The Hot Mother and Nine Gangsters

Uncovering the Truth - Violent Zone (3)

"I-I agree, let's work together!" chelsea answered with doubt. To be honest, he was still worried about what would happen if Kaitlyn was included. How could he trust someone he doesn't like. Moreover, Chelsea knew very well that Kaitlyn was carrying out her duties as Foxy at the behest of her main enemy. Worried if he could stab her in the back at any time.

Kaitlyn grinned as soon as she heard the answer from Chelsea. "God, wise choice for now! I assure you, cooperating with me will not make you lose. You'll get something you want to know, and by watching you, I can be sure you don't make a fuss. If the VIP guests were to be distracted just a little, then I would be exhausted in the hands of the Chairman and Division Head! We are both lucky!"

Kaitlyn lifted the suitcase she had been carrying. He pointed the suitcase in front of Leon and Chelsea. When the suitcase was opened, there were two objects in the form of a mask. However, not a plain white mask like VIP guests or plain black like the crew. The mask is a gold mask.

"What is this for?" asked Leon who was starting to feel a bad feeling.

"This is a golden mask. The chairman himself has also arranged this for the two of you to wear. This mask is made different from VIP because it avoids protests and complaints from them. The VIP guests will only be served by the black masked crew, but the two of you are specially served by me. So wear this mask to avoid the suspicion of the guests!"

"Alright," Leon replied while nodding. He then took out one of those gold-colored masks for him to put on himself. He also took the other one to be paired to Chelsea's face.

"Hows it? Is it fitting?" ask Leon to Chelsea.

"Slightly tilted, the hole for the eye is not yet fitting, I can not see clearly," replied Chelsea with a small laugh.

"Haha, I'll fix it!" leon then fixed the Chelsea mask.

"Ck, stop making out! Don't make me wait long! Watch out later, if you keep stalling, I'll throw you in the middle of the sea!" gritty Kaitlyn who was upset, his eyes felt sore when he saw Chelsea and Leon who could still make out at a time like now.

"Huh, just try it if you can!" Leon grinned, as if to challenge Kaitlyn behind.

"Humph! I don't have time to serve you!" Kaitlyn then turned around, walking first with her haughty steps.

"Let's follow me! And don't forget to call me Foxy from now on! I don't want my identity exposed in front of guests or crew!" said Kaitlyn again who directly changed her speech.

"Yes-yes .. Please help Foxy," Chelsea said in a lazy tone.

"Chelsea, why did you accept the sissy's offer of cooperation? Don't you like him?" ask Leon in a soft voice.

"You're right, I don't like him. But I think .. if we cooperate with him, it will make it easier for us to understand what Violent Zone is like. You and I both come from Division 2, and he's from Division 1, it's obvious he knows more than we do."

"Once yes .. well. But you have to remember, don't trust him completely!" leon said with great emphasis.

"Yes, I know. I won't forget what you taught me."

The three of them boarded Violent Cruise. Shortly after they boarded, the ship sailed. As with luxury cruises in general, being on a Violet Cruise can be likened to a vacation in a floating hotel. Its facilities and services are super luxurious will spoil anyone who sails on this ship.

"Where are you taking us?" ask Chelsea who still follows Kaitlyn running.

"I'll take you both to the room on deck 10. And yes .. You two will only be given one room! You guys don't have a problem with that, do you?" foxy asked in a satirical tone.

"One room ...." Chelsea and Leon looked at each other. The faces of the two of them also blushed behind the masks they were wearing.

"A-anu .. We don't care! But why do you have to take us to the room? Why don't you just tell me what I want to know right now?" ask Chelsea who intends to change the subject.

"Heh, do you think things will go the way you want? Basic naive! Your problem will not be solved just by an explanation through words. Wait for the right moment. No need to rush to get off this luxury ship immediately, enjoy whatever you can enjoy" Foxy replied in a sharp tone.

"That's so .." said Chelsea with disappointment. He thought he would directly risk his life and get what he wanted. It was unexpected that he was actually asked to enjoy his time in this luxury ship first. He thought, this was the same as feeding many sheep before being slaughtered.

Chelsea closed her mouth again. He kept glancing in all directions and noticed every corner of the ship. However, there was one awkwardness that he encountered. With a ship this big and luxurious, why only a few guests who ride it.

He thought, when compared to other cruise ships that usually carry people up to thousands, visitors to this ship is still nothing. By calculating the cost comparison of all the facilities they provide, they would incur a huge loss if they only had a few guests like this.

"Foxy, how many VIPs in total?" ask Chelsea again.

