An opportunity will arise in which these two will have to work as a team for an unimaginable amount of money that can bring the biggest of enemies, together. Her name is- "Why am I here, Santino?" I asked him before taking a sip of my double espresso. He chuckled softly "You'll see." "I don't like that stupid chuckle you carry around, it means you're plotting-" I ran out of words when I saw the woman hopping off an SUV. "What the fuck is she doing here?" I shot a glare at Santino. "I have a job for the two of you," he said as he stood up. "No," I stood up and she stopped in front of the table where we were sitting. "I'm not working with this snake," I pointed at her. "Hi, Ilya." ------ This book can stand on its own but I would recommend you to read Mrs. Mafia and Code Name: Athena, first. 🚨 mature content!
