THIRTY ONE

LILY’s POVI am brought into a dressing room, no….the term ‘dressing room’ does not do justice to this enormous chamber. A hall chock full of floor to ceiling wardrobes can be seen, filled with rows upon rows of dresses and suits. You name it, they’ve got it.I inhale deeply and take a step forward, feeling the silken fabric of one of the dresses in my hand. A hiss escapes my lips, I have never felt anything as luxurious as this before. Rose would love this. This place is a girl’s dream come true!“Come, my dear,” Elena calls out. She is already many steps ahead of me and stops in the middle of the room where a velvet semi-circle plush sofa lays. Letting go of the silken fabric, I move towards her ever cautiously. She smiles warmly at me and places a hand on my shoulder when I finally reach her and spins me around.A little chuckle escapes her soft moist lips. “I can see why he is so fond of

THIRTY TWO

KANE’s POV I stare at my plate, I should be hungry but I am not. My mind keeps going back to what Jonas said; that Sergio took to the hills.There are hundreds if not thousands of hills around. Finding Sergio on my own would be like finding a needle in a haystack. I’ll need to form allies with mafia leaders from across the borders to prevent Sergio from defecting to their lands and earn himself immunity from my manhunt.My brows furrow together and my fingers curl around the wine glass so tight the knuckles turn white. Damn that snake, I should have shot him in the abandoned building when I had the chance.  But then again, if I had chosen to chase after Sergio then I would never have been able to save Lily. Do I regret sacrificing that one chance of getting the son of a bitch? I suck in a deep breath and slowly exhale, my eyes closing.The funny thing is, I do not. I do not regret entering that last roo

THIRTY THREE

LILY’s POV   I open my eyes to the sound of birds chirping outside the window and my lips curl up into a smile. I stretch my arms as far out as my muscles and bones allow me only to wince slightly at the pain from the wound. Oops. I must remember not to overexert myself until the wound is completely healed. Pain aside, the smile remains plastered on my face. Kane came to me….I cannot believe it. I cup my cheeks, feeling my skin heat up from a mixture of both embarrassment and excitement. We had stayed in each other’s arms throughout the night, him just stroking my hair while I held his hand and told him about my childhood. I wish he had told me more about his though, he rarely spoke but then again, Kane is not a man of many words and I respect him for that. And the fact that he stayed with me to quell my fears already speaks volumes. I swing my feet to the wooden floorboards and walk towards the window, pushing it wide op

THIRTY FOUR

ROSE’s POV   This car, this luxurious car comes to a halt and I find myself peering out the window, my opens and closes as my gaze falls on the mansion in front of me. No, not a mansion. A mansion would be too ill-fitting of a description. This place is a palace, a castle, a fortress made for a king! I know for a fact that the mafia are rich but this is ridiculous! Still....I like it.  I draw in a breath and a tiny smile finds its way to my lips. So this is where Kane Ibraco lives. I look up at the countless windows that reflect the evening sun and admire the beauty of this great architecture. No wonder Lily did not stay back with us, if I were her, I’d run back to this palace too.   Tore kills the engine and turns to look at me. “It’s beautiful…” I tell him honestly. He chuckles. “Yes, so are you.” I blink, his compliment catching me by surprise and I turn to face him too. For a moment, neither

THIRTY FIVE

KANE’s POV   I do not like what I see. “Take it off. The dress does not belong to you,” I tell Lily’s sister. The blonde temptress looks up at me with her big blue eyes and she blinks in surprise. Sister or not, I do not like people who take possession of what clearly does not belong to them. “I…I was only trying it on..” she stammers, trying to explain. Her head drops and she fidgets at her feet. “Do not make me repeat myself.” Her breath hitches and she bites her lips. “Yes,” her reply comes out in barely a whisper. “Tell Lily to meet me at the lobby when she is ready.” I walk away without waiting for her to reply. She has spoilt my mood, the girl is lucky I did not ask her to strip off the dress there and then. My feet take me back down to the lobby where Tore and Russo are gathered. Russo looks up as I reach the landing and he frowns. “Are you sure you’re bringing Lily? She’s still gree

