Mia

I was wandering alone in the hallways in search for a bathroom. I finally came across a door which looked like a bathroom door, if you ask me. I was about to open it when i felt a sharp pain back at the back of my head. Next thing i know, darkness consumed me.

Slowly opening my eyes, i was greeted with pure darkness. My hands and legs were tied. I sighed as realisation hit me. They knew.

"Hello, anyone here?" My voice echoed across the room. I sighed as i tried untying myself but failed miserably. "Mia pierce." A familiar voice said, making me stop in my movement. A smirk made it's way on my lips, "You found out, huh?"

"I did," Alec came and stood infront of me, a smirk tugging on the side of his lips, "Now, tell me, why are you here?"

"To kill you." I simply stated. He chuckled darkly before saying, "You do know killing me is signing for your own death, right?" I hummed in agreement at his words as he raised an eyebrow at me.

Of course I knew, dumbass. Here's the thing, my father wants you dead for I don't know what reason and I just came here to do his dirty work. He doesn't give a fuck whether I die or not.

Of course i did not tell him that. I kept my thoughts to myself.

"So," He broke me out of my thoughts, "Who hired you?"

"Why would I tell you?" I said and hissed when i felt a pain shooting at the back of my head where they hit me earlier. Closing my eyes, i tilted my head to the side, hoping it would stop but it didn't.

"Are you okay?" He asked, sounding almost worried. I scoffed before replying, "No can't you see? Your men hit me with god knows what on the back of my head. It fucking hurts—", I hissed, "They hit a woman from the back and you call them men? Pussies is what they are."

His eyes darkened as he clenched his jaw, "They hurt you?" He asked earning a nod from me. "Untie me." I said, making him raise an eyebrow at me. "Why would i do that?"

"Oh come on," I sighed before continuing, "You think i didn't know killing you means i would have a whole mafia after me? Im not stupid, i have done my thinking which is why, i haven't kill you, yet." I gave him an innocent smile which he rolled his eyes at.

"If you try anything, I'll not hesitate to kill you. Understand?" He said in a cold tone. I nodded as i really had no intention of doing anything of that sort. My intention is finding out why my dad hates and wants him dead.

"Yes, i'll not do anything. Now, untie me." I groaned as he took his sweet time untying me.

"You'll be coming at my house with me. I don't trust you—", He started as he continued untying me, "I have to keep you close so that I can keep an eye on you."

I mentally groaned at the thought of meeting his parents.

Once he untied me, we made our way to the living room where we were greeted with tons of men. All of his men. Ignoring their gazes, i went to sit on the nearest couch while Alec went to sit on his couch.

"So," Axel started, his gaze fixed on me, "Who really are you?"

"Mia, an assassin who was sent here to execute Alec there—" I pointed to a smirking Alec, "But failed miserably."

"Who sent you to kill my brother?" Axel asked in a serious tone. I admired the love they have for each other, really.

I thought about telling him on our way here but i could not. Telling him means risking her safety and it is something i cannot do. She is the only person who's ever loved and cared for me. "Im not talking." I replied.

"Why haven't you kill her yet, boss?" An unfamiliar guy asked, sitting on the couch across me. I glared at him as he glared right back at me.

"That's none of your fucking business." Alec snapped, making him tear his gaze off me.

Alec

I don't know why I haven't killed her yet. I've been asking myself this question ever since I found out about her.

"S-sorry boss." He stuttered, making me roll my eyes.

"What do we do about her?" Axel asked, looking at Mia who scoffed. "Im right here, you know?" Axel shook his head with a chuckle.

"Nothing." I stated, my gaze fixed on her.

"How about we kidnap her—" Noah started and stopped with Mia cutting him off, "Which you already did."

"As i was saying—" Noah continued, rolling his eyes at Mia, "We contact her father—", Mia snorted making him stop. Noah looked at her, raising his eyebrows before continuing, "Surely her father must know who sent her to kill you. So, her father will contact the man and say that she failed her mission. Then we trace the phone call and kill the man who wants to kill you first."

"You'll do nothing of that sort." Mia said making everyone, including me look at her.

"Why not?" I asked, raising my eyebrow at her, "It's a good plan."

"Because, it won't work." She said and immediately stopped herself as she realised she just gave us a piece of information. However, she did not stop. She sighed before continuing, "My father is not going to believe you because I've always done my job correctly."

"Does he not know you'll have the whole Italian Mafia after you if you kill me?" I thought out loud.

"He does." She sighed as i furrowed my eyebrows at her, "Then why-" She groaned cutting me off, "Im hungry, is there anything to eat?"

Choosing to ignore her trying to avoid my question, i gestured to the kitchen. She muttered a 'Thanks' before running off to eat something.

"Something's fishy here." Axel stated the obvious. I rolled my eyes at him before saying, "We should go home soon. Mom called me earlier, asking us to come home for dinner."

He nodded, "Are you bringing Mia with you?"

"Yeah, gotta keep her close so that i can keep an eye on her." I stated. To be honest, i could just leave her here with several guards keeping a look on her but, i wanted to take her with me and I have absolutely no idea why i wanna do such a thing.
