- I think we should attack now.

- Are my men ready, Liam?

- Yes, sir.

- Then, you can prepare an attack, he said calmly as my eyes widened in shock.

- What?! We shouldn't do that!

- Athéna, calm down.

- Kai! Our men aren't ready for that. They will die!

- And do you think I care about that?

- They are humans ! You can't send them out into the wild like that. What about their families?

- Oh my goodness, shut up, remember, you don't have a word to say! I am the one who decides and if I want them to fight, then, they will fight!

- I forgot how heartless you are. You know what?  I'm done. Do what you want, but remember, if they die because of your stubbornness, it's your fault if we lose this battle.

I leave angrily the room and go to my bed room, regretting the day I accepted to help him.

Flashback

The rain was falling as I watched the two men, dead,  on the ground.

They was murdered.

They was murdered by me...

I killed them...

When I realized what I did, I fall on my knees, crying about how cruel I was.

- Oh my God! I'm a monster! I'm a murder... I am a fucking murderer... I shouted as I gripped my hair, still crying.

- Angel, stop crying... I will fix it for you.

I saw three mens walking in my direction. I grabbed my gun and pointed it on them.

- Who are you ?

- Calm down, I will help you with this... he said as he pointed the two mens I killed.

- But I want something in return.

- I don't need your help.

- Are you sure about that? It seems to be your first murder. I'm sure, you are lost now and you don't even know what to do. Am I wrong?

I thought a moment and he wasn't really wrong... Right now, I just don't know what to do... and I don't want to go to the jail...

- You don't answer my question... who are you?

A grin appeared on his face.

- Let me introduce myself sweetie, I'm Daniel Kai Marcelo, the King of the Italian mafia.

My heart started beating faster and I felt the anger growing in me.

- Before you say anything!  I-am-not the murderer of your families and that's why I'm here, I... need your help to find him.

- How can I trust you? Our families are enemies.

- Listen babygirl, I will never waste my time in something like that and as you can see... You don't have a ''family'' anymore so you don't have anything to lose, right?

- Right, so why I should help you? Hm? They died, and these two are their murderers.

- You're so naive! Do you really think you could kill the murderer of a whole mafia family so easily? These two are just common criminals. Let me help you to take your revenge

I stood up and watched him.

- So, what exactly do you want me to do?

After that night, I decided to help him to find who was behind this whole shit but now, I regret, I feel useless. Kai always takes the decision and doesn't care about my opinion.

Someone cut me out of my thinking by knocking on the door.
I see Liam enters in my room and I rolled up my eyes.

- Does he send me his minion for forgiveness?

- You know that he will never ask for forgiveness Athy... he said chuckling, as he get closer to me and sit on my bed.

- You know Liam... One day, he really will make me crazy and I just want to kill him.

- I know, I know but be patient, he always knows what he is doing. He doesn't want to show it but he cares about his men, trust me, he will never let them die.
