I snap my eyes opened quickly reaching for my knife but it was not on my tight where I always keep it. I sat up in alert, my eyes darting around the room swiftly, from vessels, to portrait, to couch, to TV, no danger, then I spotted my weapons on the nightstand. I groan falling back on the bed I didn't notice till my back hit the comfy pillows. I rubbed the swelling from when I hit my head. "Shit." I muttered when I saw the clock, it was past ten in the morning, I never really slept that long, but wait how did I land here? I wonder for a while before deciding to shrug it off, I grabbed my weapons and briefcase with the complete money in it. This is getting really weird my memories are blur, all I recall was his Amber eyes, I didn't remember sleeping in this hotel room. ********** I toasted the briefcase to Tony once I got out of the car. "Complete!" He exclaim after inspecting the dollars. "I heard you had a disagreement." He pulled out a cigarette and hand it to me. I lean on the car as he brought the lighter to my stick. "Yeah. I would've gotten the other briefcase containing the goods is that son of b***h didn't come on my way!" I bang my fist on the glass. "Son of b***h?" Tony equally lighted one for himself. "Yeah, a perfect mother freaking fucker." I spat. "His name? So that I can wipe him off this earth." He snarl. "Don't know don't care! After all he saved me." I suck the smoke and puff it out. "What?" "You heard me perfectly T, the asshole helped me, for that I'll spare his ass."  I blew my last puff of smoke and dropped the cancer stick crushing it. "But you don't spare my ass." He spoke in his suppose to be seducing voice. "Do you know if your father was not the boss, I would have exploded your brainless head." I started walking in the building, he runs after me. "Ouch! That hurts, babe you broke my heart." He playfully hold his chest tightly. I rolled my eyes totally ignoring him as I continue to work, Tony can count himself lucky, he is the only person to speak with me with such audacity, if I had met him in different circumstances, he would have been my best friend, but with this current me, he is no other than my partner in crime, my second in command that's all. For me friendship and relationship don't exist, they only occur in fairytale for kids. Tony push the giant door opened directing me in. The only sound in the giant hall was my heels coming in hard contact with the tiled floor. "Gracious grace, Anderson!" Ben exclaimed with Arms wide open. "Boss." I stare at him blankly. "You did a great job with Joe, I would've prefer him dead than wounded." He rubbed his hands together. "But that is also accepted." Ben is the only family I've got, the only person that I really care for, he was dad's best friend, after that cursed night he took me in as his daughter, I'm what I am today thanks to him. "We've got another deal." He put his hands together smiling an ear to ear smile. "Package?" I asked with a slight tinge of boredom in my tone. "No." He simply said with the smile still plastered on his face. I frown slightly with a raised brow, my lips pursed in a Line. "You'll be living with the Chucks." At the pronunciation of that name my heart tingle, I've been waiting for this moment for a while now, The Chucks are the highest ranked Mafia in this town, particularly Kendrick chuckles! A reputed killer. I've never seen him but I've heard wonders about him. I clenched my fist suddenly feeling a wave of jealousy inside of me, I'm the best female killer in town but Kendrick is the best of bests, no gangster stand a chance against him, it will be a great pleasure to see him in person. "What is the mission." I asked in a less interested tone. "You help them with a deal that will last one month." "One f*****g month?" I frowned. "Yes, and we'll gain a lot! You in particular, Anderson this is the second step to your revenge." He grinned. I became focus, "what do they have with my family's death?" "Calm down, And. You'll find out after the 31 days." He smiled smugly, like it was a sort of game. The look on Tony face was just blank but I was able to read through his mask, we grew up together, he is so weird that I have to wreck my brain to read his expressions, right now he is upset about something but what? He is such a weirdo with emotional problems. "Tony you'll accompanied her just for this night, to verify if it is as agreed. I don't want a rupture of contract." Tony half nodded, He gave me one last smile before walking away, murmuring something under his breath. I didn't bother to cast Tony a glance, I walk pass him. ******** "Wow," Tony whistle when he saw me. I wore a strapless shot back pond front, red gown. I walk gently to him and slapped the lust out of his eyes. "I'm bless! I'm bless!" He cried, "I was slapped by an Angel!" His eyes were wide like saucer. I lowered my lid and sigh. "Come in delicate flower," he held the limousine door for me. I went in without a word, he slam the door shut. Half way through the ride Tony decided to speak up ruining my little moment of peace. "I feel like shit." He said out of blue, his eyes came to a dead stop on mine. "Do you know why?" "Dunno, don't give a damn!" I look straight in his eyes, for a split second hurt flash in his gray like aluminium eyes. I was stun. "Yeah," he fake a chuckled. He opened my door. "After you." I didn't hesitate before getting out. I knew what he was about to say. The cold wind of the night hit my naked skin, some might find it too cold, but I found it just perfect, the heat in me is more hotter than volcanic Lava. I inhale deeply. "Take my arm." Tony pulled out his right arm as he stood straight. "No." I simply said. "Fine." He went a head to ring the door bell, of the giant gate with bars. The gate parted open automatically. From where we are, you could hear the blasting beat of music, and the Aura of party. I walk side by side with Tony. I took little glances at my surrounding, A gigantic fountain stood in the middle of the compound, the floor was tiled from the gate to the entrance creating a tiny path as guidance to the door. Looking at my left and right I saw nothing but trees both big and small sculptured in different shapes, heart, birds, guns, and a giant C, the match perfectly with the grasses cut low. "The Boss is waiting for you." An average height guy with bald head said, he was covered with tattoo from head to wrist and his eyes were bloodshot. Tony half nodded. The guy lead us in. As soon as we step in the music stopped, all eyes were on me, murmurs erupted among the crowd. I stood straight, am not surprise many of the eyes stop on my bare skin, this is what happens when you wear a strapless gown, you become men magnetic all of a sudden. Another man in royal blue suit with black jeans pant walked to us, his hair were stack black a perfect match with his tiny black pupil with baby blue ring around them, his balls were white as snow and his gaze was just as dangerous as he was, pointed nose, sharp jaw, danger! "Anderson Blake, had I know you were this pretty, I would've set up a welcome party on my private boat." He took my hands in his and place a gentle kiss on my knuckles, his eyes refusing to tear away from my chest. I smiled down at him, "and you're?" "Robert Chucks." He raised to his normal height but refuses to let go of my hand. My smile only grew an inch wider, "oh, it is a pleasure meeting you." I spoke in a soft passionate voice. "Would you like me to introduce you to the family?" "Sure." I flutter my eyelashes in a flirtatious manner. He grinned smugly baring his white teeth, "teeth as white as snow heart as black as darkness itself" yeah I know . The crowd parted and made way for us as we walked. We approach a gray hair man in in white suit, with a little mustache, wrinkled eyelid, dangerous gray like blue eyes, with a lopsided smile playing on his lips. "Anderson, as pretty as her name. You're the most welcomed." He smiled. "This is my pa, Rolando." Robert said. "Nice to meet you Mr Rolando, I can see you have a great house and camp." I kept the smile while my eyes squint in the crowd, Then they came in a dead stop settling on his, my heart skipped. I've never felt this way before, I've never been intimidated by a simple stare all my life but his were just fascinating, I desperately try to tear my eye away but my soul wasn't willing to, I stood paralyze under his spell. What the hell was he doing here?
