VENGEANCE.

"Welcome to my humble abode," I introduced, taking off my shoes.

Ivano went to take a step in but I quickly pointed to his shoes. "Shoes off."

He hastily removed them before entering, his eyes widening at the interior.

My house isn't big or spacious but it had everything I needed. I also had an eye for interior so I did make it look as fancy as possible. It felt like my home.

A ping interrupted us and I glanced down at my phone.

"Listen, I know this is sudden but I need to go back to work for a minor issue," I explained. "Perhaps we could watch a movie when I'm back? You can invite whoever you want and I'll invite my friends if it's okay?"

"Hold on— You work?! Also do you have any spare clothes?"

I nodded, interrupted by another ping.

"Sorry, I really need to go. I'll be back as soon as possible!" I promised before exiting. "Oh and the spare clothes, you can use Apollo's! It's in one of the rooms."

"Okay, see you later Nat!" Ivano waved.

Settling down in my car, a phone call appeared.

"Я уже еду! Что это такое?" I grumbled, annoyed at the fact that I have to do this shit on a Friday night.

I'm on my way! What is it?

"Нам удалось захватить крысу. В настоящее время он находится в подвале," Jace reported calmly.

We managed to capture the rat. He's currently in the basement.

"Убедитесь, что никто не трогает крысу. Если я приду и увижу, как кто-нибудь из наших людей трогает его, они мертвы," I seethed, driving over the speed limit.

Make sure no one touches the rat. If I come and see any of our people touch him, they're dead.

"Roger that, boss."

I sent a quick text to Apollo and Athena to come over to my house in about 2 hours for that movie night with Ivano. The more the merrier.

I tried inviting Maya but I forgot she's under house arrest with Matteo.

I managed to reach in 10 minutes with cops tailing behind me. But I manage to lose them.

Spotting Jace at the entrance waiting for me, I nodded at him.

"Jace," I greeted.

He nodded back. "Boss."

"Tell me more about this guy," I requested as we entered, all eyes suddenly shifting to me and Jace.

I strode forward until someone decided to smack my ass. "What's a beauty like you doing here?" he smirked. "Mind sharing with me, Jace?"
