Even Azzura herself had become strangely drawn into the horrifying story like it was a map that would direct her into what her life would be like after this…well it was a story about the event the night of her birth so she should be intrigued.

“That night as I was in labor I couldn't focus because my whole body screamed danger, I called for your father and told him what I felt and he confirmed to me also that he he got a confirmation, a direct letter from the assassins which contains a black en

    Another demanded whiskey older than himself as a third requested wine imported from another continent.Every request was fulfilled immediately as some drank to celebrate victory the others drank to bury disappointment, either way the bartenders remained professional.While dancers twisted slowly around chrome poles bathed in crimson light enticing clients who can be considered perverts.The entertainment section carried an entirely different atmosphere.Red lights dominated the area as music pulsed softly through hidden speakers while the dancers moved with confidence and precision.Every movement drew attention and each turn attracted another pair of eyes, while some customers watched openly, others pretended not to watch.Yet all of them remained captivated.“She is so good at this…I should take her home you know.”“Look at that waist”The comments floated through the air as several men admired the performance.Laughter followed.Drinks were ordered.Money exchanged hands.The night

    The thought amused him slightly because Mr Giovanni was known for elegance.Tradition and Authority.Francesco's casual appearance represented none of those things at least on the surface.“Well that's his business, his time has passed now it's mine to enjoy” Francesco said as he head out of the room.A certainty that his generation would do things differently, a certainty that the future belonged to him now and he does not give a damn.The underground corridor stretched ahead as both men began walking side by side while their footsteps echoed softly through the hall.Behind them Mufasa remained standing near the doorway, silently watching them leave.“Let's go Diego”THE CASINOSnow fell heavily over the frozen streets of Vladivostok with cars and people moving to and fro different destinations.The city looked almost lifeless beneath the harsh Russian winter, yet beneath that blanket of snow, life continued relentlessly. White flakes drifted endlessly from the dark heavens above, co

    Several guards further down the hallway immediately looked toward the source of the roar before quickly looking away again.No one wanted unnecessary attention from either Francesco or his lion.“Come on Mufasa you don't have to worry about this, I won't spend so much time up there just some few hours and I will be back, trust me” Francesco said as he scratched Mufasa by the head.The lion immediately lowered its head slightly as its eyes softened even though it still appeared unconvinced.Francesco continued gently rubbing the thick fur around Mufasa's neck and for a few moments the tension disappeared completely.At that moment it was simply a boy and the animal that had remained beside him through everything.“I can't have you tag along so we won't have to cast out location….you know we are laying low for now to avoid steady attacks for now till we find our feet in this world we found ourselves now,” Francesco said as he went on his knee.The movement surprised even Diego, that the

    The instruction was direct and there was no uncertainty attached to it as the countdown had already begun.“Also I need you to look into those names Sergie gave to us in the interrogation room, I need you to do a thorough research on those guys…I mean every single thing you can find about them from their real names, down to their ancestry, I need every one of them,” Francesco said in a serious voice as he kept walking with Diego right behind taking notes.The request was extensive, but Diego was not surprised because this was exactly how Francesco operated.He never accepted surface-level information, he wanted everything from hustories to connections.Weaknesses and the strengths.Family ties.Financial records.Every detail could become useful.Every detail could become a weapon.“Alright sir I will do that” Diego carefully memorized every instruction.“Also I need you to look into this Dmitry guy for me, get me every single Intel you can lay your hands on” Francesco said.That req

    Finally he lowered his head.“Yes she does sir”Francesco nodded slowly like the answer seemed to settle something in his mind.“Then it is settled” Francesco said as he signals Mufasa who had been waiting patiently to do what it knows how to do best.The lion immediately rose from its resting position, its movement alone caused Sergei's stomach to tighten.The massive beast commanded attention without effort and it's presence alone filled the room with that calmness that somehow made it even more frightening.“You have him for yourself” Francesco said and instantly Mufasa pounced on the man, tearing every single skin on his body and crushing every bones.“Ahhhhh save me please, help me” the man screamed but before he could scream again Mufasa bit down on his throat and with one full swing he broke the man's neck instantly ripping out his esophagus and so the, the man died.The atmosphere inside the room changed immediately as panic instantly spread through the prisoner's face, desper

    That was not what he expected, not at all.“What..why are you so surprised, or is it that you are lying?” Francesco asked as he bent down looking straight at the man in the face.The question landed heavily as Sergei's heartbeat immediately accelerated while his thoughts raced because one wrong answer could destroy everything.“Of course not sir I won't dare do such when my life can be taken any time?” Sergei said.His response came quickly, sounded sincerely or at least it sounded sincere.“If you aren't then you should not keep that face at all, but then before any further movements I would love to know, how exactly did you get this Intel?” Francesco asked and like an arrow shot directly at Sergei he shook at those words from Francesco.The question hit harder than expected so much harder as the fear on Sergei's face became instantly visible.His eyes shifted that even his breathing changed and that slight reaction did not escape Francesco's notice.Nor Dmitry's.Nor Diego's.Some

    “At least now I have you guys” his hand touched the lion pendant “and Mufasa here to help me grow and achieve my goals faster.”The giant beast beside him lifted its head proudly as it's golden eyes shone brightly.Then Francesco turned toward another person standing inside the room “and Mr. Pietro

    Seeing this Mufasa instinctively stepped closer to Francesco as its protective instincts kicked in immediately. The giant beast remained alert while its eyes never left the robots.Francesco on the side however remained calm as his curiosity had completely overcome any concern.The robots stopped

    “Did you just laugh sir?” Mr Pietro asked, the shock in his voice was impossible to hide.Francesco raised an eyebrow.“What?”Mr. Pietro pointed at him dramatically.“No, no, no!” his voice echoed through the room.“Did you actually just laugh?” The old advisor looked genuinely stunned, this was

    The tension in the room grew as nobody moved or spoke, and then suddenly all seven robots dropped to one knee simultaneously.THUD!The synchronized movement echoed throughout the chamber as their heads lowered respectfully, and in a perfect unison they spoke.“Master Francesco”The sound sent chil
