Chereads / Scarlet Witch / Chapter 2 - Chapter One I

Chapter 2 - Chapter One I

Location: Las Vegas

"Ha ha. I win again boys. I must say, you guys suck at this." An ebony lady said in joy as she took all the cash from the center of the table to her section, where all the cash she had gotten from her many rounds of poker.

Every men groaned at the table, not liking how he was able to defeat them and take all their money in many rounds of poker that was played. Hearing them brought a smirk to her face.

From her peripheral, she saw a man, in his late forties walking over to her. He sat down next to her and kept looking at her, not even caring if his stares made her feel uncomfortable or not.

She cringed inwardly and turned to him, putting on her bet fake smile, "Don't you know that staring is very rude?"

"Pardon me, I just couldn't help it, you are very beautiful. What is a beautiful damsel like you doing here?" He chuckled before noticing the stack of cash next to her. "Did you win all that?" He asked.

"What? Can't a beautiful damsel like myself play poker and get some cash to spoil herself with?" She said smiling at him. He chuckled again, "Usually, pretty girls like you are just here as an escort or our accessories. Take for example that pretty lady over there." He said before pointing to a lady sitting on a man's lap, probably whispering dirty things into his ear while he was playing poker.

She rolled her eyes at his words and turned back to him. Noticing her change in mood made the man raise a questioning brow at her, "Did I say something wrong dear? I noticed your change in demeanor."

"Oh it's nothing, just that your choice of words seemed to have made me..." She paused, looking for a word to use, "Disgusted." She finished with a smile. "Oh, pardon my words. How about I treat you to dinner as an apology?" He grinned.

She mustered up a smile before replying, "Sounds wonderful." He looked at her stash of cash before calling one of his bodyguards to get her a briefcase to put her money before they left the casino. The valet drove his car to them and she got inside with him, then the bodyguard drove them to a restaurant.

It seemed like he was the owner of the restaurant because the receptionist took them to a table without the receptionist asking for a reservation. They both ordered for their meal and soon enough it arrived."I never really told you my name, it's Daniel Martin." He said with a smile. "Scarlet." Scarlet said before bringing her wine glass to her lips and taking a sip.

Of course Scarlet knew his name, for he is her little assignment to 'take care' of. "A beautiful name for a beautiful lady like you." Daniel said before reaching his hand over the table to place on Scarlet's hand. She glanced at his hand that was placed on hers before glancing at him, "You seem a bit touchy on our first date." She shook her head while chuckling. Daniel smiled "Pardon me, I just couldn't help myself."

"You seem like a pretty huge deal, like you just waltzed in like the restaurant is yours." Scarlet laughed and Daniel joined in, "Yeah, the restaurant belongs to me. I'm a pretty huge thing in Las Vegas." He bragged. Scarlet nodded, "Well I'm not," She smiled before continuing, "I'm a model.""That job really fits you. I could tell you're one by your beauty, it would have been a great shock to me if you weren't" Daniel said with a smile. "I just wish I could be a supermodel like Kylie Jenner or Naomi Campbell but I seem to be getting unlucky." She pouted.

"Well, I have a solution for you." Daniel said before removing his hand from Scarlet's which made her relax more, "Oh! And what is that if I may ask?" Scarlet asked leaning forward."You'll be mine and I'll make you a model of the most famous fashion brands." Daniel suggested.

Scarlet acted like she was thinking about the offer before she nodded her head with a smile, "Deal."Hearing her answer brought a smile to Daniel's face, "Well then, how about we head over to my place to celebrate our agreement." He said then gave her a wink.

'Ugh, the things I do for my job.' Scarlet said inwardly. "Okay." She said with a smile. Daniel called for the cheque while staring at Scarlet with lust in his eyes. They got out of the restaurant to the car before the drove off to Daniel's mansion.

