After Raf left showing my room, I have been laying on the bed staring blankly at the ceiling. I'm thinking everything and nothing at the same time. I didn't expect things to turn like this. Hell who would have thought that I am related to  the Cleopatra D'Angelo. It's all too crazy. And the part about me being mafia princess.

Honestly I don't even know if I will be able to meet their expectations. Cleo is fearless, strong she is someone whose one glare is enough scare a grown ass man away. She is just perfect. Whereas I...I'm next to nothing in front of her. There is no comparison between a Queen and an assassin. But this is my only chance. And not to forget that I have to find that bastard first. I hate this, I'm fine until I have company but the moment I'm alone, the moment I let my mind think it's chaos.

Getting up from the bed pick up my burner phone and dial Iris. All these thoughts are overwhelming and doing nothing will not help. I don't want to get sucked in that dark place again. Iris's voice pulls me out of those thoughts.

"Hey Ira, I was going to call you. You won't believe this." Her voice is dead serious, and I have a feeling that whatever she has to say I won't like it.

"What is it Iris?",I prepare myself for whatever she has to say.

"You had asked to find out about what happened while you were away. And I found something." Feels as if she us trying to delay something.

"Just get to the point Iris." I clenched my teeth in anticipation.

"That letters, the threat that you came across? It's not the first one they had started arriving about 3 years ago." The feeling of dread spreads over me. I don't want to hear what she has to say anymore. But beingscared will get me nowhere. "And the person who is sending this has been keeping a watch over you since the start. Along with the letters there were pictures of you," Bile rises in my mouth hearing those words. Please don't let it be what I'm thinking. "There were pictures of you in a Cafe, library of every public place you have visited."

Taking a deep breath, I try to keep my voice even."Are there any-any pictures of-" She cuts me off before I can complete. I'm grateful for that. I can barely get those words out.

"No there aren't any pictures like that." I let out a breath which I didn't even notice I was holding. "I'm trying to look into the CCTVs and trying to track down the person who send it. But so far nothing has showed up. What do we have to do Ira?" She asks the answer to the question which I myself don't know.

"Try to look into it. If the threats started around the same time as that incident then the person behind this it is the same person behind all this. You try to track down the person. I have Nero looking into it as well. We will have the leads by the weekend. Until then we wait."

"Yes boss, I'll get to work. And Ira?" I hum in response. "Don't worry we won't let anything happen. I'll keep out a watch for any suspicious activity. Take care." Ever the sweetheart. I let out a meek smile.

"You too, take care." I say hanging up on her. Falling on the bed face first I scream into the pillow in frustration. Great another thing to deal has been added to the list. Ugh, I'll go crazy if I stay in this room. Any longer. I need to let off some steam or God knows what will happen.

I get out of room and try to find the gym. Keyword try. Roaming for the next 15 mins aimlessly not being able to find it, I come to the conclusion. I'm lost here. In the process of finding the gym I forgot my way to my own room. Just fucking great! This is a really big place, I should have asked Raf to give the house tour when he showed me the room. Ugh now what?!
