89 It can't be...

"Hehe, we're going, we're going..." Reid and Noel said awkwardly while moving sideways while their back are touching the wall. It was such a funny sight, two grown up men are walking like a crab[1] that even Antonette didn't resist the urge to video these two idiots with her phone and send it to their group chat.

Lucian merely lifted his brow at them, suddenly feeling a second hand embarrassment for these two while Aisha knitted her brows at their action.

Seeing Aisha's furrowing her brows, both Reid and Noel thought that the Queen is angry and wanted to end their life once and for all so both of them scramble towards the door while they dragged a sleeping Andrew behind them.

Aisha caught a glimpse of Andrew's face and called, "Stop." No way, it can't be... him, right? I thought he is already dead, Aisha thought to herself as she rose from her seat.

Both Noel and Reid froze in their position, not once daring to look behind them as they hear slow, and soft footsteps coming towards their direction. The closer she is to them, the more they sweat in fear. They are ready to fight for their lives when hear her behind them.

"I know you," they heard her say. "You shouldn't be alive right now."

It's over! We're going to die now! Both of them howled in their hands. Noel and Reid shared a look at each other, both of them gulped down their fears and nodded. They took a deep breath and turn their bodies to face Aisha, they are about to launch an attack when they didn't saw Aisha.

Shït, where is she!? They look around the room before they notice that Aisha was crouched down in front of them, err, rather in front of Andrew.

They had a confused look on their faces before the realization that Aisha wasn't talking to them but to Andrew. However, since when did these two met? And Aisha even said that Andrew shouldn't even be alive right now.

The two looked at their Boss, and saw that he had stood up from his seat, his rigid stance shows his vigilant attitude and was ready to pounce at Aisha any minute now if she dares to do anything dangerous.

Seeing this, both Reid and Noel felt deeply move. Fortunately, their Boss didn't get blinded by Aisha's charm and still cares for them.

Lucian's eyes darken when he saw how close Aisha is to Andrew, especially when Aisha leans down to his face. His jaw clenches, and both of his knuckles almost turned white because of how tight he is gripping it.

He knows that Aisha isn't close to any men aside from Freohr, Alfred, and him. And seeing her great interest in Andrew, jealousy almost eat his well-being.

No fair! He had made advances towards her in the past, but in the end, he didn't even recieve an ounce of her attention. Lucian always thought that if hadn't for that night, and his identity as the Boss of Lumière famiglia, Aisha won't even take a second glance at him.

If only Reid and Noel will know what's running in Lucian's mind, both of them will vomit blood.

Andrew kept his eyes closed this whole time, he isn't sleeping in the first place so naturally he heard what Aisha had said.

Shouldn't be alive...? What does she mean by her remark? Andrew was confused, he was certain that this is the first time he met Aisha. Also, his face and identity isn't known to everyone unlike the rest of the Elites, he always wore a mask to conceal his identity.

"Half of the mafiosi's bodies are already buried in the ground. You will never knew when you will die." Andrew opened his eyes as he spoke.

"But you..." Aisha stare right into Andrew's eyes. "You already died once."

"Why are you insisting that I already died?" Andrew stood up, and so is Aisha, both of them are face to face with Andrew a few inches taller than her, but that didn't stop Andrew to feel intimidated by her.

"Aren't you?" Aisha let out a slow smirk. "You really look like her." Aisha murmurs, and she reached her hand to touch his face.

Andrew shivered involuntarily at the feeling of her cold fingers in his cheek. Seeing this unexpected "intimate" scene before them, Lucian's expression cannot be describe as he took long strides towards Aisha and Andrew, while Antonette was so mad that she didn't realize that she had punched the wall with her fist.

She only realized it when she felt a stinging pain in her knuckle and let out a grimace as she look at hee bleeding hand. She shook her head and look back at them.

"Aisha." Lucian uttered in a dangerous tone, however, his dark blue eyes was staring at Andrew, as if giving him a silent warning.

Andrew saw it and took a step back, avoiding Aisha's hand. Aisha let her hand dropped to her side and rolled her eyes at Lucian.

"What do you mean by I look like her? Who are you reffering to?"

Lucian had wrapped his hands around Aisha's tiny waist, his eyes locked on Andrew, he pursed his lips at him and tighten his hold on her.

So possessive, the five of them thought and almost rolled their eyes at him.

Aisha decided to ignore the big baby behind her, and put all her attention to Andrew. However, the soft caress of Lucian's warm hands in her waist is a bit distracting.

"You look like her, my snake of a friend."

"Who?" Reid furrowed his brows.

"Her sister," Aisha cocked her head to the side. "Nicolette Einsberg."

"Cole!? You know her?" Reid was about to approach her but he was stopped by Lucian's glare.

"Of course," Aisha let out a dark chuckle. "How can I not know her? She was also the one behind all of this."

"That can't be," Andrew shook his head. "My sister died at the same day the Einsberg famiglia was destroyed."

"Oh, but she is not. The truth is she is alive, but I will not make sure if she can live any longer."
