Seeing the red light finally going back to green, we were flying down the streets again. Eventually when we got to the bar Vito spoke of, at the door, a bouncer stood guard and upon seeing Vito, stepped to the side and let us in.Well that was easy.."I thought you said the owner was a friend of Hugo?" I said and Vito shrugged."You know not everyone's friends are really their friends" he said simply. “Well I trust you know not to drink anything" Vito said as we took a seat at the bar."Not planning to anyways" I said and took a look around. It wasn't one of those loud bars where there was a bunch of people standing around, talking, drunk and misbehaving. This bar was more chill although it was packed full and the music was at a decent rhythm."Hugo is supposed to be here?" I questioned."Not so sure, but I know this is a place he likes to frequent. His cousin is the owner so if he's not here, I guess his cousin is going to be our next target" Vito said as he checked his watch.Looking

**Present**"Alright all done! You can pay now, in cash please!" Vegas said, holding his hand out and I looked at him with a raised brow."How about I crack some fingers so I can return the favor?" I said while he let out a nervous laugh."Just joking, there's no need to be so serious all the time Juno” he said and I sighed. I was so exhausted and all I wanted to do right now was snuggle in my bed and sleep this fatigue off but each day here is always a working one.After we were all done, Vegas and I walked out of the room, deciding to go get something to eat, but when I stepped out of the room, I bumped into someone.I did feel an extra bit of force behind it, which made me fall to the ground.Looking up, I saw Frankie, one of the guards around, standing above me with that usual menacing look on his face. I did not feel like dealing with this right now. Sure I did get dirty looks and a few shoves from a majority of the people around here but at least they never actually tried to ki
Shadow Heiress Chapter 15 - Forging Bonds
After the last encounter I had with Frankie I had to come clean with Vito and tell him how my stay so far had been and it was time to come clean about my identity to the other guys. Which I assumed he had done.I couldn't keep on hiding, I needed to live my life as I pleased, and getting on this deal with Vito was the very first step I had to take.Walking down the halls was a bit different today, I didn't get as many disgusted looks and someone even waved to me. I thought I was in the twilight zone for a moment, that's how weird it was.I was actually more used to the nasty looks I got.It's not as if it bothered me, I was typically always with Vito and these people wouldn't act that way in front of him.Honestly, I was hardly ever alone around here, it was an upgrade compared to where I was coming from. Vegas and Tony were being friendly or trying to be on Vitos’ orders and the man himself constantly wouldn’t let me be always asking me to do things for him or with him. He treated me

"The only way you two are leaving this room is with a bullet in your head except you explain to me how exactly Hugo got out" Vito stated furiously, his patience running thin and I could see he was trying very hard to hold himself.If this is what his retained outrage looked like, I'd hardly want to see it lose. The two guards who had been on watch at the time currently looked like they were about to piss their pants and honestly, I don't blame them.Pete, Tony, Vegas, and I stood to the side watching the interrogation go down."We have no idea how this happened, boss...." one of them mumbled."No idea? Sleeping on duty? Do I overwork you to the point where your bodies are so tired you can't bear to keep your eyes open?" Vito lashed out in a quick streak, eyes sharp and deadly. It left no room for complaints or even explanation and it didn't look like the two had any reason for their actions anyways as they shook in fear.“Vito..." Pete started but he stopped when Vito glared at him."

Surprising myself, we got there in one piece, I realized I wasn't a shit driver."Okay, we're here finally. You can release your breath now" Vegas chuckled"It's only the afternoon, I doubt he's in," I said, checking the time on the phone that was provided to me by my boss. Only his and the others' contacts were in here but if I needed anything, I just had to call him."Well, we can just go in and see. If he isn't, we wait til he is" Vegas said."So we're just gonna walk in?" I asked as Vegas set up his gun."That's the only option we have right now. Besides, if we burst in hot it won't give Pierre any time to run" Vegas said.The door was already open, so clearly someone was there. So quietly, Vegas and I snuck in and as we stepped in further we heard voices. Staying in the shadows, we peeked just the tiniest bit to see who was in the bar. There were about five men, and one of them had to be Hugo's cousin."Who the fuck are you?" A voice from behind frightened us and a dude gaped at
Shadow Heiress Chapter 18 - Espionage
A knock waking me up from my sleep was presumably one of the few things in my life that have given me a scare. I was given a few days off to take care of myself after the last operation which I was getting the best of.Vegas being on the other end of the door proceeded to throw a bodysuit at me explaining that he and I had a 'top secret errand' as he put it, to go on.Though for whatever reason I was told to just say we were going to purchase some stuff which had run out in the mansion honestly I wasn't sure who would buy that, considering it wasn't my duty to do that.Whatever, I guess this was what I had to go through to pay for my fathers’ sins.Vegas and I were in the lobby getting ready to leave when Tony and Pete came through the door, returning from wherever they had gone to."Well what's the occasion?" Tony finally asked."None of your damn business" Vegas grumbled which made Tony shrug in return"We just going to get a refill of stuff exhausted in the house" I explained, hopi
Shadow Heiress Chapter 19 - Family Ties
**VITO’s POV**HUGO.This man was beginning to piss me off for real, I had tried to be calm about this whole thing so as not to bother the others but I could feel my perseverance sinking with every problem that man has caused me.What exactly gave this fellow the right to decide the fate for me? For the others as well? To die by his poorly organized trap? What was this all about, knowing the world we belong to, I should have known it wasn't going to be all easy.Thinking about it all had my fingers itching to pull the trigger and lay a bullet right between his greedy-filled eyes"Vito" hearing Juno's soft voice calling out to me brought me back to reality."We found the kid. A young boy, Alex, he can't be much older than ten" Juno said."Parents?" I asked and Juno shook her head."He isn't giving them away. As scared as he is, he doesn't want to see anything happen to them" she said and I sighed."Bring him here," I said and Juno nodded before leaving.Massaging my eyes, I sat up in m
Shadow Heiress Chapter 20 - Inkling
"Get them in" Vito Instructed, implying to Pierre and Thomas, Hugo’s cousin and friend who were tied and blindfolded.We were on our way to the warehouse where I had been kept captive some time ago, we were to meet with Mr Corentin and Hugo, and some other of their men to discuss the rising issues at hand and also get information about Lucas’ demise. Knowing Vito, he probably wouldn't accept anything less than having Hugo in his custody, which is likely why he had us capture those men."Boss is presently not in a good mood so please let's play along nicely," Tony said monotonously as he shoved the two of them into the waiting van."Vegas, you and the others are to lay low during the meeting. If anything goes down, you know the drill" Vito said while we all nodded before hopping into our respective rides."Wanna drive?" Vegas asked me in a teasing voice, wiggling his eyebrows as he held up the key to me."I'd pass," I grumbled, walking hastily behind Vito to his car. Pete, Vito, and I
