Chapter 24: The Service

5 years ago

Antonio Romano's POV

So, we here we were, trying to get inside the most secure location in Budapest, maybe on Earth. And I was ready to die for trying to do it because I was bounded to serve my country.

Damn my father and his influence.

I was breathing hard as it was my first mission. I did not sign up for this but somehow, I was in the middle of the front row to get inside the building.

"Are you ready for this?" My friend and doctor, Charles was asking me. Maybe because my face was so white and pale that he thinks I was ready to die.

"Relax, you have been training your whole life for this," he joked as I was smiling weakly at him.

Only if he knew the truth.

The truth was I never pay any attention to the training. I was merely passing and I can sense that my father wanted me to die young. Heck, I was only 22 years old. I still have dreams that I wanted to achieve and do what I liked the most.

Makeup and hairstyling.

Wedding planning.

All the good stuff.
