Fausto

It had been three gut-wrenching days since I have seen or heard from Marguerite. She has been out of town on her work trip, and I was going crazy missing her. Her last words to me made me realize what an asshole I had been. I knew she was hurt by my actions of the past, but I stupidly thought she had gotten over it. How did I not know that she had never gotten over our break-up?

I needed to make it up to her. She didn’t deserve the hurt and pain I caused her. Marguerite was the only woman I have ever loved. That love never stopped and she needed to know this. But I couldn’t just tell her. I had to show her to ensure that she believed me.

While I was researching the job duties of the Senior VP of Basketball operations for a professional team, I realized just how talented my lady was. Nicolo had informed me that she went back to school for her master’s degree, but I had no idea what her job really entailed. I had to admit I was intrigued after attending the game on Sunday.

Once I was satisfied with what I had found, I had an overwhelming need to see Marguerite. I had no idea where she was because she refused to tell me. I had called her every day since she left. We talked, but she was not giving in. As a last resort, I called the one person who knew everything about her work.

“Justin, this is Fausto DeLuca. I need a favor.”

“Umm, hello Mr. DeLuca. How may I be of assistance?”

“I need to know Ms. Devereaux’s itinerary.”

Silence overwhelmed the phone line. I forced myself to be patient, allowing Justin to get his bearings. It had to be an unusual request and no doubt in violation of policy for him to comply. I didn’t give a shit what type of violation it was. He would give me what I needed.

“Sir, I am sorry, but I can’t give out that type of information. I could get in a lot of trouble for doing that.”

“Justin, what could possibly happen to you? What, you’d get fired? Surely, that would be better than someone tying you to a chair, dousing you in honey and allowing fire ants to crawl all over you. I can’t imagine Ms. Devereaux doing such a ruthless thing. But you know who would?”

He audibly gasped letting me know he understood the underlying threat. They didn’t call me the Lord of Darkness for nothing. Usually, I was a nice guy, but when people didn’t give me what I wanted, they would meet my other side.

“I understand, Mr. DeLuca. I would be happy to help, but I really need my job.”

“Don’t worry. If you get fired, you can always come work for me. I need a personal assistant to help me with this technology bullshit.”

“Do you have an email address?”

“No. Here’s what I need you to do. Print out the information I need and then meet me at Ms.
