THE DEVIL'S TRAP Chapter 43: Curse
~DECKER~ When the sorrow comes, time stops. It felt like it would never move. The same thing I tasted when I saw Enzo and Amber enjoying their moments with each other. I was breaking it day by day. I didn’t know why I allowed Amber to use me, maybe because I thought she would see my dedication towards her one day. But I was wrong; she used me for everything. The day came when I heard Enzo talking to his friend about Amber. I was right; he was never serious about her. He used her for his pleasure. For a moment, I felt happy for her to accept me, but the very next moment, I felt terrible for her. I knew she loved him, and he was using her. My angel said to confront my brother and make him realize he was not doing a good thing by her, but my devil said, let there be a dispute between them; she should suffer; she used you for her benefit. Being a big brother, I thought about fixing things, even though this fire would burn me. “Enzo, how could you do this to Amber? She loves you.” He
THE DEVIL'S TRAP Chapter 44: Made me Devil
It’s been a long time since Amber’s birthday party. Decker used to stay out most of the time; he never liked to spend his night in the mansion, where he could encounter Amber and Enzo. But the day came when his good spirit gave up when he saw Amber’s face filled with red marks. She was alone, crying in the garden. “What happened?” “Nothing.” she tried to avoid his question. “There is nothing for you here,” she snapped. He left the place going rogue. He didn’t know how to control all this situation, “Senor,” “We are going to take back the place.” Another business matter was going on where the Russian tried to enter his territory. With Amber in his mind, he lost control. The matter could be solved with communication, but his anger flowed when he started shooting his enemy and created the blood bath. After killing his enemies, he was not satisfied. “Senor, you didn’t need to kill them,” “Don’t teach me how to do this fucking business, Vincent,” he snapped. Vincent sat next to him,

The next day, Adele woke up with a strained body. She strolled towards the bathroom. The hot water slipped down her muscles, making her feel relaxed physically, but her mind never felt strangled like this.

She didn’t know they assigned her to a task where she had to deal with a mafia king, who was her sister’s killer. As time passed, her senior revealed why they hired her on this mission. Her looks and appearance matched her dead sister and the only weakness of Decker Costello. “Sir, I am excited about my first case,” she said. “Detective Adele, I know how important this case will be for you and your career.” She stood in front of him with expected eyes. “But you should know why we assign you on this mission.

THE DEVIL'S TRAP Chapter 47: Is he Dead
“I want you to die,” she whispered. “And I want you to be my death,” he smirked. She released a sharp breath before trailing her eyes on his lips. “Bye, Mr. Decker Costello. I wish you death.” The guards opened the door, and there she left him alone in his room. “I need your help.” She called someone. “I am about to kill him,” Adele smirked. “And you need to be ready to help me.” She hung up the call and straightly went to Sam’s office. “Adele, what are you doing here?” “Can I call you dad?” Sam was surprised to see Adele’s behavior; she never called him dad. “Sure, you are going to be my daughter-in-law.” He smiled and patted her back, pulling the chair for her. “So, being my dad, can I ask you something?” He settled across the charcoal table, fidgeting with his fingers in front of his mouth, scanning Adele’s face. Hmmm, “It’s my wish to kill Decker. I want to give him a painful death.” Sam’s brow arched as his lips twirled up. “Wounded lioness, huh?” “Yes, he kille
THE DEVIL'S TRAP Chapter 48: Forbidden
Sitting in front of the doctor, Adele couldn’t forget the last word said by Decker. The doctor blotched the light on her cornea. Check left and right. Her pupils soaked the rays, but her breath didn’t hitch. “Breath in.” “Breathe out.” The doctor tried to wipe the blood drops from her face to check if it hurt anywhere around her. “No, don’t wipe the blood,” she reacted insanely. “Is she fine?” Elijah walked with a limping leg, “She is… she is in shock....,” the doctor replied, checking Adele’s blood pressure. “Adele,” Elijah called her name. Her subconscious mind reacted to her name as she shot her peer towards Elijah. “Are you ok?” He hugged her numb body immediately. “Are you hurt?” “I... I want to go home...” she whispered. Elijah read her urgency, “Ok, I will drive you,” He settled in front of the wheels and informed his senior about Adele’s condition. After some time, as the glimpses of Decker’s soul leaving his body crossed Adele’s mind, a lone tear fell from her pale f

“Is she at home?” Sam questioned the assigned officers at Adele’s house.“Yes, sir. After she left the hospital, we followed her here. We can see her apartment lights went off and on sometimes,” one of them answered.“Monitor her. She is smart, and I am sure she will do something.” Sam instructed.“Yes, sir.”“What else did you find from the hospital?”“Nothing special. The doctor said she had some hormonal problems; she was hallucinating.”“Fine, dig deep. I have a doubt she is up to something.”Sam hung up the phone. Sighed, fidgeting with his fingers, he was thinking about something.“Dad, how can you... what makes you think she would help Decker?”“Just shut your fucking mouth, Elijah.”“I felt Decker is alive, and your fiance was trying to protect him.” Sam snarled.Elijah jerked his body away from the chair, rested his elbows on the charcoal-colored table, and furrowed his brows.“She shot him in front of me.”“Now that’s where you are wrong, boy. Your bitch is smarter than you.
