Chapter 31

VERNERO POV

It was a little after 7 when I decided it was time to leave Leigh’s room. She was sleeping soundly and I felt like watching her was just going to disturb her peaceful rest. Enzo had long gone, left me to myself as I insisted on watching over her.

Somehow just sitting here, watching as she took small peaceful breaths gave me a sense of relief, made me forget for a minute how badly I fucked up. I didn’t want to put the blame on anyone or anything else. It was with my ignorance that she passed out. Had I checked the system well, things wouldn’t be like this. The harder I thought about it, the more I felt like I needed to skin someone alive,

With that, I left.

I went straight into the monitoring room and checked the surveillance. I had to be sure of what happened. And if someone actually dared to turn up the temperature… Oh Lord, help them!

To my surprise, there really was no one. The only people who went to the sauna today were Enzo, and me. Even Valerie saw from the surveillance room that Leigh passed out.

Now, this meant one thing; The system did have a small error.

I let out a loud growl as I slammed my fists angrily on the keyboards that were on the table, earning me a yelp from the guy sitting next to me.

I left without further ado and quickly dialed Ciello’s phone number. The phone clicked as he answered on the third ring:

“Boss?”

“I want whoever that was in contact with Leigh-Ari in 30 minutes, chained in the dungeons,” I commanded as I ran to my office to ready myself for what came next.

“Done, Boss.” He replied cutting the call. Upon reaching my office, I walked into my private bathroom and stood under the icy cold shower. The cold sprays of water cleared my mind, numbed my body, removed all the unwanted thoughts that may lead me to failure. I had hurt one person I cared about the most. Someone had to suffer for all she did. And I was going to inflict the pain very, very, well.

30 minutes on the clock, my phone rang and it was Ciello. I smiled and picked it up, loyal to his words, he had everyone that talked to Leigh today.

It was about to go crazy!
