THE SURPRISE 1. THE STORY START

The story is set in a country in Latin America. Krestal was a neighbourhood casanova. His late father left him a lot of money while he was barely 23years of age. 

His mother managed the funds for him, but passed on a few years after. Krestal was not the only child, he has four older siblings, all female. They long got married and lived with their husbands. On several occasions, they asked Krestal to move in with them so they can join hands to help plan his life and funds. Krestal refused, he hates anything discipline and control. The only person he tolerated was his mother, but since she passed on he became a lose cannon. When a husband to one of his sisters attempted to enforce discipline on him and insisted he should let his sisters run his money until he graduates and get a job and also demanded regular report of his movement and activities, Krestal began to avoid him and also bad mouthed him everywhere, calling him a gold digger, in spite of the fact that the man was a successful businessman and had paid his school fees on two occasions. He had never touched their family wealth. This made the man and his other in-laws from his sister's marriages to keep their distance from him and let him be. His sisters didn't like it at all and told him so. He was the only one living in the family house being the only one still single. He actually graduated but with a pass due to his rioutous living on campus. He actually bought some of the pass he got that managed to graduate him. He had no interest in work. He was unemployable anyway. His uncouth manners ensured that. He had millions in his name in some bank accounts, so no big deal. He spent and was given to merry frolicking with abandon.

The sisters, determined not to let him destroy himself, decided to sell their own portion of the vast family house so Krestal will have no choice but to get a job, get married and buy his own house which he could afford from his inheritance, and start a family in his own house. This might help make him responsible. Krestal hated them for this since the huge house accommodated his wayward friends and sexually lose lifestyle with girls of easy virtues he picks at brothels.  Krestal moved out alright, but began to hop from one hotel to another, only coming home to his own unsold apartment once in a while. For him, the three bedroom apartment left for him was below his status.

Krestal had a bad character, he was too proud to stand girls saying "no" to him. He believes if he wants it he must get it. Three different girls who had rebuffed him he arranged their rape. He paid rough guys to molest them. One he personally abducted and raped. He managed to buy his way out of some arrest and prosecution. The girls were all from very poor families and went away with their shame. His sisters actually, on hearing, reached out to some of the girls, settling their medical bills and appeasing their parents. Yet, Krestal won't stop. His next target were Alero and Lisa.

Alero was 30 years old while Lisa was 28. They were good friends and were always together. Both came from disciplined homes and lived decent lives. They were both graduates who met at their place of work, an engineering company, and became good friends. Lisa was in sales, Alero was an accountant. They had just started seeing different men who were also disciplined men. They were already considering marriage. It was an evening. Krestal saw them coming back from work, drove his car near them and parked. He rolled down the glass and began to whistle at them. They ignored him. He came out of the car, smelling of alcohol, spoke to them rudely and arrogantly, promising to buy them anything they wanted. He actually wanted to pick both at once and even said so. They politely told him they were not interested and moved on. Krestal was mad with rage. He shouted at them, "I will get you both for this, I will teach you a lesson you will never forget ", entered his car and drove off.

Three days later, a Saturday afternoon, Alero went shopping and was returning home when Krestal emerged from nowhere and once again asked Alero to accompany him to his house. Alero looked at him with pity and said, "I have heard a lot about you and know how unruly you are, I don't date your type. Let me be. Go away". Krestal was angry, but he came prepared. He planned to forcefully abduct and rape her. His car was near, no one was coming. He planned it well. Took him three days of watching and scouting. "Alero, not that easy...", as he spoke he was closing in on Alero, Alero didn't budge, she stood her ground. As he moved close menacingly, she smiled....

Unknown to Krestal, Alero was actually an undercover FBI officer trained as both an accountant and undercover operative in the Police academy. Her area is infiltrating accounting departments as an accountant to detect fraud and crime. Part of her training included weapons handling and hand to hand combat.

...Krestal made his move. He went for her neck. With lightning-fast movements and precision, Alero skillfully executed a powerful roundhouse kick, landing a solid blow on Krestal's side. The force of the strike caused him to wince in pain, momentarily leaving him vulnerable. Seizing the opportunity, she swiftly followed up with a series of well-timed combinations, overwhelming her injured opponent. With a final decisive move, she skillfully executed a high-speed sweep, causing Krestal to lose his balance and fall to the ground. She skillfully restrained her fallen opponent, ensuring he couldn't escape. She dragged him to his car, put him in the car boot and drove him to the nearest Police station.
