{ QUENCHING HIS THIRST }
As soon as Larisa fell into Lucifer’s arms,he moved back and Larisa almost landed on the ground but Orpheus was fast enough to catch her. Lucifer walked away without taking another glance at them.
Orpheus adjusted Larisa in his arms and stared at her innocent face,he started walking away with her. He met Bathsheba on his way
“What happened to her this time?” Bathsheba asked
“Passed out…I guess she was scared” Orpheus replied
“Follow me” Bathsheba said,leading the way
“I thought she stays in your room” Orpheus uttered behind her
“Not anymore” Bathsheba replied and there was silence
Soon,they got to the room and entered
“Is this going to be her room? The boss ordered this?” Orpheus asked curiously
“Why do you sound so curious?” Bathsheba asked
“I just want to know” Orpheus responded and placed Larisa gently on the bed,he glanced at her one last time before going out of the room.
“Some feelings are dangerous” Bathsheba muttered and then walked over to the bed.
Larisa opened her eyes and looked around
“Where’s this?” She asked
“Your new room” Bathsheba replied
Larisa groaned tiredly and sat up,she checked out the room more properly
“Only me?” She faced Bathsheba and she nodded
Larisa smiled
“Thank you ma’am” She said and Bathsheba looked at her
“Ma’am? Why? Do I look old? I look like I’m barely in my thirties” Bathsheba said
“But you look old to me” Larisa said and Bathsheba raised her brows
“You mean I’m ugly?” She asked
“No,I don’t know. You look really young and beautiful,but somehow I think you’re really older than you look like” Larisa explained and there was silence.
“I’m sorry if I made you mad” Larisa muttered
“You don’t have to be so scared Renata” Bathsheba proceeded
“The snake girl……is scary” Larisa muttered softly
“You think running away from your fears is the best way to solve them?” Bathsheba asked
“I just…..don’t want to get hurt anymore. Everything is scary to me these days” Larisa sniffs and wiped her tears
“Tears are for weak people…..”
“I’m weak,if I wasn’t weak…..I wouldn’t be here. I’m a bad luck also,everyone h@ťěs me.” Larisa said and Bathsheba sighed
“So naive” She scoffed and walked out of the room.
Larisa fell back on the bed and sighed out,she touched her chest and her heartbeat was normal. Obviously they came because of Lucifer
She decided to take a short nap before the evening works starts again,
“Can’t believe I got a room for myself alone” She smiled,rolling on the bed before she finally closed her eyes.

<6PM≈ROOM 392>
All the gang members are all present,this room is just like a meeting room where they meet to discuss about their missions and other things. Another part of the room is where they keep different weapons while going on a mission
There was total silence as they all listened to Lucifer giving them the right information.
“We’ve got a peddling to do tonight aside this” He concluded
“So we need two teams right boss?” Orpheus asked
Lucifer said nothing but they all know his silence meant something
“Orpheus?” He called
“Yes boss?” Orpheus immediately answered
“You lead five gangs to the penthouse. Renata..other five for peddling” Lucifer said
“But,I want to go to the penthouse….”
“Renata” Lucifer called and she kept quiet
“Sorry” She muttered
“Is that clear?” Lucifer asked finally
“Yes boss!” They all chorused and he walked out at once
“This is f-__-king annoying” Renata rolled her eyes
Orpheus choose the five going with him..BB,Desdemona,Rocco,Jericho,Pistol and Rocky
While Renata will be going with,Wednesday,Storm,Scarlett,Cash,Ethan and Hunter.
“Let’s leave at once,it’s getting late” Orpheus said to the crew and they all left the room,each picking their guns
“Are we not allowed to use our powers?” Pistol asked as they walked out
“No” Orpheus replied
“d@mn it” Rocky spat and others also groaned.

Larisa was watching from her room through the window as the gang members all entered the car.
‘Where are they going?’ She thought
She suddenly heard her door closed and she turned back
Bathsheba came in
“You’re awake” she said and Larisa nodded
Bathsheba looked out and saw what Larisa was looking at
“Ever heard about Mafias?” She asked Larisa
“Yes,aren’t they bad people?” Larisa asked
“I guess,Mafias are filled up with bad girls and bad boys” Bathsheba replied and Larisa still wondered what brought the conversation
“This is a mafia mob” Bathsheba finally said and Larisa’s eyes widened
“Really? Does that mean…Master is a mafia boss?” She asked and Bathsheba nodded
“I just think I should tell you coz you don’t seem to know anything going on in this empire” Bathsheba said and Larisa nodded
“Thank you for telling me,now I understand” She smiled
“You are smiling? I was expecting you to be shaking” Bathsheba teased
“No,I think not all mafias are bad” Larisa chuckled cutely

“This place is so quiet,are you sure our preys are even inside?” Pistol asked,standing in akimbo
“Then,let’s do this” BB smirked beside Rocco
“We need two of you to stay outside” Orpheus suddenly turned and there was silence,nobody talked
“BB and Mona” He mentioned names
“What?!” BB and Desdemona exclaimed at once
“How do you expect me to stay outside here uselessly while you all are inside working,I can’t do that Orpheus” BB immediately said
“Watch while we are inside” Orpheus said,Ignoring BB’s complaints
“Happy watch” Pistol smirked at BB
“f-__-k off” BB snapped and Pistol laughed
They all went into the penthouse,leaving BB and Desdemona.
They walked into the penthouse silently
“Wow,it’s more busy than it looks” Pistol said as they watched the busy people moving up and down the penthouse
“Where’s the saferoom?” Rocco asked and Jericho showed them the map
“I will go first” He spoke up
“I’m coming with you” Pistol said
“Be careful” Orpheus said immediately
“Don’t worry,my bullets never misses targets” Pistol smirked and followed Jericho out of their hiding place.
Almost immediately,two guys sighted Rocco and Orpheus
They immediately brought out their guns but even before they could think of pulling the trigger,Rocco ki||ed them,$h00ting them in the heads
“Cool” Orpheus said and they both left the place,also finding their way to the saferoom.