"350," Foxy replied briefly.

"350? Isn't that called wasting a place? Now it seems like there are still many VIP guests who have not boarded the ship. And this ship could at least hold a thousand more people!"

"Haiss .. don't equate this glorious Violent Cruise with the cruises out there. The number of guests is small indeed because of the rules of this ship that prioritizes guest privacy. Those VIP guests had also paid a commensurate fee. After all, Division 1 is also not that stupid until it wants to lose. This alone has astonished you, especially when you find out about the real Violent Zone later." Foxy put a humbling smile behind his fox mask, as if laughing at Chelsea's behavior that he thought was so funny.

Once on deck 10, Kaitlyn suddenly stopped stepping. "Well, we've arrived! This is your room!" he said while giving room keys to Leon.

"Okay, I got this key. You can leave us, you don't have to explain anything about room service and so on, I understand that!" said Leon as if to drive Kaitlyn away.

"Ckck, what a bitch this crazy couple is!" Kaitlyn immediately took off her mask in annoyance, and unexpectedly, she instead went into the room adjacent to Leon and Chelsea's room.

"Eh? Is he in a room near us?" Leon looked in wonder.

"Yes, let it be, maybe to make it easier for him to keep an eye on us. Come on in, don't mind him anymore!" take Chelsea with Leon's hand.

"O-okay .... Emm .. but, why are you so impressed to want to rush into the room?" asked Leon with slightly blushing cheeks.

"Eh? I-I'm just tired and want to get some rest, that's all! Don't misunderstand me!" refute Chelsea who finally understand. He realized what could happen if he slept in the same room.

"I don't misunderstand" Leon replied, turning his face away. Quickly plugging the key into his hole, he stepped in and left Chelsea outside as soon as the door opened.

***

NAH!

Leon put his cell phone on the bedside table. He used the phone to contact Liana, telling her he would not be home in the next few days.

The room cabin occupied by Leon and Chelsea is fairly large and equipped with complete furniture. Although they were spoiled with all the facilities, they both still behaved equally awkwardly, because the bed available in the room was only one. Since the end of dinner, Chelsea who has now been wearing pajamas continue to separate from Leon. Sitting on the sofa while looking out, which is only served with a dark sea view.

"...." - ".Leon was silent a thousand languages, sitting on the edge of the bed while continuing to look at Chelsea. "Are you seasick?" leon asked who suddenly broke the silence.

Instantly Chelsea turned her head and said, "T-no! I'm not seasick! Why do you think that?"

"Ahaha .. because since you've been quiet, I thought you felt nauseous or something," Leon replied with an awkward laugh.

"No," Chelsea said again who confirmed that he was not seasick at all.

Silent, their conversation ended. It was late at night, but both of them looked sleepy. This made Leon feel depressed and claustrophobic, he could no longer bear to face this kind of situation.

"It seems like there is no other choice" muttered Leon who suddenly stood up. He approached Chelsea sitting on the couch. "Sleep in the bed there, let me sleep here."

"You sleep there, I sleep on the couch is okay ...."

"Chelsea, listen to me carefully! We are in an unfortunate situation, so we have to save our stamina. It's late, you must be tired all day, so get some rest and sleep right. Do not let your condition become unprimed because of lack of rest," persuaded Leon so that Chelsea want to sleep on the mattress.

"But what about you? I don't want it if I'm the only one that's comfortable! You must also take care of your condition!" refute Chelsea again who feel bad if he is comfortable alone.

"So, you don't mind if we sleep in bed?" asked Leon who immediately made Chelsea's cheeks blush.

"U-for what object? After all ... the bed is also big ..." replied Chelsea timidly.

They both lay on the bed, agreeing to sleep in the same bed. Despite sleeping together, their sleeping positions turned their backs on each other. Both are on the sidelines and keep their distance from each other.

Both are still awkward, this atmosphere is similar to a newlywed couple who are nervous when going through the first night. Although they had previously gone through a hot romance experience together, it was basically due to the influence of drugs and accidents.

Moreover, when Leon had full consciousness, he still clearly remembered every single thing he did that night. This is what Leon has always thought, he feels bad if it makes Chelsea feel less comfortable sleeping in bed with him. As a result of this feeling, he did not go to sleep because he was not yet sleepy.

The night was getting late, there was no conversation between the two of them. On the one hand there is no visible movement from Chelsea. Leon who knows it thinks if Chelsea have fallen asleep. Suddenly he turned around, shifted closer and hugged Chelsea's body from behind.

"Eh?! L-Leon?!" Chelsea gasp.

