24: Why is He Here
Elena’s POV (Present time)
“There is a case I want you to investigate,” Mistress Hera said which confused me. Did I even hear her right?“Investigate, Mistress? I don’t think that is what our guild does.” We are not law enforcers for pete’s sake. We are assassins who kill for a living.“This is a special mission. I also think this is somewhat related to the Black Phantom Guild that’s why I need you to investigate it.”Black Phantom Guild is our guild’s mortal enemy ever since. If what we do is only hunt the enemies of our patrons, they also offer more services such us smuggling and other illegal actions apart from killing. I’m not saying that we are more clean than them because we only kill, but it’s just, what they do is so much beyond the line. I don’t care about what they do alright. I don’t care if they kill, smuggle or do whatsoever things, but there were times before that they provoked us in certain instances. That’s why apart frRelated chapters
The Assassin and The Alpha 25: One Last Look
“Elena,” Rage uttered, his lips were parted and I figured he had so much to say. I could see it through his eyes. Though the next moment he became serious, anger filled his eyes and I didn’t understand. Is it because I left him? Is it because I refused to accept the feelings I have for him? But the way he looked at me made me feel that he’s coming from somewhere deep, which I don’t understand.“Oh, the alpha of Raven, right?” Henry spoke casually. Rage looked at him for a moment but his eyes quickly drifted back to me. He didn’t answer, probably because he must have known that Henry was already sure of what’s the answer but he only wants confirmation.I stopped stepping on the man who ruined my mood and went to pick up my sword.“Let’s go,” I said to Henry before jumping off the window.I thought it was Henry who followed me down the alley but I soon realize I was wrong. It was Rage.
The Assassin and The Alpha 26: Beautiful Reborn Flower
Rage was arrested because he killed the king. He killed him when he knew that the king was the one who gave an order to the house of spades to kill his parents. After three days, he was executed in public. Elena didn’t do anything because until the last moment, she believed that there was no use in having him in her life, and that it would be better if Rage will vanish. But as soon as she saw him right before her, the regret and sorrow filled her once hollow chest.She just watched him die.She just let him die. The man she loves.“If we will be born again, I will fall in love with him again. This time, I will make sure that I won’t do anything that I will regret,” she vowed before she let the enemies kill her.True enough, after about a century, both Rage and Elena were reborn as normal humans in a different world, in a world less cruel than what they lived in before. Although they are living the lives far different from what they
The Assassin and The Alpha 27: Annoying Knight
Five years ago…"Why the noise in the living room? What's up?" I asked a maid walking in the hallway. I no longer bothered to blow dry my hair after bathing so it was still a bit wet."Sir Revo's friends came. Your two cousins are also there. They are at the dinner table, ma’am.”I sighed and nodded. She proceeded with her work while I stepped down on the staircase.No wonder the house is noisy again. After all, the mansion would not be noisy without the older brother's group. I was eight years old when I first met his friends, aside from our cousins, Sage and Markus. So I got used to it for five years.I went straight to the dining area where they were all. They are laughing and talking loudly. I snorted. Noisy boys."Morning, Elena!" I glanced at Markus. He also immediately looked back at the talking friends."Yeah bro, Christine is a catch!""Her boobs are small.""Come on Sage, it will develop so
The Assassin and The Alpha 28: Not Allowed
A series of knocks grabbed my attention. I was too lazy to get up from lying down when I heard the voice of a housemate."Miss Elena, Sir Rage is asking you to go down. Dinner is ready," she said.I winced, not wanting to leave the room after what happened earlier. I'm still disgusted. Irritated with Rage. If he hadn’t been carrying some woman that wouldn’t have happened. But who am I to decide, anyway? I just make a living. But even that. He should have picked girls who have better etiquettes."Tell him I will eat later."They don't have Aunt Laura so it's okay not to go along. She's busy with her husband on some business stuffs.The maid didn't insist and just go back downstairs. I have no appetite. My scalp still hurts to this day. Damn that girl. I really hope he doesn’t go here anymore. Because if he comes back, I won't be bathing him with a sprinkler but a hose. Annoying.I jumped out of my bed. I went to the front of
The Assassin and The Alpha 29: Favor to Ask
"What?" I asked Neri when she pulled me. Markus moved slightly away from us. He’s now talking with other women. "Hm, a handsome guy is watching you," she said and grinned. She nodded towards one direction. I saw a man on the pool. Just like what she said, a handsome one. I smirked. Well... not bad for a sight. "Isn't he handsome?" She first handed the cocktail glass to me and removed her sandals and sat on the edge of the pool. Let the water wet the feet. I did the same and stood beside him. "Yup. Your type?" She took a sip on her cocktail. She grinned and shook his head. "I just find him hot. Other than that, I don't have any plan on going out with him. I mean..." She snorted. "You know, there seems to be something missing." I laughed. "You, what's your type? Um, the sporty? Like basketball players? Academic achievers? Nerdy type? Business-minded like sons of tycoons? You can also be in line with the career you want to match.

"On Sunday, my brother and his friends will go to El Fuego. They will look at our farm there and take a walk as well. I said we will come. Invite Jesyl," I told Neri when I learned of their brother's walk over the weekend.Usually, I don't go with them. But since I have to walk Jesyl to Rage, this is a big opportunity for them to know each other."Alright, Elena. I'll tell her. Thank you really," he said. Big smile.I blinked."Treat me to lunch the whole semester.""I thought you weren't begging?""Because I can't think of anything else so that's all you have to do. I can still save an allowance. I am just being frugal.”"Frugal?" she asked like she doesn't know that word. "You still know that word? You're even richer than us. If you can speak it, you'll think you're suffering."I didn't speak and just thought about what to do to to reconcile Rage and Jesyl. But I think it wouldn't be hard considering that she has the lo
The Assassin and The Alpha 31: Sealed With A Kiss
We went to the border of El Fuego where a tall lighthouse stood. We stood near the long cliff, watching the wild waves rule the sea below. Aside from the plantation and neighboring lands, this part was my favorite place to visit back thenThe salty air is so damn refreshing, even the place is just naturally beautiful and tranquil. A place where you can feel comfort and peace. Indeed, nature will always be the most beautiful creation."Oh, beers." Carson distributed the canned beers. He was the one who brought the drinks. Sage is in charge of the food."It's yours," he said and handed me a carbonated drink.We sat on the grass. I was next to Neri while Rage was on the other side of me. I don't know why he sat next to me. I don't want to be rude so I just remained on my position. Jesyl, on the other hand, is sitting beside him. Trying so hard to be noticed. But if before it was still answering, now it is not really."Elena," Neri whispered. "Rage see
The Assassin and The Alpha 32: Dangerous Love
"What, Elena?!" Neri was hysterical when I told her that I agreed to Rage’s offer. At the strength of his shout a few people looked at our behavior inside the restaurant we were eating at"Lower your voice.""You don't have to do that!" She slapped his forehead."We both know what kind of men your brother's friends are! And yet, you sacrificed yourself? You, bitch! Are you out of your mind?""I did it for you. So, just shut up and enjoy the benefits. So you must win the competition. Make sure of it. That's the least you can do.""No. Back off on that deal, Elena. I just want you to ask her but I won't allow it that way. That's too much!"I sighed."It's really fine, Neri. Do you think I'll be shaken by that playboy Rage? I've known him over a decade. He won't affect me, I tell you. This is a big opportunity for you. So improve now only in the club for you to be chosen. "She sighed heavily and tapped the glass of juice wi
