The Billionaire's Kept Woman

  The time that Violet entered his house was a little mess. However, seeing him clutching the blanket while hugging the purple teddy bear, convulsing. She quickly approached him and reached his forehead. He's burning up. She gently lay him flat down and pushed the duvet. She gently pulled her arms to relax and he stopped and went back to sleep. She sat beside him and stared at the teddy bear. 

"Where did he get this?" She mumbled. She reached it and placed it beside him. She suddenly noticed his phone blinking and she reached it as they said that he had to visit the facility. Her heartfelt hurt as she looked at him. They might experiment with him again. She put it away and lay beside him and hugged him. Violet doesn't want him to leave. 

  Inside Victor's head, he was dreaming of little Hannah who was reading him a Japanese Manga. He was happy that she liked it and somehow, her mind was more advanced and she could easily pick things up. He was sad that she can't go out to play with other normal kids. Their parents were afraid that something bad might happen. Victor hugged his baby sister from behind and kissed her small cheeks. 

"I promise you. I'll take you to an amusement park and buy you lots of teddy bears." 

"Really?" her eyes widened and twinkled, however, she started tearing. "But daddy and mommy wouldn't want it." 

"Don't worry." He patted her head. "You have me and when I am old enough, I will bring you there." 

"Promise?" She pouted. 

"I promise." He smiled. "Don't be a cry baby, okay? Big bro loves you, so, so much." He kissed her forehead. 

  He opened his eyes and felt his whole body wet and a little sticky. 

"Hannah," he mumbled and looked up at the woman over him. He creased his brows when he recognized her. "Violet?" 

"Yes, love." She put a towel over his forehead. "Your agency said that you have to report." 

  Victor sat up and reached for his phone. 

"I can't say no to that." He mumbled. 

"You were dreaming of Hannah?" She asked. 

"Yes," 

  Violet gave him a glass of water and he gulped it and put it on the side table. 

"So, what is it?" 

"I promised her to bring her to the amusement park and buy her lots of teddy bears. However, I failed her. Our parents wouldn't let her play with any other child and she's home school." 

"Why?" Violet reached his arm and rubbed it. 

"She's dangerous… She tends to be dangerous. That's why she has to hide from everyone." 

"Dangerous?" Violet creased her brows. 

"Yes," he reached her face and gently caressed his thumb across her lips. "She's a killing machine that my parents made." 

"W-What?" Violet's eyes dilated from the shock.

"The time that we were abducted… you were abducted, they planned to make us into a killing machine. The formulation that was made is called Despair. That's the one that they used and upgraded it to control me." 

  Violet gaped. 

"Your parents did that?" 

"Yes," His eyes looked in pain. "They did that to my little sister. She's a perfect one. That's why she's dangerous. I want to give her all the love that she must receive, so she won't be a monster." He chuckled sarcastically. "But it turned out that I became one and nearly killed my beloved friends." 

"Harvey mentioned that we can't search for her further. She's dead. We also found her tomb beside your parent's grave." 

  He shook his head. 

"She's not dead." He scooped her face. "Believe me." 

"We already sent out the DNA from her tomb." 

"Violet, she's not dead." He insisted. 

"And if she was?" Violet hates to see the hurtful look in his eyes. 

"Then, I'll find her killer." His eyes completely turned into something—sick. She moved closer to him and hugged him. "She can't be dead." He mumbled to her. "What about the people who adopted her?" 

  Violet stopped and gently pulled out. 

"They are dead and that's where Hannah was gone." 

"I swear," Victor shook his head. "She's not dead." 

"The DNA will come out in a few days." She caressed his face. "I'll help you in every way… I'll help you when I can." 

"Even if I become a monster again?" He scooped her face and pulled it gently. 

"I'll help you avoid despair…" She gently caressed his naked chest. "You are their killing machine, but I'll have you back to me." 

"They have a tracker," he pointed to his arm. "I'll just cut it and be with you." 

  She shook her head. 

