A red sports car came to a stop in front of a club in the middle of the night. Amber stepped out of it dressed in a skin-tight black dress, showing off her curves. Her bejeweled heels glinted in the light, giving her a striking appearance overall.

"He’s still inside, Ms. Altman. I’ve been keeping watch all this while." A lackey walked over to Amber from a dark corner.

Amber gently touched her hair stick. If things went according to plan tonight, her beloved hair stick would be used to end Axel’s life.

Amber soon came to a stop behind Axel.
