CLEOPATRA

He groaned and broke the kiss. He placed a kiss on my forehead and rose to his feet.

He glanced at me. Then, he looked down to my thighs which were spread apart. I was dripping wet.

His lips raised at the corners in a smirk.

“Not yet, daredevil. Go on and take your bath," He patted my thighs, turned around and left.

My chest deflated. I laid on the bed, drained and breathing heavily. The room reeked of arousal.

    VALENTINE Marcelo had a smug look on his face. His eyes glinted, almost like he was teasing me. I looked away and began to leave for the doctor's office.“I was able to watch the CCTV footage…" My feet hung midair. I turned sharply."The CCTV footage of the area where Cleopatra's accident occured. Everything was erased. We could find nothing.” My hope deflated. My chest dropped. I folded my hands into a tight fist."You didn't do your work properly,” I said with gritted teeth. Marcelo's head fell low and he mumbled, “I'm sorry,Sir." I raked my hair roughly with my fingers and pummeled my fist on the wall burning with anger.“Get the doctor," I ordered him and turned in the direction that led to the car park. Marcelo took the other direction to the doctor's office. I got into the car and took my seat at the passenger side. I exhaled sharply. Being with me was truly exposing Cleopatra to lots of trouble. I can't let her go. If I do, they will come for her. I have to prote

    VALENTINE I felt her pain through our eye contact. Tears trickled down her eyes. It was as though she knew what I had done. Her gaze turned to a frightful one. Slowly, she lowered her head and kept crying. I got into my car and drove out. On my way out, I saw two body bags lying side by side. I guessed it was Andrei and his beloved. Halfway to the mansion, I got a call from Rossetti.“Your work isn't complete, Val." “I did what I wanted." “The job was to wipe out the family. The daughters are still breathing." I cringed. “I don't kill children. Your client should do the rest," I tightened my grip around the steering wheel.“That was part of your job. You have to complete it," Rossetti barked.“Too late. The kids are in safe hands," I said, happiness bloomed in me. I was glad that at least the children were in safe hands.I arrived at the mansion and ended the call. I marched to Rossetti's study. A deep frown was engraved in his face.“Who was it?" “You didn't do a clean job

    VALENTINE The temperature in the room was terribly hot. I felt suffocated in my outfit. I scanned the area, my target was nowhere to be found. I picked a flute of drink from the waitress. She threw me a cocky smile and winked at me.The walls vibrated at the loud sound of the classic blaring from the speaker. While I walked gingerly, scrutinizing the place. I felt a bump behind me. A small squeal followed and then a thud. I turned around. It was my target's little girl. She rubbed her forehead with a cute pout on her face. She looked up to me with a smile, “I'm sorry Sir," She apologized and tried to stand up. I stretched my hands to her. She chuckled and took my hands and rose to her feet.“Gabrielle…" I heard a young girl's voice, she was walking towards us. The little girl, Gabrielle, rolled her eyes.“Urgh, not again," She stomped her feet angrily.“There you are," A girl pushed her forward from the crowd. She caught her arm and giggled, “I caught you." She didn't

    CLEOPATRA I rounded up shopping and decided to check up on Aunt and Andrew. I boarded a taxi that stopped me at Aunt's place. The house was in ruins. Dirt littered around and furniture turned over. A part of the house had been completely demolished. "Aunt!!!! Andrew!!!!” My voice returned to me. No one was there. I walked out of the house to the neighborhood. I met an old lady, a kind neighbour of ours."Is that Cleopatra?” She screamed out in joy.“Yes ma'am." “Oh my dear. How are you doing? You came in late. Your Aunt and cousin have just moved away.”"Moved away?” I inquired. She nodded, "This morning, some men came around and took them away.” My heart beat accelerated. Took them away to where? I ran out of the house and quickly dialled Valentine's number. It wasn't going through. I tried to board a taxi but none would stop. Filled with worry, I began to walk down the road while trying to reach Valentine. I heard a car honk. I turned around to see a car driving

    VALENTINE How did she find her way into the room? I got the notice on my device during the meeting with Rossetti.“Keep the shitty phone down!!!" Rossetti scolded. I threw him a glare,”I have something to deal with." I called Marcelo.“Where are you?" “On my way to your house boss." With gritted teeth, “Hurry, She is in the room. Take her away and don't let her set her free." Marcelo responded and I hung up.“Is there a problem?" Rossetti asked, stroking his chin.“Nothing I can't deal with." He scoffed, “Keeping things from me, huh?" “Why have you called for this meeting?" “We have a deal.." “I'm out," I said with an eye roll.“You know you can't do that. I trust no one on this but you." “Great. Don't you owe me an apology?" I asked, my tone laced with annoyance from the last deal that left a stab on my lower a

    CLEOPATRA I gulped quickly. Saliva ran down the wrong pipe and choked me. I began to cough. His question threw me off guard He held my arm, “Are you okay?" His voice was thick with alarm. I nodded and looked up to him. Every bit of him showed that he was serious. A marriage? With who? Was he marrying me? But to whom?“Are you proposing?" I responded, my brows arched high. The corner of his lips cracked in a smirk. He stepped away from me with his hands on his waist "Propose? Do I need to propose?” I don't understand him."You were talking about marriage so maybe you are proposing marriage to…”"No,” He cut me short."I just wanted to hear your thoughts about having a marriage. How do you want it to be?” He leaned against the metal rails, his handsome orbs trained on me. My lips fell in disappointment."Jerk.” He caught my wrist and reeled me close to him. A sharp gasp left my lips when he pressed my body against his and wrapped his hands around my waist."Say that one

    VALENTINE She wouldn't survive it. A loud voice snickered repeatedly in my head. I could see my younger self standing behind my father with tears filling my eyes and afraid to let it out. The doctor had just announced my mother's death after five minutes into the surgery.

    CLEOPATRA Margaret walked in a few minutes after I ate the last bite of the bread and omelette. Her eyes glistened with a kind of warm glow.“Dress up, Madam. I have something to show you." Resonating her warmth, I jumped to my feet instantly."Can you sw

    VALENTINE I noticed the terror in her voice. Her grip tightened around me. A need to protect her recoursed through me. I held her strongly afraid that she could slip out of my hold."Who?” I demanded."Don Rossini.” I reclined into the chair. My hands lo

    VALENTINE "What do you want, Adelina?” I rasped hoarsely and opened up the closet where I had kept some clothes."Valentine, why do you act like you don't know what I need?” Her voice burned with desire.“I'm still your boss. You could get excommunicated for this," I p
