Chapter 26.

Venita, Lecter's ex-wife, watched with envy and determination as highlights of Lecter's extravagant wedding flashed across the television screen. She wondered where all his money came from and how the woman he was dating made him spend it.

Jealousy and rage filled her.

“Where was all this vast amount of money he was spending when we were together? " She asked herself.

Venita knows Lecter had money, and he spent it on her back then, but not to this extent. She cheated on him, broke his heart, and then she divorced him.

The vast wealth displayed at the event was staggering, a stark reminder of the wealth and power that had eluded her grasp for so long. But as she watched, a fire ignited within her, a burning desire to seek out the man whom she had humiliated her and get him back.

"Is he still an ordinary driver? Lecter James must be paying him well," Venita said.

With the newfound plan, Venita set out on a mission to track down Lecter, determined to make him fall for

    Chapter 27 Lecter and Anna stood hand in hand at the edge of a pristine beach. The setting sun's golden rays cascaded a light glow over their beautiful bodies. They had arrived in the vibrant city of Rio de Janeiro for their honeymoon, eager to embark on a journey of love and passion in paradise. They strolled along the sandy shores, their laughter mingling with the gentle sound of the waves crashing against the shore; Lecter pulled Anna into his arms, his lips capturing hers in a searing kiss. He pulled away and pointed at the part of the beach. "That part of the beach was in the cartoon; the blue parrot was kidnapped, and he escaped somewhere around that place." “That is not a good reason to stop kissing me." She said flirtatiously and Lecter tried smiled. "I know what you want." He carried her up, lifting her from the floor. “Hey, hey, put me down now." She demanded with a cackle. “No!" Lecter refused. Lecter walked into the room, busting through everything. He closed

    Chapter 28 “Do we have to leave now?" Lecter questioned as they headed for their private jet. “Yes, we had our fun in Rio, and I loved every single second of it. But we have to go to Barcelona now so that you can have the most fun." Anna told him. “I haven't arranged anything," Lecter said to her. “Yes, we will figure something out. Come on, babe" Anna made puppy's eyes and he got into the vehicle. "Is there anything you'd like to tell me, Anna?" Lecter asked her but she rocked her head in negative. Lecter remained calm. As they prepared for lift-off, Lecter just frowned in silence, pouting about their exit from Rio de Janeiro. “ I'll let you cum inside of me in Barcelona, and we can try that thing that you always wanted." She told him. "Don't tease me with a good time..." Lecter said and Anna chuckled. It was afternoon when they arrived, and they booked a room in the best hotel they had there. Checking into the hotel, they saw some significant celebrities. “Look, i

    Chapter 29 Confusion hung thick in the air as the stakeholders of Lecter's company gathered in the boardroom, their brows furrowed with concern. A particular deal, one that had promised great potential for the company, was now causing nothing but headaches and setbacks. Despite their best efforts, they couldn't make any headway, and tensions were running high as they struggled to find a solution. Kurt, the head of the negotiations team, was directly working for Lecter, like his wingman; he stood at the head of the table, his frustration evident in every line of his face. He had poured countless hours into trying to close the deal, but every time he thought he was making progress, something would come along to derail his efforts. With a heavy sigh, Kurt addressed the room, his voice tinged with defeat. "I'm sorry, but we've hit a roadblock with this deal. No matter what we do, we can't seem to get it across the finish line. They keep asking and demanding impossible things, and I

    Chapter 30 In the well-designed space in Lecter's company boardroom, Lecter James sat at the head of the table, his expression composed and his mind razor-sharp. Beside him was Kurt, Alaric, and one of the partners from the company they are trying to seal the deal with; he listened intently as Lecter outlined and kept trying to solve the issue with the agreement. Kurt made an input in the resolution. “That's wonderful, but it all depend on what the other board members say; they saw your presentation. I'll go talk to them, and we will decide in the next thirty minutes, tops." The man said, and picked up his laptop and went out of the office to take an online meeting and make a decision. Few minutes later, the man walked into Lecter's office again. "Well, Mr James. My company has agreed that this contract is the best thing for both of us. We want to thank you for opening our eyes to see that we can both benefit from this. The wicked manager that was delaying the contract has b

    Chapter 31“Why would you let him do this to me?" Rand asked Venita. She just stared at him blankly, emotionless. She was throwing zero feelings.“It's not my fault that a real man wanted me, and his way of getting me was by getting rid of the former mate." A chuckle escaped from her lips. “You think this is funny. I have been there for you through thick and thin. Taking in all your horrible mistakes, trying to make things better for you, and this is how you pay me back." Rand's limping had stopped. The rage of anger in him seemed to remove every trace of pain that he was experiencing. That struck fear in Venita; she knew that even injured, if he were to beat her right now, she would most probably die.“I'm sorry, baby. I didn't mean to make you feel that way." Venita apologized, keeping a very safe distance from Rand. Tension hung thick in the air as Venita and Rand stood face to face, their voices raised in anger as they hurled accusations and recriminations at each other. The alt

