Chapter 3 A Shocking Revelation
Same Night - Isabella's House
"Ivan, go outside and patrol the grounds. Gregory, go in the bedroom. If he appears, don't kill him."
Ivan goes outside to patrol the grounds. This leaves Isabella alone with the leader and his man.
"Why do you want to kill me? I don't even know who you are", Isabella says.
"My name is Dimitri and your husband murdered my wife! I've waited over 30 years to return the favor!", The man says with lots of rage and hatred.
Isabella is totally stunned. Chris a murderer? However, he did cheat on her.
Same Night - Outside Isabella's House
As Ivan is patrolling, he doesn't hear a man approach him from the back. The man grabs Ivan and splits his throat. The man takes Ivan's body and hides it.
Next, the man approaches Isabella's house. He uses an infrared camera to see movement in Isabella's bedroom. He approaches the house from the back entrance and picks the lot. He silently makes his way through the house to the bedroom and slowly opens the door. He takes his silencer out and shoots the other man in the head. Finally, he exits the house.
Same Night - Isabella's House
A knock at Isabella's door. Dimitri grabs Isabella and takes her to the door. He orders her to find out who is at the door.
"Hello, who is at the door?" Isabella asks.
"It's Chris, may I come in?"
"No, I don't want to talk to you," Isabella says. Dimitri tells her to let Chris in, so Isabella lets Chris in. Isabella and Dimitri back away from the door.
"Mr. Smith, so nice you could enjoy the party that I have arranged. Should I kill your wife now or should I wait?"
"I have a better idea. Why don't you give her the gun and she can shoot me herself? I'm sure that she'd love to kill me." Chris casually walks in the door and steps over the dog's dead body.
Dimitri takes Isabella over to the couch and makes her sit down.
"No, I think not. I think that she would grab the gun and shoot me."
"What is going on here?" Isabella asks as Chris comes closer to Dimitri and her. She notices that Chris's eyes are cold as ice and if she's not mistaken she sees death in those eyes that used to look at her with such love.
"Chris, did you really think that your supposed affair and elaborate plans would stop me from killing your wife?" Isabella gasps. "Isabella, in the words of one of your movies, "Don't Be Stupid".
Chris looks over the situation. He knows that he can kill Dimitri and his friend before they harm Isabella.
Dimitri grabs Isabella and puts his gun to her head. "Tell me, Chris, can you pull out your gun and make a perfect shot? Can you risk killing your lovely wife?"
Chris pulls out his gun and takes aim at Dimitri. "The man who has killed so many men, women, and even children can't take one simple shot?" Dimitri says trying to taunt Chris.
Chris drops his gun in frustration. "Damn you, what do you want? Let her go and I'll do whatever you want."
"Igor come over here. In order to save your wife you must first kill Igor."
Igor is over six feet tall and a large bulk of a man. He and Chris begin to fight. Chris kicks Igor in the stomach and Igor his Chris in the head. The men are involved in an intense fight to the death.
"See Mrs. Smith what you have married? Chris's quite the killer, isn't he?" Dimitri says as Chris gets Igor in a neck embrace and breaks his neck. Isabella stares at the fight in total disbelief. She can't believe that she's just seen her 60 year old husband take down a much younger man. What the world has he been eating, Wheaties?
"Now, what's your next command?" Chris says.
"I'd love to tell you to kill your wife, but I want that pleasure. So, come here and stand in front of Isabella and I. Drop to your knees and put your hands behind your head. As you die, I want you to imagine what I'm going to your wife. I know many ways to torture people, especially a woman" Dimitri slowly lowers his gun to Chris's head.
Chris looks up into Isabella's eyes and says "Izzy, I'm so very sorry for all of this mess". He puts his head down as Dimitri begins to pull the trigger.
Chris executes a move with his legs and knocks both Dimitri and Isabella to the ground. Chris is quickly on the offensive and attacks Dimitri with murder in his eyes. Chris grabs Dimitri around the neck and grabs a syringe from his pants. He injects Dimitri with the fluid.
"Now tell me who else knows that I'm the wolf? Is there anyone else after my family?"
"No one else knows. There is no one else after your family".
"Good. Dimitri I want you to think of this as I choke the life out of you: I'm going to kill your child, your grandchildren, your brother and your sisters", Chris says as he kills the man.
Isabella just stands there in stunned disbelief with her mouth wide open.
Chris grabs his cell phone and calls someone to come clean up the mess. He grabs the handcuff keys from Dimitri's dead body and unlocks Isabella's handcuffs.
"I'm very sorry about all the mess. I've contacted someone and they'll be over to clean up the mess"
"Shouldn't we call the police?"
"No, there's no reason to call the police", Chris says.
"Ah... What happened here?" Isabellaa sks.
The door opens and a beautiful thirty-ish blonde woman enters.
"Tina, you're a little late!" Chris says.
"I was watching you. You had the goons well taken care of. Did you tell your wife the truth?"
"No, plan B is still on," Chris says.
"Chris, you're either a fool or a coward."
"Who are you and how do you know my husband?" Isabella angrily asks.
"I'm just a friend and we're not friends with benefits. Although, if you don't want him, I'd like to try him out for at least tonight. You know what they say about men after they've fought - all that blood lust turns into a lust of a different kind. Well, Mrs. Smith can I borrow your husband for a night full of passion?"
"Tina, enough!" Chris shouts at her.
"No, you can't have him! At least not until I figure out what the hell just happened here!", Isabella shouts at the woman.
"Izzy, I think it's best if you come home with me tonight. You can sleep with Zak. He'd really like that"
Chris takes Isabella back to her house and tucks her in with Zak. Zak wanted Chris to join them, but Chris declined.
The Next Day - Chris's House
Chris comes in to get Zak ready to go to school. Isabella is trying to wake up.
"Go back to sleep. I'll take him to school. Everything I did, I did it for you. Izzy, I love you, goodbye." Chris says as he kisses her goodbye.
Isabella wakes up and looks for Chris. However, he's nowhere to be found. She goes downstairs and turns on the TV...
"Late breaking news. Chris Smith, estranged husband of Isabella Smith, was in a car accident this morning. After he dropped his son off to school, his car collided head on with another vehicle. His BMW burst into flames. A body was found in the car and dental records will have to be used to confirm his ID. We assume that Chris Smith has been killed in the accident. Stay tuned to further updates..."
For the second time in 7 months, Isabella's world fell apart.
