‘I’m not to be trusted, Adeline. I’ll ruin you’
He allowed the weed to fall down from his lips, and immediately the roll hit the ground, he drove his fist into Corey’s statue, shattering it to pieces with his punch.
The clay pieces flew across the room, hitting every available surface.
He closed his eyes, letting out hot breaths from his nostrils as his chest rose and fell harshly.
‘I ruin everything I touch, and that’s why no one chooses me. No one ever choses me’
He opened his eyes and released a exaggerated breath, checking out his knuckles which got bursted and is currently bleeding cos of the punch.
He looked at his shot arm which is still untreated, and he returned to the bedroom where Adeline is still sleeping peacefully in bed.
She has changed her sleeping position, and her chest bandage is currently open, revealing a large part of her breasts.
He stayed beside the bed, the red light making his shadow mysterious as his eyes followed the swell of her breasts.
He stared at it for over a minute too long before pulling the duvet to cover her, then he left the bedside and started looking for something.
He found it shortly and left the room, going back to the workroom.
He took his seat and opened what he took in the room.
It’s the balm container… The one Adeline brought the other time.
He started applying it on his knuckle, staring at Corey’s broken image as he did.
He has to remould that before daybreak.
Otherwise, someone won’t like it.

CLAN KITCHEN*
Almost every of the mobster ate dinner already, and as they returned the plates to the kitchen, Lady Selesta washed in the zinc bowl.
It’s a lot of work, but it’s like she was born for this.
She’s used to it.
Angelika sat on the kitchen island, playing with her bunch of sunflowers while humming a song.
Lady Selesta looked back at her and smiled.
“Do you want candy?” She asked.
“Yes!!” Angelika squealed.
“And here it is!” Jinx came into the kitchen with Poe.
“Jinx!” Angelika gasped, and Jinx chuckled before hugging her.
“You didn’t tell me Angelika is back” she said.
“The school academic session came to an end yesterday. Her boarding house nanny brought her not long ago” Lady Selesta replied.
Poe just stood by the door, watching them with a scowl of disgust on her face.
“Aww, I missed you! And I bought you a lot of candies when you were in school. I’ll come with the pack tomorrow ” Jinx said, stroking her cheeks.
“I can’t wait” Angelika smiled out her dimples.
“Meet me outside when you’re done” Poe said, going out immediately.
“I can never like that one” Lady Selesta said with a sour face.
“Poe is cool, she’s just not used to people ” Jinx replied.
“As if” Lady Selesta rolled eyes, and Jinx smiled.
“I’ll see you tomorrow Angel. Goodnight!”
“Bye!” Angelika waved, and Jinx left too.
“To be honest, I don’t like Poe too. She looks wicked” Angelika said.
“I know, right?” Lady Selesta replied.
“Also, I think there are more females in the clan than everyone thinks” Angelika said, and Selesta faced her immediately.
“What do you mean?”
Angelika smiled. “It’s a secret, and she’s pretty” she said.
“You’re not serious” Selesta shook her head, returning to the dishes.
*
JINX AND POE’S ROOM*
“What was that in the kitchen?” Jinx queried immediately she got in with Poe.
“What do you mean?” Poe returned it.
“You walking out and not saying anything to Lady Selesta or Angelika” Jinx retorted.
“Have I ever cared about anyone except you and Master? Why are you acting like it’s new” Poe glared
“Poe…
“Listen… For one, I don’t like Lady Selesta or whatever. For two, I don’t like the Angelika kid cos she’s a kid, I hate kids!” Poe snapped.
“You changed drastically” Jinx muttered, and Poe released a breath.
“Especially since Micheal got in here. This is not the Poe I knew back then.” Jinx shook her head.
“Get used to it, Jinx… you’ll be fine” Poe smiled then entered the bathroom.
Jinx continued standing there, eventually sighing out before falling on the bed.
“I just hope Loud is fine” she muttered.

MAYA’S SUITE*
Maya was already asleep when the alarm came at the door.
“Who the hell is that this late?” She muttered, leaving the bedroom.
Her long hair fell on her back as she walked to the main door in her white nightie.
She checked the camera before opening the door…
Trixie and Sin stepped in.