Getting down from the car, Scarlet looked around, seeing that he had a lot of bodyguards she turned to Daniel, "You really have a lot of bodyguards." She said in amazement."I do, don't I? I have a lot of enemies so I need to be extra careful." Daniel said walking over to Scarlet, putting his hand on her lower back.

Hearing that Scarlet turned to him in shock, "Enemies?! I hope I'm going to be safe now that I'm yours.""You don't need to be scared my dear, as long as your under my roof you are protected so you don't have any need to be scared." Daniel reassured.

She nodded before Daniel led her into his mansion. He took her to his kitchen and served her a glass of wine, "No butler?" Scarlet asked bringing the glass to her lips."I don't need one. I can't be sure with the people I hire around me, they might be one of my enemies." Daniel said putting an arm around Scarlet's waist.

"How are you sure that one of your bodyguards aren't sent by your enemies to spy on you? Maybe I should get going because I don't feel safe here." She moved away from him only for him to pull her back to him. "There's no need to leave, you are safe here." Daniel convinced. Scarlet nodded her head. "How about we head up to my room? I can't wait to feast my eyes on all your curves." He said huskily.

Scarlet nodded and took her briefcase from the floor and Daniel led her upstairs to his room. He unbuckled his belt as soon as they got into his bedroom and the sight made Scarlet cringed.

She walked up to him and gave him a forehead kiss, "I'll be right back, make sure to get ready for me." She said with lust laced in her voice. "Oh, I will." Daniel reassured with a smirk growing on his face. Scarlet grabbed him by his tie and led him like a dog to the bed and pushed him on it, "I'll be right back." She said before heading to the bathroom, taking her purse with her.

She undressed leaving her only in her underwear and she opened her purse and brought out a vile containing a black liquid and poured it into her mouth without swallowing it and went outside and saw Daniel only in his underwear."Beautiful," H spoke with lust, eying Scarlet's body. Scarlet, without saying a word walked over to the wine bottle on his nightstand and pretended to take a sip before walking up to him and straddling him.

She kissed him, the liquid entering his mouth in the process and he swallowed it, thinking it was the wine. He placed his hand on her waist, "Let me feel you dear." Scarlet moved her hips, grinding him, "Patience."Then she got up, "I need to use the bathroom real quick." Daniel sighed, "Okay, I'll be waiting." "Don't be dead before I'm done using the bathroom." Scarlet joked. Daniel chuckled at her joke, "Don't worry dear, no one can come in.

"Scarlet nodded before entering the bathroom and closing the door behind her. She rushed to her purse and took out another vile containing a clear liquid then she drank it immediately, then took out something from her purse before leaving the bathroom and walked up to a horny Daniel laying on the bed.

"Are you ready for me?" She said seductively. Daniel nodded and pulled her to his lap and he unhooked her bra before removing it from her body, then suddenly he paused before his eyes widened in pain. "Daniel, what's wrong?" Scarlet asked before inspecting his face and saw that blood was oozing from his mouth and nose in a rush.

She screamed loudly, alerting his bodyguards to the room. "What's wrong miss?" One of them asked. Scarlet cried, getting off from Daniel's body, "It's Daniel. Is he okay? What wrong with him?" She asked covering her body with the duvet.

Three of the bodyguards rushed to Daniel's body, and Scarlet used the opportunity to bring out the guns that she was hiding all along and put a bullet through the five guards heads, killing them. "Five down, twenty more to go." She said to herself before going to the bathroom to get her things and wear her clothes then her phone buzzed with a message;

Chris:

Is it done?

Scarlet:

Yeah, the pig is dead.

Chris:

Don't forget the files. I'm waiting for you in the street.

Scarlet:

Okay.

Chris:

His bodyguards are much, can you take them all?

Scarlet:

Nothing I can't handle.

Chris:

Be careful.

Scarlet smiled at her brother's message before walking out of the bathroom. She walked to his closet and started looking for his safe and finally seeing it and inputting the passcode and it worked, "Wow, with friends like Steve, who needs enemies?" She said to herself.

