Devon Carter finished playing the video game and watching yet another new movie. He's so boooooored, it's not even funny.
This is exactly why he didn't take the fucking leave when it came, that's why he left it to become long overdue.
But after the last mission, the boss was determined to let their team have their rest for at least two months before they resume stronger and well-rested. At thirty-three, he works for a very private top-notch Extract and Rescue Organisation (EXO). He kicks asses and saves people for a living.
Yeah, definitely an adrenaline rush.
He snorted mentally. Yeah, fucking-right. The only way they're gonna return is crazy and half-insane.
One month has passed already, and Devon is counting for the remaining month. He's tired of the vacation.
He's visited all his four sisters and their husbands, and he's spent time with his mother who's staying with their eldest sister, Carmen, who's the only person older than him.
He'd gone on a tour in Jeju Island, and he'd visited clubhouse more than a whore on promo.
He got up again and went out to the barn. Since he has nothing to do, he can help the workers feed the livestock.
An hour later, his cellphone rang. He picked up the unknown number.
"Hello, baaaaaaibe." Came the sultry voice.
Devon shook his head. He really doesn't need this right now. "Anne."
"Yes, baby. Can I come over?"
"Nope. I'm outside town. I'll call you when I get back." He lied.
"Oh...." Her disappointment was apparent. "Okay. Call me."
"Sure." He hung up. Anne is only but one of the one-night stands he's had since he got back to Wyoming, Texas.
Only, Anne doesn't want to leave him alone. The woman doesn't understand the word 'I'm not interested.'
He sighed and went back to feeding the chickens.
Hell, he's very bored, dammit.

"I don't know what to do, Yenna," Raniella said to her friend, pausing her typing on the desktop in front of her.
In her office on the highest floor of the skyscraper, she sat behind her desk trying to get a job done since morning.
It has proven impossible because she can't forget the call from her mother last night.
Yenna sighed, shifting the files she has on her hands to rest on the other hand. "Maybe you should just go home alone and tell your mother that you and 'your man' broke up a few days ago, and that's why you ain't back home with him."
"And endure long hours of advice? The pity looks?" Raniella threw her perfectly manicured hands up in the air, "she'll start sending me books again on 'how to catch a big fish, you know my mother."
Yenna does know Mrs. Gomez very well. She's been friends with Raniella for the past three years....that's how long she's been her manager.
Yenna took a seat opposite her friend. "What are you going to do, Ella?"
Raniella sighed. "You just asked me a question I've been asking myself since last night, I don't know what to do."
Yenna's head was working, thinking alternatives. "And you can't just go to a club and snag a guy tonight right?"
"My family knows I've been dating this 'guy' for the past six months. Any man I snatch now from the club won't convince my parents at all. He'll practically be a stranger." Raniella got up from her chair restlessly and walked towards the window.
"Besides, you know I'm not really good at those; going to a club, snatching a guy." She finished.
"Hell yeah. You suck at one-night stands." Yenna agreed.
"That's because the last one stole my gold wristwatch and made away with my brand-new laptop."
"That's like what? One year ago?"
"Two." Raniella corrected her friend softly.
"Jesus. That's a long dry spell."
"Tell me about it. Anyway, I'm not interested in all those now, I have a business to keep running and I've got George at home to keep me from getting bored."
Yenna snorted. "Yeah, right. Why don't George escort you to see your parents since he's such a good company?"
Raniella gave her a mock glare. "Don't insult my dog, you wicked witch."
Yenna took a deep breath. "You're my friend, Ella, and I love you so much, but I have to agree with your mother a little bit. You're too uptight, and you don't even know how to live a life."
Her back stiffened. "I love my life the way it is, Yenna."
Yenna knows the familiar defensive pose and raised her hand in surrender. "Alright, alright. No need going all soldier on me, I get it, best friend."
Raniella relaxed and faced the window again, overlooking the building.
Yenna stared at her friend. Blond hair packed tightly in a bum on top of her hair, well-ironed blue business suit, and black stilettoes. There's no hair out of place. No dirt on the table. Everywhere is well arranged. No disorganization.
That's exactly her best friend, Ella.
Ella is a typical example of a no-nonsense, prim and proper lady. At twenty-eight, she's a beauty to behold, rich and successful.
But, her friend is too serious about life. After what happened with Garrett, it became worse.
Yenna wishes for that to change. She wished for there to be a way for her friend to loosen up a bit, let go of some things and try to enjoy life a bit.
"Oh, Yenna. What the hell am I going to do?" Raniella groaned again.
An idea was starting to form in Yenna's mind.
A very crazy idea.
They don't know I'm a girl. They all look at me and see a boy. A prince. Their kind purchase humans like me for their lustful desires. And, when they stormed into our kingdom to buy my sister, I intervened to protect her. I made them take me too. The plan was to escape with my sister whenever we found a chance. How was I to know our prison would be the most fortified place in their kingdom? I was supposed to be on the sidelines. The one they had no real use for. The one they never meant to buy.

