Blades & Roses

Blood. Blood was dripping from my forehead. Panting, I tried to catch my breath. For a minute, I was tempted to look back and see if the Japanese Yakuza was chasing after me. I muttered a curse, trudging through the quiet street, making sure to hide in the shadows, avoiding all streetlights. Stupid Japanese Mafia Boss and his claim to rule the mafia world. But I will never let him. Not after killing my entire family. Thinking about them, a brief flashback of my father screaming for me to flee before a bullet passed through his head, instantly ending his life, appeared in my line of vision. I clenched my hands into fists, sadness and fury burning inside me. I will make sure that the Japanese Mafia will pay for what they did. I will avenge my father. My family. From this day forward, they have declared war. And war they shall have. *** Cover Image from Google

Never to forget

MARGAUX

Ellaine clung to me tightly. She clung to me and cried for her mother, who was immediately brought to the emergency room of the nearest hospital.

It wasn't until her father came when she stopped crying. Eventually, she fell asleep in his arms.

I could have left them then. But catching sight of Paul's devastated expression, I stayed. Against my better judgment, too.

With his daughter slumped over his shoulders, sitting outside the ER, I took a deep breath.

"How sick is she?"

"Cancer. At the very progressive stage." I immediately felt sorry for their daughter. If her mother doesn't survive, she'd be affected the most. It would scar for life.

I would know.

"I'm sorry to hear that."

Paul let out a sigh. He stared at me. It was only then when I noticed the dark circles under his eyes.

He must have lost sleep for several nights.
