Agercia Series 1: Her Finest Betrayal [Completed]

24

THE Tyrant's eyes were emotionless as he sat and faced his transaction partners. The people inside are laughing as they smoke cigarettes and sip wine.

"Why don't you even speak, Regan?" Asked the mocking man who was staring at the Tyrant.

"Why would I talk to someone who doesn't respect me as the Tyrant?!" His response was cold as ice and dark like an abandoned forest.

"Don't be so mean Regan, just relax and let's have fun, especially since I brought the new product" said a man, just as he was about to take out the case when the door suddenly opened.

The Tyrant smiled half and crossed his arms while watching his ace do the job for him.

Everyone's attention was focused only on kay Ara. "Hija, you seem to be lost?!" Said the man who had teased the Tyrant earlier.

Ara didn't say a word and then slammed the door shut. "Am I?" she uttered.

Ara slowly walked in and then sat in the vacant seat. She looked coldly at the people inside, then laid her two hands on the table.

"We're having a business meeting here. You'd better get out of the room, Hija." the man on the left side of the Tyrant pleads with her.

She did not answer and poured the wine into the glass.

"Don't be rude, you are interrupting our meeting-" the man could not continue what he was going to say when the other interrupted "You were the woman with the first archon earlier?!."

Everyone was shocked and quickly pulled out a gun while Ara was still emotionless and just continued to drink alcohol.

Ara grinned sarcastically, then dropped the glass on the table. "Oops! sorry!-" Without a blink of an eye, she quickly stood up and pulled out a gun, then pointed it at the man next to him. "Move and you're dead."

The man was unable to move due to the speed of the incident. Recently, the gun was pointed at Ara but they quickly changed their position. The gun was pointed at him while Ara was no longer in front of him.

"Why are you doing nothing? Do something Tyrant!?" The man exclaimed.

"Tyrant? Why did you suddenly just call me to my position?" The Tyrant said flatly.

The man tried to break free but Ara fired her gun so it fell to the floor. "I told you not to move, or else you're dead!."

"Who the hell are you?!" The other man shouted. "Don't you know the policy ?! You cannot hurt a member of another organization in this event!."

The Tyrant laughed while still sitting, then teasingly clapped three times. "You did a great job!" The tyrant praised Ara.

The people inside were shocked by what the tyrant had done. "What's going on !?" the other man on the right asked.

"Teaching a lesson- the next time you will underestimate the Tyrant, the Tyrant himself will end your life", Ara warned them, then took off her mask, which surprised everyone.

"A-agatha?!" The man stammered. They know Ara as Agatha within the triad. Her soul is blocked and ruthless, she obeys whatever the leader orders. That is why no one wants to face her, because she recognizes no ally but only the Tyrant and the organization, but not including the members of the Triad.

"I know, you all know what kind of person I am- I only work for the Tyrant, be more afraid of him than me because if he runs out of patience you will all fall to the ground and end up like him" Ara pointed to the man lying on the floor. "Believe me, you won't like it," Ara added.

"I said scare them a little, look at what you have done to them, they are like frightened kittens," the tyrant said, then stood up and picked up a briefcase containing the new product. "I'll take this as remembrance. Take care of your punk partner." The Tyrant then left the room with Ara.

"I forgive you, let me know what's going on, call me when you need something. Be careful". The Tyrant said then that they had completely parted ways.

Ara, on the other hand, went to the restroom to wash her hands to get rid of the blood that had smeared on her hands. Fortunately, her clothes were black so that the blood could not be seen.

No one was inside the restroom because the auction was still going on. She immediately washed her hands and returned her gun to its original position. "

Her gaze went to the mirror in front of her where she could see her reflection. She smiled bitterly as she wiped away a bead of tears that had escaped. "Face like an angel but looks like a demon when you look closely- When will it end?!, Agatha?" she murmured. That was the first time she called herself by her real name again.

She was not by herself as she walked down the hallway until she reached the balcony where the back of the venue could be seen. Lush trees and a bright moon were exposed when she reached the balcony.

Suddenly, Dylan reappeared from behind and pityingly looked at her. "Were you happy with what you did?" Dylan asked sarcastically.

"Please, not now" she answered sparingly.

"When do you want it? When the time comes, will you become a monster?! I know what happened, I know what the Tyrant asked you to do again!. Please, stop until it's too late", Dylan uttered and almost begged to hear his plea.

"What do you want me to do ? This is me now- and it's hard to change what I've become-" ani Ara.