Steve was the guy who is a very good friend of Daniel who hired Scarlet to kill Daniel, and he was the one who also gave her the passcode to the safe. Taking out the files from the safe, her eyes landed on the money and jewel in the safe and she took them all, keeping them in her briefcase of money.

She walked out his room when she was done and saw a bodyguard in the hallway, probably looking for his co-workers. Wasting no time, she shot a bullet into his head before heading downstairs and went to the kitchen to get herself a banana. A bodyguard entered the kitchen and Scarlet turned immediately aiming her gun at him only for her to notice it is Christopher; her brother.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" She asked angrily. He shrugged, "I wanted to make sure that you're okay." Scarlet looked at him like she wanted his head to explode right now, "So like imagine if I was in actual trouble, what the fuck would you do?"

"Help you. Duh." He said in a duh tone. Scarlet slapped her forehead at his words, "I'm the Muscles and you're the Tech guy. You have never even killed anyone before and you can't even stand the sight of blood so tell me my dear Christopher, how exactly would you 'Help me'?" She said narrowing her eyes.

Christopher stayed silent, Scarlet sighed and gave him the briefcase, "Why don't you help me by taking this to the car and wait for little sis to take care of her mission real quick." She tapped his shoulder before pushing him out of the kitchen, only to meet more bodyguards."Hey, I don't think I've seen you before." One of the bodyguards said to Christopher. Scarlet sighed, "Okay, play party is over, Chris don't look back." Christopher nodded before walking away from his sister then left the house.

"Who is he Miss?" One of them asked. "He is my bodyguard." Scarlet almost let out a snort at her words. How on earth can a guy who can't take a punch be her bodyguard? They nodded in understanding. "What were you doing in the kitchen?" One of the bodyguards who drove her and Daniel to the house asked."I came to look for a gun to eat." Scarlet answered raising the banana in hand.

The guards laughed in amusement before one of them answered, "That's a banana Miss." Scarlet looked down at her hand before answering, "Oh silly me, I meant a banana." Then she dropped the banana and pulled out both her guns from her dress and putting a bullet through their heads.

More bodyguards were heading her way and she cursed inwardly before placing one of the guns back into her dress pocket then took a knife from the kitchen and rushed to their direction.

Minutes later she stood in the room full of bodies, their blood painting her ebony skin red. She walked out of the house and went to her brother's car, where he was waiting for her and she got in.

"Urgh, you'll get blood all over my ride." Christopher said almost puking at the sight of the blood. Scarlet rolled her eyes, "When is our flight leaving?" "As soon as you take a bath and clean that blood away from your skin." He said with disgust laced in his tone.

Scarlet glared at him then she grinned with a mischievous glint her eyes before she leaned over and wrapped her arms around Christopher and pulled him in a hug, "Aww, look at you, you're squirming in disgust. Aww," She cooed before laughing at her brother, "Now we're both covered in blood so our flight won't leave until we're both clean." She leaned back in her seat and faced the window, avoiding Christopher's glare.

"How are we going to get into the hotel with all this blood?" He said, almost yelling. "Should we go into the house and take a bath in his golden plated bathtub?" Scarlet suggested. "Have you lost your mind?" Chris asked in shock.

"What? You're the one that wants to be clean before we get the hotel to look less suspicious." Scarlet spoke in 'a matter of fact tone'. "That's not what I meant Annah." Chris said in frustration. Scarlet thought for a while before speaking up, "Did you bring my extra clothes?"

"Yeah, it's in the back seat." He pointed behind him and Scarlet turned, taking her clothes before opening the car door and getting down from the car, "You can stay bloody and wait for me or you can probably wash your face in the pool behind the house, bye."

"She isn't really going to take a bath in his house right?" Chris asked himself, "Of course she would. She is a maniac" He looked down at himself and shook his head, "Thank God I have extra clothes with me. I'm going to throw these clothes away." He said with disgust.
