Surrounding The Mystics Of Death

An awkward atmosphere appeared in the room, Luke frowned and asked

"What makes you think presenting yourself to me is a tempting offer".

" Am extremely good in combat and can protect you as your shadow, finally I have Intel on the 7 Super Countries that will be very beneficial to you"

A lot of things were going through Luke's mind, he was aware of Victoria's Intel on the super countries and he couldn't care less about it.

Now what was tempting was Victoria offering herself into his service.

After seeing her accomplishments there was no doubt she was top quality in hand to hand combat and matial arts she was also exceptional at commanding soldiers.

Seeing her profile he was really tempted, she was someone who would make it into the ranks of Vice commander or might even be strong enough to challenge John for his position.

He was extremely tempted, I mean who wouldn't, but the problem was ensuring her loyalty. He had already confirmed that there was nothing fishy about her coming to make the deal.

" If you pledge yourself to me, how will you assure me of your undying loyalty?" Luke asked.

"All I can give you is a promise, and I never break My promises. I would always serve you and follow your command, I will do anything you ask me to do", Victoria said with determination.

Luke deeply stared into her green eyes and asked with an enchanting voice, " Anything I want?".

Victoria gritted her teeth but still uttered with determination, " am at your command."

Luke nodded and called John, when John saw Victoria he casually glanced at her, but deep inside he knew that woman sitting there innocently was strong, extremely strong.

"John prepare the "Mid Night Eagles", we have a legion to exterminate, and by the way I will be part of the operation".

Luke then turned to a stunned Victoria " I accept your deal, but after tonight the Mystics Of Death would be no more, I will spare their lives if you convince them to surroundere, but no matter what happens tonight the Mystics of death legion will disappear from the world tonight."

Back at Beauty Foundation a serious meeting was taking place between the higher up of the company and Beatrice.

They completely disagreed with Beatrice decision to decline Harry's partnership, this was a breakthrough for them.

The partnership was worth billions plus it's ability to extend their influence to other continents.

They believed Beatrice ego was clouding her judgement, among the board of directors and shareholders only a few meekly supported Beatrice whiles some remained neutral but a majority of them were outright against Beatrice.

" Silence", Beatrice said with a commanding voice and glanced at the room coldly making everyone shiver.

They had forgotten who she was for a second, Steve who was a major shareholder fixed his tie and said rebelliously

" madam chairman, firstly you didn't think about the company when you got married, you just did what you wanted without thinking about the company

You went ahead and married a broke man who can't do a damn thing to help the foundation, though we may seem strong marrying the second Prince or Harry Alan would have solidified our foundation in the industry

but thanks to you, we are just a leading industry who could be knocked down if a strong hurricane hits.

And now that we have such a deal you want to stop it, all for what?

Lately you have been making decisions that do not seem aligned with the interest of the company

maybe it's time you step down."

The room was filled with silence, many people where shocked. Steve was the one with the most shares apart from Beatrice so he held a lot of power.

But Beatrice ability to manage the company and bring it to new higts completely overshadowed his authority, but now he has a perfect chance to dethrone Beatrice.

The other share holders started thinking about it seriously, the only reason why they trusted her and let her do what she wants was because they all expected her to marry either the second Prince of krustalia or Harry Alan which would have taken them to new hights.

But now it's impossible since she married a loser nobody even knows or cares for, and she's now even denying them of such a billion dollar deal that is falling from the sky.

Maybe it was time they let someone more competent handle the job.

" I agree, Beatrice should step down" said one of the share holders.

The moment he said that, a series of voice demanding her abdication sounded in the room.

Beatrice was smiling as if it had nothing to do with her, she glanced at the old people in the meeting room.

Wherever her glance passed, people shivered with fear.

"Very well, Since the majority of you here have voted to kick me out even though it wasn't the meeting agenda,

I will oblige and resign, Since you don't want me here I will leave now."

She got up and walked out, when she got to the gate, she glanced at them and added " Am stepping down as CEO , but I still own the majority shares.

And even though am no longer your ceo, I still have the ultimate power to make major decision since am the majority shareholder, and it's been decided Beauty foundation will not co-operate with Mega Corporation."

After saying this she walked out leaving all of them stupidfied, how did they forget she started this company and owned the majority shares, she was still the most powerful person in the company, wheather CEO or not.

They all looked at themselves and smiled wryly, they were fucked.

At night in the small town of Eldoria, the 12 assassins where in their individual rooms doing their own things and waiting for Victoria to return so they can proceed with their plans.

Suddenly they all got out of their rooms and looked at the shock on each other's face, their sixth sense and years of training and life and death experiences could never be wrong.

They have been completely surrounded and their perpetrators had done it without their knowledge. Note they were top notch assassins, if they claim to be second who would dare be first.

They could only sense it now because their perpetrators wanted them to be aware of their presence.

They formed a circle and took out their guns, of the 12 people here, six of them were holding semi automatic handgun and the remaining six were holding M16 assault riffles, though they were assassins this might be their last stand so they might as well go out in style and loudly too.

They removed all the silencers and smiled at each other, they all knew what that smile meant.

They grew up together and they were about to die together too.

They had trained all their lives to kill the scums of the society. They've killed a lot of high ranking corrupt officials, robbed greedy people and even managed to assassinate some dictators.

They had lived their lives to the fullest without regret because they expected this day to come, they've had their fun in life.

"Not a bad Life at all, it's been an awesome life, we trained together, lived together, had fun together and now we die together

Not a bad life at all", said one of the assassins, they all laughed and aimed at their various directions.

" Let's kill as many as we can what do you all say?"

"Of course we will be taking a lot of mates to the after life with us".

Men who were totally armored in black clothes surrounded them.

What was shocking was that they looked like black illusions approaching them. All the light bulbs in the area exploded

These men seemed to have blended with the darkness, they could see black lights flashing faintly on their bullet proof advanced vest.

They didn't care to look anymore and realeased all their bullets on the intruders.

To their shock and dismay, all their bullets couldn't cause any harm to the intruders, they could see their bullets enter the vest but had no impact on the intruders and their strange technologies.

Before they could register what the hell was happening, they were knocked down unconscious, with disbelief on their faces.
