A few moments before the shooting.“I’m telling you, sir,” Rodnie was warning Shadow about Blackbear and Dewar. “Those two are up to no good. If they don’t cause some ruckus at this party, I’ll go bald!”“Mm?” Shadow looked at Rodnie’s head. “You don’t have much hair left anyway.”“That’s not the point!”“Haha, don’t worry. I’ll go and deal with this Blackbear guy right now if that’s what you want.”“Let me accompany you then.”Rodnie and Shadow together looked for Blackbear.Akash was proudly explaining to Veronica’s friends that the suit he wore was actually chosen by Veronica. When she had given him the suit, he got emotional and hugged her back then, but he didn’t need to tell all that to her friends.“She bought you this costly suit?” her friends didn’t believe Akash’s words. “Why would she do that? She never bought anything even for her boyfriends before. What are you to her?”“W-What am I to her?” Akash hesitantly said, “I’m her friend.”“Pfft, then what are we? Why didn’t she
Amber was slowly pouring wine in Shawn’s mouth. Neither of them were yet aware of Benjamin’s identity, as nobody had come and told them yet.“Sir, is it really okay for you to be drinking now?” Amber asked. She didn’t want to be wasting her time here like this! She had seen a handsome guy among the guests, and she wanted to seduce him at all costs.However, they heard gunshots all of a sudden.Amber shook, and the wine ended up falling over Shawn’s face, and some went into his nose, making him sneeze and cough, and that hurt his muscles, making him cry.“W-What’s that noise? Crackers?” As she said, she could hear people shouting. “I-Is somebody shooting outside?” the wine bottle in her hands fell and broke. Luckily, no glass pieces hit her. “Are they going after the president?” she tried to go closer to the window.“Don’t go there, you idiot,” Shawn warned.“Why?” she asked, but then she realized what she was doing, and then ended up walking away from there. “Thank you.”Moments later
Rebecca woke up and found herself in an old, cold, dark cell that looked like it had been built in medieval times. The ground and the walls were pleated with dirt and dried blood. Spiders were fighting on the cobwebs for the lone fly that got caught.And Rebecca wasn’t alone in this cell. There were six more women beside her: Jane, Reena, Sasha, Naida, Sofia, and Yureka. Rebecca recognized all of their faces except that of Yureka.“Where is this place?” Her arms were bound by thick rope, which she couldn’t free from, no matter how hard she tried. She didn’t know how much time had passed, but at least, she was wearing the same dress as she had during the party.She heard the sound of footsteps and quickly closed her eyes.Bella and Louis stopped outside the cold cell.Bella snorted and said, “We can tell from your breathing that you’re awake, Rebecca.”Rebecca frowned and opened her eyes, only to see her brother and sister-in-law on the other side of the thick, iron-cage wall. She didn
All the seven women had woken up, and they ate away the silence without restraint. While Rebecca stayed silent for the most part, the same wasn’t the case for others.“They brought us here because of you!” Jane kept blaming Reena, as she was a famous actress.“Nonsense,” Reena brushed her words aside. “If they only wanted me, they would have only captured me. Why would they go through the effort of kidnapping the seven of us? Surely, there’s something more to this than we know.”“They probably want money,” Sofia Myers blurted. “What other reason can there be? I can tell that most of us are rich. It’s obvious if you ask me.”“I’m poor, though,” Sasha voiced her mind. “Maybe, it’s not just the money they’re after.”Sofia looked at Sasha with disdain all of a sudden.“W-What?” Sasha was shocked. “Did I do something wrong?”“I think she’s a spy put among us,” Sofia opined, “to gather more information about us.”“Huh?” Sasha’s jaw dropped. “I’m not a spy! How did you come to that conclusio
Benjamin and Shadow had just stopped on a lone island in the middle of the ocean.“I don’t smell them in the air,” Shadow opined. “You think this is the place?”Benjamin, however, didn’t reply, making Shadow wonder if Benjamin was still mad at him for the stunts he pulled at the party.Shadow looked around. “There are no footprints, either. Wait…” his eyes narrowed down on a bush, from where he could feel a heat signature. With a leap, he reached there and kicked the thorn bush aside, revealing to view a heavy metal door with bones & wings symbol at the top. “Black Feathers…”A part of the door opened and launched bullets at Shadow. With quick steps, he dodged all the bullets with no problem. When the machine was reloading, he punched it and destroyed the entire metal door along with it. The broken metal door fell and rolled down the wide stairs that led deep into the ground.“Is this all the defense they got?” Shadow felt it utterly underwhelming. “Mm?” He noticed that Benjamin was l
As the eight dragons charged Benjamin from eight directions, Goat, the goat-masked man, blurted. “I fucked your mom fifteen times, so you can call me your uncle.”Beaver kicked up a huge amount of sand that went like a wave toward Benjamin.Eagle grew wings on his back and flew through the sand and clawed forth. “Black Wind Blaze!”A terrible black fire burst out of his claws and aimed to split Benjamin’s body into six pieces.Benjamin waved his hand and deflected the flames toward Snake.“Howling Hiss!” Snake screamed out a combination of a hiss and a howl that dissipated the flames and went on to disrupt the flow and rhythm of everyone the sound waves touched. It was a hypnotizing howl that affected not just the other dragons but also the creatures in the ocean as it traveled for many miles.Being fellow vampires, the dragons were able to withstand her ability at the cost of a significant exertion of energy from their side. The fishes in the ocean, however, began going crazy and sta
An audio interview of Butcher Bones was constantly being played in the rooms where the Slaughter Squad members were staying.“What makes the mafia great?” the interviewer asked.“Rich businessmen have money but not power. Politicians have power and money but not women. We, the mafia, have it all—money, power, and women. We control the music industry that captures the minds of the population. We supervise the film celebrities through their agents. We decide who wins in professional sports and what gets played on the news channels. We control a lot of things. We run the show behind the scenes. Be that as it may, just one splendid actor is enough to sway the minds and hearts of an entire generation. We always look for those kinds of gems the most.”Suddenly, the audio was interrupted with a new signal, with the foxy maid giving the orders: You’ve been assigned to kill the targets, Gray Ghost, Black Ghost, and their children. They are in the G Block. Room number 76.All the 111 members of
Butcher arrived at the cell he had kept the women in, but all of them were gone, except for one corpse. He also saw the ropes on the floor, and they were uncut.“These little bitches… how did they untie themselves?” he gnashed his gold teeth and followed their scents. “I’ve got all your scents memorized. No matter where you go, you can’t escape from me. When I catch you, I’ll show you what hell looks like!”The only issue he had was the women being captured by the Ten Dragons. Though he was part of Torn and was very confident about fighting them one-on-one, he wasn’t too sure about fighting two of them, much less the ten of them. This was also the reason he had called the likes of Samael. With multiple opposing parties present, he was hoping to sell the women for the highest price possible. Not just Rebecca, but other billionaire daughters would also be sold for a very high price in his opinion.He eventually found the six women, but the foxy maid had beaten half of them black and blu
