"You said nothing would give you pleasure more than seeing me in pain, huh?" He said as he stalked me like his prey until I was trapped between his body and the wall. "Absolutely. " I said, firing back. "Then sex works. It causes pain..but more pleasure than pain, and as you have noticed, I'm great at pleasing people." He had that smug smile on his face, and while I hated him at this exact moment, my body was about to betray me rather too quickly. Karrion Xavier Black is the CEO of Black Industries and at night, the head of the biggest Italian mob in the world. He's arrogant, rude, a terribly annoying playboy, and yet filthy rich. Very few people get to see another side of him and at that, for a moment at times. Sophia Kane is an art consultant for the 1% of the 1% at day, but at night, she's the best assasin/spy for the organization. What happens when the next name that comes across her desk is his? She's out for revenge, and she's going to get it no matter what. Follow us on this journey as we see the hate moments, the love moments, the love-hate moments.
View MoreI drove home, I changed and then drove to the hangar. I knew this was a bad idea but I got myself into this mess and I'll see myself through it. I particularly thought I looked good tonight.I parked my car and I was met by a very intimidating man who said nothing. Instead, he started walking towards the jet and I followed behind him. We climbed the steps of the jet and I expected Karrion to be seated there but he wasn't. "Sit." The man said firmly and I did. The door to the jet closed and I could hear the engine start. Where the hell is he taking me to?!"Can I get you anything miss?" I looked up and saw a beautiful young woman. She was dressed as an air hostess so..."Nothing right now. Where's Karrion? And where are we going?""Mr. Black is currently preoccupied and he will join you as soon as he can. And we are currently headed to Russia." Russia?! Is she joking?!"Russia?""Yes miss. Would that be all?""Yes. Thank you." I brought out my phone to text Franco but we had already t
"Welcome Sofia. You know that I'm not one for small talk so let's get straight to business. Today we are honoured to have Olivia Grant-Toliver in our midst. Olivia is a good friend of mine and throughout her stay here in Venice, I expect her to be accorded the same respect that I have been accorded through the years." So she's the one who pulled Leo away last night. Olivia Grant-Toliver. I have heard so much about her but up until today, I had never met her. Leo simply blindsided me with this meeting as I entered his office this morning. She was indeed beautiful and she had this intimidating presence that resonated with her. Also, she scented expensive but also heavenly. I couldn't put my hand on it but I could spend all day hugging her just to get that scent on me."Hello Sofia, it's a pleasure to meet you." She extended her perfectly sized and manicured hands to me and I took it."Pleasures all mine. So, what have we done to be graced with your presence?" "Why don't you take a seat
"You didn't seem to have an issue with that last night. " I was surprised at his bluntness but I simply smiled and slid the documents to him."Before anything is set in stone, you have to sign these documents first. " He looked at me with this smile and then he regained his composure. He picked the papers up and started flipping through them. "This is a lot. All this just to be able to buy art?""I need to know your taste in art, your price range, I need to know your financial status and source of income and I also need to know that you're a law-abiding citizen. Take your time and go through it, there's no rush.""I don't have an issue with every other part but my financial status, you know better. I'm wearing a $50,000 suit, that should say a lot. And let's be honest, we know that half of your clients are drug lords, mobsters, and Wall Street guys who buy art as a form of hiding their money in plain sight, so my relationship with the law shouldn't be a problem. I'll sign the papers
"I got everything we needed," I said as I threw a file on Leo's table the next morning. He raised his head and took me in."You're not wearing your usual spy chic today. Why?""Cause I'm an actual businesswoman by day. I'm just here to give my report.""Well, you look amazing. ""Thank you. Now, the files." I said as I walked over to him. He picked it up and read through it. He raised his head with a smirk and then he started clapping slowly. "This is why you're the best! This is good baby!" He got up and wrapped his arms around my waist as he kissed me. "I'm impressed again! This file just saved two of our biggest funders. The Russian President, the VP of America, they could all be dead in two days but with this! They're not going anywhere. " He moved back to his table and picked up his phone to make a call but then he stopped and turned back to me. Very slowly. "How did you get this Soph?" "I have my ways.""Did you sleep with him?" He asked as he moved away in disbelief. "I did
"Now, all you're supposed to do is to get into his apartment, find those names, and get out of there." Leo reminded me for the millionth time. "I know the plan. I'll be at his birthday party as an art collector who got an invite. I'll have my way with him until I end up in his apartment. I'll then drug him and then get what I need. Simple. " "No, not simple. Make sure that you DO NOT end up in bed with him, Sophia. He's dangerous. ""Are you saying that as my boss or the man I'm sleeping with?""Both. And DON'T go rogue this time.""Ok." I fixed my hair and make-up as we talked. We were at Leo's penthouse, and I was done with him hovering over me like this. He was so hesitant to let me leave. It's just one night. What could go wrong? "Look, I'm ready, and I need to leave now. ""You look beautiful. And you left your hair in its natural colour. I hate it when you dye it blonde. It's long and soft and so lush.""You're starting to sound so creepy. " I said as I put on my shoes. This i
Fine! I'm sorry. I acted like an impulsive teenager, and I knew better! I put myself in danger and I'm sorry for that." I wanted to move away, but his hands held my waist in place. He moved his head to the crook of my neck. His warm breath sent shivers down my spine. "You scared me, Soph. Why did you choose to go solo like that?" His words no longer held anger in them. They rolled off his tongue softly with his Italian accent."I'm sorry. I never meant to give you or anyone else a scare. I just did what I thought was best then.""I was so worried to death. What if something had happened to you?" I brought his face to mine. My hands were on both sides of his face, and I caressed his hard face."But nothing happened, Leo. I'm good. Besides, I would never put myself in a situation where I don't see myself coming back to you." He gave me a small smile. I closed the gap between us with a kiss. It was needy, passionate, and rough. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me to him, c
"How far out is he?" I asked over the small mic hidden in my ear. I was currently trying to bypass the firewalls of Quentin Thurman's laptop. Who is he? He is the head of one of the biggest mafias in Italy. I wouldn't normally handle a situation like this but he crossed a line with my boss and I'm here to end this. One way or the other."He's five minutes out. Do you have what you need?" Leonardo, my boss answered over the call. I had to get everything or lose everything I had already gathered. "I need more time. There's no way I'll have everything in five minutes. ""He's getting too close for comfort. Get out of there Sophie!" I was hell-bent on getting what I came here for. Even if that meant putting myself in danger."I'm sorry boss, but I've got to go.""Don't you dare! Sop..." Then I ended the call and removed the mic from my ear. I could hear the front door to this luxurious apartment open and close. I was just about done in the master bedroom when I heard the footsteps get cl
