134: Eyes On Targets
Achilles beamed and leaned from his high chair. Dora was spilling the exact thing he discussed with George weeks ago after they realized Victoria was his stepmother.Achilles knew George was still battling with the trauma of what she had done while married to his late father.The Warlord deliberately allowed him to think things through and make up his mind on the battle ahead.In barely an hour of the newly inducted members. Dora could sense the doubt and fear George was wrestling with.Brig. Stones remained stunned and wondered how she meticulously read through his tone. At least he thought Rachael could have whispered a word about him to Dora, but on second thought, it dawned on him that nothing of such happened.He had to inquire, “Wow… how did you?—”Dora politely interjected, “Because my older sister and I also had a step-mother. She might be dead but the images of how horribly she treated us still flash once in a while.”The atmosphere flushed into subtle emotions as Dora and Ra
133: Lovebirds&Male-brigadiers
The curiosity in the room intensified after Ms. Julian's last words. She had been in steady communication with the sources in Liverpool, hence, it was expected she'd have more information on the unfolding events.Achilles gave a signal for her to continue for better clarity, as time mightn't be on their side.Anthony and Dora, who were barely inducted thirty minutes ago, were already hooked to know all therein about the struggle for power between Felix Jacobs and Victoria Stones.Brig. Stone’s face was contorted with a frown. He had had enough time to ponder about his step-mother and it'd end in one outcome: an inevitable battle!Margaret cleared her throat. “Our sources detected an ambush shortly before the rooftop meeting commenced.”Her words echoed across the room and had the Faithfuls’ faces flushed with confusion.Brig. Beauty was the first to make an inquiry, “An ambush? Didn't they agree on a suitable meet-up location?”Her question resonated with others as they nodded to supp
132: Power Loggerheads
The complicated smirk found on Achilles' face wavered into a serious expression.Margaret cleared her throat while her chest skipped nonstop, wondering what had happened earlier.However, she managed to get a grip of herself and readjusted while leaning from her seat.“Yes. We have further information and from a thorough spying— we discovered the gang that pulled the trigger was positioned and sanctioned by Abel's younger brother, Felix Jacobs.”Achilles nodded with a scoff. “As expected. Felix would do whatever was necessary to protect his brother's location to avoid being a pawn in someone's game.”He maintained his attention to Margaret. “The assassinated gang was from which plug? Oh, please, don't tell me you've got no clue.”Margaret cleared her throat the second time within two minutes and stood with her phone.Achilles stared at her with anticipation. He knew how vital it was to figure out the other team player.Margaret took a quick glance at everyone in the living room before
131: Margaret's Feelings
The Warlord hummed one of his favorite classics while fetching another shot of the rich wine.They all watched him with mixed emotions as they entertained silent questions:‘Hmm. The Warlord seems relaxed about the news from Madrid. Has he got a plan or something? Where exactly did he head out to?’Achilles had deliberately kept his meeting with the Prime Minister and his older brother, Mr. Montoya untold. Not because he didn't trust the Faithfuls, but it was all about timing, and he thought the time hadn't clicked yet.Achilles returned to his high chair with his legs crossed, his countenance devoid of tension or suspense.Finally, he broke the silence knowing the Faithfuls should have nursed silent thoughts:“Abel Hitler's fake death scheme wasn't orchestrated by like-minded personalities. Those involved certainly share opposite interests, motives, and wills.”The Faithfuls maintained keen attention on Achilles. His swiftness in catching up with the Madrid news had been impressive.
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
