2 days later...
"What the fuck do you mean we have nothing!?" I seethed in anger on the thought of a girl tricking all my team and managing to steal the Dresden green diamond.
"Apart from her blonde hairs and brown eyes." Crystal interrupted.
"We have her face in cctv footage. But it doesn't matches with any result. It's like she never existed." Shawn explained and I couldn't help the feeling of wrath consuming me on the thought of a girl tricking us.
"She looks hot." Logan's voice reached our ears when he was eyeing the girl in the cctv footage like a fucking creep.
Crystal and I rolled our eyes while Shawn face palmed on how Logan's mind works. Sometimes I wonder how even is he the best thief.
"I need that fucking diamond, Shawn." I demanded with my clenched fists and Shawn answered with three words, "On it, boss." After his answer, I walked out off the room.
I was on my way to my room when my phone rang showing my little sister Aleeza's caller id. Taking a deep breath I picked up the call.
"Where are you?" Was how I got greeted and I couldn't help but roll my eyes on her rude voice.
"Hello to you too." I said forcing a smile on my face, my voice laced with sarcasm.
"In the mansion, right now." And with that she hung up on me leaving me surprised. She is the sweetest person in our family and if she is pissed then you are screwed because when you are dealing with pissed princess, you are dealing with princess's father too.
I sighed and mentally prepared myself for whatever has to come in my way today after two days of constantly taking my anger out on every single damn living thing.
The mansion is at a 4-5 minutes of walking distance from the penthouse. My parents with Aleeza lives there. Aleeza has nothing to do with the world her both brother lives in. People even call her angel in hell. Because of her living with most dangerous criminal and still maintaining her angelic side.
When I walked in, Aleeza was already waiting for me sitting at the couch in the hall. Luckily, there was no dad for now.
"Hello Zee." I greeted with the most brightest smile I could. I wouldn't let her know how I was being a fucking psycho from last two days.
"So, you act?" She asked cocking her eyebrow at me maintaining her serious face.
"What do you mean?" I acted dumb just to get out of here. I don't need another lecture on how I should control my anger and how it is harmful for me and people around me.
"Drop it, Nic. I know how you've been acting like a stupid psycho the whole two days." She sighed dropping her serious looks. Even though she is the youngest of all she worries the most for us.
"A girl stole the fucking rarest green diamond from us, Zee. How else do you want me to react on it!?" I snapped and I regretted it immediately the next second as I noticed the disappointment on her face.
"Okay, I am sorry." I apologized with my whole heart because if there is anything I love with my whole heart even after being called heartless by the whole world, that is my family.
"It's alright." She mumbled and I couldn't stop help but feel like a complete asshole.
After a few second I nodded and decided to meet mom when I am here, as I walked only a few steps when a women with black hairs bumped into me.
"Oh shit, I am sorry." She said shocked as if bumping into someone is a dangerous sin. But, before I could say something in response she spoke again, "I didn't see you. I am Zyra." She said introducing herself.
"Nicolas." I returned the introduction with my hands crossed against my chest. I knew what she was playing at but I wanted to know that how far is she going stretch this little game of hers, specially with me.
It's either she don't know me or she is overestimating herself and her skills. But either way, I played along.
"It was nice meeting you." With that she turned around ready to walk away with my wallet.
Taking the gun out of my waistband I aimed it at the back of her head stopping her mid way, "I believe you've something that belongs to me."
She didn't wasted another second before taking out the gun she was hiding under her shirt and pointed it at my head as she said, "Well, two can play the game."
Both of us were standing with our guns pointed at each other's head. One wrong move and the guns fire. But the thing that was surprising to me was the way the women in front of me held her ground and looked right into my eyes without even a hint of fear on her face.
Her black hairs falling down her waist and green eyes focused on the aim that is me. I've never met a girl as fearless as her.
"OH MY GOD!" The loud voice coming from behind startled me and I knew to whom this lovely voice belongs to.
But before anyone from both of us could react another unfamiliar loud voice reached my ears, "WHAT THE FUCK!"
The second voice came from behind the green eyed woman, I can see her mid length brown hairs plus the look of horror on her face as if she just witnessed a ghost.
Even though there were two other people now standing at our head, we still refused to take our guns off our aim point that is each other's head.