“What are you both partners in crime doing here?” Maya questioned.
“We’re taking you out to the club” Sin said flatly.
“Are you both out of your damn minds?” Maya looked from one to the other.
“Staying in here all day and night and hurting yourself in the middle of your burning candles will only make you age quickly. Let’s go clubbing! I’ll chose the outfit” Trixie winked, rushing into the closet.
“I’m going nowhere” Maya crossed her arms, taking her seat on the couch before crossing her legs too.
“We’ll see about that” Sin replied, smiling trickily.
“Sick boy” Maya mumbled, and Trixie finally came out with a gown, a belt and gladiators.
“I’m not wearing those” Maya said.
“Did you forget the club is in this compound? Not like we’re driving” Sin replied.
“I said I’m not going!!” Maya yelled, and the two juniors exchanged glances.
They came for her at once and started trying to pull her up from the couch, but she held the couch tightly, refusing to let go.
“You’ll go” Sin said.
“I’m not going” she replied, holding the couch tighter.
“You’re going” Trixie added, pulling her leg.
“Little bรฎtch let me go!” Maya yelled, but the two successfully pulled her away after a lot of struggles.
Trixie literally forced her to wear the outfit and shoes, and twenty minutes later, they left for the club.
The clan clubhouse is right beside the abandoned basement, and as they walked past the basement, Maya couldn’t stop staring at it, imagining Madden inside the basement, locking himself away from the world just the way she locks herself in her room.
They finally entered the booming clubhouse with several mobsters who’re having fun.
The smell of sex and arousal filled the building, indicating the amount of sin going on around the corners.
“I’ll stay here, get me a bottle of bourbon” Maya said, taking her seat beside a wall.
“Copy that” Sin said, leaving with Trixie.
They went to the bar, and every mobster there cleared immediately, leaving the space for them.
“A bottle of bourbon, two bottles of tequila” Trixie said.
“Yes miss” the bartender replied respectfully, and as he got their drinks, Sin noticed the eyes of almost every guy around on her.
He slowly slid to her back, covering her with himself from everyone else.
Trixie looked back when she felt his presence, and she smiled to herself.

IGOR’S SUITE*
Igor returned to the suite just now after having a lot of talk with Erik at the house of Orlovs.
He’s so full of expectations for tomorrow cos obviously, tomorrow will be another disappointment for Madden, and he can’t wait.
He had plans to sleep immediately, but then Andrei came in, marring the plan.
“I don’t wanna talk, you’re wounded so you should be asleep right now” Igor said.
Andrei walked to him anyways.
“You really aren’t behind the mission attack?” He asked.
“You heard when mother said it herself that the black bullets were a coincidence! By tomorrow, you’ll know the truth so go to bed, Andrei”
“When are you gonna tell me about your family history then? Why is everyone of you pretending to love each other when you actually don’t like each other, even The Pakhan and godmother Klara” Andrei said.
“You mean to say… Why is everyone pretending to love Madden when they don’t like him?” Igor grinned, and Andrei raised his brows.
Igor grabbed his shoulder tightly, holding eyes with him…
“My family is like a cinema show. Madden thinks he’s the main character, but he’s not, cos he’s gonna die even before we get to the middle of this show, and I’ll take my position as the main character” Igor said.
“I still don’t follow” Andrei said.
“Just calm down and continue watching, and by the way Micheal will be joining you soon.” Igor replied, entering his bedroom.
Andrei’s confusion grew even worse.
“Michael?” He muttered.
*
MANOR*
“Do you like it?” Corey asked as he fed Adeline with chopsticks in front of a Korean restaurant in Colorado.
They’re currently on their first date, and Adeline couldn’t even ask for more.
It’s been a week since they started dating, and Corey has been behaving like a godsent angel.
He pumps her account with money, buys her things she doesn’t even ask for. He even met her parents already, and he never asked for sex.
That even made her trust him more, then his extra-caring attitude.
She chewed slowly on the tteokbokki before nodding.
“Mmm!” She moaned.
“It’s so good. Spicy but good!” She nodded, and Corey stretched his hand to her lips, wiping the sauce with his thumb then licking the thumb.
Adeline felt the flip in her stomach immediately, tripping harder.
