Lecter's phone rang during the dead of night. He took his eyes off the computer that he was working on and saw the no called ID. Lecter hesitated before he picked up the phone"Lecter James. I can see that you have successfully put tension in my family. Trying to set my best fighters against me. How dare you!" Ivan groaned on the other side of the phone.Lecter scoffed."Ivan. How dare you?" Lecter asked him."I should be asking you that question. Did you really think that you could turn my soldiers against me? Did you think that their loyalty is as fickle as that? Well, let me tell you, it's not. Umar did not betray me. He already knows everything and he is still here by my side," he bragged to Lecter with a scowl on his Face. Lecter smiled."Well, I already knew that. When he came to me with Kelly, I knew he was an ant. So, I decided to do what anyone else would do. Step on the ant. And that has led you to me. I was hoping that you all would kill each other during the confrontation,
Bruce was sorting through some paperwork in the station when his phone rang. He checked the caller ID but it was an unknown caller. Bruce was skeptical about picking up the phone. It might still be Kelly calling him.Ever since she left, the station has been somewhat uncomfortable for him. She had turned in her resignation letter and left immediately after she confirmed Ivan's death. Bruce was then meant to close the case which he concluded to be an unfortunate accident. The explosion was accredited to a gas explosion and everything else went as it should."Hello?" Bruce asked as he picked up the phone."Detective Bruce. This is officer Joel from the city's correctional center. I'm calling in respect of a prisoner you sent here some time ago. Joe Thorn," a man said over the phone.Bruce was curious to know what was going on."What has happened to Joe?" He asked."Well, I don't know a better way to say this, but Joe Thorn has disappeared from prison," the man stated. Bruce, puzzled by
**A few hours earlier**Joe was sitting in his cell, gazing at the roof top while thinking about the terrible things he had had to endure in prison. He was constantly made fun of and bullied by other inmates. It was a funny thing for Joe considering how he used to think that he was invincible.But the previous night, Joe had had enough. His cell made who was a much larger man had tried to bully him again with his gang. Joe stood up to them, and wounded his cell mate so severely that the cell mate was sent to the infirmary. However, Joe knew that trouble still lurked in the shadows. The cell mate would come for him soon."Hello, Joe," a voice suddenly called out to Joe and he jumped up from his bed. Standing by the bars was a much older man with a wicked smile on his faceJoe was puzzled. He didn't hear the bars rattle."Who are you? How did you get in here?" Joe asked him. The man let out a smile and sighed."It's a shitty place, isn't it? Prison is not meant for the likes of you. Yo
"Is he giving you trouble?" The voice asked and Joe Turned his head to the side.Standing there was a young lady with beautiful long legs and a fierce smile. She wore a pretty black dress, and had a briefcase in her hand. The lady smiled again as she approached Murray."Joe, this is my daughter Carina." Murray introduced her. But Joe was too stunned by her beauty to even reply."Hello, Joe. My father has told me so much about you. He says you are the perfect candidate for The job and looking at you now, I think I'm begining to understand why," she said to him."Pardon me, miss Carina but I am about to take a job that I know nothing if it's details. It's shady if you ask me. You know, before all of this happened, I used to have good instincts and now my instincts are…""What are your instincts telling you?" She cut in. Joe was silent for a moment while he gazed deeply at her."My instincts tell me that I cannot trust you both," he replied to them. Carina laughed and took her seat."Hav
Lecter walked into his office and he was met with warm smiles from his workers as they sang Happy birthday for him. He smiled while he walked into his office appreciating them for the gesture. His secretary soon followed with a package in her hand " Happy birthday sir. You have a delivery," she said to him and Lecter was surprised. "A delivery? What is it?" He asked her. "I don't know sir. But I think it's a briefcase," she replied and then placed the package on the table. The she smiled at Lecter and stepped out of the office. Lecter received a ping in his phone. It was a text from Anna saying they were going out later. He smiled while he opened the package and indeed, it was a briefcase. Lecter then opened the briefcase and found a single note inside with a number written on it. "Call me," Lecter read out the instruction on the note. Then he proceeded to dial the number out of curiosity. Perhaps it was Anna getting creative. The number rang and then someone picked up almost
"He did what? Who the fuck does he think he is? Boss, give me permission to find that mother fucker and deal with him!" Kevin fumed."It's alright Kevin. I have a feeling that you won't find anything on him anyway. June, did my mother never mention anything about the other guardians ever to you or the organization?" Lecter asked her."Your mother was especially against us asking ques about the guardians. If it wasn't necessary for her to tell us about where she got the ring, I'm sure she never would have mentioned the term. I don't think your mother parted with the guardians on a good note. Maybe that's why she was always against us trying to dig into her past," June added. Lecter sighed."Well, if I have an enemy at my door, I have to go into that past and dig it," Lecter voiced out. A dead silence fell on the place as Lecter kept thinking. He wondered if the ring could assist him in getting what he wanted.But then his phone rang and it was an unknown number. Lecter hung up the call
It was towards that evening when Reagan drove back to his apartment. It was quite drive and for someone who lived alone, he didn't have much. Reagan's wife had divorced him years ago because splitting from the guardians had given him a drinking problem. They never had kids and so, most time Reagan was left alone with his thoughts.He parked the car and stepped down from it. Although he was alone, he had servants that assisted him with the things he needs. "Sir, there is someone waiting for you inside," a servant said as she walked up to him. Regan was surprised."Who is it?" Reagan asked. The servant sighed and gazed into Reagan's eyes."I think it's your ex-wife sir. It seems like she's back," the servant responded. Reagan's eyes beamed with curiosity as he dashed inside.He could not believe what the servant just said. Perhaps there was a mistake somewhere. Or perhaps it was all a trick. It had to be. But deep down, Reagan wished that it was true. His beautiful wife didn't have to
Venita quickly grabbed her car keys and tried to step out of the house. She had a contract briefing that she thought could help Thorn Incorporated thrive and she could not afford to let it slide. Morris her father was overseas for some business regarding Thorn Incorporated as well and so she had to be in charge of managing the business all by herself."Fuck!" She groaned while she headed outBut remembered that she had forgotten her phone inside. Venita rushed back into her room, grabbed the phone and stepped down. But then, she saw someone that made her shudder and break while the phone dropped from her hand and shattered."Joe?" Venita muttered in shock."Hello, dear sister. Miss me?" Joe asked with a smile.

Joe cut her off and laughed. He clicked his tongue and sighed, while making himself comfortab
