Once Bitten, Twice Destroyed [COMPLETE]

CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT

Luciano

"Viktor!" I yelled before breaking his door open. The house was dark inside and quiet, maybe this is a trap.

Viktor called us to tell us that Paige is dead, maybe that was a trap too. This war was too easy, he didn't even put up a fight.

She can't be dead. I won't accept it.

I heard footsteps behind me and found Dario in the doorway. I ignored him before heading upstairs.

I see the prostitutes leaving our house every night. And it's making me sick, Paige doesn't deserve that, dead or alive.

I checked all the rooms but they were empty, I went into the last room and noticed a dress lying on the floor.

That's Paige's dress, she wore it that  Sunday. I bent down to pick the dress up and found that it was wet. Why is it wet? Did she drown? Did he drown her?

I walked around the room but I found no other evidence. Just the dress. I left the room before going back downstairs.

"Mano!" I heard Dario's voice, I noticed an opened door so I went into the room and followed some stairs leading to a basement.

"There's food here and a blanket." He said so I walked closer to him. I picked the blanket up and something fell to the floor. I picked it up and noticed that it was a necklace with the letter P on it.

A smile crossed my lips and I chuckled. If this isn't a sign that Paige is still out there I don't know what is.

"Where do you think he is?" Dario asked and I frowned.

"I think he's nearby." I said and Dario scratched the side of his head with the back of his gun.

"Do you think that maybe he's in hiding?" He asked again and I clenched my jaw.

"Why don't you find out Dario? What the fuck have you done this far?" I asked angrily.

"What have I done this far?" He asked in disbelief.

"Yeah except for fucking around with girls you don't give a fuck about?" I asked and he glared at me.

"You don't know what you're talking about." He said angrily.

"I know what the fuck I'm talking about. And when we find Paige you're gonna explain to her-"

"Paige is dead!" He yelled at me so I gripped his shirt into my fist.

"She's not dead! She's still out there. You fucked up and telling yourself that she's dead won't solve your fucking problems." I said angrily.

"I wanna kill his sister." He said and I frowned at him.

"No." I said blankly.

"I wasn't asking for permission." He said and I glared at him.

"You're not killing, Vera." I said angrily.

"Who's gonna stop me?" He asked and I punched him in the face.

"Kill her and you'll be at war with me too." I said and he froze in his spot.

"She's not worth it, brother. Trust me." He said and I looked at him in disbelief.

"I'm not fucking playing. Touch Vera and I'll kill you myself." I said before walking past him and heading back into the house.

I let out a deep breath before placing my gun back into my waistband.

Vera.

I haven't said her name in so long. I haven't thought of her in so long. I couldn't save her then but nothing's stopping me now.

She didn't deserve what they did to her, I should've been there. Viktor trusted me and I let him down it's no wonder he hates me. He never said it but I know he hates me.

I guess we're even now. He killed Paige just like I killed Vera that night.

Stay tuned to find out more about Vera.❤️
