The edge of love

Chapter 1🖤

                                                                       1. Returning home

Andrea POV:-

It was a long flight from India to Washington DC. It's strange coming here after almost 2 years. A little detail introduction about me. I'm Andrea Ferro, but no one calls me that expect for my brother. I'm called red sparrow, I'm a undercover agent working for FBI. My parents were killed when I was 2 years and my brother was 3 months. We were taken over by our godfather and director of FBI, Christopher wray. We started training since very early age. The first person I killed was a American gang leader when I was 11 years old. Since then we are unstoppable, we trained our whole life's just to serve the country.

But there was always a thing missing from our life's, maybe some love. But again we were not allowed to love. They taught us that love is a weakness in this profession.

I landed about 20 minutes ago, I was wearing a black crop top with black leather jacket and black jeans with shades on!. I loved colour black since forever, most of my clothes are black. As I exited the airport I saw a black Mercedes Benz parked right in front of me. As I walked towards it the door opens and reveals my best friend Natalia wray. She's wray's only daughter, we grow up together,trained together, we practically did everything together. She and Aiden are even dating. As soon as I saw her a smile came on my face.

"LIA!!!!!!" I said and we ran and hugged each other tightly.

It was no surprise we missed each other.

"Ohhh Andy, it's so good to see you again" she said with a sob.

Yep my best friend is the most typical breed of emotions. But when the time comes she's the baddest b***h.

"Come on let's go HOME" she said with a sadic smile.

I just rolled eyes smiling and got inside the car.

At FBI headquarters...

I got out of the car feeling the familiarity of the place I called home. I wonder if anybody remember me or not. I took a deep breath looking at the huge building.

"Home sweet home babyyyyyy" List came from behind making me giggle a bit.

"Come let's goo" she said holding my hand dragging me with her.

We got inside the building, as we approached towards security check, I saw Alex at his usual place as I remembered.

"Ohh my my, is that red sparrowww" he said getting up and hugging me.

"Yes it is" I said with a smile.

"Welcome back sparrow" he said giving me a wink and a salute.

I smiled and went past him. I saw everybody whispering around me and I was walking. It was good that they knew who I was. We got into the elevator and I saw lia fidgeting with her fingers. I narrowed my eyes but I knew if I ask her right away she won't tell me anything.

"Hey I forgot how's Aiden" I asked her.

It's been 2 years since I talked or saw him. He might know I was coming. But I haven't heard anything from him yet.

"Umm I don't know, he maybe fine" she said not looking at me.

"Ohh trouble in paradise huh!." I said teasing her.

She just looked at me with a sad expression.

"Okay shoot tell me what happened, what is this about" I asked getting in front of her.

"Me and Aiden broke up" he said in a low voice.

"Wait--WHAT? When? WHY??" I stood there shocked with my mouth hanging low.

"A year ago" she mumbled under her breath.

"But why?!" I asked her again.

"Well I heard that he was cheating on me, so I went to a club I meet a guy I slept with him, and then Aiden finds about it and sleeps with somebody else when in reality he didn't cheated on me the first place!" She explained everything to me, I was looking at her with my eyes wide in shock.

"WOAH" I never thought I would come back with all this here.

"Come on I already feel terrible about it, please you don't start" she said getting out as we reached the top floor of the building.

"Okay okay fine I won't say anything" I said as we started walking.

"6 months has been a long vacation, I really need some work to do" I said with a bored expression.

"Well you're wish is my command" she said with a smirk as she opened the door of the big conference room and revealed Mr.wray.

I just smiled knowing why exactly she brought me here. The last time I was here was 2 years when I was giving a mission to go to India. Since I've been MIA for a while, I was excited for the upcoming mission.

"Red sparrow reporting after 2 years Sir" I said standing boldly in front of Mr.wray.

"Take a seat my child" he said in the authorized voice.

We sat down and the projector rolled.

"Red sparrow this is your next mission" Mr.wray said and I looked up on the screen to see the most wanted, ruthless, cold hearted criminal. NICHOLAS RENALDI.

"As you know that he's wanted world wide but that doesn't stop him from hes criminal activities. A year ago we tracked him down on the bases of cash transactions but he got away. Now he has started trading with gold which is hard to track. He deals with drugs, he trades with he's own guns. Human trafficking is done under he's name. It's he's pattern that he deals with this stuff on one place but the consignments are done on the other. He's the mafia king, all the mafia bosses or mafia families are under him. No one has ever crossed him, but who ever does they can't breathe or be alive the next moment. He own an armament company worth billions, but besides this he own almost all the night clubs in Italy. He has killed alot of people as you know" he said explaining everything and sat down in front of me.

"What's my job sir" I said in a serious voice.

"You're job is to get every proof of he's illegal activities until we get a fair chance to catch him actually committing a crime" he said looking at us.

"He has a very strong family support. He's men can't be broken, they are to loyal to betray him, all you have to do is voo him in you're trap so that you can get you're hands on his illegal documents" he said standing up and started walking.

"Wait you want me to seduce and make him fall in love with me" I said a bit laughing.

"I don't care what you have to do, it's your job. All I care is to put that man behind bars or get hanged" he said angrily.

"Got it sir" I said standing up.

"All 3 of you are leaving to Italy tomorrow morning, get your things packed" he said in a strong voice.

"Yes sir" we get and got out of the room letting our breath go heavily.

"Woah I've never seen dad so intense, but yey finally we we'll get to work again together" she said excitedly.

"Well I'm you know he said the 3 of us right?!" I said stopping myself from laughing.

"Oh no, no no no no. Oh god it's going to be so embarrassing" she said as she buried her face in her hands.

This mission was too serious and dangerous even for me. I dealt with gangsters, ruffians, drug dealer and other mafia bosses, but going into the den of an actual lion is dangerous. He's the mafia king, and as far as I know he's no joke. He kills people for a sport. Even though Aiden and Natalia was going to be there, I knew it was me who this mission was assigned to not them. I bid my byes to lia and drove to my and Aiden's apartment. I was excited to met him after so long.

Meanwhile in Italy....

Author's POV:-

He was angry, he's eyes were bloodshot from smoking and moreover he was covered with blood of the man he was torturing.

"Tell me who you work for and I'll spair you the torture" he said while cleaning he's bloody knife.

"I swear I didn't said anything" the man said crying in pain as he's fingers were cut and was wrapped with hot burning iron chains.

"YOU f*****g THINK THAT YOU WILL SPY ON ME! ON ME! NICHOLAS RENALDI AND WOULD GET OUT WITHOUT BEGIN HURT!" He screamed at the man while putting a knife on he's neck..

"I, I work for the dragons, they told me to sp---" he stopped as he's neck was sliced with the knife.

Nicholas watched as he died with no remorse or any expression.

"Maluma cut he's head and deliver it to the dragon's and clean the place, kol get rid of the remaining body" he said as he removed he's bloody shirt and throw it on the floor. He got out and drove away without waiting for the response.
