Chapter 177 Sergei call
Draven POV

I sat in my office with the phone pressed to my ear. I listened to it ring a few times before Sergei answered.

“Haven’t heard from you in a while and have started to get worry.”

“I thought you said you didn’t care whether I lived or died?”

“I don’t,” he said with a chuckle. “My concern is strictly for my self-interest.”

I grinned, knowing he was only being partially truthful. “He’s dead?”

“He’s sitting at the bottom of Po River.”

“Such a beautiful place and it's too good for him, if you ask me especially after what he did to our family.”

“Cold as fuck, though.”

“I’ll talk to my uncle so we can arrange for the celebration.”

“Good.” I made my fortune as a hitman and I executed men for money but this time the client is my family and I just took care of Nico.
It was the simplest job in the world and I had one task and full autonomy to fulfill it however necessary.

Nico didn't know he left an enemy alive when he belittle me and killed my brother even though he was a jerk, my bills was paid and killing gave me a life of luxury.

It wasn’t close to the billions I should have inherited if my father was still alive but it was enough. “I had an issue though.”

Sergei turned serious. “What kind of issue?”

“I walked into one of his properties and I found someone more interesting. I caught her and
was about to slit her throat…but then I recognized her.”

“You recognized her?” he asked. “Who was she?”

I still couldn’t believe all the events happened coincidentally. I was supposed to get the paper of each Nico properties and bring it back to the family and then everyone believed she dead or disappeared because even before I took down Nico, I couldn't find her no matter how hard I searched and to see her in that house was the last thing I expected.

“Lila Falcone, Nico slut.”

“Shit…what did you do?”

“I didn’t have any other choice, I took her.”

“You killed her, right?”

" Uncle would be pissed, if he found out you were also trapped by her Falcone charm."

I didn't answere. " Why do this Lila girl have the Moretti guys wrapped around her hand, first it was Nikolai then Nico and Rex, now you?"

“Draven, you have to kill her. If anyone in the family hears about this....”

“I’m aware of the situation.”

“And you want to kill her anyway…”

“I did.” I still do, a little. “But when it came down to it…it didn’t work out.”

“That’s not like you.”

“I know.” I was cold and brutal. I didn’t think twice before taking a life.

Cruelty was in my blood. I lacked empathy and compassion. I was born of a different breed, so unattached to human emotion that I couldn’t understand it. “But I’ve made use of her…”

Sergei knew exactly what that meant and didn’t ask for clarification. “What happens when she tries to escape and the family gets to know, you held her all these while?”

“I haven’t figured that out yet. I was thinking of letting her go…but keeping her under my thumb.”

“How would you enforce that?”

I had a few ideas. “I’m not sure yet.”

“Whatever you do, don’t underestimate her. She’s a Falcone and who knows what she learnt from her stay with both twin brothers.”

The corner of my mouth rose in a smile, thinking of all the badass stunt Lila pulled while in my captivity but against all odds, she still pushed on.

When grown men wouldn’t get up again, she rose to her feet. She didn’t hesitate before fighting back immediately I grabbed her. Her Falcone blood made her absolutely
fascinating. “I know.”

Sergei kept on speaking and trying to convince me not to get myself killed by my uncle who was miraculously alive and we buried him and if he got his own son killed, he will do more to me his nephew but I assured Sergei, I had everything under control, I don't know if I'm thinking with my dick or brain but one thing is sure, Lila must die but I would use her until I get tried.

After my call with Sergei, I did some research on my next client and the man I'm hunting down soon. Phillip came to inform me he served lunch but I told him I'd pass because I don't want to face Lila yet and Sergei words seem to tuck in my brain, trapped by her charm.

I don't believe in fetish stuff but I honestly think he wouldn't be wrong after all because I can't explain why I enjoy fucking someone that has been with my cousin.
