When Leonardo arrived at his lakeside mansion, he brought Scarlet with him. She was blindfolded. Cassius had insisted on the blindfold to prevent her from recognizing the route to the clubhouse, he had to protect the reputation of his business. However, Leonardo had a different plan. He wanted to keep Scarlet safe and away from the city until he was certain it was safe for her to return.From Cassius, Leonardo had learned that ever since Scarlet inherited her family’s fortune after her parents' passing, her relatives had cut ties with her in a bid to seize control of the Blackwood Finance Empire. Scarlet barely remembered her background anymore her memory of her real identity was vague, except for one thing: she knew her name.The only truth she was familiar with was the one she had been told—that her mother had sold her into Cassius’s hands.But Leonardo had uncovered the lies. He was determined to erase the falsehoods surrounding Scarlet’s identity. He would take care of her, protec

She halted outside of Leonardo's study, leaning her back against the cold wall, careful to remain hidden.A muffled response from the call followed, one of his men was trying to explain. "We moved too much, too fast. The Feds caught wind of the pattern. If we don’t shift the funds soon, they’ll freeze everything."Leonardo exhaled sharply, his frustration evident. "Damn it. If those funds get locked, we lose millions. The entire operation takes a hit."Scarlet’s mind raced. A flagged account? What kind of trouble had Leonardo gotten himself into? She knew he was involved in the mafia drug trade, but she had never seen him this agitated.Silence filled the room. Leonardo was likely contemplating his next move.To Scarlet, this was an opportunity. A chance to step in and, at the very least, offer a solution. She knew nothing about the mafia underworld, but maybe Leonardo could teach her instead of keeping her isolated in his mansion.

Scarlet, on the other hand, was impressed to see a woman in the team. She wondered what had taken Leonardo so long to introduce her. Now, at least, she had someone like her in the cartel. "No need for much introduction, I suppose," Leonardo started. "This is Scarlet Blackwood. She will now be a contributing factor to this organization." A murmur rippled across the room. Leonardo exhaled, watching them closely. The murmurs ceased immediately. He moved toward the window, gazing out at the cityscape. "You see, this organization is structured like a pyramid," he continued, indirectly referring to Scarlet but making it seem as if he was addressing everyone. "There is the Don; which is me. The Consigliere; her name is Valeria Thompson," he said, acknowledging her. "She is my advisor. She can be very calculating and brilliant, persistent and sinister with her decisions." Scarlet nodded, taking proper note of Valeria. From her poised and alluring appearance to her intense countenance,

Leonardo maintened a calm demeanor, he refused to let his anger consume him. But hearing Valeria call Scarlet a concubine, that was the last straw. Scarlet sensed the tension, an unusual undercurrent of jealousy and hatred emanating from Valeria. Something was off. What did she need to know? And what was so private that Valeria couldn't say it in front of her? Seeing that Leonardo made no move to intervene, Scarlet turned and exited the office, slamming the door behind her. She wouldn’t let herself get caught up in their shenanigans. Leonardo dragged out some papers from his drawer, flipping through the files. "So, what do you want to talk about?" he asked, his tone void of emotion. "I want to talk about her," Valeria howled. "Who?" "Oh, please don’t act clueless. How could you do this to me? I thought we had something!" Leonardo looked up from the papers, his gaze dark with restrained ang

As weeks passed by Scarlet still bore some sense of anger toward Leonardo because he hadn't defended her when Valeria called her a concubine but it didn't still stop her from interrogating Damien and giving solutions for the almost flagged account. Yet she knew at some point she had to let go and forgive Leonardo. She needed him as much as he needed her. Scarlet’s next target had been on Cassius; she wanted to take revenge on him for the terrible treatment he gave her when she was at the clubhouse and as well find a way to save those girls who had suffered the same fate as her. She would need Leonardo’s men to assist her but she had to conduct this plan without Leonardo finding out that she needed her own men who were answerable to only her. The type of men that could keep secrets even if they were tortured into spilling it. Scarlet stepped out onto the balcony of the penthouse with these thoughts running through her mind. the warm desert air enveloping her as she gazed out at
