Untouchable

Chapter 47

On the previous chapter...

'Can we have useful conversations here please?' Noah asks

Carter his composer changed. 'Yes right. How did Asteria's men arrive? What happened while we were upstairs?'

'They arrived through a second boat, Asteria was on it too. She said her greetings to Carlos and fucking slaughtered everyone on it. Don't worry the birthday boy is still alive'. I say and kick my heels off.

Finally my feet can breath now.

Carter glared at me. 'I will deal with you later'.

I scrunch my eyebrows. 'Why? What did I do now?'

'Nothing'. He replied back

I glared back at him. 'Then why do yo-'.

'Because I said so, now stop asking stupid questions'. He snared at me

'I need a doctor for Alessandro, call his own personal doctor. Carter glared at Uzziah. 'And I need an update on the yacht, how many people have died'.

'Anything else?' Uzziah asked

'No, that's it for now'. Carter says

Does he have borderline? Just a serious question.

A couple minutes ago he was all joking around and now he wants to play the boss?

Well I mean he technically is now since Alessandro passed out.

After a while we had arrived at our house.

I didn't even bother to take my dress off or take a shower. I immediately went downstairs to Lucas to ask him a couple of questions.

'For what do I own this pleasure, Miss Ricci?' Lucas smirked at me

I grabbed a stick and slammed it on his head. 'Tell me everything you know about the plans of Asteria'.

Madeline's POV

'And what do I get in return?' Lucas asks me.
'My hospitality'. I reply.

'No, I will pass'. He smiles at me.

'It wasn't a question Lucas. Tell me everything you know about her plans'. I repeat myself.
'And I told you my answer'. He shrugs.

'Lucas, do I need to remind you that you are the one who is bounded to a chair?' I ask.

'No need for that. How has your life been dear?' He asks.
'What are her plans?' I ask him.

'You tied me up here. I have't seen her in months. How am I suppose to know that?' He says.

Do I look like an idiot?

I slammed him again with the stick.

'Answer'. I demand.
'She will destroy you'. He whispers.

'Newsflash'. I say sarcastically.
'There isn't much to tell really. She is enjoying your suffer. After a while she will get bored of this and will bring an end to this empire'. He replies.

'And how does she wants to bring an end to this?' I ask.

He shrugs his shoulders. 'Simple: she is going to kill Alessandro and take over'.

'Over my dead body'. A familiar deep voice, that belonged to Carter entered the room.

He locked the door behind him and stared Lucas deeply down. He grabs a chair and sits right next to me, in front of Lucas.
