First Mission

Elena's Pov:

"You ready?" Antonio questioned as he walked into my room. I was already dressed. I turned to look at him before nodding. His eyes narrowed as he looked at me, and then he stalked towards me. He towered over me effortlessly as he stared down at me with a smirk. I knew that smirk alright. He leaned down and kissed my collarbone. "You have no idea the amount of things I wanna do to you right now and hear you moan my name, just like you did this afternoon." My eyes widened. "Your vibrator probably wasn't as satisfying as my dick was it? You even went as far as watching porn."

"Oh my gosh." I covered my mouth. Did he have a CCTV camera in here?

"You thought I wouldn't know?" He asked with his lowered voice.

"Antonio..."

"It's time to go amore. Perhaps we could have a moment, in my car. Or..." I looked up at him. He pushed me down to the bed.

"Antonio I don't think..." I wanted it either way. Fuck I was getting so addicted to this man. He leaned towards me.

"You don't think what amor?"

"I don't think we should... ow...do this right now." My jaw dropped when he thrust a finger into me. "Antonio." He pulled his finger out.

"Fine. I won't have you for dinner till when you come back." He said it darkly and leaned down before kissing me on the lips. The sound of it echoed in the room and I nearly got lost when we heard someone clearing his throat. We both looked up to see Leo standing by the door. He'd obviously come to check if we were ready. I looked up at Antonio who straightened again, then adjusted his suit. I noticed his wrist. He got a new tattoo and it was sexy. He helped me up before we both headed towards the door. Leo on the other hand with Jessie by his side walked down the corridor, discussing with themselves.

"Is Jessie part of this?" I asked innocently while he nodded.

"She's your backup. You'll need her if you get into trouble, especially with someone like Augusta. They both have the same agility, so they're best suited for each other."

"I see." I simply stated before we descended the stairs till we were out of the car. It was my car that zoomed towards me. First time I'd be riding this. I smiled. It was so gorgeous, especially at night. I entered the car once the driver stopped. Antonio gave me a little chip, knowing it was for safety purposes. I reached to take it.

"Open your mouth." He stated and I did as he told me before he inserted the device on my teeth. I got comfortable as I shut my mouth. He was staring at me much more this night than every other day. His thumb lingered on my lips, causing me to give him a little smile. He brushed my lower lip a little before letting go. After shutting the door, he began to utter something to Leo, probably but I couldn't make out what it was. The window muted his words.

Soon, the driver started the car and drove out the gate. It was literally the first time that I was ever going to leave the mansion without Antonio by my side. It felt so foreign because it'd been years since I went out on my own. So I swallowed trying to calm myself down. I just hoped that everything walked out fine because I was going to meet Derek. The thought of him kept reminding me about the club and I just couldn't help but think, what if he approached me in that manner again? I gripped my purse. One thing I sincerely hoped for was that, he wouldn't have a torture room like Antonio. I didn't want to hear any screams of torture this night.

My phone rang and I looked at the screen to see that it was not a number that I knew. I picked it up and there he was. Derek himself.

"You're on your way aren't you?" He asked. Why did he sound so much like his brother? The same masculine, yet very dark voices. There was only a slight difference.

"Yes," I stated.

"Good." He said then hugged up. I didn't understand what that was about, but I hoped it all ended well.

The driver stopped right in front of the mansion we'd all seen on the internet. It was exactly the way it was. No sign of security. No guard... nothing. Perhaps he had anything close to a CCTV camera? How could someone live like a vampire? The only thing that gave the mansion life was the beautiful light reflecting from the French glasses. I had to admit this mansion was way more beautiful than what I saw online. Literally, everything about it was beautiful. I loved it.

"I'll go in from here," I said and the driver stopped. I opened the door and moved forward to talk to the driver. "You can go back, I'll take it all from here."

"But that's going to be quite dangerous." The driver hid his face with his cap and I wondered why. "The boss strictly ordered me to protect you. I can't risk disobeying his orders." His calmness was perplexing, it sent chills down my spine. He stretched his hand with a locket hanging from it. "He told me to give you this, just in case you get into trouble, tap the button."

I really wanted to ask who he was and why he was hiding his face but I didn't have much time, instead, I hurried into the gate and towards the entrance. I didn't even knock, it was opened straight up, revealing the person behind it. My heart thumped so fast in my chest as I anticipated his presence, but it was a regular girl whose face popped from behind the door.

"Come in." She stated and I entered. "The boss is waiting for you upstairs in his room. You'll meet his assistant so she can escort you." She said and I nodded. From the way she was dressed, I knew she was a maid. I inhaled and exhaled before walking up the stairs and like the maid had said I did meet his assistant. Augusta. She had the same neutral but siren look on her face, signs of a femme fatale.

Without saying anything, she escorted me to his room. I gripped my purse tightly the moment she opened the door. And as I raised my eyes I saw a man standing there. His back turned towards us. In sweats. His figure reminded me so much of Antonio's. One would believe they were twins if they didn't have a closer look. Then he turned. And I was right there, standing face-to-face with Derek Antonio.
