The club pulsed with music and flashing lights, but inside the private VIP room, the atmosphere was deceptively cozy — laughter, clinking glasses, and glittering smiles.

Katherine Shaw stood at the center of it all, glowing under the attention, dressed in a silver gown that shimmered with every move. She smiled sweetly at her gathered friends and acquaintances as they took turns presenting her with expensive gifts and pouring syrupy compliments over her.

But beneath the dazzling surface, a storm brewed inside her.

Her eyes, carefully lined with smoky makeup, kept darting to Faye Langford — who sat slightly apart from the crowd, looking uncomfortable but smiling politely.

That bitch.

Stealing my spotlight without even trying.

Katherine’s manicured fingers tightened briefly around her wine glass.

Tonight, Faye would pay.

"Faye, come now!" Katherine called sweetly, tilting her head in an innocent gesture.

"You’re making me look bad, just sitting there with an empty glass!"

    Once alone in a storage room, Yemin carefully uncorked the wine and added a measured amount of colorless powder from a small vial.The sedative was tasteless and odorless, but potent enough to drop a grown man within minutes.More importantly, Yemin had built up an immunity to it through years of careful exposure.He recorked the bottle and made his way to the guards' station outside Marco's wing.The three men looked up suspiciously as he approached, their hands instinctively moving toward their weapons."What do you want, ninth place?" Salvatore demanded harshly."I brought you something," Yemin said humbly, holding up the wine bottle."A peace offering.""Peace offering?" Antonio laughed mockingly."What makes you think we want peace with you?""I know you think I had something to do with Francesco's accident," Yemin said, his voice carefully submissive. "I want to prove that I'm not your enemy.""You're right about one thing," Luca sneered."We do think you're responsible for what

    Yemin sat in his quarters, methodically cleaning his gear as he contemplated his next move.The villa had been buzzing with whispered conversations since Francesco's "accident" the previous night.The official story was that the fourth-ranked guard had fallen down the cellar stairs while drunk, but the severity of his injuries suggested something far more sinister.Time is running out, Yemin thought as he checked his watch.If I wait any longer, Marco will start asking too many questions. Tonight is the night.The challenge was getting past the three remaining personal guards who maintained constant vigil outside Marco's private wing.Salvatore, Antonio, and Luca had grown even more paranoid since Francesco's hospitalization, and they never left their posts unattended.Down the hall, the three guards huddled together in Salvatore's room, their voices low but their anger palpable."This is bullshit," Salvatore hissed, pacing like a caged animal."Francesco is lying in a hospital bed wi

    Yemin turned to Maria with the same calm expression he'd maintained throughout the entire confrontation."Don't worry, Maria. You're not in any danger at all."Francesco's face contorted with rage at Yemin's casual dismissal of the threat."NOT IN DANGER?! Are you fucking insane? Look around you, ninth place! You're outnumbered three to one in a basement with no witnesses!""I can see that," Yemin replied matter-of-factly."Then how can you stand there and tell this bitch she's safe?" Francesco roared, his massive frame trembling with fury. "You're about to get your ass kicked by a real soldier!""You still have the nerve to underestimate me," Francesco continued, his voice rising to a crescendo."Despite the fact that you're inferior to me in every possible way! Rank, training, experience, size - I'm better than you at everything!"Giuseppe and Vincenzo flanked their leader, cracking their knuckles in anticipation of the violence to come."Look at him, Francesco," Giuseppe sneered."

    Francesco Moretti stood in the villa's wine cellar, his massive frame casting long shadows in the dim light.At six-foot-four and built like a tank, he had earned his fourth-ranked position through sheer brutality and unwavering loyalty to Marco.Tonight, he intended to prove to his superiors that he deserved to be counted among the elite."Bring her down here," Francesco commanded his two subordinates, both lower-ranked guards eager to curry favor with their superior.Maria struggled against their grip as they dragged her down the stone steps, her eyes wide with terror."Please, what do you want with me? I haven't done anything wrong!""Shut up, bitch," snarled Giuseppe, one of Francesco's lackeys."You'll find out soon enough.""Yeah, keep your mouth closed unless you want us to find other uses for it," added Vincenzo, the other guard, his laughter echoing off the cellar walls.Francesco grabbed Maria by the throat, his massive hand nearly encircling her neck entirely. "Listen caref

    Back at Marco's villa, the personal guards' frustration with Yemin had reached a boiling point. They gathered in Salvatore's room, their voices low but their anger palpable."This is bullshit," Salvatore said, pacing back and forth like a caged animal. "Three days of harassment and the bastard hasn't even raised his voice.""It's like he doesn't even care," Antonio added, his fists clenched. "What kind of man takes that kind of disrespect without fighting back?""A coward," Luca spat. "A pathetic coward who doesn't deserve to breathe the same air as real men."Francesco leaned against the window, his expression thoughtful. "Maybe he's not a coward. Maybe he's just smart enough to know he can't take all four of us.""Smart?" Salvatore laughed harshly. "There's nothing smart about being a doormat. Real men stand up for themselves.""Well, he's obviously not going to give us the satisfaction of fighting back," Antonio said with frustration. "So what do we do now?""We escalate," Francesc

  • CHAPTER 148 PART 1

    The Group A corporate retreat was held at an exclusive mountain resort, complete with panoramic views and luxury accommodations that screamed wealth and prestige.Contractors and executives mingled in the grand lobby, their conversations a careful blend of business networking and social posturing.Faye stood near the floor-to-ceiling windows, admiring the mountain scenery when Katherine approached with an unusually bright smile."Faye! There you are!" Katherine exclaimed, her voice dripping with false warmth."Isn't this place absolutely gorgeous? We're so lucky to be here!"Faye turned, immediately struck by Katherine's overly friendly demeanor."Yes, it's beautiful. The company certainly knows how to treat its contractors.""Oh, we deserve it after all our hard work," Katherine said, linking her arm through Faye's as if they were old friends."Come on, let's grab some champagne and mingle with the executives."As they walked toward the bar, Faye couldn't shake her confusion. This is
