PROLOGUE

The darkness has now finally covered the sunset. The darkness wins against the Sun now. Of course, this time will come. There's a time that the Sun will beat the Darkness and on this point of time, Darkness beat the Sun. 

I ran while my heart is beating erratically, the beat of my heart is like a thunderbolt ranging the whole place. I did not stop from running until I saw the place where I could hide. 

I hide inside of a small compartment in this ship. The smokes are covering the whole place and the loud shots of guns didn't stop even earlier. It all started maybe a half hours ago and until now, it's not yet done. 

"Ah!" I shouted in shocked. I saw dead peoples on my way. Actually, there's a lot of dead people in any way of this hallway. Fear and worries consumed me thinking that I may not survived and the most precious person in my life. 

The chances of being alive after this battle is just a two or less percent. This is a war against mafia organizations. And unfortunately, I'm part of it. Not that I'm part of the mafias but my husband is! 

"Hide in anywhere you'll be safe. We have plan B and C. I will find you no matter what it takes. Just hide and protect yourself in any way. If you have to kill someone don't you dare have a second thought. It's either you will kill them or the other way around. Promise me," my husband said in a serious yet the shaking of his voice is really visible. He's holding my right hand and his other hand is on my elbow. His eyes were scared, he's scared that something might happen to me. 

He can win all the battles and war that he has to face. But, he can't now. He cannot focus if he'll keep on thinking my safety while doing his mission and protect himself. I have to assure him! I have to assure him that I'll be fine no matter what happen. My husband won't fail me. He will never do it. I blew out a deep breath and nod my head. Assuring him that I'll do everything just to keep me safe and alive. 

"Focus on this one. I'll be safe. Find me after this, I'll wait," I said in a shaky voice. 

My husband's anger and fear can't be erased on his face. He's mad because a lot of intruders came just to kill the uppers, and he is one of the uppers. It's a well planned step. But, my husband is more smart and speedster. He can smash them down in just a snap. I know he can. 

He nodded and put his warm lips on my forehead before going but before he can go, I stopped him. His furious and dangerous yet sweet face showed up in me. 

"No blood of yours, please." 

"Take care of yourself," he said and kiss me again before get he going. 

I was about to open the compartment when a gun shot strikes again. But, not for anybody. The gun shots were for me! 

"Ah! Shit!" I hissed. I scan the place and search if I could use something to protect me. The gun that Ezekiel Duke gave me where out of bullets. I shot more than five men only to protect me. If I didn't do what I did, maybe I'm already a lifeless now. 

I saw a gun near the dead man not so far away from me so I ran and get that. I pulled that trigger and the man who's chasing me got a bull's eye. I was a well trained by my husband, idiots! You can't harm nor even kill me! I promised him! I promised, Ezekiel Duke that I'll be safe at all cost. That I will protect my self at all cost while he's busy from stopping this and so we can run and go out of this ship. 

I have a feeling that in just an hour or minutes, this ship will be bombarded. And, Ezekiel Duke is now doing the second plan. I just have to wait and stay safe. 

I thought I am already safe but I was wrong, very much wrong. So shit! A dozen of men was chasing me and because of the smokes they can't see me properly. I positioned my gun and let a six shots, the six men got a bull's eye. And I let another shots. Shots after shots. Kill them or they'll kill you. That's what my husband told me. In this sort of world, I have to vixen. Forget the innocent me. 

I was about to run of that place when a muscular arm stopped me. I can sense that he will gonna punch me using his gun, but before he could do that. I did my self defense. When I had the chance to let go of him, I faced him with a vixen and strong woman's expression. I gave him a partner punch and kicks. He's trying to do the same thing but I avoid each of his attacks. 

"Trust me that You're dead after this!" I proudly said. If this man will pursue on harming me, I'm sure he'll be dead. No one can slip on my husband's hand. 

"You're really a bitch... Just like your husband!" he shouted. I kick his balls and get his gun in a very fast movement. In just a snap, here I am... Pointing a gun on someone's forehead. I never imagined myself being like this since then. But, my fate came to me and I decided to embraced my fate the way I embraced my husband and his identity. 

