Months had gone by and we hadn't gotten another opportunity with Leonardo. After the incident in A3, he's definitely been a lot more careful.I had been with Ace's mafia for over a year now. We strayed from capturing Leonardo for awhile, something bigger came up in Ace's mafia that required our attention.Ace and I had grown very close. I would call him my best friend now. However he was complicated man. I don't know if he'd say the same about me, I could just be a pawn in his bigger game but he's my best friend that's for sure. Although recently he started confiding in me about his father. I've still to meet his father even though I live in the same house. Kai is rarely home."My father is insisting on marriage. He wants my heir as soon as possible, he's probably planning on murdering me and raising my heir to his beliefs, obviously because I wasn't so easily manipulated" Ace remarked as he sat on the edge of my bed. I was just sitting on my laptop, humming every couple of seconds so

"We've made no progress Ace!" I slammed my hand on the table in his office."He knows we're fucking looking, obviously it's going to be harder to find him than before Alex!" Ace stated, standing up from his chair. He approached me, getting in my face."Don't think you can ever speak to me like that either. I'll drop this whole case in a second because all of this is for you" He yelled, throwing his phone across the room.He was furious but so was I."We've had opportunities but you've been too busy with this arranged marriage" I shouted back, I wasn't backing down this time. We had slowed down; we were 10 steps behind.Ace turned 18 a few weeks ago. He was preparing for his marriage but it was interrupting our business. I knew this would happen but I would of never expected how angry I'd be. I was murdering innocent people to reach Leonardo. I was murdering people who knew information, even if it wasn't by choice. I couldn't leave a trace."I don't have a fucking choice Ice, you're m

"Why didn't you- why didn't you call me for the funeral?" She questioned, wiping away her tears as seemed to sink into the couch. I stared at the wall, why didn't I call her?."Do you want the truth?" I asked, swallowing back my grief. I knew telling her the truth would hurt her."Of course" She replied, her voice still breaking from crying moments ago."I hadn't spoken to you in months, I just didn't think you cared enough anymore. I also didn't want to drag you into our mess. I couldn't just ring you up and say Avery had died. I couldn't make you just stop your life for us" I spoke as my eyes welled up with tears."I would've thought Alex, I would've," Deja said softly as she rubbed my back soothingly."I'm too far gone" I whispered, before glancing over at her."I'll always be here, no matter how far you go" she spoke reassuringly."Where are you living Alex?" She asked curiously, wiping the tear from my face with her finger."I live with a work colleague" I stated; I knew it was v

We stood at the entrance to the nightclub.I didn't know many people that attended but I had been cut off from the world a long time ago. I didn't even have a phone. No way to contact people for a long time unless it was face to face. Ace and Dante seemed to know everyone here, greeting different people.I attempted to enter but the bouncer shoved me back."What the fuck?" I grumbled, staring at the bouncer who not only towered over me but was pure muscle."I don't know you, you're not coming in" he grunted, shaking his head, keep his palm flat against my chest."You- He's with me" Ace interrupted suddenly, standing in-front of me. He also towered over me. I was tall, 6'0 exact. But Ace was 6'3 and had a big build."My bad" The bouncer uttered, letting us through; He almost looked scared of Ace. I wondered how much power this man truly had. I feel as though everyone would be curiousWe entered the club, immediately walking up a set of red carpet stairs. We slipped through a draped cl

I put the gun to his head and sighed."Then I guess I'll have to slaughter you here" I stated."Do it, you never would" my father grinned."I wouldn't underestimate him if I was you" Ace reassured him, his eyebrows raising; It's almost like he was giving advice."I'm not the same little boy you left behind anymore, I'll kick your ass" I warned him, my face showing nothing except a blank expression.This was bigger than us. Bigger than me and him. This was about avenging my little brother. I knew I wasn't going to let him leave. I knew I wouldn't let either of them go. My thirst for revenge was unbelievably strong. I had to kill someone for his death."Why do you even want to kill us" Leonardo spoke, still holding his hands in the air. I wondered if his arms were going numb. I hope he drops them so I can shoot him.I looked at Leonardo and leaned in close to his face. "Look at my eyes, do they look familiar?.""Yes-um-no-um" He stammered trying to decide what was the best answer. I sho

I threw another punch, my hand covered in Leonardo's blood."Please stop!" He begged, blood spilling from his mouth as he tried to speak.I couldn't feel any mercy for him, no matter how hard I tried. I couldn't feel anything, and the things I was going to do to my father, would be so much worse.Ace stood in the corner of the room, smoking a cigarette. He always seemed to have one with him; he says it helps calm him down. I don't believe that though. I've witnessed Ace being angry, nothing calms him.He began to walk out the door before saying, "Ice, I've got to go. I'll see you at the meeting in my living room tonight""I thought it was a party," I replied, rubbing my hand which was sore from hitting Leonardo so many times. I hadn't been to Ace's house in a few days. I stayed with Deja while we dealt with Andrew and Leonardo."Mm, it is, kind of," he replied before shutting the heavy metal door behind him. That was a bit suspicious.Ace and I were divided on what to do with our cap

I watched as Sofia took a seat next to Kaylo I only knew her name because I had heard Ace mention it previously. No one liked Kaylo, not even me. I don't know why Ace keeps him around, probably because of his father. I watched as Kaylo slid his hand onto her thigh. Sofia reacted viciously, mumbling something I couldn't hear; This girl had a bit of viciousness to her. That's how it seemed anyway.All I knew is that Kaylo was lucky Ace hadn't noticed. I was tired, it had been a long day and I felt like kicking up some drama."Who are you bringing to the ball, Ace?" Someone chirped, I didn't notice who said it.Ace clenched his teeth, not replying. I saw my opportunity."Are you bringing Sofia?" The same person asked."Sofia is just another one of Ace's whores. Look at her, she's dressed in his clothes from earlier" I winked at Ace, expecting him to laugh.Ace looked over at Sofia, who was sitting by Kaylo uncomfortably, barely speaking. I saw his eyes darken."His dad always chooses wh

I stood in-front of the mirror as I checked my tie. I wore a dark blue suit with glossy, black shoes."Alex, stop checking yourself out and help me!" Dante whined from the bathroom.He couldn't do his tie. I just laughed as he stood quietly, looking defeated."Why do neither of you two know how to do your ties, I was the one who grew up without a father you know?" I sighed.Dante wore a brown suit with brown leather shoes and a black tie to match. His suit had a checkered pattern woven into it. I rolled my eyes after doing his tie in two seconds. Dante seemed nervous as he stood by the mirror. I noticed a glimmer of doubt in his eyes."What did you think of Sofia?", he asked suddenly, breaking the silence and grabbing my attention."Not much, she seems more like a distraction if anything. I want her gone", I scoffed, as I sat on the edge of my bed."I liked her, she seemed nice", Dante smiled stupidly in the mirror.It seems like he also has a crush now even though he's bringing his '
