Chapter Twenty Three
“The Bayview County Morgue has been attacked. The incident occurred at 9pm last night. The morgue assistant, identified as Philip Jones, and four security guards were murdered. Police say the attackers came specifically to extract a blood sample from a corpse. Four hours after the Bayview attack, another hit took place at Bloodstone Tower. Officers reported that the criminals attempted to break into the vault but failed. Six officers were confirmed dead. And three - injured. Evidence gathered so far links both attacks to a Mafia group called Trysis, led by Al — known for several political heists. The Minister for Security assures that they will be brought to justice. This is the news from Star TV, and I am Amelia Williams. Good even—”Al grabbed the remote and killed the TV before she finished. He flung the remote into the wall. His fist tightened, and he kicked the table — it exploded into pieces. Veins crawled up his neck.“You all need to start explaining,” he thundered. “You said
Chapter Twenty Two
“Who the fuck could be doing this?” Al thundered, pacing the room. He tore off his hat, ran a hand through his hair, and glared at everyone. “Someone knew we were coming for him and decided to kill him.”“I don’t think that’s what’s going on,” Tyler cut in, cautious like he was walking on a minefield.“Then what is going on?” Dera snapped, eyes slicing into him.Tyler bit his lip, meeting her stare. “If anyone else was coming for Vladimir, it’s for the same reason we went after him. He just got into the country. Why would anyone want him dead? It has to be because of that stone.”He glanced around, scanning the faces of everyone in the room.Al said nothing. He cracked open a bottle of whiskey and swallowed half of it like water.“I can’t lose millions just like that,” he growled, leaning over the table. “Something has to be done. Fast.”“What if there’s another way to unlock the vault?” Ria asked, leaning in.“Vladimir’s the only one who can unlock it, dummy,” Dera snapped. “Maybe you
Chapter Twenty One
It's been two days after Raymond's surgery and two days since Al introduced the Starlight Serenity Diamond mission. Al assigned Ria to uncover who had the code and the biometrics to unlock the vault in the Bloodstone Tower. Without it, every attempt - would be a waste of time. **** "His name is Vladimir Pavel." Ria began. A picture of a bald man - appeared on the monitor. "He's a Russian Democrat. He runs a human trafficking ring, an illicit arms and drug dealer, and a black market organ trader." Everyone had their eyes on the screen as Ria spoke. Tyler rubbed his jaw and exhaled. "So how's he connected to the Diamond?" Tyler asked. "Yeah, spill, Ria." Al's voice blared, smoke flying around him, as Dera stood beside him. "He didn't really purchase the Starlight Serenity Diamond." Ria declared. "He stole it." "How's that even possible?" Tyler smirked - his mouth curved between a grin and a frown. "He stole it from Sultan Khalifa, a monarch in Saudi Arabia. He snuck i
Chapter Twenty
"Ria how long would it take you to gather evidence. I can see that you're not being serious with this mission. Don't push me, your fucking retarded brunette." Ria rolled her eyes as she read the text. She put her phone back in her pocket, and turned her gaze back on o the hospital bed. Where Raymond was laying. It's been two days after his surgery. He's still in a coma. And according to the doctor's statement, his chances of survival are higher. She couldn't wait to see him back on his feet. She leaned forward in her chair, beeping or hospital machines blaring in her ears. Ria placed her hands on Raymond's feeble fingers. An oxygen machine was placed across his face. "I'm really sorry, Ray." Ria muttered. For a split second, it felt like she was apologizing to someone who's listening. "I'm sorry, you had to be betrayed this way. I know you're going hate everyone so much for doing this to you." Until the first tear dropped, Ria didn't realize how stunned and broken she was. Guilt s
Chapter Nineteen
Ria couldn't get the muffled sound she heard out of her head. While Tyler was in the car moments ago, he noticed a slight movement on Raymond's body. A part of her think he might be alive or something. And that's the reason she alighted from the vehicle. Just to dashed a single spark of curiosity. Exasperated breaths glided out of Ria's mouth as she proceeded towards the bush. She looked around for a split second, before walking a little bit closer to the dumped body. Ria ripped the leather wrap apart. And she pulled Raymond out of it and placed him on the bare ground. The darkness made a little bit dark to figure out Raymond's face. Yet, the bright shimmers of the moon slapped out Raymond's wrist watch. Ria knelt beside him. The cold grasses sent cold shrills down, her spine, but the terror in her heart wouldn't let her bother. She slowly paced two fingers on Raymond's neck - hoping a pulse would push through. A surge of disappointment ran through her system as none was forth com
Chapter Eighteen (A void)
Tears trickled down Raymond's cheeks. When the first bullet pierced through his chest, he locked eyes with the barrel of a gun - clinging to Dera's hand. It felt like he was lost in a trance until the second bullet pierced through his chest. Raymond groaned in pain. Not only because of the excruciating pain from bleeding scar. But because this whole betrayal scheme had Dèra in it.He fell to the floor - eyes soaked in tears, a heart smashed into fragments, and a chest - pierced with two bullets. AI took the gun off Dera's grip. "You still have the mafia blood running in your veins." Al commended, mashing his mouth on Dera's lips. Tyler and Ria exchanged glances, their eyes - sticking out in terror. The last thing they expected Al to do was kill Raymond. He's the smartest and fastest killer in the gang. At first, Ria wanted to defend Raymond. But Al's ruthlessness sent shrills of fear down her gut. If he can kill Raymond without a flick of remorse, driving a knife into her throat w
