130: News From Madrid
They all drank while screaming sounds of excitement. One by one, they strode towards the newly inducted members and embraced them alongside a few words of kindness and encouragement.The love birds blushed as they approached them. Beyond the chants and cheering. They didn't have an iota of doubt that every single person in the living room would protect them no matter the odds— likewise.Achilles was the last to stride towards them and deliberately placed his wine glass on their chests before hugging them.The Faithfuls screamed in delight, “Yeahhhh!”The stain of joyous tears was still evident on Dora's face. She'd have a chance to work with her older sister in perfect proximity. The wedding plans would remain pending until the coast was clear.Achilles went back to the high chair and signaled them all to have their seats. He intended to have an exclusive meeting much later with Dora and Anthony where he'd explain things in detail.Achilles cleared his throat once again. “I want to he
129: Dear Loyalists
The Faithfuls, Dora, and Anthony rose to their feet as warm chills cascaded on their shoulders while they let out beautiful smiles.Brig. Rachael Beauty exclaimed in her heart, ‘Yes! Finally!’Dora Beauty was overwhelmed by the Warlord's honorable words and couldn't contain the growing emotions.Before they could spell Jack, she broke me into tears of joy while smiling sheepishly.Anthony Jordan already understood what was unfolding and didn't hesitate to grace her with a passionate hug alongside a few tender kisses.The Faithfuls blushed uncontrollably and teased in unison, “Awwwn! Our Lovebirds! Go get a room…”The atmosphere was thrust into delightful laughter as they welcomed them again. This time around as a bona fide member of the Faithful.While the teasing was ongoing, Achilles winked at Margaret. In response, she understood the signal and went to fetch a bottle of rich wine to make the induction official.While on that, Brig. Stones, seeing Margaret with a wine, understood th
128: Unmasking
Achilles halted on the thought of bringing the love birds into the penthouse until he was certain where their loyalty lay.That Dora was Rachael's younger sister didn't automatically mean the Warlord must trust them and open his arms to receive them into the penthouse.One wrong move could compromise everything they had worked for in the past demanding months and Achilles can't afford to make such mistakes.The Warlord eavesdropping on the conversation between one of the assassins and Anthony made him realize how far the love birds could go in protecting his identity even if their lives would be cut short.Right there he knew it was high time he did the right thing before the cartel would exterminate them and find out Anthony wasn't skilled in martial arts.Achilles waited for almost a minute for his last words to sink in for a better effect.“I know y'all have questions. Before you walk me in on what happened in Madrid. It's high time I did the necessary.”Achilles used over five min
127: A New Home
Five minutes later Anthony Jordan screeched the car to a halt at the exact location he was instructed. It wasn't more than ninety seconds and Achilles marched the car brake behind Anthony's.Immediately Achilles buzzed his phone with a call. Before Anthony exited the apartment, he had instructed Anthony not to alight from the car once he got to the meet-up location.Achilles inquired on the call, “You’re certain they lost you. Huh?”Without hesitation, Anthony responded, “Positive Warlord. We did as you instructed. Hundred percent.”Achilles nodded. He deliberately trailed from behind just in case the troop of assassins was still tailing Anthony. He would have sent them to the underworld if that were the situation.Dora finally parted her lips, “What's the next play?”She believed the Warlord didn't rescue them from a near assassination plot, and get them out of the compromised apartment without having a side-plan in progress.Achilles cleared his throat. “Accelerate the car engine an
126: Cartel's Blindspot
Without hesitation, the assassin breathed out, “Yes. We're certain about this.”Calderon bounced back to words with his eyes squinting, “Any fingerprints of any kind?”Isabelle's face flushed with a dark expression. “You had better have an answer to that.”“Yes, we do. We ran a thorough check on the syringes and other objects in the apartment. There's no doubt that Anthony and Dora were involved in this.”The cartel's top executives exchanged knowing eye contact while confirming their initial suspicion about Dora supposedly also being a trained martial queen.The bigger question had been: was she tutored by her older sister, Brig. Rachael Beauty?Escobar took charge of the floor and engaged the assassin, “You're meticulously certain that no other fingerprints were found in the dead scene?”The chief enforcer wasn't leaving anything by chance and wanted to be certain before believing completely. He still didn't understand how Anthony would be able to eliminate all the assassins sent on
125: Unsolicited Humor
Victor Escobar stared at their faces and they understood the message without spilling it out.Some weeks ago after the first set of dead assassins failed to exterminate Anthony Jordan after they discovered he was snooping around to garner evidence about the illegal market business.They uncovered that his fiancée was Dora Beauty, the younger sister of Brigadier Rachael Beauty, which led to an inconclusive stance on whether she was involved in the whole fiasco.Calderon stroked his beard and chimed in, “I don't really think Rachael is ultimately involved in this.”Isabelle uttered almost immediately with words tugged in tease, “uh-huh. Because she's been your crush for the longest?”The seriousness clung to the atmosphere slightly subsided to a friendly aura.Marcel Vidal intensified the tease by parting his lips while staring at Calderon, “Hey, man. How long would you keep this feeling suppressed? Go tell the beautiful lady how you feel about her.”Isabelle and Marcel muffled a chuckl
