The Light is Dark

A gorgeous woman in a long sleek red dress with heels sat on a chair with a cigarette dangling in her hands spoke " In a world where sometimes the light is dark and the dark is light... Who can really be trusted? And who can you really judge? In a city where a thief steals from the rich to feed his sick daughter, or the rich who earns this money by selling guns to feed their family Who is wrong and who is right? That is my real question, Is it not? ". She sighed as her other hand ran through her hair There in the darkest corner of the small but fancy room stood a devilishly handsome man as he chuckled at what the women said, he spoke in his deep voice as he said. " Mmm it depends, did the thief steal more than what was required for his sick daughter? and did he actually try to work to earn the money? or was he forced to steal, the rich may have sold guns to feed their family but don't other families also need to feed themselves it's clearly not like every family sells guns and what about the consequences of those guns being sold on the market then, who's lives would those guns then take? Light and dark can never be equal because either would outweigh each other." he finished saying as his lips curled up into a devilish smile as his pearly white teeth showed on his handsome face, even when it was so dark in the room the women could still see his face, her long eyelashes flickered as her lips curled into a smirk as she spoke in a pleasant but firm voice " Well Your Wrong. Because just as the light is dark, So is the dark light and sometimes all you need is a push to turn the light dark and the dark into light but there is always a balance otherwise that push would never be required in the first place So now tell me, Mr. Darius King are you the dark or light? " She said as her head titled in a questioning manner as she smirked while her eyes started twinkling with amusement.

Memories

She hated the rain. It made her remember memories she wished to forget.

Her parents died when she was 16 at the hands of the leonard family while her brother was left in a coma for 3 years

At the age of 16 right after her parents death, she had to take over the shares of her parents in Cross Ltd as the main shareholder as a minor partner in the company.

Although as a minor partner she didn't need to pay any of the liabilities or contribute to the capital anymore than what her parents already had done before they were alive.

But she was still the major shareholder of the company and CEO hence all the burdens had fallen on her.

During that time she had investigated how her parents had died and she had avenged them

But it was a very fluffing long and tedious process considering,

the fact that she had to involve herself more into the underworld than her own parents were.

And well they were already in the underworld pretty deep .

Ever since she was 4 years old she was trained in every subject in business, from commerce, accountancy to economics.

She was trained to shoot, kill, fight and to run a bussiness

And to her every bussiness as innocent as it may look to the world would not have existed if it didn't dabble in the dark arts of the underworld.

Just like her parents who dabbled in the underworld to the point she was trained when she was 4 years old to be a knowledgeable killing machine

And when they passed away

all that darkness was left on her tiny shoulders to hold, at that time she had no one,

She was left alone to carry the burden as it passed down to her

As the years went by she became cold and Heartless to others

As 3 years passed by her brother finally woke up from his coma but by that time...

There was no comming back

The happy times she spent with her parents as they taught her, played with her and praised her as a genius

Were now something she feared to even remember they were now locked in a casket with chains on it and thrown in the deep ocean with an anchor in her mind

To others she's known as the cold-hearted queen of the underworld.

Which she probably was hah!

She ran her hand through her long hair moving it to the side

as she sighed depreciately at herself

She moved out of her chair and broke the cigarette

She walked towards the door and opened it,

She started moving towards the hallways of the mansion to find Corey the butler

" Corey! Where are you?" Aina called out as she walked along the hallways

She could hear footsteps hustling towards her positions as she stopped walking and waited

Soon enough Corey appeared and said " Miss Ania, you called?"

"yes Corey I did, please tell me if you've gathered the information on the leader of the king empire, he had sent a bussiness proposal not long back and I havnt sent a reply back" Ania said to Corey

" Yes Miss Ania! Iv only been able to gather the name of the leader of the King empire and his position in the underworld" Corey said to Ania as he bowed his head slightly

Ania waved her hand and dismissed his action and instead asked him

" that's it? Just his name and position of the King empire? What happened was the information hard to investigate or was it purposely blocked." asked Ania

Corey swiped the sweat from his forehead off

" Miss Ania the information was probably blocked on purpose. "

Corey said to Ania as he began to feel nervous

" probably? " Ania scoffed

" if your going to tell me information then tell me facts not theories. Now tell me what you learnt" Ania said in a pleasantly calm and dangerous voice

" Yes Miss Ania! The name of the leader of the King empire is Darius King, and the King empire is on-par with the Queen in the underworld." Corey said as he started feelings exceptionally nervous now

Ania was suprised her eyes widened a bit but then was wiped away as killing intent and amusement replaced it

" on-par huh?" Ania said outloud as she laughed a bit

" we'll see about that when we meet for the deal." Ania said in interest as she turned to walk back to her bedroom

" thank you Corey" she told him as she started walking back

she reached her room and went to the stack off documents on her desk near the bed

She picked up the document with seal of a King's crown and quickly she read through it

'Darius King huh? ' she thought as she tapped her finger on the Desk.
