Jericho’s POV
Alex and I left the gym house after I’d received a call from Alberto. Alex is my PA while Alberto is one of my henchmen whom I’d assigned different sections to root out those morons who either snitched on or betrayed the mafia. I had just got the Intel that one of such bloody rats had been nabbed in the United States. I instructed Alberto to handle him with the rest of my men while I came to finish. Clems is one of the traitors I’d been searching for hook, line and sinker but I kept getting bloody excuses from Alberto and finally for his sake he’d made himself useful. Well maybe some things indeed happen at the right time. I'd get some of my men to get the private jet ready and in less than an hour, everything was in place. I was fully dressed in my usual all black attire and same goes with Alex. “Aren’t we informing grande capo about this?” Alex inquired as we were making our way to the airplane, referring to my father. Before we got there one of the boys who were stationed around ran forward to open the door, then bowed as we walked in. “No, this is something I can handle myself. I don’t want the fucker giving me stupid orders.” I spat as we settled in. Though I never really followed my dad’s orders, I'm so sick of hearing them. Fuck sakes, I’m the fucking boss of the Italian mafia. We arrived in the US at 6pm and went straight to my trap house here in the Us. Yeah I’ve different trap house sited in countries around the world where I punishes my offenders who tries to hide in other countries but gets caught—- that means you can’t hide from me, I’ve got eyes almost everywhere.I was well pleased with what I saw. The bastard was completely battered, his face and body was covered in blood, deep cuts and bruises. Water was dripping from his hair, it seemed like he was waterboarded to sleep. “Good job boys” I nodded at all five boys in the room. “Capo” they all bowed. “Now Wake the fucker up” I commanded. Isaac nodded and poured ice on him, making the bastard jolts awake, almost falling off the chair but was restricted by the chains tying him down. The moment his eyes met mine, He shivered and I felt his fear but he played cocky when I started questioning him. “Why did you ever think you could steal from me and hide?” I asked quietly squatting before him while leering into his eyes. “You are going to kill me and we know that so let’s drop the long talks, we aren’t women. Go ahead and kill me already” he growled weakly and his boldness got me riled up. You don’t die brave with me, you die at my mercy. Smirking at the fucker, I first punched him square on the jaw. Two of his teeth fell out and he groaned in pain. I took out a Jack knife from the back of my pocket, I spent a moment staring at his face for reaction but the bastard still had his brave mask on. Let’s see how he can still maintain that by the time I’m done with him. Teasing him, I placed the tip of the knife at his neck as if to stab him but I didn’t, I brought it to his stomach, his head and then his eyes. I could vividly hear his heart pulsating while I held the knife very close to his left eyes but unexpectedly, I furiously drove the knife into his lap vein. A loud scream tore out from his mouth, Still staring at his face, I deepened the knife, I twisted it and dragged it through his vein. His blood was running like water and he screamed on top of his lungs. It did not take long before the fucker started begging me to kill him but his plea fell on my dear ears. After giving him the heavenly vein torture, he was barely breathing. In satisfaction I smirked and shot him in both eyes. He dropped dead and my men took care of the mess.I didn’t head back to Italy, I decided to explore the city with Alex. We crashed at some clubhouse solely to drink and feed our eyes. “This place seems cool.” Alex commented with a loud voice so his voice could be heard amidst the blaring music. “Yeah” I shrugged and took a sip from my glass of scotch. “We should go have fun with some of the bitches...they are hot and sexy,” Alex noted with a nasty smile, his womanizing self back on. "Common!" He pressed on and I scoffed. “Well,” he sipped from his drink. “Earth to Jericho de Luca who's got a high I.Q for everything but never with women” he joked and I rolled my eyes. Seconds later, my eyes met a particular bitch who was walking into the club. It suddenly seemed impossible to take my eyes off her, her Aura got me entranced. She’s different from every other girl here. She was coated in all black and her curves were threatening to burst out. She looked all so perfect and for the first time in years, I lost my control. I couldn’t see her face clearly because of the wisteria of colors but her dangerously hot aura got my dick pulsating. "What the heck is happening," I asked myself as I realized my bodily response. I was craving to get stuck in her ass while I bump her full with my cums. This was a miracle. I have never felt such pull since my erectile dysfunction set in. I eye-searched the hottie one time but couldn’t locate her anymore. Seemed she disappeared or something. The rage that surged in after that made me clenched my fist so tight in order not to explode right here.Alex, who had noticed my change of countenance kept asking me what’s wrong but I ignored him.I managed to calm myself down and resumed drinking with Alex. He didn’t pester me to talk about anything because honestly even I don’t know what just played a while ago.Alex left me to have fun while I remained glued to my seat and continued to feed my eyes. I started feeling pressed and made my way to the restroom. It wasn’t that hard to find. I did my business and was just coming out of the toilet when I heard tiny screams from the other wall. It sounded like the cry of a woman. 'What is a woman doing in the male's restroom?' I asked myself as I trailed the direction of the voice What I saw sent grenades exploding in my head. Some fucker was trying to violatet a woman. I knew this has got nothing to do with me but I’ve grown up to believe one rule; “no man hurts a woman and go scout-free." I wasted no time in descending on the brute. I made sure to beat smugness out of the fucker. I broke his nose, jaw and made him lose some of his teeth then I dragged his ass out. When I steered myself around, I took in the hips of the almost naked woman I had just rescued and I realized she was actually the woman who had gotten my attention back at the club.
