"WHY ARE YOU HELPING ME ?",  I ask Nicole. She had patiently waited until I calmed down then brought me a pretty sundress (two sizes too short for me) and told me to go take a shower in Dante's bathroom while she got someone to get rid of the body.

I spent what felt like forever in the shower trying to clean the blood. Even though the blood was now gone it still felt like I had blood on my hands.

By the time I got out of the shower, my body and mind both had gone numb. When I saw Nicole sitting on Dante's bed furiously typing on her phone, I grew cautious.

She should hate me right now. I tricked her and tried to kill her brother, she had every right to just leave me in that state but she didn't... Why ?.

When she doesn't reply but just smiles, I start getting annoyed. "I assume you know by now that I tried to kill your brother, he's injured right now for gods sake!. After all that why are you still doing all this ?."

She puts her phone away, amusement dancing in her eyes. "Because Zoya Khan you didn't trick me. Seeing the bruises on your neck, I thought a women like you deserves her revenge and I had no doubt you would take the first chance you get. Plus I knew you couldn't really kill Dante. However I did severely underestimate you, I'm impressed by how you managed to put a bullet in him."

She laughs seeing the shocked look on my face. "And he's grounded me and I wanted revenge.", she shrugs like it was a completely normal.

I stand there for a solid two to three minutes, trying to process what I just heard. "So you're saying you put your brother's life in danger just because he grounded you.", I ask in disbelief.

She bites her lip suddenly unsure now. "Well when you put it like that..."

"WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING ?!?", I explode. What the fuck was wrong with this family ?. Insane. Each one of them. Insane.

"Why are you angry ?, aren't you the one who just shot him ?", she raises an eyebrow a smirk playing on her lips.

"I had a reason, you didn't !", I retort back.

She sighs, "I gave you a chance. If anything you should be grateful."

Genuinely, what was wrong with this family ?.

The bedroom door bursts open and two men walk in. One was in a suit, while the other simply looked like one of the bodyguards."What are you doing here Gio ?, don't you have men to murder ?.", Nicole looks at the man with such disdain I grow speechless for a minute.

Nicole was always so sweet even with the little crazy side to her. I couldn't imagine she could ever think badly about someone.

The man in a suit who I assume to be Gio just looks at her with regret shining clearly in his eyes.