THIRTY SIX

LILY’s POV   A lump lodges in my throat and my chest rises and fall. “You just met Kane yesterday, Rose,” I somehow manage to speak. I turn to her but she palms both sides of my cheeks, forcing me to stare at the wall in front. I am unable to see the expression on her face. “Yes, but I like him,” she answers simply. My fingers curl into a fist and lines mar my forehead. Why does my heart feel as if it has just been wrung dry? There is an incredible shift in the atmosphere from the jovial one earlier to the stifling one right now. My eyes creep to the window and I look out at the evening sky, unsure of what to say. Rose has always been the less impulsive of us two so to hear her say this, can only mean one thing, she is serious about Kane. “I see,” is all I can say. We spend the remaining time in my room in silence as she continues to style my hair. Rose doesn’t say anything anymore after that, she has made her point, she

THIRTY SEVEN

LILY’s POV Kane’s car pulls up in front of the biggest building I have ever seen. This place is huge! I rub my eyes, careful not to smudge the mascara that Elena gifted me and take in a deep breath, admiring the colossal building in front of me.Kane looks over to me, arching an eyebrow. “Ready?”My hand goes to the little black gun strapped to my thigh and I nod. “Yes.”He stares at me for a second, not saying anything and I feel my cheeks heat up. “You look stunning,” he says simply and reaches over to place the mask over my face. The act catches me by surprise and I become very still as he carefully ties the knot behind my head. His cologne fills my senses and briefly, I close my eyes before quickly snapping them open.Why did I close my eyes? What on earth was I thinking?Kane leans back and inspects my mask before slipping on his own. “Good, let’s go then

THIRTY EIGHT

LILY’s POV   We turn around and come face to face with Iroshi, the big bad of the east. The man smiles through his paper thin lips and I find myself taking a step back. I feel Kane’s arms circle around my waist to stop me from retreating. “Iroshi, how have you been?” Kane greets him. His voice is terse and I sense an undercurrent of uneasiness emanating from him. Kane is tense and rightly so. I have heard of Iroshi’s name even as a child; this man is a legend but not in a good way. He kills for fun and dips his meals in the blood of his victims. “Never better,” Iroshi replies, his eyes graze my body and I grimace. I really should not have come. Behind him, a beautiful woman clad in a kimono steps up. She has two samurai swords tied to her back in the shape of an ‘X’ and she takes her place next to Iroshi. “You have news of Sergio?” Kane asks. Around us, conversations come to a standstill. Kane may be feared by the people in our l

THIRTY NINE

LILY’s POV “Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.” – Norman Cousins.   “Iroshi!” someone from the crowd shouts. Vladimir runs back to the middle of the ballroom to check for a pulse, he shakes his head, there is none. The big bad of the east is dead, it should not have happened but it did and all eyes fall on Kane. He gently lays Iroshi back onto the floor before making eye contact with Vladimir. “He’s dead,” he states the obvious. Vladimir nods his head silently and raises his hand, signalling for help. One of the attendees or waiter, I can’t tell the difference, they’re all dressed the same quickly exits the ballroom. I run towards Kane, fall on my knees and cup his chin with both my hands. Tears line my eyes and blur my vision. I hate crying, but seeing him wounded like this breaks my heart. He palms my hand with his bloodied ones and shoots me a weak sm

FORTY

LILY’s POV   The kiss….our kiss is neither earth-shattering nor is it one filled with throes of passion and moans. It is none of that. Instead, it is like the waking up of one’s soul on a fine spring morning, allowing me to taste and feel every colour of the rainbow in their own sensual way. It is like tasting cotton candy as it melts in your mouth, coating every one of your senses with its softness and sweetness. Everything around me fades to nothingness, it is as if nothing else exists except the two of us. It is my first kiss and it is one I will remember for the rest of my life. “You should rest,” I whisper when our lips finally part. He massages my earlobe and offers a smile. “You should change.” We both look down at my bloodied dress and laugh a little. Or at least I do. Kane grimaces right after a laugh escapes his lips, his wound must hurt him more than he lets on. I run my hand through his hair and give him a lit
