It’s being three days since my worthless trip to London, I was filling out my form to be the librarian of a private college and I fitted the category so I applied for the position.
I like reading and studying and also I would be surrounded with a room of amazing books reading instead of doing nothing, it was a part-time job though since I hate being a pool girl and I cannot swim.
It was quiet and I get to read free books and probably I might apply for that same thing my parents wanted to to apply and start going to college probably.
I was at the college quietly filling my application, Hunter said he didn’t want me to be alone ever so he strike a deal either his men watches me or when I’m going out I needed to go with a friend, I had to wait till Paisley came back before I could bag this opportunity.
I didn’t like the idea of having 3 bodyguards follow me everywhere I go although I was more popular now I still didn’t want to live my old life.
My parents constantly assigned bodyguards and it makes me sick and since Thiago is out on a mission, Paisley is my only hope.
“Seriously Amirah, why don’t we date instead everyone will forget you’re Hunter’s mistress.” she suggested.
“I guess this is what I get bringing you with me.” I groaned. “Why are you applying to be a boring librarian you should consider being a model.” she suggested. “Nope I like being a boring librarian, I hate the fame I’m gaining for being Hunter’s mistress I just want this it’s peaceful.” I object.
“I have connections, you could be famous like me and besides Hunter doesn’t only have to get a stare from your body he’s being greedy.” she wiggles her brows.
“This is my decision I don’t want to be a model Paisley besides it’s quiet I get to read free books and also I get to control anyone who doesn’t adhere to the rules.” I whispered almost done filling my form, she rolled her eyes picking out her phone and started texting who so ever, she was giggling so I got curious.
“Who’s the dick? ” I arched my brows.
“none of your business get back to filling your form let’s get drinks.” She hissed and I rolled my eyes at her.
Delilah’s Pov
I was in the limo with my dad, he was disappointed picking me up from the airport he couldn’t even look at me, I sat down quiet thinking about how I killed Regina.
I felt thrilled, I don’t have any regrets all I could think was relish on the feeling that bitch was dead and surprisingly I wasn’t caught.
I smirked to myself if only I could kill Amirah that way then my life would be a bliss.
The thrill of recalling Regina’s dead body didn’t bother me at all, I don’t know why people felt guilty it just felt right.
My dad took us home, the home where mom never came back to and the home Paisley choose not to remember.
“I am so disappointed in you.” my father spat the moment we walked in.
“I don’t have time for this father.” I hissed walking past him.
“Do you know what you have done? Your reputation is already going down the drain now that everyone is convinced you slept with Derek Dominiquez and you go all the way to torture an innocent girl.” he said.
“That innocent girl slept with my husband.” I hissed.
“When I told you to make up your mind and either give me children or divorce I didn’t tell you to go crazy and drag the family name you nut, and of all the people you sleep with that Casanova? ” he growled at me.
“Daddy.. ”
“Save your daddy, you my own blood is busy fucking up herself and while my foster daughter is out there making a name for herself.” he hissed in regret.
“You are now praising your little daughter?” I growled.
“I made a mistake, I should have put you up in the orphanage you worthless child you didn’t only managed to get divorced you dragged your reputation to the dust, your mother always hated you and now I know why.” I didn’t know what came over me I picked up a pair of scissors and sliced it at his throat and kept stabbing him till tears run down my cheeks.
The anger died down, I dropped the scissors realizing I killed my own father.
I quickly broke some glass of whiskey and placed it close to him like he was drunk and placed a knife with his finger print and and blood after wearing gloves, I picked up the scissors and left right home to my apartment in fear.
Again I felt thrilled and no pang of guilt seemed to hit me it was just the sweet sensation of their deaths.
I opened the front door of my apartment to see Alec in my apartment, I dropped my purse as the bloody scissors escaped my purse.
“What the fuck are you doing here? ” I asked.
“You’re not even afraid I might write you off after murdering someone, you’re getting better already.” I looked back at him confused.
“You know I killed Regina? ” I asked.
“We were the ones who hid your track after her death, we polished off the finger prints, we blocked the cctv cameras, we hacked the satellites and no one can actually guess it’s you.” he said.
“Who do you mean by we ?” I asked.
“As of now we is me and my father, there is another one but he’s not interested in you, my father is very much interested in you Delilah.” I stepped back a bit shocked.
“You mean Caine Rhett? ” I asked and he nods.
“Do you know the Dominiquez code? “! he asked and I shook my head.
“What’s that ?” I asked.
“It’s a code for the wealthiest overlords of darkness, they have influences and power beyond what you can imagine they have old money and old connections, they can order you’ll be killed in your sleep and it will just happen, you only get lucky when they share you a limited compassion.” he said.
“What does Hunter not giving me children have a code.”
“There were five family names who were called the overlords of darkness, The Dominiquez are the last, they wanted to control their power so there was a tradition or should I say a code, if a heir was to have a daughter he was to send her away with his mother, if he had a son he was to die that same day and the mother was to raise the son till they were old enough.” my eyes widened in shock on wonder Elenora left Hunter and Derek and no wonder Hunter did not want to have kids.
No wonder my father wanted a grandchild I’ll be giving him power but he’s now dead.
“And do you think I’m stupid to fall for this? ” I asked.
“Can you mention any reasonable explanation why he didn’t want to have kids, while he has connections all over the world, why he was always on business trips he was attending to business and he is the family from the overlord of darkness.” I couldn’t believe this, I didn’t even bother to know.
“Why the stupid code? ”
“The families were too powerful and they fear one could use the power for evil of course they do illegal businesses and cover it up with some company as excuse they have their limits, the other families were wiped out because of the code the last heir is Hunter.” I gasped.
“There is only one way of breaking the code though.”
“And what’s that? ”
“Can you do it? ” he asked.
“I’ll do anything for Hunter.”
“Kill Esther Pat, Hunter’s mother if you kill her then you can set Hunter free.
