"What kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into now, Ivy? You know very well that I cannot assist you very much." The matron yelled back. She was already flustered from the stress. Her sister on the other hand was not helping matters."Sister, listen to me. Oliver Lionheart is a danger that you need to take care of. He is an extremely powerful man and he will stop at nothing to get what he wants.""You're the one who poisoned him. You worked with that scumbag Viktor Grey and you put our family at risk. You have to deal with this all by yourself." Was the matrons response."Help me. Help me and I promise you, fifty percent of what I have goes to you. All you need to do is agree to take Oliver out right now and you will have a deal. Think about it sister, he already knows about your husband. How long do you think it will take before he tries to blackmail you with that secret? You stand at the risk of losing everything you have ever had worked for, everything you have. Oliver Lionhea
Oliver stealthily moved to the side of the woods as the gunshots continued. He was careful so as to avoid detection by the women. The women placed themselves in strategic positions as they fired at the shadows, and as Oliver crept, they did not notice him at first.Oliver slowly positioned himself beside a tree. He pointed his gun and aimed for Ivana. She was busy raining down bullets on Oliver's car that she did not see hum. Then, he shot.But Ivana moved briefly, making the bullet to Pierce her shoulder instead. She screamed as blood poured out of the wound and she dragged herself on the ground before she opened fire on Oliver.Oliver hid behind a tree as the bullets ransacked the woods. He waited for his moment, using Ivana's screams and tears as a guide. She kept shooting until her gun ran out of bullets.Then Oliver began again. He kept shooting, taking out so many of the women in the process. He shot one in the head, and her blood splashed on Ivana's face. Ivana yelled while dra
The matron paced around the room. She held a glass of wine in her hand as several thoughts raced through her head. Her sister had indeed outdone herself and she was certain she would give her stern discipline. The basis of their family was the belief that women could rule better than men and so the matron saw no reason why Ivy would do something so stupid.She walked towards the Flowers being exposed to the sunlight and sniffled them. They filled her nostrils with so much pleasure. Those particular flowers were capable of producing intoxicating effects in the nervous system and matron was, sadly, addicted to them. She sniffled them again to clear her head."What's taking them so long?" She asked herself as anxiety nearly took a toll on her. Ivana was supposed to be back by then. She did not understand why killing a man could be so difficult for them to do. Ivana was her most fierce soldier. She trusted her abilities."Matron! You have to come here now!" One of her girls screamed. The
"Secure the building!" The matron yelled at her women as they watched her in confusion. Neither of them knew what was going on. She breathed harshly as she tried to get her feet to actually work."What are you doing? Secure the building. Double the security. We have possible Invaders on their way!" The matron yelled again and when the women heard the words, they quickly rushed into action."Secure the gates! Mount defenses! We have a threat coming!" Veronika, the new Captain barked orders at the women. The Matron just watched as the women ran Helter skelter. They quickly armed themselves with guns and took strategic positions."Don't worry matron, no one will get past these gates." Veronika said to the matron who just shuddered as she stepped inside. She quickly went to inhale the special flowers and she took a bottle of wine. She drank directly from the bottle and moaned as the liquid burned her throat. "Oliver...you brat! I'll kill you tonight!" The matron cursed. She drank more of
Ivy walked around her sister's corpse. She sniffled as she gazed into the cold eyes of the fierce woman that she once loved as her only sister. The other female soldiers paid close attention as Ivy proceeded to light a match.The body was placed on a pile of wood. Petrol was poured over the corpse and the women stood a few feet away from the wood. It was the family's belief that a matron should be cremated and the ashes scattered to the wind. They believed that in that sacred practice, the matron would be able to pass it's wisdom to the new one.A boom set the corpse ablaze. Ivy gazed at the burning wood and while she did so, anger filled her spirit. She wanted to kill Oliver so much. Her heart ached from the anger she felt. She stood still and watched the fire ravage the body of the matron and while the flames burned, the women all turned to her and bowed. "We accept you, Ivy, as our matron. We believe that this sacred act will fill you with the wisdom that you need to lead us. We k
A tall man walked into the room. He wore a very expensive velvet suit that made him look like some sort of king. He wore glasses and hada walking stick. The man slowly gazed upon Ivy as he approached, and his presence seemed to bring about some sort of terror to Ivy."It's been a while, Belmont. You look even better than the last time I saw you." Ivy said to him but the man was silent. He just walked closer, took his seat and sighed."Where is her body?" He asked as Ivy poured herself a drink. The man was obviously not the type for useless talk."We cremated her as is our tradition. You know this before now. It could not wait." She said to Belmont who sighed. "Wine?" She asked and he nodded. She poured a glass for him and he swallowed it in one single gulp."Who did it?" He asked her. Ivy slowly settled her cup on the table. She looked him in the eye."Oliver Lionheart." She responded."Oliver Lionheart? Why does that make sound familiar?" The man asked."Probably because you knew his
