Can I have another dance?

Chapter 11 : The Truth

Kasity :

Well, that was amazing. Eventually I won the race. Of course. We stopped outside his house. In fact, outside his "Suarez" mansion.

"Fucking arrogant" I said while smiling as I got out of my car.

"What did I tell you Mr. Kingstone?
Don't mess" I tell him while approaching him.

"God, do you always have to be so annoying?" He asks with a worried look on his face.

At that moment he came closer to me and took my hand...

"C'mon Ms. Opposite Lawyer, let's have a drink." He says and leads me through the garden towards his house.

I smiled and took a glance at him...

He opened the door and showed me the table.

"You can sit, make yourself comfortable. So, what do you drink?" He asks with his low raspy voice while heading for the kitchen.

I could see the sunset through his glass doors. The afternoon rays were reflecting on the glass making their way all over his house.

"Hmm. I drink whiskey" I responded quietly.

He came back with two glasses and a bottle.

"Are you a tough bad guy?" He asks while laughing.

"What?!" I answer looking shocked.

"Cause you drink whiskey, that's all" he says and continues laughing.

We talked a little... about many unimportant things... until I decided to ask him.

"So, if I'm allowed to ask...Why is Sebastian Perez after you?" I say looking at his eyes...

"Well as you already know he wants my businesses" he responds, not really interested in talking about this.

"Areson, I'm not talking about that. I mean, why is he really after you? I can clearly see that your businesses are not his most significant aim..." I ask him again, trying to find out what's really going on...

"You're smart Kasity, really" he answers becoming sad all of a sudden.

"So listen... Five years ago, his brother, Daniello Perez, killed my father during a fight... Of course me and the boys were furious so that's why one night, we visited his house, found him and killed him... We killed many other men of his too. Now, his brother Sebastian, is looking for revenge. Kasity, Sebastian doesn't give a fuck about the court and all those stupid things... These things just entertain him... He's looking for something else. He's looking to find me at the right time and manipulate me through threats... At least that's what I think now" he confesses, a disappointed look appearing on his face.

"So this is just a game?" I say frustrated...

"Let me help you..." I finally say, putting my hands on his shoulders...

At that moment I didn't care about the case anymore... I just wanted to help him. I know I'm stubborn, evil and selfish, but there was something in me constantly pushing me to help this man...

Areson :

I just told her everything I had to.
She said she wanted to help... I guess she's eventually not that evil...

"Kasity why would you risk your own life about this? How far can your ambition go?" I ask her smirking like a devil.

Then she came closer and touched my face with her hands and dragged me closer... our faces were just some inches apart...

"My ambition is going to go as far as nobody else's has ever gone." She says slowly and clearly, showing me her power in a quite convincing way.

"Alright, you requested this yourself" I answer as she moved back to where she was sitting.

"But in order to help me, first you've got to carry a gun" I announce as I go in my room and find a gun.

I give it to her slowly.

"Listen you probably don't know how to use it but I can help-" I start saying when I hear a loud bang and see a broken vase.

"Okay, now I'm sure you're insane" I nearly yell at her...

She pulled the trigger and shot the vase from many meters away...

"I've been taught such things about guns" she says and then smiles at me. The fake, ironic, devilish smile.

We finished our drinks and I led her to the door.  She hopped in her car and wave at me *princess style* while smiling...

'So she knows how to use guns?' I think...
