Lorenzo's P.O.V

“Enzo, we got him”. Daniel, my right hand man, stated as he walked into my underground office.

This office was one that is never to be discovered by outsiders and is only known by Janet and Daniel, my closest Aides.

“Where is he?”. I ask, folding my sleeves as I walk out of the office, heading towards the usual place we keep criminals, the dungeon.

I actually felt some sort of happiness at being able to take out my frustration on someone, it had been weeks since I tortured a person and I itched to do it.

“The dungeon” Came his curt reply. He was never one to talk much but was very intelligent and got the work done.

“Master, we already beat him up severely, I don't think he can take anymore”. One of my personal guards says as we approach the dungeon.

Furious at his attempt to make me go easy on him, I stopped and turned to him but could not help but smirk for a second, seeing him visibly shake from fear.

He knows exactly what I'm capable of and what to s

  • The Traitor's Daughter    Chapter 98: A Gift

    Lorenzo’s P.O.VI was in the garden, when I saw the black SUV crawl up the dirt road. Even before I caught the glint of sunlight off the side mirror, I knew it was Grayson, and his car that makes his baby die to how much he cherished it.Why he came through the back today was a surprise. As if he knew I was here.I stood, brushing soil off my hands. I’d been tending the hydrangeas Sarah planted just last week. She said watching something grow made her feel alive again. I understood. That’s why I’d let my hands get dirty for the first time in a long time.The door of the SUV opened, and Grayson stepped out, his shoulders tense and his jaw locked. He didn’t move with his usual ease. There was a weight to him, something dragging behind his eyes like smoke that refused to clear.“It’s gone,” he said before I even asked.I didn’t flinch. I didn’t need to.“The cabin?” I asked, already knowing the answer.He nodded. “Burned to ash. Nothing left but stone and cinders. Happened yesterday whi

    The rain hadn’t let up all day. It battered the roof of the house like a million tiny fists pounding out an impatient warning. The storm was loud, but not louder than the silence inside me, the kind that takes root when you’ve already made a decision and now all that’s left is the execution.I stood by the window, watching the sheets of water slice through the night. The glass was cold beneath my fingers. So cold that I could imagined the fire that would soon replace this cold. It would come in bursts, in flames that devoured steel and concrete. Donga’s last refuge would become his tomb. Every time I mentioned that it would his tomb, Sarah would always remind me that he always had an escape plan and route.He had built himself a new base. Bigger. More fortified. Hidden deep in the southern hills, surrounded by forests, mines, and paranoia. A place he thought no one would ever find.But I found it.Not by brute force or by satellites or drones. I found it by trusting the men I’d pla

    “Got it boss.” I hear Daniel respond from the other side of the phone as Lorenzo put it on loud speaker.My whole body immediately tensed, not because I was afraid or reluctant to harm Dinga but because I was anxious.It was basically starting a war with a man that had prepared for one all his life.He was a snitch and a person with so much enemies, even though he had some backing from the government, he only had that because he snitches and exposes gangs for a living and that made him hated.Amongst the men that were sent, were Dario and even some of his own men had been bought off the same way he bought them.I sniffed in sharply as my heart began to beat fast.I wouldn't say that I was one that had anxiety but right now, I had it but I was also prepared.“I know that man is still your father and that is why I would like to ask you lastly and seriously. Are you okay with him dead or do you want me to spare his life. Soaring his life dies nit mean that he will live well, it means tha

    Lorenzo’s P.O.VThe arrow quivered in my hand, still humming with the force it had landed with. I stared at it for a long moment, my senses straining against the quiet. Everything around the house was still, eerily so. The sort of stillness that only came before something terrible.I turned the shaft over, fingers moving instinctively, and found the thin parchment wound tightly near the head. The handwriting on the note was sharp, deliberate. I unfolded it slowly, as if each inch might trigger something, and read the words.“SARAH, COME TO THE BACK OF THE HOUSE ALONE.DO NOT SPEAK. DO NOT ALERT ANYONE.IF YOU REFUSE, I BLOW IT ALL TO HELL.Daddy Dearest.”My chest tightened.Donga.I gritted my teeth so hard it hurt. His name was like acid in my mouth, burning, bitter, impossible to ignore.He couldn’t be here. He shouldn’t be here. Not after everything. I had reinforced the perimeter, set traps, watched the woods like a hawk. I hadn’t let my guard drop for a second. And yet, this n

    “How could he do that and has hated and treated me like garbage due to that.” I ask as I throw my hands up in disbelief, and anger.All I got from Lorenzo was a sigh and I turned to look at him because why exactly was it only my mind being blown by all the things that were happening.“You do realise that your Donga is the worst father on this earth right?. The realisation and discovery of what you went through was the first thing that melted my heart that had long been rumoured to be a stone.” He said as walked up to m, kissing me in the forehead and continued.“The fact that you still think he shouldn't have done that means that you still somehow believe what he has even a shred of humanity. You're far too kind.” He said again and this time, kissed me on the lips.I raised my teary eyes to look at him because as much as I would love to deny what he said, he was right.I was still a little bit of a fool.“I'm still a fool.” I said out loud and ducked my head in shame.Every single par

    As soon as I stepped out of the room, I could not even find his shadow and he literally just left less than a minute. I literally went all round the house but could not find him, and immediately knew that he really didn’t want to be found which meant that he was probably trying to protect me from something. Going back to the staircase where he had to take once he left our room. Turning to face the guard that was stationed there, I decided to ask“Where’s Lorenzo?” I asked, but he turned away from me, trying to avoid my gaze as if that would stop one. He hesitated for a little bit. “He said not to tell anyone.” He saud with his voice shaking as if he knew that he could not escape this. I stepped forward. “Cam. Where?”He looked around, then leaned in. “The generator room. With Logan.” My stomach dropped.I didn’t wait. I moved fast, boots pounding against the cold concrete, heart thudding in my chest.Why in the world was he in a place that was actually hidden? And now he was a
