Lorenzo's P.O.V

“Enzo, these are the papers.” Daniel says, walking through the doors, dropping the newspapers and articles on my desk.

Recently, rumors spread that I had killed my wife and that I was involved in shady business, and I knew exactly who spread that.

It was Mr Gordon.

He hated the fact that he could not cheat me, and that I caught up with every single dirty plan of his, before it was executed, every single time.

I was not even mad at his attempt to ruin my business because I did fa

  • The Traitor's Daughter    Chapter 111: The Wedding

    There are moments in life that don’t feel real while they’re happening. You live inside them like a dream, drifting somewhere between disbelief and awe, and it’s only later when the music fades and your cheeks ache from smiling , that you realize: it was all real. This was one of those moments. My wedding day. Not the first one , the one that had been stolen from me, twisted into something cold and strategic. That one had been marked by survival. But today? Today was about love. The ceremony took place in the southern courtyard of the mansion, the largest one, where the white stone arches met flowering vines, and the rebuilt fountain sang with fresh water. Lorenzo had spent months restoring it with Logan, and I could see his touch in every detail. Everything from the pale gold lanterns to the silk-draped chairs was intentional. Thoughtful. Us. The guests filled the courtyard, murmuring in soft joy and anticipation. People I knew. People who had fought beside us, cried

  • The Traitor's Daughter    Chapter 110: Freedom

    There are mornings now where I wake up and don’t flinch. It always surprises me when it happens. Because for so long, I’d woken to panic. To the echo of chains in my mind. The feel of cold stone under my cheek. The whisper of footsteps that might’ve been his. Even after I was safe, those echoes lived inside me. But this morning… this morning was different. The sun touched my face through the window, my window. The one that looked out over the hills and the half-repaired west courtyard, where the roses had started blooming again. I turned toward the warmth instead of away from it. I breathed in and didn’t brace for pain. And beside me, still sleeping, was Lorenzo. His chest rose and fell, steady. One arm curled beneath the pillow. The other loose across the space between us, never gripping, never pulling just open. Not a claim. Not a demand. An invitation. I stared at his hand for a long time. Then slipped mine into it. And for the first time in years, the weight

  • The Traitor's Daughter    Chapter 109: A New Proposal

    Lorenzo’s Point of ViewShe wore the ring like a wound.A symbol of something sacred turned sacrificial. Something that should have belonged to joy, but was bound instead by fear. I saw it every time she looked at her hand, every time she hesitated to touch the band, like it might burn.Because it wasn’t real. Not yet.Yes, Sarah was already my wife. Legally. Officially. On paper.But that paper was stained with everything we had bled through. Her father’s threats. The forced vows. The hollow ceremony. The silence between us in those early days when she didn’t know if I was a captor or a shield.We survived it.But surviving isn’t the same as healing.And I wanted to give her back something I took.Choice.So I planned the proposal.The real one.Not with chandeliers and champagne. Not with photographers or formal wear or an audience of strangers.Just her. Just me. Just a question, stripped bare of expectation.Would you choose me again?It started with the garden.The west courtyard

  • The Traitor's Daughter    Chapter 108: The silent Servant

    Sarah’s P.O.VI always thought the house couldn’t get any quieter.But that was before she arrived.I don’t even know her name.Lorenzo never told me, and she never gave it. Maybe she didn’t know it anymore. Maybe it had been taken from her, along with the rest of her senses.She moved like a shadow, quiet, deliberate, her steps memorized by touch, not sight. Her hands would trail along the walls like reading a braille script that only she could see. A silent, blind ghost in a mansion of whispers.And yet, she was trusted with his food.With Donga’s food.It was Lorenzo’s idea. A layer of protection on top of the lockdown.“She can’t hear him,” he told me. “Can’t see him. Can’t be manipulated.”We were standing in the study when he said it, papers spread out between us, security logs, biometric reports, maps of the underground dungeon.“He’s sealed in a vault with one access point,” he continued. “The maid only uses the elevator system. It’s completely mechanical, no screens, no ele

  • The Traitor's Daughter    Chapter107: The Hidden Dungeon

    Lorenzo’s Point of View There are prisons. Then there are graves. What we built beneath the mansion was never meant to house the living. It was a tomb for monsters, designed not to rehabilitate, but to erase. No paper trail. No airflow from the outside. Concrete wrapped in steel, protected by algorithms so aggressive they could burn through decoys, fingerprints, even blood. This cell, required my eyes to open. Not scans. Not codes. Retinal tissue. Pulled in real time. Not even Logan knew the override sequence. I never thought I’d use it. Until tonight. Donga didn’t struggle when we came for him. That normally would have disturbed me but I knew and was so sure that he could not escape this. I also knew that his confidence came from the thought that he could escape anything. He had forgotten that he was just human like everyone else. He sat calmly in the temporary cell, legs crossed, as though he were meditating. When the doors opened and Daniel enter

  • The Traitor's Daughter    Chapter 106: Mason

    Lorenzo’s P.O.VThe first alert came as a flicker.A minor biometric mismatch at the southern perimeter, an anomaly small enough to be written off as a sensor glitch. But I didn’t write things off. Not anymore. Not since Donga escaped the first time.I had the system scan again.That’s when it pinged.A bootprint. Lightweight tactical. Not one of ours. The step was too shallow, too perfect. Not a mistake. A test. Someone was probing us, again.I leaned over the console and hit the override key.“All units,” I said into the comms. “This is Lorenzo. We have a breach. I want every sector on lockdown. Initiate protocol L” I ordered as soon as I smelt a breach. I didn’t care whether or not it was real or fake or could be a mistake. If it was, u could just raise the lockdown. A pause took over the whole building. Then chaos answered.Doors slammed shut across the mansion. Steel partitions dropped from the ceilings. Every hallway reconfigured to funnel intruders toward pre-selected c

    “Put me down!” I scream and kick and fight, knowing very well that it never had an effect.It didn't have an effect before, it won't have an effect today.I felt extremely embarrassed this time though because there were so many men in the living room for whatever reason, and we passed in the middle

    Yesterday felt like a wake up call for me, because for some insane reason, I actually thought he was nicer or at least, not as wicked as before but It was just reminded that he was aas brutal as ever.He killed that guard for just waking him up.I was definitely doomed to die.I was bored!How dar

    Anxiety gnawed at me with every rise of the sun. Everyday since the last day the mafia man was here, I had meals three times everyday, and they were never shabby meals.Extravagant even, in my opinion.Several thoughts had crossed my mind but he had already told me that only when I had the hope to

    Despite the pain in my head, I didn't want to give up.No, I couldn't give up.How could I?I know it was a far fetched dream but somewhere in my head, I wished that all the pain I've had to endure would be compensated by the best partner ever. Someone that would love and care for me deeply.This w
