LEILANI. 

I&#x27;m an orphan who was picked up by the roadside and left on the gate of a convent when I was a baby.

I was raised by Reverend sisters and I spent all twenty three years of my life in the convent.

I went to school there and did everything in the big convent, I&#x27;ve never been on my own until six months ago.

When I told the sisters that I want to go out on my own, Sister Bernadette was scared because I&#x27;ve never been on my own before.

Six months later, I&#x27;m doing fine. In a small quiet town, everything is great. The people are good.

All was going really well.....until the day he showed up. 

The scariest man I&#x27;ve ever seen. And the way he looks at me? It&#x27;s a look I don&#x27;t understand but it never fails to send shivers down my spine.

Who is he?

What does he want from me?

ZERO

HE IS DARKNESS.... 

I am the bad guy of this story. Every story has a villain, and I am that villain.

You can call me, Number Zero. Or Zero, for short. Frankly, I don&#x27;t care.

I am a born killer and I&#x27;m called The Killer Machine in the dark world, the part of the world do-gooders don&#x27;t see.

Think of every name you would call a professional killer, and give me that name, because you wouldn&#x27;t be wrong.

I would like to tell you that I try to do good, to do the right thing but that would be a lie. I don&#x27;t see any need why I have to lie here.

I am a very bad man, don&#x27;t go searching for good because it&#x27;s not there. 

I have so much darkness in me that if you stay in my mind for a long time, you go dark too.

Don&#x27;t mistake this for a confession because it is not. I&#x27;m not seeking for forgiveness and if you give it, I won&#x27;t accept it. I&#x27;m not seeking for redemption here. My sins are my own.

The first day I saw her, I just knew something.

My new fascination. My first fascination in all my thirty three years of life.

I must have her.
I must make her mine.

Sex With Mr Dangerous

When I hit him with the meat tenderizer hammer, his eyes darkened in rage.

My fear multiplied because it looked like he wouldn't be knocked out, but as he knee-crawled towards me and I took steps back, suddenly, he fainted.

He fell back on the bed and lost consciousness. Blood started pulling from his head.

"Aunt Lani, I'm s-scared." Romeria cried on the bed.

I rushed towards her and lifted her from the bed. I carried on my chest, her arms and legs wrapped tightly around me.

I started out of the room in a run. I was scared that he'll wake and I ran with all my strength. I took the stairs carefully but hurriedly, Romeria shivering in my arms.

When I got to our room, I locked the bedroom door, and laid Ria on the bed. "I'm so sorry, honey. Don't worry, you're alright. It's nothing."

"He's a bad man." She cried, her lips wobbling.