"That's not you Agatha, That's what the Tyrant wants you to be!- Don't you see that everything is not right? Do you really need to stain your hands with blood? -"

"Why don't you try to run away? isn't that also what you should do if you really want to get out of the triad?" Ara asked back.

"Unlike you, I take care of someone and I don't want her to get involved in my messy life, so I will do everything I can to protect her" Dy replied.

"You cannot avoid danger as long as the Triad is still connected to you. You should never let her into your life, Dy- If you really want to protect Celina, you should let her go." Ara said, she just brought back what Dylan was telling her to do.

"This is not about me, this is about you!" Dylan said emphatically "You're lost and I'm saying this as your friend dahil iyon ang kailangan mo, so if you don't listen to me, that's your problem. And at least I didn't miss out on being your friend", Dylan added, and was worried about his friend's condition.

Ara couldn't answer and just looked away.

"If you don't stop, you're evil, most definitely," Dylan said, then walked out.

She seemed weakened by what her friend had said, so she clung to the ledge of the balcony to draw strength. She was caught in her chest because it suddenly ached, she sobbed softly and covered her mouth with her palm.

ZANDRO was looking around because Ara still couldn't come back. He couldn't stand it anymore so he stood up. "I'll just look for Ara". He told his colleagues and finally left to look for his Sandra.

He first went to the girl's room but there was no one inside, so he went for a walk to find her.

When he reached the opposite side of the balcony, he heard someone talking, so he did not enter first.

"You're evil, most definitely" he heard the man say.

Zandro heard footsteps so he immediately hid. The man who was introduced by the politician earlier came out. After that, he immediately went to the balcony. He was shocked that Ara was there while clinging to the ledge.

"What happened to you ?" Zandro immediately asked when he got close to Ara.

Ara quickly wiped away her tears and then fixed her posture. "It's nothing, napuwing lang ako."

Zandro sighed when Ara lied again. "Do you want us to go home?" he said, then he put Ara's arm on his shoulder to support her.

When they got to their table, he immediately told Zyl and Than that he would take Ara home.

"I'll take care of Salem. She's my date so I oblige her", Zyl said.

"We'll take care of everything", Than added.

Zandro and Ara nodded, Zandro was holding Ara's waist, while Ara was still silent until they reached the parking lot of the building.

When they were in front of the limousine, Zandro took Ara's hand and stared at it intently. "If you're still not ready, you don't have to answer right away, I'm ready to wait no matter how long."

Ara was slightly silent, then looked down. She was about to answer when the first Archon suddenly fainted. "Not again!" she exclaimed and sighed deeply as she frowned, "Why do you lose consciousness every time I'm with you!, Kikiligin na sana ako eh!" she patted Zandro's chest with annoyance and then helped him get into the limousine even though he was too heavy.

"F*ck, I have never driven a limousine in my entire life" she exclaimed, then slammed the door shut.

Ara stopped talking when she heard the crack of feet coming from nearby. She slowly pulled out her knife and gun and looked around. She heard footsteps from behind, so she immediately turned around and aimed the gun at him.

"M-mam?!" The man stuttered as he raised both hands "Ako ho yung driver nyo, nakatanggal po ako ng tawag kay Congressman kaya dali-dali ho akong bumalik dito sa parking lot."

Ara sighed when she saw the driver, so she immediately lowered her gun. "Pasensya na ho, Manong."

The old man just nodded and couldn't smile out of fear. Ara saw the old man's red face so she immediately hid her weapon, "Nako, pasensya na po talaga ha!. Hindi ko po sinasadya na takutin kayo." Ara said, then held the old man's hand to calm him down.

"Wala ho iyon Mam, nagulat lang ho talaga ako- tara na ho para makapagpahinga na kayo" anito.

Ara nodded and grabbed her nape. "F*ck, wrong move again" she murmured. Before she entered the limousine, she was distracted by a glimpse of a man in black.

She backed away from entering the car and immediately closed the door. He slowly pulled out his gun again and went to the front of the car. "Huwag ho kayong lalabas ng sasakyan, may titingnan lang ho ako." The driver just nodded and immediately closed the door.

Ara slowly walked to the place where she saw the man. "Who's in there?" She shouted, then gripped the gun tightly and held the trigger.

She gulped when she got closer and became even more alert. She quickly released the trigger when someone suddenly attacked her.

The man was only hit on the arm but he was still able to attack.

