Betrayals Of My Family

Valentina’s POV I looked over to my side to see a small petite woman sleeping peacefully on the lower half of the bunker bed, in a lightly dimmed small room. I envy her peaceful sleep, it is something I have desired for the last 2 years. All those days and nights I couldn’t sleep a wink, call it insomnia or any other condition, but all I know is the sound of my broken heart’s heartbeats that doesn't let me sleep. I wasn’t like this at all, I was a happy, kind, naughty, and cheerful kinda girl, but life, or I should say someone whom I considered my life, made me like a living monster. For the past 2 years, I've been living in 1 of 300 rooms in this assassin training camp, and burning myself with the fire they started. I am training and just training to take down my own family. Every day I fight to survive, every hour I work to be on top, and every minute I plan The De Leon family’s downfall. I was lost in my thoughts when the bell rang, alarming everyone to get up. The woman named Lalita woke up from her deep slumber, groaning. She looked up at me and smiled, showing her pearl-white teeth. I don’t know why she is here, as she is always so happy and physically so petite, but then she is one of the world’s best hackers. Lalita Kumari, from a small village in India, has 5 sisters and 1 brother. She was married off to a middle-aged NRI when she was 10 years old, and he sold her to the American mafia, who sent her here to make her an assassin, and she chose to become a hacker and that too the world’s best. She will be leaving the academy in a week, just like me. Although I know a lot about her, it’s not vice-versa, she is just a roommate for me. Nothing else, I stopped making friends or building relationships a while ago, as I cannot trust anyone now. I too got down from bed and started my morning routine, such as brushing my teeth, having a cold shower, wearing my assassin gear, and brushing my non-existence hair. I then join elite assassins in the breakfast hall. I stay clear of the groups formed here. Basically, I'm a lone wolf. I took the table in the corner of the hall. It is the same place I have acquired for the past couple of years, no one dares to sit here with me or without me. The last who dared to is now 6 feet under. Why wouldn’t she? She dared to challenge the Captain of the elite division, and I had to kill her. But I regret I didn’t torture her. Should’ve given them a show! I put my feet on the other chair and rang the servants to bring my breakfast. After waiting for 3 minutes, John brought my freshly made breakfast, which is 3 eggs, 1 waffle, 2 chicken breasts, and coffee. I started eating my breakfast, and in no time I finished it. I then got up, with everyone’s eyes on me, I went to the middle of the hall and there was a pin-drop silence, a servant brought my work iPad and handed it to me. I look at the schedule for today and started assigning the duties, workouts, and classes to the 20 world’s best assassins in their domain, sitting in the same room. Today is the most crucial day for each of them, from the week from now we will complete our journey in this academy, well not all of us. 2 years ago, 50 members, a mix of junior, senior, and elite levels, as well as 3 completely new entries one of them is me, started this lethal journey to become the world’s most dangerous assassin. Now, 20 of them are left and today is the final eviction, 3 of those 20 assassins will be demoted, 2 of them will stay in the elite team for more training, and 2 of them will start all over again. It’s not about whether you are ready to graduate or not, it’s all about being the best from others and staying on top, like me from the first day I am always on top. And today as well, I will be accompanied by 12 more best assassins, who will join me on the last mission. After giving out orders, I went out of the hall towards the elite wing, when I reached there, I took a right and went into the control room. The hustle and bustle had all died down as I entered the room, everyone stopped what they were doing and straightened up to properly address me. This is the kind of respect I expect from everyone, and that’s exactly how I want the new members of my team selected by the academy to behave. I was requested to meet the chief for the same exact reason, today he will introduce me to the team members, as the head of the last mission we will be doing as students of this academy. I wonder what the mission will be if they are all on their feet today. It must be some important one to keep them on their toes. I signalled all of the members presented in the control room to relax and go back to work. I took my seat at the central computer and started collecting the information I needed. It took me a couple of hours to collect the information and live feed of Yakub Suleman, the leader of a terrorist group and the handler of the arms deal happening in Moscow. All I got from the sources is that the deal will happen on 27th August 2021, meaning 2 weeks from now, and its happening between The Dragon Claw Gang, who operates every illegal work in southern China, and Yakub Suleman’s right-hand man and younger brother, Mosin Suleman. The value of this deal is estimated between 20-25 million dollars. I guess I will be giving them a surprise visit. Its not that I like to meddle in someone’s business, but this is pretty serious as, according to my intel, Yakub is planning to target Italian and American mafia families for some kind of revenge on his father’s death. Shakib Suleman was the mob boss of the Turkish mafia family, and he married an Iranian girl, who, after his encounter and death by the three mafia families, went back to Iran, and when Yakub turned 15 he joined the local terrorist group as he couldn’t take over the Turkish mafia. This all happened just because his father Shakib was after my aunt and tried to kidnap her when she married the right-hand man of the American mafia. My family(the real one) and the American Mafia did’t like that and, well, they killed him. Now this moron is planning revenge and I, being the responsible daughter, have to stop it. I will be putting my life at risk for the family I once considered my rival. What a Life I have! All these family issues started 2 years ago. They practically started even before I was born, but I will blame it to the worst day of my life.