"You haven't slept, have you?" asked Leon who was surprised in fact Chelsea had not slept. Right now he was half-dead embarrassed, afraid that he would be considered a perverted man by her. Leon's petrified, he didn't let go of his arms. He allowed Chelsea to get rid of his own hands if they objected.

However, what happened was that Chelsea seemed resigned. He let Leon's hand remain coiled around his waist. "Yes, I can't sleep" Chelsea replied with a faint smile.

"Why can't you sleep? What are you thinking?" ask Leon again. Secretly he also felt happy because Chelsea did not mind being hugged suddenly by him.

"I'm thinking about death. For some reason I fear that if I die now, I fear death with regret. Soon I'll find out about the reason for my brother's death, even though it's been my obsession all along, I still have one more thing to do ..." chelsea said with a slightly trembling voice.

"What's that?"

"It's about Luciel, even though he's not my biological son, but all this time I've been taking care of him myself since he was a baby. I know this is because I'm selfish. But, still my love for her is real .... I'll be honest with you, actually ... Nisa once invited me to meet her secretly."

Leon's eyes instantly widened, "W-what?! But when?! Has it been a long time?! What is the chairman talking to you about?!"

Chelsea felt guilty, seeing Leon's immediate bombardment with questions, he finally knew he shouldn't have kept this a secret from the start. "I knew you'd react like this. Sorry for just telling you now. I just don't want you to worry about me. My meeting with Nisa didn't last long, in essence ... Nisa wants to make it clear to me that she holds my weakness."

"You mean ... Is Luciel currently in the hands of the chairman?!" leon asked in disbelief.

"Yes, and Nisa says if she finds Luciel by accident. I had thought that he had kidnapped her, but when I saw Luciel's expression. And the day before we got here, I was investigating where Nisa's son went to school. I staked out from a distance, and I also saw Luciel attending school in the same place. Back then, I wanted to run and hug her, but I couldn't."

"Then .. at the time of the meeting, Nisa also told me that the truth about Luciel's biological parents was known. After she took care of Luciel for over a month, Luciel was taken care of by my sister and her husband. Everything's been a mess like this, so they must have known I was alive all along. And my father, the figure I hate the most and have always avoided, I'm sure he's been putting people in search of me."

"When all this time .. I ran away in spite of him. I even thought, if I'd better be a gangster forever to avoid my father. But, Nisa made it clear to me that she won't let me linger in this organization. That's why I told you that Division 1 assignment yesterday was my last."

"Thinking about all this scares me, Leon .... I'm afraid that I can't sleep, in this game it's clear that Nisa won. He managed to play me up like this. After all this was over, I hesitated to live my new life, and I was also afraid that I would die without finishing what I wanted. Perhaps this was the torture he wanted to see, making me feel reluctant to die even reluctantly."

"I'm afraid, Leon ... How about when we close our eyes later, there will be someone coming to kill us? We are now in his territory .... We have to stay up all night and stay alert! We can't let our guard down!"

Leon is concerned about everything Chelsea has to say. Even he felt unbearable when he saw the body of Chelsea trembling in fear. Without saying a word, Leon tightened his arms. He understands and feels understood why Chelsea got like this, he knows very well if this lover has not been fully armed and tough to face everything, like himself who has been a cold-blooded gangster for years.

"Sshhh .. calm down" said Leon close to Chelsea's ear.

"B-but how can I calm down?"

"There I am, I am always with you. We're not gonna die tonight. I've checked all over this room and set a trap near the door. So don't worry too much, okay?" persuade Leon with his gentle tone.

"M-maybe you're right ...." Chelsea fell silent, trying to catch her irregular breathing due to her excessive anxiety. However, he suddenly turned to face Leon, clutched in the chest of his field and hugged him tightly.

"Thank you, Leon. Thank you for helping me to this day."

Leon smiled gently, his hand grabbed Chelsea's head and then rubbed it slowly. "Well, so new right. All this time you may have been used to it yourself, but now you can count on me. So, you don't have to worry about anything overreacting. We don't know what kind of thing is going to happen tomorrow. So, save your energy for something useful. Now go to sleep, okay?"

"OK," Chelsea replied while nodding. He clasped back to Leon and closed his eyes.

What an unexpected night. Leon thought tonight would be the longest night with awkwardness. But who would have thought, now the two of them actually hugged each other and shared warmth.

Though with instead of consoling a sad Chelsea, at least tonight will be remembered by Leon as a meaningful night. He did not know if in the future this kind of thing would happen again. So, he would appreciate every second he spent tonight.
