Natasha's pov“So… are you going to tell me what’s going on between you and alejanro or..? I asked Olivia as soon as I fell into steps with her again. She glanced at me and just as quickly averted her gaze. Something was definitely going on between these two but what exactly? Olivia was not one to act shy or avoid a question. She was the most straight forward person I had ever met in my life and that was saying something, coming from someone that grew up in the mafia world.“Nothing is going on. What makes you think anything is going on?” she rushed out to say as if confused on what to say.“well, for starters that was an awkward interaction.’ I said pointing at the spot we had been in just a second ago.Olivia glanced at me again but it was just as fleeting as before. "And why the hell was he staring at you like that?"“I don’t know what you mean. That was a very normal interaction. Stop reading into things more than you need to.”I raised a surprised brow at her but let the issue
Natasha's pov.I was not a big fan of Vincent but I didn't hate him either. In fact in another world, we'd be friends. He was funny sometimes and had a calm demeanor about him that commanded respect. But ever since he snitched on me to Lorenzo about Philip, we'd had bad blood. Sort of.But hearing that Alex was his brother. Somehow tore me apart in that moment. I hadn't felt bad about a kill in a very very long time. I had gotten too good at blocking my emotions to even be. But hearing that I had killed Vincent's brother. We were by no means friends but I respected him at the very least, made me incredibly sad not mention a little scared.A violent shiver ran down my spine and a feeling of dread washed over me.I didn't want it to be true for some reason. How could it even be true? They looked nothing alike…Vincent looked very much Italian while Alex looked like a German or Russian military man.This was bad. This was really, really bad.If Alex was really Vincent's brother who wa
Natasha's pov. I watched the car just as closely as the Uber driver carrying me did. I didn't want to lose them somehow. Especially since there was light traffic. It also helped that the driver wasn't talking much and just following my initial order like a guard dog. He was a younger man than the one that had brought me here and his eyes were fixed on the target.The sky was starting to cloud up indicating that it was about to rain. I could already perceive the calming smell of water mixed with clay and sand that usually came with the indication of rain, Petrichore was what it was called.I knew we would get there before it started to pour but I was still apprehensive. Rain would put a damper on my plans.I didn't have an umbrella with me and the last thing I wanted was to be caught under the rain during a mission.The minivan finally slowed down after fifteen minutes of driving and drove into the parking lot of a hospital. I immediately told the Uber driver to stop me just a few
Natasha's POV I blinked at the redhead, surprised that I wasn't in trouble. "Come on, I'll introduce you to her. I doubt she'll remember who you are. I tried talking to her about this the other day but she doesn't seem to remember you but then she oesnt remember a lot of people.The redhead said, for some reason, I had completely forgotten her name."Oh really? That's terrible.""It is. Although you can't stay long. She's about to start her phisotherapy session."That's sad, I was hoping we could catch up."I said with a frown."I wish that too but she gets random anxiety attacks sometimes." She paused and raised a single finger, telling me to give her a second."Hi… Cece. I have a friend here to see you today.""Oh?" She asked, looking up at the redhead."Yes, remember the girl I told you about last week?""Yee, I do.""Well,. she's here."The redhead smiled.Cilia glanced behind and scanned me with her beautiful blue eyes. For the first time I noticed a scar on her chin that seeme
Natasha's POV It can't be her.I told myself as I stood frozen in place.I was too afraid to turn around.Too scared to move.Maybe if I continued walking, she'd think I'm someone else.I began moving again but I hadn't taken a total of five steps when I felt someone's hand grab me by the shoulders."I Know it's your Vera!" The voice said again. Instinctively, I turned around and grabbed her by the throat."If you do anything stupid, I'll fucking end you." I whispered, even though I was shaking inside.How the fuck did she even recognize me?"I'm not going to." She choked out as she pried her hands off.I searched her eyes for any malicious intent. Satisfied with what I saw, I let go of her reluctantly."What the hell are you doing here?" I whisper-shouted as I scanned her from head to toes.She looked different but was definitely herI thought I had left her behind, she was supposed to be in my past along with the others.What the hell was she doing here?"I can't believe it's yo
Natasha's pov."Natasha!"Alejandro and Oliva yelled in surprise at the same time immediately they noticed me come in."Hello." I waved at the both of them, glancing between the both of them in clear confusion."You are back early. I thought it would take you a little longer." Olivia stated, her voice a little too high pitched."Yeah… turned out the meeting ended early. I didn't think I'd be meeting one of the administrative staff in our dorm." I stated, eyeing Alejandro.The room stood in awkwardness as Olivia tried to avoid eye contact with me."Well, I'll see myself out." Alejandro said after several painful moments of awkward silence and scurried out of the room. For a man that was at least 6'2, it was a funny sight to behold."It's not what you think!" Olivia began as soon as we were alone."It doesn't matter what I think," I said even though I so wanted badly to say 'im proud of you.' she'd been stuck on Luca for longer than anyone deserved to be and while I think everyone sh
Natasha's POV "You look ridiculously gorgeous!" Olivia squealed behind me as we both stared at my reflection."You think so?" I asked as my eyes scanned the detail of the red dress I was wearing.I looked so good, I wasn't even sure I was staring at me. I did not remember the last time I looked this good.It had maybe at least five years now or more.l wished my sister was here. She always told me I looked great in dresses and red.She'd totally squeal in delight. She'd been trying to get me off ripped jeans and tiny strapped tops for most of my life.The dress was long, reaching my ankles. It was split from mid thighs down and had rhinestones draping the top half of the dress.A diamond studded necklace sat on my neck.I had abold but soft make uolook going on. My eyes were smoky but silver smoky and my lips a maroon red.My hair was up too."Think? Can't you see yourself through the mirror? You are gorgeous.""Thank you. I feel gorgeous."It was Friday night, the day of the part
Natasha's POV My eyes bugged out of their socket as I recognized that the woman on the blue dress was none other than Poison.What on earth was she doing here?!How did she even get invited to an exclusive party like this and who the hell was she holding on to?All of these questions plagued my mind as I watched her laugh with the man holding her."You okay?"I heard the faint voice of Lorenzo penetrate through my disturbing thoughts. My ears were ringing and so was every part of my body.Was she here for me? Had she lied when she'd seen me outside the hospital yesterday? Had someone sent her to kill me? Luca maybe?"Natasha?" I felt Lorenzo's hands on either side of my cheeks almost at the same time I heard him say my name."Yeah?" I looked up at him, slowly r alizing the world around me again."You okay?" He asked, his green eyes softening as thy stared down at me."Yeah, I'm fine. Very fine actually."I plastered a smile on my face."Are you sure? Because you look like you've just
