THIRD PERSON'S POV

Evan had thought his coffee was poisoned until Scarlet made the move of sipping from his cup. Now he knew he wasn't poisoned but definitely sick.

After Scarlet brought back the jug of water and a glass cup,he poured himself and drank nastily,at least he needed to keep himself till he got to his special clinic.

He left the diner saying or doing nothing else,he had to be at the clinic as fast as possible.

When he got there,he discovered that there was blood splashed almost everywhere,almost immediately did he receive a call from Boju informing him that there has been riots and severe attacks from another mafia squad who had just arrived to town, saying they wanted to be the number one and only squad in town, even if that meant cleaning out the whole city and everything that had to do with Evan's domination.

He walked into the clinic prepared for anything,as he got into the reception he could quickly guess that there had been no one spared.

He ran into the private office where his favorite lady laid covered in her own blood. His personal and private doctor had been the only lady closer to him,they shared something more than a physical business relationship,they shared emotions,his darkest delusions and secrets. This got him too furious that he forgot for that moment that he had thoughts of death.

........

He had just returned from the mortuary where he handed her body over for proper cleaning and burial,he sat at his desk.. elbow on the knee and hands on his chin.

He had made the highest loss in his life time... though he couldn't cry or mourn those that he had lost,he felt every bit of agony a grieving man would.

Meanwhile scarlet was back home,a little bit worried as to why the mafia king had reacted the way he did,not like she cared for him...she was just a little bit anxious due to the fact that he had accused her of poisoning him, which she certainly did not...but if he happened to die, people were going to come for her neck.

She wasn't ready to die yet,not now!she hadn't even lost her virginity. Holy she came,holy she doubted she would return.

Later on through the night,she got a call from Stella informing her that she was going to arrive the following day...she couldn't wait to welcome her friend.

She had to go to bed early so as to wake up the next day to resume her miserable job she wished she never had.

THE NEXT DAY

Evan barely had any sleep,but what was more concerning was the fact that regardless of all the troubles he had around him, he had happen to think about his little monster during the night.

.......

It was another day of receiving bad news and sending his favorite people to their grave for eternal rest. It was the hardest thing he has had to do for a while.

Boju was on the other end of the phone again, informing him of how his antagonist had once again managed to clear out his people,this time focusing on his men in the bureau and police department.. despite all the stunt they had pulled the previous night to keep their securities tighter.

Evan was devastated, hadn't he buried more than enough person's already?

He knew that what his antagonist wanted was a fight,and he was now ready to give it his all. He already had enough of his own cowardice...the Evan he always knew was the monster and king!no one else was going to take that away from him.

He asked Boju to get his tropes ready for war,if it was a fight the Michelson wanted,a fight they would get.

Back at the diner, Scarlet had resumed her duties of cleaning and setting everything up, eagerly waiting to close for the day in the next 12 hrs. Woaw that was a long hours of waiting.

"Wouldn't today just go by faster?"

"It sucks already"

It's been only an hour she got to the diner and she couldn't wait to leave already.

"Good morning"she had greeted Mr Suski.

Honestly it hadn't been accompanied with the smiles lately. It was true that Mr Suski had understood that she wanted nothing else to do with the diner asides work.

Mr Suski greeted her back and headed out of the diner only to rush in few hours later carrying a heavy bag behind him,she had been too busy attending to the customers to ask him where he was coming from in a haste.

The day was coming to a close slowly as the sun was beginning to set and the customers at the diner were beginning to reduce.

At last it was time to pack up and leave,she tidied and took all the garbages to the back trash truck,as she was returning back into the kitchen she saw familiar faces sitted in the diner.

"Oh hell!why...why...why ..?"

She had prayed to never see them again,most especially him.

Just then the door to the diner opened,it was her long awaited friend standing by the doorway with a huge smile plastered on her bright face.

That smile quickly faded immediately her attention was drawn to the hefty men who sat all around the diner,she could also sight some weapons that included big knives and machete.

She guessed that the guns were out of sight but definitely present there. Stella could already guess who they were, she scanned around for her dear friend who was had been in danger as she felt more concerned now that she saw the monster and his demons herself.

It wasn't hard to spot the devil himself,aside from the fact the Scarlet had briefly described him, she had also searched him up on the internet.

He was a very handsome man with blue eyes and the perfect chin and jawline,his biceps could even be seen through his white shirt that had it's hands rolled up to elbow length.

Scarlet saw that her friend was tensed immediately she stepped in and had seen the unwanted and uninvited guests that were seated at the diner,she quickly ran in to save her friend from perhaps death.

But then..

Before she could get hold of her,there was gunshots and glass shattering around. She went down on her knees with her hands over her ears,but few inches from where she was she could see her friend struggling with a body that had fallen on her.

Seems like the mafia and his men had already gotten into action cause they were also firing at whoever it was that had started the whole massacre.

She had to save her friend,they had to get out of there somehow,looking up over the counter she saw Mr Suski with a long gun fixed on the table and bullet cases falling above her head,what that what a sniper rifle looked like?

Yeah! She was taken by surprise,Mr Suski was also a killer,she literally worked for a killer who also worked for and with a more deadly killer.

How great was that?...well it wasn't the time to assess things,she and stella had to get their asses out of there as soon as possible, before she became dead meat.

Just before she was able to reach out to Stella who had happened to get the huge body off herself, she was grabbed by someone way powerful than she imagined and was moved out Headed towards the diner back door.

Who the hell had plans of kidnapping her?...even then during a bloody gun fight.
