Chapter 3

Inka's Point of View

"Who's this brother?" He asked

He looks like an anime character-- right! Tadashi Himada! The guy on baymax.

"None of your business." Read coldly answered and pulled me away. He literally dragged me away from that guy.

"Remember the code, brother!" He yelled then laughed.

Code? What code?

"Who was that?" I asked Read as we approached his diner area.

"My brother. Don't mind him, he just likes to mess around." He said and offered a seat to me.

I nodded and looked at the foods. He put some on my plate as I accepted it.

"After this, you could go back to my room since I have some things to do." He stated as he took a bite on his steak.

"Oh. Okay." I answered and nodded.

I never intended to sound disappointed but there's a part of me that I am. I don't know but I just feel safe when I'm with Read.

I haven't felt this ever since I ran away from my parents, every day feels like danger for me.

"You seem disappointed." He suddenly blurted out.

"Its nothing," I answered quickly and finished my food.

"Can I go back to your room now? I'm still kind a tired." I asked.

I looked at him and saw how his eyes turn cold. He nodded at me so I excused myself and went back to his room.

It was not that hard to find though since I'm good at remembering things.

I closed the door of Read's room and jumped on his bed. I heaved a sigh, Read should really stop doing this kind of things to me. I don't want to grow some feelings towards him.

I can feel it, the danger. I can feel how dangerous this place is, I can feel how dangerous Read is but whenever he's with me, I also feel secure.

With my heavy thoughts, I closed my eyes and went to dreamland.

**

*Glass Crashing*

I opened my eyes as I heard the noises around the house. I can feel my heart beating fast as fear slowly crept upon my system.

I pushed out my blanket and hopped off the bed. I walked silently towards the bedroom door and opened it a little.

It was dark outside the only source of light was the dimmed light on the paintings.

*Glass crashing*

*Groans*

What was that?

I went out of the room and followed the sounds. It was at the end of the hall, a double door was left open. I saw some shadows inside as the noises were getting louder.

"Hand it to me!" A deep voice asked. I heard another groan and another voice spoke.

"N-Never!" I knew that voice too well.

That's Read's brother!

"Fine then. Say hello to death for me." The guy said

I looked inside the room and saw the scene. The guy has his back on me as Read's brother saw me at the door.

His eyes widen and were about to say something but then a gunshot was heard.

I was frozen to my spot, fear had invaded my mind. I felt numb, my vision was clouded, all I could hear was my heartbeat and some ringing.

I saw how the life of Read's brother slowly left, I saw how he took his last breath.

The guy turned around and I saw how he smiled darkly. It was too dark to see his face clearly but because of the shining moon outside, I saw the bottom half of his face.

"Oh! So we do have a guest here." He stated and chuckled.

His deep voice reflected his dark plans. He smiled at me, an evil one.

"Who are you, darling?" He asked and walked towards me.

He asked me. He asked. I can't find my strength to talk. I was too scared, I don't know what to do anymore. It feels like my past is slowly crawling back at me.

I heard a gun ticked and next thing I know, he was already in front of me.

"You know what, I don't give a f*ck. You are not needed on earth anymore, darling. Say hello to God for me, okay?" He said that made me gulped.

I'm gonna die.

I am gonna die.

So I guess this is it?

I heard his chuckle and I saw how he was about to pull the trigger. I closed my eyes and welcomed death with open arms.

"INKA!"

*Gunshot*

Read's Point of View

"Sir!"

My third in command suddenly barged in my office. I looked at him and saw him looking all grim and nervous.

"Y-Your Main House is under attack, Sir!" He announced that made my blood ran cold.

Sh*t!

"Gather all of our men!"

He nodded and ran out. I stood up and took my guns and reloaded it.

F*ck! Inka is at my house! I just hope Ian is protecting her there.

I ran outside my quarters and saw my men rushing in and out of our weaponry room. Most of them are already running towards their car and trucks as I hopped inside my car and droved fast.

F*ck! I'll never forget myself if something happened to Inka nor to my brother!

Whoever might this foolish guy that attacked my Main House is requesting a death wish from the Berseker?

I stepped down on the gas as my car went on faster. Within 20 minutes, I arrived at my Main House and saw the mess.

My guards are all dead! I opened my door and saw a lot of blood and shattered glass. Sh*t!

My men surrounded my house and went in.

"Do not kill anyone! We need all information that we can get! Do I make myself clear?!"

They all agreed as I give them the signal they all attacked. I ran inside the house and up the stairs.

I went towards my room but Inka wasn't there. Where is she?!

F*ck it!

"INKA!" I shouted and looked for her.

I heard a gunshot from my brother's room so I ran.

I ran like my life depends on it, as I came near to his room, a dark scene unfolded in front of me.

Inka was lying unconscious at his door while Ian was lying at his own blood.

I went to Inka and felt her pulse. It was there, she's okay just unconscious. But Ian, my brother. He's gone.

"Men!" I yelled

A group of my men went to me and bowed their heads.

"Bring Ian's body to our quarters and clean all of the mess. Those who had been captured put them at our basement and chain them. I'll deal with them soon." I ordered

They all bowed their heads, I picked up Inka and brought her to my car. I'll bring her to the hospital to further check on her.

I gripped my steering wheel hard and stopped myself from shedding some tears.

"You had done well for protecting our Mafia, brother. I'll avenge your death. Don't worry." I uttered darkly and stepped on my gas.

They declared war than a war they will get.