Minerva coughed as Oliver walked into the room. She was sitting beside Marv, and he had his arms wrapped around her. Mia sat at the side of the room, and she gazed at Oliver as he took his seat."So, what now? Is it over?" Mia asked. She was unasy, everyone could tell. "We did not really achieve anything in our trip, and as far as I can tell, I think we might have a fully blown war soon." She added and Stefano sighed."There will be no war. I understand that we are in a tight spot at the moment, but we must not give up. Everything will fall into place. I know it will." Oliver said, but Stefano laughed out loud. Oliver turned his gaze to him and frowned at Stefano's behavior."Is anything funny?" He asked Stefano who managed to stop himself from laughing."Yes, everything is funny. You are funny. I don't know how you manage to do but your optimism might be the very thing that kills you." Stefano said to him. Marv instantly got alarmed, and Minerva placed her hand on his lap to calm him
Pascal typed furiously on his laptop. He was already getting things ready for the big day tomorrow. He knew that arresting Oliver Lionheart would probably be the breakthrough he had been looking for in his career, and so he was not going to fuck it up.But why had Mia refuse to listen to him? Why did she decide to ally herself with someone like Oliver Lionheart? He just could not understand the reason why she would refuse to obey him. All he wanted was for her to be safe. Pascal quickly rounded up what he was doing. The weirdo of a partner he now had did not show up to work. He didn't ask. He had too much on his plate as it was.Pascal's phone rang afterward. It was Mia calling."I thought you would never speak to me again." He said to her and heard her sigh."You are my best friend. I'd die if I did not talk to you. Are you free?" She asked him."Was just about to get lunch. Maybe you can step out of that house and meet me at Brigs?" He asked her."Yeah sure. I'd like that. See you i
"How is the child holding up?" Jake asked Viktor Grey over the phone while he fixed his attention on Stacy. The little child was obviously terrified, and the constant dripping of water from the leaking pipes made her even more unsettled."She is coping better than I imagined. Now all that is left is for us to kill that bastard cop and Oliver with it," Viktor Grey said to him."I know that Oliver will reach out soon. And when he does, I will be ready for him. You have dozens of my men to guard you there. You will be fine," Jake told Viktor Grey and then hung up. As soon as he did, Viktor returned his attention to Stacy.She whimpered and dragged herself back as he approached her..he had a wicked laugh on his face."Don't be afraid little one. I will not hurt you. I just want to hurt your daddy and the man he works with. You see, I used to have a daughter like you. Her name was Elina. She was very beautiful and she was brilliant. But the man your daddy works with killed her and so, I wa
"This can be a trap. Tell me why I must believe you," Oliver asked her and Beth sighed. She could not believe that she was making some sort of negotiation with Oliver."Left for me, you will be behind bars right now. But I am doing this for Steven and I am breaking my code to do it so do not make it harder than it already is," she said to him and Oliver smiled."I like you. Come with me," he told her and then led her to his study. Miranda was there clicking furiously on the systems there.. when Beth approached, she stopped what she was doing and then gazed at Beth for a while."Miranda, meet Beth, Beth Miranda. She's our eyses in the sky. I have a feeling that you'll both be friends. Beth, tell me where you think Stacy is," Oliver asked."Somewhere in St Lambert's City. The tiger gang has a secret hideout in St Lambert's that they use for various dangerous activities. My best guess would be that they brought her here to avoid suspicion from the cops. Besides, it was probably a diversi
"Heard what?" Oliver could feel his anger rising. The heat in the room suddenly increased and when he approachd Pascal, Pascal jerked back to avoid the possible punch that was coming his way "I did not know about Mia. I am really sorry Oliver. I am broken beyond what you can imagine. And I am furious! I am so furious that I wan to vent my anger on someone and I don't know who," Pascal said to him."And why are you here then? To vent your anger on me?" Oliver asked while raising his eyebrow. Pascal sighed defeated as his shoulders dropped."No, not at all. I just came here to help you in your mission.. I know that you will not sit tight and watch those who killed her be at peace. I know that you will destroy them. So I want to join you. Please Oliver forgive me. I need your forgiveness. I know that I do not deserve it but I just want you to please forgive me," he said to oliver. Oliver did not feel his anger subside, not even for a moment. He gazed at Pascal again and Wondered what mi
