Kris Phantom POV

"I would kill Kristen" she said to herself about to rush out the door when I pulled her back.

"I only let you know the truth so you can be stronger not fight without a strategy," I said to her, she looked at me still very angry at what was going on.

"I can't believe you still support your brother after everything". Amaya said to me.

"You would move into the mansion with me". I said to her, staring back at Kross to see if he would object to what I said.

"The Phantom palace?". Kross asked.

"Yes". I replied smiling because I knew it would be good news to him.

"Thank you so much brother for giving me the chance". He whispered before hugging me.

"Eww, stop". I teased, pushing him away. He smiled a little before leaving, I knew he had a lot of business to attend to but Amaya held him down and now that he knew Amaya was in safe hands and would always be close to him he would gladly attend all his meetings.

"And what I do for you?" She asked.

"I would train you to become strong and you would take up the identity of a new person," I said to her but she still looked confused.

"Why would you train me in all your secret works?". She asked.

"Because you belong to me and outside the Phantom mansion, you are a nobody" I said to her.

"I would assign a new guard, Flynn is not to be trusted around you," I said to her before escorting her out.

"Why do you always cover your face?". She asked behind me as we walked down the corridor that leads to the back door.

"It's my signature, as the triplets we all have our signatures which we abide by, Kristen is the free-spirited one Kross is the playboy and I am the mysterious one". I said to her before opening the door, a Mercedes Benz was already waiting for us.

"Get in". I ordered opening the passenger door for her which she gladly entered.

"Why do you trust me so much to be part of your business, from what I know you three are very mysterious and private about your businesses". She said to me making me laugh.

"The minute I took off my mask and you saw my face, you had all my secrets in your hands so keep in mind that you can never snitch on any of us, even Kristen who did injustice to you". I warned her as we drove through the city heading to the Phantom mansion.

Before arrival, I had already told all the Maids to prepare her room and pyjamas for the night. So when we arrived, the maids took her directly to her room.

"That woman, why do you think she won't be the start of trouble in this mansion". Damian, my best friend asked joining me in the bar close to the kitchen where I always sit whenever I have a lot on my mind and right now I have a lot on my mind.

I can't give her to Kross because I know it comes with a price and she can't be around Kristen he took everything from her and one of Kristen's weaknesses no one knows about is the fact that Kristen's heart is warmer than he presents it, it won't take long for him to warm up to Amaya and slowly fall in love with her and she seems to have an aura who draws men closer to her.

I just hope I don't get stuck in this trouble.

"She can't do anything, Because I am always watching her and warned her of the dangers she would get into If she ever tries to betray me". I said to Damian who smiled.

"I still don't know what got into you that made you show her face when even your trusted men haven't seen what you look like," Damian said, he was right but I guess it was just a rational decision I took because of angry I was at Amaya for stealing from the Phantom family and mostly me of all people.

"I guess I just lost it and didn't know when I showed her my face", I replied drinking my wine at one shot maybe that would help with my frustrations a little. I thought to myself.

"Just be careful, I can see her slowly getting into your heart". Damian warned making me chuckle.

"You know me very well Damian, that can never be possible". I said to him tapping his shoulder playfully before walking out and into my room, since he came to the mansion this late it means he would be spending the night here so he can continue enjoying his drink while I retire to bed". Amaya, please don't be someone I would regret helping, just always listen to me and be a good person that is the only way you can be stronger and prove to everyone I picked the right person for the job.

The next morning I sent for Amaya to join the dining table which she did. We soon started eating and Kross joined us smiling. He placed a kiss on Amaya's cheek which made her a little dumbfounded for a few minutes.

"I am so happy you could be this close to me" Kross said to Amaya.

.

"Can you stop affection and just have breakfast ". I said and to make everything even worse than It already was, Logan walked in a little drunk with Flynn and Sandra assisting them into the mansion but the minute his eyes fell on Amaya he was suddenly back to his senses.

" Amaya Stanford" he called at me drunkenly. He pulls out a seat beside Amaya who is already stiff on her seat.

"Just one night and I am already missing you". He said, Kross made a move to stand up but I pulled him back from beneath the table.

"Kristen leave me alone" she requested s

ilently. I just pray she doesn't do anything rational to Kristen he is still drunk that's why he is doing all of this.

"Take Kristen to his room". I ordered Sandra who was about to pull him up but he pushed her away.

"You aren't Amaya so don't touch me". He said aggressively to Sandra who moved away.

"I am sorry Amaya, you got in between all this". He whispered to her placing his head on her shoulder. This was what I was trying to avoid.
