Solane

I sat up on the bed and my gaze drifted across the room, it wasn't my room, I was in Marcello’s room and on his bed. For a moment, the fear of being caught gripped my heart. I cannot imagine the punishment Marcello would give me if he found out that I sneaked a gun and phone into his house.

I straightened on the bed. Wait a minute, even if he finds it, it wouldn't be traced to me, right?

“How are you feeling, Sol?” He asked, his voice low and careful, searching my face.

My eyes widened in surprise at his words, throwing my expectations off. My gaze softened as I feigned ignorance despite the rapid beat of my heart. “I…I feel better,” I said, my throat dry as the words rolled off my tongue.

“Are you sure?” He said, placing his palm over my forehead to feel my temperature.

My eyes flickered to his, disbelief crossing my heart even though it was happening right before my eyes.

I nodded slightly, “Yes,” I muttered, wondering who the person standing before was, not that it was a

    Solane The choking smell of smoke made its way into my nostrils, causing me to cough violently. The weight of an unknown thing pinned me down, making it unable for me to shift my weight.My eyelids fluttered open slightly, the foggy smoke stinging them as I forced them open. My gaze landed on the thug who had kidnapped me, blood oozed out on the side of his head, the sight of it made my stomach twist.“Ahggg,” I groaned as I pushed the weight of the seat that trapped me off my legs. I winched as I pulled my legs out slowly, a scrap of iron scratching my skin.Gathering all the strength left in me, I hit the glass with the sole of my shoe, pain shot through my body at every attempt I made to break the glass and I couldn't until my gaze swept the vehicle and my gaze fell on the thug's pistol. My hands trembled as I reached out to grab the pistol but then I froze when he moved slightly, a groan escaping his lips.When I saw that he wasn't fully awake, I grabbed the door swiftly, pulling

    Marcello “Che…Mar, I didn't,” she rasped, her words tearing out between shallow, panicked breaths as her hands held mine against her neck.“Don, the other men had gone in search of her,” the guard said, but I was too angry. All I just wanted was to punish her for sending her out in the first place.“Marcello!” Nonnetta's voice echoed, cutting through the tension in the air.Her eyes widened in horror as they dropped to my tightened fingers around Tonia's neck. The horror in her face switched to disappointment, making me release my grip on Tonia's neck.Tonia slid to the floor, coughing vigorously, tears oozing from her eyes.Fuck!! What the hell came over me? I rarely lose control like I just did. I had kept my brutal side away from grandma and now she has seen it. I felt my heart sunk as I failed to keep the promise I made to myself: Portraying the image of a good and normal grandson to Grandma.Nonnetta hurried to Tonia, helping her up but then Tonia's weight dropped on the floor w

    MarcelloI clenched my fist, squeezing the piece of paper in my hand, as anger and frustration rose up inside of me. I threw the crunched paper away in anger, dropping at one of my men's feet.This investigation is getting harder than I thought, it has been fifteen years and I'm still searching for Marcella without making any progress and also the plan to acquire the Gambino Empire.The letter I received a while ago shows that I was probably getting closer to knowing the truth. My lips curled into a smirk as a bulb of insight lit my head.“Get me the crunched paper,” I said, my voice laced with quiet command.I spread out the crunched paper as soon as it got to my hand then hung it on the transparent board that contained other leads that make up my investigations.Someone is trying to make me stop, the mistake he made was sending me a warning. It almost had me but at this point I would only intensify my investigations. When I finally get to meet the person who sent me the letter, my b

    SolanePanic tugged at the strings of my heart as I became conscious of my surroundings after some moment of blackout. ‘Where am I?’ I said internally.My eyelids fluttered slightly, taking in another amount of darkness, the veil used to blindfold me and the tight rope around my wrist made me wince in pain. The thought of being kidnapped again flashed through my mind, making me fidget. “She’s awake,” a rouged voice said, alerting the others.They have been keeping their eyes on me. There was silence for a moment before I felt rough hands grip me by my dress making me sit up. “Who are you?” I demanded, though my voice betrayed me with a slight, unwanted tremble.A low croaked laughter erupted from his lips, sharp enough to freeze my blood. “You won't want to know who we are. If you do, you won't ever survive here.‘Oh.. lord! Is this how I would get killed?’ The question echoed in my head as my breath came shallow. But then his response shows that they weren't going to kill me.“S

    SolaneA sharp pain stinged my cheeks as soon her hand left my face. My lips curled into a mocking smile, while I raised my head slowly, enough for her to see my face clearly. “You wretch!” She gritted, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets. I let out a defiant laugh, “Did I hit a nerve?” I shot back.She stepped closer to me, closing the little distance between us, leaning into my ear, “You seemed to have grown a thick skin, huh?” A slow, dangerous smirk curved her. “I don't waste my time on hopeless wrench like you. Be ready to face whatever comes your way.”My hands clenched by my side as she stepped aside, her eyes gleaming with cruelness as she turned to leave. I watched her back as she walked away, bracing myself from whatever she had up her sleeves. I was about to turn to the kitchen direction when I caught a glimpse of someone standing or hiding behind a pillar watching me from a little distance. I had caught a wave of someone watching from behind even before Tonia sl
