Game on [Hit the floor] {The wake up call: Book 3}

Well played, indeed

Jelena:
I have never been so humiliated or angry on my entire life! The plan was to use Jackson to distract Lionel and whispered in Amid's ears, causing distrust between the two pawns. So, we could come along and buy the arena. But we waited all night long and he never came! I did my homework, he always comes to his club on Tuesdays. I  don't know what the heck was going, but I didn't like it. I'm always in control of everything, if things don't go my way I get very angry. Not to mention that now I have this bitch on my back, claiming that she is pregnant with Terrence's child.
As if! I scoffed in my head, in disbelief. Terrence would never be so stupid to not use a condom while having a one night stand with a waitress.

"Damn it!" I heard Terrence curse under his breath, as we were entering the arena.

"What's wrong?" I demanded to know. After all, he was talking to Amid's secretary trying to get a meeting to buy The Devils' Arena from him.

"They said it's impossible to get a meeting, because he already sold the arena!" Terrence told me, as angry as I was with the news "Who the hell bought the place?! Did someone find out about our plan?"

"Yes, we did" someone answered him, from behind us.

You'll know my surprise when we saw Jude Kinakade, after we turned around. He had Zero by his side, Kyle standing close by and the other power couple of The Devils, nearby. Derek had his arms around Ahsha's shoulder, while he was standing near Zero. That friendship was unexpected and annoying, also it hurt Terrence how easy he was replaced.

"What do you mean?" I asked him, feign innocence.

"Cut the crap, Jelena" Ahsha told me, making me boil in rage. I wanted to break my cool facade and scratch that bitch's eyes out with my nails.

"We know about you causing havoc with Amid and trying to buy the arena from him for at least a couple of weeks now" Jude interfered, before this would end up in a cat fight "Unluckily, for you, thank to you I now own the arena" I was shocked, I never expected Jude to be such a good player on this game... then again, he is Oscar Kinakade's son "By the way, I also now own most of The Devils' shares and am directing the team"

"What?" Terrence exclaimed.

"What about Lionel? It seems like family isn't so important to you, Jude. Well, played. You made us underestimate you with your kindness and 'good heart', to then stab us on the back. Watch out Zero, it seems like daddy dearest taught him a few things. The next thing you know, you might end up like Olivia. What is tha saying? Like father, like son" I commented, trying to cause 'havoc' as Jude put it. Planting some seeds of doubt and distrust, like only I know how to do.

"That's it, I'm gonna kill you!" Zero growled, angrily. I was shocked when he almost jumped on me, I could see the rage and murderous intent on his eyes. It took Jude and Derek holding him off and Terrence stepping in front of me "Let me go, she can't get away with saying those things of Jude! He is ten times the human you'll never be, bitch! He is kind, good and generous. He cares about people. You are a selfish bitch, blood sucking cheerleader. Who is nothing but evil. Between Jude and you, the most similar to Oscar is you! And who knows, maybe you killed someone as well"

I didn't show it, but Zero's words hurt... a lot. My worst nightmare was to be alone, and the things he had just listed were why I was sure people would end up leaving me. That's why I always leave first... before they can do it to me. But I was a professional, I just put a cold mask of indiference and didn't say a thing.

"Stop, Zero!" Jude barked, authoritatively. It surprised us all, he never sounded like that. So... in charge "She is a bitch, yes. We all know that, it's not flash news. However, when I think of you bonding with my family I never imagined it as you being the cellmate of my dad! So, calm down and don't let her get to you" that seemed to calm Zero down, he stopped struggling and stayed put when Derek let him go.

"To answer your question, Jelena, Lionel was the one who gave me her part of the shares and she now occupying my previous position on the team. However, before she stepped down she gave a couple of last orders. The first one was naming Zero, thanks to Derek's input, as vice captain of The Devils. I'mm sorry to say this, Terrence, but even when you get off the bench you won't be getting back to your old position" I heard my fiancé gasp in shock, never expecting that to happen... or that Derek had something to do with it "The other one, was to promote Ahsha as the new captain of The Devil Girls. I hope, you don't mind that much" he smiled smugly at me, a look he must have picked up from spending too much time with Zero.

"She can't do that!" Now, I did break my cold facade.

This is the worst thing Lionel could have done to me! I screamed in my head.

"She can, and she did" Jude replied "By the way, she asked me to tell you something" he got closer to me, leaning down to whisper in my ear "Payback is a bitch, bitch" with that said, he straightened up and walked away. The rest following him, and leaving us in the dust.

Well played, Jude. Well played, indeed. But this isn't over, I still have a trick under my sleeve and will play it. I thought, staring at his retreating back angrily.
