Vendetta Love

I’ll Find You

Kara

Only sane way to escape the void in this life is doing what I know. Being my father's daughter, being a Monroe.

Just f*****g forget anything else. Especially a certain person,

Being at that Ball the other day was just.. The Ball wasn't what I expected.

Every second my mind tries to wrap itself back to everything. My own mind tried to betrayed me and I can't have that.

If I gave in, then I had fail. I'm no better than all the other girls. I trained, and suffer, and starve myself in so many ways for love, love I want so bad but at what cost if I don't feel like me in it. All I know is the life of a mafia daughter who held more blood on her own hands. I can just go to being just some girl in love.

He won't take me back if he knew I lost it all. I wouldn't take myself back.

Strapping up my gear, hiding them underneath. I had a special meeting come up last minute, they requested me. I accepted.

We need to go over some details and when the target will be made. Given that the people have asked to bargain some items for my time. We accepted only because we lost a few cargo last shipment because of him.

"Ah. So great to have you onboard. Boss will be happy to hear this, Kara." The man chuckle as I close the trunk.

"Yeah. Well, let's say we can do the taken and I for one will enjoy an extra night out before the big one coming."

"Exciting. We're rooting for you. You have always shown hell. Father like daughter." He commented.

"Mm."

He leans off the car and waves his arm out. "Calls for a celebration, why don't we drink. Boss will love it once he comes by."

My eyes narrow at his crooked smirk. "I thought he was busy?" Reason why he didn't show and I don't care, he's an ass that inappropriately hits on me. "Plus, celebration calls after the hit is made. You made it convincing for my taste only. That's all we need to speak of."

He shrugs at me, laying a hand on my back and trying to nudge me to the open warehouse. "We shall. It's a surprise even."

I push back and rock my elbow back to hit his nose. He grunts in pain and shield the blood that's wanting to pour.

"I didn't come to play. Try undemanding me and-"

He wave out in surrender. "No. no." I glare. "Damn it. That s**t hurt more than when you were a kid."

"Then stop acting like one and let's just talk. Busy. I don't want to be here longer than what's needed. I have things at home."

"Ah, you can't take some time to hang out?" He flares.

Giving him an unpleased looked, he got to the point. He directed his men and we headed into the warehouse.

As we started off things felt off. The moment I parked my car I couldn't shake this itch. He kept trying to switch up our talk. His men around hang back but hover to a point, I held my palm close to my hidden blades.

"Tomorrow is best. A full swipe, Boss wants it all gone and only you can do that without a trace."

"I can. But I won't be setting up at that location." His was too public.

"Give us some trust, Kara. Your father did."

"Father didn't do my type of work. I set my own placement or the deal is off. I don't care how big of a hit."

He leans back and takes a hint. "Can't you trust us. We worked together for years. Don't be stubborn. It's not a good start."

I watch my ground as the men closed up a bit. Even Vick who I speak with.

"Things are different now. You must regain my trust. Not my father's. And you haven't don't a damn thing to have trust. I set that clear at my invite, weeks ago."

I see him balling his hands yet his face drops. "Boss is aware. Your declined of our presence there made it known."

"Be wise then. You requested the best to clear the job. Enough barking and muzzle up."

He took a moment, I watch and as I grab my s**t to drink. Waiting for him to call it off, he laughs.

"Oh, Boss is gonna be so happy. And it's gonna be all because of you. You're a damn prize." He states.

Saying nothing he circles his hand to his men. They clear and I see a few head a higher direction. "Come. Boss wanted to gift you something for coming, a gratitude."

We stand and as I should hesitated, I follow in space. Heading up the metal stairs I listen to the steps that follow. Making out his men.

In my surprise he had them upstairs. They stand in a line.

I look at Vick wondering what's behind the men. His soft laughter under his breath added to my itch. And I was ready for whatever he had.

"Now, Kara. Don't say we didn't try with you. But look what we have.." he sang.

The men move out. Revealing not just some man tied up to a chair. No. It was more than that.

"These motherfuckers are like gold to you right now, aren't they?" He laughed again. Every action he seemed to amuse himself more and more.

