The dance floor was filled with some invited guests, they moved swiftly and yet gently with the tune of the melodious music that was being played. Damon's eyes were fixed on his phone, he'd gone to the dance floor with Athena but the young woman had excused herself suddenly to go use the ladies. He was glad because he was getting tired of the slow music, it seemed like some sort of lullaby to his ears which made him wanna drop on the floor and sleep. It's ironic to him though because the lullaby had never worked on him back at the orphanage. There was a kind woman back at his orphanage who used to sing melodious lullabies to them, however, instead of making him sleep back then, it made him fully awake because, to him, it was a total disturbance to his ears. He raised his head and a half smile formed on her face when he saw Electra and Trevor dancing together. It was a hilarious scene considering the fact that just a few minutes ago, they wanted to tear each other apart because Athe
Damon's eagle eyes scan through the crowd as soon as he steps out of the corridor, his woman by his side. He saw Electra and Trevor heading towards them, they looked sick with worry. "Where the hell were you guys? We've been looking for you." Electra asked and Damon just shrugged."We might probably get attacked tonight, so ready your horses and your strategies because we're on the fewer side here," Damon announced calmly and Electra's eyes bulged open in surprise. "How? I mean who wants to attack us?" Trevor asked, surprise evident in his voice. It looks like he too wasn't expecting such a thing to happen.Damon gave them a half smile, he totally understood their plight. They've all left their home to come to a party which would probably be their burial party. The party was intended to be fun but since Alfredo has no idea what fun is, he'll show him a bloody kind of fun. He'll definitely love it, he's a lover of blood since he was willing to risk killing him in the guise of inviti
"Sweetheart, this is insane, however, I love the insanity. But how are you gonna win this whole thing? I trust you darling but that doesn't change the fact that this battle seems so impossible to win." Athena muttered, her hold on his arm tightening.Damon sighed, "I don't know how I'm gonna win, darling but one thing is certain, I AM NOT GONNA LOOSE EITHER." He asserted with all composure and shot Alfredo a deadly glance. Alfredo and Damon's eyes locked, Damon smirked while Alfredo gave him a smile and began to head towards him. Three guests were following Alfredo as he made his way to him. The anger he was feeling threatened to burn the man and whatever he represented but he kept everything in check and plastered a fake smile on his face. "Good evening, boss. I hope you're enjoying the party?" Alfredo asked, extending his hand for a handshake.Damon took it and replied, "Of course, great party but I'll be leaving soon.""Why so soon, it's an all-night party. You've got to live l
"Were you dipped in a pool of blood?" Electra asked as she saw the blood-stained Trevor heading towards them. "Can you stop teasing me for once in your life?" Trevor asked with a scoff and Athena chuckled."She teases you for a living, you should have gotten used to it by now," Athena muttered, her eyes focused on a particular yellow dot in her wristwatch."Yeah, I guess so," Trevor muttered and rested his body on the wall. "I think I should go and search for him, maybe he's in danger?" Electra suggested and a low sigh escaped Athena's mouth. "I don't think that's a wise idea. Let's wait for him, it was his order not to come looking for him. He's already angry and I know it's a terrible idea to defy his orders now. He's moving Electra, I'm sure he'll be here soon, don't stress it. See, he's moving." Athena said and showed the yellow dot on her watch that had begun to move again."I just hope he's alright, I regretted leaving him all alone. Those assassins were dangerous." Electra s
"Oh fuck it! Fuck it!!" Damon muttered angrily as he stepped into the Villa.Athena followed him in shortly, her eyes fixed on the man who was pacing to and fro. She dropped her bag and went closer to him, she didn't want to disturb him but his anger was too extreme.Damon's mind was occupied by different thoughts, he'd called to inform his Underboss of the latest developments and he'd asked him to convey the message to the rest of the members.He'd have let Alfredo go if he would fucking tell him the truth but the man was being extremely stubborn and he shall tell him everything he needs to know or things won't be good. He might think that he's stubborn but Alfredo has no idea that being stubborn is graded... Where Alfredo's stubbornness ends is where his began and he would show him what it means to be stubborn soon. "Damon, you've got to chill, here, have some water," Athena said calmly, offering him a bottle of water but the man ignored her. It was like she didn't exist for him.
The elevator dinged and the chatter and eating in the dining table ceased as all heads turned towards the elevator. Everyone in the Villa was aware of the terrible incident that happened yesterday. Not just the Villa, the whole world has carried the news and every news channel in Italy has the event as its major headline, the tabloids, and newspapers are all ringing with different versions of what happened. The world might be aware of the disaster but only the people in the Villa knew that the mastermind behind the major headlines of today is in a foul mood and no one wants to provoke him more. He'd been in his room all morning, he wouldn't even open the door for his fianceé or trusted friends. He'd warned all of them to stay away from him. Damon's eyes were fixed on his phone, a frown on his face. Every channel he opens is filled with Alfredo's misfortune, however, the news has said that Alfredo doesn't wish to make any comment on the topic yet. He knew that it was probably the
"I'm waiting, Athena. You don't need to be scared, if you've not done anything wrong, feel free with me, no injustice shall be meant to you. You have my word." He promised and Athena nodded. "Alfredo was the unknown man that sent me to kill you." He revealed and a low gasp escaped Electra's mouthDamon's face, which was filled with concern just a few seconds ago, turned blank immediately after Athena uttered those words from her mouth. He didn't know what to think or how to even digest the information that he'd just heard. Athena had clearly told him that she had no idea who sent her to assassinate him, so why on earth is she saying a different thing now? Her story isn't just different, it's so shocking and it makes him wanna do something bad to her but he held himself back and sat up straight. "You knew Alfredo was the man that sent you to assassinate me in the first place? I mean what the heck are you talking about, what do you mean? You clearly told me that you have no idea wh
"We exist Damon and I need your help, you need to allow me to interrogate Alfredo so he'll talk and spill who else knows about my girls. They are my only family, Damon. It's broken and beyond repair but it's still good for me." She brittled with trembling lips. Damon could see that she was trying hard not to cry, he could see pain in her voice. "You're an assassin leader?!" Trevor's surprised voice asked. Athena gave a sad smile and nodded affirmatively. "Wow," Electra mumbled, staring at Athena like she was someone new to her."How? I mean this is so surprising, I never knew rogues have decided to come together and form a league, to think that we have rogue assassin leaders amongst us is just wow. This is incredible." Electra exclaimed, her hands covering her mouth. "Yeah, it's really surprising. I mean she looks so ordinary and friendly in a way." Trevor supported Electra's logic and Athena chuckled. "Your boss is the leader of one of the most dreaded Mafia in the world and al
