The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 88: Evidence
Sarah’s P.O.VThe next morning, I woke up already planning.I hadn’t slept more than a few broken hours, but exhaustion was a dull ache in the background. Fear kept me focused. Fear and determination say at the forefront of my i made the decision to make a move and nig just wait for him to slip up again. He may never do so.Slowly and carefully, I stood up, careful not to alert Lorenzo who was laying beside me. The thought of doing this behind his back made my heart beat with intense nervousness, because I knew that he would get mad that I put myself in danger but I have to. I dressed in silence, choosing soft-soled shoes that wouldn’t echo on the stone floors, and made sure I had no scent on me. Walking to the mirror, I quickly braided my hair back tightly, the way I used to when I needed to be efficient. Quick. Invisible.The first thing I needed was access.Logan was no fool and definitely wouldn’t leave sensitive information just lying around, but he was a creature of habit.
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 87: Logan
Sarah’s P.O.VComing back here just felt weird but good. Who would’ve thought that I would consider a place like this my home. It felt nostalgic considering all the things that happened here in this mansion till now. It brought a smile to my face.The air in Lorenzo’s compound always smelled of old stone and secrets.I didn’t mind the stone because it reminded me of childhood forts and hideaways, places I used to imagine myself safe before the reality of my father’s rage would tear through fantasy like a blade through silk. But the secrets, they always made my skin crawl.The hallways here were tight as tight as I remember, built like a maze to confuse anyone who didn’t belong. I was supposed to be in the library that afternoon, sorting through some of the historical files Lorenzo’s team had recovered from a former government safehouse, that was another hint to the bad things my father had been doing, but a migraine suddenly crept up on me, so I headed downstairs to look for aspiri
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 86: Shadows and Suspicion
Lorenzo’s P.O.VThe morning sun filtered through the slats of the blinds, drawing narrow golden lines across the wooden floor. The cabin was quiet, too quiet maybe, but I’d come to appreciate silence. It meant no gunfire, no shouting, no struggle. Just the soft, even breaths of Sarah in the next room and the occasional chirp of birds that didn’t know about evil.I stood by the window, coffee in hand, scanning the tree line like I had every morning since we arrived. It wasn’t just a habit. It was survival. Ever since Donga had ripped Sarah from our lives and left Daniel bleeding on the concrete, I hadn’t trusted peace. Peace was the eye of the storm.Behind me, the creak of the floorboards told me Sarah was up.“Morning,” I said without turning.She came up beside me, wrapped in the oversized sweater I’d given her, her hair still tousled from sleep. “You didn’t sleep again.”I smiled at her, or tried to. “I slept. A little.” I said as I placed a kiss on her cheeks.She didn’t buy it,
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 85: Victor
Daniel had left before dawn, slipping through the trees with the cold confidence he always wore when he was on a mission. He said he’d be back by nightfall, with or without our guestEven though I warned him not to take his life under any circumstance, I knew that the second he posed an actual threat, Daniel would make sure he stopped there. That was six hours ago. Now the sun had sunk behind the pines, and the sky outside had turned that dark blue that only ever shows up just before full night.I stood and moved to the window, peering out into the blackened stretch of forest. Nothing. Still nothing.The plan was simple: bring Victor to us, observe, listen, and push when needed. If he was Donga’s spy, he’d trip. Sooner or later. I would make sure of it.A creak from the porch snapped my head around.The door opened.Daniel stepped in, brushing snow from his shoulders, his eyes sharp and tired. Behind him came Victor, taller than I remembered, leaner, with that same unreadable expres
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 84
I woke up to the smell of black coffee and the sound of Lorenzo sharpening his knife. The rhythmic scrape of steel on stone echoed from the kitchen, sharp and deliberate, a sound I’d grown used to over the past few weeks. Our hideout was quiet otherwise, tucked away in the wooded hills, safe, at least for now.But there was no such thing as rest anymore. Lorenzo had made that clear from day one. Safety was earned, and strength was necessary. And though my body still ached from the last session, I pulled myself out of bed and into a pair of leggings and a fitted hoodie. The morning chill bit at my skin. It was going to be another long day.He turned when I stepped into the kitchen. His dark hair was messy, his jaw shadowed with stubble, eyes scanning me like a general assessing a soldier. And then, just briefly, his gaze softened.“You slept?” He asked walking up to me.“A bit.” I lied.He didn’t call me out on it, just handed me a protein bar and my coffee. I took it silently and s
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 83: A Spy?
