Let's Play Your Games, Dr. Hudson

CUHEN and Azael, the newcomers, were given a dead welcome by Hudson. He's working on something on his laptop and hasn't found any answers yet. He was becoming increasingly bored. His mastery of hacking and breaching firewalls in the world's databases couldn't help him find a person he'd been trying to contact for nearly two years. He couldn't find any leads that would help him. Damn! He wanted to squish and slice his laptop. His shit AI robot couldn't even provide him with shit! All files have been removed. He didn't receive a single piece of data.

"What brings the two of you here?"

"Are you still looking for her?" Azael chuckled.

He didn't say anything. He quickly shut down the laptop and took out a cigarette, which he lit in front of his two friends, who was sitting comfortably on his office couch.

"Azael, you nailed it. Herrence is still looking for that runaway Abhaya," Cuhen laughed out loud, claiming that Cuhen only laughs once in a blue moon. Odd. Love has a unique effect on people.

Love? In the case of his bestfriend Cuhen, maybe. He isn't a believer in the fucking shite known as love. Everyone has their own set of beliefs, and he's clearly missing something. He's most likely not human. He believes every woman who calls him a heartless devil. It would be much better if they referred to him as a robot.

"I'm going to take a break on my yacht." Dupes, I'll see you around."

His two idiotic friends laughed. He simply shrugged and walked away. He will never run out of money, even if he does not work as a doctor or a businessman for a year. Millions of dollars are still pouring into his business and hospital accounts. He's a young hot Doctor and Businessman, so he can't blame the women who want to seduce him at the age of 29.

How many women have attempted to bind him around his neck? He couldn't count them, and it was all because of his wealth. Women, their fucking lies, and their avarice. He would never let them use him; instead, he would use them and discard them.

He was sleeping inside his yacht, which was now moored in the middle of the ocean. He pondered but was unable to do so until someone trying to shot him. Damn! He knelt and crawled into the room quickly. He took the powerful type of weapon that had been hidden. Bullshit! Someone seemed to want to kill him again at that time.

He cast a quick glance at his opponent, but due to the darkness, he couldn't see even one of them. What the hell is going on here? He appears to be unsure of what will happen next. He had an odd sensation. He dashed to his yacht's secret passage, which was equipped with a small personal single submarine. After a few minutes, he felt the yacht explode from a few meters away, and he gasped in annoyance. Whoever attacked him now, all he could say was that they were hell-bent on killing him. But there's no way! He'll retaliate.

ABHAYA is looking at the right side of the sea. It's been nearly two years since she disappeared completely like a bubble. No one knows where she is, not even her family, but she sent all of her savings and a personal letter stating that she will be gone for months, if not a year. Then she pretended to be someone who had gone missing. Nobody knows whether she is alive or dead. Yx is the only one who sends money anonymously to her family for daily expenses.

"Kienne, Yx is calling you," Jackylyn awoke from her reverie.

They are very close. She recalls the girl being bloodied and scarred when she arrived on the island last year, and she was among those who showed up to watch.

"Has he shown up yet? Didn't I think he was in Russia looking for his next target?" She shifted her gaze to her companion.

"Go to his office. Perhaps Yx will assign us something!" Her face lit up and ecstatic about what was said.

She burst out laughing. It was just a new assignment. She said her goodbyes to Jackylyn and walked a few meters to Yx's office. She is well acquainted with Yx. It was as if they were best friends, with a wall between them.

Yx was the man who assisted her that night, and she is now a woman who is not afraid to face the world. She was able to keep up even though she was wearing a mask. The Abhaya woman who used to be a fool has changed dramatically. She is the woman who can and will kill anyone who stands in her way.

As she sat in the chair in front of her desk, she called out the man's name, "Yx."

It looked up the information and then quickly returned to the folder being read. Before it spoke, there was a brief moment of silence. It's Yx's nature that when they talk, it's as if she's being eaten alive by its eyes.

"New assignment," he said, "And this one isn't too dangerous. All you have to do is ensure his safety... ”

"Wait-wait, his?" She emphasizes the 'his' part and raises an eyebrow.

Yx gave a nod. "Right, 'his'. You and Jackylyn will be responsible for keeping an eye on this man from now on. To be honest, he can defend himself, but his parents hired a bodyguard to protect him with or without his consent. Jacky will apply for the position of secretary, and you, in turn, are the appropriate bodyguard. And, yes, this man is unaware of our scope of work. Nobody is aware that we are highly classified agents. Nobody knows who we are or what we represent. All you and Jackylyn have to do is keep thim safe at all costs."

She was bored and just stared at the ballpen Yx was holding. Why hire them us bodyguard? She didn't like that type of work, so she was disappointed.

"He's a busy man, and many people are trying to kill him, and it's up to you and Jacky to figure out who is behind who wants to kill him."

She gave a nod. Deal. She doesn't mind whatever project or assignment Yx assigns them as long as it's challenging. But, in any case, Yx ordered it, and it was as simple as pie for her. One of the most difficult things they did was join Yx in raiding the major drug syndicates in China. They nearly caught her and shot her in the stomach.

She accepted the assignment without first reviewing the profile of the person she needed to protect 24 hours a day, seven days a week. She simply went out and went to the sea. Jackylyn will handle those reading stuff.

When she escaped from the hospital that night with Yx, he led her to this island. She counted about thirty people on the island, all of whom were training and sparring with one another. There, she discovered that Yx was an ex-army member. When his wife and son died, he exacted his vengeance and formed a clandestine organization.

Mostly with agents like her, who have no real experience and have only developed talent and skills as a result of a traumatic past. That is what drove them to remain firm and fight like a thief in the dark. Nobody is going to notice.

