Isabella's POV-
His body drops down to the floor. Blood pooling around him. I know that blood has found a way onto me as well as it masks her clothes. I stare at her blankly. Not knowing how to react. The smirk she wore seconds ago has disappeared and in its place is a solemn expression.

The little girl in her arms scream is muffled by Valentine's hand. Blood covers her little face. When she looks at the girls eyes I try to come forward again only to be grabbed and drug backwards.

"I have business to attend to regarding his wife and others in relation to him so get it cleaned up quickly. Jay I want you to bring the girl home. I'll decide for her later." She demands and nods in Vinny's direction and grabs the rose that was dropped to the ground throwing it on top of the dead man.

She re-holsters her gun and looks at the 2 men. She nods towards the body and the bigger of the 2 grab his body throwing him over his shoulder. The other trails behind after wiping anything that Valentina touched and then grabs the little girls hand. They disappear out the door right after.

Erasing all evidence of her presence.

"Isabella?" I hear a voice behind me.

I slowly look to see Vinny. He looks at me concerned not even looking at the blood on the floor. It's as if he's not even surprised.

"He's dead. She killed him. And the little girl-"I say more tears escaping my eyes.

"It's ok. Your gonna be ok."

"No. No. It's not ok. It's not gonna be ok. Why aren't you surprised or scared or confused or something, anything?"I say trying to understand.

"Because this club isn't innocent Issy. The night shift, Well it's not a safe place to be. Especially when Valentina Ferrari isn't in your favor. This isn't an unusual occurrence." He says back.

"Unusual? She murdered someone. That's usual to you?"

"I've known Valentina for a long time dear. I'm in debt to her and she is the last person you want to owe favors too. I didn't know that back then but I do now. I allow her to use the club for her business. But I do know whatever the reason for his death I can assure you there was a reason." He assures me.

There's silence for a moment before I speak again.

"I think I'm gonna go home for the night."

"Of course. Do you want me to take you?" He asks with concern.

"No I'll be fine." With that I went to the back and grabbed my stuff and left. Walking home in the dark.

The water rushes over my body as I sit on the shower floor. The shock from the events of tonight still evident. I finally stand up and decide to get out. I stand in front of the mirror as I dry off. The blood is no longer shown on my body.

The blood was on her hands.

I get in bed after placing a t shirt on and close my eyes hoping that sleep will bring peace to my thoughts. Another part of me hoping that it doesn't bring nightmares. I don't want to see it again.

See her again.

I jerk awake from a vivid dream of her torturing an innocent. I bolt for the bathroom and throw up in the toilet. I look at the clock to see it's 4am. I sigh lean against the toilet.

I hear a whimper and I see Denali at the door way to the bathroom.

"It's ok boy I'm alright."

He lies down in front of the door as I think back to my gruesome dream.

Her eyes. Her smile as she hurt them. Her skilled movements. There screams. There faces of agony. There bleeding body's...

I heave into the toilet again. When I finish I grab a rag and wipe my mouth. I brush my teeth and go back to my bed Denali on my tail.

I snuggle up to him as I drift back into a dreamless sleep.
