Chapter 3

Were you unaware of the assault that occurred that morning? Bobby asked the old guy a question.

"No, I do not," .

What made you attempt to avoid speaking with the police, then?

"I didn't intentionally flee from the police, but I was afraid that people who stormed the warehouse may come after me," the suspect said. The guy answered.

"Your dirty hands are the reason you were terrified,"

"No, I have no knowledge, and my hands are clean,"

But you took part in the illicit activity that took place that evening.

"It wasn't against the law; occasionally we work late and get paid extra," was what really took place. What kind of merchandise did you folks offer to them, the man clarified What else do we sell my kid, said Bobby? We provide coffee drinks. However, you have a number of beverage goods.

"Yes, tin milk was the one those men came for that night."

"All right, those men. Recognize them? How often do they belittle you people?

"I Don't know them, but from how he interacted with them, it seemed Sam knew them,"

'Hmm' Bobby took a moment to look through a book. "The sales book has no entry for that night's sales."

I'm not sure about that, um. All I had to do was load the van.

"That means you partnered with Mr. Sam to conduct an unlawful business; there are no current records of the items in your stock or of the sales,"

'No o, it's not illegal' the man replied, already frightened.

'It is…' Bobby's phone rang, interrupting his interrogation.

'A body found?' Bobby's eyes widened as he stood up from his seat.

"Littleton Reuben" Lord Ben called loudly and squinted his eyes, as he and his friend, Lord Fila stared at the picture of the man bearing the name he called.

Littleton Reuben was the PAN president appointed to work during the years 2016 – 2020. He was appointed a few days after the new President of South Africa was sworn in. He was once a dreaded wolf who terrorized the country, but after gaining a lot of money, he ventured into Politics and carried out his job perfectly nabbing several fake drug producers and marketers and wolves including Lord Ben, he also rejected Lord Ben and other Offenders at every attempt that was made to bribe him which made him become hated by several corrupt politicians and government officials but loved by citizens of the country for his good job.

Littleton Reuben was the first person but least important on Lord Ben's revenge list, he was desperate to make the man breathe his last.

"Are you up for this task?" The leader of Lord's clan, a large, muscular man who stood by Lord Ben's side, caught Lord Ben's attention. "I want him killed,"

The man said, "Hmm Lord," with a frightened chuckle. He's one of the top werewolves in power, so breaching his power would require a werewolf slayer, sir, and you know... "This one might not be that easy; killing him might not be hard, but getting away will definitely be.""

"Be quiet! Idiot' The Lord turned to his friend and growled angrily at the man. 'This is what am saying; these guys are bunch of lazy goats, I know that they won't be able to carry out this mission'

'Its okay Ben. I believe that if we can give these individuals what they need, they will be able to complete the task. Lord Fila agreed with the man and looked at his face to see if he was serious. Or is it not?

The thug started off by saying, "Lord, you Don't understand; it's not about murdering him but after killing him." "Breaking his personal security may not be too difficult for us, but if we succeed, that'll be serious."

If you obtain? Lord inquired as the man stopped and now seemed more bewildered.

He gave it some serious thought before saying, "There's no way we can even get to him." How can we even approach Littleton when he has the ability to detect impending disaster or war?"

"Please leave this place and quit chatting so idly." Ordered by Lord Ben.

Now, what is the alternate plan? Lord Fila enquired.

Since they messed up and nearly implicated us the last time, I already ordered a trained Slayer from Russia because I knew these guys weren't capable.

To Russia? How?'

'Huh? You inquire as to "how" Lord Ben chuckled heartily. "From one of my business partners in Russia, he sent me an American, made from one of the raw materials I sent him more than fifteen years ago,"

'I Don't understand' Lord Fila looked confused.

You'll understand eventually, Don't worry. I will contact her and provide the necessary information to her.

'Huh? A woman?"

"Yes, a woman. However, she performs better than many guys. As he replied, Lord Ben laughed once more.

"When might she arrive here? I really want to see her.

"Hmm, that's the question for which I have no answer," said the speaker. Lord Ben's once-smiling face became grave. 'I've not even seen her face, she talks to me on phone and chats on Skype but she wears a mask to conceal her face'

'What? That's nonsense'

'No, Rochas says she'll reveal herself when it is time. I only hope that the time would be soon'

However, where does she reside? Lord Fila questioned further.

She refused to stay in the house I prepared for her before she arrived, and when we went to meet her at the airport, she even ran away. I believe she lives close to Track Avenue.

Interesting, huh? In an effort to make sense of everything he had just learned about the female assassin, Lord Fila shook his head.

As Isabella accepted Lord Ben's Skype call, a voice said, "Hello Isabella." A middle-aged man who was sitting next to Lord Ben and was fixating intently on the screen was grinning as he spoke.

Lord, good morning. As she added the wine to the champagne glass cup, Isabella spoke.

Do you wear your mask while you sleep? Lord Ben jokingly enquired. I didn't anticipate seeing it on you this early in the day.

Lord, I'm already in my office. The mask is a required business attire for me. Isabella echoed that back in a positive manner.

And you feel comfortable drinking wine while wearing the mask?

'Lord' Call from Isabella was more serious. I Don't make jokes during business hours, so please get to the point of your call.

"Isabella, I have another task for you. I want you to eliminate someone." He is the nation's health minister as well as the leader and alpha werewolf of his clan.

An Alpha? Why do you feel the need to remove him?

"I have my reasons, while you just want to finish the job,"

Yes, Boss, I'm sorry to ask. She laughed. "Send me all the information you have; I'll look over it and get back to you."

"I've already forwarded the information to your mailbox; you'll receive it in a few seconds."

I trust you won't pull any tricks this time, boss. Isabella asked in a mocking tone.

"No, Isabella," Lord laughed briefly. 'I think I'll go by our former agreement, I'll pay you monthly'.

'Monthly?'

'Yes monthly, that's the deal I made with Rochas'

'Okay?'

'But I can't afford much at the moment, lets make it five thousand dollars monthly for now'

'Five thousand dollars?'

'Yes'

"It's OK, agreed,"

'Agreed?' When she agreed to the bargain, the Lord's face lit up with happiness, clearly expressing his surprise.

"Yes, but you'll provide all the funding required and..."

'Capital…?'

"Calm down Lord, the capital just contains the weapons, silver bullets, vehicles, computers, and other little items I'll need,"

"Okay, I agree." Lord Ben grudgingly agreed, oblivious to the sometimes uncomfortable looks he was receiving from Lord Fila.

Good, and your paycheck would always arrive at the first of the month. Isabella threw in.

What the…

Lord, deal or no deal?

'I can't…'

I'm not a market lady who bargains; please let me know if you're not ready since I have other things to do. She spoke directly. Or why do you believe I'm taking so little, you ask?

It's not feasible, "" No o" Lord Fila added in a trembling voice. "How can," Isabella said. After a brief pause, Lord Ben interjected, asking, "What? Agreed? What if she fails to complete the task? Fila staggered.

"She dare not fall short" Lord Ben responded, reassuring his companion while giving the camera a severe gaze.

Goodness gracious, we're ready to leave. After laughing aloud at the spectacle occurring on the other side, Isabella finally spoke. "Don't look at me that way; I won't let you down." As soon as I get the alert for this month, I'll begin working on the project, she said as she cut the call and gave a wicked grin

It's time to kill some werewolves right now. Isabella, a renowned werewolf killer, grinned as even her own identity as a wolf had not been known. She wondered how her boss and Lord Ben would take it, if they knew that their Capable Slayer was a Werewolf herself, well the day would take care of itself, she thought out loud.

She grinned viciously as she got ready for her task.
