-CHAPTER THREE-
Shaking her hand Cate took the phone out of her pocket. She dialed her brother's number while sobbing.
She was sitting on a bench outside the mall, she couldn’t even reach the man because it quickly disappeared from her sight and she felt useless. He was as strong as Prick that he saw.
"O-oppa ..." She sniffed.
[Hecate? What's wrong?] He heard the crash as if the door had opened. [Is that Cate?] That was Talya's voice.
"Unnie ..."
[What the --- give me that.] He knew Talya took the phone from Oddy. [Are you crying, Cate?]
"Yes a-and I think ... I thin ---"
[Who the fuck made you cry, Hecate?] Oddy asked him a serious question and Talya immediately silenced him. [Come on, Cate. Tell me.]
"Oppa, Unnie, I saw k-kuya Prick. He's alive." She said while sobbing, she felt the hot liquid on her cheek.
There was a moment's silence on the other line before he heard Oddy's serious snort. [Hecate, he's in a better place now. Let's rest him in piece and move on.]
"No, oppa! I'm serious! I really saw him and even talk to him in two fucking times already!"
[Mouth, Cate!] Talya scolds him. [Maybe he just looks like her, Hecate.] Her older brother replied.
"B-but his voice is familiar." She suddenly lost her voice to defend herself that she had actually seen the man. He didn't think there were many similarities, what did he know if it was just a relative of Prick?
[I think you need to rest, Hecate. You're just tired. Take a break and don't go to Meyan's party later. I'm watching you, Hecate.] The older brother even threatened him.
She sighed, her tears welling up. He just wiped his wet cheek. "O-okay. Just kiss Thad for me. I'll hang up now. Bye."
Oddy and Talya were fully married six years ago. Thad or Thaddeus is their son. Her niece is only three years old but she sees that the girls will chase after her.
The couple is in Britain with Thad because Talya's cousin is already married. He also didn't know them very well so he didn't do any more research.
He was not in the mood to just go home. He reached out to helpers when he returned home. Without his parents as well as his younger brother Pollo. He is also a young man and he can handle himself so he doesn't have to worry anymore.
She opened her door's room. She patted Onas head before lying on the bed.
Prick Jonas Taranza. That was the name of the former ZECOND member. ZECOND is a gang of twelve members of which Oddy is in charge. The role of their organization is good so he is not against it.
Prick is the so -called Eight in the group. He had always agreed with the man, although sometimes they were like dogs and cats. He called her brother because he was three years older than her.
A hot liquid suddenly flow into her cheeks. She cries every time she remembers the man because of his death. No body was found because the man turned to ashes due to the explosion that took place, they did not even give him a good burial.
She shook her head. He shouldn’t have thought like that. He should move on. It has also been dead for 9 years, it has been gone for a long time. Nothing would happen if he just cried and cried.
He disobeyed Oddy's order not to go to Meyan's party. Her older brother was not at home so she had the courage to disobey him. One more, this is what he wants. To party!
She's wearing a black off-shoulder dress exposing her collar bone and her cleavage. She paired it with killer heels so that she would somehow grow taller. She just curled her hair down and then left it loose. She doesn't want make ups so what she put on her face is just powder and liptint.
She is confidently walking her way through Meyan's party. Meyan is one of her friends along with her twins Mezon and Mexon. The three are triplets while their mother is Mouie Polas.
"Oh my gosh! Here's the raising star of the night!" Meyan screamed to greet him so the attention of others in the party went to him.
She chuckled before kissing Meyan's cheek. "Congratulations for your achievement." She winked so Meyan laughed at them both.
"Thank you."
Mexon and Mezon saw him so they kissed him on the forehead as a greeting. It’s also a habit because that’s really how the twins are. Kiss the foreheads of women it respects.
"You want to eat?" Julie, her gay cousin, asked.
(3.1)
He just shook his head. "No, I want to drink."
"Just a cocktail for you, Cate." Levi said that he is also a friend of his older brother.
She pouted. "Cocktail ?!"
"No hard drinks. Your older brother might be mad at me." Her eyes widened, the man noticed the masculinity of her eyes so he smiled. "Oh he knows. He knows you're stubborn and you won't follow him so he just handed you over to me. Do you know I even made it hard for him to convince me ---"
"Stop." When he stopped, he automatically closed his mouth.
While the music was loud, everyone danced for him. He drinks a cocktail while keeping up with the beat of the music. She is swaying her hips and nodding her head. He could no longer resist and he also mingled with people who seemed greedy to dance in the middle.
She felt a hand touched her butt. He sighed before facing it. The man just grinned after running. What the fuck?
"No! You can't escape from me, you fucking asshole!" She shouted even though she knew it couldn't be heard because of the loud music. He also ran to follow it.
After this, he didn't notice that he had left the main event of Meyan's party and went to the garden. She looked for the man to hold her ass, she wouldn't let it go. She's furious. Who wouldn't?
Maybe it ran away because it knew what it could do. She's a black belter. He can handle even a man. He didn't stop.
"X, the target is is nowhere to be found."
Her forehead creased. What target? Based on its voice, it will grow.
"What ?!" A familiar voice suddenly echoed in her ears. She heard his familiar voice again. The only difference is that his voice is bigger and fuller now than before.
He slowly walked towards the voice he could hear. His eyes narrowed behind the tree. She walked slower so they won't hear her footstep.
"I'm sorry, X."
"Damn!" Cate was startled to the stand when he shouted. "Let's leave this place! We won't get anything out of it!"
She bit her lower lip before peeking. She gulped when she saw his face again. He did notice that they were similar to Prick but there were also differences. She felt the corner of her eye heat up.
His name is X not Prick.
'But he really reminds me of Kuya Prick.'
They acted and left. His fist clenched as he stared at the receding bulk of them. He will follow them secretly.
Because she wants to know him more.