“I’ll feed you too” she took the chopsticks, feeding him some.
While doing that, a couple came out of a bus across the road, each holding the hands of their two kids.
“So how many kids should we have in the future?” Corey suddenly asked, and she turned back to him.
“Eh?”
“Yeah… How many kids?” He asked, coming to sit beside her.
“A boy and a girl?” She replied wholeheartedly.
“Two boys” he argued.
“No a boy and a girl!” Adeline argued back.
“A boy and a girl!” She frowned, and he started laughing.
The echo of his laughter resounded over and over in Adeline’s ear, and that woke her up with a jerk.
It’s a dream of her past with Corey, and immediately she sat up in bed, she started laughing at her own silliness.
“A boy and a girl? Two boys? Oh Adeline you were very stupid” she held her forehead, laughing till water came out of her eyes.
“Gawd … He must have laughed so hard when he got home that day” she sniffled, but then she noticed her surroundings.
The cold, the mirror walls, red lights, snowy smell…
She’s still in Madden’s bedroom?
She must have slept off, shit!
She quickly got down from the bed and retied her chest bandage before putting on the shirt which already smells like blood.
She rushed out of the room, but she immediately came face to face with Madden himself.
She came to a screeching halt before she’d bump into him, then she stepped back and took a better look at him.
He’s shirtless, and his tattoos are on display right now.
None of his tattoos are friendly__There’s a viper snake, a ghost face, a knot, a gun, smokes coming out of a mouth.
Among everything, his cross necklace sat poignantly on his chest, and then the scar on his chin…
She looked at his hands, they’re soiled with clay.
“Are you…a potter?” She asked, finally looking at his eyes.
“Finally decided to speak after checking me out for two minutes straight?” He replied
“I wasn’t checking you out, just wondering why you have so many tattoos are they’re all dangerous. Aren’t I allowed to get curious about my master?” She said, and he came closer, making her step back.
Her back hit the wall slowly, their eyes not leaving each other for once as his body caged her in.
He rested his right hand on the wall above her, staining it with clay, then he raised the second hand to her chin, raising it with the curve of his pointer finger.
Adeline kept up the eye-to-eye game as his eyes settled on her freckles, then they wandered to her cheek.
There’s a scar there just like the one on his chin.
It’s the scar he gave her on her first day here when he threw the blade at her.
He smirked, unable to look away from it as his cold breaths fanned her face.
“Masterpiece” he muttered, finally letting go.
“Are you really a potter?” She asked again.
“Isn’t there enough evidence right now?” He raised his two hands, and she smiled slightly.
“I’m sorry for dozing off in your bed, and thanks for treating my wound” she said.
“Didn’t treat it for you, I did it for the clan. If you die from the wound infection, it’d be a loss to the clan. We lost enough already” he replied, entering his bedroom.
“Such a cold @ss man” she mumbled, leaving the manor.
As she walked down, she got a new mail on her phone.
She brought out her phone and checked it out…
It’s from the house of Orlovs… Her mission is set tomorrow.
She has to kill a man in the second district, and she got all his information already.
She sighed, returning the phone.
Should she go back into the manor and tell Madden?
That’d mean she defied The Pakhan, and what if he kills her like he promised?
She shook it off and went down the mountain, going back into the compound, straight to her room.
“Where have you been Micheal?” Loud asked when she stepped in.
He’s sitting on Nikolai’s bed, looking forlon, but he’s better than before.
“Master treated my wound, and i slept off. I’m sorry for leaving you all alone dude” she replied, sitting with him.
“It’s fine, I knew the wound would make you tired. And Death treated you? That’s new” He dryly smiled.
Adeline pulled his head to her shoulder, and he smiled again.
“Only girls do this”
“I don’t care” Adeline replied, and silence enveloped them as they both revelled in Nikolai’s absence.
“The Pakhan wants to send me on a mission tomorrow, Loud. He told me to be secretive about it and not tell my master. I’m confused and I dunno what to do” she spoke up.
“Everyone in that family is cunning, including Death himself. They only use and dispose people, so none of them is to be trusted, even Death himself. He’s the most manipulative. Just do what your mind tells you” Loud replied.
“Thank you” she smiled.
