Riley

"So everything is set in motion, sì?" Rodolfo asked Dante and he nodded in response.

After Dante and I fell asleep together last night, we woke up early to start the day off. He and his Italian security and friends have been in meetings all day long. Travis, Davina, Rosie and I decided to just chill around the house unless told otherwise. So basically we sat around the east wing's living room and watched movies all day up until around five p.m. Now. We were all called into the meeting room and took our same seats as last time, Rodolfo was the first to speak.

"Correct. Lorenzo should be coming in any minute, his flight landed a bit ago from France. He took care of our Berger problem within the first hour of being there. When Lorenzo comes in, he will immediately begin training Riley. She will train until Lorenzo sees fit. Once training starts, Marco will find Richard Salvatore. When we have narrowed in and pinpointed his location, Lorenzo and Riley will fly there. Lorenzo and Riley will eliminate Richard off of the playing field and then we will settle with Dimitri Sokolov and his men." Dante explained and everyone murmured their agreements.

"I see... and then?" Rodolfo continued and Dante glanced around the room at every one of us before continuing.

"Then we will do the same to the Russians. First, we will have Marco draw up a blueprint of the house the ball will take place. We will take out all of their warehouses one by one, undetected of course. They are throwing their annual Russain meets Mexican ball and when they do, that is when we will strike all of their warehouses. After most of their men will be gone, we will send Lorenzo and Riley to the important Sokolov's working our way on up towards Dimitri. We do all of this on the same night. While Lorenzo and Riley work their magic, Travis, Davina, and Rosie will be searching for Xavier and Clay. Once the two are back in our hands, they will go to one of the getaway cars. When Lorenzo and Riley are done, there will be another getaway car. You run." Dante explained, mostly towards me and I gulped, nodding in response.

This was a lot of responsibility being dumped on me. First, I have to meet a complete stranger that happens to be one of the best assassins ever. Then, I have to trust him to turn me... into him. Then, I have to kill the guy that has made my life hell with him. Then, we have to take out an entire Russian generation. I may not like it, but if these chain of events that I have to participate in will get me my big brother back, then I would do anything. I would march the world and back times a billion if it meant to get Xavier back into my life.

"Alright, sounds good. Dismissed." Rodolfo barked and everyone got up from their seats, immediately piling out of the room like a pack of trained dogs.

I got up from my seat but Rodolfo shook his head at me, "Stay seated, please. Lorenzo will be in soon."

I sat back down and nodded. Dante walked my direction and smiled, kneeling down in front of me as his uncle left the room.

"I will be working with Marco tonight, trying to pinpoint Richard. You will be okay, yes?" He asked, Italian dripping from his words. So much that it almost made me wet. I shook away those thoughts though, I need to focus right now.

"Yes, I will be okay." I assured him, forcing a smile. He smiled up at me, his green eyes meeting the smile on his face.

"Lorenzo will teach you well, gattina. All you have to do is listen and cooperate, sì? I have to go now, come to my room later." He said and I nodded as he stood up from his once kneeling position. He bent down quickly and pressed a warm kiss on my forehead before leaving the room.

I was left by myself now, the room was torturously quiet. I could hear my own heartbeat pulse in my ears. My heart race quickened whenever the doorknob turned sideways. I sat up straight in my chair and kept my gaze on the door until a dark hooded figure walked in.
