Twin Tormentors By RARE

Chapter 53



Chapter 53
LORENZO POV
Things had not turned out as we had hoped. After calling in Ciello to prove Val’s words, we found out that we had caught the
wrong guy, and that Val was well innocent and had nothing to do with the imposter. Verzi was a bit skeptical at letting the whole
thing just slide, but Ciello had provided us with a few videos of them shagging, of which we clearly had no interest in.
I felt bad after that, especially because they even pledged their loyalty to us. They were literally on their knees with faces down
as they swore to serve us, even their children and their children after them. Getting three generations of loyal servants was
something I didn’t see happening, especially in a moment like that.
The things had gotten a little heated and Verzi had slapped Val a few times, pricking a bit of blood. He was never someone to do
well with backstabbers. And the idea of being betrayed always tipped him off the edge. But my presence had saved Val’s life
because had I not been there, Val would have been six feet underground, or very black ash in the woods. Innocent or not.
After the confrontation, we had sent them to the medicine room where Val was treated and then retreated into our room. But that
didn’t mean we were at ease. We were now even more riled up than we were before because we were working against forces
we underestimated. But I was glad we cleared things between Val before the fucker got his hands on the footage. Else the whole
thing was going to be pinned down on her, which wasn’t going to be good at all. And in all honesty, (This novel will be daily
updtaed at www.noveljar.com) Valerie was the best assistant we could possibly have. Her punctuality, dedication to word, and
consistency were unparalleled. And losing her would be a great loss.
Not only would that set us off the trail, but we would put Ari in more danger.
Verzi was a wretched mess after that. Being helpless and clueless always crippled him. Although he tried to be strong for Ari, he
was crumbling, I could feel it. But I was here, like before. And with me around, I would help him. We were going to find the fucker
and make him rue the day he was born.
LEIGH-ARI
The morning arrived quicker than I had thought. I was drained from crying my eyes out all night. Enzo had left shortly after I
feigned sleep to God knows where, and they never came back until dawn. My mind was all over the place with questions. I
needed to ask Valerie why she resented me so much. I needed to know why. At least I will be at ease after knowing where I went
wrong. I mean you don’t just hate anyone without a reason, right? You got to

have a clear reason why you hate someone, to even want to kill them.
Could it be because of the twins? But I remember vividly when she told me that she doesn’t love them because she knew she
never stood a chance. So if she knew that, then why?
“Ugghhhh!” I called out turning to my back.
Verzi mumbled something in his sleep before pulling me closer to him, his leg settling on top of my body and pinning me to the
bed. I turned to look at him to find deep furrows on his forehead. Even when sleeping, he was just still angry.
I shook my head and turned to my left, where Enzo was sleeping on his front, his handsome face rested on a pillow just next to
mine. He had his left hand clutching mine in a firm grip as if he was afraid I would disappear at any moment.
I looked up at the ceiling and thought hard.
“Go back to sleep,” Enzo mumbled sleepily pulling me out of my daze. I turned to him and smiled,
“I am sleepless,” I whispered, careful not to wake Verzi,
“Are you okay?” He asked in a small voice.
“No.”
“What’s wrong?”.His head tore from the pillow abruptly and stared down at him.
“I just don’t understand why Val would want to hurt me,” (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) I replied and his
features softened. H e chuckled softly and leaned in to kiss my forehead, then plopped himself back on the pillow.
“It’s not her.” He said shocking me for a second,
“But yesterday...”
“Yah! Verzi went to get her at 1 am and we had a little interrogation session. She’s innocent.” H e clarified.
“So that’s where you guys ran off to?” I asked and he nodded.
“Hmmmm. She’s seeing Ciello.”
“What? You are kidding.” I tore from the bed tearing a frustrated groan out of Verzi.

“Shoot.” I slowly leaned back and in return, he turned his back on me, his cold-ass butt cheeks kissing my naked thigh. The boys
made it a point to sleep naked. As for why? That I cannot answer.
“Ciello and Val are dating?” I whisper-yelled. The little witch! How dare she not mention this?
“Yeah. Got to see their videos as they pounded each other. Wasn’t exciting as watching Verzi pummel into you though.” He said
causing redness to taint my cheeks with embarrassment. H e looked up and then chuckled.
I stayed quiet for a good minute still processing what I just heard.
“Where are they now? In Val’s room or Ciello’s? Or they are keeping things low?”
“That I don’t know. And I don’t keep a record of who fucks who in this castle. Not my concern because I have my own
woman...”He bit my shoulder before kissing it gently, tearing a loud ouch out of me.“-right here with me!” He smiled dreamily as
he settled on his pillow and closed his eyes.
“SO FUCKING LOUD!” Vernero angrily erupted from the bed and walked to the dresser where h e yanked his boxers and pulled
them on. I couldn’t help but burst out laughing at his sudden paroxysm of anger. Enzo just chuckled and didn’t bother himself any
further,
“Sorry baby. Come back to bed. I will keep it down okay?” I smoothed out through fits of laughter, and then patted the empty
place where he was sleeping. He stood there for a good minute, contemplating whether he should come back to bed, or leave.
“Please. You need to rest.” I said in a much gentler voice and in response, he took gentle steps and then plopped himself on the
bed and got in the blankets. He went in by snuggling deeper and placed his head on my bare stomach, doing all this without
uttering a single word.
I threaded my fingers through his hair in an attempt to calm him down. Vernero was always raging, every second of the day there
was a storm inside that tornadoed angrily, sending his emotions berserk. And little things just sent him off. And I always made
sure to give him a little bit more attention than I did with Enzo. Not that Enzo was less retarded, but Verzi was a special case. In
my eyes, they were just two little boys that needed to be loved and taken care of, nothing more than that.
“There, there!” I called out gently while I massaged his scalp. He went in by hugging my thighs tightly and in a matter of seconds,
he was out. On my side, Enzo’s soft puffs of breath caressed my left shoulder, as a signal that he was also out.
See what I told you, two little boys.

