"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
"You're looking dark," Electra commented on Athena's look immediately when she joined them in the sitting room.Damon looked up from his laptop because of what Electra said and cocked his brow when he saw the way Athena was dressed up.Electra was not exaggerating, Athena was looking dark because she was literally dressed in black; her bum shorts and baggy top were black. He began to wonder why the woman was dressed like that, they were just going to interrogate Alfredo and not attend his burial."Are you thinking of killing Alfredo and attending his burial?" Trevor asked with a chuckle and the woman standing just smiled."I just want this look today, It's much more appropriate and I don't have to bother about washing off blood just in case anyone spills blood," Athena explained with all innocence.Damon just shook his head and refocused his attention on his laptop while Trevor and Electra gawked at her. "You're so impossible, Athena," Electra exclaimed with a chuckle and Athena jus
Her eyes popped in shock as she observed the body on the bed. "Oh no." She muttered and dropped on the floor."This can't be happening, please let this be a dream, please." She wheezed, tears streaming down her eyes. If what she suspects turns out to be true... The word ‘Danger' is too small to describe their current predicament. Athena curled herself on the floor and began to shake vigorously, it was like she got frigid. "No, no... No, please. This can't happen, God, please... Let this be a dream." She trembled in a shaky quiet voice. "Athena, calm down, please... This isn't the end of it all, we can always find another way. Please pull yourself together." Electra consoled the woman shaking on the floor but she seemed to be in another dimension.Her shaking increased and Electra was immediately alerted, she bent down to touch her but immediately withdrew her hand because of how hot her body had become all of a sudden."Boss... Something's up with Athena. She's burning up." Elect
Cold water cascaded down Damon's body, he'd come to the room to think but the annoying thing was that he couldn't think. He couldn't even rest a bit... He knew rest was far from him as long as his body and mind were concerned. Until he finds a way, he won't have any rest of mind. The doctor had told him to rest but how would he rest when there's so many problems with him... With much more accumulating. Just when he'd thought he found a way, it was blocked entirely. He doesn't know where to turn to, everything seems to be after him. His life was a bit simpler when he had nothing, it was a pathetic life, and he had nothing to show or be proud of. Now, he has everything... Power, money, connections, and all but still no peace of mind. Was he cursed not to have serenity?! The water was relaxing his body but nothing could relax his racing mind right now. He is just a set of jigsaws and he wondered when he would be put together. "Message from Electra." His AI announced. "Play it."
