Chapter 133: Getting him back

"Nothing serious," Daniel assured her. "Luca and I are on our way back now. But Rosa.... what have you done? I'm hearing some wild stories about missing heirs and ultimatums."

Anya shifted uncomfortably as though he were there. It seems what she had done had found ts way to him. If it had found its way to him, that means his family also knew. But she was not ashamed of what she did.

To his question, Anya snorted. "Let's just say I've been keeping busy while you were away. I may

or may not have taken some people. Is that bad?"

Daniel's chuckle was warm and familiar. "That's my girl. I'll see you soon, love."

As the call ended, Anya took a deep breath, composing herself before turning back to face the captives. The coldness was back in her eyes, but there was a hint of satisfaction in her smile

now.

"Well, gentlemen," she announced, "it seems today is your lucky day. Your fathers have seen reason, and my husband is safe. You'll be released to your families shortly."

The relief on the young men's faces was palpable. But Anya wasn't finished.

"However," she continued, her tone sharpening, "it is best if your families are not so trusting

of the commission next time."

How could Anya leave without showing discord? From torturing the boys, she had understood that the false information about them came from the commission. The commission manipulated them to hunt down Daniel, or else small families like theirs would never dare. She nodded to Marco and the other guards. "Get them ready for transport. I want them out of here within the hour."
