"We were once together. A long time ago. That was before I got a job at his brother's company. Things were pretty normal back then. He was normal. We had dreams together. Aspirations.. when our world collided, it was like we were invincible," Lena stopped while drinking from the cup of calming tea that the servant had made for her.Lecter sat down on the couch opposite to hers and standing besides him was Alaric who also listened carefully to all that was being said."Well, that was until he started to have selfish dreams that no longer involved me. He once shared with me a thought, that someday, as the black sheep of the family, he would return to claim all the wealth that his family never offered to him. I saw that as a moment of silly thoughts. Except, I was wrong." She stopped and sighed."After we broke up, I moved to the city and coincidentally, got a job at his brother's company. While we were dating, he never mentioned the name of the company, not even once. So it got to a poi

The doorbell to Zhang's mansion rang and the security man by the gate rushed to see who it was. When the man saw the black SUV at the gate, he frowned."State your business," the security man said to Kevin who was driving. At the back of the car was Lecter and Alaric, and sitting with Kevin at the front of the car was Bone."We're here to see the boss. Zhang. Let us pass," Kevin said to the security man who instantly composed himself on seeing Kevin."Oh, it's you? You should have told me the moment you got here. I was beginning to employ protocols on you," the security man joked."Admit it, you've always wanted to do that," Kevin said to him. Then, the security man gazed at the rest of the persons inside the car with a frown."I've never seen them before though," he said to Kevin."They are with me and they're important guests of the boss. Do you wish to keep me waiting here?" Kevin questioned."I just have to follow protocols. The boss said he's not in the mood for guests. That is w

"I need to see you. When can we meet?" Kevin said to Mike over the phone. Mike chuckled as he received the call, a tone of amusement in his voice."Kevin. I never thought that I'd hear from you again. I saw what happened with your boss, Zhang. Where are you?" He asked Kevin who sighed."I'm currently somewhere in Lecter James' mansion. He thinks that he can trust me. I even believe that he has recruited me as one of his men," Kevin said to Mike who gasped with excitement. Mike quickly got up from the chair he was sitting on and started pacing around."You found your way into Lecter James house? How did you do it?" He questioned."In case you haven't noticed, I'm a very good assassin sir. Yes, I had to sacrifice Zhang to get this far, but it is totally worth it," Kevin responded."Sacrifice Zhang how? Don't tell me you led Lecter James to his House?" Mike exclaimed."I was made! It was the only way to ensure that the plan continues. We still want to kill Lecter James, right?" Kevin ask

"What the fuck is your problem? Are you blind or something?" Venita yelled at Rex as she quickly stepped down from the car. Her eyes were fiery, like she had just had a terrible night and Rex was adding to the troubles. Rex just stood at the side of the road and watched her."Are you deaf? What the fuck is your problem?" She yelled again and walked up to him. "Do you have a death wish or something?" She added. Rex still stood on the spot, breathing heavily."Can I borrow your car?" He suddenly asked her. Venita gasped at the audacity and proceeded to raise her hand to slap him. But then, a bullet flew past her and she gasped.Venita turned around and saw a Dagger running towards them, aiming for the car. Rex quickly grabbed the keys from her hand and jumped into the car."Get in!" He yelled at her and she rushed inside as the bullets kept hitting the car. Then, Rex zoomed off before the final bullet shattered the rear mirror."What the heck is going on? Who are you?" Venita asked but

A week later, Rex managed to find the courage to step out of his hiding place. He was extremely cautious despite the fact that the resort had provided a security detail for him."Why don't you stay inside for more days? It's your company and you won't lose it," Venita had told him that morning while he snuggled out of the bed. Within the space of meeting in a week, they had already begun a relationshipVenita saw him as a profitable endeavor, a way to get back at Lecter for humiliating her all over again and a way to land herself some serious cash. Thorn Incorporated was in shambles and they had been too quiet."No one from my company has called me for a week now. I want to know what's happening over there," he said to Venita and got ready.The car soon pulled up in front of Rex Incorporated. Rex dropped from the car, wearing a scowl on his face. He took his ihune and a briefcase while he approached the door.But on getting to the door, the security men stopped him."What is the meani
