Fallen Chronicles

2 more chapter after 1h

During negotiations between a wolf pack and a pack of hyenas, a fluffy little white lamb suddenly strolls in.

That's what it felt like right now in the Sea Sand Bar, for everyone—whether they were part of the gang or just regular bar-goers.

Brian froze.

The man in the black suit, "Grey Wolf," who had just become the new boss of this neighborhood after some internal Callewa gang drama, also froze.

After a short pause, Brian's man—who'd been flirting with Eileen—that speaks up:

"Hey, isn't that the rich girl from before?"

"Damn, why is she still here?"

"Is she drunk or something? Of all the times to come out!"

"This idiot! She's trapped now!"

Their comments snapped Brian back to reality.

He internally cursed this "rich girl" who was clueless about reading the mood, as he quickly stepped forward to shield Eileen from view with his large body.

"Go out!" Brian growled softly to Eileen, who was now standing in his shadow.

He was okay with his guys flirting with pretty girls in the bar—that was an unspoken rule. But as the owner, he also had to make sure everyone was safe. He'd kicked out people before for getting too handsy after a few drinks.

His reputation wasn't the only reason the Sea Sand Bar was popular.

This time, however, several of Brian's smarter henchmen quickly understood what he was trying to do. They started moving toward Eileen, intending to get her out of there as quickly as possible.

But then—

Bang!*

A gunshot rang out, stopping everyone in the Sea Sand Bar.

Grey Wolf holstered his smoking gun, his eyes fixed intently on Brian—or more accurately, on the beautiful lady he was shielding.

"Move," he said.

Brian didn't budge. "We've already given you the four boxes of protection money. You should leave now."

"Do you not understand me? Move!" Grey Wolf shouted, losing his patience.

"I've changed my mind. The protection money from Sea Sand Bar isn't enough. I want the woman behind you as well!"

Grey Wolf said, not bothering to hide his intentions. To be honest, he was absolutely smitten by the "little lamb" that just walked in.

As a mid-level boss in Callewa, Grey Wolf had his fair share of beautiful women. But compared to the girl who just showed up, he felt like all his previous flings were second-rate.

Sure, her high-class outfit helped.

But it wasn't just about clothes, which Grey Wolf could easily afford. It was her flawless skin, her expressive eyes, and her overall aura that caught his attention.

"Alright, old man, move out of the way. I agree with that guy; you're blocking the way" said an impatient voice behind Brian.

And that voice, that tone, and that familiar nickname—only one person in the Sea Sand Bar would call Brian that.

Brian turned around, shocked.

The bar owner's eyes widened.

"Hmph, we'll settle this later!"

Eileen shot an annoyed glare at the dazed man in front of her. She then sidestepped Brian and walked up to the man in black.

"Hey, I heard you want to take me with you?" Eileen said, not mincing words.

Hearing Eileen's blunt language, Grey Wolf's men started to get agitated, but Grey Wolf raised his hand to stop them.

Let's face it, a pretty face can make a man more tolerant.

"I just think someone as beautiful and classy as you shouldn't be in a dump like this, don't you agree?" Grey Wolf said, thinking he was being quite the gentleman.

He wasn't just some fool blinded by lust. From Eileen's appearance and her fearless attitude, Grey Wolf was even more convinced that she must have some sort of powerful background.

"So, I'm Hamoud Mullen, currently running the Callewa operation in this neighborhood. I also happen to be the youngest boss on record. May I have the pleasure of knowing your name?" Grey Wolf said, feeling a bit more patient and even introducing himself.

"You want to know who I am? Come closer," Eileen beckoned him with her finger.

Maybe because she didn't seem threatening, dressed as she was, Grey Wolf actually stepped closer.

As he leaned in to hear her reply, what he got was:

"I'm your worst nightmare!"

Following her angry words was her fist, clenched tight.

Eileen didn't hold back. Just like Renji had advised, she threw a punch straight at his face with all her might.

Bang!*

The room full of Callewa gang members watched in shock as their boss, who was just a moment ago cozying up to this 'rich girl', was now flying through the air, landing at least twenty feet away. He crashed into the bar, sending bottles and furniture flying, and went completely still.

This all happened in a split second, catching everyone off guard.

But not Eileen.

Right after landing her punch, she didn't stop. She took advantage of the confusion to charge at the still-dazed Callewa gang members.

Her high heels weren't Renji's idea; she'd picked them out herself at a store. Most people would have trouble walking in them, let alone fighting. But for Eileen, who was now an Eclipse, the sharp heels were like tiny blades.

In a quick move, she slashed the throat of a gang member in front of her. He clutched his bleeding neck with wide eyes, falling to the ground, both shocked and unwilling to believe what just happened.
