★WORRIED/CONFUSED★
NEXT MORNING**
Marissa stretched her body,feeling weak all over. She let out a gro-an as she finally opened her eyes,a gasp escape her li-ps immediately she realized she’s in Venom’s room. She shut her eyes back and everything she did last night started dancing in her head,she felt like becoming invisible.
“Get out and come back for your training in thirty minutes” Venom’s de-eper and cold voice made her jump out of the bed
“Good morning master” She greeted with a bow,it was so fast as if someone was chasing her
Venom looked at her and she bite her li-ps hardly,she knew she was in trouble already even without him saying a word.
“What are you waiting for?” Venom suddenly asked and she looked up
“Oh…..yeah…..bye…” She ran out of the room,almost hitting her head on the wall
She didn’t wait,she ran all the way to her room. She entered and began breathing heavily
“Marissa you’re so stupid!” She slap herself
She could remember how she kept calling his name and devouring his li-ps last night,but why is he not doing anything to her? Not even a scold? That’s new,did she escape this??
“Marissa” She mumbled and fell on the bed,her eyes began roaming about the room. She didn’t get to check it out yesterday,it’s really more big and cla-ssy than the maids room obviously. She stood up,she walked to the closet and opened,it’s empty,that’s because she’s got no clothes.
She sighed out and walked to the mirror to check out her face,she looked as pretty as ever even though she was just waking up. She arranged her hair and her eyes went to they closet again,she saw a package and she walked closer. She took it and opened,she brou-ght out a new towel,gym wear,and some toiletries. She released a little smile,she dropped the jogger and top on the bed and took the brush,she checked the time and gasped,she immediately ran into the bathroom after taking her towel
“Wow” She muttered as she entered,it’s more beautiful than she had thought
She quickly took off her clothes and went un-der the shower
***
Marissa walked out of her room and immediately tied her hair in a messy ponytail,she bumped into Galaxy and Chicago and she moved back
Galaxy and Chicago glared at her hatefully from her head down to her legs
“Well I think the maid uniform look better on you” Chicago said
“You look so tiny in this” Galaxy said and they both laughed
Marissa decided to ignore them,she made to leave but Galaxy grabbed her hair and pulled her back
“Where do you think you’re going? You think you’re free now? Such a dummy,this is just the beginning” Chicago said.
“You should enjoy your moments with Vee right now,but trust me it’s going to be over soon,I will make sure of that,trust me. Wait and see until he show you the devil he really is” Galaxy smi-rked
“Only a dummy will think Venom likes her,Venom isn’t someone like that”
“Have you heard of a heartless devil?? He will show himself to you soon…..”
“Do you feel good now?” Marissa asked
Galaxy and Chicago frowned
“I mean,I hope you feel better now after saying all those sh*ts. Of course I know he’s a devil,I know he doesn’t have a heart,and there’s nothing to show me anymore,I know exactly what he can do,I’ve witnessed and felt several tortures which none of you have ever experienced,I should be the one telling you how heartless he is. But still I don’t care,the fact remain that I am no more the same Marissa you know,don’t try this sh*ts with me anymore if you love your lives” Marissa said and pa-ssed their middle almost falling them down as she walked away
‘You did well’ she said to herself and immediately picked her race,she was already late and she knew that. She ran into the gym and met Venom waiting for her,he was smoking heavily
‘Isn’t it becoming too much?’ She thought before walking closer
“I’m sorry………”
“Shut up,next time I get here before you,consider yourself dead,do you fuc-king get that?!!” Venom shouted at her and she moved back
“It won’t happen again” She muttered
Venom threw off his cigarette and turned to her
“What do you have to work on before going into anything like fighting?” He threw the question and Marissa gulped
Venom run his hand into his hair
“Are you really this dumb?” He asked
Marissa bite her li-ps
“I’m sorry” she muttered sadly
“I told you yesterday,you have to workout on your……”
“Back,Arms,Shoulders,che-st,legs,and core” Marissa suddenly cut in
“Good” Venom roll his eyes
“We are starting from the back again…..come here” he said and Started walking until they got to where different sizes of lifts are
“Do you know what a deadlift is?” He asked and Marissa shook her head
Venom ignored her and his eyes run throu-ghthe lifts until it got to the smallest one
“Try lifting this up” He said ,hitting it with his leg
“Okay” Marissa muttered and exhaled before squ-atting,she got hold of the lift and tried to carry it but she fell down instead
Venom laughed shortly and bite his bott-om li-p
Marissa immediately got up
“I’m sorry” She muttered and tried carrying it again,this time she used all her strength and finally got to lift it up
“Do ten of that” Venom ordered
TWO HOURS LATER
Marissa fell weakly on the floor,she was sweating profusely from several workouts but seems Venom wasn’t ready to let her go
“What are you doing? Get up and continue” Venom snapped
“I want to rest…..please” Marissa muttered
“Shut up and get up,,you were acting crazy last night without asking for a rest” Venom said and Marissa looked at him
So he’s trying to punish her because of her craziness last night??
