Chapter 5 5

Ellinita's POV:

"Cheers, girls!"

I'm here now at Sissy Bar. The bar that Chadwick built, which is exclusive to us,.

Today I invited some of my friends to hang out. The case is that Hailee, my other best friend, is not here.

They were in London with her husband, Reynaldo, the brother of Chadwick's ex-girlfriend Arshani.

I really envy Hailee; it's good that she has a husband and a child. Chadwick, on the other hand, would have had a wife and child if Lareina, that witch sister of Lorcan, hadn't gone rogue.

How is he? Is it fun to rub the grate?

How about mine? When will it arrive? Maybe at the right time, when my pubic hair is white. Oh, that's rude.

It's annoying; I'm drinking now to forget the betrayal I committed with him. Even though it's bad because I'm leaving Silvertian, my mind is still spacing out.

More than a week has passed since Lorcan was imprisoned. Since he was imprisoned, I never set foot in Silvertian again; I just sent my things.

I am now here in the Philippines. I'm going to start building a business here; my being a fashion designer will be put to waste if I don't use my skills.

I also feel guilty for the number of people I killed. I have no conscience; only Lorcan brought it up.

'Fuck, Lorcan again.' I thought.

But I don't want to lie to my parents, Chadwick and Katty. They don't know why I entered as an assassin; maybe mom will pass out if she finds out.

What reason do I have for doing this? I want to avenge my youngest sister, Katty. I didn't even do anything when someone took advantage of Katty.

She was crying, and I couldn't do anything. I can still hear her throwing things in her room every night.

This is the only way I know to hopefully find the person who did this to Katty, but now that I'm retired, I haven't been able to do that.

Then I met Lorcan, and I sinned against George. Why do Chadwick and I seem to be unlucky in our love lives?

We always make mistakes. It's our fault; what the hell?

"Boo!"

"Lorcan's pussy!"

I screamed in shock when my friends shocked me. I looked at Qill.

"Who is Lorcan, Ellinita?" Qill asked me.

I turned my gaze to Charlotte. She looked at me seriously, as if checking my reaction. I'm dead; that'll suck my seat.

"You're gossipy. Shoot, I mean Qill. Go to your baby first; I'll just talk to Ellinita." Charlotte's rejection of Qill made me nervous.

Charlotte pulled me out of here by the bar counter, and we went up to the VIP rooms.

She made me sit on the couch before she locked the door. She sat across from me and opened two beers. She handed one to me before she sat with her legs over the other.

"Ellinita Colleen." Charlotte called my name.

I feel like I'm sweating, even though it's not hot. I just drank; I don't know how to tell Charlotte.

Me, Hailee, and Charlotte are best friends. Charlotte and I were the only ones who entered as Assassins because Hailee was not too violent. She just continued to be a businesswoman; she is now successful.

"Uhm, you shouldn't have called Q-Qill earlier, shoot."

"Ellinita Colleen, what don't I know? Don't change the subject." Charlotte asked seriously and raised an eyebrow at me.

I just sighed before taking a sip of the rest of my beer. I opened a new one before looking directly at Charlotte.

"B-Because..."

"Because what is Ellinita?"

"Because I kissed Lorcan!" I shouted, so Charlotte suddenly stood up from her seat.

"Fuck, what!? "He asked me in shock.

"Let me explain first. I know it's wrong, but listen to me first." I pleaded with Charlotte, so she sighed.

I drank from the bottle I was holding before speaking. It is uplifting and anxiety-relieving.

"You know Lorcan, don't you? Fredrich, the one who kidnapped me," I started.

Charlotte nodded. She is just listening to what I say.

"I don't know when and why I did that, but we kissed," I said sadly.

"Ellinita, were you drunk when that happened?" Charlotte asked.

"No, Charlotte, I was sane. Lorcan suddenly kissed me, and then I don't know what happened to my body. My body seemed to like his kiss, but in my mind I knew it was wrong. Until it happened, it happened, and that's it." I give up.

"Is it really just a kiss, Ellinita?" Charlotte asked.

"Yes, believe me," I confirm.

"I also have something to tell you. During the time when you were gone, Mereoleona and George were always together. If I didn't know them, I would have thought that the two of them were together. It's not that I'm condoning what you did; I'm just saying that maybe you're being cheated by George," Charlotte said and drank.

I was stunned by what Charlotte said. You mean, every time I turn my back, they do something behind my back? I admit I made a mistake too, but I have no feelings for Lorcan. But George and Mereoleona? Those two used to be in a relationship.

"Shh, Ellinita, don't cry. It's just my theory that those two have something going on. But it's true that they're too close," Charlotte added.

Charlotte came to me and hugged me. I wrapped my arm around her waist.

Am I crying? This is painful. I thought I was the only one who made a mistake, but maybe George is worse. I might have known that they'd been back together a long time ago.

"Don't jump to conclusions just yet; here you go again," Charlotte said, calming me down.

Charlotte is right; I shouldn't think about anything first. Maybe they are just really close; after all, those two also had something before.

Maybe I just can't accept that I made a mistake, so I blame George. I'm so bummed.

"Come on, let's go home. I want to rest," I said.

We both stood up and went down the stairs. I'm a little dizzy; I think the alcohol hit me.

"Nice dress, Ellinita; did you design that?" Agent DB asked when I bumped into them.

Today I am wearing a deep v-neck semi-fitted sleeveless black dress that I designed myself. I even paired it up with pointed heels.

I have a talent for drawing, and I'm a creative person. I intend to become an architect, but I might become infertile due to stress, so no thanks.

"Yes, I designed it, thank you. Didn't George go?" I asked.

"No, he's busy and has a business meeting. Didn't he text you?" Yami asked.

I took my cellphone from my Christian Dior saddle bag and checked the messages. None of them are from George.

"Nothing; I'm going home soon."

"Shot first, Ellinita!" Charlotte shouted.

That's why the bitch disappeared beside me; she was drinking with our friends. She was still holding a bottle of Bacardi. The bitch-she even drank from the bottle!

Qill handed me a bottle of tequila. She opened it before handing it to me.

"When you finish that Ellinita, I'll give you a customized caliber-45 gun! Any colour with your name on it!" Qill's bribe.

Her business is solid-a company that manufactures high-calibre firearms. Her offer is very tempting! Who am I to refuse?

"Game!" I shouted, and I drank the tequila bottle.

Half an hour later, we were all wasted. I almost crawled over the saddlebag I had thrown before I could reach it. I almost passed out from dancing earlier.

I made my way out of the Sissy Bar. I even tripped at the entrance, so I almost fell.

"Are you Miss Ellinita Colleen Heartwell?" A fat man asked me.

"Yes, I am-wahhhh!"

My stomach suddenly turned so that I vomited on this man. He pushed me, so I laughed.

"Sorry, I'm already drunk and wasted," I said with a smile while pointing at him.

I am seeing him with three heads, so I pointed to the very end.

"Come with us, miss; you're under arrest."

"Shut up! Bring me to my house; I'm sleepy," I said, motioning for the other uncle to carry me.

"Sweet dreams piglets, hihihi."

I said before I closed my eyes. I'm so sleepy, I want to take a rest.