She quickly took off her heels and immediately pulled out the dagger and threw it at the man. Pagdating sa dagger ay asintado siya, tumama ito sa hita ng lalaki na pinuntirya niya talaga upang mahirapan itong makagalaw.

When the man lost his balance she quickly ran closer and kicked him hard where the dagger hit. "Ahh!!" The man screamed out in pain.

She pulled the dagger from his thigh and pointed it at his neck. "Sino ka at anong pakay mo!?" She asked the man emphatically while snarling in anger.

"I'm the butler of the man you shot earlier!!" The man answered and glared at her.

"Your boss has too many sins, he just deserves it!!. Child trafficking is at its peak. He never feels sorry for the children!! What a shame!" She uttered out loudly.

"You are no different from him. What a shame !! " The man exclaimed and laughed mischievously.

"I just choose what I know is worth not living, not like him! He's enslaving children!" Ara said with irritation. The man she shot earlier was a syndicate, child trafficker, and drug lord. That's why she didn't hesitate to teach him a lesson.

"I will give you a chance to live to deliver my message to the grave of your master. Tell him I'm happy he'll burn in hell" She murmured, then removed the dagger and pointed at his neck, "This is your chance to change your life, so think about it before it's too late", she added.

Ara let him go and confiscated his weapon, then returned to where the limousine was parked. She came across the old man who was waiting. The driver's eyes widened when he saw her appearance, as well as the weapon she was carrying that came from the man she had fought earlier. She smiled awkwardly and then opened the door of the limousine. "Tara na po!" she said. The driver immediately started the engine and drove the limousine.

She sighed as she looked at Zandro who was still unconscious while lying on the floor of the car. "Your illness is really on time!" she said flatly, then opened the front window to talk to the driver. "Can you keep it a secret?- Also for your safety Sir" she said.

"Masusunod po Mam" the driver answered with no doubt, which surprised her.

"T-talaga po?" She stuttered.

The driver nodded and smiled "Opo, hindi na ho bago sa akin ito. Palagi din ginagawa ng congressman iyan noong ang kaniyang ama pa ang Archon."

She was stunned at what the driver said and scratched her head "Ibig sabihin po may alam kayo?" tanong niya.

The driver nodded again "Matagal na po akong nagtratrabaho sa pamilyang Miller kaya ng mainvolve ako sa sikreto nila ay hindi ako nakalabas pang muli, sagrado kase ang organisasyon at hindi maaring ipaalam sa iba kaya nagdesisyon ang mga Miller na gawin akong miyembro ngunit ang trabaho ko lang ng naman ay driver, ginawa lamang iyong panakip upang manatili akong buhay." Sabi ng driver at bahagyang sumulyap sa front mirror "Nagulat lang po ako kanina dahil napakaganda niyong babae ngunit humahawak ng baril."

"Ahh, Ganon po ba?." She said she became curious about the first Archon, so she couldn't help but ask a few questions. "Why did Zandro enter Congress po?."

"Ah!, Yang batang yan ay mahilig tumulong sa kapwa. Politiko na siya noong hindi pa naipasa sa kaniya ang posisyon niya bilang unang Archon. Tawag ko pa sa kaniya noon ay batang congressman" medyo napapangiti pa ang matanda sa mga naalala na mga alalang lumipas na. "Huling termino na niya ngayon at baba na siya sa Congreso. Napilitan lang naman siya na maging Archon dahil walang ibang pagpapasahan ng posisyon kaya sigurado ako na hindi na siya babalik sa pag popolitiko" dagdag pa nito at malungkot na bumuntong hininga.

"Ganon ho ba" aniya pagkatapos ay sumulyap sa unang Archon "Sa tingin niyo po ba kayang makapanakit ng unang Archon ng inosenteng tao?" dagdag niyang tanong.

"Ay nako Hija, kahit pa anong gawin mo sa kaniya, hindi gumaganti ang batang iyan maliban na lang kung mahalaga sa kaniya ang naapektuhan. Kaya malabo na manakit ng inosenteng tao iyang si Zandro" anito.

"Ahh, ganon po ba... Ano nga po palang pangalan ninyo? Bakit ngayon ko lang po ata kayo nakita?" she asked.

"Damiel po, nasa mansyon lang po ako palagi hindi niyo lang po ako napapansin" sagot nito.

"Sige po Mang Damiel, Salamat po," she said, then closed the front window. She looked at Zandro and took a deep breath "Sana nga... sana nga hindi ikaw ang taong hinahanap ko- because if that were you, your heart would be broken because of me."
