Ace POV."Chip.""Chip.""Chip.""Chip," she said while looking at the window which was high enough so she couldn't reach for it. I followed her gaze and saw there was a little bird. As if it knew age was trying to communicate with her, it flew to her and landed on her shoulder. I shook my head while I saw what I was looking in front of me."Good my friend. At least I won't be lonely again with you beside me," she said as It landed on my shoulder. "Too bad, I suck at naming things but you are my little birdie," she said and I internally chuckled. Deciding to pay attention to what has brought me here in the first place, I stabbed her upper part of the thigh but she did not winder in pain or even look at me."Adrianna, I am asking you a question!" I whispered-yelled but still I received silence as the answer.Maybe if I took the little bird from her, she would pay attention to me and give me the answers I want. I walked close to her so that I could take it away, but the bird decided t
Ace POV.I walked back to the dining room and started eating. I was aware that they were all looking at me but at this time, I did not care at all."Has she agreed to eat?" Mom asked."No, the food is scattered on the cell's floor," I answered cause I knew there was no way, I was going to escape mom's questions."I really can't blame her though. With your arrogance," Abigail said."I don't care what you think or not. She is an enemy so I will treat her as one," I told them and they looked shocked.Mom had high expectations that I will end up with Adrianna after what she witnessed on the charity ball but a real disappointment doesn't hurt right?Looking at the food with zero interest in not eating since I have lost my appetite, I played with the food. Mixing food pretending to eat it but who could I fool? Everyone here is a grown up and can see through me. Yes, I was hurt. Having high expectations of something or someone always makes one easily get hurt. From the corner of the eye, I s
Ace POV."I don't trust you," I said. "Give me five minutes to talk to her. You can also be present.""Fine, lead the way. Just know one stupid mistake, you are dead," it said and I nodded my head.I stood and walked to the basement. I opened her cell on arrival and she looked up. As much as I wanted her to notice my presence, I saw her looking past me and a smile on her face."What did you do?" It sneered."As you can see, he hurt me," she said with a grin on her face."I can see that Adrianna, all of his men who were guiding the perimeter are already dead. Ivy gave that order cause she knew he had hurt you," it explained."Fantastic but at least you could have left me some little fun," she pouted."Come on, there will be next time," It said and she nodded her head happily."I want to make an offer with you," I said."And what makes you think that we will agree with you?" It said,"If she doesn't then I won't have a choice but to kill her in your presence," I said."You kill her, I k
Adrianna POV.I looked at the room. It was huge but not my room back in my penthouse. I really want to kill them. Who do they think they are?Why did I stab him? Because he was really annoying.I really hate annoying people.I stabbed him the second time to show his family that I don't care what they think or feel. I was in worse pain but they could only see their son. But what did he do to me? To think that I wanted him to fuck me disgusts me. The love and worry I saw in his parents' eyes made me jealous. How I wish I had parents to love me and protect me. Enough with the thoughts.Where is the first aid kit? I forgot to ask him that. I started searching for it and after some minutes, I found it on the top cabinet in the washroom. I cleaned my wounds, treated them and then bandaged them. I walked to the shower so that I could get rid of this awful smell. I really didn't have any clothes or belongings, so I will go shopping tomorrow. As I walked out of the shower with a towel around m
Adrianna POV.I ate silently while Maria washed the dishes. I was trying my best to eat faster so that she can also wash the dishes I am using."Is Miss Adrianna here?" I heard a voice ask for me and I got off the counter. I walked to the living room and saw Ace talking to a man. I have seen him countless times in the company where both Ivy and I buy our electronics."Just back off," I shouted at Ace who had not yet acknowledged my presence. This seems to shock him but nonetheless did want I said."Where is my stuff?" I asked coldly."Ma'am there is the car," the man answered but he was afraid of me."So? Do you expect me to go and carry them inside?" I asked annoyedly."No ma'am. I was just…" I interrupted him."Just go and bring me my orders, you prick if you don't want me to tell your boss about your poor services," I said and he stepped back."Adrianna dear, you are making him afraid," Maria said."As it should be," I said but it came out more closely than I intended it to. I hear
Ace POV.We were just sitting watching what she was doing. After what she did to me, mom believed that I made a mistake by telling her to stay in our house. Abigail has been nice to her even to give her some outfits to wear. We were all shocked to hear her talking and laughing with Maria about the same lame jokes. I came to understand that she is not arrogant and rude to everyone. With how she laughed with the lady who brought her clothes and how rude she was with the guy who brought the electronics just proved me wrong. It made me wonder what was so special about the people she was talking and laughing freely with. The amount of clothes she ordered told us that she was so rich. After Paul searched, we found out that Victor, their dad, was a multi billionaire and he left all his money to them. The fact that Ivy and Adrianna were already billionaires, this made them to be more rich. With the way the both carry themselves, no one can guess they are richer than the Italian Mafia leader.
