She didn’t seem to be joking. I creased my brows. ‘’Why?’’ ‘’Some things can’t remain the same, Bree.’’ She bent in front of the vanity, admiring her new haircut. She tucked some of the short hair on one side behind her ears and let the hair on the other side fall to frame her face a little. With her skinny stature, she looked like a young boy. A very handsome one. She faced me, her eyes softening, almost begging me to understand her. ‘’I’ll have a lot of enemies because of the mafia, Bree. They won’t get me easily but they’ll hurt people I know. Rose is one of them.’’ She slumped on the bed and crossed her legs. ‘’I won’t forgive myself if something happens to her.’’I nodded, understanding her fully. ‘’We still have to say goodbye though. We can’t just leave without letting her know.’’‘’It’ll be easier on a phone call. I won’t see the way her heart would break when I tell her goodbye.’’I sat beside her, momentarily forgetting the excitement of trying out my new clothes.

Her eyes were closed and her lips were parted slightly. She was making a gentle moaning sound that was sending my skin crawling. ‘’Are you alright?’’ She turned slowly at me and smiled as though I had given her the best compliment of the year. ‘’Wanna find out?’’ she asked.I was in the process of ignoring her, raising my book back to my face when her hand brushed against it, sending it flying to the bed. Before I could recover from that shock, her hands encircled my neck and she drew me towards her. I felt her lips touch mine, then it took it, possessing iit did something to me. It was an emotion I had never felt before. I sat still as she continued with her assault, drawing me closer still and invading my mouth.She pulled away a few seconds later, her cheeks red with embarrassment. ‘’I’m -’’ she started to say, then decided to twist her fingers instead which she was watching with half attention. I picked my book and raised it to my face. I knew when she stood up from t

‘’Chin down, just a little. Eyes up.’’I crouched behind the camera, my eyes fixed on the model. She was a stunning woman with full lips and a bone penetrating stare. ‘’Let’s get that sultry gaze,’’ I said, clicking the shutters.The pictures were perfect. I knew she was a fashion magazine product from the first day I had seen her. ‘’Let’s get a profile shot.’’She turned her head to the side and I raised my camera. My finger hovered over the shutter button, waiting for the perfect moment.‘’Beautiful.’’I walked away from the platform, reviewing the images. I already knew what to do with each of them. I hunched over my laptop, scrutinizing the details.‘’Hey, Zion.’’ I felt her hands on my shoulders. ‘’How is the review going?’’Without looking up, I said, ‘’Good. You are very stunning.’’ Complementing models when they came for a shoot was part of my job, but there was no lie here. This woman was breathtakingly stunning.She leaned in, her voice dropping to a sultry whisper

My mind was a jumble of adrenaline, thoughts of the bullet ripping through my chest or my head running. I tried to reach for my phone with my shaky hands. I found it in the back pocket of my jeans. I could still see the man standing outside, watching us. He was not working alone. Someone had crashed the windows in the kitchen, and put off the lights.Rose’s terrified gaze met mine and she mouthed something I couldn’t hear. My heart was pounding loudly and I could almost hear my blood rushing behind my ears. My fingers closed around my phone and I yanked it out with a jerky motion. I had emergency on speed dial, and I immediately rang it. The man in black still had his masked face pressed against the glass. I was expecting the person responsible for the crash in the kitchen to walk in at any moment and put a bullet through our skulls.‘’Hello. What’s your emergency?’’I pressed the phone to my ear, crawling away under the mask of the slight darkness in the room. Rose followed

Zion’s room came into full view as I opened my eyes. I rolled slightly away from him, trying not to wake him up. I let out a small gasp of air. It had been real. I had slept with my best friend’s ex boyfriend. Shit. my eyes travelled along the ceiling. There was a large, incomplete painting of a naked woman and her lover. I looked around for my clothes. I remembered we had pulled our tops in the sitting room. I was wearing a denim jean skirt when he carried me into the room.‘’Octavia,’’ he moaned gently, reaching for my arm. I froze, hoping he would not open his eyes. It was already awkward enough that he thought I was Octavvia. I was very much aware of what was happening when he kissed me last night and I felt like dirt right now.He returned to sleep a few seconds later and I tried sliding down the bed again. The bed creaked a little but he didn’t make any movement. He was sleeping soundly. My skirt was lying at the foot of the bed, as well as my panties and bra. I grabbed

Inhaling the familiar scent of her perfume did little to put me at ease. I felt the betrayal even more. Telling her the truth at this point was more impossible than it had been a couple of minutes ago. Maybe I should have just told her over the phone. We separated from the hug and she looked at me with concern in her eyes. I darted my eyes, looking at the floor instead and i felt a flush rise in my cheeks.‘’Are you okay?’’I nodded. ‘’Where is Bree?’’ then walked into the room as she stepped in after me.‘’She’s in the car. I wanted us to talk about something privately first.’’I swallowed hard. Here it goes. ‘’Breakfast?’’‘’Wouldn’t mind some of your muffins,’’ she said, dropping on one of the chairs. ‘’I miss them so much.’’Muffins reminded me of the event of last night. I could blame her for it, use it as a defense card. If that incident had not happened, I wouldn't have gone to Zion’s house and none of this would have happened.‘’I only have coffee and some cold biscui

