"Her angel eyes saw the good in many devils"~ Unknown I feel relief washing over me as soon as I step foot out of the dirty cell, Salvatore locks it behind us and leads the way out of the dungeon.I glance around us in different cells, they are all pitch black, you can barely see anything inside, my body shudders thinking about the unfortunate people who are stuck here.The more I spent time in the palace the more I see it's dark side, and I'm not ready to accept it.The dungeon is like a maze, I have to keep up with Salvatore so I don't get lost, after each hallway there are at least 2 different paths sometimes 3.We ascend a few step of stairs till we finally reach above at the warehouse, I keep my head down feeling the penetrating glares of the guards.They also think I killed their Capo.I inhale the fresh air when we step outside the horrific warehouse, I don't dare to peek behind, I keep on following him until we reach the palace gates.Salvatore stops at the main door, I do t
"Death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints"~ Unknown I pull open the door with a jerk, I see a fisted hand stop in mid-air which was about to knock.My green eyes scan around, there are 4 maids infront of my door and I see more behind them."Sì?" I ask in a blank tone."Non lasceremo che un assassino dorma qui con noi!" (We won't let a murderer sleep here with us!) One of them shouts, the others nod their heads in agreement."Quando vado a letto con tutti voi, sono qui nella mia stanza che condivido con Ray e per quanto ne so lei non ha problemi con me" (When am I sleeping with you all, I'm here in my room that I share with Ray and as much as I know she has no problem with me) I answer glancing back at her."Questa è la nostra zona dei quartieri! Non lo condivideremo con voi!" (This is our quarters area! We will not share it with you!) They protest.I frown "Salvatore mi ha mandato qui di persona, andrete tutti contro i suoi ordini?" (Salvatore has sent me here h
"Love makes the shy brave and the brave shy"~ c.c.aurelI wake up by the chirping of the birds, I flutter my eyes open, the morning light surrounds me, I turn over on my back, the few dry leaves crunching under my body.I glance at Sophia's grave.A new morning a new battle.I sit up rubbing my face, I need to freshen up, I sit for a while contemplating how I can use the restroom as they are all inaid the palace.I sigh standing up, let's do this.I leave my things behind and make my way towards the palace, the door is wide open with 2 guards standing by each side, I expect them to stop me but they don't even glance at my direction.I look around the entryway is empty, where is everyone?"Daisy!" A relieved voice comes rushing towards me, I look at my right side, Ray is making her way to me followed by a worried looking Dario.She hugs me quickly, "I'm so sorry! I'm sorry I couldn't stop them!" She say sorrowfully, I tighten my hold."No worries, I'm fine" I assure hee, she pulls ba
"We'll never be those kids again"~ Unknown I see the church's entrance after walking my way following Dario's direction.I see alot of expensive cars parked outside and guarda spread around looking for any intruders.They see me but none stops me as I step inside.My breath gets stuck in my throat as the first thing that I see when I enter is the open casket of Gio on the other end of the church.Everyone is seated down, Salvatore is standing by his brother's head gazing down at him.He lifts his gaze, they were blank before but turned intense after finding me here.I take a deep breath and make my way inside, the people around me glance at me, they instantly recognize me as the 'killer of their Capo.'The powerful men among the crowd give me murderous glares, their women gossip behind their fans.I ignore everyone and walk upto Gio's casket."Stop right there!" A strong angry voice stops me, my foot freezes mid air on the stair step.I turn around, Senior Capo walks upto me, he loo
"Not the end. Far from it"~ Unknown "Enough!" Salvatore's loud voice booms in the church, everyone quietens down."I want no more drama in my brother's funeral! We can continue this telly show back at the palace" he looks around in a firm manner.Madam Guilia opens her mouth to protest "anyone who doesn't comply will be forced to leave the church, I will not let them be a part of my brother's final journey, now the choice is yours!" He says the last words looking at Madam.She stands up on shaky feet, a maid helps her settle on the chair, she bows her head and doesn't dare speak a word after that."Qualcuno vuole dire qualche ultima parola per il nostro Capo?" (Does anyone wants to say any last words for our Capo?) The church's father asks after everyone is settled in their seats, I raise my hand.I notice the protesting facial expressions on everyone's face but no one speaks in fear of Salvatore including Senior Capo."Vieni bambino" (Come child) father motions me to join up the po
"What goes around comes back around"~ UnknownI sit at a bench until it's finally time to put down Gio in his grave, I follow the crowd towards the graveyard, I hear some of the women gossiping that this is Moretti's personal graveyard and every family member has been buried here.I stand at a corner waiting for the final ritual, Salvatore's phone rings, he glances at it then looks around as if searching for someone.A minute later the crowd on the right side parts, Lucia slowly walks towards Gio, her father is holding onto her shoudlers for support.Her face looks so dull, her hair are tied up in a meesy bun, she gently removes her father's hand from her shoulder, he stops midway letting her do this alone.Hesitantly, she get's closer to Gio. Her lower lip trembles as soon as she gazes at his sleeping face.She falls down on the ground, her father takes a step to hold her but stop, he clenches his fist and looks away with teary eyes."Gio..." she whisper brokenly."Il nostro bambino
"Chase your stars fool, life is too short"~ Wild I follow Salvatore until he guides me inside his office, I gently pull away my hand and take a seat on the corner sofa, he shuts the door behind him and sits beside me, leaving a small space between us.For 5 minutes we stay silent, I look around the office, observing it's interior when he finally speaks."What will you do once you're proven innocent?" He asks, I shift my green eyes towards him, he's alreay staring at me."Leave this place" I answer without missing a beat."What will you do if I'm proven guilty?" I ask, he studies my face "I'll lock you in the dungeon forever" he responds.The answer surprises me and scares me together.I thought he'd torture me then kill me, but staying in the dungeon forever, I don't like the sound of it."Won't you kill me or something?" I voice out my thoughts, "no" he answers curtly."I get it" I nod my head understanding the reason behind his punishment, he quirks up a brow, "you want to see my
"What hurts the most is letting go of the one who meant the most"~ j.m. wise"Signore, abbiamo controllato il sistema del suo ufficio e ho trovato questo chip, sembra che qualcuno stesse cercando di controllare le sue impostazioni di sicurezza, grazie a Dio il chip ha funzionato male e abbiamo rilevato l'errore in tempo, altrimenti chiunque l'abbia fatto avrebbe potuto accedere facilmente all'interno del suo ufficio" (Sir, we checked your office system and I found this chip, it seems like someone was trying to control your security settings, thank god the chip malfunctioned and we caught the error on time or else whoever did this could had easily accessed inside in your office) the palace technician informs showing us a small microchip held between his gloved thumb and pointer finger."Come può qualcuno superare il sistema così facilmente?" (How can someone get through the system so easily?) Salvatore rages at his man.I silently observe around the office room, I found out that behin
