View MoreZena'a POV My eyes flickered open, as I realised that I was in a moving car. The rays of light that entered them made me uncomfortable. I couldn't remember much, but all I could remember was that I had seen Leonardo again.I tried to move but I felt a piercing pain in my head that pulled me back down to the car seat, and I wondered what was going on.'' This is not good'' I whispered as I tried to move again, but that was when I realised that I was held bound, and it was then the adrenaline kicked in.'' What the hell is going on? Where are you taking me to?'' I screamed at the two people in front of me.And that was when one of them turned around and it was Leonardo.I kind of felt relaxed, knowing that it was him who had me, but then I knew I shouldn't be there. I had a mission and Leonardo was throwing me off it.'' Leonardo, what is going on, why do you have me bound and did you hit me over the head,'' I yelled.'' Relax, I had to take you out of there, you were being stubborn, a
Zena's POVI froze in shock as the strange man in a mask said my name. I was confused, no one here knew my real name, so how was this even possible? And as a cop on an undercover mission, I knew this was bad for me, having someone who knew my real name.'' Who the hell are you,'' I screamed as I forcefully freed myself from his grip.The man in the mask didn't say a word, he just kept on looking at me with those compelling eyes of his as he moved closer to me.'' Don't come close,'' I yelled as I picked up a stick from a broken table, and threatened to hit him with it.'' Zena,'' The man said my name again with that familiar voice of his, that was laced with confusion and surprise all at the same time.' How do you know my name? No one knows my name here?'' I asked as I tried my best not to show any sign of fear.A smile crept up on the stranger's face as he took a step back from me and took off the mask from his face and my heart stopped, seeing who was staring at me now.''Leonardo
Leo's POV'' Do I hear 20 for this ravishing beauty,'' the auctioneer asked and when no one answered. He said.''10 thousand, going once, and going twice,'' the auctioneer announced my bid.As no one still placed a higher bid, the auctioneer was about to announce me as the winner but Hugo stopped it.'' 20 thousand,'' Hugo said, placing a much higher offer for the flavour of the evening.'' Do I hear a 25 thousand,'' the auctioneer announced, seeking a higher bid.I was mad. I didn't know why Hugo was doing this, so I placed a much higher offer.'' 40 thousand,'' I said, and the auctioneer smiled.'' Do I hear 50 thousand,'' the auctioneer announced, seeking a much higher bid.'' 100 thousand,'' Hugo let out and I got even furious.I didn't even let the auctioneer say another word before I placed a much higher bid.'' 300 thousand,'' I said, and Hugo looked at me smirking.'' Do I hear a 350 thousand,'' the auctioneer asked.'' 400 Thousand, for that lovely lady,'' Hugo said again.''
( In another city, at Leonardo's home)Leo's POV They said time heals all wounds, but it was no surprise that it didn't heal mine. I lost my only sister and her death broke me more than I thought it would and even though I didn't want to, I blamed my brother Lucas for it.He was the one that brought trouble into our lives, all because of love and that resulted in our only sister's death. He was the head of the family and was supposed to protect us, but he failed us, he failed her.So I knew I needed time away from my brothers, especially Lucas.Many years had gone by since I left home, and I must say that a lot had changed.I started my own business in a new city and I was doing so well that I soon became the strongest name in the criminal world in the city. My life was going well and that made me forget the chaos that Rose and her sister brought into our lives.'' Oh Zena,'' she is one I didn't want to think about, but every time I try not to, I end up thinking about her all the sam
Zena's POV It felt like I was losing my mind. Everything happened so fast. This was not the plan, an innocent girl wasn't supposed to pay for what I did, but it happened and now Ceila had no way of finding me, so I had no hope of helping Rana and these girls in here. With my thoughts racing so profusely, I couldn't get some sleep like the rest of the girls here. I needed a way to get them out of here, but my mind was blank right now. ''Wakey... Wakey my lovelies, it is your big day. It is time to show off your beautiful faces and make us a lot of money.'' I suddenly heard one of the men come in saying. '' And guess what, you will all have your shower for the first time in a while because you have to look all gorgeous for the big money bags that are going to buy you today.'' He said as he began to usher the girls out of the room. When he saw that I was not moving like the other girls were, he moved towards me with a stern expression on his face. '' Are you deaf, or are you just s
