Rise of the Hidden Queen

“You want to marry me?" Luna raised her brows looking straight into the bottomless ocean blue eyes of the world-renowned bachelor sitting in front of her. He wanted to marry her? An ordinary abandoned kid who was still in school? With a single word from him, women of all sizes and backgrounds would be ready to marry him yet he wanted her? That was interesting~ Aiden saw the tiny glint of tease in her eyes despite the serious and confused words she seemed to let out. "It's a marriage of mutual benefit." Luna quietly nodded her head at his words. Indeed. It was a marriage that would benefit both of them. She needed his support at the moment to get avoid trouble and get higher while he needed her to... sleep. Since the first time he met her, he had developed severe insomnia and his disgust towards other people and germs intensified! Before he could just avoid people and be done with it not that he was bothered about getting close to people but now he couldn't even sleep for 2-3 days in a row! "I can marry you Mr. Lee, but..." Luna put a hand on the cup of tea in front of her. She slid her fingers around the rim of the cup while her body leaned towards the table, seemingly getting closer to the man. "will you be okay marrying me? We all want a pleasurable sex life in this arrangement, yes?" Aiden saw the glint in her eyes and the tease that came along with it. Her tastes were very... unique. Though he couldn't say if he disliked it or not at the very least he seemed okay doing it with her? Through gritted teeth and slightly pink ears, Aiden spit out his words. "Let's have a pleasant marriage, Ms. Grey." Luna let out a bright smile. "Of course, Mr. Lee." 'Oh, it will be a very pleasant marriage~' When Aiden read those unspoken words that seemed to be attacking him through her bright eyes, he fell silent.

33. District 28

A nurse had already come by to check when Luna rang the bell but when she saw Lillian's state, she ran out to bring more doctors. When Luna yelled out, the doctors were already at the door with many medical tools in hand.

Three nurses went up and took over Lillian's body while Luna was pushed back so as not to hinder their emergency treatment on Lillian.

Standing a few feet ahead of the bed, Luna watched as the doctors and nurses yelled out orders one after another. Within a matter of minutes, Luna was asked to sign some emergency surgery papers.

Not daring to delay the treatment longer than necessary, Luna signed the papers, and soon after the light to the surgery room turned on while she stood in front of it, staring dazedly into the closed doors.

Minutes passed by but she still stood there silently waiting for some news.

Positive news.

News that Lillian would be alright.

Twenty minutes later, Luna heard a loud 'ding' right next to her ears. She could no longer see the door clearly as a blue transparent panel popped right in front of her.

[Ding! Regular Mission Unlocked: Save Rohan]

[Mission reward: Earn 4,200 points]

[Mission Failure Punishment: Inert legs for 1 week. Lose 4,200 points]

On the panel was a mini-screen CCTV footage that showed a black van that was traveling on the highway among side several other cars.

Sophia clicked on the screen, after which the CCTV screen became full-screen. She lifted her hands again and zoomed in on the van. The black van became transparent as the camera showed the inside of the van.

There was a total of 7 people inside the car. All of them were men.

Two were in the front, the rest five was in the back. All of them had similar bulky and muscular figures so the thin figure in between the four bulky men at the back seats stood out the most. That was Rohan.

His shirt was ripped and so were his faded jeans. From the huge mess of his clothes, it was as though they trampled all over him in many ways. Sophia's eyes narrowed as she watched the man chat away cheerily as though they had just won the lottery.

Double-clicking the screen, the CCTV zoomed out of the van and she was greeted with the sight of the van getting off the highway and into the rural side of Niya City. Sliding her finger to the left, Sophia was greeted with a map of Niya City.

The map was covered hundreds of miles in distance as the red and blue dot on the map were quite far apart. In District 18, there was a small blue dot. The rural side of Niya City was located at the very South and West of the city.

District 18 was mostly north whereas the red dot was constantly moving towards the Southside of the City. Judging from the position on the map, it had already entered District 28, the last district in the South. It was the farthest from the city and had the least amount of people residing in the area among all other rural areas.

Sophia slid her finger to the right and double-clicked the Mission panel. A big-timer popped up.

[00:44: 26]

The distance from District 18 to 28 was roughly 300 miles! She had less than an hour to take action and save Rohan! If she was careless, the consequences of it would be unimaginable. She didn't know what those people planned to do with Rohan.

Were they going to just beat him up like the other few times they took him or were they going to go overboard? The last time she got a mission to save Rohan, the end result would've been his death had she not gone to save him. Did that mean that he was going to die this time?

Sophia's pupils shrunk as she thought of this possibility. No matter what happened she couldn't let Rohan die!

After a last meaningful glance towards the door, Sophia turned around and left the hospital.

She had her motorbike with her since she had visited the Five Brothers Corp that morning. Quickly igniting the engine, she swiftly made her way through the streets following the blue arrows that guided her way.

Her speed was by no means slow. She was going over 300 mph and it was way over the limit of these regular street roads. However, not one siren rang behind her.

It was probably a perk of going on a mission. She didn't have to bother with the police and these simple regulations as long as she was not causing public havoc, which she was not. The CCTV's were blind to fast speed hence not one person behind the screen realized an abnormality.

Sophia swerved the black motorbike left and right as she encountered cars in front of her.

Half an hour later, Sophia had successfully entered District 28.

Following the system map, she had carefully made her way towards the place where the people took Rohan.

Traveling at 95 mph Sophia reached her destination very quietly within ten minutes. The motorbike was rather quiet the entire way besides the low growl that sounded quite like the purring of a cat.

Getting off the bike and stealthily making her way towards the big 'barn'. Next to it was a small two-story house while many crop fields surrounded these two buildings.

Sophia leaned against the side of the barn-like garage. After taking a quick glance around the area, Sophia pulled up the System Panel and looked at the CCTV footage.

Currently, the seven men were all scattered around the room doing various things to keep themselves entertained. Some played cards while the others had their food and drank alcohol.

In the middle of the room, there was a long pole that was attached to the ceiling. Rohan was tied up to the poll and his head was leaning to the side as though he had no strength left at all. Or rather he was still unconscious at the moment.

The temperature around Sophia got a few degrees lower as she narrowed her eyes. Double-clicking the screen, Sophia saw that she only had about three minutes left to get ready.

Sophia used the CCTV footage to look around the area and find something to use during the rescue. As she looked around, Sophia heard some muffled voices coming from inside the barn. Switching the CCTV focus to inside the building, Sophia saw two of the bulky men surrounding Rohan as he stirred.

They were clapping their hands and kicking Rohan's legs, trying to wake him up sooner.

Within a matter of seconds, Rohan's face scrunched up as he slowly opened his eyes.

The rest of the men also stopped whatever they were doing and looked over. Soon enough they all decided to join in on the fun, hence they dropped everything and went to a corner where a table and a rack held different weapons.

Grabbing their desired weapon, they all gathered around the now fully awake Rohan who had started to tremble at the sight of these few men.
