CH 19 ~ Compete

Alex stared at the short man in front of him, whose height resembled Rennie.

Even the way 'Prince' speaks felt familiar.

"Hey?! Why are you just standing still and staring, without speaking a thing?!"

Rennie spoke as she waved her hands in front of the leader of Dark Knight, who was staring at her in a daze.

"Have we met before?"

Dark unintentionally asked out and Prince looked at him with a dumbfounded look.

'This man feels familiar, like a certain someone, but he can't be the leader of the night;'

"...Looks like the leader of the dark night is really fond of guys, Exactly like the rumors..."

"..."

'The way he speaks is familiar... Am I missing Rennie too much?'

"But I like being on the top instead, how about you sacrifice a little and be the bottom instead?"

"..."

'I am obviously imagining things! How could I think of this indecent man as my Rennie?!'

"Ah? Did I make the leader of the dark night upset? What should I do then- how about I give you 'The Duke'? He loves being at the bottom!"

Rennie spoke as she pats on Justin's shoulder, whose nickname in Dead Rose is 'Duke'.

Justin looked at Rennie with a horrified expression as his heart almost jumped out of his heart.

'WHAT THE! Boss, You are too heartless!!'

'Even if am so handsome that even the gods hate me, you shouldn't make me a scapegoat!!'

Justin swallowed his saliva as he looked at Rennie with pleading eyes.

'Big sister, Can you just let me off this time?!'

But Rennie glared at him furiously as she signaled him to hurry up.

'Enough of your nonsense! Start quickly!'

'...'

'Alright... Here we go for nothing!!'

"Aiyoo! How can you expose me, boss?! If the leader of the Darknight wants, I can even be his slave for the night... Let alone being a bottom,"

Justin spoke as he winked at the leader of the Darknight and swayed his hips.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The guards surrounding the two intruders were all speechless, including Alex and Neil.

"Ahem! Am sorry to disappoint you two but am straight, not into your type."

"But since Prince is here; I hope to receive a good explanation regarding the munitions before!"

Alex spoke as he decided to throw away the thoughts he had about the prince and Rennie being similar.

'There is no way that my cold-blooded prideful CEO would talk shamelessly like this or disguise as a man in cheap clothes, where she never even wears that expensive branded dress twice.'

"About the munitions, Dead Rose shall be taking responsibility for that. But even so, you shouldn't kidnap my people!"

'The secret army Darknight's leader, Dark lives up to his name. He feels extremely very dangerous compared to the other leaders I have met up to now. Avoiding him from now on would be best.'

Prince thought.

'The leader of Dead Rose, Prince isn't easy to deal with. I hope this person won't become an enemy of us.'

Alex thought as he sensed 'Prince' to be extremely dangerous, even if the prince talked with a sense of humor.

'He was talking like that earlier to make us relax and let our guards down... I need to end this matter quickly.'

"I have a good idea to solve this matter. We'll have a match. If you lose, then supply two times the munitions!"

"And what if you lose, Dark?"

Rennie asked with a smirk as she was eager to hear what would she get after winning.

"If I lose, then I will release you man and forget about the munitions, how about this?"

"No problem, what kind of match are we having?"

Rennie agreed as the deal seemed quite generous to her and she wanted to avoid creating a fuse with the Darknight.

"That factory has two floors, connected by metal wires and plates. Do you see the black door near the stairs on the second floor?"

Her eyes moved toward the direction he had pointed and she nodded.

"The person who bangs the door first will be the winner. Any method to win is acceptable. Bare hands or guns are also allowed."

Dark spoke and Prince pondered for a moment before he accepted the deal by shaking hands.

"Deal!"

"We'll start from here. Even if 'Prince' looks full of drive, I won't give you a chance!"

"We will see, don't be overconfident."

Alex unknowingly smiled as he felt familiar with Prince and both of them got ready for their race before Alex threw a gun towards Prince.

"But to be fair, I would like you to use the same gun as mine!"

Rennie caught the gun swiftly as she observed it deeply.

'This gun, has it been tempered?"

'Temper or not, try it and I will know it!'

In an instant, Rennie pulled the trigger and pointed the gun at Dark; where the dark night guards pointed their guns at her.

"It's okay, put your guns down!"

Alex commanded his men as he looked at Prince with amusement.

"Thank you for your trust, I will do the same to you and use this gun."

Rennie spoke as she withdrew her gun and spun it on her fingers.

"Steyr spp handgun, Diameter of 9 mm, length of gun 282 mm, 1.3 kg, able to store up 30 bullets. Handy but powerful. Not bad..."

"As expected of Prince, You have a good eye."

Alex spoke as he clapped to show his admiration for Prince's knowledge.

"I'm flattered, Let's begin."

"Okay, we will begin as soon as the gun is shot,"

BANG!

Both Dark and Prince ran fast as they proceeded to climb up the metal staircase.

In a short moment, Prince passed Dark in running.

As Rennie has been trained since she was eight.

'Trying to get past me?! Not so easy,'

Alex thought as he caught up to Prince and tried to trip, but unexpectedly Prince dodged the attack.

'Skills aren't too bad, but it's a pity that I don't fall for such tricks.'

Rennie moved backward as she raised her legs to kick Dark in his face, but Dark also managed to dodge it.

He caught her leg and she twirled her body to free her leg as she tried to kick on his stomach with her other leg.

Alex dodged that attack as he released Prince's leg and both of them moved backward.

"Great skills, unlike how womanly 'Prince' looks."

'Because I am a woman, you dumbass!'

"Yours aren't bad too, but am heading first!"

Rennie replied as she suddenly ran fast towards the staircase, without waiting for another moment.

'It's already this late, he must be home already... I need to go home quickly!'

"You'd still have to ask me if I allow that!!!"

Alex spoke as he chased after Rennie to climb up the metal staircase.

He extended his hands to catch Prince and flip him over, but unfortunately, Rennie failed to control her strength as she dodged the attack.

Her body leaned back towards the broken metal railing and Dark watched her fall from the staircase with a satisfied smile.

'Damn You, Dark! Am going to fall!!'

Rennie hung on the second floor as she caught one of the broken railings tightly to not fall.

'Hah, I was lucky...umm, maybe not,'

At first, Rennie felt relieved that she managed to hang on but, then her expression changed as Alex looked down and pointed his gun at her.

"Am sorry 'Prince', But this game ends here!"

.

BANG!