Adrianna POV.It has been months since I started living with Ace and his family. When I remember how they were always afraid of me, I chuckle. In those months, I haven't stopped assassinating. At the beginning, Ace would always ask me where I was but when I told him it was none of his business multiple times and we weren't friends, he backed off. I feel bad for doing that but it was necessary. I have been spending most of my time with Ivan. That kid is so adorable. His birthday is in a few months and I am planning to gift him what he asked for. I am lying on my bed watching The Originals on the tv. I really love this series. It is one of a kind. Most people prefer Klaus, but I prefer Elijah. Like that man got decency, he feeds then wipes of the blood. He is also calm in every situation even before attacking someone. He is unpredictable. I had my snacks with me since I knew that I would be getting out of this room at dinner time. I have nowhere to go so I better spend it here. After
Adrianna POV.After dinner, I walked back to my room. When I was done taking all the rubbish from the bed, I decided to have a shower even though I had not gone out today. But I will have just a quick one.After half an hour, I was done. I tied my towel around my body and walked out of the bathroom to my room. I could even sleep naked tonight. I am so lazy to get my pajamas. (At midnight.)Who is shouting this early morning?Did they have to ruin my sleep?I pulled myself out of the bed and walked towards my closet. I picked a blue booty short and a black baggy tee-shirt. I later walked out of my room towards where the noise was coming from. "What's with all this noise?" I asked as I entered the living room. I found everyone was awake, apart from Ivan."Ivan…." Abigail tried saying but she was crying."What about him?" I asked now fully awake."He is gone," Mike said and that is when I lost it."What the hell do you mean that he is gone?" I snapped."There was an attack in the house
Adrianna POV."Gosh, I am so sleepy," Ivy exclaimed while we were watching a movie to kill time."Then why don't you just go to bed?" I asked out of sympathy as I looked at her."Have you forgotten that we are waiting for feedback?" she asked as I roll my eyes."Who said that I did? You can decide to go to bed and you would be woken up by the ringtone while he calls," I said.After some minutes I turned back at her and said, "or, since you are a computer expert, why don't you hack into the Russians mafia premises and find out for yourself?" "You are definitely a genius. Why didn't I think of such a thing earlier?I would have avoided staying here for more than five hours while waiting," she said."Okay, let us go and see," I said as I stood up since I also wanted to see what happened."It seems that you are just a hypocrite. You were pretending that you aren't sleepy yet you are," she said."I have a lot of work to do but I can't do it till I know what happened. Whether he succeeded
Adrianna POV."Did you have to choose that car?" Ivy asked angrily making me raise my eyebrow unto her."Why can't you understand it? We told the guy to call after thirty minutes or did you want us to keep loitering around the shop till the time passes and we won't be able to talk to him later on," I said trying my best to keep calm."Oh, sorry I forget," she said in a low tone as a way to show that she was in wrong and was embarrassed making me roll my eyes."Can you text him and tell him to call immediately," I said as I walked towards the grey three-sitter couch."Alright," she said as she took out her phone."I hope that he passed the interview and will be able to always get inside,"she sat on the couch across me."Let us hope for the best," I said as I looked down to see what Jasmine was doing cause she was really disturbing me."Ma..ma," she called out as soon as she realised that I was looking at her.Raising my eyebrows to her as a clue to indicate that she should tell me what
Adrianna POV."Finally, we are going to the streets of America," Ivy said as we got out of the house."Girl, we don't even own a car here and you are already happy about such a petty thing," I said with a chuckle."I know but that don't matter. After all, since we are going for shopping, we will get a car from a car dealer," she said."Then I just hope you have carried your fake id. We don't want to mess anything just because f a shopping which could be done online," I said seriously making her roll her eyes."Do you have to always to a joy killer? Anyways, as for your information, yes, I carried them together with the fake bank cards," she said as she waved her bag in front of me making Jassy grab it making me smile. "Dude, can you let go of your aunty's bag."Jassy looked at her innocently as she hugged it tightly and hidden it in my chest."Who the hell did this kid take after for real?" she asked as she shook her head."Come on, if both of you are going to start your little tantru
Third POV."Dad, why did you send someone to call me here?" a young man asked as he walked in."How is everything at the organisation?" the old man seated behind the desk asked."Everything is fine," he said after a few minutes of silence."Why were you silent? Don't tell me that you are thinking about going against me just the way your uncle did. You better do what I ask for you. We both know that you aren't my only child so I can decide anyone to take the position from me when I am ready to retire," he warned."But dad, haven't I always done what you ask of me? Now you are telling me that you are changing your decision about me been the leader?" The young man asked loudly. Anger evident in his tone."Don't you dare raise your voice at me, young man. You better remember who you are talking to! I am your father!" Elijah snapped."Don't give me that bullshit. You are just a greedy old man who only wants a big piece of a pie that he can get his hands own. May I should remind you that it