I say nothing and try to do little to not reaction to why Declan was here. Seeing his eyes shot up to me even had no remark.

"WOW, Vick. You guys are still idiots." His remark back was hilarious, I wish I laughed. "You ask for trust but you undermined me again and again, showing how I can never trust you. Maybe..." I twirl my body to him. "I should cut you, and your Boss loose."

"All his Boss wants is a closer eye on you." Declan shouted and the man near slaps him.

"A closer eye, huh?" My eyes slice Vick down.

"Whatever way you are thinking you may be right." That's the itch. " But know this. After everything. Your humiliation to us got you here."

I fake pouted. Like I care.

"The one person that had a way to convince you to come alone and be surrounded by us.. oh, it was no other than the man here. The one you want to hold so dear."

He said it like he knew of me and Declan. And at this moment I can care less if the world did find out the truth.

I take a step and despite the eyes, they all moved back when I walked close. "So this." Pointing to Declan. Who is close and closer to me at each step. "You wanted me from him and now what you want is to have me kill him to just pleased your Boss and give you the win?"

I search Declan around. Seeing the work they'd done. My hand met his shoulders and I do my best to look unbothered.

"Seeing you beat the boy to death like the daughter you are suppose to be will be good. Boss wanted more though."

Waiting he talks. "We thought of how to showcase him, maybe a box for his funeral. We wanted to make it fun for you." He added.

"Tsk tsk. You guys are always so shady I claim." I lean over Declan. My hand falls back as I grab a knife and hands it to him. My body laid over as we're shielded. "Don't you think, Barron?" I mocked.

"Shady don't start with it."

"So you called them or did.."

"He willing took our offer. We asked his father and lover boy jumped in. Can you believe it?" Vick's question was meant to hurt me. Clearly.

Declan looked ashamed. His head dropped and despite the hurt feelings inside. I push it out, out so hard I knocked him back.

"What's your real offer, Vick? Because what I'm getting out here is that your Boss is losing a lot of boys today. You especially."

His whole demeanor from earlier had dropped. Made this whole thing more fun now. I can see each man before me die.

All his men circle in and Vick reach for his gun. "Boss wanted you both gone. Extra points if you're still breathing."

"Well, I'm happy to disappoint him." My smirk laid in a malice way.

Hand on my weapon, I was skilled more and easy reach out to defend myself. Vick yelled and everything turn to a beautiful chaos.

Knocking Vick's gun only got him a step back. I had to fight my way through his men as he push back.

One after one I push each guy back if not s***h through to get ahead. I look back when I can, seeing if Declan had broken himself out.

Bastard was just there watching, a smirk on his face and untied.

Really!

"Will you hurry up!" I shouted as my blade cuts through a guys eye socket. Pulling back I duck and elbow another man hard.

"Sorry. I was in awe watching my girl kick ass."

"Not the time!" I reminded him.

Quickly a guy rushes to him. I turn and throw one of blades that landed at his back. Declan saved himself but with my help.

I glare at him hard. "Keep going. I'm gonna get my hammer." Oh, how I wish to kill him now, but damn Declan loves his hammer. Largely made to fit him physique.

Seeing him run off I can see his target. A big motherfucker by the metal stairs. He's close to his weight but I'm sure Declan can get to him.

"Come on, pussycat." A guy taunts me.

I crack my neck and his face fades away. I smile as he wasn't prepare to see me charge at him. Despite my size I was able to take down any opponent. Fighting him was easy. I push his body off the rail and the sweet sound of him crashing down was peaceful.

One man after another came. Each fight was rising my stamina. Making it down to the ground was easier and each man that fell from the second floor was in agony if not dead.

I can make out who was mine and who were Declan's.

Stabbing one man twice I kick him off with my boots. Another came in and before he reaches a heavy metal crashes his face. Bringing the man down.

I looked up to see to see Declan waving his hammer. "Hey, babe?" That damn smirk.

I roll my eyes and hear the space crash from the outside. There was others heading in.

Inspecting around our space, it was crowed. So little to hide and junk was f*****g everywhere. Fun tools to use though.

