Jade’s POV

Staring at the gigantic brown gate in front of me, I heave a sigh of motivation, taking off my sunglasses. Jayden’s voice replayed itself in my mind; his last sentence was more of an encouragement. He was actually the one that drove me to this location, leaving me to my fate.

“So this is it…your journey begins now from here. It just the duplex house painted cream and….” He stated before I cut him short

” Yea I know. You have given me the description before..and I have the map sorted out” I rolled my eyes. He smirked, tapping his fingers on the starring

” You know one thing I like about you…is that fact that you believe you can do all things…”

” Through Christ who strengthens me” I replied sarcastically. He laughed out

” Well..it’s cool.. but that’s not what I was about saying. Never knew you know your Bible. Anyways…there is no big deal in hearing other people’s opinion even if you know all…theirs might be better you know” he winked. I was already getting fed up with the talk

“Just get on your point and let me get out of here” I scoffed

“Oh..there are several houses on that street painted cream…but it’s different because it has a brown gate unlike the others” he smirked. I shook my head

“For damn sake Jayden…they all have their numbers…I’m not dumb” I resorted
“Just get out Jade…the big guy is waiting” he snickered. I should have known that he was just wasting my time here. Pulling the door open, I got out slamming the it to his face I heard him laugh

“Hey…you won’t wanna spoil the car’s door..cause you will fix it when you get back”

“Whatever” I noted, about taking a step forward when he called me
“Hey…”

“What is it again”

“I trust you Jade…one week is enough for you…just kick his a$$ and get back home” he blew kisses. I was tempted to roll my eyes, Jayden is such a flirt. Though he is smart and also talk sensible things most times.
“Thanks Jay…”

And that was the encouragement I needed, now I will have to face it all myself. This isn’t a group mission, or a one day job killing a mere fellow. This is not just an assassin job, I also needed to clear records that’s won’t be easy to get. God damn that man if he gives me a hard time..I won’t mind blowing his head off before completing the mission.

After placing a gentle knock on the gate, the sound of a dog barking followed before the clanging sound of the gate being unlocked. The face of a dark man surfaced as he glared at me while squinting

” Who are you?” He asked in a rather African accent
” Hi…I’m Annabelle Osborn…the new housekeeper, I’m here to see your boss, Mr. John. He asked me to resume today.” I replied, sounding professionally. With the look on his face, he doubted my words.

I won’tt blame him, I didn’t dress like a mere housekeeper..I dressed to ki*ll. I won’t blame my looks, I’m considered one of the prettiest lady in the clan..but Kyla is a goddess, and a devil within.
With the squint on his face, I believe he was contemplating on if he should believe my story or not…the security here seem tight I think. The dogs were still barking hard

” What’s going on there” a voice rang out from inside. That will be my prey speaking

“There is a lady out here…she said she has an appointment with you sir” he replied in same accent..though he tried to sound formal.

“Let her in”

” Yes sir…..come in” he opened the gate wider for me to come in. Holding my bag firmly, I walk steadily towards the house entrance, where he stood, with his two hands stuck into his pockets. He had this expressionless face on, while I decided to keep an innocent face.

He looks like a man in his late thirties, with a throbbing pot belly, not that big though. And why will a member of the force have such physiques, he looks quite different from how he looked in the picture shown to me. Perhaps that was how he was when he was young; after eating the government money so bad..it’s now time to grow big tummy..f**k it Jade

“Good day sir…” I was yet to complete my statement when he shush me off
” You are late…” I snapped. I almost frown but squinted instead.
” I’m sorry sir…but it just ten…”
” It’s five minutes past ten Annabelle, and a you were told..I hate late comers, or people that are too slow doing their works. How do you want to keep the house in the right positions when you can’t even keep to the exact interview time”

” I’m sorry sir…I replied. The cab I took…”

” I hate that word sorry…don’t use it on me…just accept my own point…I don’t need to hear yours…infact…just leave…you ain’t competent” he slashed. I was taken aback..what sort of human being is this, he couldn’t even give me the chance to express myself. What ever, I felt like slashing his throat open when he was speaking.

Since he doesn’t want the sorry word..there is no point arguing with him..I will just leave and come back to ki*ll him later in the night. I hate nonsense.

I heave a pitiful sigh, giving him one last innocent look before turning to leave. I could feel his eyes on my body as I walk ahead. Was he looking at my a$$? But is this how I will end this mission, Kyla should have given me more info about his temper, such an idiot of an officer.

I was some meters away from the gate when he called me back. I returned hastinlgy, to avoid another harsh word
” Well..I just decided to change my mind about you..you are free to start your work..but if there is any mistake, then consider yourself out.” He gritted
” Yes..sir..”

” Mr. Darkin” he snorted
” Yes Mr. Darkin…” I replied. He nodded his head.

” Hope you know the necessary requirements that is expected of you…mind you, you ain’t here just to keep the house in order…you will also be my cook”

” I know about that….”
” Your ID?” He requested stretching forth his hand. I placed it on his palm as he glanced through it before handling it back. I can swear he didn’t notice it’s fake, and whereas he couldn’t get his eyes off my body, so how will he notice. But it will surely be hard for one to know, Jayden is good at his job. I think he is better than Mica in cases like this

” Good…your boss has already messaged me that you will be here soon.. your room is the third door on the left side of the East wing. There is an inscription “Housekeeper” on it. Find your way there..and start your work immediately. I’m going out..I will be back for lunch” he noted walking towards his car and drove off.
I decided to roll my eyes this time, cursing him inwardly.

