Lord Smith had a blank look on his face as he watch Ethan struggled for air. He saw the blood dripping out from him as he laid with his chest facing the ground and finally the boy stopped moving.

“Clear the body” Lord Smith ordered and turn to walk away, Annabelle followed.

Getting to the office, Lord Smith sat on his chair.

“Why did we kill him?” Annabelle asked lightly. In secret, she clinched her fist tight.

“Well, he is an obstruction, he is doing this because of his father. I’m proud of you Doll” He said.

“Can I call you Father?” The girl asked all of a sudden and Lord Smith for a moment fell into a trance before looking up to her.

“Why did you say so?” The man asked having some emotion swirling inside him.

“You said you saved me from those monsters who killed my parents. You bought me in and made me strong whilst treating me like your daughter..” she began to walk towards him.

“I want to call you Father, sir.. would that be possible?” She asked and stopped when she was close enough.

“Hm, Doll. You always seem to surprise me” Lord Smithe lips stretched up the more. “fine you can call me Father” Lord Smith.

Annabelle bow her head a little. “Thank you father” she then leave.

“I need to take care of something, I’ll be right back. Watch the clan” Lord Smith said and left with his assistant.

“It’s alright Jennifer” Selene assured the girl resting her head on her shoulder. Jennifer’s dad is sleeping already since it’s a bit late.

“No it’s not” Jennifer replied in a hoarse voice. “I was selfish. I didn’t even think of what might happen to Annabelle if I had snitched. I just wanted everything to return back to the way it was”

“It’s not your fault Jennie. I would have done the same” Selene muttered and Jennifer looked up at her. “If I were in your shoes, I would have done anything to protect my love ones, even if it hurts them” She repeated and Jennifer finally let out a smile.

“Thanks” Jennifer muttered.

Down the room, the door entrance opened and Peter walked in with a black jacket and a black trouser.

Liam stood up from his seat, his face worried. “I’ve been trying to reach Ethan but nothing. Do you know where he might be?” He asked immediately.

“Lord Smith took him” Peter replied.

“Wait what?! Is he alright? You haven’t heard from him?” Liam panicked.

“He’ll be fine if he did what I asked him to” Peter replied calmly.

“I still don’t feel good about this.. what if your prediction turns out to be wrong?” Liam asked.

“I’ve studied Lord Smith for years so I can roughly guess his next move. The only way this could end up badly is if Ethan does what I said perfectly” Peter said. “Where are the others? We gat somethings to do”

Ricky finally got to open his eyes after a long hour of sleeping. He shook his head a little and opened his eyes.

He frowned noticing he was in a torture room. The memories of what happened before he pass out came in.. the lady, who was she? Come to think of it, he had never seen her before in the clan. He only found her appeasing and decides to fuck her.

“Oh, the fucker is awake” a voice sounded beside him and his head snapped towards the direction. It was the lady he fucked.

Daisy has a lolipop in her mouth as she sat with her leg on top each other.

“Who the fuck are you?” Ricky frowned hard.

“A bitch you fucked, and the same bitch bought you here and tied you up like a nobody” Daisy replied curtly.

“I’m gonna kill you and tear your p*ssy apart” Ricky spat.

“You couldn’t even statisfy me. Are you even a man at all?” Daisy asked and Ricky felt like exploding.

“Who are you working for?” Ricky asked.

Before Daisy could give him another rude reply, the door open and a girl stepped into the torture room with some other men.

Ricky eyes widened, somehow he knew his instinct was right about this girl.

Annabelle!

Walking further, Annabelle stopped before him and tilted her head one side.

“Hello asshole” she greeted with a blank look.

“You didn’t lose your memories” Ricky stated.

“Yeah, that right” Annabelle smirked.

*FLASHBACK*

Back when Annabelle was given the shot.

“Mission accomplished” The leader of the surgeon said. “Clear the equipment” he said and walked out of the ward.

