The Last Dict Standing Chapter 23: Main Event
Athena's POV:"Did you know her?" I asked Junior, looking at him in disbelief.Junior becomes agitated. He opens and closes his mouth several times before forming words to say, "Well, it's a very long story to tell," he said, scratching the back of his neck."We made love at the bar." Lilith boasted about it with a broad smile on her face.I suddenly felt pain in my chest, like my heart was being sliced and diced by a thousand blades. The battle hasn't even begun, so why do I feel like I've already lost?"Junior, is that true?" I locked my gaze on Junior. When I found out he had sex with Lilith, I almost failed to maintain my blank expression."That wasn't the right term," he stutters, trying to defend himself.Lilith knew that she was making everyone uncomfortable, especially Junior, and I could see the sparkles in her eyes that she was enjoying every minute of it. "Oh, yeah, it was just a one-night stand," she admitted, a devious smirk on her face.Even though I already knew the ans
The Last Dict Standing Chapter 24: Out of the ordinary
Junior's POV:"Red, you need to get back here as soon as possible!" I requested him."Junior, calm down. What's going on?" Red spoke worriedly on the other line of the phone."It's about Athena!" I blurted it out. "She's regained her senses!" I got right to the point.There is total silence on the other line. Red paused for a moment before returning to our conversation."How is that even possible?" he asked in disbelief."I have no idea, and that's why I needed you back here to figure it out," I asked desperately."You know I can't, but I promised you I would try my best to get back as soon as possible." I can hear him release an audible sigh of frustration."She even has some of her memories back," I went on to say.Ever since I learned that Athena has all of her senses back, she has confessed to me everything, including the return of some of her memories. She may not have gotten it all back, but everything is gradually returning to her. I just don't want to put too much pressure on
The Last Dict Standing Chapter 25: Love vs Lust
Junior's POV: I was taken aback by Athena's aggressiveness. She is showing unusual behavior that I have only experienced in my wildest dreams and never thought would become a reality. Is it because she has her senses now and is too eager to experience everything? "Athena, what's going on with you?" I placed the back of my hand over her forehead to check if she had a fever or was sick. "You've been acting weird lately," I said worriedly. "I want you to teach me how to make love," she said, looking at me with her puppy dog's eyes. "It's not that simple," I quickly replied. "Why did you do it with her and not with me?" Lilith was the one she was referring to. I can't believe that up until now, she hasn't moved on since Lilith revealed that something happened between us. She's been acting like a jealous girlfriend. I feigned not to understand what she was saying and questioned her presence in front of my room in the middle of the night. "I have no idea what you're talking about," I
The Last Dict Standing Chapter 26: Forbidden Love
Junior's POV:I still can't believe I slept on the couch last night. Athena was sound asleep in my bed, so I didn't bother waking her up and let her sleep for the night. I couldn't sleep, no matter how hard I tried. Aside from the fact that sleeping on the couch is uncomfortable for me, I can't stop thinking about the consequences of my actions.What would become of me and Athena as a result of all of this?Can we simply pretend nothing occurred and go back to normal?My mind is filled with questions. All I know is that nobody must know that Athena has regained her senses. Our adversaries will take advantage of this information once they learn that her humanity has returned. I didn't realize that I had fallen asleep due to exhaustion and overthinking. I was awakened by the loud ringing of the phone.I opened my eyes and looked at the time; it was already past ten in the morning. I picked up the phone and answered it."Speak," I whispered hoarsely."Junior, are you still sleeping? Did
The Last Dict Standing Chapter 27: Spill the tea
Junior's POV:"Junior, what took you so long? I've been waiting for an hour here," Tiny exclaimed angrily upon my arrival at the interrogation facility."I passed by Red's laboratory, and we discussed some pressing issues. Anyway, I will be needing you for a few days since Athena will be staying with Red." I addressed him authoritatively and ignored his whining.As my uncle Stephen used to tell me, I should never apologize to anyone since I am the future ruler of El Latro and I can do whatever I want with my time."What happened? Is she sick or something?" Tiny's temperament has changed, and he has voiced concern about Athena."Nah, Red needs to run some tests on her to ensure that all of her vitals are still fine after the incident on our last mission. It's standard operating procedure. All bodyguards should be at full strength and capability to perform their duties," I explained thoroughly, rubbing his shoulder.I don't want him to speculate that something is wrong with Athena as mu
The Last Dict Standing Chapter 28: Untamed Emotions
Junior's POV:It's been three days since I left Athena in the care of the Red, and it's been awfully quiet around the house. I used to get upset when she woke me up early in the morning, but now I kind of miss having someone greet me. I missed her home-cooked dinners and the way she followed me around all the time. It is terribly lonely and feels so empty without her.I keep myself busy at work, ensuring everything is prepared and organized for our forthcoming expedition. With Tiny's help, we assembled a group of Cerberus soldiers to accompany me and Athena on our mission in the Fifth District.Despite my best efforts to keep myself preoccupied and divert my attention away from Athena, I still can't stop thinking about her. As much as I wanted to visit her in Red's facility, I couldn't. I was instructed not to visit to prevent her from getting distracted while going through intensive tests."Damn, Junior. Pull yourself together!" I said to myself, "Stop thinking about her. She's your
The Last Dict Standing Prologue
Life is short, and I always believed that we should enjoy our lives to the fullest. That's what I've been doing for the past twenty-five years of my existence. As the only child of the owner of the DICTator Group of Companies, I have the luxury of doing and getting literally whatever I want."Junior, I thought you'd never come." Milo greeted me with a wide smile on his face.Milo is one of my closest friends in Bendoveh Island's Sixth District. He is the only bartender who does not consume alcohol. He's been clean for nearly three years. We grew up together and have been looking out for each other ever since. I've been going to the 69ers Club every night, and Milo has been my spotter and wingman when it comes to women."You know me. I always want to make an entrance." I smiled back at him. Yes, I'm a sucker for attention, and I like it when all eyes are on me when I walk into the club. "Please give me the usual," I said, referring to my usual poison, snakebite.Snakebite drinks are ra
The Last Dict Standing Chapter 1: Bedroom Warfare
My father always taught me to never fight with a woman. Well, it depends on the situation. If it is in bed and at least not without her consent. I desperately wanted to get out of the room and run for my life, but she was blocking the exit door. Kitty was able to retrieve the knife that had slipped on the floor. Now that she's armed, I have nothing to protect myself with. I looked around to find something for defense, but all I could see were the wooden anchors hung on the walls, a bunch of flags, and a treasure chest.I tried to get near the treasure chest, hoping to get something out of it, but she chased me away from it. We've been running around in circles, completely naked."Damnit, I always fantasize about this moment where I run around naked being chased by girls, not to kill me but to make love to me. This is utterly insane!" I thought to myself. I hurled all the pillows at her, hoping to distract her from chasing after me. Luckily, she trips on the blanket while running afte
