He Returned

Kathy Pov

I heard high-pitched screams in the distance after a BOOM. I hid behind a high bar counter to avoid bullet rain. I just ran out of bullets so I am changing the magazine.

Within a few seconds, I loaded and began to attack back, I took down five. I saw many of our men falling dead.

I don't know, if this fight gonna end in a win or not so better I save my life. I don't want to die like this, cause I still have some work to do.

I stood on my feet to get the hell out of there. When I did suddenly a bullet creased through my shoulder, I winced but it didn't stop me.

I move forward to reach the exit. I didn't plan for this, I can't lose now after so many difficulties.

I must survive to achieve my goal. When I was about to reach the door, a big flesh meat douche stepped in front of me.

He raised his gun and shot but nothing came out. I sighed internally and shot him back still nothing, Mine is empty too.

He smirked, threw his gun away, and trained toward me. I threw mine and missed his punch, he was about to kick my guts, but I grabbed his leg, and turned back to kick his face.

My heel pointed and gave him blood. He looked pissed now, so he used a bull attack, I fell on my back with a thud. I felt my back numb.

He straddled my stomach and punched my jaw, it felt like it's dislocated. I kicked my leg to the front on the back of his head. He loses his grip on me a little.

Before he recovers, I slip out of his grasp, used a sharp piece of glass, stabbed his neck continuously who is on his knees, and knock him dead.

Once he drops lifeless, I walked out of the back exit and went to the nearby parking lot. I used my pocket knife to open the door of the unfamiliar car. Once I slip in, I used the trick that I learned how to ignite the engine and drove off from the burning south base of Victor's.

I reached my penthouse, but I am bleeding heavily. I need to stop it so I get my mini surgical kit out of my lower kitchen cabin and sat on the floor with alcohol. I ripped my black button-up shirt off, and poured alcohol on my wound, when it burned I groaned through my gritted teeth.

Once the burn subsided, I dubbed the wound with a fresh cloth to stop the blood, after bleeding slowly down I used suture needle and stitch my open deep wound together with some groans and grunts.

This is not the first time I am using a surgical kit. I even used it for worse. Once I finished, I cleaned the excess blood around, put some ointment on it, and wrap it with a white cloth bandage.

I dubbed other small scratches and wounds with alcohol-dipped cotton. Once I ended up tending myself, I stood slowly on my feet and get the bourbon bottle and sip some to endure my pain. I walked to my living room, flopped on the couch, and groaned.

Tonight as usual I went to the south base to check the imported drugs from Deak. When I am doing so, suddenly base went under attack. Still, we didn't come out of the north base attack now this.

I don't know who is doing this. When I asked Victor, he didn't answer me adequately. I guess he is concealing something from me. I should find out what's happening soon otherwise I will be lost in between storms of these fucking Mafias.

My body pain was killing me so badly, I was adjusting myself to get the appropriate position to get comfortable that's when my phone rang. I picked up and voiced, "Hello". I got a reply, "As I expected Jason got an investment from his father". I sighed and said, "I guess we should make our move".

I heard a hum so I continued, "Ok let's move to plan B" I heard a warning, "Make it fast. If he stood on his feet again it will be hard for us to make him fall". I hummed and said, "Okay"

With that, I hung up the call and sighed. What am I going to do? I can't get defeated after I came this far. I must find a way as soon as possible to stop him but Victor's condition is not so exemplary as to stop Jason.

Even if I ask Victor, he won't do anything. Money is not the only thing I used to drag down Jason. The only reason I chose Victor among many business billionaires is because he is a Mafia Don who scares everyone.

I join in his gang and did everything he asked me to do. When I earned his trust, I seduced him to make him fall for my sexy charming spell which he never will recover from, and used him to start all businesses I run now.

I used his Mafia power to make officers, politicians, and many other businessmen drag Jason down the pit. Now someone new was raised to defy Victor or the old one came back for revenge. But I can't be in the falling team. I want to be on the winning team.

That's how I can win my own game against Jason. When I was about to rest my eyes, I heard my front door opening. I turned to exit and saw Victor walk in with a worried face. I turned other side and rolled my eyes.

He sat beside me and asked in an edgy tone, "Oh! Diva. I am glad you are alive. I am so sorry dear. I should've guessed this would happen and stopped you" I sighed and replied, "It's okay babe, I am alright. What happened to our base?"

He rubbed his face, took a deep breath, and replied, "Nothing left Diva but it's okay. We will get on track soon again" I turned to him, looked into his eyes, and asked, "Babe, I want to know who is doing this. Don't you dare to dodge me this time".

He licked his dry lips and whispered, "Raav". I frowned and questioned, "Who?"

