BAR**
Phoenix was there sitting and drinking all alone,she was so de-eper in thought she didn’t notice when Seth sat down beside her
“Why do you keep on drinking?” Seth asked and she faced him
“I have alot of things on my mind” she muttered and took a long gulp from the gla-ss
“Wanna talk about it?” Seth asked and she smiled
“Are you sure you want to know?” She asked
Seth nodded
“Honestly,it’s a secret. But maybe I might feel better after telling someone right?” She asked
“I guess it’s serious” Seth said
Phoenix run her hand throu-ghher hair before looking at Seth again
“I’m in love with Blade” She blurted out at once
“I’ve been keeping it for such a long time and it’s killing me already,but then…he doesn’t even care about me” Phoenix chuckled and gulped down the whole content in her gla-ss and started pouring another one.
Seth only stared at her speechlessly,he could feel himself getting weak. So he doesn’t have any chance at all?? He thought she was just being the ha-rd girl,but it’s all because she’s in love with someone else? Not just someone,his boss??
“Why are you not saying anything? You said I should tell you” Phoenix said
Seth bite her li-ps and looked away for a second before facing her again with a fake smile
“It’s not bad falling in love with someone” he muttered
“He doesn’t feel the same” Phoenix shook her head
“You can’t be sure of that,He’s definitely someone who prefer to hide his real feelings” Seth muttered
“Really? You think,he might like me too?” Phoenix asked
“Of course,I mean..who wouldn’t like you??” Seth said and she smiled
“You’re not trying to make me feel better right?” She raised her brows
“Of course not,you’re pretty,smart,intelligent,interesting,cute,I’m sure he wouldn’t have a choice later,don’t give up and you don’t have to keep drinking or thinking about it,it’s not really cool” Seth said
“I….” She was still saying when Seth got up
“Are you leaving?” She asked
“Yes I have some unfinished business to do,,goodnight” he smiled and immediately walked out of the bar
Phoenix sighed out,but thinking about what Seth said,what if it’s true??
**
Seth walked out of the bar with an heavy heart,he wasn’t himself at all. The fact that he’s fallen in love with her that it’s ha-rd going back.
He stopped walking,the way his heart was racing was enough to make him weak. He held the nearest pole to him and tears rolled down his eyes,he didn’t know heartbreak hurts this way,the feeling is so cr@zy.
“Ahhhg” he held his che-st
Unstoppable tears rolling down his eyes
Jinx who was pa-ssing by suddenly rushed to him
“Are you okay?” She asked looking worried
“Seth” She called and tou-ched his che-st but was more shocked to see the tears
Seth bent down and continue crying
“What happened?” Jinx asked and bent next to him,she ru-bbed his back
“Say something please” She said
“My heart” Seth struggled to speak up
“It hurts……my heart is broken…..” Seth said in tears
Jinx didn’t say anything else,she only kept on patting his back watching him cry.
“I feel like dying” Seth muttered
“You will be fine” Jinx finally said
Seth wiped his tears and looked at Jinx
“Do you know me?” He asked
Jinx dropped her hand from his back
“I’m asking because,I’ve never seen you here” He said and got up
Jinx also stood up
“No,I don’t know you. I was just worried something happened to you,I’m just a maid here.” she bowed and immediately walked away

MORNING>DINNING HALL**
“Why is everyone quiet this morning?” Lilith spoke up as they eat
“Coz…the noise makers have been placed in their places” Echo smi-rked and Chicago looked up
“You can do well by mentioning names,don’t you think?” She asked
“Oh,do you feel pained by my words? Sorry,I’m sorry” Echo said sarcastically
“Who are the noise makers? Just spill it out” Chicago scoffed
Athena pat Echo’s hair
“Don’t say a word” she said
Echo roll her eyes and continue eating
“Where’s Blaze and Phoenix?” Idris asked
“Who knows” Athena sighed
“Water!!” Chicago suddenly shouted and everyone looked up but ignored her again
Jinx walked to her,as she was about pouring the water into her gla-ss,her eyes caught with Seth who was looking too moody to ignore,he had the sad face on,he wasn’t eating either.
Jinx didn’t know when the water turned from her hand and poured all over Chicago who got up immediately
“Are you crazy?!!” She yelled and before Jinx could say a word,an heavy slap landed on her face
“How dare you!!” Chicago shouted as Jinx held her burning cheek
“Get lost!!! Now!!”
Jinx bite her li-ps trying to control her tears,she ran out of the hall
“You don’t have to slap her,just because she’s a maid,that’s bad” Idris said
“Don’t fuc-king step into my business okay?!” Chicago snapped and walked out angrily
Seth on the other hand wasn’t even listening at all,he was in his own world
“Why do you keep playing with your food? Are you okay?” Idris asked beside Seth
“Don’t mind me,I will be fine” Seth muttered
“You look like someone who got dumped,I can’t remember you having a girlfriend tho” Athena said
“I think….crushing is worst than dating. My heart is betraying me” Seth sighed and got up
“See you guys later” he muttered and walked out gently
“Wow,does anyone know Seth’s crush?” Lilith asked
“Who else? Phoenix of course” Echo replied
“Oh my God” Lilith’s eyes wide-ned
******
GYM**
Marissa watched in total amazement as Venom throw heavy punches to the punch bag nonstop
Her li-ps parted in half while her eyes followed every moves.
Venom suddenly stopped and turned back
“Water” He said
“Yes master” she immediately opened the cover of the bottle and handed it to him
Marissa’s eyes landed on his s-exy che-st and bite her li-ps,how can he look so fuc-king hot even while working out??