That is not the case with Yx. In fact, he is in her late thirties. He's both handsome and stunning. It's ironic because nearly every female agent has a crush on him. She was nothing at all.

Neither was the training she had taken for granted. Tears and pain became an investment for her just to get to this point. She trains all hours of the day and night, from the fundamentals to survival. How to use a gun, a knife, a sword, and how to kill with only one hand and one foot. She isn't very good at cyber, so she always has a partner, and that partner is Jackylyn.

Abhaya drive the car that Yx had given them. While Jackylyn examines the folder containing the background of the person they will be watching. Mostly, Jackylyn tells her what she needs to know. She is a slacker when it comes to reading, which irritates her at times.

They stopped in front of a big mansion worth millions of dollars. Jackylyn no longer accompanying her inside. After all she's the only one needed. Jackylyn is like a lookout. Yx was no longer with her because he was flying to China the next day, and Yx was confident in their abilities.

She wore red stilettos, a red spaghetti top, a white faux leather jacket, and sexy high waist jeans. Her body is curved, and she does not appear to be an undercover agent. She look like a run away model. She's not the same person she used to be. Who would have guessed she'd act like this now, as if she owned the world?

She was still wearing sunglasses when she went inside, where the maid directed her after she said her fictitious name. She rolled her eyes at the house's luxury, but she didn't have time for it.

She noticed a man and woman in their late 60s in the living room. She quickly approached them and shook their hands after introducing herself as the one sent by Yx. She looked around, hoping to spot the man she'd be watching so she could finish the job.

"We know our son will be upset, especially since we took a girl, but we don't have a choice; we desperately need it. He almost died and was burned inside the yacht the other day," said the lady, clearly upset by the incident.

After all, what mother isn't concerned about the safety of her child? "I understand you, Mrs—" She took off her sunglasses and wait for it to reply.

“Mrs. Hayes. ”

She was flabbergasted and drew back her tongue. Her heart skipped a beat when she heard the lady's last name. Hayes? She was shaken, and maybe it was just a coincidence that her last name was the same as the man she no longer wanted to see. Who cares? She was no longer interested in the man.

"You can rely on me, Mrs. Hayes. I solemnly promised that we'd do everything to protect your son," she said flatly, but everything she said was true.

"Thank you Ms. Kianna Trunt, we're glad to hear that," the couple said at the same time.

"Who is she?" A voice echoed through the house like thunder and lightning.

She stood up and turned around gracefully to introduce herself to the man, bringing her world to a halt for a brief moment. The man in front of her now was the man she didn't want to see again, the man she had cursed to die!

She immediately removed the shock and reapplied the mask, which should not have been used because she had buried it for a long time. She pretended not to recognize him and smiled sweetly at him.

I'm going to kill you on this one, Yx. This is complete nonsense. She screamed in her head.

She could see the shock in Hudson's eyes when he saw her and obviously couldn't believe the sight of her beauty. She wanted to laugh sarcastically; it was impossible that Hudson still knew her, and just in case, she might hang a medal around his neck with great verve. It should be honored for that!

"Hello, my name is Kianna Trunt! Your personal assistant, also known as your bodyguard. Nice to meet you, Doctor Hayes," she said emphatically. She is disgusted even when she pronounces his name. Hudson's face was expressionless as she stared at him and stepped closer to her.

"Son, we hired—"

"Don't worry, Mom, she's hired," he said, interrupting his mother.

The two elders were stunned and looked at each other, obviously unable to believe what they were witnessing, but they did not speak any further. Excitement can be seen in their eyes, and it appears that they had no hesitation in agreeing to escort her.

"What's your name again?" Hudson sat on the single sofa.

She sat up and smiled with no emotion. "Kiana Trunt."

It stared her down as if he was reading her, and she just let him because Hudson could never read her. If she'd known Hudson was the man they're protecting, she'd never agreed to this assignment!

"You look familiar," he said flatly.

"Really?" She didn't want to answer him, but she didn't have a choice.

"I believe we should leave. Bye, son. We're still going to see Cuhen's twin. Kiana, we'll go first. Thank you once again." Ahis parents say as they wave her goodbye. She only nodded.

She was awed by the news that Ellah and Cuhen had twins and secretly smiled, happy for the couple. How would Ellah react if they saw each other? It's ironic because this is her first assignment in the Philippines. She mostly digs her own grave abroad.

Hudson immediately let her come to his meetings. Surprisingly, Hudson never complained about her role as his bodyguard, despite the fact that she is a woman. Pfff! Maybe it's one of those women he hurt before who are trying to kill him now. Protecting him? She wanted to laugh. She might have backed out if it hadn't been for Yx and if she had just read the information.

They were sitting alongside in the passenger seat, both silent. She and the young Doctor both just stared straight ahead. This is the most difficult assignment she has ever had! Her fist was clenched. Why, of all people, is she still here with the person she still despises?

"What agency do you work for, Ms. Trunt?"

She twisted her eyeball in private. She would rather not speak, but since he is now the boss, she's obligated to answer every question.

"Ask your mother about it, Doctor Hayes."

He gave her a surprised look, but she ignored it. She's too tired to give a damn.

"She looks exactly like you," he said later, his gaze fixed on the road.

She did not respond. She simply looked ahead and hoped that they would arrive at their destination. The only thing that bothers her is that she watches him 24 hours a day, seven days a week, which means she can always see Hudson.

She tried to sneak a glance at him and read him with her eyes, but nothing changed; Hudson was difficult to read. Abhaya noticed that the man had changed a lot during her nearly two-year absence. It grew even hotter and more devilishly handsome. His hair was a mess on top, and the scent of the aftershave indicated that he had just shaved. She was shaken as she remembered the man was a demon.
