There were four men sitting in the dimly lit room. It was afternoon, but the whole room was almost pitch black, yet they all knew themselves. Three of the four men sat huddled around the table and it was clear from the looks on their faces that they were frustrated and disappointed. They were the hired assassins from the local gang who had been tasked to eliminate Andrew Raine, but it was clear from the foregoing that their mission had hit a snag. Their employer, who was dressed in a tuxedo, cleared his throat, not.looking quite happy. He had gone to sleep last night with a smile, hoping that he would wake up to the news this morning, but it was afternoon, and he hadn't heard anything yet. He had to call an impromptu meeting and find out what was wrong. He was a man used to getting what he wanted and however he wanted it, so the failure of his hired guns wasn't something he was going to take lightly, never! The assassins exchanged glances before one of them, a burly man with a scar
His heart jumped when he heard a movement behind him. He quickly put the small sample back into his dress. "I was forgetting something." She said, reaching for her purse which was tucked on the edge of the table. He smiled uncomfortably before taking up the wine glass and pretending to take a sip. Once she was back inside her room, he glanced behind him to make sure that she was watching him and once it was clear that she wasn't, he finally took out the sample. He had been waiting for this moment for what felt like eternity. It had been a little hard to convince her to trust him this much, considering that Karen wasn't a fool. She still had some sense, but her love for material things had done her a great deal of pain as it was going to do when he was done with her. She was relaxed around him and now and so carefree, completely unaware of the dangers that were lurking around. They had met for only two weeks, but she had already let her guard down around him and trusted him so much.
Andrew stepped out of his sleek black car and quickly began to walk into the large establishment. He could feel the eyes of the people around him as he hurried his way into the hospital to get it done once and for all. He had gotten what he needed and this was going to be the final plan before releasing the news to the public that she was indeed lying. He couldn't wait to see her in pain when everyone finally understood the reason he left her and that she was just a sore manipulator and sadist who was looking for someone to ruin. His heart was beating very fast with anticipation as he wondered how this was going to turn out. He was still masked as Alex, and was pretty sure that nobody was going to find out that it was indeed him. The only reason, then, why people stared at him the way they did eight now was because of the luxury and affluence that he exhumed. Approaching the front desk, he caught the eyes of a nurse who was busy typing away on her computer. He made sure she saw how
"Ughhh!" Her eyes fluttered open but she was instantly hit with an acute headache. "Aargh!" She screamed, as her consciousness slowly started to creep in. She was acutely aware of the heaviness weighing down her legs and the way her tongue felt so dry as if it had been rinsed. It felt like a very thick fog had settled over her mind and her thoughts had all been clouded. She felt so disoriented as she tried to put everything together. Everything in her body felt so chaotic and she couldn't piece together what was going on no matter how hard she tried. It felt like every attempt to get back herself was useless. Nothing seemed to work at all, and it scared her so much. Her mind was still grappling with the shock and horror of the situation when she tried to lift her hand and hold her forehead which seemed like it would fall off from the pounding headache, but that's the moment she came to the horrifying realisation that she couldn't move her hand or any part of her body. It felt like
As soon as Andrew was done dealing with Karen, he quickly started to take care of his second mission. Two days after he had leaked her pregnancy tests to the public, he watched as she received numerous backslashes from several people.She was the topic of the town for many days and it was so bad that it was reported she had fallen into depression from the abusive comments. Her social media profiles had been taken down following the incident, which was a very start proof of how bad the whole thing had affected her. Andrew wished that worse and even happened to her, because someone who had the heart to treat him the way she did and still go ahead to lie to the public that he had gotten her pregnant and was on the run to avoid child support deserved worse than what she got. He couldn't wait to get on with his other missions and give his other enemies what they fucking deserved. This was just the start and by the time he was done with each and everyone of them, they would think twice be
Despite the smile that had creeped up his face, Andre could feel his heart pounding with anticipation beneath the whole calm facade. He stood before the mirror, ready to take on the day and see his enemy, the one person he had travelled all this way to deal with. He couldn't wait to get ready with it and that was why he wanted to study the environs at first so that he would know how best it would be to deal with the man. He didn't have to do that back then because he didn't need it, but this was a foreign soil and it demanded familiarity before he did what was needed. He sighed deeply to calm himself down before summoning the mask. An array of colours quickly appeared and moved in a serpentine motion around his face. Andrew's face changed as soon as the colours were gone. He was no longer Andrew now, but Alex. The feeling of having two different personalities was very satisfying, especially with the way you had to mess with people who knew you too well before while pretending to be
Karen stared at the letter for a while, nodding her head as if she was replying to the owner of the letter. There was something about the letter that ignited the fire in her heart even though she had been feeling so terrible and awful for a number of days now. Something about it revived the vengeance in her, the one that she had no idea how to awaken since Alex had done what he did to her. Alex was in her plans, and she vowed that one day she was going to get him and deal with him, and teach him what would never make him forget her in a hurry. But she knew that the person behind all this was Andrew, and he was in fact, the one who needed to be seriously dealt with. She couldn't believe that she had allowed Alex into her life and he had easily escaped like that, now she couldn't let the public know that she was drugged because it would arouse a lot of suspicions that she was with another man. So for now, she decided that it was going to be best to lie low and only raise her head whe
Acclimatising himself to the bustling environment of the new school, Alex (Andrew) couldn't help but pick out one of the distinctive features that the university had. It was very surprising to him that there was still a case of social hierarchy that determined a lot of things here. The pecking order was clear, because there were certain groups of students that held swag over the others. They did everything in their power to enforce intimidation and fear so that others who weren't part of their group would steer clear. There were numerous reports of students getting into fights and the police intervening every now and then. He wondered if he was going to use it to his advantage in any way possible, and also asked his system if it would be nice to beat up the bad guys and get reward points from them, but he got a reply that it wasn't yet the time. He couldn't wait. He was walking through the crowded corridor one afternoon when he stumbled into a very troubling scene. Something had hap
