Shadow Heiress Chapter 15 - Forging Bonds
After the last encounter I had with Frankie I had to come clean with Vito and tell him how my stay so far had been and it was time to come clean about my identity to the other guys. Which I assumed he had done.I couldn't keep on hiding, I needed to live my life as I pleased, and getting on this deal with Vito was the very first step I had to take.Walking down the halls was a bit different today, I didn't get as many disgusted looks and someone even waved to me. I thought I was in the twilight zone for a moment, that's how weird it was.I was actually more used to the nasty looks I got.It's not as if it bothered me, I was typically always with Vito and these people wouldn't act that way in front of him.Honestly, I was hardly ever alone around here, it was an upgrade compared to where I was coming from. Vegas and Tony were being friendly or trying to be on Vitos’ orders and the man himself constantly wouldn’t let me be always asking me to do things for him or with him. He treated me

"The only way you two are leaving this room is with a bullet in your head except you explain to me how exactly Hugo got out" Vito stated furiously, his patience running thin and I could see he was trying very hard to hold himself.If this is what his retained outrage looked like, I'd hardly want to see it lose. The two guards who had been on watch at the time currently looked like they were about to piss their pants and honestly, I don't blame them.Pete, Tony, Vegas, and I stood to the side watching the interrogation go down."We have no idea how this happened, boss...." one of them mumbled."No idea? Sleeping on duty? Do I overwork you to the point where your bodies are so tired you can't bear to keep your eyes open?" Vito lashed out in a quick streak, eyes sharp and deadly. It left no room for complaints or even explanation and it didn't look like the two had any reason for their actions anyways as they shook in fear.“Vito..." Pete started but he stopped when Vito glared at him."

Surprising myself, we got there in one piece, I realized I wasn't a shit driver."Okay, we're here finally. You can release your breath now" Vegas chuckled"It's only the afternoon, I doubt he's in," I said, checking the time on the phone that was provided to me by my boss. Only his and the others' contacts were in here but if I needed anything, I just had to call him."Well, we can just go in and see. If he isn't, we wait til he is" Vegas said."So we're just gonna walk in?" I asked as Vegas set up his gun."That's the only option we have right now. Besides, if we burst in hot it won't give Pierre any time to run" Vegas said.The door was already open, so clearly someone was there. So quietly, Vegas and I snuck in and as we stepped in further we heard voices. Staying in the shadows, we peeked just the tiniest bit to see who was in the bar. There were about five men, and one of them had to be Hugo's cousin."Who the fuck are you?" A voice from behind frightened us and a dude gaped at
Shadow Heiress Chapter 18 - Espionage
A knock waking me up from my sleep was presumably one of the few things in my life that have given me a scare. I was given a few days off to take care of myself after the last operation which I was getting the best of.Vegas being on the other end of the door proceeded to throw a bodysuit at me explaining that he and I had a 'top secret errand' as he put it, to go on.Though for whatever reason I was told to just say we were going to purchase some stuff which had run out in the mansion honestly I wasn't sure who would buy that, considering it wasn't my duty to do that.Whatever, I guess this was what I had to go through to pay for my fathers’ sins.Vegas and I were in the lobby getting ready to leave when Tony and Pete came through the door, returning from wherever they had gone to."Well what's the occasion?" Tony finally asked."None of your damn business" Vegas grumbled which made Tony shrug in return"We just going to get a refill of stuff exhausted in the house" I explained, hopi
Shadow Heiress Chapter 19 - Family Ties
**VITO’s POV**HUGO.This man was beginning to piss me off for real, I had tried to be calm about this whole thing so as not to bother the others but I could feel my perseverance sinking with every problem that man has caused me.What exactly gave this fellow the right to decide the fate for me? For the others as well? To die by his poorly organized trap? What was this all about, knowing the world we belong to, I should have known it wasn't going to be all easy.Thinking about it all had my fingers itching to pull the trigger and lay a bullet right between his greedy-filled eyes"Vito" hearing Juno's soft voice calling out to me brought me back to reality."We found the kid. A young boy, Alex, he can't be much older than ten" Juno said."Parents?" I asked and Juno shook her head."He isn't giving them away. As scared as he is, he doesn't want to see anything happen to them" she said and I sighed."Bring him here," I said and Juno nodded before leaving.Massaging my eyes, I sat up in m
Shadow Heiress Chapter 20 - Inkling
"Get them in" Vito Instructed, implying to Pierre and Thomas, Hugo’s cousin and friend who were tied and blindfolded.We were on our way to the warehouse where I had been kept captive some time ago, we were to meet with Mr Corentin and Hugo, and some other of their men to discuss the rising issues at hand and also get information about Lucas’ demise. Knowing Vito, he probably wouldn't accept anything less than having Hugo in his custody, which is likely why he had us capture those men."Boss is presently not in a good mood so please let's play along nicely," Tony said monotonously as he shoved the two of them into the waiting van."Vegas, you and the others are to lay low during the meeting. If anything goes down, you know the drill" Vito said while we all nodded before hopping into our respective rides."Wanna drive?" Vegas asked me in a teasing voice, wiggling his eyebrows as he held up the key to me."I'd pass," I grumbled, walking hastily behind Vito to his car. Pete, Vito, and I
Shadow Heiress Chapter 21 -Misfire
Hearing those shots, we all sprung into action grabbing our guns from the boxes and running towards the direction of the chaos. Picking up my speed, I could hardly see the scenery. I just focused on making it to the others. As soon as I managed to make out Vegas fending off two guys, I leaped into action and roughly shoved one of the guys off him before knocking him out.Tony was right behind me and he slammed his fist as hard as he could into the other guy before kicking him away."Are you alright?" Tony gasped and Vegas just nodded but he was not as I watched him grab his shoulder. There was a lot of blood moistening his sleeve and I could only presume it was a gunshot wound.Looking around, I saw a full-on battle going on as some of our guys who were out in other parts of the vicinity had now reached here fighting off Corentin's men. Pulling out my gun, I clicked off the safety before firing rounds into unsuspecting heads.It seemed Corentin had taken extra men of his own as I sa
Shadow Heiress Chapter 22 - Dejavu
Was that the sound of water? I was on water? That was the first sense that had come back to me and soon enough, my nose and eyes were twitching, trying to help wake me up. My eyes slowly opened, and I could see I was in a small bare room, with just me occupying it.I sat up gradually and the sound of metal clanging got my attention instantly, my hands and legs were chained to a pipe.How long have I been here? I was still wearing my clothes from the day of the meeting but they didn't smell bad so maybe not long? A few hours? I wasn't sure.Sighing, I tried to remember what had occurred. Well, we had the deal, the deal went to shit, a fight started and then they threw some kind of smoke bomb which turned out to be some sort of gas I guess. Now here I am, in some strange prison, once again.I suddenly looked up as the sound of footsteps got closer. The footsteps began to become louder in the hall and I stared at the door, wondering who was about to come through it.The door opened and
