Betrayed (ON HOLD FOR NOW)

CHAPTER 21

                    Unknown POV

"You didn't kill her. What if she finds out about us?" she stared at me with anger.

This woman is making me angrier. I shouldn't have asked her for help. If it weren't for her assistance, I would have killed her a long time ago.

"Shut up! Don't tell me what to do, bitch. We're both in the same boat," I hissed at her while cleaning the bruises that bastard left on me. Julian ruined my plan today. I won't let him go unpunished. I'll make sure his death becomes part of my plan.

"What the heck are you saying? She saw your face, right? She'll be shocked to see you. Everything will be destroyed. You really are a psycho," she glared at me with anger.

I put the medical tools down and walked towards her. She started to move backwards, clearly afraid. I smirked, knowing that she feared me because I am not a normal person. I have killed many people, and it would not be difficult for me to kill her. Killing brings me pleasure. The act of cutting body parts and placing them on a table, delighting in the sight, is fun to me.

Gripping her throat, I slammed her against the wall and spat the words at her, "Be careful who you're talking to. If I can kill people with pleasure, don't think I can't do the same to you."

She stared at me with fear and stuttered, "B...but she saw your face. What if-"

I interrupted her, laughing evilly, "She didn't see my face, and she won't find out anything. If anything, she'll only know death."

Releasing her throat and moving towards the couch, I could see her sigh with relief. I added, "I'm not as stupid as you. Wherever I go, I plan meticulously."

I took the box from the table, lit up a cigarette, and looked towards her. "And about this. It's even more fun that our previous plan failed. What if this time something more dangerous awaits her than a simple killing plan? No one is going to save her."

"What are you going to do?" Lucy stared at me.

"Let me tell you what we are going to do. Now that you are Julian's soon-to-be fiancée, you have the best opportunity to keep Julian away from Madeline," I said to her as I exhaled the smoke from my mouth.

"But Julian doesn't go to her. I just messaged him, and he said he was busy with some work. Why would he go to that bitch when he thinks she left him?" she stated with a smirk. How foolish she is. She really underestimates Julian. I chuckled at her.

"You're such a fool. Did you actually believe him? Didn't he love you enough to lie to you, Lucy?" I mocked her.

"What do you mean?" she glared at me.

I laughed and smirked at her. "Because he's the one who saved her. That bastard helped her. He still loves her. Did you forget that he can't love you because he only wants that bitch?"

She stared at me in shock. She must think I don't know Julian well enough. I know him well enough to kill him. I wanted him dead, but killing his bitch will be even more satisfying. Plus, we have a deal — I have to let Julian live. Killing his bitch was killing him slowly, but now that she's back, he's alive again.

"I will kill that bitch with poison," she stared at me with anger and added, "What is your plan? This time we must not fail."

I chuckled. "My plan is most pleasurable this time. We will once again separate them, but this time she'll be alive, and Julian will have to hate her. After that, killing her will be easy."

I advised her, "Don't let Julian know the truth, and don't let him find out about their dead child. Make him stay away from Madeline, or else everything will come out."

I want Julian to experience pain, and she wants Madeline to suffer. She doesn't want Julian to be dead; she wants him alive so that she can have him. However, after killing Madeline, Julian will slowly die as he loses the love of his life. He will be tortured. He will end up killing himself this time. I smirked internally because, after all, I want Julian Russo dead.

She smirked at me, unaware of what is running through my head. "So, what's the plan?" she asked.

I smirked back at her and explained my plan. After all, we are the CULPRITS who destroyed everything they had.