He cleared his throat and voiced in a waving tone, "Eight years ago he was the one who ruled the underworld not only here but all over the world. He is the most ruthless person you could ever see, mercy is not in his dictionary. His first kill was at his seven. If ever a person betray him then he would show hell by burning their soul alive. All of a sudden he disappeared. Now he is back"

I nodded my head in understanding and asked, "But why is he attacking you?" He sighed and said, "I guess, he wants his throne back that's why he is attacking not only me but all first Dons all over world"

I massaged my template and asked, "What you gonna do now?" he replied without hesitation, "Whatelse obviously gonna return what's his" I just averted my head to other side and glared hard at the wall.

He sat in front of me on his knees, grabbed my hands, and said, "Diva trust me, still I can help you to drag Jason down" I don't want to throw this idiot yet so I smiled softly at him and nodded my head slowly.

He pecked my lips and stood on his foot and said, "I am gonna arrange a meeting with Raav so all this will come to an end". My ears perked up, I chin up to him and asked, "Are you gonna meet him?" he replied, "Yes Diva" I looked into his eyes and asked, "Can I join you?". He stood still without any word for a minute.

I get up on my feet and touch his shoulder. He jerked off from his memory lane and said, "Huh!" I frowned deep and asked, "What happened babe?" he cleared his throat and said, "I don't think it's a good idea Diva"

I tsked my tongue and said, "Please Babe, I just want to help you. Hmm?" he sighed and said, "Okay I will take you" I smiled and kissed him deeply. He pulled back after one hella make out and said, "No, not now. I have work and you are not so well to go wild. Take a rest, and meet me tomorrow morning at the main base. Hmm?"

I nodded my head at him, he pecked my lips and walked to exit. Once he disappeared out of my sight. I flop on my couch and stared at the ceiling.

I have no choice but to betray Victor. I have a reason to stay at the top. Even though this new guy Raav is old geese, I am ready to suck him dry to reach my only goal, Jason's downfall.

I can't sleep. Even after the terrible battle I face so as usual I took a shot and allow the dark abyss to consume me. The morning alarm annoyed my sleep, I opened my eyes with dry tears. I guess I had the same dream again. I can't go for my morning run cause of my wounds.

I took a shower, did my morning chores, cleaned my wound with a new bandage, and dressed in a red short dress stopped by mid-thigh with three-fourth sleeves and a low neck showing my cleavage deep.

There is an open cut on both sides of my hip too. I bun up my long hair to show off my collarbones. Did smokey black-red makeup with dark red lip paint? I look like a slut. Actually, that's the point here.

I walked out, reached parking lot, hop into my car, and drove to the main base. When I reached there, all Victor's men greeted me. I just walked straight to Victor's cabin.

I saw him staring at his phone with deep thoughts. He didn't even realize my presence. I walked closer to him, sat on the table, and put my leg on his handrest.

He snapped out of his thoughts and chin up to see me. I raised my left brow and asked, "What happened babe?" he shook his head and said, "Nothing Diva. They asked us to meet him at his place"

I withered and asked, "Do you think it is a good idea to go to his place without any backup?". He kissed my bare foreleg and said, "Raav may ruthless but he will always keep his word. He gave his word so no worries."

I nodded my head and said, "When we were leaving?" he stood up and kissed me deeply, and replied, "Now" With that he hold my hand and walked to the exit while I follow him.

Once we reached the exit, he hopped into the driver seat of his car and I get in the passenger seat. After we settled with seat belts, he ignited the engine to hit the road.

After forty minutes of driving, he stopped somewhere no one was around and asked me to get down. All I see around is a jungle, before I question Victor, a black SUV stopped beside us.

A guy in all black gets down with some weird mask covering half of his face from the left side till his lower cheek, half nose, both eyes, and half forehead. Other than that, his face is bare on the right side of his cheek, chin, and lips. Still, no one could aware of his features. Clever.

He walked to me and tied my eyes with black cloth. I can't see anything, after a minute I was dragged somewhere, and when he pushed me, I realized he is tugging us in his SUV.

He started to drive, so I began to calculate time and direction. After twenty minutes he stopped the car. When my eye cover is removed, I rubbed my eyes softly and get adjusted to the brightness.

Once I adapted I saw big pillars and too-high ceilings with gorgeous chandeliers glowing bright making the place heavenly. My jaws dropped down to see the freaking palace I was in. All look so elegant and scream royalty. The same mask guy guides us in.

I saw many men here but every single one wearing the same mask but their masks has some red patches. After several turns and some flight of stairs, he opened the big golden double door. Once I walked in, I stood frozen in my place to see HIM.

To Be continued.
