SWEET IN DARKNESS; Lovely and Mysterious

An old man in his fifties placed a picture of a beautiful woman in front of Lukas, the assassin who never failed to perform his actions.

"I want you to kill this woman." Travis was Alice's enemy in the business world, he had his eyes on her life, but he always failed, and the hatred was growing.

"Young enough. How much will it cost me to kill her?" Luke stared at the photo of the beautiful woman he was going to take his life for.

"You will get 1 million dollars. If you succeed in eliminating her," Travis offered an unbelievable price to please her.

"What does she do? "Lukas had never asked much about the person he was going to kill, but he was suddenly curious.

"Alice is the one. She will occupy the highest office, and she will compete with me, and she is also a billionaire." The old man said it haughtily.

"Well, I'll kill her for you," Lukas said without thinking, making the old man smile and shake Travis's hand.

After Travis left, Lukas was still staring at the photo of the woman on the table. Lukas's hand smoked tobacco slowly. "Welcome, my sexy lady."

***

The glass of wine on the nightstand next to the woman's bed was still enjoying the smoke billowing from her sexy lips. She knew that death could stalk her at any time.

Alice Gabriella is a French-born woman who has a very perfect physique. With a body sculpted like a Greek goddess, making men willing to get naked at her feet.

She has a high position in the political world, even at the relatively young age of 26. She has a company under her auspices. If it wasn't for her parents' accident, she wouldn't have sacrificed her young life to be happy.

Alice threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray on the balcony. She walked to the nightstand and gulped down the remaining wine in the glass, the clock was already 10 p.m. Her body was tired, but she didn't want to just rest, Alice wanted someone who could warm the bed tonight.

Alice carried a small bag that contained her wallet and the gun she always carried and kept on her thigh. Alice drove to a place that could satisfy her lust—none other than her regular club.

The place was slightly dimly lit, and loud music was sounding very loud in Alice's ears. She passed through the entrance easily without having to go through the check, they let her in because she knew the owner.

Alice took a seat at the elongated bar and wandered around, seeing many prostitutes and couples kissing like there was no tomorrow. Even Alice was disgusted, seeing them almost half stripped by men who were, in her opinion, Daniel, a bartender, approaching Alice for the first time.

"Hello, Miss. Sexy. What drink would you like on this sunny day?"

"Damn you, Daniel! I don't want a drink tonight. Just looking for some fun." Alice swore at Daniel, who had known her for a long time.

"Here, men are all assholes, Alice, no one of your level can get your body," Daniel replied, chuckling at Alice's words, which he found strange. Because usually Alice immediately calls her subordinates without bothering to come looking. A man approached Alice again, he sat right next to her.

"Beautiful. What are you doing here?" the young man asked Alice, as did his hand, which wanted to try to caress Alice's face. But Alice's hand quickly caught and twisted it.

''You're already fucking drunk! You'd better go home, your mother will find you and pat your ass gently," quipped Alice, who laughed loudly. For a moment, the man was silent and seemed to be holding back his anger. His hand once again tried to abuse Alice, he touched her body once again. It failed! A man came over and punched the bastard right in the jaw. Alice was just watching the ridiculous action in front of her eyes.

Luke Henderson was a hitman who had come on purpose because he had information on Alice's whereabouts. His gaze searched for women he recognized through photos among the many women. Finally, Lukas found a woman who caught his attention and was dressed sexily. Alice deserved to be called a Greek goddess. Lukas praised Alice's beauty when he saw her in person.

The woman was wearing a bright red dress with spaghetti straps that hung beautifully on her shoulders. She was very beautiful, naturally, without too much polish on her face, until Lukas saw a man approaching the woman. He thought the man was Alice's lover, but what he caught was that the woman was uncomfortable with the presence of a man who looked strange in Lukas' eyes. Lukas tried to restrain his body from moving rashly, but what he found was that the bastard wanted to harass Alice.

"Fuck!" Lukas immediately pulled the man's hand away and hit him right in the jaw. Until fresh blood flowed from between his lips, the man drooped helplessly until the club guards took him out. Lukas was surprised when someone grabbed his wrist. Alice pulled Lukas towards a room upstairs.

"Is it this easy to kill you?" Lukas' mind smiled.

Lukas was still silent; not a single word came out of his lips other than admiring the beauty of the goddess in front of him. He immediately thought that it would be a great loss if he killed Alice tonight. What if he played first?

"Sit down." Alice ordered Lukas to sit on the bed in the room.

Alice called someone, and all Lukas knew was that she was asking in French, which Lukas didn't understand.

Alice sat next to Lukas and held Lukas' bruised hand.

The door was knocked on, and Alice opened it and took out a basin and a rectangular box containing p3k.

"You fool." Alice put ice in the cloth and applied it to the bruise on Lukas' hand.

"Why are you calling me stupid?" Lukas couldn't understand Alice's cold face.

"Because you were willing to hit that bastard." Alice gave Lukas some medicine before wrapping Lukas' hand.

Alice kept the P3K box on the nightstand. She took two glasses filled with champagne and gave one to Lukas.

"What's your name?" Lukas pretended to ask Alice when he knew.

"Alice." Alice extended her hand, still in a standing position, and was immediately greeted by Lukas.

"Lukas."

Lukas' hand did not let go of Alice's, but Alice did not feel uncomfortable as her body was pulled and fell into Lukas' lap. She liked her new toy. Lukas was not bad enough.

She tried to neutralize her heartbeat. As her eyes looked into Lukas' bright blue eyes with a brownish-black mane, Alice instantly felt nervous and didn't recognize herself.

Lukas brought his face closer to kiss Alice's lips quickly, which had been disturbing his mind. He didn't care what would happen if he was too late to kill Alice.

Suddenly, Alice was surprised when Lukas released his kiss. But what she got was even more surprising: Alice pulled him by the scruff of the neck to repeat the initial short kiss. Alice kisses Lukas with a passion that expands to the point where Lukas realizes not to go further than this. Since Lukas' intention was not to toy with Alice further, Lukas suddenly got up and broke away from Alice.

"You know if we continue what bad things will happen. I can't promise I can hold it, Alice." Lukas looked into Alice's eyes with a dim look. Alice smiled and put her hand in between Lukas' hair.

"I know," Alice said with a cold face.

"I don't want our first meeting to end unpleasantly," Lukas replied, repeating his words. Alice gave Lukas a quick peck on the lips again.

"What are you saying? The first meeting with you was quite pleasant," Alice added with a smirk.

Alice moved her face away. Glancing at the clock on her wrist, she realized it was already one o'clock in the morning. She had to go home because Alice still had a meeting at the company and a leadership meeting tomorrow.

"I have to go home now," said Alice, saying the wrong farewell to Lukas.

Lukas seemed unwilling to let go of Alice, he still held her wrist. For a few minutes, they stared at each other. Who knows who was swept away by the feelings this time?

"Lukas__."

Alice approached Lukas and hugged him, she had never been this gentle, even with the man she slept with. But only Lukas managed to make Alice do it, Alice just walked away without looking back at Lukas.

"I can't wait for the next meeting." Lukas was smiling as he saw Alice carelessly leave her purse behind.