Kyla’s POV

I still can’t get over what Cindy said, The Mask is playing his game smartly, but I won’t fall victim. How the hell did he know that we will come for Evans’ mum if there wasn’t anyone giving out information.

I trust my men, I’m not sure if there is anyone of them that will sell us out, and.if there is, I won’t hesitate to slit his or her throat off. I treat them rightly, and give them the right amount their pay every month, including tips.

Their life in the clan is not as frustrated as when Luna was the leader. I saw hell in the hands of that woman; she was a demonic beast to me despite being the daughter to her husband. I still didn’t know what dad saw in her, was it beauty…huhn…my foot.

I don’t blame who I am now…she made the beast in me…I could remember the day dad hit her because of me, that day sealed the deal of hatred between the both of us.

FLASHBACK

15 Years back

I got home from school after the day’s work was over, I didn’t meet anyone at home, not even the maids, well aside the gatekeeper who told me Luna was home. I decided to call Dad and ask of his location

“Baby girl..I’m having an important appointment now..I will call you later…” He rushed his words
” But dad…there is no one at home…not even the maids…I’m hungry” I whined

He paused for a moment before speaking up again

” What about Luna…she is home…tell her to make you something” he stated. I rolled my eyes

” That b!tch” I stated, rather not loudly, but he heard it

” Come on Kyla..I have told you numbers of time to stop using a fowl language, Luna is my girlfriend…you need to respect that ..she will become a mother to you soon” he noted. Well, they were still dating as at then

“Whatever…I will just tell her” I replied..hanging up before he could speak. I hated Luna right from the first day he introduced her to me as his girlfriend.. though I didn’t know the business she has with him before they came together, neither did I know about my dad being a Mafia lord. All I knew was that he had an industrial firm which he runs, as a business man

I got to Luna’s room contemplating on if I should inform her of my hunger statues…but where the hell did the maids go, and why can’t she make my meal before my arrival..since she’s now the lady of the house. I was about knocking when I began to hear mo@ns, it became louder as I listened further. Is Luna cheating on dad, I thought. In order to confirm my curiosity, I pushed the door open, leaving my manners aside

” What the hell…” Luna yelled, getting off a man who she was riding on. She had this disgustingly look on, as she stared at me. They both were completely nUde, having a hot f**k section.

” You bas***d, can’t you damn knock” she yelled, flinging a pillow at me, as she pulled the bed sheet, wrapping it round her body. The man smirked, picking his cloth off the floor. I managed to dodge the pillow, but glared furiously at her
” I have always known that you are a b!tch..how dare you cheat on dad” I snapped at her. She boiled with fury, dragging her feet towards me
” What did you just call me…are you daft”

” I called you b!tch…so..what are you going to do about it…hit me.. huhn?” I slashed. She gritted furiously, folding her fist. I know that she was trying hard not to hit me, but that’s her own problem, I will continue to be rude to her, as long as dad is there to support me

“The next time you come into my room without my permission…I will cut your tongue and feed it to the dogs” she yelled. The man behind was already fully clothed

“Whatever, just go and make me something to eat..and send that thing out of my father’s house” I seethed referring to the man. I was yet to complete my statement when a stinging slap landed on my cheek.

I could swear seeing a quite number of stars before regaining my stance. It stung for more than a minute. I released the tears in my eyes to flow freely, glaring at Luna who had slapped me, as she returned the same stare

” You won’t dare talk to me that way…”
“Luna…come on…she is just a child” I heard the man say, chuckling from behind. Her palm print was shown on my cheek, giving it a reddish spot. Dad got enraged that night when he came and saw the mark. I told him that Luna refused to cook for me and instead slapped me for talking back at her.

I didn’t tell him about the s*x section.. because it will be just a waste of time. He will still forgive her after she had given him a good shot. He loves Luna but she was after his wealth, and he was too blind to see it. I was just ten years, but I knew the difference between love and lust.

I could remember her screams when Dad hits her that night, I couldn’t recognise her the next day, our fight continued that way. But one thing I was sure of is that, the man she had a section with was no other person than “The Mask” who I later found out to be dad’s business partner, before enmity came in.

Present~

My phone rang jolting me out of the world of thought..it was Jayden
” Hey…”

“Boss…I have taken her to the location, all issues sorted out.” He stated.

“Good….and the young lass” I asked, referring to the real Annabelle
” She has been injected. Wizard will dispose her”

“No….keep her there till the mission is over…”

There was silence before he spoke again
” Ok boss”
I hung up and called Wizard
” Boss” he greeted
” Keep an eye on Jade…incase she incure challenges on her mission, and get her whatsoever she wants”
” Ok boss”

After the call, I message Jade on a secret conversation, telling her to always message Wizard once she needs anything..

Another call came in from my client
” Chief” I greeted, rather sharply
” About the job?” He asked in his usual cold vocie

” My girl is on it..you will receive a report soon”

” Good…but I gat another job for you” he stated. I heave a sigh, rubbing my temple

” I thought you go with the slang ” a job at a time” I smirk

” Yea…but this isn’t mine..my trusted fried here needs your help. Let’s meet at our usual location” he muttered and hung up

F**k, I will need to abort this mission for now, but still operate on a low key. Killing The Mask is important, but the clan needs money, and the only way to get that is by working for clients.