    Chapter 32“Hey, Morris, when can I come and see you? I have got vital information for you. " The assassin said, feeling smug with himself, at least, this information would make him be on the top good safe list of Morris.“Is the information so solid that you can't tell me over the phone?" Morris asked him, impatient laced in his voice. He hissed. “Yes. Because once you get the information, you'll want to plan on it immediately, no waiting or delays." The assassin assured him of the power of the information he held.“Okay. It would be best if you came in this evening. I'll text you the particular time and moment to go in. The idea of nonsocialization is the best play for either of us here.They ended the call and resumed their lives.Morris had texted him to be in the office around five thirty and six o'clock. The assassin moves sleekly through the confines of the workers until he gets into Morris's office. In the dimly lit confines of Morris's office, the assassin stood before him,

Not only was the company in Jeopardy, the assassin got caught, and now he is scared that he would be exposed. The money he had paid him had significantly affected his finances. His phone rang. Venita's name popped up on the screen; overwhelmed by the day's events, he decided to pick up the call and vent to her.“Hello, Venita. How are you doing?" Morris asked Venita as he picked up the call.“Hi, daddy. I'm doing alright. How has your day been?" Venita's voice was laced with concern.“Honestly, today has not been the greatest of days for me. It hasn't been great at all." He shared. “Please, tell me about it." She asked. “I made sure to involve myself in a significant investment, which didn't work out for me. Also, the assassin I hired to kill your ex-husband failed. He failed woefully. " Morris shared. “Fuck. That bitch. I don't u

    Chapter 34.Morris and his colleague talked about their opportunity to kill Lecter at the event hosted at the hotel by a company trying to raise awareness.“So, you have alerted the assassin on how to do things and how to do it?" Morris asked him.“He is not a fool, Morris. You are smart, and he is a well-trained assassin, and he has been properly treated. If he fails, he will not be paid, and my guard will have him killed." The colleague said a smirk grew on his face. "The night was heavy with tension as the hired assassin lay in wait, his finger poised on the trigger as he watched Lecter James step out of his car and enter the luxurious hotel where the event was being held. This was it, the moment he had been waiting for, the chance to finally rid the world of the man who would make him earn so much money.“Steady, steady." The assassin said to himself, concentrating intensely, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. But as he took aim and prepared to fire, a sudden commotion br

We have to go now," Liana, Lecter's daughter called out from the car.Anna smiled while Lecter approached with a briefcase at hand."I can tell them to come perform for you here at the mansion, my princess," Lecter said to Liana but she rolled her eyes and pouted."It wouldn't be the same, dad. I want to watch the show with my friends too," Liana replied."Your daughter is very stubborn, Lecter James," Anna stretched forth her hand and took the briefcase from Lecter before he proceeded to kiss her lips."I wonder where she got that from," Lecter said sarcastically and Anna scoffed. They soon got into the car and zoomed off. Along the way, Lecter's phone rang. It was the president."Mr President, you honor me with your call," Lecter said."Mr James. I want to personally thank you for what you did for our country. We would have

    Rachel’s eyes widened, genuine fear finally breaking through her tough exterior. She was ready to burst into tears when Bruce turned back to her, his gun still in hand. “See what happens to those who cross me? Want to be part of them?” He asked angrily. Before Rachel could respond, the door burst open. Lecter stormed in, his presence filling the room with an electric charge. “Bruce!” He shouted, his voice echoing off the walls. Bruce turned, gun raised, ready to face his nemesis. “Lecter. Finally decided to show your face? You’ve been hiding behind her all this while, haven’t you?”Lecter’s eyes were cold, calculating. “This ends now, Bruce. No more games.” Bruce laughed, a harsh, mirthless sound. “You think you can take me down? You’re a fool to think so, Lecter.” Lecter moved with lightning speed, closing the distance between them in a heartbeat. He knocked the gun from Bruce’s hand, sending it skidding across the floor. The two men clashed in a brutal hand to

    Bruce stared out the window of Raphael's former office, which was now his own. The city was alive before him, a web of lights and life, oblivious to the power struggles that took place within its own shadows.He had fought hard to get where he was, as far as he was concerned, taking over Raphael's organization after the old boss's untimely demise. But victory felt hollow. Ursula, his sister, had deserted him, leaving him to run the business alone. He scowled, thinking of her betrayal.And besides, he had bigger fish to fry. Lecter. That bastard had managed to slip from his hands the other day, but he wouldn’t be so lucky next time. The door to the office opened, and Bruce turned, expecting one of his new underlings. Instead, Rachel walked in, and Cecil came in after her. He gave Cecil a questioning look, and he responded with shaking his head, so he turned back to Rachael. Her presence was like a punch to the gut. He hadn't seen her since their last heated argument, and her sudden

