Agent 64

Nora P.O.V

The red silk gilded on my legs as I walked forward with an air of confidence surrounding me . Light shone from above and with my stride each of their attention drifted towards me . Their wandering expressions made me smirk from inside , some had envy in their eyes and most of them were curious .

Time to charm some pants off.

A seductive smile spread over my lips with the promise of wickedness as I watched the men there fall under my spell even though they had their hand around another female.

What a pig!

If I ever have to describe men and women then I would say men are like moths , gravitated towards fire even though they know it can burn them and women are like roses , beautiful but have thrones . Hurt her, you will not know what has stuck you.

They may be weak from the heart but not from the brain.

My smile dropped as soon as I entered the hall . Time for some actions. I took my mask from the table near the door and wore it like the others in the party. The golden colour mask had a long red feather on its side, it was covering half of my face up to my nose making it easy to hide my face. Lifting the wine glass from the tray as the waiter passed by I took a sip of my drink keeping an eye on my surroundings . I winked with a flirtatious smirk on my face at the group of men when I found them looking at me straight for too long. I can not let them get suspicious of me . Finishing the wine I placed the glass on a tray when a server passed by and moved towards the bar. From here I could see everything.

The party was extravagant, from lights to decoration, everything screamed money , just like the people here.Most of them were businessmen, top industrialists and came from well known families of Chicago. It is a shame , behind these glamorous faces lies criminals ,killers, smugglers and traffickers . In the skin of sheep they are the wolves that would not think twice to kill someone. Most of them have ties with one of Chicago's most wanted criminals, the DiFronzo family . The police and justice are putty in their hand. No one says a word if they kill someone , that is how the system works here.

"I am in" . I said it while dabbing my left cheek with a tissue covering my mouth from the watchful eyes . My microphone was my hair clip that was right behind my left ear, designed in a way that no metal detectors can detect it.

"Good . Our sources have confirmed that the diamonds have been transferred to the safe , five hours ago" informing me the call disconnects .

The security tonight is extremely tight. I looked at the well dressed man standing in the corner at the back, scanning the area for any possible threat . He was not the only one ,there were several of them trying to mend with the crowd, trying not to stand out of the crowd , they are as subtle as anyone can be but I have been in the industry for more than ten years . Years of experience makes it easy to find your enemies amongst the thousands.

I was wearing computer vision eye lens that look like plain contact lenses but are thinner ,the same size as my pupils, and were transparent scanners ,designed to gain details of a person within seconds after scanning the person . I cast my eye at him for scanning.

"Name - David Abate

Age -32

Nationality - America

Member - DiFronzo family

Charges- has murder charges, selling illegal weapons,drugs, and many other illegal activities Work-Professional killer.Works as a security of few of the DiFronzo's strip clubs and bars ". The information came immediately in my vision beside the man after the recognition was done that only the person who is wearing the lens can see.

"Hmm". I ordered a drink .

This tight security is not just for the people , tonight they had transferred the treasure of the DiFronzo family in this hall, twelve rearrest blue diamonds that are rectangular in shape which look like sapphire but their net worth is more than billions maybe in trillions . These gems have been in the DiFronzo family for more than forty years. DiFronzo's were once a group of very skilled thieves from Italy that migrated to America. They stole those diamonds that were supposed to be guarded by the government . The government could not retrieve those diamonds back because the government had no proof against them that whether they had stolen those diamonds or not and after searching they came empty handed.

During that time the DiFronzo family had started to create their own roots on the lands of America; they gained so much power that no one dared to cross their path. But some great people said every power comes with enemies,that's what happened when the DiFronzo family grew in America and many other mob families grew as well .They were forced to be shifted to Chicago and since then it became their territory.

After DiFronzo moved to Chicago , the investigation of finding the stolen treasure continued and eventually the case closed. A few years later a skeleton of a man was found in an old abandoned well on the outskirts of the states . The well was dry and was filled with dirt and dried leaves. During the invitation a few burnt letters were found . The letters were examined and those letters were the exchange between the dead man and the head of the DiFronzo family who had given those diamonds to him to hide. He was one of his trusted men From the exchange and other evidence that were later found it seemed like the man had betrayed the family and tried to run away with the diamonds but was killed before he was able to leave the country by DiFronzo. When police comforted the DiFronzo family, they were forced to close the case because of the influence of the family. The stones remain in the family.

