The light footsteps filled the dim and empty hallway of the basement of mansion. Everything was eerily silent, but suddenly a scream echoed through the air cutting off the silence. The footsteps stopped for a second but then again they resumed on their way. Daniel opened the metal door of the basement and saw in front of him was dead body of Lucas, the man who had stolen from Adriano almost one month before. Adriano, true to his words didn’t killed him until he paid him back every penny he stole from him, and when he was done Adriano finally took mercy on him and freed his soul from his torture. Ignoring the dead body which was stabbed right in his neck Daniel proceeded to stand next to Adriano who was cleaning his knife with his handkerchief. “Adriano, we need to talk.” Daniel told him clearing his throat. Adriano stopped his work and give him a side glance in the past month he had become more deadly than,before he had sto

It has been three days, three days of same routine Edna has adopted. She was trying her best to known what was the password of Adriano’s laptop but not had succeeded yet. She follows him whenever he was at home, she was getting tired of that. But she had to try, but if showed more interest than she was already showing there would be chance of Adriano doubting the situation as if he was not already disturbed by her behavior.“Damn!” she muttered under her breath, closing the book she was reading. Tugging her cardigan to herself as she folded her legs beneath her proving them her warmth. The weather today was quite stormy and the black clouds that was shadowing the sunlight thundered from time to time. She sipped the coffee feeling the bitter taste of it fill her parched throat.She was startled from her thoughts by the sudden movement of opening of doors, the doors of Adriano’s library was huge. Edna briefly looked towards the entrance wondering who had come si

Adriano narrowed gaze was stuck on the screen of his laptop as he worked on his new assignment. He was busy making the presentation for the next Hotel he was planning to open in California. It was an important deal for him as it will decide the partnership between his and German company who had a name for being in top. Rolling his shoulders back, his fingers went up behind his neck soothing the stiffness of it by massaging it gently. He was tried and on top of that still angry because he hasn’t caught the culprit who had invaded his warehouse. He lost a good fortune but anyway succeeded in fulfilling the shipment which was stolen from him. But the thought that someone was able to steal from Adriano Pietro didn’t let him sleep. Getting up from his chair before he saved the file and turned off the laptop his heavy boot clicked on the tiled floor.He sighed running a hand through his raven hair; he was need in the need of strong coffee. It was almost the time of dinn

Edna peeked behind the curtains of hair, her brows pinching together in confusion as she sat up on the coach, black jacket that was loosely wrapped around her shoulders met with the titled floor with a soft thud. It's cufflinks ring like a trinket in the comforting silence of the office grabbing Edna's attention. Her brown hues snapped towards the black material pooled just below her feet, her fingers hovered above it before finally taking the material in her hand standing up from the coach too. A familiar smell of cologne hit her nostrils and it didn't even took her two second to know that this piece of fabric belonged to Adriano without wasting a minute she threw it on the coach along a heavy sigh escaping her dry lips.  She raked a hand through her messy hair before they fall beside her, She was sure Martha did mixed something in her hot chocolate which she so persistently given her in the evening, because after her parents death she couldn't sleep until

Edna jerked awake in a sitting position when she heard a muffled cry. She rubbed the sleep out of her eyes looking in front of her to see Daniel holding a person whose hands were tied behind his back while Alberto was opening the cell jamming the keys in lock. She suppressed a gasp when Daniel landed a kick on that man's legs making him stmble inside. " Who the f*ck you work for?" Alberto glowered ripping of the duct tape from that man's mouth making him groan in pain.Alberto left hand was wrapped in a bandage that started from his palm upto his elbow while his other hands fingers was busy digging in that man's neck strangling it.Edna felt her heart going uneasy at the scene unfolding in front of her as the man's brown orbs rolled back in his head , his face turning bluish. " Alberto, we need him alive." Daniel reminded him calmly stuffing his hand in pocket and Alberto finally let go of the man who fall on the ground in a heap
