Novel & Cerita Hornblower: The Duchess And The Devil

“What’s the Duchess going to do about that? Have you met them? It’s a tiny outfit, I don’t know why my brother ever bothered.” Rogue laughed, and hard. “Blaze… where do you think I get my guns from? Trust me, the Valkyrie are dangerous. The Duchess is incredibly good at what she does, and her second is… well. I lost five guys to Karma years ago before the Duchess and I hashed out a treaty. Fuck her over, and she’ll take over your little club. I’ve seen her do it before.” “She doesn’t have the manpower to do that.” “If that’s what you believe, Blaze, you’ll come to regret that. There’s a reason I have a very conclusive peace treaty with her.”

“Well I've never seen beauty quite like that. The deal is yours, Diavolo. I'll even add an extra five hundred million dollars for it to become a billion dollar deal.” “Whats the catch?” “I want the girl.” My stomach flipped as I saw the devil cosplayer rise to his feet. He said something I wasn't fast enough to catch, but on closer inspection, I realized he was talking into the plug he had on. The curtain began to close. I was helped out of the glass. Before I could blink, everyone backstage had disappeared. I heard footsteps behind me and on turning, I saw the devil. “Well played.’’ He clapped. “You can’t sell me!’’ I blurted in panic.

He would likely just brush it off and go silent. “Duchess used to be our fuck doll,” he said plainly, exhaling smoke. “A while back.” I waited for more. He continued. “She got too ambitious. Started thinking she could handle more than us. She requested someone… who doesn't know what control is and requested fr Baron. She underestimated Baron.” Silas’s lips curved slightly. “He fücked her so hard she couldn’t walk or speak properly for days.” That explained why she flinched every time she saw Baron.

The devil spoke with a mocking tone, "My beautiful visitors, I think you were dying to see me. Now I’m here, but I was in the middle of something. I suppose I’ll have to finish it in front of you." With that, the devil lifted the barely conscious woman, preparing to deliver a fatal blow. Zack sprang into action, using all the strength he could muster to punch the devil. At the same time, Petra threw a knife-like device at the devil’s arm. This device, crafted by the Angels of the Burning Sun’s science tech team, had the power to break bones in ordinary humans. However, it only managed to scratch the devil slightly, though it was enough to make him release the woman.

Duke Verdens said the report very calmly . " Good good tell me more . What's the next plan ?" Xavier can't contain his vile smile anymore . "We are going to attack the duchy as we planned before , the Duchess Battenburg is the main target this time . " duke Verdens replied as he started organizing the scattered documents . "Then are you going to kill that witch !" Xavier was now getting more and more excited . "No your highness ." Duke Verdens said calmly . "What ? Why ? Kill her now , it's the perfect time !" Xavier stood up angrily .

The wrecking sound of a gunshot blasts through the wooden, then the gun repeats its movement and then, another shot. It takes five seconds for the gun to reload before another blast. Sebastian quickly shoves the old man off his feet, pulling the shot gun from his hand. The man shoves him hastily pushes him, jamming his head on Sebastian's nose while he staggers. He pulls a dagger and aims towards Sebastian. “Mr. Drexler, I just want to talk.” Sebastian takes cautious steps back but Mr. Drexler has no thoughts of backing down. He pulls the pistol from his gear, “Mr. Drexler, I just want to talk.”

The Duke’s empire was on the brink of destruction, and now, it seemed like Isabella was the one to bring it all crashing down. Isabella took a step back, giving the Duke a mock curtsy. “You were never meant to be the victor, you know,” she taunted. “I always knew I would win.” The Duke’s face was hard as stone, his expression unreadable, but his eyes… his eyes burned with something dark and dangerous. Victoria could see it—he wasn’t just furious; he was consumed by a need for revenge, a hunger for something far more powerful than what Isabella had taken from him.

Just a simple touch from Jarek gets my libido working overtime. If I didn't know any better, I'd swear he was some kind of witch—someone with power, someone who could bend me to his will. But then again, isn't that the Devil's domain? Yes… I believe it is. And after all these years, I no longer have any doubt—Jarek Falcon isn't just dangerous. He is the Devil himself.

The assailant, relentless in his pursuit, lunged with a desperation that mirrored the unraveling threads of our carefully woven plan. The commotion reached Russo and Romero like a desperate plea. They sprinted towards the scene, their figures emerging from the darkness like guardians summoned by the tumultuous symphony of danger. Russo, his eyes wide with panic, leaped into action. The clash between him and the assailant was a chaotic blur, a dance of survival that unfolded in the shadows. It was a battle not just against the man with the knife but against the unforeseen complications that had unraveled our meticulously crafted plan.

“Which makes you dangerous. Really, the women of our family are no slouches.” Lisbeth took one step forward, hand subtly drifting to her belt where her gun waited. Eleanor raised her hands slowly. “Shoot me if you want. But we both know I have enough chips on the game that would mess up your plan if you do.” Lisbeth’s jaw clenched. The two women stood there in the dark, engines cooling, heat rising from twisted metal. And the storm rolled ever closer.
