Chapter 102 - Chapter 97: Planning the Impossible

Jay POV

It was around 3 PM when Ciel and I finally got home. But as soon as I stepped inside, my jaw dropped. Keifer, Yuri, Adrian, Felix, Calix, Endrix, Rory, Eman, Kit, Mayo, Blaster—everyone was there.

I froze and asked, "What's going on here?"

Aries stepped forward, his expression serious. "We need to talk."

Before I could say anything else, we all headed upstairs to my room. Keifer immediately flopped onto my bed like it was his throne. The others spread across the room; some sat, some lay down. I went to my own bed while Ciel cuddled into Yuri's arms.

"What's going on?" I asked again, finally sitting up.

Keifer's voice was low but urgent. "Someone is after our lives."

I shivered slightly, remembering the previous day. "Yeah, I realized… yesterday, I almost got hit by a motorbike. And the funny thing is—I was standing on the pavement."

Felix jumped in. "The last time, Percy and I were being followed too."

One by one, everyone shared their experiences. Near misses, suspicious cars, threats… the tension in the room built quickly.

Keifer finally added, "Yesterday, Jay and I were chased by a white car."

Ci-n nodded. "The motorbike was white."

Aries looked at me. "The last time too… you received a threat note that cut your hand."

I frowned. "Wait… but I thought I was just cutting paper."

Keifer glared at me. "I thought you said you were cutting paper."

Aries spoke, voice serious. "This time, the note said: 'This is your blood. Next would be your loved ones. From your late enemy's daughter, S.'"

I turned to Aries, my voice trembling. "Why didn't you tell me what was inside?"

Aries smirked. "Did you tell me there's a girl at university making your life miserable?"

I froze. "What are you talking about?"

Aries pointed at Keifer. "I know Sienna. Keifer told me about her."

I turned to Keifer, eyes wide. He looked nervous.

"Don't change the topic," he said. "Why didn't you tell me you got a death threat?"

"I didn't know!" I snapped. "Okay… now let's get back to the real talk."

Calix asked, "So… what do we do now?"

Ciel's eyes sparkled with mischief. "Let's break into Sienna's house and kill her in her sleep."

I blinked, slightly shocked. "Yes… that's… nice."

Aries immediately yanked my ear. "Are you okay? You want to commit murder?"

Ci-n frowned. "How would we even get in? Have you forgotten how secured her house is?"

Keifer shook his head. "There are cameras everywhere."

Adrian chimed in calmly. "I can hack their cameras and make it show old footage."

I clapped my hands together. "Yes! That way, I can check who Sienna's dad is and what her purpose really is!"

Aries groaned. "You guys are insane."

Keifer grinned. "Exactly."

He turned to Adrian. "How long can you hack their cameras?"

"Twenty minutes," Adrian replied.

Keifer's gaze hardened. "Do you think we can do all of this in 20 minutes? And remember—Sienna's study room has a fingerprint lock. You'll need either hers, her assistant Alex's, or her cleaner's fingerprint to get in."

Everyone looked at each other. Keifer was right—this was no simple task.

I clenched my fists. "We have to try. Otherwise, we'll always be in danger."

Keifer added cautiously, "What if something happens to us… or even you?"

"Nothing will happen," I said firmly. "Our group has been in more danger than this. We can do it."

The rest of the group nodded in agreement.

Aries sighed. "Okay… I have no objection. But what do I tell Angelo, Aunty Gemma, and Mom?"

"We'll tell them we're having a fun week at a friend's house," I said confidently.

Aries raised an eyebrow. "And if they ask whose house?"

I shrugged. "Um… Ciel and Adrian's house."

Aries nodded. "Fine."

I turned to Adrian. "So… we'll be staying at your house for a week, okay?"

"Sure," he said. "I wouldn't mind some company."

I smiled. "Then it's decided."

Rory asked, "When do we go to her house?"

I glanced at Keifer. "Tonight."

"Naah," Keifer shook his head.

"Why not tonight?" I pressed. "We can't go tomorrow morning."

Ci-n chimed in. "Yes, it'll be cool… like spies!"

Keifer smirked. "But remember—always be by my side.

"Of course," I said.

Aries added, "Make sure to inform me about everything."

Mayo piped up. "Why wouldn't you come along?"

"I have to go to school," Aries said.

I smirked. "Our school exploded, not his."

The room erupted into laughter. Couples teased each other—Keifer and me, Yuri and Ciel, Adrian and Valerie. The tension eased, replaced by warmth and camaraderie.

By 4:30 PM, we decided to head to Adrian's house before it got late. I packed quickly, and Keifer and I went together. Our mission was set for 9 PM.

And just like that, the planning began… the impossible plan to confront Sienna and uncover the truth.
