4 Dark Kings

Dark 32: Hatred

Black's POV

"Are you sure? Generals are supposed to hide their identities, even to their personal reapers and informants."

"I know. But it's still our choice," I said. "And besides, Razed is harmless. He can fight but not that much. He's just an Intel."

Ethan just shrugged and sighed.

Well, it's already six in the morning but we still have an hour before class starts. I told Razed to come here early so we can discuss our plans regarding the heiresses' house. But the thing is, we cannot boss him around not unless I tell him that I'm his master.

Ethan is worrying about that since Razed might use my identity to his own benefits. But I don't think he'll ever do that.

We went back to the living room and saw Stephen slowly walking around Razed with narrowed eyes. Giovanni is just shaking his head at the corner.

"Master?"

He looked at me and I just nodded.

"Take a sit."

He looks hesitant at first but also obeyed. We all sat down as well while Stephen is still looking at him using his skeptical eyes.

"Mapagkakatiwalaan ka naman, 'di ba?" Stephen asked. "Hindi porket alam mo na ngayon kung sino si Black, gagamitin mo na 'yon para sa sarili mo."

Razed immediately shook his head. He seems nervous right now.

"I-I won't do that," he said. "I'm loyal to him and I won't do anything without his consent. And since I now know that you are his allies, you're my masters from now on."

Razed stood up and even bowed to them. The three looked at each other, obviously not expecting that.

"H-hindi mo naman kailangang yumuko," Giovanni said. "But I really hope we can trust you."

"That's for sure, Master."

"Master daw oh!"

Stephen laughed hard so Ethan ssh-ed him down. Kaagad din naman siyang natahimik habang sinenyasan ko si Razed na umupo ulit.

He smiled and obliged. Well, I guess we won't have any problems with him.

"First, I want you to promise us you won't tell this to anyone. We are going to enter the heiresses' house because of personal reasons," I said. "And once the organization find out about this, we'll be dead."

He nodded. "I understand, Master."

"We are giving you the permission to decline if you don't want the job. We are not forcing you," Ethan said but Razed just shook his head.

"Like what I said, Master, I'm loyal. Not to the organization, but to my masters," he said and even smiled. "And besides, if it's for a good purpose, I know the organization won't punish us if they find out."

We just looked at each other. It has a good purpose but I doubt if Head and the others will understand.

"Let's proceed."

Tumango lang sila sa sinabi ko. For the next minutes, we told Razed the plan and he had no objections about anything. He just agrees at everything and promises not to mess up.

"They are here."

We all looked at Ethan after he said that.

Stephen frowned. "Ha?"

"I called Shaina to check if the heiresses are here and she said she saw them entering the gate. Except from Kithania."

"Tsk. Nandito na naman iyong mga hambog," Stephen said. "Pero kung gano'n, iyong matakaw lang nilang kaibigan ang nasa bahay."
