VALENTINA

I close my eyes. The vein in my neck throbs against the tip of the bloodied sharp knife.

He is going to kill me.

“ If you attack someone, you have to do it right, Darling because if you fail and give them a chance, they won’t hesitate before slicing your pretty throat open. ” He whispers against my lips.

The tip of the knife presses further into my neck but never pierces my skin. He doesn’t want to kill me.

I open my eyes, meeting his gaze from up close. He looks like the epitome of perfection, someone without any flaws when he is so near.

For a moment, I forget where I am standing. I forget about the knife held against my neck, I forget about the seduction and hidden serious look in his eyes.

I see him for what he is. The emotions flickering in his eyes, the raw desire and the painful ne

    VALENTINAI don’t know for how long I cried. I told him everything, almost everything and then cried for him too.Can I do anything worse than this?I sigh, now laying over my bed. He left earlier, saying he had to be somewhere else. I don’t know why but he looked baffled, as if there was something he couldn’t understand and didn’t like either or as if he had to make a decision he didn’t like.I release another heavy breath and stare up at the ceiling. My hand reaches out to my dry lips, my fingers tracing the outline. The touch of his lips still lingers on mine.I never knew a man’s touch could feel so good. I am only familiar with the agony the men in my life brought me.Pulling my hand down, I purse my lips and continue drilling holes in the ceiling.The loud ding noise of the main door opening breaks me out of my trance. I sit up in the bed.My heart begins to beat fast. Fixing my eyes at the door, I wait for Agent Vita—no—Matteo to come to my room.Time passes but he doesn’t come

I nibble on my lower lip, a nervous habit.I breath through my nose, thinking ways to avoid the upcoming torture.He opens the Attaché briefcase with his dull eyes inspecting it’s contents. I can’t see it because the open compartment of the Attaché Briefcase is efficiently blocking my view.My fingers curl up with curiosity and fear.Out of a sudden, he glances at me and then looks down at the contents of the Attaché Briefcase again.Is he deciding on the tool to use for torturing me?

He let me pee.When I told him that I wanted to pee, he gazed at me strangely for a good long minute and then looked away.It was awkward and embarrassing.He unlocked my handcuffs and lead me to the washrooms down the white slick clean corridor without any nasty remarks or threats.While he made me walk in front of him, he walked behind me with steady steps. I could feel my back burning due to his piercing gaze being fixed at it.Now as I stand beside the door to the washroom knowing he is right outside, I am thinking about his options.They are going to torture me until I speak up.

    VALENTINAAfter I agreed upon helping them, Agent Vitali lead me to the room which is right beside that interrogation room.He asked me to rest and he went to talk to the seniors or whatever.Where he has locked me this time is a plain room.White room.A white bed. White sheets. White floor. White attached door.This is unbelievable. I am beginning to despise white color.I sigh out and jog toward the bed before laying down over it. I have been unconscious for a whole day and when I woke up, I was already in that interrogation room, handcuffed to the table.Before that…I was out on shopping. I was allowed to go shopping only once in three months and many guards followed me around.I don’t even know how they managed to kidnap me after dodging all those guards.I just remember going inside the lingerie store’s dressing room. Before I could undress completely, another man

    VALENTINA I don’t know how much time has passed already, considered that there is no clock in this room. They haven’t given me any food either while hours must have passed since Agent Vitali left me here. I sigh to myself while I stay seated on the bed. Raising my hand, I rub my temples, tiredness overcoming my body and mind. I need to sleep, but I can't bring myself to sleep, because I am confined in a place where people only care about what they want or need. Even if I am helpless, I must stay wide awake so I know who tried to harm me and why in general. Suddenly, the door to the white dull room opens after hours and the Agent who-I-don’t-know the name of…steps inside leisurely. His eyes land on mine and he pauses beside the door. I feel a wave of fear passing through my body for a moment, but then the utter calmness claims my mind again. “ Having fun? ” He lifts his right eyebrow in amusement and utters. This one se

    VALENTINA Just what is this Agent trying to prove by acting so unprofessional with me? He wants to get the truth out of me by using seduction? That’s the worst thing he can do…to me and to himself too. I can get angry at him for doing this repeatedly, but I can’t deny the fact that his seduction works on me a great deal. “ You look hot like this. ” He whispers in the same deep voice to me and the fact that I can’t see how he is looking at me right now makes me want to hide somewhere. “ Do you seduce all female captives like this? Is this your speciality? ” I shoot back, goosebumps rising over my skin. Why do I bother to reply to him every single time in the first place? Perhaps, he is too good at his job and that’s why he is so famous among everyone. Some fear him, some like thorn clan and me. Some need him, like this agency and many more agencies do. “ It’s just you. ” He replie

The whole city is drowning in light and it feels like darkness has no home down there.But, I know what resides down there. It’s anything, but light and something like the evil darkness.Blood, Gore and Coldness exists in every corner of this city. It’s because this is the Thorn Clan territory.

    VALENTINATaking his words to be true, I grab the plate from him. I am still suspicious, but I guess there is no harm in eating the sandwiches if this is what he wants me to do.I grab the first sandwich and start eating it. My eyes meet his dark eyes occasionally. The tension between us is dangerous.The way he looks at me always does strange things to me. I want to lean in, touch him, want to know what he truly feels and thinks and needs.Agent Vitali pushes his hand forward and places my stray hair behind my ear. My chewing mouth pauses as I find it difficult to move for a second.His thumb slides down my cheek and halts at the corner of my lips. My heart does somersault in my chest, wanting to break out of the ribcage and land near his feet if given the chance.“ What do you want so bad? ” His voice is a mere sensual whisper, a question he is asking to himself

I want to see the outside world. ” I gulp and reply, my eyes still staring in his.It’s not completely a lie, but it’s not the whole truth either.His grip on my waist and then hair loosens up. In his eyes, I see a unique emotion which can easily pass as pity.My gut twists, but I don’t back down. I can’t let his pity get to me when I am so close to getting what I want from him.“ You just want to run away, Valentina. But, you can’t. ” He takes a step back from me and his hands leave me at once.I loose the breath I held back for a while.H

I can’t tell what the hidden meaning behind this offer is.“ Okay. ” I nod my head in a trance.He watches me until I leave the bedsheets and place my hands in my lap. I realise how hot my face is and it must be turning red, giving away every emotion he made me feel just now.“ Good. ” He smiles lazily and gets up from the bed before walking out of the room that I call mine, temporarily.Just as he leaves, I take in huge intake of air. Then, I release the breath through my nose slowly.Something is wrong with him and it’s confirmed now. Everyone is playing their own games here and they all have their own goals to achieve just like me.What do I want in all this madness going around me? I have to make it clear to myself.Agent Vitali made my heart flutter today. Even if I

I think, sitting down on the bed.Did Agent Vitali really manage to get my mind off the main topic? We were talking about Caelum.Caelum said that I haven’t told anything to Agent Vitali when I have already told him many things. What’s happening? I don’t understand.As I think about it too deeply, I can only think of two reasons for Caelum to be behaving this way.Number One. Caelum and Agent Vitali are playing games with me so they can confuse me and eventually make me talk about all the other things that I know.And Number Two. Agent Vitali kept all the information to himself instead of reporting it to the Agency.The second option is absurd.
