Clancy's POV "Do you think I'm joking?" I was going to lose my patience soon and do something I'm not supposed to do.Now Rosita was the only one I knew who could tell me the information I wanted but more importantly, killing her wasn't an option.I won't even get the opportunity to avenge my sister because the full force of the syndicate will be unleashed on me.She knew this and that's just why she can act fearless around me.Not even a gun to her face would make her flinch."What the fvck do you want?" I gritted my teeth, grabbed her by the arm and raised her from the bed."What I want is something you're refusing to give me" She placed her fingers on my shoulder but I slapped them off."I can give you the name, Clancy. He is not someone you can't take on with your current influence. You should know that already. The high ranking members of the high table are like gods of this world. I know what it feels like to have your loved one killed by one of them. Don't you think you need m
Sofia's POV "Here... I got this for you" Giada slid a cup of coffee across the table in my direction and I raised my head from the screen of my laptop to see her."Are you alright?" She inquired with a concerned look and I first responded with a shrug of my shoulders."Of course I am""You just canceled our meeting with the richest man in Los Angeles so don't tell me you're alright. But then, you know best and you should take enough rest. C'mon, I'll drive us to the hotel" She beckoned at me."Give me a few more minutes, G" I returned my gaze to the screen and stared endlessly at the reply I had given to Sarah's message on the dark web.I was waiting patiently for her response but it wasn't coming forth.Just when I made to close the system, her message pinged in and I had my seat again.'Hey, I was away for a while'I sighed and typed my response quickly. 'That's fine. Are you free now? I just need you to answer a couple of questions for me''Okay. Shoot' Her reply was instant.'The
Clancy POVI guess I knew this wasn't right from the beginning.It never was.Everything sane about me must have died the moment Sofia left me and I seize to care about whatever madness goes on in me.If I have to go out of my way to get vengeance, I'll do just that.There's nothing left of me that matters."Yeah! Fvck me, that's just the way I want it!" She moaned insanely as I pounded her recklessly from behind but my mind was absent.I felt nothing for her.She was simply a tool for me to get what I wanted.My hand was wrapped around her hair and I had her face pressed against the bed.There was no holding back as I released all of my frustration on her but it turned out that was just what she wanted.To be handled recklessly.Such an insane woman.I finally climaxed and collapsed to the bed with her body pressed against mine.For a minute, I was overwhelmed with the guilt of betraying Sofia for the second time but the next minute, I felt nothing anymore.We're not together anymore
Sofia's POV"What are you smiling about? Did you find a cute little boyfriend down here?" Giada's tone was a little suspicious as she spoke to me from the front seat where she was driving.I lifted my head from the screen of my phone and snorted coldly, "Don't say nonsense, Giada. I'm a mother of four, not some Italian sugar mama. Moreover, I'm still in my twenties"She laughed hysterically, "You are the richest woman in the world so there's definitely no restriction to you. What do you think?""I'll send you back to Tuscany" I threatened her playfully."Alright, Queen. You got all the power" Giada became quiet and concentrated on her driving.I smiled softly and returned my gaze to the screen of my phone to see the reply from my mysterious American friend.'Dead? Do you want me dead?'The smile on my face broadened as I asked him through the text, 'Are you not angry? I snubbed you for the longest time''As long as it makes you happy' His response was quick.I rubbed the roof of my no
Clancy's POV I had a lot to think of and figure out as I entered the Night Moon Hotel and made my way to the elevator but stopped because of the noise in the lobby. I was angry and looked around to see the hotel manager having a heated conversation with two women and the security team with him seem to be ready to take action at any moment. I was going to ignore them when I caught a glimpse of the side of one of the woman's face and a gulp went down my throat. Now my attention was gotten. Aurora DE Santa. I adjusted my suit and walked towards them when the manager of the hotel noticed my presence. He quickly rushed over to me and acted polite with a smile on his face, "Mr. McCain, I didn't know you were around. I was about to send this women away" "Send us away. What the fvck are you talking about?" The other woman with Aurora had stepped out to throw a tantrum but when her eyes met with mine, she shrank away. I've seen them hanging around too often so they must be really close
Sofia's POVI was pacing around in the room, from one end of the wall to the other with my fist tightly clenched.How dare he?How dare Clancy McCain think he can do whatever he wants?For a moment, it felt like I was under his control and wanted to break free but he is ever cunning to know the right words to use.I couldn't imagine him taking over my room and going through my things.Apart from him seeing my underwear which is of great concern to me and would make my face hot when I think about it, he might find out about my identity because of my gadgets that can be linked to Tuscany."Your Highness, your system is connected" Giada pulled me out of my thoughts from the bed where she was seated with my laptop.I collected the system from her and glanced at the phone in her hand."The code stopped running, broken or something. The CCTV server might not be active right now?" She told me.I took the phone from her and made adjustments to the program I was running, "The storage appeared
Sofia's POVShe blinked her ocean-blue eyes at me and the two men stared at each other before staring at me.I opened my mouth and made to come up with the best lie ever."You! Are you Aurora DE Santa?" Lily's face brightened as she stared even closer at me, "You are Aurora DE Santa, the beautiful woman who makes a lot of games"Her mouth opened and I could see a smile forming on her face.I sighed in relief and nodded with a small smile on my face.Aurora Technologies also dealt with the mass production of new software every month which includes games.And yes, mobile games for children too.My face is now on everything in newspapers and online news outlets so I'm not surprised at being recognized easily.Lily embraced me and I felt my heart stopped beating at that moment.She had really grown and could even touch my waist now. Tears covered my eyes and emotions whirled inside of me because of the contact with her.This feeling of her hug since five years ago.It felt special and go
Sofia's POV"Sofia..."Oh my God.. She knows it's me.How? How exactly?"Why do you speak like Sofia?" She added and this made me stare directly at her, beads of sweat still scattered all over my forehead."Are you alright?" Her little voice asked me and I managed to calm myself down.A sigh of relief that my cover wasn't blown but I'm under the suspicion of a child.She must have noticed from the way I communicate with her but how is that still possible?I trained myself for months... years... to change the way I act and communicate with people when using my Aurora DE Santa identity.Aurora DE Santa is supposed to be someone else entirely.Did I let my emotions slip in and allow Sofia to surface a little?Oh shit. Fvck me!"Sofia...?" I laughed nervously and rubbed the side of my face.Lily let down her head and played with the helm of her dress, "Yes. She used to be lovely like you""And I speak like her?" I scratched the back of my head nervously."I think I'm just missing her and-
