Luca POV

I kept on replaying the scene in my head, trying to remember whether I left any evidence in that house. I mean this lady's expertise almost matched mine. Only that she's part of the other side. The 'good' side.

I've done this a million times in my career and never have I ever got in such a situation...man I almost got busted! I'll have to go to her office....of course the documents must be there. I knew I had to be more careful this time cause it seemed I was dealing with brains here.

6:30 am

The window was closed so I took out my master pin and in five seconds I was done. I slid it up and jumped in.

Barely ten minutes elapsed when I heard my phone vibrate. I knew what they wanted and certainly didn't have the audacity to tell them that I had failed in the mission.

Nevertheless, I picked the call.

I held my breath as soon as Kenne proceeded to ask me of any developments or problems in the mission. " I just need more time Sir," I whispered. " You'll have to be extremely careful and accurate, you know Mamou too well to fail in this, Luca...all the best," Kenne concluded and hang up.

These words hit me tenfold. I knew Mamou too well. He'd go to any extent at any cost to get what he wanted. I also knew he knew me too well... that's why he trusted me for this and all clean jobs he wanted done. Not to mention he has treated me like his own son ever since we met. Honestly I couldn't imagine myself failing him. Not even for my own life.

I was so engrossed in my job that I didn't notice time go by real quick. My concentration was interrupted by what sounded like stiletto footsteps. I knew it was her, and since I didn't find my target I guessed it was time to make it simpler.

Face this pretty little shit, even though I have to admit I was busted. Again.