“Do you go around kis-sing everyone whenever you’re drunk? Huh?!” He shouted at her
“No…..I’m….”
“Shut up and continue” He cut her off
******
BLACK DIAMONDS**
Uranus dropped the papers on the table in front of Gunner and he looked up
“You asked me to search for any details about Pedro’s daughter” Uranus said,chewing her gum loudly
“So did you find anything?” Gunner asked
“I think Venom took her away,he didn’t kill her” Uranus replied
“What? So you mean,Pedro’s daughter is in the clan?” Gunner asked
“That’s right and also…Pedro’s body was found,but his wife’s body was nowhere to be found” Uranus said and Gunner frowned
“What are you talking about? You told me he killed them”
“Exactly,I don’t know what’s happening. Venom is unpredictable,what if he didn’t kill the wife?” Uranus asked and Gunner laughed
“Venom isn’t that merciful to spare the wife,so cut the crap. What did you find out about the daughter”
“Well,she’s quite young. She’s 20 and the only child,heard she’s in her last year in the university…her name is Marissa…..”
“Who cares about all that? Find out if she’s truly with Venom” Gunner snapped after checking Marissa’s pictures
“Why though?”
“What do you mean? If I find her,I’m going to turn her into one of my fuc-kmates. Her father have debts to pay to me also,if she act stubborn,I’m going to kill her” Pedro said
“Then why are you helping Marley? They both killed Venom’s parents” Uranus said
“Marley? You think I’m as dumb as that? I’m going to get all his money and kill him like a chicken” Gunner said and Uranus smiled
“Gosh you’re so smart” She said
“Don’t fool him,He’s not even half as smart as Venom” Midnight entered and Gunner frowned
“Don’t ever compare me to that kid! Do you un-derstand?!” He yelled,pointing his gun to her
“Get out and find out everything,prepare the guys for tonight also” He said to Uranus and she went out
******
COBRAS CLAN**
“Run fas-ter!” Venom said
Marissa increa-sed her speed on the treadmill,she was as good as dead,her whole body heating up,she was totally weak but Venom didn’t stop. She felt like dying
All of a sudden,Venom’s phone buzzed
He checked his phone and turned to Marissa
“You can leave” He muttered before going out of the gym
Marissa collap-sed on the floor instantly breathing heavily
Now she was wishing it’s Calix,she still can’t believe it’s almost four hours already. Is he planning to kill her?
**
Venom entered his office and turned on the laptop,A video started playing and Venom frowned as he watched a woman speaking. Just then Lex’s call came in and he answered immediately
“What is this about?” He asked
“You heard her,she’s being threatened that her daughter will be taken away from her even after returning the money she borrowed from the bastard” Lex said
“So how is that our business?” Venom asked
“It’s our business now since she paid the cash,we have to save her daughter this night. You should do that alone,I already informed Blade not to include you in the mission tonight,I sent all the details to you already,the bag will get to the clan this night also,keep it well in the sto-re” Lex explained before hanged up
Venom dropped his phone loudly and began checking everything Lex sent to him
******
POWER ROOM**
Everyone listened in total silence as Blade explained every details they have to know about the mission to them.
“So….Blaze and I are gonna be attending that party as normal guests. Phoenix and Galaxy,get the bag smartly without causing any commotion,it’s supposed to be a silent one,don’t alert trouble,make sure you are done before any opponents get there” Blade said
“Yes boss” Galaxy and Phoenix answered
“Athena and Chicago,stay somewhere perfect and direct them”
“Okay boss”
“Then…Seth and Idris,all you have to do is stay outside and fuc-k the bad boys up” Blade said
“That’s all,get ready by seven” He muttered and walked out
“Wow,I’m not included” Lilith roll her eyes
Echo didn’t wait,she walked out of the room
“fuc-k,I was expecting to hear my name so badly” Trace muttered
“Not so soon” Phoenix chuckled before leaving
******
EVENING**
Marissa stared as Venom used his helmet and climbed on his bike,he rode off speedily and she couldn’t help but wonder where he was off to.
“Hey” Blaze appeared behind her and she turned
“Oh wow,are you going somewhere?” She asked staring at Blaze outfit
“A party” Blaze replied
“Wow,outside the clan?” Marissa asked
“Yeah,it’s part of the mission. How do I look?” Blaze asked
“Perfect” Marissa replied and he smiled
“When I get back,I am going to tell you what I’ve been keeping” He said
“I can’t wait” Marissa smiled
His phone started buzzing
“I need to go” He muttered and before Marissa could nod,he cu-p-ped her cheek and pec-ked her li-ps.
He winked at her and walked away
Marissa gulped,that was unexpected
She bite her li-ps
******
8PM>BRENDT MANSION**
Blaze and Blade stepped down from the car gracefully,Both looking hot. They showed the guards their coded sign which meant that they were really invited,it’s a fake one though. They were allowed in,,they met a lot of guests already and Brendt especially.
