Dominico was in the middle of his sleep when he felt another person's presence inside his room. His breath hitched and he listened to the man's movements. He has been a light sleeper these past few years due to the fact that his life was in constant danger. Good thing he made a habit of keeping a gun under his pillow for emergency purposes. And Simon thought that it's time to use this gun on someone. Ever so slowly, he reached for the gun that was tucked under his pillow. He did it without so much as moving so the person inside his room won't ever notice that he's awake now. Simon was sure that his intention was to kill him. This is not a burglar case, but an assassination plot. He swallowed an imaginary lump in his throat. He held on to the gun tightly before he jumped out of the bed without any warning. "Who the fuck are you?" He pointed the gun at the man's silhouette. He can clearly see that the man was armed with a gun, because he was also aiming in his direction. "No ha

Cassius Mancini may appear calm while he was drinking wine in his office, but his mind was filled with bloody thoughts. Mauro was standing on the far side of the office, observing Mancini’s reaction. He knew his boss was up to something bloody. “Do you have enough information about this Dominico Galvante?” he asked. He swirled the amber-colored wine in his glass. His face was void of any emotion. Mauro swallowed hard. He had done his homework about the man, but he knew it was not enough. “He’s a native from Argentina, boss. I dug deeper about his life but there’s no information on the internet.” Mauro wiped the sweat on his forehead. “What do you mean no information?” Cassius’ brow frowned. “There was no information about him. It was like he just popped into this world, no background, even abou his childhood. The only thing the internet said about him was that he’ a businessman. Even the name of his business was not mentioned.” Cassius chugged all the contents of his glass and

Addison was going on with her day. It was a no so busy day and it seemed peaceful. After the news about Mancini being burned alive, it seemed like everything went back to normal. But as wat Federico told them, they should not put their guard down. She and Ryzen were in the grocery store to buy all the necessary things they needed. “Will you give me a hand on this?” She rolled her eyes as she came to the parking space. Ryzen was in the driver seat listening to his own type of music. “Oh, right! I’m sorry, Ads. I didn’t know you’re here already.” He gave her a huge grin. “Did you buy some chips? I really those when working on some stuff.” “Yes, your highness. We need to go back now, it’s late and I need to cook dinner. Federico will be home today.” Ryzen helped Addie put the grocery bag at the back of the car. “Speaking of Federico. Did he ever mention to you what happened to him when he went inside Galvante’ house? He never said a thing to us after that.” Addison shook her he

Addison woke up in a dark and cold room. Her vision was still blurred, and she has no idea how many hours she lost consciousness. Ye, she knew what happened to her. She was kidnapped from the parking lot. She remembered how Ryzen tried to fight that huge man who took her. “Shit! What the hell?” She groaned in annoyance when she felt a sticky liquid on her hands and feet. “So disgusting!” She exclaimed when she smelled the foul odor. Addison roamed her eyes around the dimly lit room. “Where the hell am I?” The man who abducted her was nowhere to be seen now. “Hello? Is someone here?” She called out.No one answered her. Addie let out a sigh and stood up. Her jeans were wet. She smells awful and is in a very compromising situation. She had no idea who took her but she’s almost certain that this has something to do with the underworld. Though she has no direct participation in it, those people can be very resourceful .“Hey! Get me out of here!” she tried to shout again, but to n

Addison was speechless. He knew the person in front of him was Dominico Galvante, but deep inside, she could see Simon. “Simon…” she whispered. The man stood in front of him. His face was covered with a mask, and he was wearing black. He expected Federico would come and rescue her, she didn't expect it would be Simon who would stand in front of him. “Shhh…’’ Simon signaled her to keep her mouth shut. Addie stood there in awe. “What are you doing here?” She asked him. It's a dumb question, she knew about it, but that's all her mind could process at the moment. The man removed his mask, revealing his burned face. He gave her a tight smile. “Of course, I'm here to get you out of this place.”Worried suddenly burst from her heart. Mancini wanted Simon, and if he knew that Simon was here, it would be chaotic and bloody. Addie shook her head. “No, you shouldn't be here. Mancini wants you, and we all know that he's going to call you.” Her voice quivered. She grabbed his arm and pu
