The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 54: Her Shock
My whole body tensed with the realization that there was no way that the mafia man would drag Warren like that and just have a talk with him.He always looked angry whenever we talked, and I still remember the day that he came to my room complaining that I should not let another man see me immediately I just woke up.Something was definitely going to happen and so, I run towards the direction he dragged him to, only to see through the glass doors that Warren was on the floor with a busted lip and the mafia man looking very murderous.“I'm so sorry.” I say to Warren once again as I lead him to the dining area and run off to get the first aid kit that I had in my room, not wanting to take him there to avoid anymore trouble.“This would definitely hurt but I'll be gentle.” I say softly, somehow hoping that I could ease whatever pain he was going through. As I started to disinfect his wound with some spirit and cotton buds, the mafia man walked in and stopped for a second to look at us.A

There's a hidden opening that leads to the underground passageway in my room and no one bothered to tell me!I knew it was not the time for questions but I could not help it.“Why is there a hole that leads to the underground tunnel in my room?” I ask as we run down the stairs that were attached to the wall. The sound of low grunts still reaching our ears but I was curious.That was dangerous.Wasn't that where those men came from the other time, what if they found out that they could get in through my room.“He wanted you to be safe and wanted you to have an escape route, should the worst happen and he cannot protect you.” He said as we ran. Out of breath and panting, I nod my head but the feeling in my heart was far from that simple nod.He wanted to protect me that much?I meant that much to him?But when he brought me to this room, he still hated me, didn't he?So many questions ran through my mind but I would never get answers to them should anything happen to him and quite hone

All i could see was blood. Blood that pooled from his side's, from his eyes, from his nose and honestly every single part of him that could bleed was bleeding.My heart constricted in fear and pain as I took a step close. I knew that I was told to run away if I saw someone else that wasn't them that I knew but the figure in the black cloak was the least if my worries as all I could see was Lorenzo who was so still, it looked like he was dead.No, he can't be.He's extremely strong, right?And we came here as fast as we could, didn't we?As I took some steps towards him without thinking, the figure in black immediately turned to attack me but was met with fierce resistance from Daniel and I took that chance to run to him.Tears had covered my whole face and blurred my vision already, and so I blinked aggressively because I needed to see him.As still as he was, I saw his eyes open up slowly and the tears poured out again. They looked so weak, he looked so weak, like he didn't have any

It's been two days now, and he's still unconscious. As scared as I am, I draw comfort from the fact that he's still breathing.As long as he's still breathing, he's alive.Daniel had even told me to calm down when I had an outburst at why everyone was so calm and going about their day like nothing happened when their leader was laying almost lifeless, and was made to understand that this was not even the fifth time he had been in a coma like this, and the thought just burdened my heart and made me feel sad for him.I knew he was a strong man, and knew that it was obviously not easy to run a gang and had your father killed at a young age, but being in coma looking normal because of his many times he's had gotten so close to death was crazy. I could not help but wonder and be curious as to what exactly he had gone through. Walking into his room like I did everyday since he was transported back to his own room, I clean his face and hands, and use Chapstick on his dry lips.I could not

Lately, life has felt like a bed of roses, but unfortunately, I was waiting for the other shoe to drop because I knew that there was no way my life was this sweet so fast and would remain so. I hated to think in such a pessimistic way but I could not help it because it was the truth. There was never a time when I experienced the slightest joy that something did not happen to take it all away. “Hey love.” Lorenzo greeted as he entered my room like he had been doing since he started to recover and was able to leave his bed. Smiling, I lean into him as he kissed me on the cheek while turning to hug me. I felt so warm, so important, so cherished, and honestly amazed at how unrestrained he had been with his feelings for me. Not that I'm complaining. “Good morning.” I greeted in return as he broke the hug to look at me, while caressing my face softly in his hand. His gaze was one that always made me wonder just how he adored me so much. Was he even the same person whose expressions

Lorenzo's P.O.V“I found this.” Daniel came in with a sharp tool and dropped it on the table. As soon as it got dropped on my table, I realized that it was familiar. Not just familiar, knew who it belonged to because I was the one who gave it to her.“Janet.” I say out loud, and Daniel nodded in response knowing very well that it was the tool that I trained them with. It was used instead of a dart and was very effective in extreme cases.I trained her with it and she poisoned me with it. How ironic Flashback:That day, immediately after I left my wife, I perceived a smell that I knew was not natural, and traced it.It was similar to the smell of the latest poison I was poisoned with before I escaped that underground laboratory but still different as it did but carry the same amount of potency in its smell.I immediately knew that there was only one person that knew that particular poison, and would be able to find something so similar.Not wanting any casualties, I chased the smell

