Hola Amigos!

I know I'm pretty late on my schedule but I'll make it up to you :)))))

Also this chapter is pretty intense with a hint towards death and delusional thoughts. So if any of such things trigger you, then please hop of this chapter. (It's an important chapter from the story building POV, but it's something that'll trigger few people. So you've been warned; Also I'll add hints about the main events that take place in this chapter later into the story if you're worried about missing out)(Ah it's not intense intense but mildly hints towards death)

Okay enough of rambling... rest of you, hop right into it.

Happy Reading! :))

xO!

Unknown POV

Nervously, I began tapping my finger tips onto the glass that happened to divide the booth I'm currently standing in. Unlocking my cell phone, I looked for some new text messages; when I found none, I gently kept the phone up on the podium, beside the police station telephone.

It had been ten minutes, since they had asked me to wait here until they fetch him. It took every ounce of self confidence in me, not to piss myself. No matter how many times I visit, I always feel like these white walls contract themselves, suffocating me. Even though the air conditioning kept this place cool, I was still sweating like I had come straight from a long run. Chills run down my spine when I hear the click of the door. Slowly, I turned my head towards it, where I could see him giving me his signature smirk... Ryan Alcon.

Ryan Alcon, that name is just enough for someone to have really bad nightmares. His warm smiles and attractive persona, often led people to mistake him for some regular charming man; but in reality, he was far from being just any regular man... at least that's what i have learnt. Though a part of me always warns me about my regular meet-ups and the growing closeness; but in reality, my craving to get revenge on her is making me do things, which I had never thought about.

From the corner of my eye, I could see the officer handcuffing him onto the podium and whispering something in his ear. Suddenly, the officer looks at me and says, "You have only ten minutes to talk", he said it in an authoritative tone and left the room.

I couldn't help but nod at no one in particular, when my attention was turned towards the man that sat in front of me. Though there was a glass wall that separated us, I couldn't help but stare at the view that that man had to offer. His dark brown eyes, that were hooded by his pretty long lashes, were currently focused on the hand-cuffs. I took my time in admiring his chiseled shaped face with a sleek jawline and his nearly straight nose, that was covered with light freckles; which were only visible if you were in close proximity to him. There was a light stubble that was appearing on his face, making him look quite mature.

I could see his full lips pressed in a thin line, when I suddenly realised what I was doing. With a little shake of head, I close my eyes to hide my embarrassment. I don't know why I tend to lose my control whenever he is near me. No matter how many times I try reminding myself that he is my late boyfriend's best friend, I fail the moment he stands in front of me. I know the fact that Ryan is not capable of doing anything normal in his life, let alone start a family; but when does our hearts listen to anything sane?

"I told you not to show me your face until you had some solid plan", he hissed at me, breaking my train of thoughts.

I let my eyes wander onto his face, in search of some slightest emotions but like always, I was greeted with disappointment. Sighing, "I have...", I said.

"Good", he said while leaning back on his chair until his handcuffs restricted him not to. He paused for a while, clearly in some deep thoughts, "What about her?", he asked me after a moment of silence.

I knew that he was about to bring her up at some point of our conversation, but I hadn't thought he'd bring her up this early. Something about her, makes me curl my hands into fists. "She seems happy now...", I started off.

"Well?", he arched one of his eyebrows at me.

"Well... maybe she's enjoying her date with her soon-to-be husband right now", I smirked. I knew I took it very low, but I don't know what gets into me whenever I hear her name pop up in any conversation. It's like she has people wrapped around her little finger and has not even a slightest idea about it.

"I TOLD YOU TO TAKE CARE OF HIM", he banged his fist on the table, making me finch.

The anger he held in his eyes was a result of burning rage. You know when you take something precious from someone, they lose it. They don't even tend to think about the consequences of their actions, but they are mainly focused on owning that thing again. The only way to torture Ryan was, if you take away his precious thing from him; or I'd rather say, someone precious to him... Lucrecia.

My feelings for Ryan were new, but Ryan and Lucrecia go way back. I don't know how a girl like her manages to fall for someone who sells girls for his living; but they seemed strong at first. You know that saying, which goes like, Truth does come out no matter what and luckily it did; but it destroyed everything around us in just a matter of seconds.

Words could never justify the feelings I had, the loneliness that crept in me when I was lying in the empty apartment that was soon supposed to turned into home; or the void that would never be fulfilled by anyone but him... the person who I lost in the process of this truth.

Not wanting to fall into the endless circles of thoughts, I look up at a fuming Ryan, "Ezra Ambrosia is not a joke", I said sweetly. Though it was true; Ezra was indeed no joke. No matter how hard my team tries to bring him down, he comes up more stronger than before as if nothing happened.

"I don't care...", he hissed at me again, "I want you to kill him".

"You know I don't like getting my hands dirty...", I scoffed at him, which only angered him more. A part of it which I said was true, I would do anything in my power to make someone suffer... but to actually kill someone? Nah not my forte. Besides, I like getting Ryan all riled up on the fact that his lady love is currently in the arms of someone who has held her at the tip of his gun point. What can I say... I like how I am able to shoot three targets with just one bullet.

"Luck is on your side, because if there wasn't this glass barrier between us, then I would've banged your head on this table until you died, for acting sassy in front of me", he said in all seriousness.

I couldn't help but raise my hands up in the air as a peace sign. "Thanks for the vivid description... now shall we get down to business? We only have 3 minutes left, until your jumbo chauffeur comes to fetch you".

"Tell me what you got".

"You have to be dead".

"WHAT?! Are you mad?"

"No I'm not, thanks for asking", I narrowed my eyes at him and then continued, "What I meant by that was... you have to act like you're dead.", I paused for a while, thinking about possible ways that I could actually explain this to him, "Okay so we know that you could hold your breath for like 3 minutes at the most..."

"So?", he cut me off.

"...so, you just have to pretend like you're having a pain in your chest, like a heart attack. And when they come in and check for your breath, you just have to hold it in, which will make them believe that you're dead; and they would take you to the hospital."

"What shitty episode did you watch, to come up with this crap?", he arched his eyebrows, while cutting me off again.

"At Least I got something", I replied sternly. "I know it's crap but this is what we got", I waited for him to say something sassy to shut me off; But when he didn't, I took that as a cue and continued, "You just have to come to the hospital... I have taken care of everything from there", I smirked.

"What exactly have you planned?"

"I was going to keep it as a surprise, but since we're on it... The moment you get admitted in the hospital, more like your supposed dead body that they'll run some post-mortem tests on..."

"What about it?"

"How does a dead body catching up in hospital fires sound like?", I grinned at him, "We'll replace your body with someone else's, when the doctor leaves and then... boom", I added. There was a very satisfied grin present on Ryan's face. I know he is still skeptical about me, but I'll prove him wrong.

Just when I completed my sentence, on the very next second, the officer came. "Okay, time's up", he said while already untying Ryan's handcuffs. At the same time, I quickly gathered my things and turned around to leave with a satisfied smile lingering on my face.

You have no idea what is waiting for you Lucrecia... just wait and watch.

I'll take away everything that you have, and shatter your world into pieces... just like how you did mine.

I'm coming to take my revenge.