“He have a problem with recognition” Blaze said to Blade as they approached him
After exchanging pleasantries,they all sat down
“You two look really young,Brendt have such good eyes” One of the men said
Blaze and Blade chuckled
“You may start” Blaze muttered into the aid in his ear which his hair covered
**
“Right,keep moving” Athena directed both Galaxy and Phoenix,she was on the house roof with Chicago
“We should be getting there now” Phoenix said
“Yes,just straight. It’s the last entrance”
Immediately,both Phoenix and Galaxy speed off but Phoenix got there first
“It’s coded” Phoenix said
“I already hacked it….53728,make sure the door doesn’t close,it’s dangerous,the hacked code can only work once so be careful” Chicago said and Phoenix immediately pressed the code and the door opened
Instantly,Galaxy rushed in and grabbed the bag which was lying helplessly on the table
Phoenix also entered and tried taking the bag from Galaxy
“Stop it” Galaxy snapped
“Are you crazy?! The bag!” Phoenix half yelled
“Then try taking it from me,dummy” Galaxy scoffed
“What are you guys doing? Get out of the room!” Athena shouted
“What’s going on? Are they fighting?” Chicago asked
“I can’t believe these two,they will ruin everything” Athena muttered
“Everyone,Pedro’s men are here. You should be done by now” they heard Seth’s voice and Athena immediately closed her laptop
“You heard that right? Get out of there” Chicago said to Phoenix and Galaxy before jumping down the roof with Athena.
They didn’t waste time before getting to the cars,Blade and Blaze also were out already,they watched as Pedro’s men went into the mansion.
Blade looked around and saw everyone else aside Phoenix
“Where’s Phoenix?” He asked Galaxy
“No idea” Galaxy replied and he frowned
“What do you mean?” He asked but didn’t wait for answer before getting out of the car
“You all should leave first,don’t wait” He said before running back in
As he ran,he kept on meeting Pedro’s men on the way who tried attacking but they couldn’t even hurt his finger,he fought them all and ended up killing two out of the men before he finally got to the door where he guessed Phoenix was.
He knocked
“Phoenix?” He called
“Blade,help me out…..I’m stuck” Phoenix also knocked back
“How the h*ll did you get stuck in here??” Blade snapped
“This is not the time to scold me,help me” she told him the code and immediately Blade pressed it
“It’s not working” he said
“fuc-k…..keep trying”
After about two attempts,the door finally opened and Phoenix came out,the first thing she did was throwing her sword right inside the guy who was trying to shoot Blade from the back.
The guy gro-aned and spit out blood before falling dead
Phoenix immediately removed her sword from his tummy and faced Blade back
“Let’s get out of here” Blade grabbed her hand
In two minutes,they were both in the car already,Phoenix didn’t say a word to him as he drove,she only had an angry face on
The moment they got back to the clan,Phoenix stepped down from the car,her eyes caught with Galaxy,she was standing beside Chicago. Phoenix dropped her sword before approaching her,if not,she wouldn’t be able to control the urge of killing her right away,her eyes are already red with anger.
She threw a punch on Galaxy’s face immediately she got to her and Galaxy landed on the ground
“Are you ctazy?!” Chicago tried moving closer,Phoenix gave her a flying kick In the tummy and her back hit the wall before she fell down on the ground and went unconscious.
Phoenix turned back to Galaxy and started throwing heavy punches on her face
“How fuc-king dare you try that sh*ts with me!!!”
“How dare you lock me up? You want me to get killed?!!!! How dare you!!” She kept on shouting,not stopping the beatings
Numbers of people watching the scene without trying to drag Phoenix away from Galaxy who was already half gone until Blaze showed up and pushed Phoenix off
“Are you planning to kill her?!”
“That will be better” Phoenix said and took her sword,she glared at the already unconscious Galaxy before walking away,everyone moving out of her way as she walked
The guards immediately carried Galaxy and Chicago away
**
Marissa sighed out for the umpteenth time,she have been waiting outside for a while now expecting Venom to return into the clan.
‘Is he okay? Why is he the only one who went?’ Different thoughts filled her mind,she was so worried that her heart was beating fast,what if he get hurt??
Suddenly she heard a step behind her and she immediately turned only to find Blaze
“Blaze” She called in a mutter
“Are you okay?” Blaze asked
“I’m….I’m fine” She said
Blaze moved closer to her and grabbed her hand
He took her to his room
Marissa looked around
“What are we doing here?” She asked nervously
Blaze draw her by the wai-st and slammed his li-ps on her own,Marissa’s eyes wide-ned immediately and she tried breaking the kis-s
“Blaze…….”
“I love you Marissa” Blaze cut her off and she gasped
Why does that sound so shocking??
“Huh?” She asked to be sure
“I love you,I want you to be mine. I want you beside me,please don’t turn me down,I’m really crazy about you Marissa” Blaze said while Marissa stared at him speechlessly