    Lecter picked up the phone. “Lecter, it's Rachel.” She said hurriedly. “I know where Bruce is. He's at an old warehouse on the east side of the city.” “Are you sure?” Lecter asked, his heart pounding. He was ready to give up all his wealth for Anna. “Positive.” Rachel replied. “I’ve been following him. He doesn't know I'm onto him yet.” “Thank you, Rachel. I owe you.” “A million dollars, I’m sure. Just get them out safe.” Rachel said. “I'll keep an eye out and make sure he doesn't slip away.” Lecter hung up and called his bodyguards. “We have a location. I’ll send the coordinates now, move out immediately!” As Lecter and his men sped towards the warehouse, he felt nothing but anger and fear. He couldn’t lose Anna and Mia, especially not to Bruce. Not like this, at least.- - - Bruce was in full panic mode now. He knew it was only a matter of time before Lecter arrived. He looked at Anna and Mia, who were watching him in silence. “What are we going to do?” Cecil ask

    Lecter sat in his upper minimalist office that gave him the best view in the city. The large window that went roof to floor made him feel like he had the entire world at his feet, and currently, that was how he felt. He had just closed a multi million dollar deal and was ready to call it a day when his phone rang. The caller ID showed a number that looked familiar, but he hadn't seen in a while. His brows furrowed as he picked up. “Lecter here.” He said, his voice cold. “Hello, old friend.” Came the reply, cold as ice. Lecter's heart skipped a beat. It was Bruce. “What do you want, Bruce?” Lecter asked Cooley. “Straight to the point as always. See, I have something— or rather, someone that belongs to you.” Bruce said, a sinister chuckle following his words. “Two someones, actually.” He laughed like a maniac. Lecter’s grip on the phone tightened. “What are you talking about?” “You might know Anna and Mia.” Bruce said casually, as if he was just discussing the weather.

I need your help," he said, trying to keep his voice calm.Anna's concerned tone was immediate. "Raj, what's wrong?""It's Mia. She left the house a few hours ago to meet with Detective Bruce, but she's not responding to my calls or messages. I'm getting really worried."Anna's pause was brief. "I'll try to reach her. Can you tell me more about what happened?"Raj explained how Mia had been acting strange lately, and how she had received a mysterious message that had shaken her. He told Anna about Mia's decision to meet with Detective Bruce, hoping to uncover some answers."I should have gone with her," Raj said, regret creeping into his voice.Anna reassured him.

    "Who are you? What do you want? Get your fucking hands off me this instant!" Cecil continued to yell as the people who had taken him led him through a rather long corridor. There was a large cloth over his head but Cecil could definitely feep where he was."I demand you to release me this instant!" He yelled again but none of them said anything. Then they stopped, opened a door and stepped inside a room. They then dropped Cecil on the ground and walked away.Cecil breathed heavily while he tried to make sense of the darkness around him. He heard footsteps approaching him and braced himself."You will regret ever abducting me! I will destroy you!" Cecil snapped. Then the cloth was taken off his head and Bruce's face came into view."You will do yourself a great favor by stopping to make threats. We both know they don't serve you," he said to Cecil who watched him slowly."Detective Bruce? What happened to you?" He asked Bruce who walked to a wooden chair and sat down."I'm not a dete

    Cecil drove back home, feeling very satisfied after humiliating the sex worker. He couldn't believe that all what he needed to feel so good was to humiliate someone else, this shifting his position as the humiliated. He drove back to his mansion, the night calling with it's dark embrace. As soon as Cecil parked his car, he stepped down and then looked at his men."Did I have any visitors?" He asked them."Not at all sir. It's been quiet since you left," they replied to him. Cecil grunted and walked into his house grumbling. As he walked, he remembered Lecter and the terrible blow that he'd been dealt. How was it that he hadn't been able to take Lecter out? It didn't make sense to Cecil, and he just found the entire thing very weird. But he proceeded to just go inside.He went into the room where he was keeping Sophia locked up.

    Cecil fumed in his house while he waited for his men to return. He had sent them on a very important mission, one that could possibly turn the tides of the entire drag of power. When Cecil heard that they were back, he quickly rushed down to meet with them. However, the men had a gloomy look on their faces."What is it? What happened?" Cecil asked them. The men exchanged glances before one of them spoke up "Sorry boss, but the house was empty," he said to Cecil."Empty? What do you mean empty? Lecter's mansion is never empty. It's always filled with people and we know this!" He said to the man."Yes boss. However, not this time. The mansion was empty. There was no one there. Not even a dog. It was as if they vacated the place," the man replied.Cecil was in shock. There was no way Lecter could have predicted accurately what he wanted to do, right? Or did he have a spy in his house? Someone reporting his works to Lecter?"What did you do about the house?" He asked the man. "We burn
