The Devilish Assassin meets the Angelic Detective

"Fateful encounter of a cold-blooded assassin and a gentle detective: She wants to avenge her parents’ death, no matter the cost. He wants to redeem her and teach her forgiveness. One of them must give in. Merciless, fierce, vicious, and ruthless were the words that people would associate with her. That's how they would describe her, a living devil. Elle is known as the mysterious and meticulous assassin feared by both the underground syndicates and the government. But she finds herself helpless and at the end of her rope when she meets with despair on one of her missions. Erick, a chief detective, comes just in time to rescue the devil turned damsel. His kindhearted nature had led him to take the cold and aloof girl under his wing. With his protection on the line, Elle couldn't possibly get close to him in fear of being revealed. Can she let him into her walls or will she push him away, like all the others? Can he close his eyes to her crimes or will he punish her?" «»«»«»«»«»«»«»«» *Excerpts* "What if I had killed someone? What if I am a criminal, what will you do?" Erick kept silent for a few seconds, thinking. Elle could almost hear her pounding heart amidst the silence of their surrounding. Erick looked into her eyes and met her nervous gaze as he gave her his response. "If that is the case, then I will have to put you in prison," he said in a serious tone. Elle's heart sank when she heard it. She felt like her world fell into pieces. "So... if I ask you to surrender yourself to me, will you do it?" Erick asked her softly as he cupped her troubled face in his two hands. "Will you?... will you marry me Elle?" he added. Elle:"..." Erick took advantage of that chance when Elle was still in a trance as he brought his face closer to her and sealed her lips with a gentle kiss. -------------------------------------------------- COMPLETED [ 530 Chapters ] { Warning: This Book Features Mature Content [R-18] } Award: Writing Prompt Contest #93 First Placer- Villainess Female Lead Author's Other Book: 1.

Chapter 11: CatsEye the Assassin

Thirty minutes later after Elle left, the Arison Mansion was now in chaos. Police and Medics came rushing but it was too late.

Selena was the one who found his father and Peter inside the room. All of them were shocked about what happened.

They never imagined that the lively banquet would be turned into a disaster.

Two people were found dead and the worst case was Jorge Arison was one of them. Selena and her mother were hysterical. They couldn't believe what just happened.

Just a while ago Selena was having a sweet conversation with his Father but now he was already dead.

Hatred was visible in her beautiful eyes. She wanted revenge for whoever did this to her father.

She swore that no matter what, everyone who was involved in her father's death should pay double..no...it's triple the amount of pain she was feeling right now.

She would hunt them down and would avenge her father.

At XXX Crime Investigation Office

"Have you heard the news about what happened last night?" Bryan asked

"Yeah, it became the talk of the town early this morning," June replied

"This is a piece of shocking news!" April said as she was reading the newspapers.

"The Generous Businessman, Jorge Arison was murdered in his own mansion during his Youngest Daughter's Birthday Banquet".

"Two people were killed in one night. Jorge Arison and Peter Blake." Rose joined their conversation.

"Many people are mourning because of Mr. Arison. Aside from being a businessman he also helped so many people. They were really angry, asking for justice." April sighed as she continued scanning the news report.

"If he had done so many good deeds, who would dare to kill this compassionate person? What are their motives?" Bryan sounded confused.

"I guess all of you are now aware of the Arison and Blake Murder Case. It was not an ordinary murder case."

"I have just received a request from the Investigation Bureau, they are assigning this case to us," Erick said to his team. He was holding a document file.

"Please proceed to the conference room now. We will have a meeting about this case." Erick added. All of them went to the conference room.

Photos of the lifeless bodies of Arison and Blake were projected on the screen. "These were shots taken by police officer Kim. They were the ones who arrived first at the crime scene." Erick explained.

"What are other pieces of information they have as of now?" Bryan asked.

"According to the report submitted by Police Officer Kim, Peter got a wound on his neck while Jorge didn't have any wound. The doctor who responded at that time suspected that Jorge was poisoned. We are still waiting for the autopsy report to confirm this." Erick said to them.

"What do you think is the motive for killing those two people?" June asked the team.

"It could be someone had a grudge with them and they have offended that person." Bryan shared his thought. "Or it could be one of his Business competitors?"

"The autopsy reports are not yet done. They will forward it to Rose as soon as the result comes out. After this April and I will go to the crime scene and meet with Arison's family."

"Bryan and June, both of you will interview the people present that night and find out whether there are some witnesses and suspicious persons. Rose, you need to check and examine the CCTV footage. We might find some clues." Erick said as he assigned their task.

"Noted Chief", they replied.

Rose raised her hand" Eh...Sir, you mentioned a while ago that this is not a simple murder case. What do you mean by that?"

"This murder was done by one of the most wanted assassins known as the "Catseye". Erick said. The four of them were stunned upon hearing it.

"Oh my gosh...! I heard about that Mysterious assassin. That person was untouchable. No one knows about his true identity. Special Task Force Eagle was tracking him down. They are having a hard time catching that killer" June said.

"So that means we will be working together with Special Task Force Eagle with this case?" Rose was full of excitement.

"Yes, we will be working with them. Before this murder happened, One week ago they already submitted a request about working with our team in catching this Assasin."

"Alright! We will make another record once we catch this untouchable assassin!" Bryan was motivated

"This will be another dangerous and tough case for us. I may not have good night sleeps for the upcoming months." Rose sighed and sounded worried.

"Cheer up Rose! Remember we are the Magnificent 5 of Alpha Cinco Task Force. We always solve cases and catch the criminals." April encouraged her. Everyone laughed to lighten the atmosphere.

They knew that this would be a very challenging and very dangerous case.

Meanwhile, in Elle's place, an uninvited visitor arrived.....

The mysterious assassin that the Alpha Cinco Task Force is talking about was busy shooting her gun in her shooting range area when an unwelcome visitor came to visit her. She felt the presence of another person on her side, so Elle turned around.

"You killed Jorge Arison," he said.

"Obviously yes and it's none of your business," she replied. "Is that the reason you came here? What do you want?".

The man chuckled "Haha Is this how you welcome your Master? You didn't miss me. What a cold-blooded woman."

Elle just rolled her eyes. "Why are you here all of a sudden?"

"Master Phantom you are here! Why did not you tell me that you would come?" Charles said with a delighted voice.

Phantom smiled at him. "I was curious about your encounter with Jorge that's why I am here. And besides, I miss you both. How are you?"

Charles gave him a meaningful look as if telling him 'She is always bullying me, master. Please help me'. Phantom understood it. He just laughed. "Poor boy" he mumbled

"Can both of you leave me alone? I hate people who interrupt me especially if I am doing something." Elle glared and gave them a warning look.

The two men stared at each other. "Alright, we will leave." Charles quickly said.

"After you finish here, come to the gym. I want to spar with you. I have something to tell you also." Phantom said before leaving with Charles. Elle nodded.

She continued shooting her target. She was wondering what Phantom wanted to tell her. She knew that Phantom rarely visit her and once he did, it only means that it was really something important.