Three hours later, the door opened again a figure stepped in, it was a woman among the surgeon. She walked to stand beside Annabelle.

“Annabelle.. Annabelle wake up” She shook the girl lightly and Annabelle frowned before opening her eyes slowly and found the woman staring down at her.

The woman removed her nose mask.. Maria.. “it’s me okay? Sorry it had to go that way”

Annabelle sighed in relief. Her memories was still intact and didn’t feel strange.

When Maria heard about Lord Smith planning to wipe Annabelle’s memories, Maria told her son Peter about it. Peter knowingingly sent the three friends off knowing fully well that one of them would betray.. he had his suspicious right.. Jennifer.. he saw the way she stared at Ethan every moment and immediately knew she is in love with Ethan.

When they were found, Peter made it look like they are afraid and gave Annabelle out to Lord Smith’s men without making them suspicious.

After explaining everything to Annabelle. Maria said. “You need to pretend you’ve lost your memories, the only way to win against your enemies is to be closer to them”

Annabelle eyes teared up. She was so scared she has to lose everything all over again, especially Ethan.

“Why are you helping me?” She asked knowing more to there’s more to it.

“Well.. your mother and I are partners in crime fighting” Maria replied and Annabelle eyes widened.

“You know my mother?” Annabelle made to sit up but Maria held her back down.

“Stay still and yeah.. I know your mother. She was a detective and I was her partner. She is the best in our team. Smart and efficient with everything. I loved her so much. She was working on Lord Smith’s case and swore to find that man and end him since he was killing a lot of people. Sadly, she met her end because of it. I was devastated when I heard the news about how you were taken and how your sister and father struggled with their life…

“So I decided to avenge her death. I made a surgery on my face and changed my identity in order to get into the clan. I thought it would be easy but it wasn’t, I had to let my son know about my plans and he promised to help out. He surprisingly grew his own army, not strong enough but effective. Most of them deals with computers. I on the other hand tried my best to win the hearts of many mobsters here as a cook, though they dislike you but I do appease them that this was all Lord Smith’s fault. One day Peter asked.. ‘Is that girl worth saving?’ and I said yes. I’ve watch you everyday and the fact that you don’t remember my friend hurts me the most…

“Peter saw how you related with Ethan and knew that guy was going to change you. So I tested you that night you found me making a call, which was actually fake..

Annabelle remembered that day, she avenged Scar’s death on Bianca.

“It was on purpose, I told the other mobsters about it and their view about you slowly changed and they promised to help no matter what.. the day you finally got your memories, I wished I knew first and was able to stop you from facing that devil like that. I’m glad I’m able to finally help, I’m sure my friend would be so proud to have a daughter like you” Maria smiled with a teary eyes and caressed Annabelle’s cheek.

Annabelle sobbed for a while before speaking again. “Thank you so much”

“This war is going to be hard so please hang on, no matter what. I just want you to promise you’ll kill that bastard that ruined so many families” Maria said.

“I promise” Annabelle nodded with determination burning in her gaze.

“One more thing before I leave.. Lord Smith do have a daughter and here is the story”

Annabelle nodded and heard everything.

After their discussion, Maria left and Annabelle pretend to be asleep again. The doctor came in and she acted she had lose her memories. She became her old self.

When they visited the school, she badly wanted to run and hug Ethan tell him she was fine but she couldn’t, because that would ruin the plan. The worst part of it was the fact that Lord Smith killed Ethan’s father too.

That added more fuel to her hatred.

The only part she almost failed herself was when Jennifer called her real name. ISADORA.

She didn’t know how to feel about it, but she is going to tell Peter.

Peter has a way to communicate with her since Lord Smith can’t keep his eyes on her the whole time.

He told her, Lord Smith will come for Ethan and told her to shoot Ethan on the chest twice without making him get suspicious. Though, that was the hardest part of her life but she had no choice but to trust Peter’s plan…

Ricky laugh rented the place as he shook his head. This is quite interesting.