For the last two decades their family heirloom has been out of the country due to some series of incidents that happened twenty years back ,one of which was about stealing the heirloom by the man who had been given the responsibility to make a unique safe , specially designed for those twelve rare diamonds. The man who tried to steal was sentenced to jail for twenty years.

No one knew where it was other than Robert Valentine DiFronzo Sr., head of the DiFronzo family and Italian mob . The diamonds are only getting back because Robert Sr. decided to retire and pass the mafia to his eldest son Robert Alessandro DiFronzo, the would be new crime boss of the DiFronzo family and they are auctioning those diamonds to the highest to the highest bidder tonight.

Making it seem like I was adjusting my earring I tapped the stone of my piercing of my inner ear.

"Call Cyber" . The line started ringing , it rang twice ,on third ring he picked up.

" Connected".

At first no one answered. I could only hear the sound of typing .

"Cyber, are you there?"

"Yes . I was working on the location. My computer is showing that the vault is in the centre of the mansion . There are a total of twenty guards outside the room. After every three hours the guards that are stationed outside changes . When the new guard is assigned, there is a security check , the whole process takes three minutes . I can deactivate the scanner inside the room , cut the connection to the central security system and hack the security cameras for three minutes .After three minutes it will again connect to the central system. If you do not get out of the room within three minutes the scanner will sense your presence and the room is going to be filled with poisonous gas within seconds. There will be an alert sent to the enemies".

"That means I have three minutes to enter the room and take those diamonds".

"Yes and the next change is after one hour, from that half an hour later that they are going to bring those diamonds out of the volt " .

"Ok". The line got disconnected . This is going to be one long night .

I was speaking with some women when the lights dimmed , almost too dark. Murmurs started to rise inside the hall when the sound of the door opening stole everyone's attention followed by heavy footsteps. The presence behind me made the hair on my nape stand up . I turned to see the reason behind my body's reaction.

Standing there at the entrance of the hall was a tall figure, light shining behind him like a halo making his brown luscious hair radiant like brown glass. His face was hidden in the veil of darkness inside the room.Just as he took a step into the room the lights brightened back . He was facing the other side. From the side the three piece suit stretched against his muscular body like a second skin ,the dominating aura he was emitting made everyone's attention gravitated towards him . The black mask was covering half of his face, he stood there like a dark prince observing every movement . His presence was enough to make the weaker cower away.

I looked around and then back at the man just when the man turned his face , our eyes met. I recognised him immediately but kept my expression natural. Standing there was none other than the new head of the Italian mob, Robert DiFronzo Jr. Those icy sea green eyes are hard not to recognise.

Damn the family genes are strong.

The two of his younger brothers followed him.

Some great people had said keep your friends close and enemies even closer.

Robert is the oldest son of the DiFronzo family and the most vicious . His father trained him to be the capo of the Italian mafia from the young age of thirteen. There is no deadly work he has not done. From killing the people who were not able to pay them back or betray them to eliminating the evidence from under the nose of the government.

Riccardo, DiFronzo family's third son and would be second -in-commander of the Italian mafia. He is Robert's right hand man and nothing gets passed under his watch . All the foreign business, trading of drugs, illegal weapons, diamonds and many other things were handled by him . The fourth in line was Dante , the family accountant. The only thing that got through his thick head was numbers.

Nicolas Cage DiFronzo was Robert Jr DiFronzo's twin . While the other three were spawned by the devil Nicolas was a saint. He was a professor of one of the most prestigious colleges in Chicago in astrophysics, completed his studies in an ivy league college, and was a student at the top of his class . If he was not teaching then he would spend his time in research. Nic left the family at the young age of eighteen after his stepmother died in an attack. He was supposed to be Robert's right hand man but he chose to leave . Created his own life, far away from this darkness.

Nicolas had not attended any family events for almost half a decade .

