[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]
I calmed down my nerves before knowing firmly on the study door.My father was here in the state means he had an important business to deal with either I or the my personal life.I had been a pain in his ass since I entered in my puberty.He trained me to be a step ahead of him but in reality I am miles ahead of him.
"Come in,"Came his deep voice from behind the thick wooden door.
I turned the knob of the door and stepped inside,the first air I inhaled smelled of tobacco and whiskey.
"Hai chiamato il padre."I asked him in the most emotionless tone possible,not even hatred.The man didn't deserve any of my feelings.
"Yes son and its you who have to explain me this,'He threw a file at my direction,his blazing eyes literally wanted to put a hole between by brows but Alas!He couldn't harm a single hair on my body as I am his solo heir,none of his wives other than my mother could provide him a male heir.
I didn't mention earlier that I have three half sisters,each married to other mafia lords around the world.Whereas all his brothers have sons whose eyes are always on my father's throne and my father takes this opportunity to threaten me.He loves to make people dance on his fingertips.
Nevertheless,I picked the file which was the reason my father wished to see me.With curiosity,peeping through my veins,I opened the folder and begun reading the content.
He was indeed right.
It caused crease lines to appear on my forehead.
"So what you have to say on this Stefano?"He arched a brow at me in a challenging way.
"Give me a few hours.I promise I'd bring his head to you before the dawn."I closed the file and placed it back on the table.
"I see you have a great confidence in you my son but may I know how did it happen on thr first place under your nose son."Sarcasm dropped from each word he spoke to me but he had a point.
"I caught the culprit who was giving our secrets to Victor and I promise to bring his head on your feet."I replied.
"No my son.I do not want his head but-"He stopped and took a sip from his whiskey,he was already on the verge of passing out.
I narrowed my eyes on him,what was going inside his monstrous mind?
"Then what father?"I asked.
"I want his sons' heads instead.I want to give him the pain,a slow death more painful and suffering than a real death Stefano.And don't think I am making you punish innocent souls.His sons were the mastermind behind the robbery.Will you do it?"Poured a glass for me and forwarded it in my direction.
He was testing me and the extinct humanity inside me.
"I will father.They cost us a huge fortune and defame in the illegal business.Good night father."I took the glass from him and swallowed all its raw content in a single shot.
"I expect same from you Stefano or I think Marcus is better for this task."He didn't forget to remind me of his plan.
He had in mind to make Marcus,my eldest cousin the next Capo if I fail in any test,he gives me.
I existed the study room and directly headed out of the mansion,followed by Luca and my other men.
"So we are attacking on their estate directly boss?"Luca asked me while I seated on the back of my car.Luca took the passenger seat.
"No Luca we aren't attacking on Victor but his waste bastards."I replied while loading my guns.
"You mean his sons?"He gasped,"What advantage we'd get to kill those pests Sir?"He couldn't stop himself from asking me which I expected from him.
"Father's wish."I replied in two words that was enough to shut his blabbering for some time while I plan my attack.
"Its gonna be fun."Luca smirked.He knew I would never dirty my hands with blood of someone who hasn't harmed me personally so this time also Luca will be the one to slaughter the Niccoli boys.
In no less than twenty minutes,we were standing outside the local bar where those lads were drinking their ass off to celebrate their minor victory.
"Are you ready ?"I asked to particularly no one.
"Yes boss."My men replied in unison and next moment we barged through thr front doors and my men begun firing to warn the crowd,who had nothing to do with the feud.
Screams and frightened yelling were pleasant to my ears but whom my eyes were searching,couldn't be seen anywhere.
Meanwhile Luca caught the manager of the club,whose face was as white as a ghost.
"Where Robin and Rocus Niccoli?"I asked him in dead firm voice.
"In the basement,their private booth."He replied instantly,"Please don't kill the girls down there."He pleaded but I was too far from him to listen his rants.
Luca and two men were ahead of me in a order to protect me from univitable situation.He broke the door in no time.
Niccoli brothers were surrounded by naked body grinding on them.The girls let out a shrill and tried to hide behind the sofas.
"Who the fuck are you?"Rocus blurted in his half conscious state.
"La tua morte,"I stepped forward.
"Stefano!"Both the brothers gasped in surprise,obviously they didn't expect me to hunt them down in a third grade bar.
"I guess you got it right."I smirked.
"Get out of this place as quickly as possible,"Luca said to the girls,who scurried out of the room in next second.
Robin,the elder Niccoli stumbled on his feet to reach me but blocked by Luca.
"You're scared of us Stefano De Niro?"Rocus laughed coming from behind hid brother.
I kept smiling on their stupidity to come near me without any shield.It meant they only deserve to meet their final destination before they collapse their father's empire.
"You made a wrong move by breaking the treaty between our grandfathers that you would never interfere on our territories,Sicily is yours but I think the time has come when we take it back from you mother fuckers."I said.