"Let's wait, Victor." She stood and took off her clothes. "I already prepared the bathtub." She extended her hand. Victor always felt mesmerized by her, so he followed her.

  Johanna received a message from Keira that Connor will work in the Golden Age. She's currently in the cafe near the apartment where Holly and Oliver live. She felt the urge of beating them up when she learned how they play on Keira. Their mother couldn't get to face Holly anymore or she might have slapped the bitch and hurt it.  Their mother's heart is still a little weak, Johanna won't let her get stressed out over such a thing. She held a big grudge when it came to hurting her family. 

"So," A familiar young boy sat in front of her. "Are you Jo?" 

"Yes," Johanna said formally as she gracefully reached her milk tea and sipped on it. 

"I'm Viper," 

"Like the snake?" She tilted her head, confused about the name. 

"Yup." He grinned and a big bulky man came with refreshments and cake as he sat with them. 

"We are here to help Big Boss with the furniture, however, he won't let us purchase them." He extended his tablet. "Here are the furniture that he needed for their home sweet home." 

  She reached it and started swiping on it. 

"Not bad." 

"By the way, aren't you supposed to be alone?" The big guy asked as he made himself bow a little or try to hide from everyone. He's a shy type. 

"Yeah," Johanna glanced at Holly who was holding grocery bags while Oliver held the heavy ones and followed her. 

"Who is that?" Viper asked. 

"That's my subject." She answered casually. 

"Why are you spying on them?" The Big Guy asked. 

"What's your name?" Johanna looked at the big guy as he bowed his head. 

"I'm Bull." 

"Right," She took out her phone and browsed on her own. "Don't worry, boys. I'll take care of their home sweet home. Since he's my brother and he trusts me more than the two of you." 

"You are savage, Miss Jo." Viper said dramatically and reached his chest. "But can we go shopping with you?" 

  Johanna looked at him as she noticed that he looked like a pup. Well, with those expressions and all, he's acting more like a child than an adult. 

"Sure. Let's finish the food." 

  Johanna noticed that the two are acting very much normal and abnormal at the same time. The bull was a gentleman type while Viper acts like a child and wants to cling to her. And now, they are following her like a bodyguard and friends at the same time. When they reached the Home Depot, she chose the furniture to whatever MJ would like and according to her taste, she wanted something vintage or royal-like. 

"So, how about the red room?" Viper asked. "Like from Fifty Shades of Grey with kinky stuff?" 

  Johanna rose her brows and flicked his forehead. 

"No, we can't buy such a thing, you dumb ass!" 

"Ow," Viper pouted. She sighed and looked around. She remembered how their old house looked and she thinks that Harvey wanted almost the exact set-up. It's been years and Harvey might miss home where their mother and their father were… with Keira and their pets. 

  She started choosing lots of things for them as three people attended them and a few more came to help since she's buying a lot of it. Harvey just gave her the card that Keira gave to buy a few things. She looked around and thought for a long time. The couple needs cleaning materials and Harvey doesn't know any of them. 

"Let's find a multi-tasking vacuum cleaner." She snapped

"Is there such a thing?" Viper asked and followed her. 

"Yeah, it can clean windows, walls, ceilings, and tiles." 

"Woah! I should have one!" 

  Bull followed like a servant and he even had a mini fan to focus it on her so she won't get sweaty and irritated. At the moment, two top assassins become her instant slaves. 

"Buy me lemonade." She told Viper as Viper saluted and rushed to the stall while she entered the vacuum store. She asked the sales lady about it as she sat down and offered her a lot of vacuum. Bull sat behind her holding a fan close to her face.

  They even offered her a lot of it. She chose a few of them and paid with a debit card. Viper came with lemonades as they waited for the process and sipped on the cold refreshing lemonades. 

"And what does that one do?" Johanna asked. "I want it to be tested right away." 

"She acted like a boss." Viper mumbled to Bull as Bull nodded. 

  Johanna stood and checked a few things and nodded at it. After she paid for all of it. The staff carefully put it on the trolley as Bull and Viper push the carts.
