It was almost dawn, but Ramika was still awake with her widened eyes, reminiscing about 'that' night again and again, lying on the bed which was not hers.
It had been three days since Ramika met the 'Legend', but the man refused to answer her and merely advised her to take care and promised she will be safe from then. He even made her stay in his own room and found himself another room to stay.
'Why? Why, in the god-forsaken world, he would be helping me? He kills people for a living, for fuck's sake!' Ramika screamed the question 'again' in her mind, sacrificing another hour of sleep, pondering it.
--
Far away, Diana Jones, the vampire princess, was busy watching over the sky from her window while holding an almost burnt-out cigar in her hand. The cold breeze hit her naked body and the woman who shared the bed with her a few minutes ago was wondering what was it she was seeing from there.
"Ah, honey... Do you want to share something? Any burden on your heart?" the woman laid on the bed asked, grabbing the pillow and cuddling it.
Diana smiled. "Yeah, but no thanks... It's not something that your tiny mind can comprehend."
"Oh... Well, I got paid anyway. Do you mind if I stay a little longer and leave after 10 or so? The sunrise is just starting..."
Diana flicked the cigar away and strolled towards the woman.
"Let's just do it one more time... My mind is not peaceful," she whispered and pulled the woman close to her.
"Why, though?" she asked while also moaning to her customer's touches.
"You want to talk or fuck?"
"Ah, hmm... Talk 'and' fuck?"
Diana nodded to her with a smile and softly massaged the woman's breasts. Strolling her fingers from there, she thrusted her fingers under the woman, making her moan deeply.
"He was a man I was engaged to. A fellow employee working at the same company as me..."
"Oh, an ex-boyfriend, huh?" the woman asked while panting and moaning in pleasure.
"Ex? That's a reach. You see, I was about to inherit the company since my dad was the owner... And I was just working as an intern to learn some work experience. I don't know what he saw in him! He asked me to marry him... That loser."
The woman licked all over Diana's neck while Diana continued to narrate, keeping what she was doing and what she was thinking separate.
"Hey, go down on me..." she ordered. The woman, sweating heavily, nodded and devoured Diana, like a beast, evoking a small moan from her as an appreciation.
"And... I was actually in love with another guy. A prince nonetheless. Strong, handsome, rich and influential as fuck. So, I was naturally angry at my father. Said my decision. Even got the loser to get thrashed by my prince and others... The loser eventually accepted his defeat and left the company..."
A voice of sadness peeked out, and a small drop of tears found its way out of Diana's eyes.
"What happened?" the woman asked. To which Diana, replied nothing. She pushed the woman away and covered herself with a long coat, getting up from the bed.
"Thank you for the service, darling... But I'm sorry I have to do my job."
*Bang!* Crimson-coloured Bullet pierced through the head of the woman, exploding it into pieces, as her lifeless body fell from the bed, leaking blood all over the hotel room.
"Like he said... You should have aborted the baby. Blackmailing a politician? Not a good idea. A mere phone call is all he needed to finish you... And Sorry, again."
She said, opening the door. A group of men dressed in plastic jumpsuits and carrying brooms and buckets, bowed to her, to which Diana nodded and gestured them to do their 'job'.
She wore the sunglasses and put her hands in her pocket, walking away to the elevator, in the deserted hallway, with nothing but a long coat on her.
*Ping*
Her mobile phone beeped. But the message she saw evoked all the raging emotions underneath her to boil.
"Yohan..." she whispered to herself, gritting her teeth. She clenched her fist and punched the elevator door; imprinting her fist on the iron-clad door.

A FEW HOURS AGO-
-
*KNOCK* *KNOCK*
Someone knocked on the door. Wearing white shorts and a grey sleeveless sweatshirt, a woman in her early 30s with greyish black hair and an eyepatch, grabbed her walking stick as she strolled towards the door to welcome the 'gentleman' who was waiting outside.
"I would have never thought that the day will come for the legend... to come back." She said with a smile and opened the door.
Yohan with a basket full of chocolates and flowers, smiled back.
"Good morning, sunshine..." He said with a hearty smile to which the woman chuckled, blushing.
"Stop calling me like that, weirdo..."
"What? It is your name, after all... Jennifer Sunshine."
"Yeah, yeah, now give me those chocolates!" She grabbed the basket and walked back to the couch, while also welcoming Yohan to get inside.
It was a house in the middle of a nearby forest, populated by tigers and elephants along with some deer. A house built with the eco-system in mind. No electricity, no products that harm the environment like Air conditioners or bright lights that could cause disturbance to the wildlife. It was a simple wooden home with appliances made of wood.
"Good lord, at least you have a couch..." Yohan sighed and made himself comfortable, resting on the couch, while Jennifer sat in her armchair opposite Yohan.
Though visibly scarred with knife wounds around her cheeks and neck, Jennifer was no doubt a gorgeous woman by every right - Ripped, tall, mature yet cutesy baby-faced. And Yohan, though years younger than her, still felt taken aback by her presence the same way he did back then.
"So, what made you pay a visit?" she asked as she simultaneously lit up a cigar.
Yohan took a deep breath. "I need a favour..."
"A favour? We did everything we could, Yon. You wanted to delay the hit, wanted to relocate the girl, give her a new identity... We did everything. I haven't retired yet, so I refused to take the assignment, to influence the dumb fucks idolizing me to do the same... What else do you need?"
Yohan maintained a silence, only nodding to Jennifer but not saying anything immediately. He took an envelope from his pocket and passed it to her.
"What is it?" she asked, refusing to receive the envelope until she hears the answer.
Yohan said nothing. He placed the envelope on the glass table and simply walked away.
"Just say it!" Jennifer yelled in an ordering tone. Yohan sighed and turned back.
"A request to meet... To meet the 'Judges' and... And reconsider the fate of Miss Ramika."
Jennifer's eyes widened, and she gasped. "Do you understand what that means, Yon?"
Yohan gritted his teeth and nodded. A painful contempt was visible in his face and he hated saying the words, he wanted to say.
"Yeah, I know... It means, I am coming back to the underworld one last time."
