Chapter Nineteen
Ivana
I can’t fucking believe this day is here.
Ever since everything went down with Phillipe, and it became so clear that he was never going to want me and he was not the man I thought, I have been waiting for this. Waiting for revenge. And today’s the day.
I reach behind me to tie the halter dress at the back of my neck and look at myself in the mirror.
Galina and I have pulled out all the stops for tonight. Tonight is the night we celebrate the Clans going down and we could become the queens we were always meant to be.
My dress is long, with silver sparkles that remind me of diamonds. I have worked so hard to make sure that my body is back in shape after having a baby, and I have done more than that. I like it better than I ever did before. My body is on point, my heels are high, and I don’t even look like myself anymore.
In order for Galina and I to get into this event, we had to disguise ourselves in some way. If someone paid really close attention, I guess they could still figure out who we really are. But, let’s be honest, who would believe the Badescu sisters would show up blatantly at one of the planned Clan events?
Fucking nobody.
And the French Mafia clan that we hooked up with, they provided us with more than just one bomb and bomb expert. This is pretty much foolproof. In the end, they’re going to help us take over the world after this.
First, it’s the United States and Romania, next is the entirety of Europe. It’s going to be ours. The three of us will have all the men, money, fame, and power that we want.
I comb through my straight, dark red hair. Dyed that way so I looked different. And I have extensions that make it go all the way past my ass. I look glamorous.
Galina went for the opposite. Something even more drastic. She chopped most of her hair off. She has a short pixie cut, bleach blonde. Which is crazy to see it that way.
Her dress is just skimpy. Tight to the body and wrapped around her. It shows just how model skinny she is. Until recently I have always been a little bit jealous of her. But tonight, I feel fucking on point. I’m just as good she is.
I glance at the expensive bottle of champagne that we have sitting on the bar. It’s waiting for us to celebrate after we blow the heads off of all the Clan members. See, we are in the hotel just right down the road. We’ll be able to see the explosion from here. We’ll be able to hear it. Just out of reach of the range of the bombs. So, we will know when it’s time to clean the glasses together and say hello to our future together. And make sure Elena is here to do that with us too.
I can’t believe I found a soul sister for once. Galina is my biological sister, and she will always hold a place in my heart as that, but Galina and I have never quite seen eye-to-eye on everything. She doesn’t have the heart that I do, but Elena, she’s a hard-core bitch, but she has a heart too. And I’m so glad we get to be a threesome.
We’re going to be fucking unstoppable.
We get in a cab, and it takes us from the hotel straight to the event. We can hear the music blasting from outside, and I wonder how many city ordinances are being broken here they’re going to have to pay for tomorrow morning. Only, there will be no one to pay.
The Clans only do things big. But I think my sister and I can do things bigger.
I have a surprise for Galina when this is all said and done. I was able to find an old picture of our father, when he was younger and still the head of the Badescu Clan. He looks so fucking regal in it. I’m going to pull it out for a glass of champagne, and he is going to see his daughters succeed tonight.
Finally.
I immediately spot Elena in the crowd, and I don’t go up to her just yet. I hang back a little and see how she looks almost sad. She is eyeing Luca Ungur from across the room.
These Clan marriages, from what I can tell, they don’t work out very well. Some of them are able to come to a good agreement so that both parties can be content behind closed doors. Some can handle living that kind of double life. But I doubt Elena is that kind of woman. She can’t handle being trapped, and that’s why we get along so well. In a few ways, I’m so glad things didn’t work with Philippe. I would’ve been just as trapped.
But this seems like Elena’s heart might have got in some big fucking trouble here. Maybe she’s accidentally got her heart tangled up in this with Luca, or at least has a crush on the guy. And he’s not a good guy to feel that for. None of the Clan men are.
I finally approach her, kissing her on each cheek and giving a hug.
“I see you and Luca aren’t together. Trouble in paradise?”
She scoffs, taking a sip from her glass of champagne. “Yeah, I guess you could say that. Not that it was ever fucking paradise. He just, couldn’t handle my independence. I guess he thought even though we were in this for some mutual agreement to take down the Clans that he would get me to be the first perfect fucking Romanian wife. Barefoot, pregnant, doing everything he says when he wants.”
Elena rolls her eyes and takes a big swig of the champagne. She needs something stronger than that, but I doubt there’s anything like that hanging around here.
Wouldn’t want anyone to lose her head.
Haha. If only they knew.
