THE SILENT ASSASSIN
********
PATRICIA
I groaned as I woke up, John was sleeping still as his brows moved in discomfort, sometimes I think he married me just to replace his wife or for Liz to have a mother. But either way Liz doesn’t see me like her mother.
I looked away in disdain as I went to our bathroom. I changed into a skirt and turtle neck shirt. My hair was in a ponytail as I sighed applying a thin layer of makeup.
I walked out as I closed the door behind me forcing a smile on my face, “Hey John.” I greet as he hopped of bed tracing his fingers in his jet black hair as he smiled.
“Hey, honey.” He yawned as he stretched his muscles. “how did you sleep?”
I smiled, “quite well, I woke up with a good mood too. I’m going to leave you alone so you can change.”
I walked out of the massive bedroom, into the large and long lonely hall. There was only one maid that was changing the flowers into new ones, today was Saturday so red roses. I went downstairs as my driver was waiting to take me to Leonard the tech company we owe. I sighed. I was leaving to work and as always Liz was still sleeping.
I went upstairs at the opposite staircase of the mansion into her room. I sat on her bed as I looked at her. She looked so much as her mother. Lisa Kelly Amore, I very beautiful woman indeed. I’ve met her ones, back when she was breathing.
Her brown eyes and blonde hair her thin pink lips and slim body. the perfect woman and I worked for her as her secretary until I was sent to Australia to work as manager of one of the companies there in Monica. Then the news came by of the double death of Kaeley and Lisa Kelly, they both died in just a week. And a year after that John asked me out.
I used a finger to move away her from her face. Her eyes were closed softly as she muttered, “mom?” then I’ve met with her blue eyes that she looked at me with, her eyes questioning why I was here.
“I am going to Leonard soon so I wanted to say good morning and bye before I go.”
“Ah, okay, you going with father?” she asked, her tone with him was totally an opposite from how she said ‘mom’.
After that I went downstairs seeing everyone panicking, on the other side of the wooden door I heard several male voices, “FBI, OPEN UP!”
Thank goodness there walls were soundproof as someone yelled, “HIDE!” at the top of their lungs. As everyone hid in the basement. Liz stayed back together with me and John.
John opened the door as the man wearing FBI uniform as one of them came forward I saw him, Tyler Miller. His blonde hair was pulled back and his eyes were sealed behind the sunglasses. Light smile on his lips as his eyes met John’s.
“John Amore,” he said his voice monotone as his head turned to me, true the dark shades I could see his pupils meeting mine, “Patricia Amore. We need to talk.”
The other guards stayed back as Tyler and we went to his office, I sat in the sofa while both of them sat on the desk table. John got up asking, “Coffee?”
“Sure, no sugar, you know how I like it man.” Tyler and John were friends, and yes Tiller infiltrated the CIA, I way he’s an ally but he always is careful I don’t know how he got to talk to us today.
“Tell me,” John turned, “why are you here Tyler?”
“well,” the blonde’s jolly voice switched into a serious one, “seeing that you have your human lie detector in here I’ll go to the point at ones.” I growled, “well there are people suspecting about you guys. And the government is getting more and more evidence of Amore.” Of course.
John lifted his head up as I nodded, he wasn’t lying. “Continue . . .”
“And I’ve convinced the government to let you be since your dangerous, but, but he said: ‘I’ll let them be, but he needs to give me three of his Elite fighters to work for us.’” he sighed pulling his shades off tracing his slender fingers on his face.
“John?” my husband was pale white.
“Three?” he sighed, “three of our best fighters, I can’t let them go, Lizabeth is one of our best hand to hand fighters. But we have Arianna, Vladimir, Asher and Ashton.” John sighed crossing his arms over his chest, “I’ll speak to them.”
THE SILENT ASSASSIN
When they left, John stayed back in his office telling me to let Arianna, Vladimir, Asher and Ashton got to see him. I went downstairs to the basement door hearing talking and laughter. I opened the metal door seeing them.
All of them turned to look at me when the sound of the door echoed in there. The AC was on and they were watching a movie.
“Oh, they left?” Allen – a member – said getting up from the sofa passing me by, his dark eyes glaring at me as he went. The rest stayed as they said they were going to continue watching the movie se7en a 1995 mystery movie.
I went to Vladi and Arianna telling them to go with Asher and Ashton to John’s office. Just then Jared entered the front door followed by his mother that smiled when her brown eyes met mine.
“Patty!” she yelled happily as she hugged me, Jared smiled as he waved then he greeted Liz kissing her cheeks, “how have you been? You asked me to come over, something wrong?”
We then walked to the separate living room.
THE SILENT ASSASSIN
***************
JOHN
I can’t let anyone of the family get hurt, nor anyone from the gang get to jail cause of father’s choice in life. I’ll let these four work under the CIA for a year. But I talked to Tyler about them going to England for school.
Then Arianna, Vladimir, Asher and Ashton entered my office closing the door behind them, “you okay uncle?” Vladimir asked sitting on a stool across from me. His pale brown eyes observing my every move.
Their files were on the table together with the contract over them.
“We have a problem.” I said pushing the sheet with an arm forward to Ashton as the eldest.
His blue eyes reads it and they widen, as he reads his eyes widened as his pupils shrunk. “what the hell?!”
Then Vladimir snatched the white sheet from him reading, “why is the government asking for three elite?” he asked eyeing the sheet his hear tilled slightly up.
“as it’s written on the contract they need someone to eliminate a mafia in England and you four are going there in a few days so I thought: ‘why not you four?’ but of course three of you are going to be in the mission. Who wants to?”
Vladimir was the first to say, “nope, I’m out of this, the last people I’ll work for is the government, you three will do it!”
Arianna and the others agreed into doing it and signed the contract and left the room.
“Things are gonna change here.” I muttered to myself as father walked in, his blue-grey eyes send chills down my spine, his black hair hidden under a fancy hat, his hands clasped behind him as mother entered with him.
“Johannes.” Mother said clasping my hands in hers, “Tell me, what does that tattoo on our body mean?”
Father growled, “Grace, let him, when his gang falls into dust, its him.”
Mother turned to him, “Lorenzo! Requerda, his place was made as a shelter even if we make people shrink in fear we have some people to take care of.”
He sighed, “Whatever.”
“So?” Mother’s brown eyes twinkled as she waited for the answer.
“The red Roses mean the main family branch— . . .”
I was cut off my her saying: “not that honey, the tattoo itself, why we made that one as the mark and what the meaning behind the mark.”
I then remember, “the deceasing rose means how it fought till the end and hands it power to the younger on, and the needles on them means how a rose protect themselves from predators into snatching them. Right?”
