"I want you to know that Isabelle doesn't go to triplicate just randomly, she's always in black...and trust me when I say this,that woman isn't Isabelle Augustyn so you've to protect her, AM I CLEAR OFFICER DRIPPS?"
" YES SIR"
Aukey disconnect the call and dial another number,it rang continuously for minutes before it was picked.
"Edwine?"
"Yeah it's me... Jamie"

"Well hello,if it isn't my brother then who would it be huh?" Isabelle scream as the car accelerated, she's now changed in the same way Xander had described Greta and she looked hot and sexy as hell.
"I should be yelling"
"Really brother?" Isabelle sneer. "Well if you'd a leash on your dogs then I wouldn't be locked up"
" Why being so bitter?Pissed off because someone else is gonna eat your meat?, Let's be specific here we need this"
"Now I'm starting to thing Bron is right"
"Don't bring that bastard up"
"No, he is right,You care so little about me, I'm just one of your dogs...one who has to sacrifice her life just for your honour...right?But you know what's hurting? it's that you sent the woman you claimed to love to a serial killer...A man who kills as an hobby to spite me,you think this is the end of the world right?..."
"....but brother,Jesus isn't descending on earth to pick his disciples, it's death,karma happens quicker and faster,Greta will forever hate you for what you did today because you know it's going to be the interventions of your dead ancestors to bring her out of there alive"
"Isabelle, Miracles happen and I believe in Miracles"Isabelle grin.
"That Miracle didn't save your father Bodgan"
"You're crossing the line"Bodgan yell.
"I don't think so because we're nothing but strangers now."
" What do you...Isa... Isabelle" Isabelle disconnect the call and rub her temples in slow motion.

Greta smile wrly as Boyce offer her a seat,there were a lot of gangster's than she'd expected and the inside was more than a normal casino,there were gamblings going on,Cash thrown at each other,drugs taken and shockingly there are officers in so any killings that took place within the casino is considered normal,self defense with no justice.
"I've been dying to meet you Isa, remember the last time we met?"Greta force a cheeky smile and glance around. "He won't be here until midnight"
"How do you know I've got a business with him not you?"Boyce smile widen. "Do you think I still think about that night?"
---
" What? You've met Boyce?"
"Yeah, I was locked up and needed someone to use to escape" Isabelle cover Greta mouth with her palm. "I got here because I met him"
"Did you sleep with him?" Isabelle scoff. "You did? Isabelle"
"Of course, I'd to seduce him and give him what I want,he thought we did so I've the upper hand here"
" Why are you telling me this?"
" Because I want you to trust me once I'm in there,Boyce is a good man"
" What the hell?"Greta exclaim.
"Any man who can be used by a woman is a good man,I can get anything I want out of that guy with just my boobs"Greta roll her eyes. " But there's a cliche there"
" What is it?"
"Don't you find anything strange about the date I picked?"Greta shook her head. " My deal ends that day"
"Wait... Isabelle you mean that's the day,the day the deal ends...the day you're supposed to be killed"Isabelle nodded. " Are you insane?"
"No, because it's significant to triplicate he'll get Boyce out of prison,Boyce is a bastard,he doesn't kill like any criminals out there, he kills with his finger...dips it right here"Isabelle point at her collarbone. "Boyce knows about my deal with Trip but the guy doesn't care because he can't kill me according to the rules, Triplicate has to do that"
"Okay,so what's your plan?"
"I don't have one, I'd just go with the flow, he's going to want to have sex with me,that I am sure, he's gonna believe that's my last day on earth,so he's gonna do everything possible to get me in his bed and that's when my plan comes in, Triplicate has three weaknesses"
" You and who else?"
"Chief,And Boyce,So I'll have to kill Boyce"
---
Greta exhale heavily. "So what do you intend we do till midnight?"
" Keep each other company,I don't think you like this place"Greta smile genuinely this time.
"Of course,I do,why else did I survive from your son? isn't that what you call him?"
Boyce wet his lips grinning. " Is this a game?"
"Your type of game" Greta watch as Boyce pour her a glass of wine in amusement and flinch when she heard a sound from her earphone,her happiness knew no bound because initially the place is heavily bugged with wires and jammers,it was impossible to get any call through but the sound gave her a minute of peace.
"Greta can you hear me? it's Maja, I'm not with the group right now, I'd to do something to contact you, it's too risky in there,I contacted the chief and he got me in touch with Jamie and Micah"
" Hmmm"Greta hum and took a sip of the wine. " How's this possible?" She face Boyce. "The wine is great"
"Jamie is an hacker and the best at that, we both know that and Micah has the world best softwares,it wasn't easy but we got through at the end, listen there's an error and I think triplicate might figure it out faster than we all thought"
"Do you mind if I take you out sometime soon?"Boyce said startling Greta.
" What?"She pretend to ask,He smiled.
"Isabelle wears black to any meeting with triplicate,Yeah Bodgan ought to have known that but that's not the problem,the problem is how to get out of there, Isabelle is heading over there".
" What?"She scream,Boyce frown and she got the same look from others at the room. "It just got registered in my brain that I'm being asked out by a legend"Greta said.
" Legend?"Boyce sip his wine. "Woah,I could scream"
"She's heading over there with the CD,so your new assignment is to get laid,get in bed with Boyce and kill him"
"I can't believe this"Greta clench her fist still facing Boyce. " Why do I've to be the one?"
" Because you're beautiful"
"Because you've killed before" Maja utter.
" Because there's this strange unforgettable thing about you"
" Because we've got no time, because you've to,Many were killed by those people...this is the first time we've gotten this close"
" Because I like you"
"Triplicate is heading over there, he's gonna noticed there's something breaching the security so I've got to go, you've seconds,just seconds to get yourself into Boyce room"Maja mumble, Greta close her eyes to prepare.
"Do you really like me?" She open her eyes,Boyce nod like a child who was just asked of his favourite room. "I need to pee" His smile drop and quickly resurface.
"Oh, I'm going to show you to the restroom,I hope you don't mind"
Greta stood up hurriedly " Please do"Boyce laugh and amble ahead of her,at the corner of Greta eyes she could see Triplicate heading towards the vast room from the upper deck and once again she could see that scars...the scars she'd given him.
_______~~~~~~~~~~~~_______
"Trip" The man froze in ultimate shock,his guards lift their guns to avoid any surprises. "Oh please,I could've killed you a long time ago,if I'd the chance to"Isabelle snicker, Triplicate whole body tense up as he face her,the face he'd been craving to see all day but aroused fear the moment it appeared.
"You're in red, of course even I can get confused"Isabelle roll her eyes and glance at the table Boyce was earlier. "You are not thinking of having fun with me,are you?"
"You're not thinking of killing me here,are you?"Triplicate scoff. "Like I told you, I'm just a little bit terrified of you"
He amble closer to her and lean "I hope I don't get to see that fear in your eyes again"
"Won't you ask me who I'm more terrified of?"He look away. "You don't want to hear?"
"I'm jealous but I do want to here,Who has gotten my little prey terrified?"
Isabelle made her grin disappear as she mimick his actions earlier and look into his eyes. "The one who gave you those scars"She could swear she felt him flinch but he recovered quickly and lift her chin up with his cold hands.
"I hope you're alive to see that person lose everything in this world, you're wrong about my obsessions Isabelle, it's not the CD"
