Page 32 of Fortress of the King

He has quite a few properties around the city, he could be at any one of them.

A townhouse he holds for parties and super social events.

A compound, where I suspect he does most of his plotting and dirty work, and a place out in the country that is so private that I don’t even know where it is.

He rarely ever goes there, so they say.

The only thing that interests me next is getting into his apartment.

It’s time to let Angelo get me alone, when he does that, his guard may slip a little. Each second that ticks by is another I won’t get back. And I won’t let my sister down, I won’t let them have her.

I need to take back control.

I know that if I get caught or if Angelo even gets wind that I’m trying to extract information, it’ll be met with a swift hand.

I can’t let that happen.

I need to put my game face on now more than ever.

And that means I have to let Angelo seduce me.

My pulse quickens, and I no longer fear the dread now I just fear failure.

I need to make it a good show, and make him believe every second of it. He likes the chase…. and in this game of cat and mouse, I will surrender.

If Angelo Medici wants me, he’s going to have to fucking work for it.
