Chapter 57

XANDER POV

Feeling utterly spent, I plopped myself on the lush bed in a hotel room which was rented under the name of some innocent citizen who had no idea how cruel this world is. Although I was a prick who felt guilty for not feeling guilty, pointing a gun and threatening the poor lady didn’t sit well with me. But I couldn’t use my own name; else the renowned Cattanio Twins would find me in a split second and eunuchize me without a second thought.

Toying with them had been the best thing ever. I knew the east was well off gone, and as much as I hated to admit it, they did a good job at running the underworld shit. I was tired honestly. The blood on my hands was crying out loud, haunting me every day and night. I knew I couldn’t just leave; I was part of this world now and there was no going back. It was that kind of a thing that once you are in, there’s no going back. It was a vicious hole where you just kept falling and falling and falling deeper into the bottomless abyss.

Having the twins take the east had reduced the burden off my shoulder, now I had a few things to run, and most importantly, I had time to myself. For the very first time since the beginning of forever, I felt alive again. And that’s all thanks to the twins. Not that I would go tell them that! Oh hell no! Our feud was something that wasn’t going to end today or even tomorrow.

One thing I admired about them was their love for their girl. The naïve little sweetheart was s o alluring one couldn’t help falling in love with her. And when Lorik came to me telling me that he wants her dead, I had been so surprised. Leigh-Ari was naively cute and so warm. I didn’t find the reasons why someone would want to kill her. So with that in mind, I made sure to keep tabs on her. It was the first time I did that and I couldn’t even give find an answer to why I decided to drag the mission and not just get done with it.

Unbeknownst to me, the little girl grew deep in me. She grew so big I actually got addicted to those little visits I made into her bedroom when her men were out. Although I let Lorik believe that he had the upper hand, I concluded that nothing bad was going to happen to her. Leigh-Ari didn’t deserve all of this. She deserved an uncomplicated life, somewhere far away from here, where she took care of her patients without all the care in the world. The mafia vendetta and fiasco were something she was well off without.

A sudden quick beeping of my pager had me tearing off the bed where I was laying on my back. I reached for the side table and picked up the small device, powered it on, and cursed out loud!

“Shit!”

The fucker decided to take action. I had known long ago that he was going to take matters into his hands and so I prepared myself in advance. The beep was a signal that the nanochip I had planted on Leigh-Ari’s vanity was attached to her body. Not only was it an alarm, but it

was a tracker.

I ran to the wardrobe and quickly armed myself, put on the bulletproof vest. Once I was well loaded and steeled, I ran to the window and pushed it open, then jumped out. Had it been anyone, they’d have shattered their skulls spilling their brains all over the concrete ground. But I smoothly on my feet at the hard ground behind the hotel. I quickly fished my phone from the pocket and shot a quick text to the twins. I don’t care whether we were enemies, but Leigh-Ari was in danger.

And I wasn’t going to sit back and watch from the sidewalks! 1

VERNERO POV

My eyes landed on Enzo who was utterly oblivious to my temper tantrum. Although I hated being pampered by him at times, him being fully unfazed by my outburst kind of stung me a bit. I was expecting him to sit next to me and calm down like he always did. But instead, he ignored me completely. I smashed bottles to gain his attention, cursed out loud, but he didn’t even badge. Just sat there with his eyes closed and unfinished whiskey in his hand.

That only added up to the riling storm inside me. I grew even angrier. The thought of Xander made me tremble violently in my seat. I wanted to cry because my brother wasn’t having any pity on me. It was as if he told himself he wasn’t going to dance to my guitar this time. But deep down I knew I needed him to calm down. I needed his power, his energy to dilute the tornado in me. 1
