It was about 10:30am when the car pulled into our drive way.

I had spent the night at a hotel since it was late an I was tired as hell.

I pulled my hair down from its bun when I got out of the taxi.

I made myself some coffee and toast. And ate at the island while I started to make plans for my day.

"Hey Eddie" I shouted to a passing butler

"Good morning Miss Mezahav" he bowed

"Where's my brother, KJ?" I asked.

"He's in a meeting in his office"

I ran upstairs to my room and took a well deserves shower. I washed and towel dried my hair and pulled it into a bun after moisturizing it.

I put on my usual eye liner and lip gloss and quickly pulled on the outfit Ally had prepared.

I strapped my dagger on my upper thigh and got the money from my bag. I made more coffee and took it with me to his office.

I knocked softly on the door and hear a gruff 'come in'.

"Good Morning KJ" I smiled and handed him the cup of coffee and dropped the stack of money on his desk. I put down the coffee cup and carefully count the money.

"This is more than he owed" her raised a brow.

"Yeah, I know" I answered back looking at my manicured nails.

Someone cleared his throat in the room making their presence known to me for the first time.

There were three men and a girl sitting on the sofa, one of them smirking at me and the other two practically eye raping me, the girl rolled her eyes at their animalistic behaviour and have me a dirty look. I ignored her sneer and turned my attention back to my brother.

"Baby girl I was just discussing with the vipers here a ball we are to attend" he said pointing out the man incharge, the guy that was smirking at me.

"We've been having some trouble at the docks lately, some small time gang have been robbing us from the inside costing us millions, we were hoping to get some information at the ball" he explained.

"So, when and where is this ball?" I asked.

"In two days, back in Cali" he answered sipping the coffee.

"And how long will we be gone?" I raised a brow.

"About a week" he shrugged.

"Killian, I never thought of you to be the guy to allow your slut to come interrupt our meeting" the guy scuffed.

"And I never thought you were a guy to jump to conclusions" KJ shot back "Meet my sister, Justina" he narrowed his eyes.

"You had as sister?!" he asked with wide eyes.

"Anyways, I'm gonna go pack" I ignored his astonishment and kissed KJ's forehead before leaving.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Don't leave, please" Melinda, KJ's daughter cried into my legs. She hugged my legs and cried while her mother Sage who was now 7 month pregnant with her brother tried to coax her to let go.

I sighed and stooped down to her level of height.

"Hey honey, don't cry" I gave a small sad smile and wiped her tears.

"But I don't want you to leave" she sobbed and buried her face in my shoulder.

"Will it make you feel better if I bring you back gifts" I pout and brush her blonde bangs out of her eyes.

I knew this would cheer her up a little. There was nothing this little girl loved more than presents and surprised.

She nodded eagerly "Now what's your favorite animal again?" I tapped my chin and pretend to forget.

"PANDAS!!" She shouted startling her mother a little.

"Yaay" I smile "So I'll buy the biggest panda I see and a pretty purple dress for my beautiful angel" I grinned.

"You promise?" She pout.

"I Justina Mezahav, promise to buy my little angel a giant panda and a pretty purple dress and make it home safely to deliver them" I pledged.

We giggled in unison and she gave me one last hug before I boarded out private plane.

Melinda was only 8 years old but she knew the lives her parents lived. She was smart and understanding, she knew everyday was a life or death situation. She never liked people and even now that her father and I were leaving she knew that was a 50 percent chance one of us or both of us might not come home.

I chose not to take a window seat incase I see Linda cry again and feel guilty.

I sighed loudly and blocked out reality using my ear pads.
