END OF FLASH BACK
" I warned you, not to come along Skylar. I had a feeling that something was definitely going to go wrong, this people are dangerous, they are heartless monsters who cares about money and power putting their family last in everything they do" Cassio said a loud angrily with a hoarse voice. " I won't allow you speak like that, you had better mind how you talk"" I have had enough, dad! I have had enough of always listening to you, being so obedient to all your evil instructions.Cassio interrupted his dad, talking back at him for the first time. His dad was speechless not knowing what to say. " Stop the car, I said stop the car before I burst out your brain!" Cassio shouted at the driver with tears rolling down his cheeks, out of fear the driver had no option but to stop the car.
" What are you about to want to do? " His dad asked without getting any response. Cassio looked at him and opened the door without responding. " Cassio where the hell are you going to?" His dad asked shouting." It's none of your business." Cassio retorted pointing his index finger towards him.He slam the door forcefully walking away as he was crying profusely. He didn't know where he was going. He walked sluggishly as memories of Skylar filled his head, he screamed loudly.
His dad instructed the driver to keep on following him slowly while the other cars at the back followed, they were his Mafia crew and also his body guard.
They were all coming back from the party. Cassio thought he saw a figure lying on the floor but he wasn't sure, as he got nearer, he noticed a girl was lying on the floor looking lifeless.
" Cassio get into this car now, this isn't how I raised you. You have to be strong, she is just a girl. You can get yourself another female best friend" His dad said from the window.Cassio wasn't even listening to anything he was saying. They kept on following Cassio at the back. When his dad saw that if they continued like this nothing was still going to change, he instructed three of his men in the other vehicles to make Cassio unconscious and bring him into the car.
As Cassio got nearer to the figure, he saw Skylar on the floor looking lifeless, he ran to get her but he felt someone hit him on his neck and he fell on the floor. "Good job guys, bring him into the car" Cassio dad said smiling.As they were about to leave, one of the men noticed a girl lying on the floor, he made it known to their boss, which was Cassio's dad. He got out of the car and went towards the girl inspecting her.
"Put her into the boot , she can be useful in the house " He got into the car, poured himself some wine, drinking happily. Skylar was laughing boisterously after they came back from the party, she kept on emphazing on how Cassio was over reacting this morning.She was telling him how she had assured him that nothing was going to happen and here they are save and sound. Cassio laughed at her, begging her to stop making noise as he was exhausted and needed to rest but instead her voice grew louder.
" I hate you stupid " Cassio said laughing at Skylar." I know that and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it" Skylar ran to him, tickled him and ran off again.Cassio who was exhausted just sat on the chair with his eyes closed " Let go out later to get pizza, bills on you though " Skylar said walking towards him, patting his head, only Skylar does it well.
" Fine we would go later, for now I want to sleep if you don't mind ma'am " Cassio said Walking to lie on his bed. "Okay let sleep then" Skylar said jumping on Cassio bed before laying down beside him. His eyes were closed, she held his nose, forcing him to open his eyes because he wasn't able to breathe properly. " You naughty girl, do you want to kill me, just sleep" Cassio said to her facing the other side of the room. " You are a pain in my ass" he murmured inaudibly, but Skylar heard him.She demanded that he repeated what he said but he didn't, she kept on disturbing him until she was tired. After few minutes, she was asleep, Cassio who wasn't able to sleep yet turned to look at her, she was fast asleep.
He got a coloured marker and wrote " You are a pain in my ass" on her fore head, he laughed at what he had just done, he couldn't wait to see her reaction when she wakes up.
He lay down on the bed gently looking at her until he fell asleep.
" Cassioooooooooooooooo" Skylar screamed when she woke up and found what he had done.Immediately Cassio was awaken by the noise, he jump out of his bed looking confused, then he saw Skylar looking angrily at him.
He remembered what he had done and ran off, she ran to lock the door immediately, taking the keys with her and started pursuing him. She caught him and he tried to escape but unfortunately for him he hit his head on the table close to the bed.
" Cassio, Cassio, Cassio" his dad called him.
