Twin Tormentors By RARE

Chapter 38

LEIGH-ARI

“I really don’t think we should do this.” Laura dragged her feet behind me as I continued pulling her in a busy street. Gazillion people milling around plus the dang high heels I had on made it all impossible to pull a full-grown human behind me.

“Relax. We will be gone for like a minute.” I contradicted pulling her further into the busy street

“At least we should go back and call that girl… Your girl guard. What’s her name again?” “Raquel? No way! What’s the fun in that?” She was kidding. I successfully got rid of Raquel and there was no way I was going to go back to her again. “The twins…” Oh hell no I wasn’t having any of that. Not when they ran off to God-knows where to do whatever it is they did during the day.

“Look,” I turned and held her by her arms. ” I know you are worried because they are scary with tats everywhere but I need this. They are always breathing down my neck and I never have time to myself. You won’t believe it, but I can’t even have a simple shower without them showing up and growling next to me. They are animals. But you are here, I am safe. Nothing i s going to happen to me and they won’t know that I slipped off for less than 5 minutes to watch the fountain of water.”

“Okay that sucks and I definitely think you need this! But remember this was your idea and you were dragging me behind you.” She said with a mischievous grin and I knew it was going to go crazy! That’s my girl.

“Yay!” I pulled her in a hug and off we ran. My heart was pounding a mile a second but I decided to play it off. I was going to enjoy this little moment with my girl and nothing was going to stop me. We ran off to the railings that overlooked the sea and watched as the water played from the huge building.

After a moment, we got tired and decided to hail a cab to the bar.

Everything was so good I couldn’t believe any of it. I was happy, free, content! With none of the twins glaring daggers at me or breathing down my neck!

VERNERO

“YOU CANNOT GIVE THE WHOLE EUROPE TO CATTANIO. I HAVE PROTECTED THE EAST WITH MY BLOOD FOR ALL THE YEARS, AND I GET PUNISHED FOR WHAT MY SUBORDINATES HAD DONE?” The meeting was heated, the table was filled with angry lords

who were clearly displeased with the changes.

“You failed to control your minions, Xander. And you left us no choice. Your side of Europe will be under Turantello and you will answer to Vernero from today on. He owns Europe now.”

“This isn’t fair.” Xander seethed from his seat, but there was no turning back. He had lost his reigns and he was now under my control. Enzo’s hand sought out from underneath and he held mine, silently congratulating me for acquiring the east. It wasn’t easy, but we had made i t this far. Now the whole of Europe was under my hand, my control spreading from nation to nation. Owning Europe was the biggest milestone, something even my father had failed to do during his times. We were aiming for the world, and, this was just a right step in the right direction.

A soft vibration called my attention and I fished my phone from my pocket. It was a call from Raquel. My brows bundled up and I felt a chill run down my spine.

“You seem to be occupied with something else, Lord Cattanio.” The chair of the underworld called out and I stealthily placed my phone back into my suit pocket and said nothing. I couldn’t trust myself to speak.

Lorenzo sensed my mood and tensed next to me.

The rest of the meeting lasted for 20 minutes as we were finalizing the agenda. But that 20 minutes felt like an eternity. By the time we were told to leave, I was out the door in a split
