Third POV

The two men went straight into an inner chamber, sitting across each other in a dimly lit room. The older looking man with a full grown beard around his face with different tattoos passed a cigarette to Enzo.

“I don't take this.” Enzo declined politely, pushing back the box to him.

The older man nodded, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "Suit yourself," he said, lighting the cigarette himself. He took a long drag, exhaling slowly as he leaned back in his chair.

"So, Enzo," he began, his voice low and gravelly. "I heard you've been having some issues with the customs officials."

Enzo's expression remained neutral, but his eyes narrowed slightly. "Just a minor setback," he said. "Nothing I couldn't handle."

The older man chuckled, a low rumble that seemed to come from deep within his chest. "I'm sure you handled it just fine," he said.

    Third POVEnzo got into his car, zooming off the dusty road, into the tiled road. He kept his gaze ahead of him, his mind reeling with a series of questions.Few hours later he finally drove into Cassiel's estate, pulling up at the garage as the guards on standby rushed towards him.“What's going on?” He asked them.“We don't know but the boss drove out in a hurry some hours back,” they explained.“And you didnt care to ask?” Enzo asked irritably, losing his tie as he kicked one of the guards in his groin. The guard fell to his knees, groaning in pain as he held his crotch in his hands.“We wouldn't dare stop him to ask, sir,” one of them tried to explain but with a wave of finger from Enzo, the guard stopped his running mouth from talking immediately.Enzo pulled out his phone and tried Cassiel's number multiple times but the call wasn't going through. He went back into his car, pulling out a small device from the back from his chair. He punched in some numbers but it just vibrated.

    Third POVEnzo opened the lid of the energy drink Cassiel had passed to him, gulping down the content in a go. “I want to hear everything, leave no details out.” Enzo said as he faced Cassiel, his eyes on his every movement.“Is that meant to be a command?” Cassiel asked as he closed his computer.“I wouldn't dare boss” Enzo said, correcting his tone and posture as he sat diligently to listen.“The system beeped that an intruder had entered Julian's room with something deadly, I opened the camera but it was blurred, I couldnt see anything and that was why I put a call across to you.” Cassiel explained.“But I received a signal from you and it was from where I was at the moment that your call came through,” Enzo said, trying to decipher the meaning of the situation.“That might be a system error.” Cassiel suggested saying he never sent a signal to Enzo.“So did you drive recklessly down to the hospital and that led to the accident or am I being too forward?” Enzo asked calmly.“You ar

    Third POVAs Cassiel stepped out of the room, Enzo quickly dialed a number on his phone, his fingers moved swiftly over the screen. He waited for the person on the other end to pick up while his eyes remained fixed on Cassiel's retreating figure."Yes, sir?" a voice answered on the other end of the line."Get our men in position around the penthouse," Enzo ordered, his voice low and authoritative. "We have some... guests arriving soon, and I want to make sure they're... well taken care of." He added slowly.The person on the other end of the line nodded, even though Enzo couldn't see them. "Yes, sir. I'll get the men in position immediately."“You know what I mean right?” Enzo asked to be sure the man is on the same page as him.“Yes sir,” the other party responded immediately.“I want everything to be in order as the boss is coming over and secondly send Dia's team to the location I’ll send to you right this instant.” Enzo ordered.“Roger that, sir,” the other party responded.Enzo

    Third POVWith a swift motion, Cassiel reached out and grabbed the man's arm, his grip like a vice. The man's eyes widened in pain as Cassiel's fingers dug deep into his skin."You see, I have ways of making people talk," Cassiel said, his voice dripping with menace. "And I'm not going to stop until I get what I want." He continued, thrusting the knife in his hand into the man's thigh cutting open his flesh.The man's face contorted in pain, his eyes welling up with tears. Cassiel's expression was unyielding, his eyes glinting with a cold determination."Let's try this again," Cassiel said, his voice low and menacing. "Who is your employer? And where is Isabella?" Cassiel asked with a devilish smile on his face.The man's voice was barely audible, his words tumbling out in a rush. "It was… it was Renata. She's the one who's been hiding Isabella."Cassiel's eyes narrowed, his grip on the man's arm tightening. "Go on, give me new information that can save your lives," he said, his voice

