The Great Masquearade: Greed

SPECIAL GUEST, DESIRE AND VENGANCE

"You guys did a wonderful job! I'm so proud of the three of you..."

The four of them went back to the backstage, Blythe was so happy and she send the kids back to the rooms.

"See you later, Big Sis!" The triplets uttered in sync, feeling happy. Just like the triplets, Blythe really liked being called "Big Sis" whenever the littles call her that too. The woman felt quite emotional to hear their sweet and adorable words, with a small smile now on her face.

"I'll see you later. Try not to get into trouble without me, okay?" Blythe then waved to the triplets as they headed back to their rooms, and she went to head into the changing room, hoping to relax for a little bit since the show is already over.

The triplets nodded. Meanwhile, she hurriedly ran downstairs to close the gates, when Blythe saw a trail of blood. Her facial expression suddenly turned into one of worry and concern, as she could not help but notice the trail of blood that she was tracking. Blythe quickly went towards the trail of blood, following it in an effort to find out the source of it. And her curiosity got even stronger when she noticed another trail, and then another trail of blood, and she became almost tempted to find out what was behind all those trails of blood...

She saw an assassin on the outside of Mozoto State near the house. The lady had a fair complexion, a long, white slightly curly hair with ocean blue eyes.

"I got caught, shit."

The assassin panicked. Her hands were bloody, her face was covered with black and white face mask. She was hiding something near the Thalia Field.
The hostess was surprised when she saw the assassin in a state of panic, and she couldn't help but be even more curious now since the lady was covered with blood as well as having her hands bloodied. Blythe could see how the assassin was trying to hide something, which made it really difficult for the woman to resist her desire to know what's being hidden. She quickly went up to the lady's direction and approached the assassin.

The assasin disappeared without a trace. Blythe went into the spot in Thalia Field, and she felt blood.

"Nghh Ahhh!" Mono was there in the bushes, screaming in pain because of the early labor. The poor guy was wounded by the assasin. The woman could feel her heart beating really fast as she was now able to confirm what was hidden, and that made her panic and her curiosity rose even more.

She immediately headed to Mono's direction, immediately going into a complete shock when she saw how much he was already wounded, and she couldn't help but felt concerned and worried for him. The woman immediately went to Mono, and she crouched down to check on his wounds... She can't just leave him here in this kind of state.

"B-blythe, if I c-can't m-make it, please name the baby boy or girl Mitsuki..." Mono yelped in pain. Blythe knew Mono's pregnancy was sensitive, and she was still hoping that the man could survive. "G-gahhh!"

The woman became so worried when she saw how much Mono got injured and he screamed in pain. She really didn't want to lose Mono and she really didn't know what she would do if anything happened to him, but one thing she was sure about was making sure he would be alright and he would survive and be safe. She then proceeded to ask one specific question to the guy.

"M-Mono, please tell me, how badly are your wounds...? And where are you bleeding?! Please... J-Just tell me!!!..."

"I-in the back and it still bleeds, G-gahhh!"

He let out a loud shout and finally, the baby boy was born. Still, Mono didn't make it.

"WAHH!"

The baby boy cried. Blythe felt her heart breaking and breaking as her worst fear finally became true. She was now grieving for him, knowing how precious he is to her and her feelings were overwhelming. She couldn't believe how such a beautiful thing was now gone... She could see the baby now, and she felt that the baby's cry was something that Mono would have absolutely loved, which was the most heartbreaking thing to her... She just wanted Mono to make it and be here with his baby boy, but sadly the father could not be anymore... The hostess fell on her knees and started sobbing...

Mitsuki was premature, so that means Blythe needs to take care of the child properly. The lady cutted off the umbilical cord, then wrapped the newborn child with her clean blanket. "W-wahhh!"

The hostess couldn't do much to hide her tears anymore, and she just kept her head down as she continued crying while holding the baby, as if she couldn't move anymore because of what she had just experienced. The baby's cries and the thought of Mono not being anymore broke her apart.

"...M-Mitsuki... I will take care of you... J-Just like how your father wanted me to..."

She quietly went back to the House. Blythe saw Marcus full of red stains, too. "Good evening, Harper. Is that thing Mono's kid?" He asked, wiping the blood smear on his right cheek.

Blythe stopped her crying temporarily when she heard Marcus calling for her, and she quickly turned her attention to him. She was still sobbing but she then slowly nodded when she saw the red stains on the man's face, which also suggested that she was right. "Y-yes, Marcus... It is Mono's kid, the baby boy named Mitsuki..."

"Oh, then where's Mono?"

He asked, looking for the box man. Blythe felt her tears running down her cheeks again. She could hardly make words as she heard the man asking the question, but eventually Blythe managed to utter a few words.

"M-Mono... Is..." The woman was about to finish her sentence, but her tears started running even faster than before when she tried to speak, making her unable to speak anymore for the moment.

Blythe kept her head down to try to prevent herself from getting more distressed, but it was clear that she was still feeling sad and heartbroken when she heard the question. And she quickly responded, trying to make her voice sound more calm as if it would make her sound less distressed when she spoke.

"M-Mono is gone... H-He didn't make it... I'm sorry, Marcus..."

Marcus pulled Blythe into a warm, loving hug as he stroke the hostess' head warmly. "You could cry all you want, it's fine Harper." His voice was gentle and calm, just like the waves in the sea.

As she slowly walked towards her bedroom, she swore revenge on the white-haired lady who killed Mono and almost killed his newborn kid. Blythe felt her blood boiling.

The thought of revenge was running in her mind, and she couldn't control her anger and her rage, and she didn't care at all what the consequences would be. She felt a great desire to just go after that lady right now and seek payback. And all she wanted now was to make the one who was responsible for this pay for what she had done to the family that she loved so much... She didn't even care if she was being illogical right now.
