COBRAS CLAN**
LEX’S APARTMENT**
“The clan seems differently quiet since you arrived godfather” Jubilee smiled as she poured the wine for him
Lex nodded with a fake smile
“It should” He said
“So,how is it going with you and Venom?” He asked
Jubilee chuckled
“By now,I’m sure he’s dating Marissa already” Jubilee said and Lex frowned
“Marissa? Pedro’s daughter?” He asked
“I guess she is” Jubilee muttered
“He wouldn’t do that” Lex laughed dryly
“I’m serious,he wouldn’t even look at me. I’m as good as useless in this clan,I want to leave. I think I should go since I can’t have him…..”
“So you coming here was not because there’s a problem in your clan?? You came here because of Venom?” Blade entered,glaring at Jubilee angrily
“So what??” Lex snapped
“You’ve controlled Venom’s life enough godfather,he can choose any woman for himself. And definitely not her” He pointed at Jubilee who released a scoff before going out
“Blade….”
“It’s true Venom and Marissa are dating,but I don’t think you can do anything about it father” Blade cut him off
**
Venom parked the car and immediately Drake came to them
“Boss,the godfather would like you to come over to his suite right away….with her” Drake said,referring to Marissa
“Why?” Venom frowned and Marissa held his hand
“Let’s go….don’t worry about me” She said
“You don’t have to….”
“Trust me…please” Marissa said
Venom sighed
They walked to Lex’s apartment and were allowed in,they met Blade there.
“You’re finally here” Lex released a short smile
Venom ignored it and said nothing
Lex turned to Marissa who immediately bowed
“You’re welcome,godfather” She smiled
“It’s a good thing,to see you smile. Marissa” Lex smirked
“I guess” Marissa nodded and smiled again
Venom and Blade exchanged meaningful glances
“But then….” They both turned immediately Lex started
“You both know the rules right?” He asked
“You are not allowed to date….”
“Because love is considered a weakness,but I heard you want Jubilee for Venom,godfather” Marissa cut in immediately and Lex raised his brow before laughing out dryly
“Well,it’s true I want Jubilee for him. Because they will look perfect together,definitely not his enemy’s daughter or a weakling” Lex said
Venom tried to move forward but Marissa held him back and moved forward instead
“Enemy’s daughter,accepted. But…what??? A weakling?” Marissa chuckled and looked away
“Oh…..I guess it’s what I’m thinking,Did your boyfriend,perhaps….trained you already?” Lex asked
“Obviously” Marissa smiled
“Oh wow” Lex smiled and began clapping
Venom finally had enough,he grabbed Marissa’s hand and pulled her back
“I know you’re worried about me ending up like father,but you have to trust me at least.” Venom said and Blade roll his eyes
“Yeah I guess I should trust you….but how about…..your sweet girlfriend pass a test first?” Lex asked
“No,there’s no need for a test” Venom snapped
“She should answer that for herself,not you” Lex said and turned to Marissa
“I will approve your relationship with him if you pass my test,are you In or not” Lex asked
“What test?” Marissa asked and Lex smirked before dropping a brown envelope on the table
Marissa took it and opened the envelope
She could see a picture of a man in his late forties and then some notes
“What is this?” She asked
“You’re going to kill that man right in the picture and return to the clan with the money he just got from a business partner,every information you will need is right inside that place….That’s your test and you’re going to do it all alone,are you still in or not” Lex smirked and puff out the smoke from his pipe
“Father!!!” Blade yelled angrily
“She’s not doing any Füçking thing” Venom said and tried taking the envelope from Marissa but she ignored him and moved closer to Lex
“I will do it” She said boldly
“What are you saying?? You don’t have to listen to anything he’s saying” Venom said to her but Marissa kept quiet
“You will be going alone,no partner” Lex said
“I said,I will do it” Marissa repeated,more loudly this time around,staring straight into Lex’s eyes who finally let out an evil smirk.