In response,only their laughed echoed on the empty walls.
"Are you kidding me Stefano De Niro?"Rocus laughed maniacally,"Sicily was always ours now its time our father snatch Milan,Naples and Lombardi."He said.
"Milan,Naples and Lombardi,"I begun to laugh on his childish attempt to challenge me.
"You Niccoli men don't have balls between your legs to even raise your eyes on our territories,"I said to him.
"Yes yes we had stolen your fortune.We must not have balls but aren't born out of a whore like you who was busy humping while we raid your shipments."Rocus laughed and next his scream echoed followed by deadly silence because-
I shot him on the throat.He used derogatory words for my mother.No one has ever dared to drag my mother between wars before not even my father.
Robin,whose was in a state of shock watching his brother die in front of his eyes went pale.
"You..you son of a bi-"
"You dare complete the sentence and you will be laying beside your brother,"I warned him which was enough for him to swallow back his words.
"Tell us where are our weapons?"Luca asked him..
"I don't know."He replied.
"Luca."I singalled Luca to start his slow process of torturing a human soul.
Luca nodded his head and then tied him on the chair.
"I'll ask for one more time Rocus,tell me where are my weapons?"I asked him sitting across him while Luca took out a knife from his pocket.
"No I won't tell you because my father has hidden it somewhere I and my brother have no idea."He denied to tell.
"Luca,"
And next Luca cut off his dick.Robin's ear defeaning screams collided with the walls.
"Now tell us Niccoli or next are your balls."I said.
"I don't know.I swear."He shouted yelping in pain.
"Luca"
"No please I swear my father knows everything.You must go for him but spare me."He begged for his life.
"I am giving you last chance,you last Niccoli pup,"I said loading my gun.
"Perhaps in the secret basement chamber of my father's old mansion."He finally spilled.
"That's like a good boy."I smiled.I knew what I had to do next.
"Let's go Luca.We had a long day."I said to Luca and turned away to leave the stinking place.
"Boss dobbiamo prendere il dono di tuo padre?"Luca asked.
"As you wish Luca."I said.Saying this,I existed the club,I could hear Robin's screams.
I had a very long and exhausting day.I hate to admit but I needed some fresh air as I couldn't go back to my place,my father's presence is sickening.So I decided to takea stroll on the deserted road.The cold breeze comforted my throbbing headache.When suddenly I saw a faminine silhouette in a dark allay.
It didn't take long to realise that there were some men chasing her,my curious steps took closer to street,where I saw a girl,merely a girl in fact as she was looking like a walking skelton.She had bloody bruises on her body and ragged clothes.Her dark brown hairs covering her face but I had no time to examine her features as the bulky men behind her now leaning over her.
Suddenly I felt a rush to save her.
Those beautiful bluest eyes I have ever seen for a girl totally spoiled and battered.She collapsed on my chest,certainly she was drained out of energy.
Those bulky pigs halted as their eyes fell upon me but due to leeward light falling on my back,they couldn't recognize,who I was and its good for me.I hate
limelight as much as I love seeing fear in timid hearts for me."Give her back to us,she us ours to feast tonight.You can join us too."One of them blurted in his fumbling voice panting like dogs.
"Correre,"I warned them,I keep violence as last weapon.
"I said give her to us or we'll feed you to hungry dogs young man."They stepped forward,I looked down at her slowly fainting body.
I gently laid her on the sidepath and then turned my whole attention on those fuckers who dared to cross my path by misfortune.
"You're gonna fight with us hahaha.Come on boy we would love to grind your bones to powder."One of them said and other laughed.By their accent it's clear that they were Sicilian.
Were they just some hooligans or men of Victor.Well I did want to give clear message to Victor Niccoli,two headless bodies of his sons and some bruised faces.
I like the idea.
One of them moved forward to give me a blow but he was late as next moment he stumbled on the pebbled road with bleeding face.
Soon one by one I showed them their place.They were whimpering in pain in less than ten minutes,I only with bleeding knuckles.
"Tell Victor that I am coming for him next."I whispered to the first man and gave a last blow to his balls,"Now you won't ever get a chance to fuck even a rock."I said turning to the tiny female.
I bent down on my knees to examine her.Who was she and what made her run in a dangerous night where anything might happen to her.By looking at her appearance One could say she had not been in a better condition for several days but something,something intense pulled me to her when she could hardly recognized.
"Who are yo-you?"She asked in a barely audible voice yet tenderness dropped from her broken words.
"Sei sicuro con me Principessa."I tugged her damp hairs from her face to get a closer look on her and it was the moment she lost her consciousness into my arms.
Now I had no other choice then to take her with me to the estate.