“You think you can go against my brother. That’s the most stupid decision you’ll ever make… ahhhh!!!” Ricky screamed out his lung when Annabelle shot his right leg. Blood drip out from it.

“Fuck!!” He screamed again.

“That’s for Scar” Annabelle said lowly. She continued. “I wanna ask you some questions”

“You won’t get anything from me” Ricky glared still trying to endure the pain on his leg.

“Oh really?” Annabelle raised her head high with a smirk gracing on her lips.

“You can’t kill me. You’ll be fucked if you do” Ricky chuckled.

“Yeah.. I know I can’t kill you..” Annabelle stopped and went to grab a dagger hanged on the wall. “But that doesn’t mean I can’t torture you, and I’m going to enjoy doing that”

Lord Smith wasn’t around so she have the time for it.

Ricky eyes widened..

In a room, a bag was opened revealing Ethan’s face and body.

“You can open up your eyes now” Came from a woman staring down at him.

Ethan opened one eye at first and his eyes met with the middle aged woman.

“Are you Maria?” Ethan asked in low weak voice.

“Yeah, it’s me” Maria replied.

“Am I dead?” Ethan asked and the woman rolled her eyes.

“No son, you’re alive. Do you feel pain anywhere?” Maria asked.

“Yes, my chest” he replied.

Maria looked down to his cloth. “That’s a lot of ketchup” she stated before helping to remove his hoodie.

“I had to make it look real” He remove his singlet revealing the bullet proof. “I’ve never been so scared in my life. I thought I was really going to die. She shot without hesitation”

“You know any mistake from you or her could have lead to your real death” Maria said.

“Yeah, but I couldn’t shake of the scene.. ahh” he winced when the woman pressed the small bruise on his chest resulted from the shooting.

“I never thought you would pull this off but I must say. You are really brave” Mrs Maria said.

“Thanks” He smiled and watch her apply some ointment in the two small bruises on his chest. “When is she coming?” He asked.

“Annabelle?.. once she get the chance to, she’ll come you check out” Maria replied.

Annabelle changed to a new cloth.

“Ethan is awake, he’s with Maria” Daisy said to Annabelle and her eyes widened.

Annabelle ran towards the hall. Worries was written all over her face as her long black hair blows behind her.

Getting to a room she stormed in and spot a figure sitting on a bench. Her heart skips a beat and her eyes teared up.

“Ethan” she muttered.

Ethan who looked up to her lips parted. “Belle?” He muttered and the girl ran towards him to give him a big hug.

“I’m so sorry, I had to hurt you. I didn’t have a choice I’m so sorry Ethan.. please forgive me, I’m so sorry..” she sobbed against the crook of his neck.

Maria smiled at the both of them. “I’ll leave you guys for a while” she said and left.

Ethan raised his hand to pat the back of the girl who was still sobbing.

“I’m fine Belle” Ethan spoke.

“No, I’m sorry.. I swear I never meant to hurt you..”

“Peter told me the plan already so I had the bulletproof with me.. I’m fine Belle” Ethan said but the girl kept on sobbing.

“I’m sorry I shot the gun at you” she said hugging him tighter.

“You didn’t have a choice. At least it’s better to be shot by you than him”

Finally, Annabelle broke the hug and stare at him, her face wet with tears.

“This would be the first time I’ll see tears on your face.. and I don’t like it” Ethan said wiping the tears off her face using his thumb.

“Did I scare you? Are you upset with me?” She asked, her eyes worried.

“You were so good with acting, I almost fell for the fact that you forgot about me. I was scared, I won’t lie but I’m not upset with you” Ethan replied still caressing her cheek.

“Are you sure?” She asked, cutely which made him smiled.

“Yes, girlfriend. I’m not upset, how do you want me to prove it” Ethan asked. He could feel his heart swell with the fact they are together.

Annabelle Finally smiled. “Then kiss me”

Ethan didn’t waste any moment to pull her close and slammed his lips hard on hers.
