Chapter 96
It was as if I had stiffened in my stance. My hands, clinging to the guns, also weakened slightly. Shit, I can’t be wrong. That voice was with him.
I slowly lowered my two guns and immediately faced my back. I saw Ivan there looking at Kristine without emotion and … his gun was pointed at me.
I swallowed and folded my arms. I never thought the time would come when we would face each other in a battle like this. But I would still be surprised, wouldn’t I? How many times has he fooled me before e.
“Look who’s here. It’s you, Dos.” I can’t even admit it but despite the coldness of my voice there was still a chisel there.
His eyes shifted to me. It screams cold as if you could turn to ice in an instant.
“Ms. Steinfields, let’s meet again …” she gave me a meaningful smile.
I nodded and smiled sparingly at him. “Yes. And here it was at an unexpected time …” I said.
My hands trembled slightly. Am I really the only one or did I see his expression sad?
Tsk! Why do you think that, Andrea? Of course the expression on his face wasn’t like that! He was Dos!
“Shall I kill him, Dos?” I heard Kristine say so I turned to her. He just stared at me and raised an eyebrow at Ivan.
Ivan remained folded. He shrugged before speaking. “Don’t. Don’t we still have a surprise with him?” he lowered the gun that had previously been pointed at me.
‘tsk! I’m going to kill him! Isn’t it really possible?” Kristine asked irritably.
Ivan sighed. “Just really try, Kristine. Uno won’t like you even more when you’re like that. That idiot might even kill you if you do that.” Ivan yawned and turned his gaze to Kristine.
I wonder what’s their surprise for me that they’re talking about. Tsk, Uno really loves games. When we were kids, he used to love playing with each other.
It”s just really true that I didn’t love him. He was too bad for me. I can’t bear to live with someone like him. He was more of an animal than an animal. He was more of a demon than a demon.
“Oh, they’re here …” Ivan said smiling as he looked behind me.
I didn’t look behind me even though I wanted to. It’s like … it’s like I suddenly felt scared.
“Damn, I’m already sweating because of this mock battle. It’s okay and it’s over.” I heard a familiar voice say so my eyes widened.
“You’re right, sis. You’re also tiring like this. I hope we don’t just go together.” said another.
I slowly turned to face my back. My lips parted when I saw who they were. Damn it …
“In … Sapphire? Diamond?” I almost whispered a promise.
From the encounter with Kristine they turned to me. They looked at me with a smile and at the same time pointed a gun at me.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“I’m sorry, Ms. Steinfields. We’re members of Dark Alpha and we’re just spies in your group …” Diamond said with a smile.
I was swallowed. My grip tightened on my two guns. I just stared at them. They were animals.
“I’m sorry. You need to sleep first.” I heard Ivan say behind me. I was about to face him when a hard object hit my neck.
I grinned and … black forces gradually took over my vision.
Damn it, they betrayed me all. And it’s disappointing because I didn’t even notice it right away …
Rigella’s POV
I slowly opened my eyes the moment I heard a loud, shouting voice. I held my breath when I felt pain in my neck, and all over my body. Shit, it hurts! I winced a little and tried to open my eyes almost completely.
“Let me go! You bastard! You’re so shameless, Creed! You’re a traitor!” I heard a familiar voice shout.
Chasing my breath I moved my body but I failed. I feel like I”m bound. Even my hands and feet I could not move. Maybe both were bound as well. Damn it!
When I finally opened my eyes I looked up. My eyes first saw Amethyst being forcibly tied by some men. He was just next to me so I could clearly see what was happening to him. He was struggling but I also noticed his weakness.
I bit my lower lip but I immediately repented. Damn. Maybe they beat me while I was unconscious so my whole body was in so much pain. Even my lip feels like it’s bleeding now.
“A … Amethyst …” I almost whispered but enough for him to hear.
He had just finished tying up when he turned to me. His eyes widened as he watched my whole being. Shit, I don’t know what I look like right now. What did they do to me?
“Jusko …” Amethyst’s lips trembled when she said that word. ‘they were animals. They have no mercy …” he whispered and tears rolled down his cheeks as he looked at me.
I closed my eyes emphatically. I only feel more pain in the part of my shoulder that was hit by a bullet earlier. It was as if life were on fire because of the pain of my whole body.
I woke up and smiled at Amethyst. I can handle it, it’s not even at the fingertips of the pain I experienced before so I can handle it. I will try to cope. This was for my family. I will not give up lightly.
“were you okay? Did they do something to you?” I could no longer speak properly but I still forced myself.
He shook slowly and I saw tears dripping from his eyes. “I’m fine, Ate. You’re not okay. I’m sorry, I didn’t help you right away. I thought Creed would help me. That’s why he’ll just betray me …”
I smiled at him again. She called me Ate, just like the old times. “You don’t need to be sorry, Amethyst. It’s my fault. I wasn’t careful. I trusted them too much …” I calmly promised.
“But it’s my job to protect you. I’m your ace …” the sadness in his voice was obvious.
I took a deep breath. “You just did what I told you to do, Amethyst. I just told you to bring my children and Darlyn’s child in a safe place. You followed that and that’s fine with me. I’m relieved now because I know they’re safe.” I said again.
“But still, I’m sorry. You’ve already perished because of me …”
I barely laughed. She’s still the importunate Marilyn. He still hasn’t changed. “I said, you don’t need to be sorry. It’s okay. And one more thing I’m just fine. I can withstand this. I’ve experienced situations like this and others were even worse here. I can do it . ” I made a determined promise and then smiled at him again.
Amethyst stared at me for a moment and averted her gaze. As I bent down and looked at the belt that had been attached to me earlier. That’s gone. They might have removed it earlier because I might have escaped. Great.
I sighed and just leaned back in the chair. I don’t know what will happen to me. It’s either they will torture me first before killing me or they will just kill me right away. Those were the only two possibilities I know of.
My whole body was bruised. I kept wondering if I could still stand in case I wasn’t tied up at these times. But I don’t feel any fractures in my body so maybe I can still stand.
This isn’t my first time to feel bruised. When Ivan and I were still at home, he started beating me, so this feeling was not new to me. As well as the training that Ate did for me. It’s even worse here because I’m about to kill you. Ate was too strong.
I slightly rotate my head to relax that. My neck was still a bit sore but I was able to endure the pain. I’m used to being hurt emotionally and physically so I’m fine now. I still can.