She didn’t know when Venom stopped drinking the water and caught her staring
“Don’t shorten your death” Venom said and Marissa immediately looked away
“I’m sorry” She muttered and took the bottle
Just then,Venom’s phone buzzed,he took it and checked.
He walked out of the gym instantly leaving Marissa.
She sighed sadly and faced the punch bag
Her head went to how Venom was punching and a silly thought came in. She moved closer and punched the bag at once in a for-ceful way
“Ouch!!!” She screamed out as she landed on her bu-tt
“Ouch” She held her hand in pain
Venom came back in and met her on the floor,
Marissa immediately got up and pretended as if nothing happened
Venom scoffed and took whatever he came back for and then left again
“This is not for you Marissa,not for you” She muttered and walked out of the gym
******
GALAXY’S ROOM**
“What are you planning? You are really going to keep quiet? I hate seeing that girl and you know that” Chicago said and Galaxy turned her face from the mirror
She was making up
“You think I’m that stupid to give up? I won’t stop until that witch leaves this clan or probably die” Galaxy scoffed
“How? What are you planning to do?” Chicago asked
“Well,since she’s not going to die in Vee’s hands,then our only option is godfather,just watch me,even Venom won’t be able to save her from godfather” Galaxy smi-rked
******
LEX’S APARTMENT**
Venom and Blade entered at the same time,they met Lex in the living room
“You two are late” Lex said
“We came here as soon as we saw your text” Blade muttered
“Here” Lex showed them the bag on the table,it’s the same bag they brou-ght last night
“What,are you finally returning it to the rightful owner like you said?” Venom asked
“Yes,by seven,I will give you the location” Lex said
“Is that all?” Blade got up and carried the bag
“You can go” Lex said
Venom and Blade walked out
“It’s always about business to him,I thought it’s something different this time” Venom muttered and Blade scoffed
“What do you expect?”
“See you by seven” Venom said and they parted ways
******
GARDEN**
Marissa was busy watering the flowers when someone hug-ged her from the back,she froze and the watering can dropped from her hand
“Wait,are you scared?” Blaze asked and made her to face him
“Blaze” Marissa called still looking shocked
“Not Blazzy?” Blaze raised his brows
“I was just…surprised” She muttered
Blaze smiled
“I could really Mistake you for a flower,you’re so pretty” he said and ruffled her hair
Marissa blus-hed
“Your cheeks are red” Blaze teased
“This isn’t necessary okay?” Marissa scoffed and he laughed
“Should I help you?” Blaze took the watering can
“You don’t have to,I will be done soon” Marissa tried taking it back but he shifted
“Just Watch me princess” Blaze said
“Fine” Marissa said
They kept on talking and laughing while Blaze watered the flowers and finally he was done
They both sat down on the bench in the garden
“The weather look so cool” Marissa muttered and turned to see Blaze staring at her
“You wanted to tell me something….”
“Not now” Blaze said
“But,you were going to tell me if your godfather didn’t appear” Marissa said
“I just…suddenly lost my boldness” Blaze muttered
“Do you need boldness to tell me anything? I thought we are friends” Marissa said
“Don’t worry,I will tell you later okay?” Blaze rou-ghher hair
******
7PM**
Galaxy walked out of her room and saw Phoenix coming,she looked away
“Oh wow,that’s new. The Galaxy I know wouldn’t look away first,what are you planning this time?” Phoenix asked and Galaxy glared at her
“Stay away from me” She Snapped and walked away
She saw Blade and Venom getting into the car and they drove out
She released a smile
This is just,perfect
She went straight to Lex’s apartment,the door was opened for her since she already informed him earlier.
She met Lex in the balcony,smoking and drinking
“godfather…I’m here” She bowed and Lex turned
“Yes?? What do you have to tell me?” He asked
“It’s about Pedro’s daughter” She replied and Lex raised his brows looking interested
“What about her?” He asked
“I’m sure you haven’t seen her yet” Galaxy muttered and immediately brou-ght out her phone
“Here” She showed Lex the picture of Marissa
“I’m saying….she’s the maid Smith tried having se-x with but Venom didn’t allow it,he choose to make him leave instead of giving her to him….she’s the same reason why I was punished yesterday godfather….in my own view,I think you need to stop him,He’s beginning to pity her,I think he has forgotten who her father is…Pedro’s daughter shouldn’t be happy as long as she’s in this clan,she need to pay for her Father’s sin godfather,if possible she should be killed before she gets Venom’s heart completely”
“Who said that’s going to happen?” Lex Snapped angrily
“That’s why I’m here” Galaxy muttered
Lex brou-ght out his phone and dialed a number
“Bring Pedro’s daughter to me,right now” he ordered on the phone in his de-eper voice
Galaxy smiled
“Then….I will take my leave now godfather” She bowed and immediately walked away
Minutes later,Marissa was dragged in and thrown on the ground
She gasped out loudly when she saw Lex
“How dare you!” Lex grabbed her ne-ck and pushed her against the wall,choking her
Marissa struggled from his ti-ght grip on her ne-ck,gasping for breath
“Who the h”ll do you think you are in this clan?? Who!!” He ti-ghtened his grip more
Marisa’s face was turning red already
“You’re Pedro’s daughter,the clan’s greatest enemy,how dare you walk around the clan looking fine??!” He released her ne-ck at once and Marissa fell on the floor coughing out,blood running down from her nose
Lex faced the guards
“Take her,lock her up in the de-eperest un-derground prison and make sure nobody finds her there,not even Venom himself” Lex ordered
“Yes my lord” The guards immediately carried Marissa
“No….please….”
“Shut up!!!” The guard hit her head with his gun and she pa-ssed out instantly
They took her away