Everything became blur, he couldn't see, but after some minute he was beginning to see clearly. The first person he saw was his dad, then he looked round looking for Skylar,but he couldn't find her.
" Where is Skylar dad" he asked, looking so weak. His dad was confused. Has he forgotten what happened last night or has he lost his memory he thought." Skylar? You don't remember what happened last night? " His dad asked him patting him on his head gently.
" I do, Skylar and I were playing in my room when I hit my head on the table and lost consciousness" He said touching the spot where he had hit his head but he couldn't feel any pain."Stop touching my head dad, only Skylar does that well. You are hurting me" He said to his dad who immediately removed his hand from his hair, staring out at Cassio.
He told one of his men to get a doctor urgently.
The doctor came urgently as he knew the consequences if he delay for one minute, he will have to deal with Cassio's dad.Cassio dad was releived immediately the doctor entered, he needed an immediate check up for his son. Cassio tried to leave immediately the doctor entered, he told his dad he was fine and didn't need a doctor but his dad insisted.
" What is the last thing you remember about Skylar? " The doctor asked him, holding a jotter to jot down, while he sat beside Cassio consciously, trying his possible best not to say or do anything to provoke Cassio or his dad. "Just go, I told you I am fine" Cassio said getting up to leave, his dad ordered five of his men to hold him down immediately. "What's the meaning of all this, why can't you just let me be, I have had enough of you, your men, your whole Mafia crazy stuff you murderer" Cassio shouted angrily as hot tears rolled down his cheeks.
He had remembered what happened yesterday, the scene before he hit his head was only a dream he was having while he was still unconscious before he was interrupted by his father.
He wished, he wasn't able to wake up, he should have just remained with Skylar in his dream.
Cassio got up to leave again but was held back by his dad men out of annoyance he punched of them on his face and it resorted to a fight, his dad didn't ask them to stop, instead he stood there watching them like he was hoping for something to happen. He saw a gun on the floor, he picked it up immediately and shot three of the men while the other two tried to run but he still shot them. The doctor had hid himself under the bed when the fight began. Then he turned to look at his dad with rage, hatered, anger, his fist shaking as he tried to control himself, his dad stood there looking at him with his two hands inside his pocket. Cassio threw the gun on the floor and left, he had become hard hearted to anything and anyone, unlike before the only person that calms his nerve was Skylar and now she is dead, not just dead she was murdered. The only person he loved and cared for was murdered. Now nothing can stop him from killing anybody that get in his way or even bother him, he j
"Are you feeling better today? " Ma'am Benita asked sitting on the egde of the bed, running her hand through Bianca's hair gently. " I have questions to ask, if you don't mind answering me because everything seems confusing " Bianca said looking at the ceiling. Ma'am Benita looked at her, smiling again. " I know you have questions dear and I am going to honestly answer all your questions. Firstly you were brought in here three days ago by our boss, the leader of the most dangerous Mafia in Italy they are called the Red Dragons. I don't mean to scare you though" She said and the smile on her face vanished. The name kept on ringing bells in her head, never had she thought that she will end up in the house of the Red Dragons, her father's greatest enemy. " You were left to die after, we found out that you were bleeding internally but I saved you" Ma'am Benita continued. " Okay ma'am , thanks for saving me. I really appreciate but can I go now? " She asked knowing that she might
By the time Bianca and the other maids were done with the clean up it was already daybreak. Bianca and elvis had been talking all through and now they left together. Bianca noticed that Elivis never said anything about ma'am Benita which she wanted, she was curious to know why she was being treated differently from other maids and what made her so special to ma'am Benita. While they were leaving she took up the courage to ask Elivis. " How about ma'am Benita? She is the only person you didn't talk off" Bianca said as she turned to look at me and shaked her head. " You will find out yourself, all I can is that you should enjoy the treatment you are receiving now" Elvis said and increased her pace, making Bianca to also increase her's. Immediately ma'am Lauretta saw Bianca, she came to give her a tight hug, leaving her two hands on Bianca's buttocks. Elvis give her a shreak before leaving the kitchen, Bianca noticed that ma'am Benita with some other maids were preparing breakf