Leia's POVMy head banged. My lips were dry and I felt sore down there. Slowly I flicked my eyes open but instantly shut them back. My mind was abruptly thrown into panic mode. The knight in shining armor I had met last night at the club was somehow on top of me!After gathering enough courage, I opened my eyes once more. The settings looked unfamiliar and I was at a loss. It took a while before my brain finally gave me information about what happened last night. I buried my face in my palm in shame. How could I have been so stupid? I had sex with a man I knew nothing about. He was dashingly striking, but I should have kept it together.Pain ripped through my heart as I remembered how it all played out. I remembered it vividly, I threw myself at him because I was drawn to him. Above all, I did this because I couldn't bear to give out my virginity to the mafia boss my father had arranged for me. "You are wrong Leia, this makes no sense," I lectured myself and rage surged through me.I
Leia! Come out of that room this minute!" My father banged the door with his hand. More tears went down my cheeks. I didn't want to come out. It was finally the day I had to meet with the Banda's family and I had my heart in my throat. I kept imagining different scenarios that could play out when I eventually go there. “Leia if you don't come out this minute, this door is going down and you'll regret ever locking it" my father roared from outside, but I didn't budge.My mother spoke. “Leia don't be stubborn. You need to go there now”"I don't want to get married to Jericho mum” I cried out."What nonsense did she just say?” I heard my father's strong hand banging hard against the door and I flinched. "You have been so soft on this girl, that's why she has the effrontery to act like this” as he said those words, more tears went down my cheeks. I had thought my father always pretended not to care about how I felt. At that point, I realized he never for once pretended.“Leia darling we
Jericho’s pov, Bullet beads of sweat dotted every part of my body as I raced on the track. My mind was preoccupied.I had sent down my men to find the woman I met in America, the one who crushed my impotence but the report was negative.My whole fantasy came to an end when my father brought up his alliance with Vatos Locos…he wanted me to get married and he's damn serious!I grunted and sped up as my thoughts became jumbled.My ears picked the sound of footsteps approaching and I turned in a sharp pivot. It was Alex, he was walking into the gym. "Your father asked for you," he said.“If it’s about getting dressed corporately to meet the Vatos Locos, tell him he should go fuck himself.” I jabbed, and focused on the track. I would have evaded this shit but my father held me bound. He threatened that he would give the mafia to another one of his countless children. I'd sacrificed so much for the organization and I can’t just hand it over to anyone. Perharps, I still have some fucker
From a distance, I saw her sitting on the pew close to the waterfall. I stood for a while to watch her and I sensed that she was sobbing with her head faced down. “What do you want?” came her growling voice.“Why did you walk out on my father!?” I roared.“None of your business!” She spat with irritation.I watched her silently and made to sit beside her. “Get out! I want to be alone!” She barked with authority. A mafia’s daughter indeed. I ignored her and sat down anyway. “Now, at least…tell me why you were crying,” I asked casually.“What do you care?!” She spat, turning her face away from me. Care? I don’t entirely care. And maybe I’m being intrusive right now but I'd like to satisfy my curiosity… Was she forced into this shit or is it something else? With that thought, I reached out my hands to touch her chin but she gripped my wrist and in a matter of seconds she twisted it back. It stings kind of but I’m used to pains. She let go after a few minutes, not hiding her disappo
Jericho's POVThe castle roared in felicitations as we all waited for my bride. My mind was preoccupied and I hoped everything would go as planned. Leia fainted yesterday after I dropped the bombshell about the pact that her parents made with my family.I was by her side and nursed her all through the night but when it was almost dawn, Alex came to drag me away, I had to get prepared. While I was lost in thought, my bride appeared. Her gown trailed behind her as she took each step elegantly into the castle. It was like the appearance of an angel on a red tarmac. The castle roared in appraisal and slowly, I rose to my feet, I was mesmerized but despite her alluring beauty, the anguish in her beautiful eyes was evident.She scanned through the crowd frantically and I saw her stagger slightly as realization dawned on her; her parents were nowhere to be found.Somehow, I had prepared for this and I began to walk towards her. I launched forward the moment she began to fall.She fell into
I sat on the bed in my room. I had stripped down the wedding gown and I was lightly dressed. I had sent out my maids and I was alone. All that Rya had said replayed in my head.“Wear the dress and wait for me,” a scoff escaped from my lips as I stared at the message from my phone. It was from the all-powerful Jericho. I peeled my eyes from the text and they landed on the red dress on the bed. I didn’t need to pick it up for me to know it was highly revealing. Just as I thought, Jericho saw me as his whore, not his wife. “Fuck you” I texted back without any fear. He could do his worst for all I cared. I hurled my phone to the bed. In anger, I grabbed the red dress from the bed, squeezed and then tossed it to the floor. What the fuck was he thinking? That I would wear the dress, lay on the bed, and wait for “my lord” to undress me. He had to be kidding me. I dragged my lazy feet to the bathroom to take a shower. The coldness of the water soothed my body and eased away my tension. I
“Get up now” the way his voice sounded calm and at the same time, authoritative baffled me. I didn’t stand up even though the vibration of his hoarse voice struck fear into my heart. My eyes were still shut. One thing was certain, I wasn’t going to stand up from where I lay. “We both know you aren’t sleeping, Leia” He said but I remained still. God, I wasn’t even breathing. I had to take a deep breath, but I was scared I would move too much if I did. “I guess you want it the hard way." I didn’t know what he meant until I felt his strong hand wrap around my arm and with little effort, he jacked me from where I was. One minute, I was faking sleep and the next I was up on my feet staring at Jericho’s intense eyes. I parted my lips to speak, but not a single word came out. “You weren’t sleeping after all” he didn’t give me a chance to speak. With my arm still in his hands, he pulled me to follow him. “You tossed it to the floor!” He was talking about the red dress. I swallowed har