I stared out the window, admiring the stars in the night sky as I waited for Lorenzo, and a text back from Warren whom I had not seen recently, and wanted to know if he was okay and healthy.“Hey, I've just been a bit caught up with work. My father wants to handover soon” He responds with an emoji that looked like a sigh.“Okay, I was just worried and glad that you're okay.” I said to him and closed my phone.I had noticed how busy Lorenzo had been these days and although I had not asked, I could see very well that he was troubled by something.These days, life has been worth living. His home was slowly becoming my safe haven, especially because he was in it, and knowing that he had my back and loved me, was an addition to the peace that bummed deep in my soul.“Hi Love.” Lorenzo greeted as soon as he opened the door and saw me, which took me by surprise because I definitely did not hear his car come in.“Hi.” I respond with a smile while leaning in to take his kiss on my cheek as he

Lorenzo's kiss had left me breathless, a whirlwind of emotions swirling through my mind. It was as if time had stopped the moment our lips met, and now, as I stood there, my heart racing, I could barely process what had just happened. The warmth of his body was still lingering on my skin, and the taste of him was intoxicating. I felt a mix of exhilaration and comfort, but the fear of the unknown still plagued meAs I looked into his eyes, I could see the questions reflected back at me. Lorenzo had always been intense, his gaze piercing through any facade I tried to maintain. I could tell he was waiting for me to say something, anything, but the words felt stuck in my throat. What did he mean to me? The answer seemed so simple yet so complicated at the same time.In that moment, I thought back to all the times we had spent together. The way he cared for me whether subtly or not, the ones k knew of and the ones I didn’t. We had shared laughter, secrets, and even pain. Our connection th

