    CamillaI stared at the ceiling listlessly. I had been awake for hours and had been doing since. So I was definitely still tired because I hadn't gotten much sleep. I slipped out of bed and went down for breakfast or normalcy. Or whatever passed for it in this house. The moment I stepped into the dining room, my mood soured further. Isabella was already there, back from her family visit. She sat beside Lucas and was saying something to him with a smile on her face. The sight of her made irritation flare hot in my chest.She was back. Of course she was back. I wasn't happy about it at all, her presence only complicated everything, adding another layer of tension and resentment to this already suffocating house. Her dark eyes flicked up to meet mine as I entered, carrying an unmistakable displeasure that matched my own. I felt her gaze rake over me like physical touch, cataloging every detail of my appearance, searching for any sign of weakness or change in my absence. I didn't care.

    Camilla I lay still in the big bed measuring my breaths carefully. I knew when the door opened and I knew who entered. His smell was quite distinctive and it made no sense for my body to respond to it but it did. I had been trying to sleep after what had happened when I heard Lucas's care come in. I had no idea he would try to come into his father's room but he did. So now I waited, counting my breaths, until I heard the door close again with another soft click. Only then did I open my eyes. I found out my slip had shifted during my feigned sleep and was exposing more skin than I was comfortable with so I pulled it up and got down from the bed to follow Lucas.I eased the door open just a crack, peering into the dimly lit hallway and saw Lucas walking away. Why was I doing this? Every rational part of my mind screamed at me to go back to bed, to forget whatever madness had taken hold of me. But my feet kept moving, carrying me out into the corridor with a will of their own.I foll

    LucasI had received a call from Ivan earlier this evening. They had found Dario. I put a lighted cigarette in my mouth. Took them long enough.I told them to put him in the black room. Different from where his friend had died. Ivan was waiting outside with an umbrella,as the rain was drizzling, when I got there.He took one look at me and shook his head like he knew I was making trouble again. "He's ready," Ivan said simply, giving me a tray to stub my cigarette. " We have taught him a few lessons so I think he has had plenty of time to think about his choices."I nodded and went inside. Dario was tied to a metal chair in the center of the room. Interestingly, Ivan's idea of a few lessons was a swollen face, two bursted fingers and a bursted knee. Two of my men stood guard nearby, their expressions professionally blank. Dario looked up as I approached, his eyes widening with recognition and terror."Lucas," he rasped. "Whatever they told you...."I held up a hand, cutting him off w

    LucasCamilla sat rigid in the passenger seat beside me. The dress I had given her had ridden up her thighs, exposing the pale skin that called my attention to them everytime. Her bare feet were tucked awkwardly beneath her. She hadn't said a single word after she had asked me that question and I wondered what she was thinking.I allowed myself a small, private smile in the darkness of the car. This night was just the beginning of my laid down plans. It had taken months of careful orchestration, of pulling a lot of strings. It started from the day I realized that my father had someone close to him. He had tried to hide it from him, he had tried to hide his obsession over this red haired woman but he hadn't known that hatred run deeper than blood. It's why I knew Camilla's name. It's why I had taken her that night. And Sophia, the girl from the club was also orchestrated. Although everything else was true, I had known that Camilla won't resist saving her. She was quite dumb in that

    CamillaThere was nothing gentle about this kiss. Lucas kissed me like he’d been starving for it. His hand tightened on my chin, holding me exactly where he wanted me, while the other slammed against the wall beside my head. I tasted anger and hunger on his tongue as it swept into my mouth, claiming, demanding. A low growl rumbled from his chest when I bit his lip in retaliation.My body betrayed me instantly. Heat exploded low in my belly, slick and urgent, and I arched against him before I could stop myself. The thin red dress was no barrier at all. I could feel every hard inch of him pressed against me, his thigh still wedged between my legs from how he’d pinned me. My nipples scraped against his chest with every ragged breath, aching.I hated how good it felt. I hated him.I shoved at his shoulders, but my fingers curled into his jacket instead, pulling him closer. A whimper slipped out of me when he angled his head and deepened the kiss, devouring me like he wanted to consume eve

    Camilla We slipped out the estate. Lucas knew every corner without cameras and Elijah was nowhere in sight. I swear I still didn't understand that man. We took a path to a waiting car far from the main gate. "You shouldn't have dragged Elena into this," he said after a while of driving. "If Cassio finds out she talked..." "I didn't drag her. She wants to be free," I said. "And you are helping, so stop acting like you don't care." He glanced at me. "I wouldn't use the word care, princess. Don't be deceived." I looked at him. What was he going on about? He shifted the topic and began to talk about the plan. He had gone to the Garden yesterday night to scout. There was a blind spot in the east wall. Thirty seconds every hour when the cameras moved. Guards who took cigarette breaks at certain times. I listened carefully, memorizing every detail. Lucas kept his eyes on the dark road ahead, his hands tight on the wheel. The car hummed low, cutting through the night like a knife. M

Ivan and Dante tied him to a chair with his wrist bound to the back.I pulled up another chair and sat down across from him. Ivan stood by the door. Dante leaned against the wall near the table of to

    LucasI left the mansion immediately and put a call through to Ivan and Dante to meet me at ecplise in thirty minutes. We had a traitor to catch. Marco hadn't been on duty that night when the cargo was stolen, so I wondered how he did it. Were they really only two?Camilla's theory sounded ridiculo

    Camilla The door closed behind Isabella as she left me alone with promise of her threat hanging in the air.I pressed my palms against my eyes until I saw stars. I should probably follow Lucas anyway but the last time I did that I killed someone. I always put someone in danger. Maybe Lucas was rig

    Camilla I was in my room when I finally came to. I sat up, struggling to remember what happened before I blacked out. My throat was raw from all the screaming I had done. I reached for the water by my bedside and drank it greedily. My hands were still trembling. I had been so scared, God help
