Luan's Pov. Five days had passed since the incident in the basement. Five days since Klevis had shot that man in cold blood.Right now, I was sitting outside in my usual spot in the mansion compound, under the large oak tree. The shade was cool and the breeze was gentle, brushing against my face.In my hand was a glass of wine. I took a slow sip and let the liquid slide down my throat. It was smooth and sweet, just the way I liked it.I had been thinking a lot these past few days. Thinking about Klevis. Thinking about what had happened. Thinking about whether I could still trust him.Though I know I shouldn't be saying this, but what happened down there in the basement was a little too strange to just overlook. Klevis had shit the man the very minute he was about to open his mouth and say something, probably something that was very important. Like the man had said, it was something I should know. Klevis was my best friend. My brother and we had been through so much together. But

Vera's Pov. I sat in the back seat of one of Luan's cars, staring out the window as the city lights blurred past. One of Luan's men was behind the wheel. He was quiet, focused on the road and honestly was grateful for the silence.I had just finished shopping at the supermarket. I had gone to pick up a few things we needed at the mansion. Nothing major, just some groceries and personal items.Of course I would have just sent Rose to do so, but most of the time sitting home all day was boring and felt stepping outside for a while was what I needed.Luan wasn't stopping me from going out, so it wasn't a big deal if I decided to go get these items myself. Right now, the shopping bags sat beside me on the seat, rustling slightly whenever the car hit a bump.I let out a long breath and leaned my head against the window. My mind was a mess actually. Everything with Luan was getting more complicated. I had fallen for him, it was obvious, I had fallen hard and that was a problem.Actually

Luan's Pov. "Boss, the men are ready," Boaz's voice came through my phone. "Everyone is armed and prepared. We're waiting for you."I held the phone to my ear and glanced at myself in the mirror. I was wearing a perfectly tailored black suit, black shirt underneath, no tie. Simple but sharp."Good," I said. "I'll be down in a minute.""Understood, boss," Boaz replied, and then the line went dead.I slipped my phone into my pocket and took a deep breath. Tonight was the night. No more waiting. We have done all the planning, so no more planning. Tonight, Clifford would pay for everything he'd done.I turned toward the door, ready to leave, but then I heard footsteps behind me."Luan?"I turned around and saw Vera standing in the doorway. She was wearing a simple white dress, her hair falling loosely over her shoulders. She looked beautiful, but there was worry in her eyes."Where are you going?" she asked softly.I didn't answer right away. Instead, I walked over to her and pulled he

Third person's Pov. Inside Clifford's mansion, the night was alive with music and laughter. The pool area glowed with soft blue lights that reflected off the water, creating a calm and luxurious atmosphere.Clifford could be seen sitting in a comfortable lounge chair, wearing a white silk robe. In his hand was a glass of expensive red wine. He took a sip and smiled, it was clear that the man was enjoying himself. On his table, Clifford wasn't alone, he was there with one other person. A friend of his, named Mark, a tall man with a thick beard. Mark was also holding a glass of wine, and he laughed loudly at something Clifford had just said.Around them, half-naked girls moved about. Some were in the pool, splashing water at each other and giggling. Two girls sat close to Clifford and Mark, one of them running her fingers through Clifford's hair while the other whispered something in Mark's ear."Life is good, my friend," Clifford said, raising his glass. "This is what power looks

Luan's Pov. We kicked open the door and stepped outside, immediately we stepped outside, we came out in a pool area and the first thing we noticed was that this area was chaotic. There were bodies on the ground. Some of Clifford's men, some of mine, there was blood everywhere, and standing in the middle of it all was Clifford.My eyes narrowed and my grip tightened around my gun the moment I laid eyes on him. He was still wearing a white silk robe, though it was stained with dirt and blood now. Four of his men stood around him, their guns raised.When Clifford saw me, his eyes widened."You," he said, his voice filled with disbelief. "You're supposed to be dead."I smiled. "Sorry to disappoint you."I stepped forward, my gun aimed directly at him."It's over, Clifford, this is your day of judgment" I said. "Surrender now, and maybe I will make this quick."Clifford laughed. It was a cold, bitter laugh, one that made me feel irritated. "Surrender?" he muttered, his voice a mockery
