Valencia
The cold unfeeling assassin
A shadow, a ghost... she kills and moves on
She never sticks around for the consequences
Until she meets Adonis
And he entices her. Lures her in to his chaotic life.
And she can't resist but stay.
Adonis D...

"Everything ready for tonight?" Enzo asked "Nearly, still waiting on the caterers" Athena complained, overseeing the staff putting decorations up The hall looked... extravagant Too extravagant
But it was their son's birthday after all And I thought it was a good idea to have it here. If she could get into the house then having a party anywhere else would be even more vulnerable At least if everyone was coming here then Enzo had around fifty gangs and mafia groups to defend him.
"Will you be alright tonight kid?" Enzo asked "I'll be fine" I grumbled I had barely slept the past week Nine days since we've seen her Nine days since she stabbed me and left us alone... again.
Maybe I was becoming paranoid
"I'll go check everything's set up" I said Nine days and we had nothing Nothing from her name Nothing from her blood She wasn't registered into any kind of database She was a ghost.
And if Alora couldn't find anything about her then... we were fucked. "Seth? You all set up?" I asked, finding him with his arm around Alora Fuck. I knew they weren't coping
"Are you two okay?" I asked "Yeah, yeah it's just hard sometimes, when it comes around again" Alora said sadly, sniffling I knew how difficult it was for them Four years since Leon has been gone. And not one of the anniversaries for his death went unnoticed
He was Enzo's best friend, Alora's husband Seth's brother They all lost a piece of them when he died in that shootout.
"Seth? Dad wants you" Kallius chimed, leaning in the doorway "Happy birthday kid" Seth said, standing up, nudging Kallius on the way out
"He also said you had to get ready" he went on Fifteen years old and he walks around like he's in charge already "Now?" I asked, it was only three.
"He wants you all ready by four so you can finish setting up by five" he drawled out boredly "Fine" I said "It is my birthday, you could put some effort in" he joked "Yeah yeah" I dismissed
"You don't have to come tonight you know? Take a night off" I suggested to Alora
"No, no it's family. Family come first Adonis. Besides, if your little girlfriend turns up, we all need to be alert don't we?" She chuckled, wiping her eyes "She's not my girlfriend" I said annoyed
