MATEO

I waited patiently at Rena’s Clubhouse which took Dominic less than fifteen minutes to get here. I had mentally strategized how to get this seller in a quicker way. Renzetti had just sent me his picture which I forwarded to Dominic.

“He is our target,” I told him. “Scammed Renzetti over a treasure worth ten million, but sold it out twenty.”

“What should I do?” Dominic asked.

“I want you to pose as a fake buyer of the same treasure, see what his demands would be. If he says anything less than twenty, get him. If he claims it twenty or more, bring him down. Renzetti needs him alive.”

“When should the task be done?” Dominic asked.

“Tomorrow.” Mateo answered. “I already sent you his photo, and a suspected address. Lily will follow you.”

Dominic’s eyes widened. “Lily?”

I raised an eyebrow. “Got any problem with that?”

“Lily is a lady and things are likely to go south. I wouldn’t want to risk her getting injured or killed.” He explained.

“Lily is part of the De Lucas, and if she needs

    LILYI adjusted the ear pod in my ear which Dominic had given me as a way to communicate with him. Then, I took a deep breath before offering a knock on the wooden door before me.“Who’s that?” Said a wary voice from the inside.“It’s me,” I answered. “I’m here to purchase an artifact.”The man stared at me from the middle hole on the door, before pushing the door open. I clutched my suitcase before me, where the fake dollar note was stored.“Come in,” he permitted.“Thank you.”“It’s been long since a female buyer knocked on my door.” He said, while he put much effort into getting his legs moving. From what Dominic had told me, I was expecting someone younger, about late thirties or so.“My son isn’t back yet, he should have been the one talking business with you.” He said, walking towards a sink. “Mind for something?”I shook my head, “No, thanks. I’m just here to purchase the artifact and I’m gone.”He nodded and poured himself a glass of water instead. “What type of artifact is it

    CLARA"Are you sure about selling your eggs?" the doctor asked as I sat in his cramped office. His voice was calm, almost too calm, as if this was just another routine day for him.I glanced at the stack of paperwork in front of me. My hands were trembling as I grabbed the pen. I didn’t want to be here. This wasn’t what I wanted for myself.But my phone buzzed again in my pocket, and I knew exactly what the message said without even looking."If you do not pay within three days, your aunt’s operation will be canceled."Three days. That was all the time I had. And I barely had enough money for food, let alone the operation fees.I sighed heavily and shoved the phone back into my pocket. Aunt Maggie’s medical bills were piling up, and the hospital wasn’t going to wait for me to figure things out.“No,” I admitted quietly, “I’m not sure about this.”The doctor’s face softened. “You don’t have to go through with it. There’s still time to back out.”Lucaa, sitting next to me, leaned forwar

I hadn’t… I couldn’t… It didn’t make any sense.My thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door.“Clara? ” Lucaa’s voice came in.“I don’t understand,” I called, my voice shaking.She walked in and shut the door behind her, her face was pale. “I need to tell you something. And you’re not going to like it.”I frowned. “What is it?”She hesitated, running a hand through her hair. “The clinic… they made a mistake.”“A mistake?” I repeated, feeling my stomach drop.She nodded, guilt written all over her face. “They did the wrong surgery. You didn’t have an egg retrieval, Clara. You had a fertilization operation.”For a moment, I couldn’t breathe. The words didn’t make sense. “What are you saying, Lucaa? That I… that I’m pregnant because of this mediacal incident?”“Yes,” she said quietly.I stared at her, m

    CLARA It didn’t take long for the whispers to start. “Did you hear about Clara?” someone would say at the market. “She’s pregnant and not even married.” “She used to be so involved with the church,” another would chime in. “What a shame.” I tried to ignore it, but it was hard. The church had always been a place where I felt safe, but now, even the pastor’s wife gave me cold looks. It wasn’t long before I stopped going altogether. Every Sunday morning, I would hear the church bells ringing, and my chest would ache. But I reminded myself that I didn’t need their approval. My focus was on my baby. At my next antenatal check-up, Lucaa smiled as she looked at the screen. “The baby’s growing well,” she said, pointing at the little shape on the monitor. “It’s ten weeks now and stable.” I couldn’t help but smile. Seeing the baby made everything feel real. But then Lucaa’s expression turned serious. “Clara, it’s still not too late to think about your options. You can choose t

The stripper who’d drugged me and stolen my cross necklace, along with... other things, my used condom.My father's “legacy” has shown me how dangerous the bastards can be, so I have always been very careful not to leave any chance.

    CLARA The blinding white light of the hospital room made my head pound as I slowly opened my eyes. My body felt heavy, and my limbs refused to cooperate. The events of last night rushed back, leaving a sinking feeling in my stomach. Before I could sit up, my uncle’s angry voice filled the room. He was pacing, muttering to himself, his face covered with anger. “You’ve ruined everything!” he spat, spinning around to face me. “Pregnant? You’re pregnant?” I didn’t respond. My throat was dry, and my heart was pounding so fast. “For all the years I’ve put up with you, this is how you repay me? You’ve destroyed everything!” His voice grew louder as he stepped closer to the bed. “What are you talking about?” I managed to croak, my voice barely audible. "What am I talking about, huh?" He leaned over me, I could perceive the smell of alcohol reeking from his breath. “I'm talking about this bastard in your womb. You're getting it out as soon as possible." "Uncle Mark..." Be

At this point, Uncle Mark left me completely, taking a step forward with something he called… boldness.“I’m from the Iron Fang Syndicate gang,” my uncle blurted out, trying to sound tough but failing miserably. “You better leave if you know what’s good for you!” The man—Mateo, I remembered—tilted his head slightly, having this unreadable expression. Then he spoke again, his deep voice sending chills down my spine. “This woman owes me,” he said, gesturing toward me. “She’s not going anywhere without my permission.” Uncle Mark shifted his gaze at me, and before my uncle could respond, Mateo took a step forward. His men fanned out, surrounding the room. I could feel the tension that came with it. It was suffocating. “What are you talking about?” my uncle stammered, walking steps backward.