Ma'am Benita was surprised when she saw Bianca running back towards her with tears on her cheek. She left what she was doing immediately and ran to meet Bianca, when Bianca finally got to her, she couldn't talk instead she kept on crying . Although ma'am Benita knew what must have happened, she wanted to hear it from the horse's mouth. "I..I..I hm" Bianca wasn't able to speak because she was still in shock, she couldn't believe she watched her colleague get raped and was almost raped herself. Ma'am Benita thought it would be wise if they go to the room, she held Bianca's hand while the walked slowly to the room. Some maids who were not doing anything at that moment were in the room discussing but she sent them out and they left immediately. "Bianca, what's wrong? Talk to me" Ma'am Benita said to Bianca, who was resting her head on ma'am Benita shoulder. Ma'am Benita kept on patting her back gently assuring her that everything was going to be fine, and it was helping because B
Bianca had run to hid in the store, she didn't even know where the others went because of the way in which they scattered while running for their dear lives. For some minutes, the whole place was calm again and no further noise were heard. She turned the door knob slowly, opening it to see if the others had come out from their different hiding spot but she didn't see anyone so she closed the door and remained back. She rested her back on the door though she was restless and afraid of what might be going on or what will even happen next. She wrapped her arms around herself and left the door, walking round and round on the same spot, by now tears were close to dropping but she was resisting. Bianca was still wondering what was happening when a flash question pop into her head, the tears she had been holding unexpectedly began to drop. She began to hear footsteps and ran back to hid behind a large cupboard which was ever to help her frim being seen. "Oh, has Cassio and his father
Bianca kept on calling on the guards to change her cell, but they shouted at her and threatened to kill her if she doesn't keep her mouth shut. Out of fear bianca restrained from shouting, instead she took a step back again this time biting her lips, she moved slowly and sat in one corner of the floor, her eyes had become moist but she tried as much as she could to fight the tears which was close to dropping. "Why does my life sucks" She whispered and hot tears dropped on her cheek, she tried to cleaned it off immediately but more kept on dropping and all her efforts to wipe them in order to stop crying, was futile. She turned to look at the man who had being quiet since he had been there. From the look of things, he had been in here for long as his body was so dirty. One thing Bianca hoped for was to be release soon. When she was tired of crying she began to sniff loudly, mumbling some inaudible words. " Can you stop ugh? You are disturbing my peace please. No matter how you c
" Where did they take you to?" Bianca asked him but he didn't give her any reply and Bianca didn't bother to asked him again because, it seemed like he doesn't even want to talk to her but she was only trying to make the place more lively. Bianca didn't even know when night came because the whole place was dark, but when she began to feel cold and she noticed that everywhere was quite she knew that it was night already. Some people were already fast asleep and were snoring loudly which infuriated Bianca who couldn't sleep because of the blood suckers called mosquitoes hovering around her, making some bugging noise in her ear, while some of them were biting her. Sadly there was nothing like blanket in there so she could cover herself so she kept on clapping her hands, slapping her self and scratching her body all because of the horrible mosquitoes. " This place is hell" She whispered and tears began to drop from her eyes rolling down to her ear. She tried to know if Thomas was also sle
TWO WEEKS LATER**********************"You, come out" Cassio pointed at a middle aged man with tattoo all over his body, kneeling before Cassio, his dad and cousins. All the prisoners, including Bianca was kneeling on the floor with their hands to tied to their back as they were selected to be sold to human traffickers. Cassio picked them one after the other, some were sent back to the prison while some were to work in the mansion. It finally got to Bianca turn and she asked to lift up her head which she did slowly and the first person her eyes met with was Cassio's cousin who gave her a mischievous smile. Cassio wasn't able to recognize Bianca, he selected her as part of the people to be sold. Bianca heart began to beat fast and she became scared. "It is better to remain here than to be sold out" She thought. Bianca has heard of girls who were being trafficked, majority were use as prostitute, she would rather die than to be used as a prostitute. She was about to beg Cassio when she
