That should be believable enough or at least I hope. I put on my other shoe and sit in the corner farthest from the body and bring my knees up to my chin.
I can't keep doing this it's too much for me to handle, having to live 3 different lives. I can't take it. Dina's right i'll end up hurting everyone in the end. I don't want to do this anymore.
I hear the door rattle before opening up and I pray it's Luca and not another soldier.
"Baby." I hear him say and I look up. "Are you okay?" He grabs my face, wiping away tears I didn't know were there.
"Luke, Riley was here." Nick says pointing at the body. Luca only keeps his eyes on me, it makes me a bit uncomfortable the way he's staring.
"Okay, i'll have Des check the cameras footage."
"Cameras are gone, I think this was her way out though." Nick points to the ceiling.
"I think so too." He says not taking his eyes off me. He pulls me to my feet and leads us out of the room. Messiah is outside the door, the boy looks like he does this on a daily basis. His eyes meet mine and he quickly looks away.

Luca
Back at the mansion everyone is here including the Choi's and their soldiers. I tell everyone to get cleaned up and be ready for a meeting in two hours.
I try to undress but my stitched arm is acting like a bitch. Aubrei sees and helps, I know something shady happened in that room and she doesn't want to talk about it but I have to ask. "Aubrei, what happened in that room?" She avoids eye contact and continues to unbutton my shirt, I grab both of her hands. "Did he..?" She whips her head at me.
"No he didn't."
"Then what happened? I saw this look in your eye, like something broke." She shakes her head and tears are back into her eyes.
"I don't want to talk about it right now." She says barely above a whisper.
"Whatever it is, we'll get through it, okay?" I kiss her forehead and she nods.
After the meeting, I tell Des to meet me in the tech room. "I need you to get some footage from tonight."
"Which floor?"
"Not floor, the room I told Aubrei to go in. Riley and another guy was in the same room." I see him tense up. "I just wanna make sure he didn't do anything to her."
"What about Riley?"
"Fuck her, she's not important right now." He types a bunch of keys and the feed pops up.
She's standing on top of a table looking for something, the guy comes out from the other door he says something to her and she gets down. He walks up to her and yanks her closer him, the video goes black after that.
"What the fuck? What happened?" Des asks typing more keys.
Huh? Why did it cut off right there? How did Riley manage to get the footage? And why delete it?
"Fuck! I should've never sent her in there." I run a hand over my face. "I gotta find this Riley girl."
"How? She's like a hitman, only time you see her is when someone needs to be killed."
"Yeah so who was he? She's not the type to kill randoms."
"Maybe he was in the way, or she saw that Aubrei was in trouble." He shrugs his shoulders.
"Why though? It doesn't make any sense."
"I don't know, woman supporting woman shit, I don't know." He scratches the back of his head.
"Do you think they know each other?"
"Who and why?"
"Aubrei and Riley. She's hiding something from me and i'm not talking about what happened tonight. She's just been secretive since she came back."
"You're overthinking this, you need to chill."
"Maybe." I say and Oliver comes in with a stupid grin on his face.
"Finally you got to know what a bullet feels like." Oliver says and I roll my eyes.
Two years ago someone tried to break into our home, long story short the intruder ended up getting shot and the intruder was Oliver.
"Anyways i'm going to bed."
