Chapter 135 - The Dirty Secret & The Lady With The Revolver

Meanwhile in the elevator which was ascending up to the fourth floor, a lady was grinning while every other woman was immersed into talking about the strategy yo pull on Syna. 

Adriana had seen Caitlyn looking for something and could predict what was her intentions, when she saw her holding the handbag. Adriana was a sharp witted lady and was involved in providing the information to Braille Matteo Leste, although the vampire princess was her master but Adriana was never loyal to her and certainly the obsessive woman was not going to let Braille have her way with Sinclair MacLaverty.

Adriana had always been thinking about ways to get rid of Braille Matteo, who accidentally came to know about her secret, this blackmailing her and eventually Adriana ended up being trapped into her claws and had to agree upon the spying task, given by Braille. 

[ During the month of November ]

The lady was walking down the street, she was cautiously of her surroundings because of the dark yet she was still able to see through the blanket of darkness and fog that was covering the whole city and its dwellers in the street like a plaque. 

There seemed to be no end to the crowds, even the alleyways were full to bursting with the vendors and hagglers, men thrusting their lips onto other younger boys and men, smooching their lips and enjoying what they could not attempt in the daylight of respect and reputation. 

Cooks dropped fish heads into woks of hissing oil, to serve the customers of that peculiar street that had many night clubs and bars to serve every kind of person, it welcomed bisexuals, homosexual groups and other straight persons, providing them services.

The notorious street was known to invite every kind of person but no one would have imagined that a supernatural being would crawl into those open arms, the young lady was still walking in that black fur coat to give her the shield against the cold air, which was piercing the clothes and seeping into the bones making them freeze. 

The alley narrowed to a rutted lane, sewage and drain pipes fed directly on to the muddy surface, after all that is how the street was perfect to run such a forbidden business and a place for people to hide. It had became a bustling hiding spot of gangsters belonging to different cults from the police, most of the people present in the lane had nothing to spare, but of course the lady with black hair and fair complexion, wearing the fur coat was an exception among the average looking thugs and sex addicts.

She stood out due to her excellent appearance and sharply eye catching facial features, as the lady continued to strode down the long lane which was getting narrow, the flickering reddish lights were barely adding some light onto the street, only the boards which were lit by the lightning wires and bulbs were fully visible in the darkness and the blanket of fog.

The young lady was still able to see everything and was well aware of her surroundings and pathway, she was walking on yet she had a stern expression worn on her face that no man dared to step outside to block her way and ask her out or perhaps for a make out. Although, she seemed a normal human as per talking about her appearance but still something was wrong precisely different and unusual that did not let anyone to mess with her.

Adriana strode out of the door, staggering on the staircase which had only four steps, to enter the bar. She was wearing a party dress which was quite see through, the lady was reeking of alcohol and perhaps calculating by her disheveled state and unkempt hair anyone could have concluded that the lady had a very much vigorous ride in bed.

"Fuck that beast! Arrgh! I can barely walk...fuck you!"

Adriana yelled to herself groaning and half yelling, she supported herself with the wall before descending the staircase.

Her one hand rubbed off the taste from her lips which were earlier decorated with a sexy maroon shaded lipstick but now only had some hint of that color, she held her head which was spinning badly due to heavy alcohol and the amount she had gulped that day.

"I had a hunch that something was fishy about you, Adriana."

The lady who had walked down the lane all over just on the basis of her intuition caught her prey red handed, was it just a hunch or it was all planned? Spied and caught? 

"M-miss Braille?"

The voice pricked her ears and almost felt like a thunder to her hearing sight, Adriana immediately lifted her face up to see Braille Matteo Leste, standing in front of her with arms crossed.

At first she thought that it might be her illusion or hallucination that she was hearing Braille's voice but after blinking twice or thrice, her mind regained senses at once. Adriana's voice broke in between the utterance, while the young lady gulped upon the very sight of the beautiful goddess.

