Third Person's POV

Brian immediately stopped his abuse on son and turned to towards the frightened woman who had just muttered the words he wanted to hear the most. She would want to marry him.

He knew ultimately that this is what he desired and wanted the most. Almost instantly, he ran towards his "bride" and began freeing her from the ankle locks that were chained around her ankles. While freeing her ankle, her eyes caught the eyes of something....something very powerful that she is certain that it will put Brian into a state of misery.

Still trying to find the key, Brian didn't notice the look of desire on Arianna's face, neither did he felt the hand that was approaching to the syringes in his pocket. He was so concentrated on freeing her that he didn't notice that Arianna already possess the muscle relaxants. She is only waiting for the right time to come.

When the little 'click' was sounded, Brian carefully assist his revengeful bride to get up. But before he let her out the room, he pressed her hard against the wooden wall and attempted to kiss her. Much to her own surprised, she had allowed him to kiss her.

Arianna's POV

I only have a couple of seconds. Execution must be perfect or I am not going to be saved and so is my husband.

When Brian Sr pushed me against the hard wooden wall, I know this is my chance. He still haven't notice the drug that I have in my hand. I am pretty sure this drug can be used to do the same thing that it had done to my husband. It must be some sort of drugs they used for captiol punishment. I know it.

Forcing myself to focus and proceed with my little idea, I kissed him. This kiss will be my only hope to distract him.

Much to the disgusting hunger of him, he returned the kiss. I just wanted to vomit right now. It's so wrong and disgusting.

While he continued to abuse my lips, my two hands are working frantically to de-cap the cap of the syringe.

Here is my chance.

I took one final look at my paralyzed, half-dead husband before returning my gaze at the beast standing in front of me.

Without a single blink, or mercy, or any sort of emotion, I jammed the needle into his exposed neck and quickly inject the drug into his bloodstream.

He screamed when the foreign object were place into his flesh, but it's too late. By the time he realized what I had just done, he fell to the ground where his face turned into a state of pain, betrayal and hopelessness. The normal Arianna would have just break down and start crying for what I just did, but this Arianna standing in front of you is not the same anymore. I don't feel sorry or sad or pity for this beast of a person. He deserved to die.

THIRD PERSON'S POV

In his half- conscious state, Arianna crouched down beside him. On her face hung a crooked, cold-blooded smile. One of those smile that you found on one of those psychopath who killed for desire were hung on her angelic face.

She brushed his brown hair back, staring straight into his helpless eyes that reflects the same emotion as his soul does before whispering next to his ear in monotone that will send chills down anyone's spine.

"Men are stupid creatures. Ultimately, you fear of losing to your son, who is more talented than you, more smarter, attractive. Your fear have turned you into a man of disgust, a beast who has lost his mind into trying to possess the quantities that he desire most. Your fantasies and your delusions and your ultimate hopes of hoping something would happen had cost you your life... You lost.. but you didn't lose to your beloved son. You lost to a woman." She let out a half-hearted chuckled and caressed the skin on his face. " It's a shame that the great Brian has fallen... just like the kings of the royalties, to which were dethroned...by death... In centuries and centuries, loser deserves to die."

Arianna then rapidly stood up from her kneeling position and walked towards to the neglected weapon lying on the ground.

At this point, Arianna had became a whole different person. A person whose fear and conscience have been masked by desire, hatred and cold-bloodiness. She didn't feel a thing, nor the feeling of remorse or regret. What she has to do has to be done.

She picked up the weapon lying on the ground before showing the crooked smile again. The weapon on her little hands fits her perfectly well. In this room, she is the one with the most power. She can control the life and death of everyone, including her husband. The power of domination has caused her into hysteric laughters before the laugh turned back into an emotionless expression.

She aimed the gun at the helpless man lying on the ground. Without a single blink, she pulled the trigger. As the bullet travel through the air, it has find a place into the flesh of Brian Sr. When the blood began pouring from his bullet wound, Arianna dropped the weapon and ran towards her beaten husband and the man named Parker, who both were unconscious.

She knew she must remain innocence in all of this. Must to her delight, both men were knocked out cold, or else she would have to kill them too.

She tried to wake Brian up, but no matter how many tries she attempted, his heavier body would just slump as if the backbone of him has been removed. Before she was able to run out of the room, the detectives ran in.

The moment the detectives walked in, relief flied through the room as they witness Arianna being alive. In their hearts, many of them thought she was dead at the sound of the second gunshots. That's why they had defied against their order and broke into the house.

"I thought you are dead." Detective James asked the unscratched, crying woman.

"I.....i...... am not....I ki...killed him...." She pointed at Brian's body on the ground. But instead of approaching the body, James pulled her into a comforting hug, one that she has been longing. To be honest, in the heart of Arianna, she doesn't give a damn if Brian's dead. He deserved every single bit of pain he had took, because she had took the same psychologically.

"Shh....don't worry about it. They will not charged you for attempted murder. This is just self-defenses." He comfortably told the woman before letting go of her and approaching his partner Jamie who was checking the states of Brian Jr and Parker.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the body of Brian Jr and Parker were transported into the hospital, the doctor did their treatments and both of them remained in a stable condition. As for Arianna, she is perfectly fine on the outside. But in the inner circle of this woman, lays a different woman that is opposite of herself. None of them know the presence of her, not even the body's owner.

Notes

Hey there!

One more chapter (epilogue) to go and then is off to Requiem! In Requiem, I will be taking a more mystery and horrified story then the lovey-dovey one because it's more interesting for me to write since my brain has just been popping up these amazing ideas that I would be glad to write. I will just like the sad that the mood in Requiem would be more deep and psycotic because of Arianna's condition and mental damages.

Thanks for reading and enjoy!!!