Declan faces me, caressing my face like he search's any marks. I push him back only to have him grin that damn look. He ran a thumb over my lips and I knew his thoughts.

Everything in me decline what his eyes wanted. And I still. "Not the time. I'm killing Vick along with the others."

"Then let's have fun, baby. More is here."

As close as we could stay together we parted for the hide of our ambush.

Given my skills and Declan's hammer, blood covered the ground and space easily. No man Vick had come after us was a match. They chose the wrong space when each reach had a weapon for us to use.

It slice and pour blood from body parts after body parts. Eyesights plucked out and guys falling. I adore the sound of bone braking when I butcher one off after another. Rusted out tools games in parts not meant were like Christmas Lights.

Fuck It was such a high I started hearing music in my head.

This got rattle up more when the smell of smoke hit the air. I catch eyes from Declan and I see us both are trying to sneak out.

No chance though.

Some man had a hit and took more than a minute to fight off.

The damn place just caught on fire so fast, it happened so damn fast. Old spill on the ground must of helped.

"Kara.." I didn't like his voice. I shook my head before he even forced me to face him. "Run. Run, Kara."

"Not a damn chance." I hide the plead but fail.

Snapping his eyes at me, his grip was a dangerous hold. "Don't start, Kara."

"No! I still need to get Vick!" I won't leave until I know he's dead.

"I got it. I saw him. You run. Run, Kara." This time when he said it, it was more determined. My whole body froze. He tightened his hold and feared cage me. "We'll find each other like always. Run."

So I did. I left his warmth, his safety, I left.

The damn place was bigger when the flame covered everything. The smoke covered what the flames couldn't and things crashed all around. Bodies burning and the smell lingered in the air.

I did my best to find an exist but each one felt farther and farther away. s**t. They're closed off.

Deepest reality came in and I stopped. Breathed in the toxicity and breathed out.

I couldn't do it. I couldn't just leave.

"Damn it!" I coughed.

Knowing the outcome I let it all break. There was no way. There was no exist even if I tried.

My feet stepped back before I knew it. I was searching back. Screaming out for him.

"Declan! Declan! Declan!"

Even when my throat begins to burn more. The fire grew and sizzle near me.

"Declan!"

My voice rasped as I fight to stay up. I couldn't see s**t, it was worse now.

Trying my best I was knocked down.

"Oh, you little b***h thought you can just get away."

My eyes widen a second, wondering why Vick was still alive. "It's true isn't it, admitted it?"

"Where is he?" I demanded as I push Vick off but held me back when try to stand up.

"Ha. Doesn't matter. You both let a great abomination to your family. What will your father say, Kara?"

"That he should have gotten rid of you sooner!" With all my might I wiggle in my core to bring him close, opening my mouth I chop down.

"b***h!"

He grabs me before I could run, both falling down. I couldn't fight much but did what I could. I roll on top and smile only to scream when I yank his arm into the fire.

He couldn't fight more and I kick him enough that he notch his body off, wrong move. A beam fell onto, crushing him to death.

I breathed out a 'thank god'. Only to be have my heart jumped out my chest when another beam fell behind me.

"f**k!" I felt the burn wound into my arm, blood came out and I crawl myself around before another falls.

The ceilings are caving in, I had to go. My body was weakening and putting full weight was a no, looking around everything was gone. Walking seemed impossible right now.

"Fuck." I tried getting up but it was hard.

I moved slower and my voice couldn't call out as I beg.

The only feeling to motived myself is to find him. Just like he always finds me.

In the last bit of my life that will fall. I crave being with him. I wanted his warmth. His comfort, he would give me the peace he says I needed.

In my death here I will take with him. With a Barron I would, him.

I couldn't do it anymore. I fell and coughed so hard my lungs dropped. "Declan." I call softer than pleading.

My eyes fall shout to when I can't help it like it was sleep. I beg and beg, and soon I was numb. The fire felt close and all I can do is imagine I was in his arm.

In the end it felt as if I was. My mind may be playing a trick but this I accepted.

My body was weightless and the warmth came so close I was happy. I was floating into a peace with my Declan.

"Declan."
