The dinner was silent.

And Louisa hated every bit of the suffocating tension between them.

Only the cutlery clinked against the plates and the intense look he had pinned on her as she brought the fork to her mouth in a robotic motion.

He was yet to realize her betrayal but she’d just found something shocking that had her rethinking every single thing that had gone down in the past months.

He knew her even before she ever met him. He stalked her or probably had men taking photos of every single thing she did.

Once in the kitchen a couple of minutes later, with hands stiff under the cold running faucet and lost in the storm that was her mind, only Alessandro’s warm hold on her waist pulled her back.

“We shouldn't hide things from each other” His thumb rubbed her midriff subtly.

“We did anyway,” she scoffed.

He spun her around and cupped her face in his palm. “I–” he faltered to search for the right words. “I only happened to witness that bastard raise his voice at you in public a

    Alessandro stood at his bedroom patio the next morning, hands fused into his pocket as the cold morning breeze wafted through him like a mocking reminder of the storm and ache waging a war in his chest. He was all dressed up in something casual and ready to drive out of the villa that had turned into hell for him in the past twelve hours. He hadn't even checked up on Louisa. Stepping into the bedroom two doors away would mean peeling off scabs from a fresh injury.His phone rang in his pocket and when he reached for it, Eric’s number was displayed. “What's the report?” His voice was ragged like wheels grinding on stones.“Get here now, Don. We are fucked.” The door slammed shut behind Alessandro as he forced his legs down to the room Louisa had spent the night in. He knocked once. Twice. Thrice. Only silence and the echoes of the heavy thump of his knuckle on the door responded. “Louisa,” He called, her name tasting like something bittersweet in his mouth.With his patience runn

    Bang!The retort’s steel door shut with a cold slam, fire crackling from behind the hot furnace as Alessandro stood a few distances away with both hands tight in his pocket. The air was thick with an acrid smell oozing from the retort. “The car’s been towed to the scrap yard, everything appears to be quite normal except those cops down there.” Eric stood next to him, mirroring his rigid stance. “You know what they need” “I’ll have their twenty percent wired and they should be on their way.” Alessandro began moving and Eric followed, their footsteps thudding in sync down the empty crematorium space while the retort rumbled faintly behind. He pushed the door open and got out into the scrapyard covered with heaps of metals and broken car parts littered across the grounds. Two police men in uniforms stood at the corner chugging down beer and chatting lowly between themselves. “What's the report?” Alessandro asked as soon as he approached them. The first man tipped his beer glas

    “Remember the deal, Louisa. If you love Alessandro, you won't warn him” Gleb flashed her a smile, his hand sliding up to her thigh but she was quick to swat it off, hands tight on her bag. He smirked, reached for his contact card, and slid it into her hands. She bolted out of the car immediately, slammed it shut, and watched it zoom away. Her lashes fluttered and tears rolled down her cheek. Dabbing her eyes off she turned to stare at the building right in front of her. She was at the city hospital. The backlit LED lettering displayed the hospital's name in silver hues—clean and modern. Through the transparent glass door, she could see the nurses move about, and a few other people her mind could barely even comprehend moved by in a blur. “Lilian Delaney, please” she said to one of the nurses as soon as she stepped into the nurse's station. She had no idea how she could wear a pretentious look to Alessandro once she was back at the Villa. Not after giving in to those men’

    One after the other, Louisa’s eyes followed the men who filed out after locking the briefcases stashed with cash. She was now alone in the room with just the unfamiliar man backing her on the table and dragging smokes from a thick cigarette stick. “I'm inviting you to sit, Louisa,” the man said, gesturing towards one of the vacant chairs. Her legs remained unmoving. Heart thumping. “You know my name and it's only right I know yours” He didn't respond right away—only the soft burn of his cigarette did. With resignation, she stealthily turned on her phone to alert Alessandro, but before she could send her text, the doorknob turned and someone stepped in. Before she could glance over her shoulders, her arm was seized again by a callous palm and her body hauled forward. “It's you…from the banquet?” She whispered amidst struggling to break free from his grasp. It was the same man whom Alessandro had shot when he wouldn't stop making crazy insinuations about her, and here he w

    Louisa stood in the park—A hospital’s park. It was mid-afternoon now. Patients strolled about. Birds chirped and the wind blew. This was where Eve had asked them to meet without any further information. Now she waited, her red dress from earlier still on as she made little to no effort to change. “Did I keep you out here for long?” She heard and snapped her head up. Her heart skipped. Eve looked different. She was paler and skinnier than she’d ever known. Louisa watched her approach with a nasal cannula attached to her nostrils, an IV pole rolling in her left hand, and a bonnet on. “Eve?” “Louisa.” she cracked a smile. Once she was near, Louisa drew her into a hug. She felt so fragile and bony and without another word to each other, they both walked to a bench and sat. “You look so beautiful, Louisa. I'm glad to see you again.” Eve said with a tight-lipped smile. Louisa’s shoulders sagged as she forced a smile. Whatever she looked like physically was only a farce co
