Hunter's Revenge 27. Heads Will Roll
...Hunter POV...I hung up the phone on Ace as I started to question why Sienna had shown up all of a sudden. Was she looking for me? Or was she just looking for trouble? How did she even get into the club in the first place? Ever since her first appearance, I had increased security, making it impossible for anyone to enter the premise I hadn't approved of first. Any unknown people were immediately turned away. That even included significant others or dates of those that regularly frequented the club. So if she managed to get in unseen, she must've found another way in. I sat in silence as I pondered that idea for a moment. Javier knocking on my door took me out of my thoughts."¿Que es, Gonzalez?" What is it, Gonzalez? I asked."Pensé que podría estar interesado en esto." I thought you might be interested in this. Javier remarks, handing me a tablet.I furrow my brows but reach out for the tablet. It seems to be a digital newspaper about a famous painting. "¿Qué significa esto?" Wh
Hunter's Revenge 28. Feelings
...Hunter POV...Javier left my office as my phone began to ring once more. I look at the caller ID and immediately frown as I see Ace's number appear. I roll my eyes and huff in annoyance before accepting his call."You better have good news." I state, getting straight to the point. "Well, it's not all bad news. He remarks. I sigh into the phone, mentally preparing myself for what I'm about to hear."I hope for your sake that you're not calling because she's hurt." I state matter-of-factly."No. Actually, she won the fight. Even complained at me because she found her opponent to be weak." Ace remarks, making me laugh."Well, she's not wrong. The men are pretty pathetic. I don't know where you found them, but you need to get better ones." I state, mentally applauding her. I found myself smiling as I pictured her knocking her opponent out and then yelling at Ace for the lack of competition she experienced. The entire situation was comical enough that I found myself holding back a laug
Hunter's Revenge 29. Late Night Hustle
...Sienna POV...I went home frustrated. I really don't know what I was expecting, but I guess I was hoping to see the Reaper when I was there. I can't explain my inner desire to cross paths with him again. He had this sort of aura that I found myself drawn to. The only place I knew where to find him was at the fight club. So to find out from Ace that it was unlikely to see him again, I felt a bit deflated. However, a thought came to mind. Something Ace had said began to ring loud in my mind. If I can't find the Reaper myself, then I'll have him come to me. From what I did know, the Reaper owned the fight club, and Ace seemed to be the one that managed it. But what would draw the Reaper out? I began to pace my room when it suddenly dawned on me. I would smoke him out. I was certain that Ace would've already told the Reaper of my sudden appearance. Any security breach like that would warrant a call to the boss. So what if there were a few more isolated events?I surpassed a laugh as
Hunter's Revenge 30. Goliath
"Care to explain where you were?" Zander asks, getting straight to the point."I don't know what you mean." I state, hoping to end this conversation. I walk over to my dresser, grab a pair of pyjamas, and put the shirt on over my towel. I then pull the pants up from under my towel. Once I'm fully clothed, I pull the towel away and walk back to my bathroom to hang it up."Sienna. Stop. We're being serious. Where were you?" Kieran asks, walking over to me."I don't have to tell you anything." I state a bit too firmly. I didn't realize how much the Reaper's lack of appearance had gotten to me. I was taking my frustrations out on my brothers, and they didn't deserve that."You're right. You don't have to tell us. We just wish you would. We just want what's best for you." Zander replies, coming over to sit down next to me. I look him in the eye and see the concern coming from him. I look away, unable to stay under his gaze. I can see he truly means well, but the more I look at him, the gui
Hunter's Revenge 31. Firecracker
...ACE POV...I was beyond frustrated. I had spent the entire day setting up the new security system Hunter had requested. I was a boxer, not a tech nerd. I didn't know a single thing about any of this. But Hunter wanted it, so I had no choice but to oblige. This is why I spent the day verifying their qualifications while also performing background checks and security checks on each member assigned to set up the system. We couldn't have just anyone enter the premises. It was a paperwork nightmare that Hunter had so kindly slapped me with. I knew he was getting back at me for Sienna. He was pissed that she had managed to enter the premises without him knowing. But mostly, I think he was worried about her. He never confirmed it, but he neither denied it. It was clear as day that he took a liking to her. No one else would ever get away with challenging him and live to tell the tale. I had to admit, I was upset, as I had set my eyes on Sienna first. I had hoped that I could work on getti
Hunter's Revenge 32. Waiting Game
...HUNTER POV...The plane had just landed in New York when I got the call from Ace."Ace, what is it now? Do you know what time it is?" I ask, annoyed that he's calling me right now.It had only been a few hours since we last talked, and everything was going well. He was going on about the new top-of-the-line security system he had installed. We would know right away if someone tried to enter without authorization."I just want it on the record that I did everything I could and don't want to die." Ace started, making me even more annoyed."Whether you live or die is yet to be determined. I better not hear something I won't like." I say, knowing he would understand the underlying threat. When the line remains silent, I curse myself knowing that whatever Ace has to say is going to be nothing but bad news."Spit it out. I don't have all night. What happened?" I ask, demanding answers."It was Sienna." Ace began, making the storm inside me increase in fortitude."What about her?" I grit
Hunter's Revenge 33. KO
...Sienna POV...Just like the night before, I found myself fighting against the twins. In just a short few days, I had already improved. I found myself better at anticipating their movements while also learning how to apply more impact to each of my punches. This time I was fighting Zander as Kieran watched over us, commenting on areas of improvement. I found myself excited for tonight. Even though the fighters were all sub-par at best, I enjoyed the challenge. I wasn't familiar with their fighting styles, so it felt more real than sparring against my brothers. They had trained me, so I knew how they moved. But with a stranger, their moves were unique to them. Going against them helped me to become a better fighter, as I was getting good at learning each of their styles. I mostly found that tactical skill was never their forte. Rather, they all seemed to use strength as their weapon. While this wasn't a bad thing, it wasn't a good thing either, as it meant that, like my fight agains
Hunter's Revenge 34. Battle Royale
I parked in the same place as last night. I grabbed my tablet, looking over the surveillance footage. I had set up a hack last night when I was here, so I could easily get in tonight. I knew I couldn't play around with the power, so instead, I decided to be a bit more creative. I could see from the feeds that there were a lot more security guards here tonight. Ace really upped his game. Too bad for him that security is my family name, so there was no such thing as an unbeatable system. I hope Hunter doesn't take out his aggression on Ace. He really is a good guy. In a way, he reminds me of the fun uncle. The family member that tries hard to never have to discipline anyone while being the one we all go to when we want to do something fun. So seeing him being all commanding and authoritative only puts a smile on my face. I know he's trying hard. It just doesn't work on me.I grab some footage from the internet of someone trying to break into a building. I then edited the footage to make