It seemed as the peak effect of the alcohol had evaporated and worn off, her worst nightmare was standing in front of her in the form of Braille Matteo Leste, the lover of Sinclair MacLaverty, of course her obsession was one sided.

Adriana could foresee her damnation and termination from the conglomerate, as the first condition to apply in the vast empire of Sinclair MacLaverty was to be free of any charge which could smear the reputation of the company. 

Being a sensible person Adriana, was never involved in such scandal until she met a man who almost ruined her life, making the young lady addictive to alcohol and sex. Braille Matteo, being a vampire, on the top of it having ancestral blood running in her veins was blessed with sharp senses, had sensed some unpleasant hints from Adriana.

The runaway vampire princess followed the clues and trailed down Adriana, reaching in that narrow alleyway which provided services cheaper than other famous clubs, moreover the sole reason she preferred to be getting laid here was to keep her working identity low profile as not to smear the name of her boss.

"Arrghh! Haha...I'm hallucinating, I know I am. Fuck you, Adriana for drinking that much!"

Adriana cursed herself while laughing like a mad woman, as she shook her head and covered her eyes with one hand, not believing what she just saw. After all why would someone with mighty attitude like Braille Matteo would visit this street?

Adriana descended the staircase staggering with wobbly legs, she was barely managing herself  as not to fall in those blood red six inches heels and bump her head onto the road. When she finally had stepped into the road and was about to turn around to take her leave, Braille finally spoke again.

"If you will chose to leave just like that, you might feel some fatal pain in between your shoulder blade, dear Adriana, because I am not merciful!"

Braille's voice again resonated in her ears, her sentences held a clear warning and the order to stop.

Adriana immediately halted and slowly turned around with an utter shock on her face, her eyes became stitched with Braille's and the guilty of charge lady could not found anything else except a pair of black shiny orbs darted onto her silhouette, not a single trace of mercy was visible in Braille's eyes.

"M-miss Braille? I-it is actually you."

Adriana was unable to form any words, she felt as if her tongue was glued in between the cage of her jaws, she could not comprehend any single reason for which Braille came all the way here to meet her and why the hell she was standing right in front of her with a gun pointed towards Adriana! 

"Yes, me. Why? You didn't expect me to be here? Or perhaps you didn't imagine to get caught one day?"

Braille mocked, at her appearance while the princess's eyes slid across her unkempt and scurvy dress which was hugging Adriana's curves. 

The thing which amused Braille was the courageous attitude of Adriana, that she still managed to spit out a few words to her even though Braille was standing there with a gun pointing towards her throat. That was all Braille Matteo needed, a slave that could spy on Sinclair MacLaverty on her behalf and at that moment Adriana seemed to be fitting onto those standards.

Moreover, having a beautiful face and the talent, what Adriana had in addition was a 'dirty secret', which was caught by Braille and was good enough to keep the lady in her position.

"I...no, actually...I…"

Adriana didn't know how to react or what to say, yet she dared to speak which impressed Braille and she lowered her hand which had gun in it.

"Let me get straight to the point, Adriana. I will keep this privacy of yours, a secret…"

Braille paused in between as to make sure that she had gotten Adriana on her side, by being generous enough to keep her secret...a secret! Adriana widened her eyes upon the unusual reply from the cold hearted Braille Matteo, who was known to have a stone in the place of heart but of course that was not the case for Sinclair MacLaverty. 

"...but I need something in exchange!"

Braille moved her two fingers onto the revolver carelessly as if she wanted to impression on Adriana, that if she chose to refuse her offer, the poor soul would not get to see tomorrow's sunrise! 

"I agree, whatever you say, I will agree to that."

Adriana immediately spoke in agreement without even realising the circumstances she would fall into, but wasn't that the right thing, I mean the circumstances of refusing were even worse.

She leaped forward a little as not to step any closer to Braille, who was still holding the revolver. Adriana gulped her fears, as the agreement was the only thing which could save her from falling into the pit of darkness which almost seemed prevalent in her life. Moreover, she could not afford to lose such a job which was providing her enough money, to meet the both ends easily easily.
