The corridor was buzzing with noises as the guards kept on moving in and out of each prison cell to take out the young and innocent girls who were locked up inside. The girls who were unlucky to be dragged out were wailing in disobedience. Their loud voices echoed throughout the entire basement level and if someone heard it, their eardrums would break. The sound came from the dim prison cells that were found in an underground basement of an abandoned building somewhere in Rizal and owned by an organization called The Red Dragon Society. On the outside, this building looked ruined, but a grisly crime was being done inside. There were no guards stationed outside but the entire perimeter of this building, which stretched into kilometers, was protected. The guards were actually living in a small hut not far away from the building and beside that small hut was a barn where they stocked up on their illegal weapons in case of an enemy invader. Not just that, the entire hectare of this land w
After two years of roaming the world killing and executing his missions from Trace and Morelli, Keyller is back on Agrianthropos island. He was there to ask Boss Trace for the design of the house he wanted to build on the island. And that he was having trouble because Trace Dimagiba was being difficult."Money first, Hayes." Trace leaned his back on the recliner chair in front of his house and puffed up smoke from his expensive cigarette, but he knew that it was not an ordinary cigar but a weed wrapped in rolling paper. He then put out the fire in the ashtray without finishing it.Keyller raised his brows, looking at the unfinished cigarette that was wasted by Dimagiba. He couldn't bear to see things gone to waste, but this was Dimagiba. He has a lot of money to burn."Boss, just put it on my tab. I will pay once I get my money. You know that I couldn't run away from you, right?" Keyller silently blew his suppressed breath that he didn't even know he was holding. His knuckles turned wh
It was the lovely and sweet voice that interrupted the two. The owner of the voice smiled widely as she inched closer to the two. It was Chloe, Trace's girlfriend. She stopped and wound her arms against Trace's waist before kissing him on his lips. While Trace lowered his gun and hid it back on his waist.Keyller watched the two in their passionate affair while remaining standing at the side. Chloe was an exception from his loathing against women. This woman had nothing to do with his affairs, but he was always still wary, as his trauma triggered when he was near women."That's enough teasing, Trace. Why are you messing with Key again?" Chloe asked after their lips broke apart. Though, the loving gaze she had toward Trace was still visible.Trace's arm rested on Chloe's and he pulled her closer before answering his girlfriend. He looked at Chloe bewilderedly. "Key, what key? Ano'ng akala mo sa tanginang 'yan susi?" Trace rolled his eyes as he spared Keyller a look before nuzzling his f
"Patawad, pero hindi ko po sinusubukang tumakas!" I'm sorry, but I am not trying to run away!Lot 520 squeezed her eyes shut as her face was pressed harder against the wall by the guard who found her. This was the henchman that was stationed to accompany her. She didn't fight back because she knew this was not an enemy, so he let the man do whatever he wanted.Lot 520 was with Doctor Lacsamana earlier when she suddenly got lost because of throngs of people in the lobby when they came down from the doctor's clinic. She didn't want to think that Lacsamana had actually tried to take her away and escape the syndicate, even though that was the reality.They were in an expansive building that was unfamiliar to Lot 520. She didn't have any idea why she was with the doctor and without any henchman on her side, while when they left the basement cell she was clearly escorted by a few guards. Lot 520 was puzzled about how the doctor escaped the henchmen and she thinks that he had another comrade
She was about to speak when the man pulled a sword from behind him and, without a word, he forcibly plunged it into the chest of the unresisting henchman. The chocolate-eyed guy was not satisfied, and still using the sword, he slashed the poor henchman in the neck and then stood up after making sure that he was no longer alive. The sword in his hands was dripping with blood and sipped on the carpeted floor, but the guy stood firm on the ground without feeling remorse after killing the henchman. He killed easily, like killing an ant. Lot 520 became vigilant.Lot 520 stared blankly. She was even more confused about what to do. When her boss finds out that a henchman died because of pursuing her, they will hurt her even more. And worse, she will be imprisoned for a longer time."Pakiusap, tumigil ka na!" Lot 520 begged. She couldn't help shouting while she was on the verge of tears. She was afraid that a heavier punishment would be imposed on her, knowing that the henchman had completely
"Stop struggling or I will tie you up!" Keyller tightened his grip on the woman, not giving her a chance to escape as he continued walking out of the building. He couldn't help the irritation that crept up inside when the woman kept on fighting him even though she knew that she wouldn't win."Sabi nang magsalita ka ng Tagalog at hindi kita maintindihan!" she rebutted while threading her legs and trying to kick his back. I told you already that you speak Tagalog because I could not understand English!Keyller shook his head involuntarily as he gritted his teeth. They had been exchanging words for quite a while, yet they still couldn't understand each other. He didn't understand a single word coming from this woman and he felt like he was walking in the dark without an idea where he would go. He needs someone to translate for him. But who? He cannot just ask Chloe or else Boss Trace will kill him for troubling his woman so much.Keyller let out a frustrated sigh when he arrived outside t
Keyller didn't dilly-dally and went straight to the point. He quickly took a glance at the woman who was still mumbling, before speaking again. "I'll wait for you at my place." Keyller stepped on the gas pedal when he hit the main road and the car traveled faster. He was feeling confused. There was a big question mark written on his forehead. Why did he help the woman even though he knew that he hated her species? "S-stop! Dahan-dahan lang!" Slowly! The woman at the back suddenly screamed. There was a trace of fear in her angelic voice. But Keyller is Keyller. He turned a deaf ear and continued driving like he was on the racing field, completely ignoring the woman's fear. He was only doing this to flee from their enemy. "What the hell, Hayes! Who is that with you?" Kit was stupified as he asked from the other line. "I can't believe that you have a woman now. Did the Earth turn the wrong way? And why is she asking you to go slow? Are you two having fun?" Kit added. There was a trace
"So you're planning to imprison this woman here?" Kit asked in disbelief when they reached his condominium. He pointed to the woman who was lying on his bed. Keyller shook his head. "Imprison is not the right term, Marzonia. I just brought her here temporarily while I'm confused about what to do with her." "Why would you of all people, Hayes? You can just leave her in a safe place if you're really worried." "I know. But..." Keyller heaved a deep sigh. Didn't know how to explain to Kit. "But your conscience wouldn't let you leave her anywhere, is that it? Does this young lady awaken your protective instinct?" Kit asked directly. His eyebrows lifted while staring intently at Keyller's face. Keyller just shrugged his shoulders. He didn't want to admit anything to Kit. He was confused about what he was doing. Besides, the woman was already there, lying in his bed and he just couldn't throw her out. It's too late to do that. His condo unit only had one bedroom because he was not expe