Last in the family was Lily , Lilian DiFronzo. She has been kept out of the crime world since the day she was born. She has been shielded from the ugly face of their family business her entire life. Her brothers became more overprotective after Dante's and Lily's mother died.

The kids had different mothers. Robert Jr, Nicolas and Riccardo's mother was Robert Sr. 's first wife who was later found out to be working with the Mexican mafia to bring the Italian mafia down. Sources said when they found out they killed her. After that Robert Sr. married his second wife , Dante and Lily were their children. His second wife passed away in a war between two mobs .

Lilian entered the hall followed by two bodyguards and came to a stop beside her brothers in a sleeveless peach pink gown whose front end was just above her knees and the back was long . Her four inch white heels with embedded crystals giving her five foot four some height. Her luscious dark hair ends just below her breast. She was curvy but did not hide herself, she looked like she belonged here whereas I am hardly able to hide my gloomy mood of wearing this dress. She completely ignored the stares of the men while her brother sent death glares towards them . She moved towards the bar followed by the other two olders. Women flawed upon the three men like they are some male models.

Maybe they could be if there was not a long ass list of crime records and half of Chicago's police were not chasing them.

Not wanting to waste any more time I started walking on the opposite side towards the hallway which leads to the back staircase when someone caught my wrist . I turned to see the devil himself was standing behind me , he was holding my wrist in his grip with a smirk on his face. His cold dead eyes were dancing with wickedness.

"Dance with me".

Before I could open my mouth to reject the lights dimmed further and the music started to play. He pulled towards the dance floor. His hand slid around and moved down, resting just above my lower back . He pulled my body closer until no space left for the wind to pass. One of my hands landed on his broad shoulder and other on his biceps. I looked at him,stunned. His hand lifted mine and placed it around his neck and if possible closer than before until our bodies were one. We started moving with the music. His face inches closer made me turn mine. His hot breath hit the side of my neck.

"You did not tell me your name, beautiful?".

"You didn't ask a girl their name before you drag them to dance with you ?" I sassed back with more attitude. His smile widened. At that moment I want to stab his mouth with my five inch heel, I want to see how good he looks sucking my heel while choking on it.

He jerked me closer and I may have accidentally or not so accidentally stepped on his foot.

"I am sorry". Not sorry at all

He twirled me and then pulled me back in his arms with my back meeting his front . We swayed to the music " My bad . Let me introduce myself. I am Robert DiFronzo and you are". I put my hand on his nape and turned in his arms until I was facing him . I slipped my fingers up in his perfectly styled hair.

"What are you going to do knowing my name?" I looked at him seductively. I parted my lips like I was turned on by him.

He lifted his hand ,cuffed the side of my jaw and ran his thumb over my parted lower lip "You already know what name you have to scream by the end of the night it's only fair if I know yours".

He will surely scream my name when I bite his dick off. Not even one inch will be left when I am done with him.

Instead of saying that I took his thumb between my lips and gave it a good suck before giving a bite to the pad of his thumb and then let go while keeping eye contact with him the entire time.

I slid my hand and grabbed the front of his collar and pulled him towards me, our noses were almost touching,

"Scream is the last thing you will make me do and as for who I am . You will soon know ". I pushed him away and got lost in the crowd before he could find me.

The ice melted inside the glass as I swirled the glass of my drink slowly while looking out at the busy street of Chicago. The cars drove past us in blur.

"What are you thinking?". I looked to my left , sitting beside me was my younger brother Riccoda, observing me closely .

"Just thinking". I put the glass down.

"About?"

My other brother , Dante groaned and said from the other side"The guy is going to be the new capo of the Italian mafia tonight, what else does he need to think about? ". His head was resting on the back of his seat with his eyes closed. He had been working for three straight nights with very little sleep. His grumpy ass has been giving me a headache since morning.

"Not everyone is like you Dan. Grumpy asshole . I just wish Nick was here". Saying Lily turned to look outside of the window. My grip tightened at the mention of my brother. Nick and I have not seen eye to eye over a decade. He hated this life and wanted nothing to do with it. He cut all his ties from the mafia when he left for college.

