The billionaire's only desire-Chapter 89: kill part two

"What!" Maya’s brain struggled to comprehend what the man had just said.

"I will not repeat myself, Maya."

"What- do – you mean?" She shuddered, her lips quivering with fear.

"Y-You- want me to kill Dalton?" Bewilderment crept over her as his words sank in.

She was struck with terror when she grasped how horrifying what he wanted her to do was: Kill the man she loved.

"No, No, Please... I can’t .. please don’t kill my friends " Tears trickled down Maya’s face.

"Maya. Your tears won’t save your friends. "You know what to do."

"No, I can’t even kill a fly not to talk about a man! My boyfriend, I can’t do it!" Maya cried out.

The man laughs through the phone, creeping the hell out of Maya.

"That is why I chose you, Angel."

Maya’s knees wobbled together, and she dropped to her knees. "Please don’t kill my friends; please, I can’t kill Dalton." Maya sobbed louder, clutching her chest, which was in great pain.

".What’s it going to be? You either kill Dalton

Black or your friends will die."

"No!" Maya screamed. Her heart felt like it was about to explode. She can’t kill Dalton She loves him so much. She can’t lose him, But she also can’t lose her friends. She loves them, too.

"Get up from the floor, Maya."

Maya’s eyes bulge out in bewilderment. "H-how did you know..... I’m on the floor. "

"I can see you, Maya. I am omnipresent and omniscient. I am all-knowing. You can call me God."

Maya shivered, her fear reaching its peak.

Did this man hack into the mansion surveillance system? How is that even possible?

"Get yourself together." His voice was full of command.

Maya rose to her feet, shuddering severely. She had to lean her body against the wall for support.

"Have you made your decision?"

Maya became silent. Her heart and her mind conflict with what decision she should take.

Maya’s heart burst like fireworks filled with so much love it could contain as she combed through the beautiful memories she had made with Dalton these past months. She realized he was the best thing to ever happen to her life. He has been her savior, knight, and source of happiness. He has become an anchor in her life; without him, her life will fall apart. She would rather die than lose him.

But Natalia, Laura, and Haven have become the sisters she wished for as a child who was scorned by her siblings. They showered her with the love and affection that her half-siblings had refused to give her. She can’t lose any of them.

She can’t let her friends die. Maya shakes her head violently, her body shudders fretfully.

"Okay," That was all she could manage to say. She has decided which life she will take.

Maya let out another sob, gasping aloud. She is going to commit murder. She ran her hands through her hair, repeatedly rubbing the back of her head against the wall. She is losing her mind.

She’s going to be a murderer. She is going to take a life.

"Good. There is an earbud in the first drawer of your dresser, which will make it much easier to communicate with you."

"H-How did it get here?"

The man laughed. "I have my ways. Get it out of the drawer now!"

With shaking hands, Maya opened the drawer and she found the earbud.

It looked exactly like the communication devices used by spies in movies.

"Place it in your ear."

Maya followed his instructions, inserting it into her right ear.

"Now let your hair down to hide it from view."

Maya’s hand shudders as she undid her ponytail, setting her Black hair free as it cascades down her shoulders.

"You look pretty with your hair down." The man’s compliment made Maya flinch.

"Now, go wash your face." Your face looks puffy. Be quick; you only have a few minutes to kill Dalton Black, or your friends will die."

Maya shivered in fear as she dropped her phone and dashed into the bathroom with lightning speed.

She quickly washed her face in the sink. Hot tears furiously stung her eyes as she stared at her frightened face in the mirror.

"And redo your makeup." She flinched in terror, forgetting he could talk to her through the earbud.

Maya washed her face yet again. Straightened her hair, took a deep breath, and walked out.

She redid her makeup as the man instructed.

"Good, girl. Do as you are told, and you will find your friends alive and well tomorrow."

"Okay," Maya nodded bringing her hand to cover her mouth to prevent a sob from ripping out.

"H-how am I going to-k-kill" The words choked in her throat as the evil nature of how it sounds hit her. God! She is really going to do this? Maybe this is just a dream, a nightmare she needs to wake up from.

"There is a gun in the last drawer."

Maya checked the drawer and found a pistol sitting at the bottom.

When and how did the gun get in here without being detected?

The mansion security system’s motion detectors or advanced video cameras with analytic software could have detected the pistol.

This means this man breached into the security system and placed this gun in here without raising an alarm.

The door abruptly opened, revealing River’s distressed face.

"Hide the gun. Remember, your friends’ lives are on the line." ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Maya quickly shut the drawer.

"Maya, are you okay?"

"Foolish girl, your screams must have alerted him. " The man spoke angrily through the earbud.

Maya ignored him and was about to scream out to River: Dalton is in danger!

But the man reminded her. "Don’t you dare, Maya? I will have my men kill your friends without hesitation."

Maya took a deep breath and forced a fake smile across her lips, concealing the fear that hung over her. "Oh, I was talking to my friends about something exciting, and I got carried away." She gave a laugh.

"Glad you are okay; you scared me." River respires.

"Bravo. You masked your fear effortlessly. You are a natural. You should consider a career in acting." The man sniggered in Maya’s ear.

Maya became dense inside, and her fear was gradually replaced by anger. The man thinks he is going to use her to annihilate Dalton, but she is going to find a way to save her friends and the man she loves.
