Chapter 36 Katrina's doppelganger
Lance
I hate to leave my Love but what can I do? My hands are itching for revenge for those who hurt her. I don't want them to breathe even for a second.
We are at the Dragon Snake Gang Hideout.
I fire my guns none stop. I will kill them all! I'm holding two guns in both of my hands.
"Boss, the Queen escape!" Black Hawk said.
Nathalie's Father despite being old. He is quick and witty especially if they are on a mission. That's what I admire the most.
"Bullshit! Follow every lead and check every exit! She can't escape. I will kill her by my own hands!" I shouted in rage.
The sweet and loving Lance was replaced by a dominant and cold Mafia King.
Well, this is the real me. And in a mission, I'am always serious. I respect him as Nathalie's Father but today I'am the Boss.
I continued to walk at the Queen's altar but there was no one in there. Then I heard a small and weak voice calling for help.
"H-help me..." The voice is weak and hoarse.
My ears followed the tiny voice and it stop at the curtain.
It seems normal but the voice came in there. I open the curtain and saw a large cage!
"H-help me." It's a voice of a woman.
When I finally near her. I was shocked by what I saw.
"Katrina? How come that you are here?" I asked confused.
Seeing her bruised and swollen body. She's been caged in here for a long time. But the Katrina that I've known is beautiful and healthy unlike her.
She's weak and malnourished.
"Lance? It's you! Can you please let me out in here?" She asked crying.
"Of course, I will. I have so many questions for you. Let's go!" I help her stand up but she falls.
"Men! Come over here!" I called for help.
I cannot touch her as my hands are only for my Love.
Sounds cheesy but I don't like to touch someone else's body except my love, Nathalie.
"Yes, Boss?" He asked.
"Carry her!" I shouted and they carry her immediately.
Katrina is so thin and looks like dying. But I won't let her die!
I have so many questions in my head right now that needs an answer as soon as possible.
Our mission is successful but somehow failed. I didn't capture the Queen and we only killed the weak ones.
Soon, I will surely make them pay especially that bullshit queen.
She's good at hiding but she cannot hide forever.
I didn't bring Katrina to the hospital but in our hideout.
We also have hospitals and doctors here. How come Katrina become like this?
She's very healthy at the office and now she became a prisoner of the Dragon Snake Gang?
There's something fishy going on and I need to make sure who's the impostor and who's the fake one.
She's been dehydrated for a long time, said the resident Doctor. She needs to eat nutritious foods too as she is also malnourished. It s a miracle that she still survives despite what happened.
I'am waiting for her to wake up so that I can ask or let us say interrogate her. She's been sleeping for a long time and I decided to call my Love Nathalie to check on her.
"Hello, my Love. How are you? Have you eaten?" I asked sweetly.
"Hmmm, yeah. I'm still tired and sleepy. Where are you?" She asked sleepily.
"Just doing some important business Love," I answered.
I can't tell her the truth as of now. What if she will leave me? I will die!
"Okay, you take care in there. I'm so sleepy." And she's out at the other line.
My poor Love falls asleep.
She's traumatized by what happened. And I will surely get my Revenge.
Soon...
Queen of Dragon Snake Gang, be sure to hide well cause I will still find you even if you go to hell!
"Boss, Katrina wakes up." Said, my men.
That's good then.
"Okay, let's go." I follow my man and he brings me to Katrina.
She's awake now and eating. She's very thin! Different from the Katrina that I've known for quite some time.
I pointed the gun at her head. And I saw her hands tremble and she drop the spoon.
"Who are you?" I asked seriously.
We cannot be sure if she is real or not. Looks can be sometimes deceiving.
"L-lance. I-I'm Katrina Bridget Montalban." She stutters while answering me.
I drop my gun and sighed.
"So, who is this Katrina that has been with me for months now?" I asked coldly.
"I don't know! After our engagement party, somebody kidnapped me and bring me to that dungeon! It's like hell in there." She's crying right now.
Since our engagement party? It's been months now. The impostor Katrina is enjoying her life lying in my face.
"And where's your father? Does he know?" I asked furrowing my brows.
"He's not my Dad anymore! He and that impostor Katrina did something to us. I guess all of my relatives died now. They replace them too. They are all impostors. I don't know if my Dad is still alive. Can you help me?" She asked crying.
"Don't worry. I will look for your Dad. I will surely make her pay." I answered gritting my teeth.
"Thank you, Lance. And that impostor Katrina is cruel! I just heard her last day that she like to kill a woman named Nathalie if I remember. She's a killer Lance! Please put her in prison." She begs me.
But even if she will not beg or told me. I will surely punish the impostor. Not just in prison. But I will throw her away at the fire of Hell!
But wait... How come she heard about Nathalie?
"Where did you hear it again? About killing Nathalie?" I curiously asked.
"Oh, to my impostor. Katrina! But her people call her Queen in that terrifying place. She's the Queen of Evil!" Katrina shouted again. Crying silently.
"So, You're saying that the Queen of Dragon Snake Gang is the impostor Katrina?" I'm shocked by this news.
Just what is their motive for infiltrating my territory?
Do they already know that I'am Golden Tiger? Did they have an Alliance on Black Lion?
My head is aching for so many questions that suddenly pop up in my mind.
But, let me solve it one at a time. For now, all I want is the safety of Nathalie and her twins who are coming home for vacation.
The twins are her life. That, I know for sure.
And Andrew? Sorry for him, I will make sure to get what I wanted and that is Nathalie!
"Dragon Snake Gang, What is that? But I always heard his people calling her Queen!" Katrina answered confusedly.
She didn't know and was also innocent of the Mafia World. I will send her away once I will found her Dad.
"Just never mind me. Relax in here and become strong. And soon, hopefully, you will live a new life with your Dad." I told her sincerely.
