Devil's Daughter

Chapter 8

Valentina's pov:

"Is she going to be okay?" I question the doctor as we stand next to Blake's hospital bed.

"Yes ma'am she will be okay. A couple of days of recovery and she should be just fine." He explains before excusing himself out of the room.

"Fuck." I let out a sigh while placing my hands on my hips. My eyes glance at Blake who is sleeping peacefully in her bed. Seeing her in pain got me much more worried than expected. This woman is supposed to be my worst enemy and yet I feel so bad for hurting her.

I pull out her phone from my pocket and unlock it. For a second I freeze when I see Jay has sent her the audio. My breath hitches as I send it to myself and without much thinking I press call on Jay's contact.

"What's up boss?" He answers in a sleepy voice. It is around 1 o'clock in the morning so I understand him.

"Jay it's Valentina."

"What the fuck did you do to her?" He asks anger evident in his voice.

"Listen she's in the Los Angeles hospital, she will be okay but I feel like I should let you know." I answer calmly.

"What happened?"

"She can tell you when you get here."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome." With that I hang up the phone and place it on the bedside table next to the blonde. With one last glance at her I go to leave the room but before I can a voice startles me.

"Thank you Val." I turn around seeing Blake 's eyes open a little bit.

"Of course." I smile leaving the room.

"Boss we need to talk." My security guard says and I sigh loudly.

"Before we do I want 2 of our guys at Blake's door until her family gets here." I order and he nods signaling for the 2 men behind him to stand at the door. "Now what's up?"

"I finished my background check on Luke Smith." He says.

"And? Spill it."

"He's Gerald Smith's nephew."

I stand frozen looking at him in disbelief. My fists start clenching in anger as I wonder how we missed this.

"So Blake is telling the truth." I say and he nods his head.

"Probably ma'am." The man opposite me says.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck!" I exclaim feeling so much anger bubble into me. Both from hurting Blake for nothing and from not seeing this earlier. If I had seen it earlier Lily would be sleeping in her bed right now.

Lily's pov:

I feel my head throb as I open my eyes and I'm met with darkness surrounding me. I try to move my hands but I discover they are bound behind me. A little bit of fear and shock rushes through me but being a part of a mafia, I've been trained for this since I was 7.

A little bit of light shines to my left and I realise it's a door opening. The light slightly reveals a large man and he slowly walks over to me.

"I won't hurt you."

My sister's words run through my head

"Step 1, never let them know you're not scared."

"Please, let me go I didn't do anything." I say a fake tear falling down my cheek.

"I won't hurt you if you're sister cooperates." He chuckles.

"Step 2, take in your surroundings."

I frantically look around me to seem scared and to take in my surroundings. There is a small window to my right. The window is places higher on the wall letting me know we are in a basement. I can also see a little bit of tires through the window which can mean we are in a house.

The man in front of me is wearing a black suit. However he has a badge pinned on it. The badge reads S. And I recgonize that S. It's the logo for the Smith mafia family. So the Smith's kidnapped me.

"Kid calm down!" He shouts and I jump a little bit, calming down but letting my breathing still be a little bit frantic. "You'll be fine if she cooperates don't worry." He says with an evil smirk on his face.

Blake's pov:

My eyss fully open and I look around the room expecting to meet Valentina's eyes but instead I meet Jay's and I'm confused.

"Jay what are you doing here?"

"Valentina called me, saying you are in the hospital so I came as soon as I could." He explains. "Are you okay?"

"Yes I'm fine, just a broken rib don't worry." I wave my hand and sit up a little bit. "Where is Val?"

"She left a little bit ago." I nod and look to the bedside table seeing my phone there. "Jay get everyone of our men up and tell them to meet us at the normal meeting spot."

"Why?"

"Val needs help."

"But boss-"

"Jay, she can be the devil's daughter for all I care but I'm helping her."
