Chapter Two

Brittany was in the front seat of the unknown guy's car; he had insisted she follow him.

"So what deal were you talking about?" Brittany urged.

“I know you're poor and you're short of cash right now because the club barely pays you any reasonable amount of money," he spoke. "You don't have to tell me my life history; go straight to the point," Brittany scoffed. "I have a job offer that's worth over 2 million dollars," he continued.

Brittany almost had a heart attack. "2 million dollars?!!" She screamed, thankfully the car was soundproof, otherwise, the whole world might have heard her. It was a miracle his eardrums were still working. " Yes," he sniggered.

"Wait, who are you? What's your name?" Brittany frantically probed. The guy exhaled heavily. "My name is Klaus Salvador,"

“Okay, what's the job about?" Brittany interrupted

“I'm going to text you the picture of a guy. He'll be coming to the club tomorrow. I did my research, and I'm sure he'll pay millions to have you privately. You're to seduce him. Don’t eat or drink anything while doing the job," Klaus explained.

"Alright, easy peasy, so to be clear, this doesn't have anything to do with murder, right?" She inquisitively asked. “I’d rather suffer in hell than murder someone for money.”

Klaus expressed no emotions as he warded her off, “No, now get down,"

"Wait, when am I getting my money?" Brittany asked. He flung a card at her before driving off "Here's my fucking number. Just send me your account number,". Brittany nodded twice and happily went home.

When she arrived at her house, she saw Ariel arguing with the money lenders."Fuck off already. You can't just change the date of the payment," Ariel yelled same time casting a scornful glance.

There were about three men there."Ariel, that's enough," Brittany immediately interfered. "There you are," the man from the previous day gave a mischievous smile. "I hope you have my money; you better have it or things won't be funny,"

“How dare you!" Ariel fumed. Brittany quickly walked up to Ariel and held her arm."It's fine," Brittany mouthed quietly. “I'll send you your money," Brittany replied fiercely.

She has already gotten the credit alert from Klaus, so she's like a mini-millionaire right now."Send it now!" One of the men yelled. Brittany quickly transferred their money, and they left. At least half of the issue had disappeared."Can you believe those jerks?" Ariel scoffed. "But then again, how were you able to raise the money so quickly?" Ariel quizzed.

Brittany giggled. "I was just lucky; I'll tell you everything inside,"

Reign's Mansion

Charleston Reign, the eldest son in the Reign family, was comfortably lying on the couch. It has been a hectic day at work, and right now he just wants some rest. Zach Reign, his younger brother, barged into the living room."Why are you here?" Charleston snorted; he kept changing the channels on the TV with the remote."Am I not allowed here anymore?" Zach sent a withering look.

"Whatever," Charleston jeered. "It's not like you remembered you had a brother."

“Work has been hectic," Zach replied. He sat down on the couch and placed his long legs on the table."Let's hang out tomorrow," Charleston suggested.

"Nah… I have a very important meeting tomorrow," Zach responded while using his phone."Fine, then, you might end up regretting why you chose to ignore me," Charleston replied, leaving him there.

"Regret my ass," Zach snorted.

Charleston went to his luxurious room and sat on the king-sized bed. He had planned for Zach to follow him to Dynasty X tomorrow and to think he had even gone as far as to book him a private meeting with Masked Vixen; now he would just have to go alone. He sighed and poured some wine for himself.

Next day... Dynasty X

Brittany paced in her changing room. She had just finished her performance on stage, and now she was waiting for orders from Klaus. He had sent her a picture of the guy she was supposed to meet. Even though she knew it was too late to be nervous and hesitate, she still did so because she was scared.

A message from Klaus popped up on her phone screen. “He's currently in room 35; get the job done; no mistakes," the text read, and Brittany audibly gulped in apprehension.

Mr. Bricks barged into her changing room." Brittany I'm so glad you finally decided to use those brains of yours," he grinned. "Ensure you satisfy him, and I'll give you a raise,"

Brittany had a shaky breath. She stared at her masked face for some time before leaving the room. She headed for room 35 and knocked on the door. At first sight, a handsome guy was sitting on the expensive couch, and his face lit up when he saw her.

Charleston, who had been feeling livid a while ago, was now more than glad that Zach denied his offer. Masked Vixen was even more sexy up close than when she was on stage. She seductively tiptoed to where he sat like a boss.

"May we begin?" She sultry posed a question. "Sure," he gave a playful smirk. The soft music started playing, and she whined her waist slowly to the beat, making his eyes almost pop.

This was the first time Brittany danced for just one person, so she was tense. She continued whining her waist slowly while she did insane body movements. She twerked in front of him, and he couldn't resist holding her large ass. She was supposed to stop as soon as he touched her because that was the rule, but she couldn't unless she wanted Klaus to kill her. She continued dancing for him even though she hated it, but she was glad that her mask hid her face; otherwise, he would have seen her cry.

Before he left, the server came in and served him drinks.

Klaus had instructed her to ensure he drinks and is well entertained, so she has to do just that. When she saw he did not attempt to drink, she sat on his lap seductively, and he didn't dare push her off. She picked up the glass of wine and gave it to him, and he drank it. Afterward, she rocked him madly, and she was sure he became hard instantly. He was about to touch her again when she quickly got up from his leg.

"Your time is up, sir," she licked his ears while she softly spoke.