Later that day, Verzi had revealed that Val was in the medicine room, being taken care of after the “interrogation.” I had gone wild
at the thought that they’d hurt her. But staying mad a t the boys was just a waste of time so instead of being all broody at them, I
went down to the medicine room myself. There I found Ciello who was sitting by a so not-looking-good Valerie. Upon seeing me,
she gave me a sad smile before excusing Ciello.
Ciello made a small bow and then left. I walked further into the room and sat by the bed. (This novel will be daily updtaed at
www.noveljar.com) I didn’t know what to say, especially after the boys did all that to her. When Enzo told me, I thought it was a
peaceful talk, not this. Valerie had angry handprints on her face that were very evident, and there was blood pricked from her
porcelain skin. They looked so painful that my blood froze by just looking at them,
“Hey.” I said softly and took her hand in mine. Her wrist had reddish bruises of chains and I felt even smaller.
“I am sorry,” I said softly looking at her. She smiled and then shook her head.
“Don’t be. You did nothing wrong.” She said and squeezed my hand.
“I didn’t know they’d do this. I just...”
“It’s okay. Really. I am alive, which is what we should be glad about. You know the chances of making it out of that cold place
with my head still attached to my neck and shoulders and my nose still breathing are way too slim. But here I am. Bruises are
nothing.” She said casually, but I could hear that she was hurt.
“I saw the clips. And I thought that, like the boys, I thought it was you.”I informed reclining into the seat.
“Yeah. I would have thought that too had I been in your position. I mean there is a mole inside these walls who wants to kill you.
And then you go ahead by seeing someone sneaking out at midnight and avoiding the cameras. I was a good suspect.” She said
settling on the big pillow behind her.
“I heard you are seeing Ciello. That’s why you’ve been sneaking out.” I thinned my eyes at her and in a sudden; her face was
covered in a cute blush making her so flustered.
“You witch! And you didn’t think of telling me?” I accused with a loud voice,
“We just... we didn’t want the word to get out, you know. Like Ciello and I are the ones who are way too involved with the
bosses. And if we are doing each other, it didn’t look like a good idea to tell anyone. Especially you.” She pointed her finger. I
clutched my chest feigning heartbreak,

“But why? Aren’t we friends?”
“Oh, that we are darling. But you, you so don’t know how to keep a secret. And if I told you, you’d have gone off running to the
bosses already planning my wedding so no thank you, ma’am.” She mentioned sending me over with laughter. She was right
about that one. Somehow the idea of Valerie finding someone (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) , lifted the
burden off my shoulder, the burden I never knew existed. Had it been there all the time?
“So tell me, you love him huh?” I wiggled my eyebrows playfully causing her to blush yet again.
“Well, he is not as hot as the bosses, but he makes me so happy. Like I feel alive with him you know. At the times we’d be
sneaking out glances at each other and I find him staring at me with that look and I just... I mean gaaaaah... He’s so sweet.”
There it was, the sparkle. Cupid’s arrow had struck at the right place.
“Okay girl. You are sparkling.” I mentioned with a huge grin. Like I was so not expecting this.
“I am right?” She smiled happily.
“So tell me, when did you start?” I asked probing for more, because well, a girl is a girl and a girl can’t go without gossip.
“Well, it’s been on for a few months now. Like before we went to Dubai.”
“What? No fucking way. And you kept quiet all this time?”
“Sorry girl. I couldn’t risk my job.” She said,
“So that day at the party, you disappeared for a second and came back looking all flustered and shit. Was it his doing?”
“Yahp. In the bathroom and oh my goodness. Best day ever!” She screamed out loud before slamming a soft pillow on her face. I
doubled up with laughter. I was so happy for her, like really happy for her.
“Gosh, I hate you so much. And you didn’t share the details with me?”
“I couldn’t okay? I just couldn’t.”
We talked for a few more hours, her telling me things I was so sure I never wanted to hear. Knowing that at some point in time,
she wanted and craved the boys’ love kind of didn’t sit well with me. Although I didn’t understand why I was suddenly so
possessive and territorial, I was just relieved that she was off the harem of all the bitches who have been hogging my men. And if
she was out, that meant others were also going to be out. And soon.

But a sudden realization hit me hard in the face. If I was jealous and mad at what had happened between the guys and her, then
it meant one thing, and oh my goodness! I WAS IN LOVE WITH THE CATTANIO TWINS.