I heard the sound of the door closing shut as she left and I collapsed on the counter. The tears came down in torrents, and my body vibrated from the emotions of guilt and loss. I didn’t think I had done the right thing, I had done the easier thing. ‘’I’m so sorry, Octavia.’’I could never accept her forgiveness for what I had done without forgiving myself first. I was a coward too.—-‘’I’m sorry, Rose.’’My worst fears were becoming a reality. I needed to find a way to protect her from the people that may want to hurt her. I reached for her as I stepped forward.‘’Perhaps it’s best we give each other some space for now,’’ she said, her words making me freeze in my path. She was still looking out of the window, backing me.‘’Rose,’’ I started. ‘’I thought of this too. I’m concerned about your safety and I’ll -’’‘’Just stop,’’ she cut me short, raising her hand. ‘’Don’t do anything, Octavia. You’ve done enough.’’I sighed. ‘’Let me do something about this, Rose.

On the ground floor of the Da Vinci’s mansion is the security room, a compact high-tech space where security cameras from all over the town of Palmero were reviewed by select security agents. I have access to this room but I use the smaller room for briefing. The walls are adorned with maps of the estate and the surrounding area, with a small console that houses the backup security system of the mansion. No one except my father, Mikel and I know about the backup security system. The room is dimly lit and has a musty smell about it. The only light in the room is from the soft blue glows emanating from the screens. I drew out a metal chair, which scraped against the cold metal floor. This room is made of metals that are bullet proof and can survive a drone attackOli stood in front of me, her hands clasped behind her back. She has a tall and imposing figure with her dark hair cropped short. Aaron is standing beside me, stoic and unreadable.‘’I have a special mission for yo

I reached out for a napkin from a server and stretched it towards her. ‘’This might not help much, but it can reduce the wetness.’’She raised her head, looking at me with her doe eyes a second more than necessary. ‘’Thank you, Zion,’’ she said. ‘’But I may need to change this. Can you point me to the ladies?’’‘’Of course.’’We continued to walk arm in arm into the hall. I could see my father sitting by the fireplace and eating some barbecue with the ‘’men’’. Nike was standing at a corner talking to his wife, Miranda. He saw us approaching then and he watched us with curiosity.‘’She spilled her drink,’’ I said to both of them. The napkin was sitting on her chest, covering the ugly red mark on her beautiful white gown.‘’Oh my God!’’ Miranda exclaimed. ‘’I’m so sorry about that. Your beautiful dress is ruined.’’She smiled awkwardly, tugging at my arms but I ignored it. Nile was watching her with a new interest.‘’’The ladies is just on the first floor, by your right. I’ll b

‘’You are still in bed, Zion?’’I opened my eyes slowly and looked at the disapproving look on Nile’s face. I rubbed my eyes and rolled to the side. ‘’Can’t I sleep in peace?’’ I grumbled. I had partied the night before and my body was still trying to recover from all of the fatigue.‘’No,’’ he said, walking in and drawing the blinds away. It was almost dark outside. I glance at the clock. Past 6.‘’The party doesn’t start until 8, Nile. I can sleep for another hour,’’ I said, pulling the duvet over my chest. I was interested in any parties my brother was organising, especially a ‘Family reunion.’‘’We are hosting, Zion. I need you out of bed,’’ he said and finally walked out of the room.I laid still on the bed for minutes, staring at the ceiling. I pulled myself up into a sitting position and felt nauseous. Beside me, Sophia was still sleeping deeply. I pushed the covers off and my feet hit the cold tile. The bedside rug had been ruined and it was threadbare in some places

I tossed in bed for hours. I had barely slept for a few minutes when I was woken up by a nightmare. I stared at the ceiling, clutching my arms and reminding myself that it was a dream. I was safe at home in Palmero. The clock ticked slowly but i could not return to sleep anymore. Thoughts of the men brutally assaulting me played in my head nonstop, despite all my attempts to block them. The screams of those men as Dmitir fired lethal bullets into their heads added only to my torment. I turned to my side and twisted my finger into a fist, grimacing. I laid there for hours, my eyes and mind awake, but my body tired. Finally, I got up and strolled out of the room in my night wear alone. The house was silent and the corridors were dark. I took two flights of stairs until i arrived on the first floor. Then I walked to one of the rooms. Without hesitation, i turned on the handle and opened the door.

