Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 90. Cielo's abduction.
“I have found a way to draw Giovanni out,” Romano informed his new underboss. They were both in Romano's office at a new location provided by the black scorpione.“What way?” his underboss asked, interested in whatever he wanted to say.“This,” Romano replied, handing his phone to him. The underboss stared at the screen before looking at Romano. There was a photo of a woman on the screen. Though it was a bit blurry, he could see her face clearly. What he didn't understand was the relationship between the woman and what he wanted to do.Romano caught the confused look on his underboss's face and laughed. His laugh transitioned into an evil smile as he stared ahead. “That right there is the key. I've been keeping an eye on Giovanni for a few days now. A week or more, I don't know.” he waved his hand and continued. “She is the closest to Giovanni right now. There seem to be lovers or something of that sort,” he explained with a proud smile on his face.“Hmmm.” his underboss replied, equa
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 91.
Giovanni stared at the screen of his phone for over a minute. He had been trying to get through to Cielo for some minutes now and every time, it rang and stopped without an answer. He sighed before returning the phone to his pocket. Maybe she was busy with something.Few hours later, he called her number again. The call rang for some seconds and ended without an answer. He looked at it screen in surprise. He considered it strange that in the y past few hours, she hadn't called back and she was still yet to pick up her calls.“Something is wrong,” he muttered before stepping inside to pick up his car keys. He drove speedily to her house, still trying her number and it still went unanswered. He arrived and jumped out of the car, letting the car engine steam. Her car was still parked in the garage meaning she was home but something felt strange. He took some steps closer to the door when he noticed a small object on the floor. It was a phone. Cielo's phone. He picked it up and stared at
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 92. Operation rescue Cielo
“What do you know about the abduction?” Enzo asked. A bit calm now.Giovanni explained everything that happened since he started ringing Cielo till when he went to her house to find her phone on the floor outside.“If we can't find her soonest, we'll have to wait for his call,” Giovanni added. Enzo looked like he wanted to say something but thought against it. He nodded at him before opening the door of his car. He stopped and turned to face Giovanni again.“Put me on when you find something,” he uttered before getting into his car. He drove off leaving Giovanni standing there. Giovanni shrugged before getting into his car and driving off.***Romano walked into the room where Cielo was held and flickered the light on. She gave her an ugly smile as he watched her seated on the cold floor, curled up in the corner. But there was something missing. Fear.There was no look of fear in her eyes, making him surprised. Rather, she looked daringly at him. She snorted as he walked closer and he
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 93. Enzo's return
Giovanni rushed to his side and kicked the gun further away while Enzo stepped in fully. They had been communicating all this time through the device on their ear. Enzo had told him to do as Romano said while he prepared to take a clean shot.Romano coughed on the floor while Giovanni rushed to unbind Cielo.“Where are the fucking keys?” Giovanni screamed at him and he laughed evilly, annoying Giovanni. Giovanni went down on him, punching him before putting his hands in Romano's pocket where he found the key. He got up and left Romano groaning in pain and rushed to Cielo who looked like she could pass out any time.He unlocked the chains and she fell into his arms in a tight hug. She placed her head on his shoulder as tears dropped from her eyes. She whimpered before wiping her tears with the back of her palm.“It's alright, love. I'm here for you.” Giovanni comforted her while he wrapped his arms around her. The hug lasted for some minutes before they pulled away. Enzo handed his gun
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 94. Getting heated
“Enzo is the son of Matteo Verrilli the late mob boss and he'll be taking over as the head of the family,” Morelli announced and the room went dead silent. Their mouths hung down in shock and he could see the look of surprise on their faces.They soon recovered from the shock and began murmuring among themselves.“What?” Rafael yelled, his eyes burning red in fury. He looked like he could kill anyone at that instant. “What do you mean by that?” he asked, rising from his seat and walking to the front. He gave Enzo a cold stare which he returned. The two men stared at each other coldly before Morelli cleared his throat, making Rafael spare him a glance. “You must surely know Matteo Verrilli. He was a very successful leader and this is his son, Enzo -”“How sure are you? It could be an imposter trying to get into the family.” Rafael interrupted. “I carried out my tests. It is truly a Verrilli blood.” Morelli replied, starting to get irritated by Rafael's bickering.“But you can't do th
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 95. Attack on the institution
The scanner scanned her retina and Cielo stepped inside with the heave of a sigh. She had taken off her bulletproof vest and dropped it with Giovanni. Wearing it inside was going to draw a lot of attention to her and she didn't want that. Especially not at this point.There were few people in the hallway so it was easy for her to walk past them. Not like the other agents really cared. The only person that could have been nose high in her business was Piero and he was dead now.“I have gotten in. On my way to the security room.” She informed both Giovanni and Enzo through the device on her ear. She took a left turn as she got closer to the security room. The security room was always locked but she could bypass that.She got to the door and looked around before taking out a key from her pocket. She fixed it into the lock and turned it and the door gave way. She walked in and looked at the different switches in the room. Most of them looked familiar. She walked to the alarm system and br
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 96. Death threat
Cielo sat on the chair in front of the large table in Giovanni's mini study sorting some files. It was minutes past 10 am in the morning. Giovanni was still in bed. She had woken up some hours earlier, made breakfast, and got to work. Giovanni had woken up to take breakfast with her and returned to the bed after.She paused and looked at a particular document. She opened it and scrolled through its contents before dropping it in shock. She picked it up and stared at it, unable to believe its content before she stormed to the form with the papers in her hand.She walked into the room to see that Giovanni was no longer on the bed. She heard the water rushing in the ensuite so she waited for him to walk out. He walked out some minutes later, saw her standing with her hands folded, and smiled at her.“Hey,” he said with a cheerful smile.“How long have you known about this?” she asked, producing the paper from behind her and thrusting it into his hands. He raised an eyebrow, surprised at
Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths 97. Keeping an eye for family.
Enzo waited patiently in the back seat of the jeep for his prey. His face was covered in a mask, his hair under a cap and he had a big hoodie on. A perfect disguise for a cold late night.Some minutes later the door of the driver's side of the car opened and someone stepped in. He dropped his phone and a file by the space between the two seats and Enzo counted each passing seconds before he attacked. He took out the gun from under his hoodie silently and cocked it, placing it on the side of Gallo's head.Gallo tried to act immediately but he hit him hard on the side of his head with the butt of the gun. “Gallo Esposito. It's really unsafe to be driving around Palermo alone, especially at this period.” Enzo mouthed without a smile. “I heard what happened to the institution. Also heard you've been looking for who did it. Why do you suspect Cielo Verrilli?” he asked and then paused. He observed the visible shift in his demeanor at the mention of Cielo's name.“What? Surprised that I know
