"What's the problem Luca?" I asked one of my men who was trembling with terror in his eyes. Frustration was evident in my voice but I managed to keep my cool.
"One of our warehouses have been set ablaze. We tried salvaging the situation but a lot had been brought to ruins!" He said still trembling with terror in his eyes.
I was furious but I couldn't show it before my father for he stood just by the door smirking at me.
I took my jacket and walked out the door as I swore in my head to make those bastards pay.

I got to the warehouse that had been burnt down to inspect the scene. It was literally burnt to the ground with a few of my men guarding the place, dead from the explosion. I noticed an inscription among the pile and it belonged to the Berserkers. Those fuckers had the guts to leave me an inscription, it was obvious they wanted me to know whi did it. They were challenging me to a fight. I had already suspected a mole among my men because this warehouse was newly opened and well hidden and not even my father knew about it except for me and few of the boys guarding the place. I resolved to find the mole myself and use him as a warning to the Berserkers.

I got in my car and was about to leave when I got a call from Drew.
"Hey man! Just got to your office to meet your absence. Where you at?"
"I got word that one of our warehouses had been burnt to the group. Went to check it out. I have a feeling we got a mole. We gotta find him" I replied calmly. Drew went quiet for a while and I patiently waited because I knew he had something to say.

"I think I know who it is. Last week I had gone to the warehouse to check the shipment from Italy when I heard Fernando talking in hushed whispers. He was saying something about freedom. I didn't pay much attention to it then but now we gotta question the man" Drew explained calmly.
"Get that fucker to the basement I wanna have a word with him. Also, why did you call me?"
"Oh.. I got the job done. Hazel Micheals. It's in your office".
"Good job Drew" I said and hung up.

I got to my office and some how I was eager to read the background test results.
I quickly opened the envelope and began to read. Hazel Micheals, a 23 year old graduate of Harvard, an orphan with an ordinary life trying to make a living. She shares an apartment with her best friend Adriana Doughlas. She recently broke up with her boyfriend Adrian who cheated on her. I instantly felt anger rush through me. What jerk would cheat on someone like Hazel. Her favorite brand of toothpaste is Colgate and for coffee she likes to have an iced Americano.

"Fuck you Drew" I said with a chuckle as I closed the document. I don't know what it is with this girl but I had resolved to make her mine and I always get what I want.

I was about going home as I was done for the day, when I heard a familiar yet repulsive voice call out my name from behind. It was Bella, one of the whores I usually play around with. She's pretty and sexy but right now I have just one person on my mind. Hazel.

"Nicholai! Nick baby!"
I turned around with one hand in my hair, my face evident of frustration and tiredness as she came up in my face. She had a fake voluptuous body with an over decorated face as her boobs were all over the place and in my face as she came closer.

"Nick baby! How I've missed you. You haven't called me for days. I miss you so much babe" she said as she carressed my face and chest while I stand there numb with my hands in my pocket.
"Busy… I've been busy"
"Oh… so how bout we go back into your office and you make it up to me hmm?"
"Look Bella I'm busy I don't have time for this, let's meet up some other time" I immediately said, somehow I couldn't think of any other thing but Hazel.

"Come on babe…" she leaned even closer, almost like she would kiss me. I suddenly grabbed her by the waist as she moaned softly and I leaned in to whisper to her.
"I could be shredding you to pieces instead of fucking you Bella"
She withdrew with a gasp and immediately let me go as she walked away as fast as she could.

I got to my penthouse, tired and drained. I had my bath as images of Hazel kept flooding my mind. I made a mental note to drop by the coffee shop tomorrow as I needed to see Hazel. Just then my phone rang and I checked the caller id to see it was Drew. Great timing.
"Dude for fucks sake it 1am" I spoke lazily Into the phone.
"Man, we got a much bigger problem than your beauty sleep. Fernando is gone as well as Macho and somehow I think our mole is not just one man Nick"

"Find Macho's wife and kids, same with Fernando. They know not to mess with me. You know what to do"
"That's a problem Nick. I've tried that already and I can neither find Fernando nor Macho's family. I've contacted all our sources yet nothing" Drew sighed defeatedly.

I ran my hand through my hair in anger. In the space of 8 hours I've lost millions of dollars and if I don't take care of the situation I would lose more.
'Why is everything going wrong? I feel like someone is out to get me but they chose the wrong person to mess with because I never back down. Not without a fight' I thought to myself.

The burnt warehouse, now Macho and Fernando. I instantly knew there was trouble.