I met Rory on the way. I wished I had not. I just wanted to return to my room, to bury my head in my pillow. Dad had not been able to hide his disappointment. I could see it all over his face even though he said nothing. He was going to get revenge for what had been done to Bree, and he would be killed and my life would be in ruins. I thought of the prophecy that man had said about my past and I shivered as I walked down the corridor.‘’Hey, Raven,’’ she said, leaning on the wall and clutching at her loose robe.‘’I can’t deal with this right now,’’ I said, walking past her.She held my hand. ‘’We’ve been together before we met, raven. I didn’t go behind your back.’’I pulled my hand away. ‘’Stay away from my father,’’ I said and walked away.It felt like ages since I left on this trip to Russia. So many things had gone wrong in just a few days. I had lost the respect I had just earned and I had lost a friend too. I pushed the door open and flung myself on the bed. Strange

The flight back to Italy was quiet, but there was a storm brewing in our minds. I couldn’t look at Bree without being consumed by guilt. I had promised to watch over her, and I had failed woefully. The mission had failed also, and I was at the verge of setting both families into war. How would I face my father and tell him that the mission had failed? How could I explain it without mentioning what happened to Bree?Byron was standing in front of the mansion, anticipating our arrival. I looked at the large smile plastered on his face as our car parked and I felt my heart brea. He was healing well and the bandage over his shoulder had been removed. I was responsible for that too. I looked at Bree.‘’Bree?’’She raised her eyes to meet mine. ‘’Don’t tell anyone yet, please,’’ i said, feeling my voice crack with guilt. She nodded. I touched her hand and rubbed it gently. I was going to make the Bravta guys pay for what they had done to Bree, and the humiliation I had faced..

It was almost 8pm when Dimitri arrived at the hotel. This time, the look on his face was different. It was a sullen look and I was almost too afraid to ask what their search had yielded. They had found Bree, I could tell.‘’We found her,’’ he said, walking into the room and reaching for a bottle of water on the fridge which he emptied. My stomach was in knots. He let out a deep sigh as he dropped the empty bottle on the table. ‘’There was some mix up,’’ he continued. ‘’She was mistakenly taken by some of our men.’’I clenched my teeth. Mistakenly? They were going to pay with their lives if anything happened to Bree. ‘’But we were able to find her.’’ He turned to the man beside him and barked some orders. ‘’She is here with us.’’The door opened and closed as the man stepped out. Few seconds later, I saw Bree being rolled in on a chair. She was in a clean dress and her hair was packed up nicely, but I could see the bruises on her skin and the pain and exhaustion in her ey

My worst fears were beginning to happen. I realised now that saying I had gone to get food was such a bad story. What kind of bodyguard left their ward for two hours in search of food in a strange city?‘’Huh?’’ he asked again, raising his brows. He looked furious. ‘’Is this a plan to destroy whatever alliance we may want with da Vinci? Who are you working with?’’The questions came out in a flurry of words and I was surprised to see the angle with which he was viewing the whole affair. He thought this was a mission to sabotage, that I had planned the kidnap of Bree. I wasn't sure if it was a relief or not.‘’And why did you wait so long before you informed us?’’He stood erect and began to pace. Midway, he turned towards me and a heavy slap landed on my face. It stung to my feet and my hands flew to my face in reaction.‘’When I ask you a question, you respond. Do you understand?’’I was outnumbered. There was no way I could react. I thought of the prosthetic nose. If it

Her phone was unreachable. I paced back and forth in front of the lobby, anger and worry boiling within me. Where could she have run off to without telling me? Why was her phone unreachable? I glanced at my watch. It was just fifteen minutes to the wedding. If we don’t show up, there would be questions. If I showed up without her, there would be questions too.I rubbed off some dust on my forearm as I approached the front desk again.‘’I’m unable to reach her,’’ I said in English. ‘’Can I check the CCTV camera? Maybe someone picked her or something. We don’t know anyone here.’’The woman looked at me blankly and for a second I thought she probably did not understand English. ‘’Give me a moment,’’ she replied in English with a heavy accent.I drummed on the counter as I watched her walk to one of her colleagues. They spoke for a while and I could see them looking at me and shaking their heads. She made a sign that she was going to consult someone else and she disappeared d

I watched him walk away. I wasn’t sure who he was. I had never met him before.‘’Is that a problem?’’ Bree asked, watching me. I could hear the panic in her voice and I was beginning to regret telling her what I had noticed.‘’I don’t think so. We just need to know they know we’re armed.’’Deciding to have the wedding on a yacht instead of the family house seemed strategic to me. We were far away from where I could get vital information I came all the way for. The only way out of this predicament was to slip away in the middle of the party without raising suspicion. But that would be hard to do since we had a marked table.I picked the glass of champagne and emptied half of it in the vase quickly. Bree raised her brows. I said nothing.Half an hour into the event, I knew all was not well. The wedding had not started. I could see the look of concern on the faces of the women, the hushed whispers and the going back and forths. Perhaps Natalia had escaped just as she had thre
