Page 98 of Sienna Rossi: Beyond Shattered Trust

And the fact that Vincenzo wanted to know about the one with this power – did he want to use it as a weapon against us? He’s already taken Aunty Kiara out of commission. That’s a huge loss for us, I say.

“You knew Vincenzo?” I ask out loud. So far, he has spoken the truth, but something about Vincenzo makes me feel he’s leaving something out. He looks at me and shakes his head.

“No. Not really. Not much anyway. I knew his mother,” he answers shortly. He doesn’t want to discuss it. “But he was kept away from everyone.”

“What pack was he from?” I ask.

The man looks between us. “I want to live, and the more I share, the higher the chances he will come for me when he finds out what I’ve told you, and he’ll know I was the one to tell you,” he says.

“The moment we are done talking, I will teleport you to your plane that is ready. A plane whose location only I know. It will take you directly to your destination. Alpha Royce Arden will be awaiting your arrival and will grant you the safety you desire. Rest assured, you are safe,” Ahren promises quietly.

The man looks down. “What have I got to lose… Once I have told you, my debt to her is repaid,” he mutters.

Sienna reaches over, placing her hand over his, and smiles softly. My attention dips to her tits; she’s fucking divine all over. “I can only imagine how much you have been through. We will help. If you like, we could take this conversation elsewhere?” she suggests.

“No… It’s safe here... It’s safe. For now.” He looks irritable. Sienna pats his hand before sitting back again. Her hair is braided back, but a few strands frame her gorgeous face. “L’Ombra Rossa. That was their pack. It’s long gone. Vincenzo’s mother was the Alpha’s daughter.”

We’re getting answers. Even though it’s not what I was hoping for, this is still incredibly useful.

“I haven’t heard of them,” Ahren murmurs. Neither has Dante, and he’s been trying to find a lead on Vincenzo for years.

And here we are with the answers landing straight into our laps. Either it’s good luck or a fucking trap, I answer.

He sought us out. Do you think he’s lying? Sienna asks.

No, I answer truthfully.

Someone sent him to us; that’s what I’m curious about, Ahren adds. And me, of all people. It’s intriguing.

“Alright, I’ve told you all I know; you can look in my mind, find what the man who carries the power to end our kind looks like,” he says, looking at Sienna.

“I do have one more question,” I say quietly. “Do you know how exactly their power is stolen? Is it just by being in his presence, or is there more to it?” There’s got to be a certain way it’s done, and how did Aunty Kiara contract it?

“My father had some notes; I had them, but unfortunately, those were too damaged to read,” the man admits.

Ahren sits forward. “Could you give me the date and exact location of where you took these papers from?” he asks.

“My father’s office, back in Italy…” The man sounds confused by the question that obviously feels irrelevant to him. I know what Ahren’s thinking – he’s going to travel back in time to get the answers we need.

“The exact location and time,” Ahren repeats. The man looks between us and then nods.

“Yeah, I can never forget that day.”

Ahren sits back and nods, taking out a notebook and a fountain pen from his pocket.

“Excellent. Write it down and show my sister the location, the office, and where he kept those papers.”

The man nods. “Sure. How will that help? It’s long gone.”

“You don’t worry about that,” Ahren says lightly with a wink.

“Let’s focus on what we need to do. I want you to think of the man who holds the power of a primordial, alright?” Sienna says softly. I can show Jayce through my mind. Ahren, I’ll project his image to you later.

Sure, Ahren replies.

“Ready?” Sienna asks the man.

He nods, and she begins whispering a spell, reaching over the table and placing two fingers to the man’s forehead, making his head jerk back, and then we’re all in a dark alleyway.
