Chapter Thirty Six

Valerio’s POV

I’d told myself I wouldn’t touch her again.

Not after the way she looked at me in that basement wide-eyed, terrified, seeing the monster everyone else already knew I was.

But the moment she walked into that club wearing that trench coat, her perfume clinging to the air like sin, I knew I was already lost.

She wasn’t supposed to be there.

And I wasn’t supposed to care.

Yet, the second I saw her laughing softly at her phone, cheeks flushed, lips curved in that dangerous smile… something inside me snapped.

That pilot’s voice echoing through the lounge didn’t help.

“You look stunning… like an angel.”

My angel.

I’d barely realized I was moving until I was standing in front of her, my blood boiling. I didn’t care about the people watching or the way Spider froze mid-step.

I just saw red.

And her.

Her eyes widened when she saw me, her lips parting like she couldn’t decide whether to speak or run.

Then that man’s face appeared on her cracked screen. Smiling.

    Chapter Forty SixSandra’s POVThe silence inside the small office was thick.The air smelled of coffee gone cold, and the low hum of the ceiling fan made the room feel strangely alive. Brian stood by the desk, flipping through a folder, while I tried to stop my heart from pounding.He looked so calm, too calm like a man who had seen enough chaos to learn how to hide it well.“Anything?” I asked softly, breaking the silence.He didn’t answer at first. Just flipped another page, his brow furrowing slightly. Then, he exhaled through his nose. “No entry records under Elena’s name,” he said. “But… there’s something odd.”He turned the logbook around so I could see. My eyes followed his finger as it pointed to a signature at the bottom of a page.“Elena Alvarez visitor clearance,” it read. But the date was three days ago.“That’s impossible,” I whispered. “She disappeared five days ago.”He nodded slowly. “Exactly.”The realization hit me like a cold slap. Someone had signed her name a

    Chapter Forty FiveSandra’s POVMy hands were still trembling on the steering wheel.The headlights from the monster Ford were too bright, flooding through my cracked windshield, blinding me until I could barely see anything but light and panic. I swallowed hard, forcing myself to breathe.I could hear footsteps approaching measured, heavy, confident.“Step out of the car,” a voice said from outside.Deep. Calm. Controlled.The kind of voice that didn’t shout to sound dangerous it already was.I wiped my palms on my jeans and slowly opened the door. The night air hit me cold against my sweaty skin. I stepped out, my heart beating so loud it almost drowned the sound of the engines idling behind him.When my eyes adjusted, I saw him.A young man, maybe in his late twenties. Tall, broad-shouldered, with dark hair that curled slightly at the ends and a stubble that made him look like someone too serious for his age. His shirt was half-rolled at the sleeves, his boots covered in dust and

    Chapter Forty FourSandra’s POVTwo days.Forty-eight long hours.And still no sign of Elena.At first, I tried to tell myself it wasn’t strange. She could’ve gone to the club. She could’ve stayed at her father’s place. She could’ve been busy, tired, or just needed space.But by the second night, that excuse stopped working.My calls went unanswered. Her phone went straight to voicemail. The last message I sent still sat on “delivered,” not “read.” And that alone told me something was very, very wrong.I sat on my bed, phone in hand, staring at our last chat. The little heart emoji she’d sent me two nights ago. The one that had felt like any other day.“Elena,” I whispered, scrolling up. “Where the hell are you?”Outside, Abuja’s night lights blinked faintly through my curtain. The street was quiet, too quiet, except for a distant car horn and the whine of the generator from next door. My room was filled with open books and an untouched cup of coffee that had gone cold hours ago.I

    Chapter Forty ThreeElena’s POVThe sun felt different here.It was sharp and golden, painting everything in blinding light. Even the air seemed heavier, filled with dust and heat that clung to the skin like silk and smoke mixed together.I followed him.Not because I wanted to not anymore but because his silence left no room for choice.Valerio walked ahead of me across the runway, tall and composed, every step sharp with control. The desert wind caught the edge of his shirt, fluttering it slightly, but even that looked deliberate like the world itself knew better than to mess with him.I tried to keep my distance, but somehow I kept matching his pace. My sandals clicked against the pavement, the sound too loud in the emptiness between us.He turned once.Just once.His eyes found me cold, sharp, and full of a kind of disgust that burned deeper than anger. I froze where I stood.“Get her decent,” he said flatly, his voice cutting through the wind. “Now.”No name. No emotio

    Chapter FortyTwoValerio’s POVThe vodka burned from tongue to gut and did nothing.I tipped the bottle again, empty sound rattling at the lip, and set it down with more restraint than I felt. The suite was too quiet for the kind of anger crawling under my skin. It begged for glass to shatter, for something heavy to hit a wall, for a neck to snap.I didn’t indulge it. I stood very still and breathed, like a man holding a trigger at half-pull.Sophia’s perfume still clung to the air, sharp, sugary, entitled. Luka’s cologne, cheaper, reckless. Their noise had been swept out the door with them, but their words stayed behind like smoke. A thief and a slut. Pathetic. Worthless. I could still hear the slap. I could still see the tilt of the bottle in Luka’s hand, the way the vodka ran cold across her shoulders and she didn’t cry until after.I should have thrown them both out sooner.“Out,” I’d said when I opened the door to find them circling her like carrion. I didn’t raise my voice.

    Chapter Forty One Elena’s POV My tears wouldn’t stop. They came fast and hot, streaming down my cheeks as if they could wash away the horror sitting in my chest. I could barely breathe, barely think only feel the ache spreading through every inch of me. “Please,” I whispered, my voice cracking. “Valerio, if you’re the one behind what’s happening to my father… if you’re the reason he’s suffering… please, I’m begging you, let him go.” He stood across the room, his back half-turned, his posture sharp and rigid. His hands were buried in his pockets, his head tilted just slightly, like he was forcing himself to keep calm. The faint light from the chandelier painted his face in gold and shadow, but his eyes his eyes were empty. I dropped to my knees, clutching the hem of his coat. “Please,” I cried louder, desperation tearing my throat raw. “He’s done nothing wrong! He’s old, sick whatever debt or grudge you have, please, take it out on me instead. Just spare him!” He look