She came in through the window like an angel of the night, so incredibly beautiful––her eyes bright with pure hatred, and her dagger pointing straight at him. Kracus asked, "Who are you? Who sent you!?" Ever so calmly, she responded, "I'm the last face you'll ever see. Tonight, I'll take your life in the most graphic way you could ever imagine." Then, she threw the dagger straight at him. ****************************** Tessera Rinderson is popularly known as 'The Torturer' in the underworld, due to her unmatched skill in inflicting unimaginable pain and torture to her quarries.

She harbors an intense hatred towards him to the extent that her entire existence revolves around the day she can finally bring an end to his life. And that day finally came.

"You promised me your virginity and your body. I was foolish to pass on the first, but like a debt collector, I am here to take the latter which belongs to me. Your body is mine, Rosianna." A loved one who became a stranger and a heart filled with secrets... "Oh, Rosy," Santos whispered, his voice sending shivers down her heated body. "Do you remember?" "What?" she asked, even though she feared that she already knew what he was asking. He leaned closer to her ear. "That night six years ago? Right here, in this house, in this room...you begged me to take your body" Her eyes closed at the pain of the memory. "Let me go, Santos. I don't want you anymore." she lied. Pressing his body against hers, his hand slid underneath the towel and caressed her there. She leaned into him and moaned throatily. He nibbled at her ear, and whispered, "That's not what your body is saying, darling."

His voice was a replica of the male. Deep, dark, and dangerous. "What...?" She squeaked, terrified. He was standing so close to her... "Lùst. Desire." He spat the words like they tasted bad, his eyes cold, his face inscrutable. "The scent of your wetness is driving me insane. I can practically taste your hunger for my cóck." Then, he shocked them both—hell, even the poor equipment in her bathroom. With a savage growl, his head lowered completely and his mouth crashed down to hers. . . ********************* There are rumors... Whispers around in secret. Murmurs in pitch darkness.

LEILANI. I'm an orphan who was picked up by the roadside and left on the gate of a convent when I was a baby. I was raised by Reverend sisters and I spent all twenty three years of my life in the convent. I went to school there and did everything in the big convent, I've never been on my own until six months ago.

In a small quiet town, everything is great. The people are good. All was going really well.....until the day he showed up. The scariest man I've ever seen. And the way he looks at me? It's a look I don't understand but it never fails to send shivers down my spine. Who is he? What does he want from me? ZERO HE IS DARKNESS.... I am the bad guy of this story. Every story has a villain, and I am that villain. You can call me, Number Zero. Or Zero, for short. Frankly, I don't care. I am a born killer and I'm called The Killer Machine in the dark world, the part of the world do-gooders don't see. Think of every name you would call a professional killer, and give me that name, because you wouldn't be wrong. I would like to tell you that I try to do good, to do the right thing but that would be a lie. I don't see any need why I have to lie here. I am a very bad man, don't go searching for good because it's not there. I have so much darkness in me that if you stay in my mind for a long time, you go dark too. Don't mistake this for a confession because it is not. I'm not seeking for forgiveness and if you give it, I won't accept it. I'm not seeking for redemption here. My sins are my own. The first day I saw her, I just knew something. My new fascination. My first fascination in all my thirty three years of life. I must have her. I must make her mine.
