Cronus POV

  I left the restaurant while suppressing my rage. Paglabas ko apat na lalaki in a suit ang agad na lumapit sa akin. The bald and bulky guy lead me to the passenger seat of my car while the taller one stands at my back. The two other men just stands beside the car door of the driver's seat. Pagpasok ko umikot sa kabila ang unang umalalay sa akin then he ride beside me while the other two waited for a bit at sumakay na rin. We left the vicinity followed by two more cars. Yes they are my bodyguards.

  I reached for my phone and dialed a number after three rings someone answered.

  [I need you to find a woman for me] Utos ko kaagad sa kanya.

  [You sound angry I assumed the meeting didn't go well?]

  [Shut your mouth and get me that woman!] I am starting to get pissed again.

  [Fine... Sino ba sa tatlo ang gusto mong ipadala ko sa condo mo mamayang gabi?]

   [None of those bitches... I met a woman earlier I want you to find her for me] Galit kong sabi. Those bitches that he mentioned are my comfort women. Mga babaeng binabayaran ko para paglabasan ng init sa gabi. They are my properties and no one can touch them except me. That's why I made them live a comfortable life. They are like my employee, my servants in bed.

  [Oh a new conquer ey!.... Then give me the name] He said with excitement.

  [I don't know]

  [Phone number?]

   [I don't know]

  [At least a picture]

  [None] I said calmly.

  [Boss Cronus naman!... Alam kong alam mo na genius lang ako, hindi manghuhula at hindi rin ako espiritista... Are you trying to ask me to find a ghost for you?] Angal nito sa akin.

  [She's not a ghost... Find her!]

  Narinig ko ang malalim na paghinga sa kabilang linya ng phone. Alam kong kayang kaya ni Nenji makita ang ipinapahanap ko, kahit ano pa ito.

  [Where's Ezra?] I changed the topic.

  [Hunting]

  Napakunot noo ako sa isinagot sa akin ni Nenji.

  [Hanggang ngayon?!] Nagulat ako sa sinabi nya. Ezra is one of my best people. Her pride was crushed two years ago pero parang hindi nya ata makalimutan yun.

  [What do you expect, she's a perfectionist. Until now hindi sya makapaniwala na may isang assassin na kayang lusutan ang mga patibong nya] At tumawa ito ng malakas.

  [I saw when Ezra shot that assassin in the head at nahulog pa sa bangin down to a raging wave. Sa palagay mo ba makakaligtas pa yun?] I already speculate that the son of a bitch was already dead.

  [Not according to Ezra and we all know na halos lahat ng kutob nya ay nagkaka totoo]

  I fell into silence. Ezra's intuition never fail. If that person is still alive we need to find him.

  [Anyway Boss, do you have a mission for Ezra, send ko na lang sa kanya]

  [None... Just look for the person who I talked to this afternoon along BGC road, that's all] Seryoso kong sabi.

  [Aye, aye Boss!] And he hung up.

  I dialled another number, it's Troy's number.

  [Hey Boss cousin... Did the chipmunk meeting went well] At isang malutong na tawa ang sumunod.

  [Gago ka Troy tumigil ka na!] Asik ko sa sira ulo kong pinsan. Yes my most trusted right hand man is also my cousin, younger than me.

  [Fine!... By the way I caught you a rat!] Puno ng yabang ang boses nito. I feel like he is also wearing that smug look on his face right now.

  [Catch another one I have a strong feeling na hindi nag iisa ang dagang yan sa kumpanya ko]

   Matagal ko ng alam na may nang ga gago sa akin at nag nanakaw akala siguro ng mga hayup na yun hindi ko sila nararamdaman. They will not only see hell on land after I caught them all, they will also taste it. Nobody cross Cronus Montague's path and get away with it.