He made a choice that day and I made mine. Once you are, you stay in the mafia till the day you die. He was not the only one who wanted out of this life but not everyone is fortunate.He left and my other siblings decided to bear the burden with me when they had the opportunity to leave. If I stepped back from becoming the capo of capos then Chicago will see wars between the mafias like never before .

The Limo came to a sudden halt bringing me out of my train of thoughts . Both the car doors opened as we were about to step out of the car by the bodyguards as they escorted us to the main hall. We put on our masks before the lights shined and the camera started flashing on our faces . Like the same old story . The room was almost dark, we stepped inside the hall when the light turned back to normal. All the eyes turned towards us . Chicago's most well-known people have been invited ,from politicians to businessmen .

My gaze was moving from one person to the other when I saw her. Standing there with a group of women was the black hair woman in a red sleeveless dress that amplified her curves . The dress was hugging her chest tight tight, it flew down her waist like a waterfall. Her mask was covering half of her face. She broke our eye contact and started moving. Something about this woman intrigued me even though there were many other beautiful women. She abandoned her companions and started walking in another direction.

Crawling through the AC ducts was no jock. After I left the party I went to the washroom and then inside one of the stalls after locking the washroom door I took off the dress along with the full body sleeveless shapewear underneath that ends above my knees and hide them inside the toilet tank .Under my flowy dress and shapewear I was wearing black colour one piece full body fit joined pants and top ,a pouch was connected to the belt of my waist that had all the things I required along with some explosives . Just hoping those explosives do not get activated while I will be crawling through the AC ducts, otherwise Fourth of July and New year will be celebrated tonight .

I pulled my hair back in a ponytail and left the stall . There was a knock yet to come.

I opened my bag , pulled out my multi purpose pen and pressed its back . The tip of the pen changed into the tip of the screwdriver. The walls of the women's washroom were covered with metallic square tiles and behind one of those tiles was the old AC ducts that lead directly to the room that has the vault. I began to knock against the metallic squares to check for the tile which had a hollow space behind it .Our men had already done their job on the other side . Half of the catering staff were our people. If anything goes down we have to be prepared for it. We are covering most of the perimeter and our back-up is ready. So far everything is going smoothly.

When I found the metallic tile I began to unbolt the bolts followed by opening the old grill of the AC ducts .I unlocked the door,the hall was deserted , I closed the door but did not lock it , came back , lifted the grill and the tile , placed inside the duct then grabbed the opening of the duct , pulled myself up and climbed inside it. I placed the tile back on the opening and fixed the nut bolt. After fixing the grill I pulled out my bluetooth earphone for my pocket and placed it in my eyes . No sooner had I powered it on than my boss's voice came through it.

"Agent 64 can you hear me?".

" Yes sir. I am inside the AC duct".

" Good . I am going to forward this call to Cyber. He is going to give you the direction ". The line beeped for a second and then it connected to Cyber's.

"Nora, you are in the east direction of the hall and the room is in the centre. Go straight ahead . The path is going divine into two paths. Take the right then go straight ". I followed Cyber's direction, already sweating like a pig in a furnace .

His voice came through the bluetooth earphone again.

"You are one minute away from the location. There is another turn before you reach the vault room". Then he mute the line.

I rolled my eyes and grumbled " Try once to crawl upon five inches of dirt on your hands and knees then tell me why don't you?". After crawling for a few more minutes my bracelet started vibrating , informing me that I am close to the location . After a turn. I saw a sticker wallpaper on the opening of the duct and removed it . I checked the nuts of the metallic tile followed by me clicking the button of my earpiece while already starting to remove the screws . The nuts were fixed to the tiles and only the screws were moveable .

" I have reached the room and so far I am removing the tile".

"Your three minutes will start in five seconds''. I loosened my third and fourth screw.

"Go". I pushed the plate , it fell off on the floor. Luckily the room was sound proof. I climbed out and placed the wallpaper back on its place and subsequently the tile.

"The cameras are in auto mode. You have two minutes and fifty seven seconds before I have to turn back the security system to normal".

I hope everything goes according to the plan.
