Third-Person POV

Vittorio was trembling as he called his Underboss, Giovanni Spada. "Help me look into where Anna went this afternoon and whether she booked any flight or train tickets."

There was a thud as Carlos stumbled into the door, his expression somewhat dazed.

"Vittorio, who were you talking to earlier? Did you say that Anna is terminally ill? Wasn't she just fine yesterday? She was even able to run and yell as she confronted Liliana—"

However, he abruptly stopped talking when he rec

  • Their Oaths Die before I Do   Chapter 10

    Anna's POVSeven days later, Carlos returned from his hunt and immediately visited me at the hospital. Dried blood and mud still caked his black coat as he pulled a chair over to my bed and sat in it. After staring at me for a long while, he finally spoke."I had my men tie her up in the basement before I told her the truth of what happened all those years ago. She kept apologizing to you while on her knees. After that, I had my men return the favor for what she did to you a thousand times over. By the end, she was begging me to kill her. This is a video of the entire thing."He offered me a USB stick, and I noticed that he hadn't managed to fully clean out the blood under his nails."Anna, she won't ever hurt you again. I've taken revenge for you."I merely made a sound of acknowledgment and said nothing more.Carlos watched me, but after waiting a long time and still not getting any other response, his eyes slowly reddened."You hate me, don't you?" he asked, his voice shaki

  • Their Oaths Die before I Do   Chapter 9

    Anna's POVVittorio pressed his forehead against the side of my bed, muttering his apologies over and over again."If I hadn't ignored your calls that night, you wouldn't have been assaulted. How could I have not believed you? I truly deserve to die. I'm so sorry…"I even handed your arms trafficking network over to Liliana despite knowing what it meant to you. I vowed to protect you, yet all I did was hurt you time and again."Grabbing my hand, he began slapping himself with it, not stopping even when his mouth began to bleed.I simply stared at him as I slowly pulled my hand free of his grip and tucked it back under the blanket."Aren't you done yet?"His head snapped up at my words. Assuming that I had relented, he shuffled closer and took my hand."Anna, have you forgiven me? You can do anything you want to me, scold or hit me, just as long as you don't give up on me."I pulled my hand back. "This isn't about forgiveness. I just don't care anymore."Vittorio froze in surp

    Anna's POVAt that moment, the sound of a hushed argument came from outside the door.Carlos stepped outside, but since he hadn't closed the door fully, his lowered voice still drifted in from the crack."Aren't you the best medical team in this entire continent? If you fail to cure her, you won't be able to bear the consequences!"The doctor stammered in reply, "S-sir, with the state Ms. Siciliano's body is currently in, only god can help her now. We'll do our very best, but we can only give her three weeks at most."An explosive curse burst from Carlos' lips before I heard the dull thud of his fist punching the wall.To me, it didn't make a difference whether I had three weeks or two. The only difference would be whether I spent that time lying in a hospital bed or in the snow.…For the next two days, Carlos and Vittorio never left my side. Every time I woke up, they would repeatedly talk about our past memories, even showing me photos.Nevertheless, I had no interest in li

  • Their Oaths Die before I Do   Chapter 7

    Anna's POVBy the time the plane landed in Reytoria, it was already the next afternoon.After leaving the airport, I hailed a cab and told the driver to take the coastal road and drive slowly.Leaning back against the seat, I gazed out the window at the scenery while losing myself in memories of my childhood.Back then, Carlos and Vittorio hadn't had the power and authority they had now, yet they had been fiercely protective of me.Once, I came down with a fever, and Vittorio carried me on his back to seek treatment. They then promised me that once we all grew up, they would spoil me and make me the luckiest Principessa in the whole world.Later on, they indeed made good on their promise. If there was anything I liked, it would always be presented to me the next day. Even when they were at their lowest because of the power struggle within their families, they never neglected me.Carlos was quite the talkative person, and in the past, he would always think of ways to cheer me up.

Did you say that Anna is terminally ill? Wasn't she just fine yesterday? She was even able to run and yell as she confronted Liliana—"However, he abruptly stopped talking when he recalled the look of despair on Anna's face and her recent odd behavior.They said that when the pain became too overwhelming, you couldn't even cry.Carlos' mind went blank as he muttered, "No, that's impossible…"Giovanni was incredibly efficient, taking only three minutes to complete his investigation.Yet, to Vittorio, those three minutes were the longest minutes of his life. Just how many moments like this had Anna endured as she waited every time he and Carlos abandoned her for Liliana?

  • Their Oaths Die before I Do   Chapter 5

    Third-Person POVMeanwhile, back at the manor, Vittorio was sitting on the couch, musing over Anna's words from earlier that day while staring at the very first watch she had given him years ago.For some reason, the watch strap felt particularly tight today, so much so that his wrist was aching."Vittorio, what's up with you today?" Liliana came over with several cups of coffee. "I've been trying to get your attention for a while now."Vittorio abruptly snapped back to his senses and shook his head. "I'm fine."It occurred to him then that he had been growing closer to Liliana and acting more intimately with her recently in a deliberate move to neglect Anna and make her jealous.However, not only had she not kicked up a fuss, but she had even gone out of her way to avoid any situation that would put them all in the same place. Before leaving earlier today, her complexion had also been quite pale—too pale. Everything just seemed so very off.No, he couldn't continue doing this