The early morning air was cool against my skin, as it reminded me that I was indeed not the city, it was too crisp. I stood on the gravel driveway behind the safehouse, watching the mist cling to the tops of the distant trees. The sun hadn’t yet risen fully, and everything was cloaked in a hazy twilight that blurred edges and made every shadow feel like a threat. With a few minutes, Daniel’s truck rolled up the narrow path moments later, tires crunching over loose stone. I turned as he stepped out. “Hi Enzo”. She started as he stepped out of his car, nodding his head once in greeting.“Didn’t expect to see you up this early,” Daniel said, closing the door behind him.“I couldn’t sleep,” I replied simply, motioning for him to follow me around to the back porch. “We need to talk.” I said to him as I heaved a little sigh that was as a result of the scars that were still visible on him. He followed without hesitation, falling into step beside me. His limp was more pronounced today,
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 82
Sarah’s P.O.VWaking up to an empty bed when I went to sleep beside Lorenzo was a nerve wracking experience, even though I knew deep down that he was safe.The fact that the man that gave us sleepless nights and so much agony was my father was insane.I headed downstairs, covering myself even further with the cover cloth dragged with me as I stood up from the bed.On getting downstairs, there he was standing by the window that faced the living room. The place looked mystical and if not for the circumstances that led us here, it is a great vacation spot.Walking up to him, I talked on his shoulder lightly and he turned to me with a smile, opening his mouth to say good morning but this voice cracked heavily, showing that he hadn't spoken in hours.He didn't bother anymore and held my hands, leading me over the coffee table.For a second, he looked like he was hesitating to say something but I let him decide himself whether to tell me what was on his mind or not.His arms were braced, ey
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 81: Strike First
Lorenzo's P.O.VDaniel had come with Victor and although he said nothing, his whole demeanor good me everything that he didn't say.From the way he didn't ask to see Sarah, to see exactly where we were, knowing that he was such a nosy person when it came to me.I could tell that he suspected the short dark haired man and so I did too.Our conversations involved none other than Donga and whenever the man's name was mentioned, he seemed to interested, too eager.So much that it would take a fool not to notice.I also knew that Daniel brought him here intentionally so that I could get him as everyone had the funny thought that I was psychic when it came to traitors, but I was just extremely observant, and for now, I knew that he was fishy but couldn't conclude by just one meeting.“The team just sent another footage of Donga walking round our house, disguised.” Sarah says out loud as she walks ti me with a laptop in her hand.Even when she was serious and being so helpful, I could not he
The Traitor's Daughter Chapter 80: Donga’s Scheme
It was morning, and once again sleep had eluded me for the most of the night as I had not heard any tangible news from my men. All I had been hearing were unimportant information about my businesses and how the investments in Daniel’s care were. It was all to plain that I suspected that there actually was very viral information that he was coming to give to me by himself. It was a method we both had been using since we started working together. We could never risk leaking vital information as it could cost us more than our lives. One could not be too careful. I stood at the edge of the mountain and waited. It had been about 4 days since I got the last message and if I had calculated right, Daniel should be reaching here within the hour. He was the only one besides Grayson that knew where we were. After some hours, at exactly 8:00 p.m. Daniel with a gray hoodie, scuffed boots, eyes that scanned everything before stepping through a doorway. Paranoid. Good. I’d tra
