True Villain Novels & Stories

"Let's see what we're doing for today." I clicked a folder on my computer. Employment process and staff checks. The main goal is to fish out Thor's pawns and eliminate them. But how will I know when he always makes sure to avoid suspicion? I twirled on my chair as if it'll make my thought process faster, it did. I stopped and opened a new page on the computer, typed in childhood. Thor doesn't recruit loyal people, he recruits people he has something against. People with something to lose, people like me.

“Just keep an eye on him.” It might not be a smart idea but Hank just lost his brother and sister-in-law. He is thirsting for vengeance and I can tell. I hear him approach and he hands me a small vial. Veritas isn’t a truth serum but one which lowers the inhibitions of the drinker, enough for them to spill secrets. Aliya produced some for me as whim and I’ve kept the few vials just in case we ever need them. I open the cork and grabbing the man’s jaw, I force the beautiful golden coloured liquid down his throat. He tries to spit it out but I clamp my hand over his mouth, preventing him from doing so.

The burning photographs extinguish, plunging us into darkness again except for the eerie glow now emanating from Truth's skin. "Detective Rodriguez," Truth says, voice lilting with amusement, "always so procedural. So by-the-book. Even when the book has been rewritten." Rodriguez stiffens. "How do you know my name?" "I know everything about all of you," Truth continues. "Victoria's jealousy. James's greed. Marcus's guilt. Catherine's secrets." Those uncanny eyes shift to me. "And Sophia's... special genetic makeup." My blood freezes in my veins. "What are you talking about?"

"You said you were going to my house to drop something off last time I went out, but when I came home, I found one condom missing. My wife refused to admit it and said I remembered wrong. I even started doubting myself. Tell me. Was it you?" Randy knocked the man's hand away, then looked at me viciously. "You want to convict me with one video? I wasn't the one who started it in that video. Your wife was the one who threw herself into my arms. Couldn't you see that? Or are you just too scared to admit that your wife cheated on you? Too scared to admit you lost to me?"

“The bastard pulled it off… The Syndicate is kaput. Volkov is dead or dying.” I stared at him, the words sinking in slowly, like ice water seeping into my veins. “Wait… What? How?” Talon shrugged, his grip tightening slightly on my hand. “Best I can figure, Viktor’s some sort of superhuman. And I’m super glad we’re on his good side.”

"I'm just telling the truth. Mister Tianco made it possible for us to meet. He offered this deal and not me. Just think that this is the end of your greed, Signor Eldifonso. The world is spinning around, the days are not always in your favor." He suddenly pulled my arm so I winced at the pain. He brought me closer to him and looked at me evilly. "I repeat, I am not an easy enemy, Valerie Wills. Remember that I put you through the hellish life you have enjoyed at the hands of my fake grandson!"

VR answered truthfully and Orni couldn't describe how shocked is she right now. Orni murmured going backwards," Gang Leader!!" " Angel, don't be scared. I won't do anything to you," VR assured holding her shoulder gently. Orni pushed away his hands and screamed at the top of her lungs," Your murderer! Don't touch me. I was a fool to love a person like you! I loved a murderer and liar! You told me that you are a businessman but in reality, you are a gangster. You are a criminal." Saying all these Orni started crying when VR warned her," Watch your words angel."

“Good.” He studied me for a long second. “What if he’s not the villain in this story?” I flinched. He noticed. Goddamn him. “I don’t have time for doubts, Victor.” He lowered the tablet. “I know. But you might want to make time for the truth.” The truth. I hated that word. Because deep down, the truth wasn’t that I wanted to destroy Thiago. It was that I didn’t know if I could.

Even if Terrin was a spy for the High Council, she wouldn’t let it draw their attention from the real enemy at hand. “Enough!” She didn’t know why, but there were tears in her eyes. “The true villain isn’t among us, it’s out there, waiting for us to slip up, and right now, we’re basically opening the door and inviting it in! I can’t, I won’t let that happen. Whatever fate awaits me when they arrive, I will face it. It can’t be worse than what I’ve faced already. And it definitely couldn’t be worse than seeing those I care about throw their morals to the wind for my sake.” “Tasha,” Cal finally looked at her, but his jaw was set and she knew he was about to try