Three Years Later...They were sleeping peacefully in each other's arms,the most comforting place for them when they retired from the chaos of everyday life and when they got a little time for each other since Stefano took over the position of Italian Mafia boss and declared his monopoly over all types of mafia business.No one dared to go against him because defying him means inviting the deathbut the most ruthless man was slave to his beloved wife and children's wish.Destiny's sleep was broken by the piercing sun rays which were falling on her face . She tried to stretch her arms but couldn't as he was caging her into his tight grip.She smiled looking on her handsome husband's innocent face .His messy hairs were giving him a hot look.She could watch him sleeping for her whole life but she needed to get up because it was the day when all family members spend the afternoon together.Adam and his wife Sofia also used to join them as they were running their own steel company in Italy
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]I waited behind the rusty barrels of pungent smelling chemicals for more than an hour waiting for the bastard to appear,my men had their guns aimed in every direction in case we face attack from our enemy."Venite Cassius che hai ratto."I cursed under my breath,the humidity inside a damp area,I was sweating and on the verge of loosing my patience but I knew it wasn't the time to think about my bodily discomfort."We are going in the other room."I whispered to the men."We don't think it's a wise idea Capo,look upstairs.His men are marching with machine guns,our one wrong move can sabotage our whole plan."Marcus replied who was leading the gang.I sighed in frustration.I had no choice but to act on his suggestion as he had faced such attacks before.Ten minutes later,Alessandro's voice floated into my ear through the bluetooth device."My part of task is done brother.Don't worry most of his men won't attack on us so move ahead.""Marcus step one is successful no
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]"Are you sure Adam that he is hiding in the closed chemical factory?"I asked Adam for the hundredth time as its been three days we searched for Cassius like hounds in the wilds but all the possible places were clean of his presence means he chose a least suspected place."Yes brother I have kept a close tab around this area without telling you because I wanted to be sure first and last night my spy saw his men entering inside the old factory with daily essentials it clearly means they are hiding there."Adam replied."Hmm he is brilliant in choosing a hiding place but this time he played his best.We can't directly attack on the factory as it is located near the residential area so what is the plan Alessandro?"I looked over Alessandro whose eyes were darted on his laptop screen."Yes brother I was actually analyzing the map of factory and I found a secret passenge through which we can easily enter inside without coming across his first line security circle."He
[ DESTINY CARTER ]I woke up feeling light after crying last night.Stefano was there for me,he comforted me without asking the reason of my breakdown and I felt pampered.Stretching my tensed muscles and climbed out of the bed.Stefano was nowhere to be seen in the room,meant either he used the other room or he might leave at mod night,well were less chances of the latter.Instead of going inside the bathroom,I padded out of the room to look for Stefano,well it was early six in the morning.I found him sleeping on the sofa, his body sprawled.I tiptoes to have a look at him as it was about sunrise and Stefano,still sleeping.His face had crease lines even in deep sleep,he seemed in tension.I don't know what came into my mind,I jerked his shoulder to wake him up,the solo motive was to ask him to sleep comfortably on the bed."Hey what happened?"He tiredly opened his heavy eyelids immediately,creased appeared on his forehead."Good morning Stefano and I am absolutely fine."I played with
[ DESTINY CARTER ]"Come Maisie it's the time,"I spoke hardly as my throat constricted looking at a devastated Maisie sitting on the bench in a corner of the cemetery.She turned like a stone statue,after her outburst at the hospital,she stopped crying and didn't say a word to anyone. Today is the funeral of Luca.Stefano made sure that only the closest relatives of Luca's side attend the funeral to ensure the safety of us and specially Maisie.I sighed in dejection as she didn't flinch so I decided to shake her little."Maisie come let's say a final good bye to Luca."I shook her shoulder gently thus she blinked her eyes to glance at me with no emotion."I can't say good bye to him Destiny.He is alive with me here,"She placed her hand on the left side of her chest,"You should go and join others to ensure his final resting.I am glad finally he won't be bothered by anyone.We can spend as much time as we want.Isn't it the brighter side of his departure from this mortal world?"She sm
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]I kept staring at her sleeping figure.Her serene face had a sheer peace on her angelic face.My fingers ached to trace her cheeks and pointed nose.Her forehead creased,means she had something terrible in her sleep.How could I face her once she will be alright?I made a promise to her and Luca's dead soul to avenge and I won't sit quite until I fullfil my promise.It was four am in the morning yet the sleep was far away from my eyes.Day after tomorrow is the funeral,I want it the most memorable day for her because Cassius is going to meet his doom as well.I want to make our relationship official to the world once I eliminate my last enemy from the earth.My phone's vibration caught my attention.I kissed her forehead and went to the living room so her sleep wouldn't get disturb.It was from Adam.I frowned in worry,it was too early for him to call me unless it's very important.I swiped the green button and held the phone to my ear,"Hello Adam why are you calling me at