"I am not a bitch, you dumbass!" I shouted back and shot him on his left leg. "And secondly, my husband is not a bitch! Are you insane or just really dumb?!" I shot his right leg. 

"Argh!" he screamed in excruciating pain. Killing this guy in just a snap has no excitement, I'll let him taste the pain before ending him. 

Gosh, Crizette! I never really imagine you being like this! 

"Serves you right!" I shot him on his left arm making him scream in more excruciating pain. 

"You'll die! You and your husband will die soon! Just wait a little more longer! The San Diegos are doing their way! -" I didn't let him finish when the anger eaten me wholly. That Name! 

I shot him directly on his head and blew out a deep breath. Seriously?! 

I was about to walk away when a gun pointed on the back of my head stopped him. One wrong move, and I'll die. I sighed before turning my back to face the person who's pointing his gun on me mercilessly. 

My anger build up on my system even more! This guy does really have the guts to point a gun on me, huh? Let me give you what you deserve! 

"I never imagined you being this merciless and so vixen, my little sister." 

"Sister your face," I said in a damn voice. He let out a boring and annoying chuckles. 

"You, you," he stopped and laugh so bad. Go on, laugh and laugh... This maybe your last laugh, dear brother. "You're pathetic!" he shouted and pointed his gun directly on my forehead. His expression becomes more lion that's ready to roar. "We sympathized you! We took care of you but you will chose that bastard-" I cut him off, I don't have much time for his drama and all that he wants to point. 

Sympathized, is he kidding me? They didn't even take care of me. How could this man say those nonsense words? The guts, huh. 

I did my best to get his gun but he's just sort of a well trained fighter. Well, my husband taught me a lot about this. So, I think I can handle this with no fuss. 

"You'll regret everything you did, Crizette. I promise, You'll regret it!" he shouted and pushed me with all his force. I sat down and I can't deny the excruciating pain because of that.

"Always remember, in every fight... Chose to lose all your energy than to lose at all," I suddenly remembered what my husband told me before. It's much better to fight and win until I lose all the energy I have than to lose everything on this fight. 

I stand up quickly before he can even beat me up to death. I fought hard, whenever he tries to kick me I will avoid it and I used some tricks that I learned from my husband. When I had the chance to throw him the huge vase design in this hallway, dozen of men came. His men. It's now or never. I threw the vase on him and it cracked on his head, making him unconscious. 

The men pointed their guns on me ready to pull the gag and kill me ruthlessly. I shook my head in stress. Seriously? How many people is chasing me? Am I that important to them? Is killing me so important? 

I don't know why I still ask that when I already know the answer. Yes, most of my husband competitor wants to kill me because on that... They'll have the chance to pull and drag Ezekiel Duke down. He once told me that I'm his weakness. Well, he's also my weakness. I can't also live a happy life if I'll lose him. I might lose myself too. 

I blew a deep breath and let go of my gun. 

"What do you want?" I said coldly and  emotionless. 

"Come with us," the leader of this group, maybe. 

Before I could step my feet gun shots after gun shots. I don't know where it came from but all the men surrounds me got killed. Is that another intruder who wants to get and kill me? 

Omy gosh! 

I was about to run and hide when a familiar manly voice filled the hallway making me feel relieved, thanks god! 

"Mrs. Wolkzbin!" it's one of my husband's men. I stopped and the all covered me. As if someone will shot me. 

"My apology, we're late to come and protect you, Mrs. Wolkzbin. We have to go now!" he said and we walked away from this place. We're about to transfer to our Ship, my husband's ship is already ready to rescue me and the other men. 

"Where's Ezekiel Duke?" I asked Pietro, my own personal butler. He touched his connection to the other men, the thing on his ear. 

"We are with Mrs. Wolkzbin now, she's asking where is Mr. Wolkzbin," He nodded as if he's talking to the person on the other line personally. He looked at me with no emotions. 

