I immediately took a quick draw to the pistol in my back then pointed it towards her gorgeous but deadly face.

"You bitch, I knew it." I said while targeting her head.

"Calm down, I still have this cigarette in my pocket, you smoke?."

"I don't have time to play with you."

I took a rope from my hand and tied her hands and feet while pointing my gun in her head. My heart was bursting with with fear and panic but I was able to secure her.

"Are you gonna rape me?." She asked.

"What? No! What the fuck! I'm not a psychorapist." I replied.

"Oh really, I thought you're the same with those vile pervert creatures who raped girls in their advantage."

"Sorry but I'm not the person that you're expecting."

"But if ever you're the one to take advantage, I'll say not bad for a rapist." She said while exhaling the smoke coming from the cigarette in her mouth.

"What? You sicko."

"Sorry, just a joke don't take it seriously."

"It's not a good thing for a lady to joke about rape." I explained.

I don't know what came over her when I said that, but she smiled while looking at the stars. She was genuinely happy and I can truly feel it based from the emotions that she was releasing.

"You know,  you're quite a gentleman despite being a rebel." She said to while again exhaling some smoke in the cold breezy air.

"Rebels are not always the evil creatures that you expect. Some of them are fighting for freedom and justice against the government who tried to abuse their power." I said to her.

"My mother was a maid in Don Felipe's house way back when she was alive. Despite the risk of being enslaved by the family, she took the risk of working inside the mansion in order to feed us. The Elibuende siblings were just kids when my mother took care of them. She was the one who took care of them. One time when my mother was bathing the siblings, she overheard a conversation about Don Felipe's plan on invading the Montreal village. One of the guards caught her and eventually she was punished. That time, Don Felipe was sexually active before compared now. After he tied my mother with rope naked. He did things to her."

"That's horrible." I replied.

"Yeah every night, Don Felipe was always there in her cell to rape her. The raping and punishing stuff lasted for 2 years, and even though we were aware about what happened to her, we couldn't do something out of fear. Then after all the things that Don Felipe did to her, my mother passed away in her cell because of malnutrition and abuse. I was still 6 years old when that sad moment happened, and until now I still can't forget that horrible feeling of losing someone you love because of a predator."

"Then what's the point of joining him as an assasin when he did horrible things to your family?." I asked.

"I don't know, I want money, my father is dead and I don't know where to find a job." She replied.

"There's a lot of opportunities out there. In the city where I lived, you can browse different kind of work without any restrictions. Out from all the jobs in the world why his assasin?." I asked once again.

"We can't escape here, we are basically prisoners of our own land. Escaping outside our town is punishable by death, so we lowlife piece of shit are forced to take jobs in this shitty town. You understand?."

"Yeah sorry."

"I still can't believe how an outsider like you entered here in our town without the guards noticing."

"Well, we discovered this place using a secret tunnel."

That time, I knew that revealing the secret passage from the village and to the goldmine was not a good idea, so I tried to keep it low.

"I know you've got plans to assassinate Don Felipe. Carry on I will not interrupt." She said.

"Sorry but I need to hide you."

"Yeah sure go ahead. Don't forget to release me after the plan."

In a small bush behind the garden, I carried the lady assasin to conceal her from the guards roaming in the area. I inserted back my pistol in my back and secretly went inside the mansion using an open window in the side.

Inside the mansion, the number of guards were huge. Every entrance of every room was filled with about 2 to 3 guards making the infiltration harder.

Finding Kikiri was my top priority on the moment. I fully understand that the chance of finding him was low but I didn't stop from my mission.

In the 2nd floor of the mansion, I found an unguarded room. When I opened the door, it wasn't lock so I went in.

Inside the room was full of boxes and unused furniture. The whole room was painted red so staying there while there's no light shining gave me a chilling vibe.

"This room searching is pointless, I can't find Kikiri like this." I said to myself in my mind.

When I felt that it was hopeless to find Kikiri physically, I decided to slowly go back to the garden where the party was held.

I was about to escape through the window when I stopped an open door with the lights still on. Curiosity was really on point, so I decided to take a peek inside.

Inside the room was a bed, a fancy bed to be exact. There was no one in the room so I went in. Compared to a regular room, the room was a bit nice and neat. The design was not exaggerating but it was nice.

"Must be a boy's bedroom."