The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 75: Shut Up!
Lorenzo's P.O.V Leaving this city was a bittersweet feeling.A city that broke me but made me who I was today.The company had gang that I built, was one that I had no choice but to build, because I learnt the hard way that only with power can one protect themselves and the ones around them.I was leaving everything behind but not fully as I had my eyes and ears still here. My houses, investments, and even my company still running.My gang was not one that went out to search for trouble but was always low-key. Even being so calm, we made somany enemies who were just oppressed by our silence and might.All these could function without me, as I had programmed it that way from the start.All I needed now, was Donga in my hands.It was funny but I was somewhat glad that he was so hard to catch because that meant that my father was not careless in letting that man close, the man was just too capable.He got my father but would never get me or my wife.My days of underestimating him were g
The Traitor's Daughter chapter 74: Love and Assurance
The way life could change so fast was one thing that would always shock me. I can't believe that my life has actually come to this in such a short time. Just about seven months ago, I was in deep hell. In a place that I never thought I would escape. A hellish torment that made me make several attempts on my life because I was all alone with no help, and now, I had help. I had love and people in my corner. I had a person who would do anything he possibly could to protect me and keep me from my demons, even if it means risking what he had worked all his life for. Suddenly, life doesn't feel so bad anymore. I know that I still had that little fear in me of the unknown. That fear that this man may not be with me for very long because I knew just how disgustingly capable the monster that is supposed to be my father is, and also knew that he would never stop until he sees that I stopped breathing. In this fight, there was no in between. It's either he dies or I do. That I knew
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 73: Her Safety
Lorenzo’s POVI didn’t sleep that night.Not because I couldn’t. Because I wouldn’t.Sarah lay curled against me, finally still after hours of trembling. Her face was peaceful now, but I knew that peace was borrowed. Fragile. Her breathing was even, but I felt the storm she was holding back. It pulsed under her skin, and in the small sounds she made whenever the wind knocked against the windows. Every time, I reached for her. Every time, she clung a little tighter.I kept my eyes on the ceiling, memorizing every creak in the cabin’s frame. Every groan in the wood. I tracked the trees outside by the way their shadows shifted across the floor. I listened for anything. Everything.Because I knew he was still out there.Donga.That bastard had come back, not just as a threat, but as a ghost Sarah was finally starting to lay to rest. And now, she was bleeding again.Not on the outside.But in all the places I couldn’t reach with my hands.By dawn, I had a plan. It wasn’t perfect. Plans rar
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 72: Sarah’s Bravery
Sarah’s POVIt happened on a Tuesday.The kind of day that felt ordinary in all the right ways, socks warm from the dryer, fresh coffee in my favorite mug, and Lorenzo’s jacket draped over the kitchen chair because he never remembered to hang it up. The wind carried the smell of pine, and I had just sent my first message to a support group I found online. I was building something again. Piece by piece.I thought I was safe.I thought peace had roots now, buried deep enough that nothing could dig them up.I was wrong.I’d gone out to the clearing again, the same one I had walked to days before when I finally felt free in my body again. I’d brought my journal and a blanket, planning to spend an hour under the clouds scribbling thoughts and hopes and maybe even a letter to my younger self.The wind was softer today. The sky open and merciful.I didn’t hear him at first.Didn’t sense it.Didn’t feel the old, heavy darkness until it was already too close.The snap of a branch.I turned.An
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 71: Peace
Sarah’s POVIt started with a single step.One step off the porch, then two. Three steps into the wind, jacket zipped, boots laced, and heart thumping like it hadn’t done something this brave in a while. I told Lorenzo I needed to walk alone today. He didn’t argue. He just gave me a thermos of tea, kissed my forehead, and said he’d be here when I got back.It’s funny, idea of freedom used to terrify me as much as I craved it. Not the philosophical kind, the kind people post quotes about. I mean real freedom. The kind that requires choice. Movement. The kind that means you step beyond your safe place and trust the world not to hurt you again.But this morning, the sunlight through the trees was too beautiful to ignore. The wind too inviting. The quiet too rich to fill with fear.I had to go.Even if it was just a mile into the woods.Even if it was just for me.The trail behind our cabin was one I hadn’t walked alone since the kidnapping. Daniel had cleared it once, back when he was
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 70: Pain and Freedom
Sarah’s POVFor the first time in a long while, I felt like I could breathe.Not the shallow, anxious breaths I’d taken after the kidnapping. Not the trembling ones I’d hidden from Lorenzo at night. This breath was full, deep, real, grounding. The kind of breath that didn’t come with dread tangled in the back of my throat.I stood on the ridge just behind the cabin, wrapped in a blanket, watching the sunrise bleed gold across the trees. The air was crisp and still. Somewhere in the distance, water trickled through thawing ground. It felt like a beginning. Not just of spring, but of something inside me, something that had been buried under fear and pain.Healing isn’t clean. It’s jagged. Uneven. Some mornings I still woke in a cold sweat, certain I could hear the rasp of rope against wood or the sound of boots on barn floors. But those memories didn’t control me the way they used to. They no longer felt like cages. Just echoes. Old ghosts that I had stopped running from.Now, I faced t
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 69: Monster Donga
Sarah’s POVI didn’t sleep much.Even though I was safe. Even though Lorenzo barely left my side, even to breathe. My body knew I was free, but my mind hadn’t caught up. The dark didn’t feel like peace anymore, it felt like the barn, like rope on my wrists, like metal against my skull.I’d wake in cold sweats, breathing hard, fingers curled into fists that refused to unclench.Sometimes I screamed.Sometimes I was silent.I hated that I had spiraled again. The last time this happened, I was still back home with nanny. Why was I being so weak again?However, Lorenzo was always there. Holding me. Steady as stone. He didn’t flinch when I sobbed against his chest or when I punched the mattress in frustration because I couldn’t stop shaking at the sound of a creaking floorboard. He didn’t speak unless I asked him to. He just stayed.And somehow, that helped.Still, there were moments I hated myself for what I felt.I hated how small I was now. How fragile. Like I was made of broken glass
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 68: A Promise to Himself
Lorenzo’s POVShe was in my arms, but it still didn’t feel real.Ny wife, barely able to stand, but alive.I held her like the world would tear her away again if I let go. Her breath hitched against my chest, every inhale a sob, her fists gripping my jacket like she didn’t believe I was real.Truth be told, I wasn’t sure either.The barn reeked of rot and rust. One of the men was still groaning in the corner, gut-shot, barely breathing. I didn’t care. Not yet. My whole body was coiled tight, every muscle ready to snap. But I forced myself to focus on her first.“You’re safe,” I whispered, one hand cupping the back of her head, fingers brushing over a swollen welt behind her ear. Rage flared again. “I’ve got you.”I lifted her gently, cradling her against my chest. She was lighter than she should’ve been. Hadn’t eaten. They’d kept her tied up like an animal. I could feel it in the way she flinched, not from me, but from the memory of what they did.I carried her outside into the pal
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 67: Rescue
I should have known something was wrong the moment the wind changed.It came suddenly, sharp and acrid, like sweat and smoke and blood. It wasn’t the cool, clean breeze I’d grown used to on the ridge behind the safehouse. I paused halfway through my usual walk, turning to glance back at the small cabin nestled between the trees. Everything looked the same. Quiet. Still.But my skin prickled.“Daniel!” I screamed, stumbling backward, as I saw him fall like a pack of card on the floor, already looking lifelessThree of them. Maybe four. Faces wrapped in cloth, eyes cold and distant, like they weren’t even human anymore. Just shadows with weapons.I could see from a distance that there were other men in total black, like the guards of the mansion but they seemed to actually attack the maids. It was definitely not our guards. Daniel tried to stand. He made it to one knee before the second man kicked him full in the ribs, a crack echoing through the clearing. I couldn’t move. My feet we
