Chapter 33: Smile of betrayal

Chapter 33 Smell of Betrayal”

IZZY POV

I walked back when she hadn't turned back or gave me a listening ear.

I wasn't going to beg my own enemy, never. That's the most foolish thing I have ever done, aside from trusting Luca though.

What am I doing here still wasting more time when I should be getting out of here immediately.

I have been foolish once and this is the last time I would be letting my heart do the thinking and not my brain.

I hated the sight that I had been the only one who has been used like I was some pathetic annoying thing.

Now was my only chance for me to show that I was more than the dainty Mafia princes that they were accustomed to.

I need to get out of here now that the guards are off, maybe she had given them a break.

But I wouldn't take my chances. And the only rule I had learnt from my father was how to hide my tracks if being chased by men who want to harm me.

Which means I must act like I had left this castle while being in a hidden place. And I would leave as soon as she leaves to find me back.

And with that thought place at the back of my head, I ran and walked towards the exit, breaking it and letting the security camera capture me running into the woods and I skidded down and ran back bidding from it.

I ran to the library as the map on the wall helped me. That would be the least place that would be checked by anyone as their thoughts would be that I ran away trying to get away from their captivity.

“Where the fuck is that bitch?’ Durk asked, and Selene cursed running out of her room and I smiled to myself.

“She left through the back door. The security camera shows that she had left through it now

And they have to be serious about finding me, because I won't be letting my cover get blown by them immediately.

“What about getting her back here now? I hate to say this, but I don't want anything bad to happen to her.” Selene asked, and I snapped my head.

She wanted me alive despite everything that she has said to me. Why? I couldn't grasp my finger around it and I couldn't even dare try thinking up a reason as to why she would want me alive.

“I know. I know." Durk replied, and they ran towards the direction I had planned for them to follow.

Why was she worrying about me, And I looked away climbing up the stairs. This was an odd library and I rolled my eyes while trying to understand why I had gotten myself entangled without even trying.

“You are the only reason why I haven’t killed her, you are taking her more seriously than you need to.”

I rolled my eyes and he looked away walking out,running if I was to be real.

" I know you are right there. I can smell you and if you know what's best for you. Leave before he finds you or I won't be able to stop him.”

“Why?"

“Why what?"

“Why are you helping me? Why? You shouldn't be helping me and here you are doing so. Why are you so nice to me?”

" Get lost before she comes.”

And with that I walked down not even wasting a heartbeat as I understood what she meant.

I was in fucking trouble if the she she was talking about funds me here, then I would be in nothing but oddly huge problem to me..

“And please, don't come back if you value your life so much. Don't ruin your already ruined life."

Running through alternate directions, looking back to see if they were chasing me. A mistake as I had arrived at a main highway and a car zoomed back jolting me back to reality.

I couldn't leave here alone, this was a dead end an

d I needed to use a car. Beg for a ride rather.

“Please. Help me!" I yelled, and a car swerved to a stop.

“Hello, Chica."