Zena's POVForcing my mind not to think about you know who, that was when Noah and his sister walked out of her room.'' Babe, Kelly has something to say to you,'' Noah let out as I drifted my attention to my friend.'' I don't want you to die, but I have to acknowledge that it is your job, even though I do not know why you have such a dangerous job, you are no jame bond,'' Kelly let out and I couldn't help but laugh.''Don't laugh, I am serious,'' Kelly said, rolling her eyes.'' I am sorry, keep talking,'' I let out as I urged her to keep talking.'' Anyways, I know I can't do anything to stop you from going on that mission, but you have to promise me that you will not die, and you will come back and marry my brother because I am going to plan the wedding of the century for you both,'' Kelly said and I smiled.'' Of course, I promise, I will come back. You are both my family, I can't live without you two,'' I answered as I stood up, hugging her.'' Pinke promise,'' Kelly let out and
Zena's POVKelly and Noah looked at me with surprise, as I wondered what was going through their minds.'' What do you mean,'' Kelly asked.'' I am a cop, and it is kind of my job to catch criminals,'' I answered and Kelly rolled her eyes.'' That is not what I meant. I was asking, why should it have to be you? You are the boss now, and being the boss means that you can sit out most of these things.'' Kelly let out.'' This is important, I can not sit out this one,'' I said as I walked back to the couch.'' Is it going to be dangerous,'' Kelly asked.'' I am fighting crime, not going to the supermarket. Of course, it will be dangerous,'' I answered and Kelly groaned.Noah, say something. You can't allow your fiance to go on a dangerous mission,'' Kelly yelled at her brother.'' I know there is nothing I can do to stop her, I know what I was getting myself into when I decided to marry a cop,'' Noah said, and his words made me smile.'' I am not going to stop you, it is your job, and yo
Zena's POVWalking into my apartment, I was met with the smiling face of my fiance, Noah.I was shocked that he was there. He didn't tell me that he was coming over.'' Hi baby,'' I muttered as Noah walked up to me, hugging me.'' Hi you, I missed you,'' he whispered as he placed a kiss on my lips.'' Why are you here? You didn't tell me that you were coming?'' I asked and Noah's face fell into a frown.'' Am I not allowed to visit my soon-to-be wife?'' Noah asked and I nodded.'' Of course, you can. I am just surprised,'' I answered as I put down my bag and walked over to the fridge pouring myself a glass of juice.'' Where is Kelly? Is she not home,'' I asked as I sipped my drink.'' She is in the showers, she will soon be out,'' Noah answered and I nodded as he urged me to take a seat beside me.'' You know I can not wait for you to be my wife,'' Noah whispered into my ears and his words sent shivers down my spine, as I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that I would soon
Zena's POVI walked into my office, and as I sank deep into my chair, my mind raced so much that even though I tried to silence the voices in my head, it wouldn't stop.But I will not allow any of that to bother me now. I have gotten the only lead to catch El Feugo, the one I have been looking for, all these years. This was my time to catch and put an end to him once and for all.'' Boss, what are your thoughts on this? Are we going to shut down that auction?'' Ceila asked and I looked at her with confusion.'' What else are we supposed to do? This is what we wanted, isn't it?'' I asked.'' Yes I know that, but what is our plan? We have gotten the information that we need, so what next?'' Ceila asked me instead of answering my question.'' Ceila, we are going to that auction, and we are going to arrest everyone that we see there, and that includes El Feugo, we have to catch him,'' I answered.'' Okay, but don't you think it will be more complicated than that? You can not go arresting
Zena's POV I blinked profusely as I struggled to keep my sleepy eyes open, the incessant blare of my alarm piercing through the haze of morning drowsiness. With a heavy groan, I reached out, blindly searching for my phone in the dim light of dawn, desperate to silence the relentless noise that shattered the tranquillity of my room. "Zena!" The sharp call of my name jolted me upright, a surge of adrenaline coursing through my veins as I scanned the room for signs of danger. Yet, all I found was Kelly, my ever-energetic roommate, standing in the doorway with a mischievous grin plastered across her face. "What's wrong? Is everything okay?" I asked, my voice tinged with concern as I searched her expression for any hint of distress. Kelly chuckled, her amusement evident as she leaned against the door frame with casual disregard. "Oh, nothing's wrong. I just love seeing you like this," she replied, her tone laced with playful teasing. Relief flooded through me as I realized there was no...
