Paris pov

As soon as Aarika reached Veerika's penthouse. She got out of the car and walked towards the entrance, passed the security check. As she entered inside, Veerika was sitting on the couch her back fully leaned on the couch and legs crossed. As she saw Aarika she nodded to her indicating her to start speaking.

Aarika told her about the interaction between her and Brandon and as per Veerika's doubt, he was sus. How can a company suddenly grow so much overnight without any trace of struggle. There are no details about Brandon's past life in his background check Veerika ran.

Something about Him made Veerika uneasy. He reminds her of him. But whatever she got in his background check about physic, he doesn't have any similarities with him. But how can Veerika shut her inner thoughts.

She had seen him, not once but twice. Once at the mafia ball and then when she was captive. By that time he still had that old face. And Brandon and co. Has revealed it's ceo even way before mafia ball, then how is it possible.

There could be two chances, either her intrusive thoughts are wrong or either one of them is a Doppelganger. But why Doppelgang that motherfucker. Luca said they doesn't know how he's alive but they know he's alive, Ain't making any sense.

Is someone was creating all this webs of lies to get her stuck to it. Is Alex Brandon is connected to Luca Brandon. Or just a trick? Oh god someone is playing way smarter than she thought. But she smirked, "it'll be fun" she thought.

Italy pov

Yuvraj was passing by the living room to get some work done when Ivaan interrupted him, "do you know where Veerika is?" Ivaan asked his voice full of concern. Yuvraj rolled his eyes and said, "why? Do you need something and why do you even care?" His voice dismissive.

Yuvraj's tone angered Ivaan but he composed his calm and said "we're leaving for India tomorrow and she has to come, remember I'm her guardian now" which got attention of Yuvraj.

"Why so suddenly?" Yuvraj asked, "it doesn't bother you, you guys helped us in a very helpless situation and Indian mafia will owe this to you" God this man and his never ending ego. Yuvraj rolled his eyes and left saying, "I'll let her know".

Few moments later

Yuvraj has just entered his cabin. He sat on his swivel and pressed the intercom, telling them to deliver him a coffee. He leaned back on the chair, his hand ran through his hairs, in frustration as he doesn't know how much part of the mission completed in Paris.

And it wasn't any less frustration when Ivaan threw a new bomb at him about his warrior going back to that hellhole of a home again. If everything was in his control, he would have bubble wrapped her from the world.

He sighed pushing away the thoughts and called Shawarma as Veerika's phone was right now unreachable for tracking reasons. "Hello , shaw? Yuvraj here. Where's V?" He asked directly the main topic. "Sir donna is right now handling the Brandon case would you like to leave any message for her" Who is he?! That Yuvraj will leave message for his warrior to his asshat! "None, just tell her to try to contact me, it's urgent"

He hung up. The call hadn't been any help instead a frustration by shaw saying his warrior is busy for him.

He was sitting on his office when a knock came on his door. It was his assistant. He was here to let him know about the meeting with the underworld chief as Veerika is not present here.

(Paris)

Sensor lights flicked back to life with every step she took, her black Yves Saint Laurent heels clicking against the cold concrete floor.

Guards bowed their heads as she passed, the weight of her presence enough to make even the toughest men shiver. This was it - the fear she wanted to engrave in them, and she had succeeded.

Her steps came to a halt outside a metal door labeled "Meeting Room."

As she entered the boardroom, every single man stood up and bowed. This was the power of the Death Angel - the very embodiment of dread.

She walked to the head of the table and sat down, giving a slight nod that signaled everyone to take their seats and begin the meeting. One of the men switched on the projector.

Headlines:

Death Angel's dread spreads through the streets and homes of Paris. Paris is being targeted once again by the Death Angel - the same figure who made the entire French Mafia vanish overnight.

The living nightmare has returned to Paris. What new disaster is France about to face?

A dreadful case has shaken the city once again. Forty-six men found dead - bodies burned and tortured beyond recognition. What are her reasons behind these brutal killings? Can the French government do nothing to stop her?

France had not yet recovered from the last catastrophe caused by the Death Angel, and now this.
Are these signs of an upcoming mafia war? Is the government truly incapable of protecting its people?

Are we not safe in our own country? What do you want, Death Angel?

The projector turned off, and the lights flickered back to life. The men in the room turned from the screen to face Veerika, who was smirking.

One of the Italian mafia advisors spoke hesitantly, "Donna, this act of yours could be dangerous. If the government steps in, what will we be able to do?"

Slowly, her chair swiveled to the right, revealing her face - that side smirk sending chills down every spine in the boardroom.

"If they have a death wish," she said coldly, "then let them step into this death loop of mine."

Everyone exchanged wary glances, then nodded knowingly before bowing to her and leaving the room.

Only Shaw remained seated. He asked quietly, "Ma'am, what about the men we have in the dungeon?"