"No, fuck! This cannot he happening to me!" Steven tried to breath as the words found their way out of his mouth but he just could not fathom the degree of pain that he was feeling. Anger would not help him at that time he thought. Jake had decided to Target his family and the only way that he was getting his family back was if met Jake's forces with one that was equal to the task, or if he surrenders.Steven quickly took the phone. He dialed Oliver's number and waited for him to pick up the phone."Steven," Oliver said as soon as he picked us up."Oliver. He has my daughter. That bastard has taken my daughter and I do not know what to do. He said he'll send me a location to meet with him and I have to decide whether or not I'll give my life for her," Steven blurted out."Take it easy Steven. Nothing will happen to your daughter or to you. I will ensure it," Oliver told him."But what can you do? Jake said that you cannot help me. My only option is to die for my daughter to live. I ha
"Like we said earlier, we do not allow anyone without an invitation to pass. I don't care if you are the chief of police. You are not stepping into this house," the guard repeated and that made Steven to wonder just how bad it is that the police force in Marshtown had fallen. If they could have no respect for his badge, then he just had to beat the living shit out of them"Let me pass. I will not ask you again," Steven said to the guards. One of them brought out his gun and gazed at Steven with fierce eyes."You need to leave now, mister or we will have a oribkemy," he said to Steven and just as Steven was about to make a move at them, the front door opened.. it was the judge"Let him through. He and I have some catching up to do," the judge said and the bodyguards let Steven pass. Steven followed the judge to The living room and there the judge settled himself into a chair. He even appeared to be Richer than he was some months ago."I can see that you are back from the dead, Steven.
"Chief, what are you doing here?" Steven asked the chief as he slowly approached him. The chief paid close attention to the files that was in Steven's hands and then his eyes roamed to Steven's."Don't tell me you still plan on pursuing that case. I told you it was dangerous, Steven and you do not want to listen to me. That case will get you killed," the chief said and Steven dropped the files in his hand. He paid a closer look to the chief and for real he could see worry in the man's face."I don't understand. Why are you telling me all of this?" He asked the chief really desperate for answers. The chief sighed."When the tiger gang found out that you were following them, they planned to have you killed. They reached out to me and asked me to do the job otherwise they would kill my family. I tried to beg them but they were adamant. They would not take no for an answer. So, I made up my mind about you," the chief stopped, and then observed the dark face that Steven was wearing at that
"Come in, you will be safe here," Bill said to Avira. She gazed into the well furnished apartment before she stepped inside. The warmth of the place enveloped her and for a moment, she was feeling secure."I still don't understand why I'm hwre. I told you I was fine. You didn't need to go through all of this for me," she told him."Nonsense. You were lucky that day that you stepped out to get coffee while he explosion occurred. If Oliver's enemies wanted to know something about him, who do you think will be in the best position to tell them what's happening with him? Of course it's his secretary. I want to keep you safe so that no harm will come to you," he added. Avira could feel her heart melting. But she refused to admit it."Well in that case, I hope there is something to drink. Where are we exactly?" She asked him."This is my house. I come here sometimes to relax for a moment and then focus my thoughts." He told her."You are really loyal to Oliver. You literally forget to live
Oliver drove his car to the address on the envelope. It was an expensive restaurant, one that he had planned to visit with Mia after their honeymoon. He shoved back the painful thoughts and then stepped down from the car. Oliver gazed the entrance one more time and then stepped into the restaurant."Good evening sir, how may I be of assistance?" A waiter asked him and then oliver smiled."Good evening. I am looking for this table," he said and then showed her the number on the envelope. The girl smiled at him again."Please come with me sir," she said and then led him away. Oliver followed her closely, and as they walked through the scanty place, he could feel the eyes of some people on him. He knew who they were immediately, they were part of Jake's group."In here sir," she said to him and Oliver Stepped into the room that she was pointing towards. As soon as he entered the well decorated space, he looked around.There were beautiful lighting all over the place and the large chairs
"So you mean to tell me that that lowlife cop decided to show again in my town?" Jake asked over the phone and the chief of police sighed"I gave him explicit warnings and told him not to ever return to this town but he did not listen. I don't know how he managed to work his way back. My instructions were very clear on him sir. That cop Should never set foot in Marshtown, that was what I said." The chief of police stated and Jake laughed."It seems like he is begging to die. I suppose that I should Grant his wish then. If he wants death, who am I to say that I will not kill him?" He said to the chief of police."Give him some time sir. I am sure that I can persuade him to return to St Lambert's City. He cannot gain anything from being here. He will only make things worse. He came back and started accusing the tiger gang of being responsible of some crimes. I will take care of him myself. You do not need to worry," the chief of police stated. He wanted to save Steven's life at least.
