Alex's Sister
Chapter 1 - Let's Play A Guessing Game
Diamond's POV
I looked across the room to where my boyfriend sat. He grinned back. Then we both glanced up to the head of the table, where the ambassador of Malaysia sat. He had annoyed some members of a powerful, rich Russian gang, and they had offered Scorpia 5 million Rubles. There was no surprise that they turned them down. Scorpia only does big jobs. They were lucky to escape with their lives.
But me and my boyfriend were bored, and we needed some Russian money for a big job in a months' time (we can't really risk the banks… well, we can, but we can't be bothered to put disguises together every time we want to get money out, so we keep it in safes, in the many random house's we own, dotted around the world). We were going to do this job quickly, no big deal, grab the money, and head to the UK, to see my younger brother, Alex. I had received information that MI6 were going to try and hire him after the death of my uncle, Ian. I wasn't fussed by this, as we all knew it was a risk we took when we joined this kind of career, but my brother was only 14. I was 7 years older than him, and MI6 weren't actually aware of my existence… well, the part of being Alex's brother, and all; I think they might have noticed that the assassinations have gone up in the last few years.
Oh, I forgot, you don't know anything about me, do you? Well, I'm the oldest Rider child, and when we were young, my mother and father split us up, in hopes to keep us safe. I was only 8 when they died, and I managed to avoid the government by going to Scorpia, and joining the assassination field. They accepted me with open arms. My code name became Huntress, because of the way I killed. I have a habit of tearing out people's throats. When someone was getting too close to us, they would send me to kill them. As a warning, I left them with their throats gone, and a three long knife cuts down the right side of their faces. It scared people away.
I met my boyfriend in Scorpia. He fell for me straight away, but it took a while for me to get used to being close to someone. I knew he found it hard with others, but never me. Now I wonder why I ever pushed him away. You probably know who he is, if you want a hint, take this: he's the second best assassin in the world (most know him as the best, but then there's me, and even he admits I'm better than him).
Still not got it? Ok, I'll tell you.
His name is Yassen Gregorovich.