    Third POVCassiel got to the back seat of the G-wagon Enzo had driven him in earlier while Enzo got into the driver seat.“Should I send men on Marco's trail?” Enzo asked, disrupting the silence between them while Cassiel shook his head.“I don't need to find him any more, I have something that will make him crawl on his knees and beg for mercy” Cassiel said, laughing menacingly as he focused his gaze to the ipad in front of him.“Where are we going first, boss?” Enzo asked, revving the car engine back to life as it roared out loudly, the full lights shining into the dark street.“Drop me off at home, I have some things you need to take good care of before the arrival of our guests,” Cassiel replied, throwing some mint gum into his mouth.Enzo nodded his head in response, controlling the steering wheel as the car sped out of the street into the main road. Enzo kept on glancing at the rear mirror, looking at Cassiel. Cassiel noticed his intense gaze on him and gave a short smile.“I a

    Third POVEnzo's eyes locked onto hers as she stepped back, fear vivid on her face. He moved swiftly, reaching the door before she could even touch the handle. His hand rested on the door, blocking her escape."Don't even think about it," Enzo said, his voice low and even. "You're not going anywhere until we finish our business."The woman's eyes darted around the room, searching for an escape route or a way to calm the situation. Enzo's gaze remained steady, his expression unreadable."Let's talk," Enzo suggested, his voice firm but controlled. "I’m quite sure you know that you have some explanations to do right?” Enzo asked calmly, twirling the knife in his palm around for her to see.The woman swallowed hard, her eyes fixed on Enzo's face. She nodded slowly, her voice barely above a whisper. "Okay, let's talk but you aren't going to harm me right?." She asked gently, her hands covering her body as she spoke.“That depends on the way you respond to my question,” Enzo said, stabbing

    Julian’s POVThe air outside Cassiel Morelli’s estate was thick and stifling. Even with the cool night breeze brushing against my skin, I could feel the weight pressing down on my chest. The iron gates had locked behind me with a resounding clang, cutting off any chance of escape—not that I had anywhere else to go.I stood at the entrance, my fists clenched at my sides as the butler led me through towering double doors. The mansion swallowed me whole, drowning me in the feel of wealth that felt suffocating rather than impressive. Marble floors gleamed under dim chandeliers, casting ghostly reflections of me as I moved forward.I hadn’t been in a place like this in a long time. Not since my world had collapsed.Not since Cassiel Morelli had helped destroy it.The butler stopped at another set of doors, polished wood carved with intricate designs. He opened them with a slight bow, stepping aside.I squared my shoulders and walked in.Cassiel was waiting.He sat in a high-backed leather

    Cassiel‘s POVI watched from the floor-to-ceiling window of my study, my gaze locked onto Julian’s retreating form.I had expected resistance but what I hadn’t expected was the hesitation.Julian was too proud to beg. Too stubborn to make desperate bargains—at least, that’s who he had been. But the man who had walked into my house tonight was different.I had seen it in his eyes. The exhaustion. The quiet, bone-deep fear.It had been… satisfying.A long time ago, he had tried to put me in handcuffs. Had stood in courtrooms and called me a criminal, a parasite feeding off society. And now, he was here, seeking me out like a lifeline.Poetic.I turned from the window as Enzo stepped into the study.“You let him leave?” He asked.I poured myself another drink. “He’ll be back.”Enzo crossed his arms. “You sure about that?”I took a sip, savoring the burn. “He doesn’t have another choice.”Enzo exhaled sharply. “And if he does?”I set my glass down, my expression turning cold.“Then I’ll

One who takes a very... dim view of people who get in his way." He explained, slowly taking out his phone attempting to make a call.The customs official nodded hastily. "I- I think we can find a way to resolve this issue, sir. Let me just... check on a few things."Enzo leaned back in his chair, a satisfied smile spreading across his face. "Good. I thought you'd see things my way. Now, let's get down to business and clear those containers."The customs official quickly got to work, his fingers flying across the keyboard as he frantically tried to resolve the issue.

"All containers arrived as scheduled, and none were tampered with or missing,” he said, Enzo released the breath he didn't realize he was holding.Before he could finally have his peace, the caller dropped another bombshell.“However, there's been an issue with the customs clearance process. It seems there's a discrepancy in the documentation, and the authorities are holding up the shipment." He announced in a low voice.Enzo's grip on the phone tightened.
