“Oh shit!” he exclaimed after checking his pockets for his phone without finding it. He then remembered he had left it on the table in his office before stepping out. He sighed in desperation before shifting to another side of the wall. His gun was held firmly in his hands as he listened for any sound to alert him of the attacker.“One… two… three” He made a mental note, counting as he listened to the footsteps. There were three distinct footsteps, meaning his attackers were three or even more. He looked at the gun in his hand. It contained only five rounds of bullets, meaning he'd have to give each person a bullet each. The footsteps got closer and he braced himself up. He rammed his fists into the first attacker, making him yell out quickly as he staggered backward. The action had been sudden and unexpected, making the attacker's gun fly out of his hands.The second attacker fired a bullet quickly and he ducked, making the bullet hit the wall behind him. The entire up floor was sound
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 47. Attack on Giovanni
Giovanni sat weakly on the floor as he watched his younger brother get shot in the head. He screamed inaudibly as Angelo fell to the ground. Emotions tore through him and he jerked. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he tried to get up from where he had fallen to the ground.Romano inched forward with an evil smirk, his gun still pointed forward. At that instant, someone burst in through the door at the other end. Romano lost his focus for a moment and turned to look at the intruder. It was a female, dressed in a hoodie and face cap. She shot at him and he ducked in surprise. He wasn't expecting her to shoot him. She moved forward while still shooting at him and he continued trying to escape. He hid behind a pillar and reloaded his gun with the last set of bullets he had with him. He listened carefully as the shootings stopped and slowly, he popped his head out of hiding. A bullet flew over his head at that instant and he immediately went back in.“The fuck!” he exclaimed in a low voice.
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 48. Angelo's death.
Cielo heaved a sigh of relief after hearing a response. She could hear the indecision in his tone but that didn't matter to her at all. “Giovanni was attacked and he is laying half dead at the club office. You have to get down here immediately before he crosses to the other side.” She said and heard Giovanni snort behind him. She could hear footsteps at the other side as the consigliere got down from the chair he sat in. He quickly picked up his car keys and gun from the table before putting on his shoes.“Are you serious about what you just said?” he asked as he rushed toward the door, his heart beating faster than normal. He was playing video games on his console before the disturbing news came in. “Why would I call you with his phone to joke about this?” She fired back. “You better rush down here. He is already losing a lot of blood.” She added. “You will find him at the office complex. I'm sure you know how to find your way there.” She said before hanging up.The mortified consi

Cielo opened her door and stepped in, locking it as soon as she got in. She leaned on the door and closed her eyes. Today had been a very long day for her and she was feeling very tired. She walked tiredly to a chair and sat down, closing her eyes to rest. It's been a bad couple of hours so far. Angelo was dead, Giovanni was lying with bullet wounds, and worst of all, Romano survived.She turned on her phone and scrolled through it. Her break had ended and she had been expected back at the institution at least a week ago, but she had failed to turn up. She sighed softly as she dropped the phone on the table. She had spent her break without finding all the information she desired. “Time to take a bath and roll some blunts.” She groaned, getting up from where she sat. She walked inside her bedroom and took off her clothes. She stared at her naked body in the mirror. There was a scratch mark on the spot the man had held her. She muttered curse words under her breath before walking into

Cielo woke up to the loud ringing noise from her phone. She groaned and tossed on the bed before picking up the phone. It was a text message from the institution. They never made calls, only texts. She opened the message, read its contents, and then sighed softly. She had to be at the institution today.She got out of the bed and walked into the bathroom where she took her bath. She walked out some minutes later with a towel tied around her waist before walking into the closet. She creamed herself and changed into a black combat jogger, black t-shirt, and a black jacket. She packed her hair in a bun and used her perfume before walking out of the closet.She picked up her phones and car keys before walking out of the room. She locked the door and walked down the stairs. It was some minutes until nine o'clock on her watch. She still had more than an hour to be at the institution. She looked at her watch and contemplated going to see Giovanni but thought about it. She would have to spend

“You know I can solve this case, right?” Piero argued. His eyebrows curved upwards.“I can clearly see that,” Cielo replied sarcastically, flipping through the pages of the file. “A good agent would have completed this case in a few days. How long has this case gone?” She asked, trying to taunt him. He had always prided himself as the best agent in the institution, over Cielo and the others.“Are you insinuating that I ain't good enough?” he raised an eyebrow, looking threateningly at her. He looked dangerous at that moment, but it didn't scare her. He never did.“I didn't say that. The facts did.” She retorted with a smirk and he looked like he was ready to murder her. They held eye contact for about thirty seconds, with him looking dangerously at her. His black round eyeballs stared deep into her face and she gave a mock smile. “I don't need you on my team. You should fuck off.” he finally spoke out, feeling irritated by her attitude.“Tell that to the director or better still, get

Giovanni led Cielo into the room and she walked carefully inside. The neon light on the reading table was still on, giving the room a beautiful sensual feel. Giovanni walked into the room and sat on the table while Cielo took the only chair there.“The time is late. It ain't safe to be moving about at night, now.” Giovanni stated after checking the time on his wristwatch and she huffed.“Are you concerned for me?” She asked with a sly smile.“No. I just don't want people dying every day,” he replied and she nodded her head slowly.They stayed in silence for some seconds before she walked to the bin and picked up one of the folded pieces of paper. “What is this?” she asked, holding the folded piece I'm front of the light.“Nothing you should be concerned about.” Giovanni retorted sharply. He drew in a sharp breath and added more calmly, “I know you are trying to show that you care, I appreciate that, but I don't need it. I can take care of my shits alone.”Cielo nodded in understandin

Giovanni waved as the car drove out of sight. A little smile tugged at the corner of his lips as he marched back inside. He dropped the bag on the dining table and took out its contents. The bag contained two plastic takeouts containing his favorite food and dropped them on the table. He was a good cook, but since his brother's incident, he had lost the flair to cook a proper meal, and now that he was recovering, he had to avoid everything stressful. He had domestic staff who would come in thrice a week to clean the house and make him a meal, but after the incident with Romano at the clubhouse, he had stopped them from coming to the mansion. He couldn't afford to trust just anyone to be around him anymore.***Cielo got into her car and drove away. She stepped into the car and the car sped away. Some distance away, a car was parked by the roadside. All the lights in the car were turned off. A man sat in the darkness in the car and waited patiently. As soon as Cielo's car drove past, h