She would rather walk alone then follow someone else's shadow. -R.G. Moon | Z Y R A | "PUT THE GUNS DOWN!" Aleeza yelled for the second time and I took his stupid wallet out of my pocket, throwing it at his face but he managed to catch it. "Go to hell." I cursed and turned around walking away from him. He is a stupid grey eyed human who happens to piss me off at our first meeting, not technically though. "Okay, am I hallucinating?" Flora's voice fell in my ears and I knew what was going on in her mind. "No. He is really here." I confirmed and the color drained from her face and the look of shock took over. "I th-" Flora stopped mid sentence when Aleeza showed up with her brother beside her. He has his arms resting inside his pocket as he eyed me with a look of amusement. "Girls, he is my brother." Aleeza introduced and
She is the perfect amound of chaos and peace. -r.h. Sin. | Z Y R A | "Your lips look lonely would they like to meet mine?" The fuck. I turned around to look at the owner of the voice only to come face to face with the manwhore of the team. Logan Walker. "Ex-fucking-cuse me?" I was already pissed after dealing with two assholes today and god just keeps adding in it. "Are you a light switch cause you turn me on." He winked at me, still keeping his stupid pick up lines. I take he is not good in reading obvious facial expressions. "This pick up line expired ages ago with your brain." I replied with a straight face. In response his lips only tugged upward when he smirked, "Feisty, just my type." The fuck is wrong with these people today! "Say another word and my fist would do the talking." I warned my arms crossed against my chest and my one brow raised, challenging him. Surprisingly, h
'We just want the world to love usfor the little monsters that we are.' -Atticus. |N I C O L A S|"She haven't sold the diamond in the market yet." Crystal informed me as if it was supposed to ease my anger, anyhow.It's been one week since we've been working like crazy on one single girl sho managed to trick all of us. She is fucking incredible at her job, I'll give her that."She is so damn hot!" Logan gushed walking inside the room with a man whore smirk plastered on his face.Everyone in the room, including me, looked at him as if he needs his head to be examined and honestly he really does."What are you talking about?" Shawn queried, his eyes narrowed in confusion while I and Crystal waited for him to answer Shawn's question. Even though we know Logan finds anything with boobs hot."Zyra." And when her name escaped his lips I couldn't help the grinding of my teeth and clenching of my fists. She has be
She never cared for the crown. She preferred a sword. -r.h. Sin|Z Y R A|Long story short, the mission ,yesterday, went more wrong than expected.So, here I am surrounded by Russo's and their friends to get treated by their family doctor because my stubborn ass refused to visit doctor when Flora suggested.And, Aleeza doesn't suggest. She orders. That's how I ended up here. But now looking at the cocky smirk plastered on that asshole face of his, I can't help but regret giving in to Aleeza.Aleeza, Crystal and Flora went to bring some bandage to wrap around to stop the bleeding and I took it as my chance to put my mask down but Nicolas Fucking Russo took me off guard with his words."And, here I thought you were brave enough." His teasing voice fell in my ear and when I looked up, I found him leaning against the door frame, flexing his muscular arms closed against his chest as his eyes pierced into mine.I don't know what's it about him but h
"Warming my hands on the bridges I've burnt." -Atticus |N I C O L A S|"Stabbing wound?" I questioned my voice laced with curiosity as I joined everyone."Yes, it's a knife stab." Noah informed me and I couldn't help but frown. And, my frown was directed to the green eyed woman seated at a fair distance.Everyone in the room directed their attention towards her, waiting for her to explain. Is she suicidal?"I-" She started but soon came to an halt when Flora spoke, "When she tripped and fall, there was a knife on the floor." She finished, quickly."So, you are bleeding because of a fucking knife?" Aleeza shrieked out of no where forcing Noah to flinch, reluctantly."Seems like it." Zyra muttered avoiding looking into her eyes which didn't settled well with me. She never do this, especially, not with me.Noah examined her injury and cleaned it before wrapping a bandage around it so it doesn't get infected. C
There is no worse evil than a bad woman; and nothing has ever been produced better than a good one. -Euripides |Z Y R A|"That was close." Flora sighed as she plopped down on the soft couch.I put the book down when she spoke. Even though she didn't mentioned anything but I know what she is talking about. The whole stabbing wound thing that happened in the Russo penthouse.Honestly, it was pretty fucking close."But you lied, smoothly." I said, appreciating her for her presence of mind because for once I though I really lost it. My mind."It just slipped." Flora shrugged as if it is no big deal which makes me wonder that if she really is such a good liar how many times has she lied to me?"Does that make you a liar, Flo?" I wiggled my eyebrows at her, teasingly. Because there are a few things Flora hate being called. One of them happen to be the word liar. Even though she knows that we are."I would like to
He was a warrior, with a fighters mind,And she was a battle, he lost everytime. -c.l. |N I C O L A S| "When is it?" I questioned Shawn who was still sitting in front of the computer. I wonder how come he haven't gone blind till now. "Tomorrow evening." He answered, simply, his eyes focused on the screen as he typed some random symbols which I can't even fucking name. "You sure, she will be there?" Crystal asked him. Which somehow reminds me of their secret hidden relationship. I haven't confronted them about it yet. And, I am not even going to talk to two pf my teammates about their forbidden love and all that shit. If they want me to to know I would know. Till then, I don't know. Period. "I am sure she didn't stole the diamond to drool over it." Logan asserted, munching on the green apple in his hands. He eats like a pig. But if we ignore the sound of him munching on apple so loudly and think about his statement. He mi
She was so terrifying when she was angry, even the devil shuddered with fear. -Unknown|Z Y R A|Logan lost.It didn't took Flora long to learn that he is a lost cause when he is fighting with a girl. All Flora had to do was divert his mind from her movements to her and boom.Logan lost.It is now turn for Shawn to enter the game. Shawn is a dangerous fighter. So, I worry for Flora. I am 99 percent positive that she is gonna loose. Because her hands works better on computer programme than on an human being."3..2..1" Aleeza counted excitedly munching on popcorns while enjoying the show.Fighting is something Aleeza would rather watch than do. Probably, because she have always stay away from her family's business. But she is enjoying the game, anyways.From the corner of my eye, I watch Nicolas whose eyes were already focused on me. I thought to immediately take my eyes off him. But something stopped me. Everything inside me stopped me.H
