Dangerous Illusions

Chapter 20

"Excuse me, who the actual hell do you think you are?" I asked him,

"I told you, I'm your father,"

"In case you haven't noticed, this isn't some Star Wars movie, where you can just come in and say crap like 'Luke, I'm your father', this is reality," I said and earned a few chuckles and smiles, even from the intruder himself,

"This is also my property and you're trespassing. So if you want to leave here with your life, and no casualties, I suggest you get the actual hell out of this house."

He smirked and looked me straight in the eyes as my gun pointed at his temple," I understand why you feel threatened and offended, so I'm going to do this," He lifted his hand and his men lowered their guns to their sides before I let out an amused laugh, the intruder's smile not once leaving his face,

"If you think I'm going to do the same to show some sort of 'peace' then you're even more off your rocker than I thought. I'm giving you one last chance to get. The. Hell. Out, otherwise, I can promise you that there would be blood spilled, and I can assure you, I'm not afraid of blood, neither is anyone in my gang."

"Now Shadow, I hoped this would have been easier and that you wouldn't have been so stubborn, but of course you got that from your mother," He told me, all humor gone from his futures. He stepped forward with one of his men right beside him,

"If you so much as think that I would step back or not pull this trigger, then you're wrong. As for my family, it has nothing to do with you, or anybody else." I sneered,

"Judging from the crowd, and gang members behind you, these are your trusted men, right? They probably already know about your identity, so Elna Winter, you are my daughter and that goes for your sister, Elizabeth, as well,"

I stepped forward pressing the loaded gun to his head and speaking in such a cold threatening voice that I even sensed the shock from everyone behind me, "If you so much as lay an eye on her or even think about her, you're dead. I'm sure you've heard about my reputation of when I was younger and what I had to do to get at the top of the ranking board, I took some permanent...leave, from that life, and I can tell you now, that I wouldn't mind returning back to that life if it means protecting the people I love and care about, and that definitely includes my gang and the rest of the people that I'm close to. So I can promise you this, I will not hesitate to kill you, now you have ten seconds to get out." By the time I finished the room was silent with surprised faces all around.

"Well...I must say, I didn't expect you to react like that, but as you wish, we'll leave," He said and motioned his acquaintances to leave. I watched him closely and saw that he made brief eye contact with his right-hand man before he turned. Daniel seemed to notice this as well, and before anyone could react he shot both of them, unfortunately for me only in the leg,

They shrugged it off and the guy that claimed to be my father hit the gun out of my hand using my surprised state picking me up and throwing me over his shoulder while the other one through a smoke bomb while racing out of the house with me.

"Elna!?" I heard Daniel's voice in all the confusion, but that didn't stop these idiots,

"Let me go, you psychotic coward!" I said as they dumped me in a white van,

Ironic right?

"Sorry, El, can't do that, your father and I tried to convince you to come with us willingly but, of course, you got the gene from your mother, like he said," He said chuckling and closing the door while jumping into the driver's seat and started to drive off,
