I don't understand you, Elizabeth. What happened in the two days I let you be?' He asked, his eyes tilting in confusion less than concern.I tightened my lips. I didn't want to tell him too much. I didn't trust him enough either, ever since he disappeared without a word.'You'll get to know soon enough,' I said and walked towards my vanity, taking out things I'll need.'You'll need more of that perfume,' Lance said with a knowing smirk.'Guess you catch on quick,' I said, mirroring his enthusiasm.'But this is suicide. You know he'll kill you if he discovers who you are. The Mafia is ruthless and Adam is no exception. Your late parents will understand that you tried revenging them. You don't have to kill yourself, child.' Lance said, walking up to me.I am almost reminded of my dad because they both share the
ADAM'S POVRichard was one to get angry quickly. He always wanted to be the Mafia Boss after our father died. He loved power so much and was blinded by the little he was given.'You'll be my second-in-command after Dad dies' He always tells me.One day, when he was 19, Dad caught him making out with one of his mistresses at the back of our house. He was chained in the red room, tortured and kept for days without food. When I tried sneaking in food for him through the window, a guard caught me and reported me to my father. I was chained in the second room, with lesser punishment. But that still didn't change my hatred towards my father.Richard had already resigned to his rate of being an orphan. He never considered the Mafia Boss as our father. On the third day, we were released. Richard swore an oath to protect me against my father.'The doctor is here Boss,' I hear one of my men say.I snapped into consciousness immediately. I look at Richard and see him nod slowly at me. The doctor
Elizabeth POV'"The gates are about to be open, Lily." I announce, taking in deep breaths to calm my nervousness.I was about to enter into the den of my enemy, I needed to be calm and cool otherwise I'd flop off my chance at the very beginning.I was more nervous since I hadn't been able to get in touch with Lance. It's been two days already and no one has seen or heard from him."Does my ponytail still look good? I have a feeling I should let down my hair instead" Lily's voice echoed, interrupting my thoughts."You look okay." I respond, barely glancing at her hair. I had my focus on Adam in front."Just "Okay"? " She wailed, irritated byy response."Ugh. I knew I should've worn the blue dress! Look at these women, they're better dressed!" She whined."Trust me, Lily, you look better presentable for the role than they are." I say effortlessly, trying to lift up her spirit."Easy for you to say when you effortlessly look like a hot top model even if you had on a baggy jeans and shirt
Adam POV“What do you want?” She asked with a smirk.“Nothing. Don't worry,” I said and walked away.Gulping down on my second shot of whiskey, I started to grow impatient waiting for Aaron, my brother's personal psychiatrist.Re-reading the Letter my brother, Richard, had sent me years ago, the task of finding him a suitable wife lingered on my mind.With his mental condition, I had never considered Richard would want a wife.We'd managed to hide his illness from the world for so long and built a unique persona for him, bringing in a third party to the family made me feel uneasy.But maybe he did need a wife, he was dying anyway, continuing his bloodline legally wouldn't be such a bad idea.I put the letter back into the envelope and ordered a third shot."Ugh" Someone bumped into me,knocking the letter out of my hand.My men, watching in the shadows,readied their arms in case she was a threat.Keeping my expression stiffened, I turned to look."Oops,my bad!" She says, bending do
Elizabeth POV"Your parents' house was blazing with fire by the time the police had arrived. The firefighters weren't of much help either, everything was lost." Lance revealed softly.I turned my face from him to stare at the monitor reading my heartbeat. I had opened my eyes to find myself lying on the hospital bed."And my parents?" I asked, even though I already knew the answer."The doctor said you had a panic attack,you should–""I'm fine, Lance. Please just tell me the Truth." I demanded, holding back sobs."Their bodies were found brutally destroyed by the fire" He sighed."Thank you" my voice barely above a whisper.."If you want, Eli, you can come to me for anything. Your father was my best friend, you're like a daughter to me. I can –""I want revenge." I blurted out, cutting in.My words must've shocked him seeing he kept mute. I turn back to him, focusing my gaze intently on him."I want to finish what he started". I pressed further."That is suicide! you saw what happe
Elizabeth POVThe hot summer air brushed harshly against my face as I opened the heavy iron door.I stepped into the lonely alley along uncompleted building structures."Find Lance” My father's voice rang in my still aching head.Lance was my father's best friend since recruitment. They had gotten into the police force together and the last time I saw him, he was a constable officer. He didn't spare me a glance when I was young and never asked about my family. I guess they were just best friends in the police force.I pulled over my black hoodie and headed straight to the police station, keeping my head low as I walked."Good afternoon officer," I greeted a chubby man in uniform behind the desk chewing a mouthful of Cheetos."Afternoon miss. What can I do for you?" He responded, barely sparing me a glance.I swallowed my saliva hard and "I'm looking for a man named Lance. Officer Lance, he works here." I said with a gulp, almost choking on my words.He turned to me, sizing me up and d
Elizabeth POV"You're not much of anything, Adam!" My father yelled into the phone. His brows furrowed and his face anxious as he kept looking out the window at a black van parked a few blocks away from our house.Hanging up on the caller,he drops the phone and turns to me."I'm really sorry ruining the family dinner like this, Princess,but you have to come with me"He gently grabbed my wrist and pulled me up from the dining table and led me upstairs to his room.My mother frantically got up from her seat."What is it, Honey?" She tries to sound less panicked than she really was."Adam Mich" He said, signalling her to the van parked outside with a nod.I followed him without asking questions, trying not to fall as I did.My father is a police officer dedicated to his job regardless of the danger that looms. Sometimes the danger follows him home, just like this one."Stay in here Honey, don't come out unless I call for you and if I don't,find Lance! I love you." He kissed my forehe