"He will follow us. For now, we have to go first. It's for your own safety. Mr. Wolkzbin wants your safety," he explained. I nod my head and was abiut to walk towards our ship when a bunch of men with a familiar Old Man with his bitchy daughter appeared. 

My bodyguards positioned themselves, also their bodyguards. They're now pointing their own guns to each other. While, Pietro stand in front of me to cover me if one of them will shot me. 

"Well, well, well," it's no ther than the bitch Rheona Muller San Diego, the only daughter of Reynamus San Diego. The man standing beside her. 

"It's nice to see you again, Crizette," she mumbled, I know she's being sarcastic. Maybe she's happy to see me because she has a wicked plan for me. But, I know she hates to see me... Well, the feeling is mutual. 

"The feeling is not mutual thou. I don't want to see you. I hate seeing you plastic face," I bitchy said making her groaned in annoyance. Reynamus, the big boss of theirs laugh nonchalantly. 

"Your bastard husband really trained you well on how to talk and move, huh? You weren't like that! He brainwashed you!" he shouted in anger but my expression didn't change. 

"He did not! You are actually the one who brainwashed me," I coldly replied making him laugh. He and his children is really getting into my nerves huh! 

"Whatever you say, Darling," he says in a menacing voice. I raised my eyebrows and rolled my eyes on her bitchy daughter. 

A loud and weird smell covered my nostrils. It can't be! My heart suddenly beats nervously, I can't help my hand to not tremble. 

Everyone of us start to panic inside but no one dared to show that we're panicking.

Where the hell is my husband now? 

I looked at Pietro and his gun is still pointing at the enemies, he glanced at me making me feel assured that everything is under control. 

"Fuck!" he old man hissed. I remained poker and decided to break the silence. 

"See you," I mumbled and signal my husband's men that we have to go and transfer, within a minute... This will explode and many will die. 

I move faster than could ever be. I gave them a small and bitter smile. Rheona just rolled her eyes on me as they move to transfer to their own ship. 

"Do you have estimations of minutes or hour before this ship will explode?" I asked Pietro and stopped for the hundredth times, another enemies. 

They're all pointing their guns on us with a poker face. 

How many people do I have to face before I could transfer to my husband's ship, yacht or whatever it is? 

"This is your end, Mrs. Wolkzbin," the guy said but Pietro just pulled the gag. 

The heat of this two group is about creat an explosion before this ship will explode. Seriously? Didn't they know that this ship will explode because there's a planted bomb here? This ship will explode and sank in no time and they're still busy trying to kill me? The heck with them! 

Irritations filled my system as I gritted my teeth. 

"More or less than thirty minutes," Pietro whispered. 

"Let's end this," I commanded and we started the fight against this group of assassins. 

I can't remember and count how many bullets came outside from my gun. I just shoot and keep on shooting every men trying to harm me or some of the part of the men protecting me. 

Someone was about to harm and kick me when A strong forearm stop it. I looked at the man who did this and a smile crept into my lips. My Knight in shing armour is here. 

"Not in my watch," he said before twisting the leg of the man and didn't had a second thought of shooting him. 

We look at each other and let out a small yet sweet smile.

"Let's finish it." 

In just a snap, we're already back to back shooting each and everyone of those douche bags. 

"We have to go now!" one of Ezekiel Duke's men. 

I looked at the man who I admire the most. We nod our head signaling that we have to go. 

My husband and I together with our followers are now transferring to our own ship when a loud and last gun shot filled the air. 

"What's that?" My husband said before scanning the place. Even his men start to scan the whole place searching where the shot goes. 

I felt a pain on the side of my tummy but still tried to stand firm and fine. I covered it using my right hand. 

Ezekiel Duke was about to held my hand when I didn't let him do it. He looked at him with a frown expression. 

"What?" he asked. I smiled and let my right hand out of my right tummy, showing the gun shot. 

I saw how my husband's eyes turn into a bloodshot. His face darkened as if ready to roar and kill anyone. 

"Calm down, hubby. I'm fine," I said as I lost my consciousness.
