark organization.I also changed my sling bag and clothes and bought them from non-branded shops.Following the plane’s arrival at the airport and my departure from it, I sent a message to Lucian’s contact number.‘I’m already here in Chicago.’ I sent h
Within the casino hotel, Mr. Yuichi Yamamoto, acting on his own, overpowered upwards of one hundred individuals and the head of the criminal syndicate partnered with Lucia—an individual consumed by rage and envy over the power wielded by them in the illicit underworld.He wiped his lower lip that had been scratched.“Tch.” he said angrily.He ran off toward the rooftop. Once he got to the hotel’s top floor, he set off the bombs he had hidden on every single floor, and afterward proceeded to the rooftop.As soon as he got to the rooftop, he hopped into the helicopter and instructed the pilot to proceed to the following site where the target was situated.——————————Meanwhile, Hendrix and Lance who went to the fifth property that Lucian might be hiding were not seen.“Motherfvcker!” Lance roared, shooting Hendrix an angry look. “Are you playing me for a fool? Why in the h*ll is your fvcking brother still nowhere to be damm*t found?”“Stop calling my sibling a motherfvcker,” Hendrix was
•• THIRD PERSON POV ••-From a rooftop between five buildings, two underbosses of the Dark Organization—Dylan and Vince use a telescope to watch their target: a mafia boss who worked with Lucian.“That ugly guy has been waiting for too long.” Vince complained impatiently.From inside the building, a few members of the Fire-Hart organization, Zak, Johann, and Ronnie, finished off the two members of the organization one by one. Even though there were fifty times as many of them as the three of them, they had no trouble knocking down everyone who stood in their way.When each of them finished off the last enemy, they turned on their earpieces and informed the members of the Dark organization of what had happened to them.“I’m done.” Zak said, catching his breath.“I have at last overcome every single one,” stated Johann, proceeding toward his subsequent stop.Ronnie fired and hit his final enemy, then informed others of the situation: “I’ve taken care of everyone here too.”Johann
