Both vegas and pete were getting ready for the mission as nop gave them important information about how to execute this mission and what they were in for. " The Italian mafia is planning to attack according to the report master korn send. He wants you to kill them all before the war even start." Nop said. This made vegas smirk, "I'll hunt them down." Vegas said confidently, but pete looked worried he was not scared, just feeling of uneasiness was clouding his mind." khun vegas, i don't feel good about this mission. Something feels wrong." Pete said, feeling anxious. "My love, you worry too much. I'll take care of everything I'll hunt and kill each one of them, " vegas said with his usual cruel smile.

I was feeling really anxious about the whole thing as it felt too odd for the Italian mafia to just attack out of nowhere, but i was in no position to question khun korn's orders or wicked plans I just decided to ignore the anxiousness, but it was a gut feeling that something was not right, still i decided to trust vegas judgment, and his reassurance put me at ease. "We should leave, khun vegas." I said, vegas nodded, and soon we left the mansion.

The whole way the plane, Vegas's hand was on my thigh, which he didn't seem to notice, but it was making me feel something. i didn't say anything. Suddenly, vegas spook up, "Why are you turning red?" Vegas asked. My face started heating up even more.  "It's nothing khu-. " Vegas cut me in middle. "Stop saying khun we're not in public anymore. " Vegas said in his commanding voice. I could only nod as my ability to think disappeared when vegas touch me or talk in such commanding voice still i tried to remain serious. "V-vegas your hand." I said as my face heated up more, which made vegas smirk smugly." What about my hand?~" vegas said in a teasing and playful voice. "It's o-on my thigh." I said shyly. "Is it now~" vegas started moving his hand up slowly. Just when he was about to do something, nop interrupted. "We'll be at the location in a minute now." Nop announced. This made vegas sigh in irritation and annoyance.

After a few moments, i found myself in an expensive private jet. "We're not going in a regular plane?" I asked vegas in surprise. To which he smugly replied, "You didn't expect me to waste the little bit time we had before the mission with other people on a public plan. Now, did you?" Vegas asked. I started to blush when khun vegas said that. "No,I knew you would do something special." I said, smiling softly. I was not worried anymore because of Vegas's comforting and reassuring presence. "Pete ...." Vegas called me but didn't complete the sentence, so i looked at him curiously, waiting for him to finish. "What happened?" I asked for vegas to continue. "Are you worried? You have been really uneasy since we left." Vegas asked calmly. It felt really good knowing vegas cared for me enough to notice my distress, so i decided to tell him. "Vegas.... I'm not feeling good about this mission," i told him about my real emotions. "Pete, look at me. I swear that even if things go wrong, you'll come out unharmed." Vegas promised me. "Vegas, it's not about me. I'm a guard. It's my duty to get harmed to protect the people i work for. So, there is no need to worry about me. Just stay safe." This made vegas smile genuinely.

The flight there was really quiet and peaceful, but it didn't feel comforting. Rather, it was like the peace before the storm.

I was excited and ready to get some blood on my hands. It had been a while since i played the hunt as i was usually busy getting my little pet on my side and making him feel like he could trust me. The mission was just what i needed after being stuck with a lowly servant for so long that i decided to mess with his feelings more all the way there. i sweet talked him like i really cared about his pathetic feelings, while in reality, i wanted to laugh at his face and tell him how weak he was. As we landed in Italy, i saw him looking at me like a lost puppy. "What happened?" I asked pete. "I don't know Italian. How will i talk to others here?" Pete asked. This made me feel more good about how he'll only talk to me here and no one else. " It's ok, honey.  I'll do all the talking. You can talk to me." I said like i really cared about him. "Thank you, vegas," pete said. "No problem, my dear. Uncle said he already got a place here. So we'll stay in his mansion here it's quite far from the city, in the jungle, so we would be able to move without much attention, and it'll help our mission." I told pete, and he looked relieved to know we would stay somewhere safe and that we got a proper isolated space to plan and move. "Let's do it. Let's get it over with as fast as we can and get out of here." Pete said in his professional tone.  All the anxiousness was gone, and the cute soft little man was now in his calculated and smart bodyguard form, ready for some action.

We left the airport and went to the mansion it was quite far from the population, deep in the woods. Still, it was all well furnished and had everything a person would need for a long stay. Even though Uncle said this mission would only take a week, i was sure that it would take longer for me to satisfy my blood lust and to get myself full entertainment on the Italians' screams. I smirked at the thought of the week ahead. "Let the hunt begin," i mumbled under my breath excitedly. "Let's get fresh, and then we can eat and discuss our next move." Pete nodded in agreement. "Ok, let's get fresh first." pete said. Me and pete, we had a complicated relationship where we were more than friends but less than an official couple, so we went to our separate room and settled our thing we brought with us. After a shower, we both sat down to eat some food and talk. "Nop got us a map of the mafia lord's mansion. I want you to remember it. So it's easy to enter and escape. We'll kill the man, the black dragon, and I'll make sure to stab him before finishing him off to show he in no way meet my skills." The thought of showing such a big and famous criminal his place was a different type of satisfaction. Pete nodded his head. " I'll memorise it. All the exits and weak security points." Pete said.

The rest of the dinner was quiet. We talked about random things until it was time to sleep. Both me and pete went to our room. I was lying there on my bed, staring at the ceiling, thinking why i feel so different about pete. My heart was convinced that i had feelings for him, which were actually real and genuine, but my brain was yelling that it was just for the plan and that he was nothing to me. I was deep in thoughts when i heard a loud scream, which was none other than pete's.  I immediately got up and ran to his room only to see blood on his bed as a random man in all black was holding a knife to pete's neck, whose shoulder was already bleeding which showed that the man had stabbed him once and won't hesitate to do so twice. "LET HIM GO THIS INSTANT." I yelled at the man. I didn't know what to do. i couldn't attack and risk pete, but i couldn't just stand and watch pete getting killed, too. "volevi cacciare ma sei la preda ora che il drago nero ti insegue, quindi è meglio che inizi a correre (you wanted to hunt but you're the prey now the black dragon is after you so you better start running)" the man said smirking then with a quick movement the man pushed pete towards me and i quick catch him holding him in my arms. The man got in the window before jumping out. He turned around and said just one last thing. "che la caccia abbia inizio(let the hunt begin)," the man said, and he was gone. The whole scene made he realise I'm not the predator here im the prey the mafia lord knew everything including or arrival and location we were not safe and with pete hurt probably in no condition to fight directly. It was the moment the reality sink in that  the hunter has become the prey now. I looked down at pete, whose shoulder was still bleed, so i immediately got the first aid box to bandage his wound really well in case we needed to run out of the mansion and stay at another place. "Pete, are you ok?" I asked in a calm voice, trying not to show my worry. "Im ok it was just a sudden attack i was not prepared." Pete said, holding his shoulder. "It's ok. I'm glad you're ok. I need to check the car and phone signals. We need to get out of this mansion and get in contact with nop as fast as we can ." I told pete, and he agreed immediately that we should get out. I checked my phone, but there were no signals. we were in the middle of a forest, after all. I tried not to panic and went outside to find the car set on fire. The last hope of our escape was burning in front of my eyes. We were trapped in a forest with a ruthless mafia lord hunting us. It was all a game of life and death now
