'Empire' season 2 spoilers: Cookie goes in for the kill

Camilla (Naomi Campbell) may be on top of the world now, but she should not be celebrating yet. There is another woman watching her every move and is just bidding her time before she goes for the kill. In the second half of "Empire" season 2, Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) is the most dangerous one to watch out for.

According to Melty, Camilla may have vested Empire from poor Lucious (Terrence Howard), but "the keys to the kingdom" is still with Cookie. For now, it may look like the Lyon's reign is over, as the only remaining family member left with the company is under Camilla's influence. Hakeem (Bryshere Y. Gray) appears to have been completely brainwashed, as he ousted his father from the CEO position. That will soon change, however, once Cookie makes her move.

With the family undergoing a crisis, Cookie has remained steadfast in her belief that Empire will be returned to Lucious. She is furious with her youngest child for ever daring to take down his father. In season 2B, viewers can expect that she will go on the offensive. Cookie will take back what is rightfully theirs, and Camila will better be ready when the time comes.

Unfortunately, one important member of her family is set to die before Cookie can get to Camilla. In the promo episode for the upcoming midseason premiere, the woman is commanding a hit man to kill somebody. It remains unsure who she is pertaining to, but spoilers point out to Andre (Trai Byers) as the target. iDigitalTimes reports that the eldest Lyon child could be the first victim of Camilla's revenge.

The website cites Robert Ham, the author of "Empire, the Unauthorized, Untold Story," as the source for the Andre theory. Ham reportedly said that he would be the first character to get killed off the show in season 2B. Lucious' life would also be in danger when he gets involved in a prison riot. Anika (Grace Gealey), his former girlfriend, would be the second one to go, and Lucious would be the one to kill her.

"Empire" season 2 will return on Wednesday, March 30, at 9 p.m. EST on FOX.