Adrianna Pov."There is no need for you to be confused. What we need to do is figure out what we have to do," I said. I looked up and saw that Jasmine was already fast asleep. She tends to sleep when she is bored or has no one to play and talk to."But do you think it is safe?" she asked and I gave a a question mark expression since I couldn't figure out such a silly question.""Don't give me that look. What I mean is that, do you think it is safe for us to deal with them alone? Maybe we could ask your baby daddy's help," she said and I glared at her."I don't need his help," I said firmly."I know that you don't want but look at the positive side girl. Ace has connection with the Spanish and Mexican mafia help it would at least safe since we are all alone since for now we can't trust the people from the organisation," she said making me shake my head in disagreement."Have you forgotten who we are and why each mafia is fighting to get in our good side and back back?" I asked."Its no
Adrianna POV."I think you were right," I told her before feeding Jasmine and taking a bite of my pancake."What do you mean I was right? Why can't you just go direct to the point instead of beating around the bush?" she asked angrily."My dear sister, why can you see a bush in our house?" I asked as I chuckled making her groan."Adrianna!" she yelled making me glare at her as I closed my child's ears cause who knows when she will be turned to a deaf cause of Ivy's daily shoutings."Can you stop shouting for goodness sake?" I asked as I took a breathe."Sorry. Can you know tell me what do you mean by your sentence?" she asked more softly this time as she looked at Jasmine to see whether she is been affected with how she is talking."On that day, Max was not at the organisation headquarters," I said as I looked at my food."What? Now how are we going to find out who the mole is?" she asked in a low tone as if she is in low spirits."Idiot. You know, sometimes I find you clever others s
Adrianna POV.I was waken up by the cries of the baby. Who told me to sleep with her in the first place? Immediately I looked at her, she kept quiet and smiled at me. That little cute smile was enough for me to forget that I was mad at her in the first place. I picked her up and looked whether she had peed on herself. After changing her up, I carried her to the bathroom so that I can clean her up first since it would be a waste of time if I showered then cleaned her. It would force me to back and have a bath."You woke up so early," I said after checking out what was the time. Maybe the fact that she had slept for some many hours made her wake up early. She giggled as she played with my hair."Don't splash water on mama again. If you do, I will end up beating you," I warned her and she sided her eyes. I smiled cause I knew she had understood my words. After making sure that the water temperature was good enough for her, I added her body wash before getting rid of the clothes she was
Adrianna POV.Ivy and I stepped out of the chopper,looking up at the grand mansion that was to be their new home. They had escaped the chaos and danger of their old life, and were now embarking on a new chapter while hoping they won't be discovered where they were hiding. The mansion was the perfect place to hide and start anew. It was isolated, with acres of land surrounding it, and had everything they would ever need. Nonetheless, they didn't know who the American's mafia leader was and their house was not even close to theirs. They knew that they were safe for a while and the place was good for them to bring up Jassy."Wow, it's beautiful," she said, as she looked up at the mansion in awe."It's better than I imagined," I replied, feeling a sense of excitement and relief at the same time.We had arranged the purchase of the mansion months before, and now we were finally here. It was a huge, four-story building with almost twenty bedrooms, five living rooms, an indoor pool, a gym, a
Ace POV.My phone started ringing and I picked it up."Hello, who am I talking to?" I asked "You don't have to know my name. I am just calling you to tell you about Adrianna's whereabouts," the other person said."Fine, tell me, where is she?" I asked " Wait, what do you want in return after telling me that?"He laughed but didn't answer my question. After getting the information about where they were, even if I didn't know whether it was the truth, I opted to go and try my luck. I called my best team and family so that I can inform them since I knew that they also wanted you to find her as soon as possible. Even for my men, most love her since she saved Ivan. They claim that if they got such a donna, they won't have to worry about their families. I really don't know the meaning of that but I am just happy and proud that she's loved by everyone and they are welcoming towards her."Ace, why did you call us all here?" Dad asked."Dad, I received a call from someone who claims to know a
