ENEMIES

Siren...

Hello, Arrow she says with an evil laugh.

What do you want from me?

Something perhaps... She says cocking her head to the side.

I don't know anything, and even if I knew I won't tell you! He responded weakly but with determination.

Oh, I already know that she said sitting on the table. That's why I'm holding you here just for fun.

Siren... You'll pay for this!

Oh really? she said raising a brow.

The organization won't let you go scot-free if anything happens to me!

What makes you think I care? Was her carefree response.

You should bother, because they are ruthless.

You're interesting, you know... But I don't have all day. She said with a smirk as she took off her jacket and placed it on the chair, pulled out a dagger and went to his side. Guess what I'm about to do to you?

Siren...

Shhhhhh don't be a crybaby now, okay? Hold his mouth open. Liam and Leo, we're dumbfounded by what they were witnessing. She used her hand to hold his tongue and cut it with the dagger in her hands. They knew Logan was ruthless but this woman seems to be a beast. They never imagined a woman could be this cruel.

Aaaaaaah. He screamed but all she did was smile.

You see... I don't think you understand the gravity of what you did. You put the lives of my loved ones in trouble. Didn't your superior warn you? I'm not the type of person to mess with!! I would love to see you suffer some more but... I have important things to attend to, and...

The phone starts ringing. It's Arrow's boss.

Bingo!! Was the first thing she muttered and picked up the call.

"Arrow any updates on your mission?" He asks calmly.

"Well hello, President!" Siren replied with a sarcastic tone.

Siren!

The one and only. She said with delight.

"Where's Arrow?" The President demanded.

"Well... let's say, send number two. The first was boring!" Siren replied casually, knowing she would kill Arrow anyway.

"Siren! You ungrateful brat!" The President yelled in anger.

"I'll take that as a compliment," Siren said smugly. "I knew you would send a mere amateur to get rid of me."

"You're underestimating my abilities!" The President retorted.

"Clearly, I overestimated them," Siren said, unimpressed. "Don't worry, I'll make sure number two will be more challenging."

"You can't just keep killing my men!" The President exclaimed.

"Well, maybe you shouldn't keep sending them," Siren replied, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"This is not a game, Siren!" The President snapped.

"Isn't it? Seems like we're playing a twisted game of chess and I'm winning," Siren replied coolly.

"This ends now. I'll send in my best men to take you down," The President threatened.

"Good luck with that," Siren said before hanging up the phone. She knew she had outsmarted him and this was just the beginning.

Liam and Leo couldn't believe this woman, she just cut off someone's tongue and she is now chatting fearlessly over the phone. How nasty can she be?

You! She said pointing at one of the guards.

Yes, boss.

Every after three minutes, take off a part of his body. If he passes out, Kill him!! She commanded and left, with her fluff.

Bro, did you just see and heard everything she did?

Yeah I did, I'm still in shock.

I swear, I've never seen such a ruthless match of couples.

Me neither. Liam responded, still shaken.

AT THE WILLIAMS

What are you going to do about this situation?

I'm finding a way out just let me be, woman!! He screamed at his wife.

Fine, I'll be in my room since all you can do is sit around doing nothing. She said dashing out of her husband's study in anger.

I can't believe our daughter is behaving like this. She's too young to be so mischievous. He utters completely frustrated.

Well, maybe if you spent more time with her instead of hiding in your study, she wouldn't act out so much!! She yells irritated by her husband as she turned to face him.

What are you talking about? I work hard to provide for this family. He defended standing on his feet.

Oh, I see. So it's my fault that our daughter is misbehaving? She spoke sarcastically.

No, it's not your fault, but you're not helping by criticizing me all the time. He spat.

Look, I'm sorry. I just feel like we're not on the same page when it comes to parenting. She says finally calming down.

I know what you mean. It's like we're always playing catch-up with her, trying to figure out what she's up to next. He admits.

Maybe we need to be more proactive. Set some boundaries and consequences so she knows what's expected of her. She suggested.

That's a good idea. We need to be united on this. He nods to her words. Truth be told, he was tired of Amanda's tantrums and he really wanted to make peace instead of creating more chaos by tolerating her evil schemes and useless tantrums.

Agreed. Let's go talk to her and make it clear what's acceptable behaviour and what's not. Smiling at him.

You're a great partner, you know that? He says grinning.

I do know that. Now, let's go handle this situation together. Laughing.

As they entered her room she turned towards them, they sat down calmly and tried raising a peace topic before going to the main deal. After chatting for a while they noticed she's been glued to her phone. So her mother brought up the topic.

Amanda, can we talk?

About??

Logan. Her father said.

Amanda sat on her bed, her thoughts consumed by Logan. She had been obsessing over him for months now, but he had never shown any interest in her. Her parents had caught her daydreaming about him countless times, and they always tried to talk some sense into her. Today was no different.

"What are you doing, Amanda?" her mother asked, getting her attention.

Amanda looked up from her phone, startled. "Just texting a friend," she responded, trying to hide the fact that she had been scrolling through Logan's photos he's rarely seen on camera or in public gatherings, these were the only things that she had to call her own when it came to him.

Her father looked at her with a concerned frown. "How many times do we have to tell you that Logan is not interested in you?" Remember he didn't even honour the request concerning your marriage, he ignored it and countlessly told you he is not interested in you.

Amanda rolled her eyes. "I know, I know. Can we drop it now? I'm not doing anything wrong."

Her parents exchanged a look before her mother said, "Amanda, we just want what's best for you. We want you to focus on your career and not waste your time on someone who doesn't even care if you exist."

"But I can't help how I feel," Amanda protested, feeling her frustration begin to build.

"Then try to move on," her father said sternly. "There are plenty of other men out there who would be interested in you."

Amanda shook her head, feeling tears prickle at the corners of her eyes. "I don't want anyone else. I just want Logan."

Her parents looked at each other, exasperated. "This obsession of yours has to stop," her mother said firmly. "It's not healthy."

Amanda felt a wave of anger wash over her. "You don't understand," she snapped. "You don't know how I feel."

Her parents sighed, clearly irritated. "We've had enough of this argument," her father said, turning to leave. "Just...try to be rational for once, okay?"

Amanda glared at their retreating backs, feeling more alone and misunderstood than ever. She knew her parents meant well, but they just didn't get it. She couldn't help the way she felt about Logan, and she wasn't going to stop until he was hers alone. Even if it meant getting rid of anyone who was standing in her way, including Logan's fiancée.