    MATEOI stepped into the underground warehouse; the air was filled with the thick smell of cigar smoke. A long metal table stood in the center, surrounded by powerful men, the kind who controlled the city without ever showing their faces in public. These weren’t ordinary businessmen.These were high-ranking mafia bosses; men who could make a problem disappear with just a single call. I’ve known a few of them from years back, even those who had been in control during the time of my late father.I walked forward, adjusting my cufflinks. No greetings were made, only a brief nod. This wasn’t a place for small talk. It was a place where deals were made and power was tasted.At the center of the table, a velvet-lined case lay closed. The man at the head of the table, Renzetti, tapped it once before slowly lifting the lid. Inside was a dagger, wrapped in silk. “This,’ Renzetti said, staring at their faces. That look was just enough to tell the matter yet to be discussed was a serious one. “I

    CLARAI was just stepping out of the clinic when I saw it—Lucaa’s hand striking Dominic’s face in a sharp slap. Gasps filled the air, and I felt my face heat up with embarrassment. People were watching, their eyes shifting between Lucaa and Dominic. I expected him to react, maybe get angry, maybe say something—but just like always, he remained calm. He didn’t blink, he didn’t flinch. He just stood there, staring at her. Lucaa, on the other hand, looked furious. One hand was clenched into fist, and the other pointed at his face. And I could tell she wasn’t done. I didn’t think twice. I rushed to her before she could do anything worse. Or worse, get the devil in him speaking.“Lucaa, stop,” I said firmly, stepping between them. She was breathing heavily, her face red with anger. I didn’t know what had happened between them, but this wasn’t the place for it. People were already whispering. I gently grabbed her arm and pulled her to the side. “Come with me. Let’s talk.” She resisted

    CLARAI couldn’t tell Lily, or she’d imagine I’ve been thinking too much. Or probably wanted the worst for her. I sat up on the bed, and just as usual, Mateo wasn’t on bed which has somehow become a normal thing to me. Not like I expected more than that, don’t get me wrong.Just then, the door opened and he walked in.Speaking of the devil.“You’re awake,” he said casually, not sparing me a glance. “Do you remember anything from last night?”I kept a face that told how confused I was even though I knew what he was talking about. Telling him about the dream was absolutely the least thing I ever wanted.What would he think of me? What would he say?He’d assume my uneven relationship with Lily had warranted me to have such scary dreams like that. No.I shook my head. “I don’t remember anything.”He paused, staring at me for a second. “Really?” He asked like he had some doubts about my reply.I nodded, still keeping the serious face that told how much I wasn’t lying even though I was.“We

    CLARAI continued stitching her wound, trying to focus on getting it perfectly done, but my thoughts drifted back to what had happened in the garden earlier. The memory of her slap and her hurtful words replayed in my mind like an annoying echo. Without meaning to—or maybe just a little intentionally—I pierced the needle into the wrong spot. “Ow!” Lily screamed, jerking her arm. “Be careful!” I looked up at her, acting like I didn’t notice what I did. “If you’d stayed home, none of this would’ve happened.” Her face twisted into a frown, and she glared at me. “So, it’s a crime now to hang out with friends?” she snapped. “Yes,” I said, keeping my tone calm, but I knew she could hear the hint of anger in my voice. “When it’s this late, it’s a crime.” She huffed and looked away. “How was I supposed to know something bad was going to happen? Don’t blame me for that.” I looked at Lily for a moment, trying so much to hold back the urge to yell at her. “I’m not blaming you,” I said, sti

    CLARAAfter the men left the house to celebrate Dominic’s return, I felt a strange sense of relief. The house felt quieter, though not exactly peaceful. I stayed in my room, locking the door behind me. I didn’t want to risk running into Lily again, not after everything that had happened. From my room, I could still hear her voice echoing faintly from downstairs. She was on a phone call, and by the sound of it, she seemed annoyed or in a hurry. I tried not to care, but it was hard to block out her voice completely. A few minutes later, I heard the sound of a car engine starting. Curious, I peeked through the curtains and saw Lily driving out of the estate. For some reason, my stomach churned. Where could she be going? And why did I even care? I sighed, annoyed at myself for being so nosy, but curiosity got the better of me. I left my room and went to find Christopher. I found him in the kitchen, wiping down the counter. He looked up when he saw me. “Miss Clara,” he greeted politely

    CLARALily didn’t say another word. She just turned and walked away, like standing for the next second would cost her so much. I stood there, frozen, trying to keep the tears from falling, but it was useless. My emotions bubbled up, and before I knew it, I was crying.I had told myself to endure her hatred. To spend the rest of the days patiently, hoping upon hope that one of these days, things would change for the good between the both of us. But today, she gave me a million reasons why I shouldn’t wait any longer. It was clear how much she hated me to the core, and no matter how hard I tried to understand her, I just couldn’t.Maybe we were never meant to understand each other. Maybe. Just maybe, it’s me overthinking that one day, she’ll get to understand me better than I thought.I clenched my fists, my voice shaking as I yelled, “I hate you! I hate you so much!” I didn’t care if Lily heard me or not—I just needed to let it out.By nighttime, my cheek still stung from her slap, but