“I'll pay you more," Charleston helplessly begged.

"No, thank you," she said and quickly left the room.

Brittany went straight to her changing room and quickly changed her clothes before going home. Her heart pounded heavily as soon as she got home. She picked up her phone to text Klaus.'The job is done' she texted, and he replied with a thumbs-up emoji. Brittany dropped her phone, and she freshened up before retiring to bed.

Reigns Mansion

It was already midnight but Charleston wasn't back yet. Zach was up all night waiting for him."Why didn't I just go with him? he mumbled.

His investors from Germany failed to show up, leading to the cancellation of his meeting, and came back home hoping to meet Charleston, but he was nowhere to be found.

His phone rang, and 'Stupid Idiot' was on the caller ID."Zayn I don't have time for you right now," Zach said after picking up. "Come to Godzilla's hospital right now; it's Charleston," Zayn hurriedly spoke before he hung up.

Zach's eyes widened insanely. He rushed out of the house and quickly entered his G-Wagon, speeding fast out of the mansion. It took him only 15 minutes to reach the hospital, and he met Zayn standing outside. "What happened to Charleston?" Zach asked impatiently.

Zayn led him to Charleston's ward, where he could see numerous nurses rushing in and out of the ward."Charleston was poisoned. I found him in front of Dynasty X lying unconscious on the floor, so I brought him here; he was extremely pale," Zayn explained.

"How did he get poisoned?" Zach was furious and demanded answers. "We don't know for now; let's just hope he survives this."

Zach and Zayn waited patiently for the doctor to come out of Charleston's ward. Two hours had passed, but he was still in. After 30 more minutes, he finally came out.

"Zach Reign, we are sorry, but Charleston is dead," the doctor expressed with sadness and fear.

Charleston was confirmed dead an hour ago, but he was too scared to face Zach Reign. He knew how dangerous Zach was, and didn't want to lose his life." what?!" Zach bellowed and swiftly brought out the revolver from his jacket and shot the air five times. Just when he was about to point the gun toward the doctor, "Zach!" Zayn quickly held his hands. "Get out of here now!" Zayn hollered.

The doctor and the nurses wasted no time bolting away from there. Zach fell to his knees weakly, and for the first time in 10 years, tears came out of his eyes. He had lost his parents when he was just 15, and when Charleston was just 18, his world literally revolved around Charleston, and now Charleston is dead.

Zayn could only stare at Zach helplessly; he could only imagine the amount of pain Zach must be in. He had just lost all his family, except for his grandfather, Godzilla. Zayn quickly picked up his phone and called Godzilla.

Next day…

News about the Charleston death had spread throughout L. A and it was a big shock to everyone. Brittany was also speechless to the core when she heard the news. The glass cup she was sipping her celebratory wine from fell and shattered into pieces. She changed her clothes and went straight to Ariel's apartment. She barged in without knocking; Ariel was busy doing her exercises."The latest millionaire is finally here," she said happily. "He died," Brittany froze; she looked guilty and miserable."Who died?" Ariel lifted her face in confusion.

"The man who Klaus told me to seduce died just yesterday. Ariel, am I a murderer now?" Brittany started crying.

"Of course not." Ariel quickly went to hug her. "He died because of me," Brittany sobbed."That's not true," Ariel patted her gently. "Then why do I feel so guilty?" Brittany cried more. "I need to leave the country. They may track me down if I stay here."

"Brittany, is that really necessary?" Ariel asked.

"Yes, please help me, Ariel."

"Okay, alright,"

Ariel accompanied Brittany to buy the ticket, and thanks to the money Klaus gave her, she did everything with ease. She accompanied her to the airport, where she would board a plane to Italy.

When it was time for Brittany to go, Ariel hugged her tightly. Both girls were crying already; Ariel broke the hug and wiped her tears."You should go now," Ariel said with a sad smile. Brittany nodded and hugged her one last time before she finally left.

Reign Mansion

Hell broke loose already. Zach had personally shot all of Charleston's guards already for being incompetent. He reeks of pure anger and danger. Zach was sitting on the couch with a stick of tobacco in his mouth. He was smoking like the devil. All the maids and servants in the Reign mansion had fled for their dear lives."The bodies of the 50 guards you killed have been disposed of; it will take some damn hard work to cover the fucking traces, Zach," Zayn said.

"You're emphasizing the 'fifty' like it's some big number," Zach scoffed. "I'm barely satisfied yet; I want to kill more people," Zach spoke stoically. Zayn could sense how angry he was; any sensible person would run far away from him."Godzilla is on his way here," Zayn said.

The frown on Zach's face deepened. He got up from the couch and walked up to Zayn." Who on earth told the old man about this?" he asked with obvious fury. "I did," Zayn said without batting an eye. Zach cocked his gun and pointed it at Zayn's forehead.

Zayn chuckled. "Do it then," he threatened, looking Zach directly in the eye. Zach derided and lowered his gun before tossing it into the chair. "Instead of killing innocent people, we should find out what happened to Charleston; the autopsy results will be out soon, so we can start from there," Zayn voiced.

Zayn was anything but a coward that was probably why they had been friends for so long. "Do whatever," Zach replied dismissively as he grabbed his jacket and went up the stairs. Zayn exhaled in annoyance and ran his hands through his hair."What does Dynasty X have to do with Charleston's death?" Zayn muttered.
