“ Ah! Once a traitor always a traitor..” Vincent voice taunted behind Adriano, his sharp grey eyes locked on Nathan’s pitiful form. “ Edna, get out of the way.” Adriano ordered through gritted teeth, removing her hand away from the gun. “You promised! You promised back in Sicily!” Edna all but screamed lowly in a hurry as he walked past her, halting him. “You gave me your words that you would give me anything. I want you to spare his life.” Edna reminded him, the promise he gave her when she had saved his grandfather life. Edna breath caught in her throat as he looked at her with his blue eyes which hold the intensity to burn the world down. “ What if I break my promise?” He asked in a cruel, cold voice and Edna flinched back at his words, closing her eyes she hold back a sob. Damon waited calm

Edna grunted softly trying to prey her eyes open, but she felt as if tons of weight was over her eyelids. Her fingers twitched, as she again tried and succeeded only to flinch and close them again. Someone was saying something , her disoriented mind tried to grasp whatever was happening around her. Finally after so much effort, her brown eyes adjusted to the light, fixing themselves on the ceiling of unfamiliar room. She looked around, pressing her palms flat against the fluffy mattress, trying to sit up. That’s when she noticed an IV attached to her left hand, frowning she sat up. Resting her upper body on the cushioned headboard of the king sized bed her brown eyes scanned her surroundings. You are free.  Panic settled deep inside her chest, when her hazy brain got cleared. Adriano got shot. With her trembling hands she tried to remove the IV attached to her hands, ignoring the palpitation of her heart. 

"Damon?" Damon jerked back in present on her voice.  " Um.." clearing his throat, he sit up straight. " He didn't not heard anything from him." a slow blink was returned on his answer.  " He didn't." Edna murmured lowly, closing her eyes, sprawling her fingers over the back of her neck she tried to soften the impact of the words her mind had registered just now.  " Can you call him?" a request was made by her with closed eyes making Damon frown a little.  " I need to talk to him." Damon couldn't help but to give in her request because her eyes were a swirling mess of emotions.  " Fine. But I will talk to him first then-" " Put it on speaker." Edna cut him off shaking her head gingerly when Damon pressed the phone on his ears.  Her words received an arched brow but nonetheless, it was carried out. Edna softly

It was awfully quiet in Adriano’s office. The anticipation and nervousness lingered in the air, Edna could smell it. Her brown eyes was stuck on the man whose broad back was facing her, his long cylindrical finger skimmed over the rim of the coffee mug. Edna bit her lips, puffing out a breath she was holding nervously as Adriano calmly sipped his coffee as if he has the whole time in the world still not acknowledging her. From the time she had known Adriano Pietro, it was first that she was in the range of his eye sight yet his oceanic orbs which always seems to be finding her didn’t looked at her even once. This thing stung right at her heart. However, the man in black shirt was merely trying to calm his nerves, clenching unclenching his jaw as it physical pained him to not let his eyes wander towards the source of his peace, his doll, his girl, his all.  Edna last straw of patience flew from her when,

Thick red  blood splattered on the dark purple wall beside her. Blood dripped from her brown hair, red blood making it appear like black before her body fell on the college tiled floor with a thud.This could have happened if Adriano wouldn't have been fast enough. As soon as Edna uttered those words, Adriano quickly threw the paper weight his fingers had grabbed before aiming directly at her hands. A shriek left her lips at the abrupt force, her fingers throbbed with pain. The gun clattered to the floor, it's noise echoing along the ragged breath of blue eyed man. Adriano crossed the room in a blink of an eye almost with inhuman speed making Edna's eyes widened as he caged her between the wall and his hands. " If you had died. I would have brought you back from the death and killed you again." Adriano voice was low, threateningly calm making her gulp and look down. Her finger still was hurting, she wondered if it was b
