The purpose of a black rose is known to everyone who is in dangerous business. It means that an enemy has an eye on you and wants to harm you and because of that, Logan Russell is disturbed. The file came from his Bank's headquarters and that means that nothing should have gotten in there without being noticed, but that's not the case. From the moment it left the desk of his manager, and till it got to the hands of his assistant, there seems to be no explanation of how it came to be here in the first place. Logan is frustrated and mad, he wants to know who has had the heart to threaten him like this, but now one has been found. He has remained in his house and deployed all the most well-trained pawns of his Mafia to guide him.

The Return Of The God of War 27
Logan feels his legs quivering under some kind of weight and he has the urge to piss himself on the spot. He enlarges the screen that has the faceless man on his screen and the sound is activated. " Is it on?" The faceless man turns to one of the guards, who is pointing a gun directly in his face. Even with so many guns pointed at him, he is bothered at all. He keeps his cool and is even waving. " Hey, this is Logan Russell. " He hopes his voice sounds normal and not shaky like how he feels on the inside. " Who are you and what do you want here?"" Logan Russell?" He says. " That's exactly who I came here to see?"" But you have to bear in mind that you are surrounded by the best-trained guards you have ever seen and they are going to bring you down. " Logan warns him. " I'm sorry my friend, but your end has come. "The faceless man laughs, there is nothing sinister about his laughter, but it still gives Logan chills. " I am far from being done, Logan. " He speaks like he knows h

" Holy shit! Fucking hell!" Logan drops his gun and steps away in fear. Lord Riverbank is stiff on the ground and a small pool of blood is forming underneath him. He raises his hands in the air to show Duke that he is not trying to fight back or attack him at all. " You don't have to kill me, I don't even know you. " He begs. " Hey, listen. " Duke takes off his mask to reveal his face. " You have got to calm down and stop acting like a little girl. " The way Logan's face stops shows that he wasn't expecting this beautiful face to belong to such a cold-blooded killer. " What do you want from me?" He breathes. " Let's sit and talk. " Duke pulls a chair and sits. It takes a few seconds, but Logan does the same. He takes one look at a dead Lord Riverbank on the ground and he shuts his eyes and looks away. " Come on, get over it. " Duke hiss. " Haven't you killed someone before? Haven't you seen someone die?"" Well, I wouldn't kill someone on a Persian carpet. " He sighs. " It wa

Another death again is too much for the great five. They have lost three Lords already and only one is still living and he is about to lose his shit. Mister Jimmy is sitting in the living room with the newspaper that bears the death of Lord Riverbank on the front page. He had gone to see a big CEO and was shot right there in the man's office. The faceless man killed over fifteen people to get to Lord Riverbank, that just shows how serious he is about what he wants. Mister Joseph is sitting in the living room too and his wife is beside him. She is crying into her handkerchief and her shoulders are shaking.

Duke and Melody are in the living room, watching the television. They have had very little to do and so they are passing time by watching an episode of why women kill. Melody feels like the couch isn't comfortable enough for her and so what she does is put herself over him so that he holds her like she is a baby. They are like that when they hear a knock on the door and they turn to each other. " Are you expecting someone?" She asks. " I never expect anyone, are you?""No." She shakes her head negatively. " Let me get it. " She stands up and he walks to the door. Logan is looking at the front yard covered with well-mowed grasses and turns back to the door. He takes a step back when he sees that it's Duke who has answered the door. " Hi. " Duke's voice is cheerful and he has a beautiful smile on his face. " How can I help you?"Confusion sweeps Logan's face as he tilts his head to the side. He can't understand why the guy who came to his office and threatened to kill him is all

She watches her mother's mouth move as she tries to get the words out, but it doesn't work. Her mother, still stammering, walks to the cooking pot and turns off the heat. Melody ignores her and continues to chop up her tomatoes, but this time around, she does them impetuously, in irregular sizes and when she is done, she dumps everything into a bowl and washes her hands in the sink. She turns to leave the kitchen, but her mother grabs her arm, stopping her. " Melody, what do you mean your debts were cleared?" Her voice is low, subdued. " How? When? By who? Duke?"Melody is so irritated that she shrugs her mother off and takes a step away from her. " You've said it already. Duke is a church rat and we don't have millions of dollars sitting in an account. " She fires. " Does it even matter? The thing is that I am not a debtor anymore and I am fucking happy about it. " " Who did it?" " The kind owner of Russell Bank, and he has become an investor who has invested twenty million do
