The Judas Invitation
Mohammed raised his head slowly, and the moment Kelly caught sight of his face, her heart skipped a beat. A cold chill surged down her spine, paralyzing her where she stood. Her mind was instantly flooded with horrifying images—memories from the hospital, where she had seen this man butcher trained guards as if they were made of paper. The screams, the blood, the lifeless corpses on the floor—they all came rushing back like a tidal wave.She rose to her feet slowly, almost mechanically, as though her body were acting on instinct alone. Her heart pounded inside her chest like a war drum, and beads of sweat cascaded down her forehead, dripping onto her already trembling hands.Mohammed walked toward her with measured, deliberate steps, and his men fell in behind him like silent shadows, their faces stoic, unreadable, and their weapons barely concealed under flowing garments.He continued his slow, steady approach until he stopped a few paces away from her, towering over her with an air
The Church
Aunt Kelly walked down the grand staircase, her steps graceful and composed. She was dressed in a long black gown that flowed elegantly around her ankles, and a black hat sat atop her carefully styled hair. Her face was heavy with makeup—dark eyeliner accentuated her eyes, and her lips were painted a bold crimson. In her right hand, she carried a small designer handbag, its sleek black surface gleaming faintly under the hallway lights.She approached Scott and came to a halt just a few paces away from him.Scott gave her a subtle once-over, his gaze moving from her head to toe. His face remained unreadable, a calm mask betraying nothing.“Shall we?” Kelly asked, her voice soft and pleasant.“You’re ready. Let’s go,” Scott replied coolly. Then he turned to Sullivan, who was already rising from the couch. “Sullivan, gather the boys. We’re leaving immediately.”But just as Sullivan was about to exit the living room, Kelly quickly interjected.“Lorenzo, wait. I don’t think you should brin
Shall we?
The sun had just set over the bustling city, casting a warm orange glow across the skyline, bathing the sleek, modern skyscrapers in a golden hue. Among them stood the towering building that housed Carden Energy Corporation, the flagship of Scott Carden’s corporate empire.Inside the top-floor office, Scott sat silently behind a large glass desk, his arms folded across his chest as he stared out the expansive window. His sharp eyes tracked the fading sun, yet his mind was far from the scenery. Thoughts of alliances, betrayals, and the uncertain future clouded his focus. A quiet storm brewed behind his expressionless face.His contemplation was interrupted by a soft knock on the heavy door.“Come in,” Scott called out, his voice calm but authoritative.The polished wooden door slid open, and the company’s secretary stepped inside. She wore a crisp white blouse and black pencil skirt, holding a tablet in her hands.“Mr. Lorenzo, you have a meeting scheduled with Mr. Alex Chen from Smart
Whispers behind the cross
The morning sun rose gently over the estate, casting golden rays that pierced through the half-drawn curtains of Scott’s bedroom. The warm light flickered across his face, shining directly into his eyes and gradually stirring him from slumber. He groaned softly, rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand before sitting up in bed.Still groggy, Scott swung his legs off the bed and stood. He moved towards the window with slow, deliberate steps, drawing the curtain slightly to the side for a clearer view of the sunlit estate beyond. Standing there for a few moments, he tilted his head side to side, cracking his neck softly as the early rays bathed his face. Thoughts began flooding his mind—serious thoughts, dangerous thoughts, lingering concerns from the night before.Moments later, he turned away and headed to the bathroom.Scott stepped under the shower, allowing the cold water to wash away the remnants of sleep clinging to his skin. The crisp sting of water jolted his senses to life.
Failed to obey
Kelly staggered backward as the deafening sound of the gunshot rang out. Her eyes widened in terror, and her gaze locked on the body of Mario lying lifelessly in a pool of blood. His eyes were still wide open, staring blankly at the night sky, and a thick stream of blood seeped from the gaping wound in his head—precisely where the bullet had torn through.Her heart pounded violently in her chest as she continued staring at the corpse, frozen in horror. Slowly, her trembling gaze rose to meet the eyes of the man who had pulled the trigger.His weapon was still raised—and now it was aimed directly at her.Kelly’s heart skipped a beat as the cold metal glinted in the moonlight, and she swallowed hard, her throat dry and tight. She instinctively scanned the area, desperate to find an escape route. But escape was a hopeless dream. They were surrounded—heavily armed men stood on all sides, watching her like hawks, their fingers already caressing their triggers.She knew that if she so much
Dead weight
"Oh my God! Oh my God!" Aunt Kelly gasped, panic choking her voice as her chest heaved up and down. Her heart thundered like a war drum, and beads of cold sweat streamed down her temples and across her face like a leaking faucet.Mario, tense behind the wheel, glanced sideways at her, his grip tightening on the steering wheel."What do we do, ma’am?" he asked quickly, his voice tight with dread. "If we get caught… it's over for us."Kelly didn’t answer right away. She sat there in frozen silence, her mind spinning violently as it tried to pull together a plan—any plan—that could get them out of the disaster unfolding in real time. The situation was slipping through her fingers like sand, and she knew it.Then, with a sharp inhale, she finally spoke."Step on it," she ordered through clenched teeth. "Push the accelerator. Go as fast as you can. We need to lose him, create enough distance, and then find a place to hide—somewhere dark, isolated. Somewhere he won’t see us."Mario’s eyebro
