Daisy:

We're in the car, headed to God knows where. Kaiden didn't reveal anything about where we're going, a fact that's been annoying me since we left the boutique.

After tagging along with him to check on shipments and waiting in receptions during his meetings, I thought that would be the end of the day.

Wrong.

Instead, here I am in a dress and heels going to an undisclosed location. Well, I'm not too mad at the outfit though. The shimmering material feels like silk on my skin and flows down my body like a wave.

The gold straps of my heels wind around my calf in a surprisingly comfortable way. I catch my reflection in the car window. My braids are in a bun at the top of my head and the makeup accentuates my features.

Kaiden sits across from me, but I ignore him as I've been doing since we left the last location. I feel his heavy gaze as he waits for me to acknowledge his presence.

"We're headed to Vitalis Palace." His voice comes as a low murmur.

Vitalis Palace, the epitome of exclu

  • The Mafia Don's Revenge   Crimson Knuckles.

    Kaiden: I kill the ignition and step out of the car. Andreas is waiting, on his face is a pinched expression. To find Erebus, I have decided to separate my most trusted associates within Kyklos. Giving each of them specific assignments at given times. Andreas is vetting his men. As the head of security, the fact that Erebus has such a sway over the security personnel of Kyklos puts his authority under my scrutiny. Recently, he reported suspicious movement in one of my lesser-used warehouses. I had forgotten about this one, truthfully. It was one of my father's favourite spots to carry out torture and eventually murder. A vast expanse of land stretched out on either side of it. When I became heir, I decided that travelling such a distance for torture was tedious. Why come all the way here, when I have a basement at home or the network of tunnels under Blackbird? So this little gem faded to the back of my mind. How careless of me. Noticing that I've been silent all thi

  • The Mafia Don's Revenge   A Promise Made.

    Daisy: After leaving the garden, I wander around the house for a bit. Trying to twist open doors and memorising the dips and turns. "Locked," I murmur, letting my fingers slip from the door to the room I was unsuccessfully attempting to gain entrance into. I forge ahead, my fingers trailing along the wall. I notice some of Kaiden's men at the end of the hallway engaging in a hushed conversation. It ends abruptly as I walk closer. Feeling awkward at their stares, I offer them a strained smile. Their faces remain stoic so I scramble passed them. I roll my eyes in response. Gaining the freedom to roam the house hasn't proven to be as exciting as I thought. Not when most doors are locked. How are we supposed to work together when I can't find anything useful? My eavesdropping skills could use some work too. I grimace at the thought. My feet come to a stop when I hear a voice. The person seems tense as he carries on the conversation. Not wanting to be discovered, I thread close

  • The Mafia Don's Revenge   The Space Between Us.

    Daisy: I watch Ivan walk away and lift a confused brow at Kaiden. "Erebus blew up one of his warehouses," Kaiden answers my unspoken question. He blows out a long breath while running his fingers through his hair in frustration. "What are we going to do?" I ask, noting how his eyes widen in surprise when I say 'we'. "We made a deal, Ivan and I. Since his warehouse was attacked, he now has a personal grudge against Erebus. He is going to help me track him down in exchange for a favour," Kaiden replies reluctantly. "What kind of favour?" I probe, unwilling to back down. He is the one that suggested we work together and I am determined to get all the information I can pull out of him. Kaiden remains silent, drawing it out in a way that I know is deliberate. I fold my arms over my chest and pin him with a glare. He grabs my arm and tugs me to the couch, urging me to sit. I relent and he sits down beside me. "In exchange for full access to Kyklos whenever he needs it."

    Kaiden: Ivan's expression is unreadable as he steps into the room. His eyes scanning the space before they land on me. "Kaiden, good to see you," his voice is neutral as he saunters to the couch and takes a seat. I give him a nod in greeting. "What brings you here, Ivan?" Ivan's gaze flits to Alex, who's standing off to the side. "I'd prefer if we discuss in private." Alex acknowledges the unspoken cue and makes his way to the door. " I'll be outside if you need me." He pats me on the back as he passes by before he exits. Ivan watches him walk off then looks at me, his eyes narrowing slightly. "One of my warehouses was blown up. Dozens of kilos of product went up in flames." he says, his voice tight with anger. "It seems like someone has been tampering with my business, causing significant losses." I keep my expression blank even as I can feel the weight of Ivan's anger. "I am sorry to hear that, Ivan," I tell him, keeping my voice measured. "But I am confused as to what tha

    Kaiden:Daisy nods, and a small sense of satisfaction settles in my chest. Getting up, I reach for the tray filled with empty wraps of biscuits and cookies, but I am intercepted by Daisy. Her slender fingers pluck it out of my reach, she throws a smile at me from over her shoulder and heads out the door. "Might as well start learning the layout of your house," she says, her voice light and playful.I watch in amusement as she sashays away till she turns a corner and disappears from my view. I move in the opposite direction, meeting the shocked gaze of one of my men who stands guard outside the room. My expression snaps back into place, and I clear my throat, gaining my composure. "Carry on," I order brusquely. The man nods quickly and averts his eyes. I turn my attention back to the task at hand, pushing away the little moment of calm.I make my way to the security room where Alex and Andreas are waiting. Entering, I scan the room and make a beeline for the vase in the midd

  • The Mafia Don's Revenge   A Glimpse Of Truth

    Daisy: I remain silent, waiting for Kaiden to continue. To say that I am surprised that he is choosing to tell me this is an understatement, but seeing as someone was following us this afternoon, I guess Kaiden has had a change of heart. He clears his throat before continuing. "As you know, Kyklos is a crime syndicate. It was created by my grandfather, Yorgus Nikolaou. Originally, Kyklos was an accounting company, but it has... evolved to what it is today. I took over from my father two years ago, due to less than ideal circumstances." Kaiden's eyes cloud over, his gaze drifting away as if he is lost in a memory. He refocuses, shaking his head before he continues. "He was killed in a coup. I was meant to die too, but Alexandros was able to get me out in time before the place was blown up." "I still haven't figured out who staged it," Kaiden says, his voice laced with frustration. "After the coup, everything went to shit. Kyklos almost disrupted under my feet. I was suddenly head
