Adrian POVMrs. Falcone’s words stayed in my head “They’ve already voted.”I stared at her, unable to understand what I had just heard.Then I asked with a confused voice “Voted for what?”Her eyes softened, and she said in a polite voice, “For your death.”Hearing it, my stomach dropped. How could she say something like that with a polite voice like it's not a very serious matter!For a few seconds, I couldn't move and the study suddenly felt smaller. The bookshelves, the dark wooden desk, the photographs on the walls everything seemed to close in around me.Luca stepped forward and said with hesitation “Mrs. Falcone, what are you doing here? Boss doesn't like it when you come here.”She looked at him calmly and said with a smiling face “He deserves to know.”I finally found my voice and asked “Who?”Mrs. Falcone didn't answer immediately. Instead, she walked toward the desk and placed one hand on the edge and said “Not everyone in the Falcone family wants you dead, Adrian.”Well, I w
Adrian POVThe words echoed through the room "Tell Victor Falcone, his own family wants Adrian dead."For a second, no one moved. When I looked at Victor, his expression didn't change and that was the frightening part. His face remained perfectly calm, but something dark settled behind his eyes.Luca broke the silence first "The sniper refused to say anything else."Victor buttoned his jacket over the fresh bandage on his shoulder and asked with a cold voice "Where is he?"Luca replied "In the basement."Victor asked again in his cold voice "Alive?"Luca said with hesitation "Barely."Victor nodded once and said "Good."Then he walked toward the door and I stepped in front of him and said with determination "I'm coming."His eyes met mine and he said with gritted teeth "No."I insisted "I'm involved now."He argued "That's exactly why you're staying here."I folded my arms and murmured "You keep saying that."He continued "And you keep ignoring me."I said with gritted teeth "Because l
Adrian POVThe sound of shattering glass echoed through the penthouse and Victor's arm tightened around my waist as he pulled me behind the couch. The impact knocked the air from my lungs and my heart pounded so hard I could barely hear anything else.Victor kept one arm firmly around me while reaching inside his jacket with his other hand and a black gun appeared in his hand and his entire expression changed, it became cold and deadly.He barked "Luca!" Luca was already moving and crouched beside the broken window, staying below the frame and he said in a panicked voice "Sniper attack!" Victor nodded once and said in a cold voice "I know."Another loud crack split the air and the second bullet punched through the wall above us and pieces of plaster scattered across the floor.I instinctively ducked lower and Victor immediately pulled me closer against his chest and said in a concerned voice "Stay down."I murmured with a panicked voice "I'm trying."I looked up at him and asked with
Adrian POVLuca’s voice was still in my ear “Isabella’s missing.”The words hit the room like a gunshot and Victor’s entire expression changed instantly, every trace of emotion disappeared behind his cold face.He asked with his cold voice “When?” Luca stepped farther into the penthouse and said with hesitation “About an hour ago.”Victor grabbed his coat and asked with an angry voice “Who was with her?”Luca replied nervously “One driver and two guards.”Victor narrowed his eyes and asked “And?”Luca hesitated for some time then said “The guards are unconscious.”The room became silent instantly.I watched Victor carefully, his movements stayed calm but I could see the tension in his shoulders.His reaction was not from anger but fear because no matter what happened between them, Isabella was still his daughter.Victor looked toward me briefly and ordered “Stay here.”What the hell! Who did he think I was?I frowned and said with determination “I’m coming.”He said firmly “No.”I ins
Adrian POVThe words stayed in the air like a bomb nobody wanted to touch “But apparently your taste in men didn’t.”I glanced at Victor and saw that his expression was colder than I had ever seen it.Valentina leaned casually against the counter, completely relaxed, while the atmosphere around us turned sharp enough to cut skin.Victor said calmly “It ended years ago.” Valentina said with a soft smile “Yes, but you never looked at me the way you look at him.”My chest tightened instantly. I didn't know why I listened to their conversation. But I couldn't move.Victor’s gaze darkened and he warned her with an angry voice “Valentina!”But she only laughed quietly and said “What? You think I can’t see it?”Well, I don't know what they are talking about and I have no interest in being part of their conversation.I stepped back slightly and said with hesitation “This conversation feels like something I shouldn’t be part of.”Valentina replied before Victor could speak “You definitely sho
Adrian POVVictor’s words stayed in my head long after the room went silent “They were waiting for you.”For a moment, I couldn’t speak or think properly. They were waiting at my apartment, my home. The small place where I had spent years trying to build a normal life but now Romano’s men had broken into it like it meant nothing.Victor watched my face carefully and said “You’re staying here.”This time, it didn’t sound like an order but a request.I ran a hand through my hair slowly and asked “Did they take anything?”He answered “No.”Victor set his phone down on the counter and said “They searched the apartment.”A cold feeling settled in my stomach and I said with a panicked voice “They were looking for me.”He nodded and said “Yes.”I looked away toward the rain-covered windows, the city lights blurred together outside and everything suddenly felt distant.Victor stepped closer after a moment and called me “Adrian.”I swallowed once before looking back at him and said “You knew th
Adrian POVThere were three men but none of them looked like accountants or businessmen or anyone I wanted to have a conversation with in a dark street. The one in front of me stepped closer and asked with an angry voice “Will you come quietly?”Not again, he really sent people to threaten me agai
Adrian POVMy first day working under Victor Falcone started with silence. It’s not normal silence but the kind where everyone pretends to work while secretly watching you.I could feel their eyes the moment I walked into the office floor. Some people whispered and some looked confused.One woman op
Adrian’s POVI stepped outside the mansion and took a deep breath and the cold night air filled my lungs. The party music sounded distant now.I loosened my tie slightly and murmured “Finally escape?” When I turned, I saw Isabella standing in the doorway with a teasing smile.She said with her tea
Adrian’s POVThe music was too loud. I stood near the balcony door, holding a glass of juice I hadn’t touched. People moved around me in expensive clothes. Laughter filled the room, Glasses clinked and Slow music played in the room. I felt like I didn’t belong here. My fingers tightened slightly ar
