Sicily, Italy
Myra
My whole life was a lie. I had spent my life raised by my mother thinking that I have no one but her. I don't hate her for not sharing the dark history of her past or her family. But I am broken inside to know that she didn't even bother to give me a chance to choose between a mafia and a normal life. I got to know how she had faked her death after getting pregnant. She raised me alone, being in the dark, hidden from her enemies. She did everything to protect me from the bare hands of other mafias. Maybe she was in love for the first time with my biological father. That is why she left her billion dollar business, her position in the mafia and everything. But the result she got was more than heart breaking. She never got the normal life that she had craved for. She left the dark world to be someone's wife and live happily but her past made a never ending patch in her life. And my biological father, he is nothing but
After 1 yearSicily, ItalyThe ambience of the room was tense with people exchanging their glances at each other."I fucking do bother about it. I want the exact trace of that bastard who had dared to cross our border to steal the shipment." The owner of the voice was female but the tone and the rage was enough to make almost everyone gulp down their own saliva."We are...” One man tried to speak but he was cut off."Yes you are? Do you think you can survive after betraying us? The new rising gang asked for your help and I bet you did a bit, right?""By mistake we did without knowing the real motive of them. We have revoked our support now.""Great, now you tell me. What should be your punishment for making such a massive mistake?""I.... We ...can take the vow... We didn't know about the situation before." The man was tottering badly while sweating like a pig.This time Myra
Sekhawat PalaceRanvijayI was gulping down the alcohol while sitting in my room. I have never felt my room or bed that much empty the way I am feeling right now. Every day I came back to my room to welcome myself with emptiness. I haven't removed her leftover dresses from my closet since she left. Those bangles are still left in front of the mirror where she used to sit to get ready. The same nuptial chain was left by her. The only thing of mine that she had with me was the pendant. I don't know whether she had thrown it away or not. I haven't removed mine. Every night I toss and turn to get accustomed to the sudden rush of being left alone. I try to sniff the bed sheet or the pillow of her to get her smell. How could she just forget everything that happened in between us? Since she had left I became more ruthless according to Randhir. I looked at the picture kept on the wall in front of my eyes. Our wedding picture. She looked angry
1 Month BackIt was late at night when Xavier's call reached Myra's cell phone. Myra and Arthur were drinking and discussing some facts. Seeing the unknown caller ID she put the call on speaker after getting hand gestures from Arthur."Hello sweetheart." She hasn't heard from Xavier directly over a call because he didn't know about her being alive until his sources did a good digging job. Hearing the voice Arthur immediately recognised the owner and snatched the cell phone away."You bastard, stay away from her or you would regret your birth."Seeing her brother's clenched jaw and fisted palms Myra understood the bastard on the other side was none other than Xavier."Cool down Arthur. I am not asking for her hand for marriage, I am asking for her blood only. But I believe she would be good for a one night stand also. After all she is experienced now."Myra's blood froze in her veins. The last sentence was not only humi
As the days were passing Xavier’s attacks increased. It became a cat and mouse game. Every time either Arthur was destroying some warehouses of Xavier or Xavier was trying to steal the shipment of Arthur’s. Most of the time it was Xavier who lost the battle. This time things took an ugly turn. Arthur had his expansion in Asian countries and Xavier attacked some of Arthur’s areas. It was mostly legal business areas of Arthur so eventually they got help from the govt. of those countries. Having faded up, Arthur called a meeting with the Asian Mafia groups to proceed further. Nicolas got furious this time. He was at the verge of setting Norway on fire after hearing about Xavier’s phone call. Myra somehow decided to stay back for a certain time before attacking. Xavier was sufficiently blinded by his revenge, he wouldn't mind putting anyone on death bed. But Arthur and Myra couldn't just go with the flow. They had plenty of people dependent on them. Declaring war
A week laterIt's already been a week since Ranvjiay was in Italy. Randhir went back to look after the business and Takht. Ranvijay waited for Myra. Every time he asked Myra to leave with him, he was awarded with a clean rejection. Today only Myra has decided to meet him once before he leaves for India. In this past one week he didn't leave any single chance to make her understand how badly he wants her. The more he was pursuing the more she was becoming rigid. His dream of enjoying his wife's birthplace with his wife found its way back in a dark alley. There was a time when Myra used to show him her the pictures of her house and college and many more. Every time they were discussing going for a trip it was always Ranvijay's idea to come over here in Sicily. Never in his dream had he thought to come back to Sicily alone. He never thought that his wife would be taken away and he would be returning empty handed. It's really not
"Brother", "Husband"Two words were fighting inside Myra's head whereas Ranvjiay stood with one single pistol in his hand. Xavier stood with another man. Surely more would be coming soon. The first thing Myra tried to remember that was her brother's present state. Closing her eyes she tried to remember every single detail since the gun shot had started in that alley. Their men arrived as she saw those blue dots. Among them Arthur's car was also there. If Xavier would have already got Arthur then surely he would have dragged him here. But she needed to confirm that first."Where is Arthur?" Myra spoke with her gritted teeth."Poor sister. You engrossed yourself so much in saving your husband that you haven't noticed how Arthur was taken down."A small smile erupted in Xavier's mouth as soon as he finished speaking.Myra was still playing in her mind the last encounter like a repeat telecast of any show. There were no calls about Ar
MyraI was running on the empty roads of Sicily. There was coldness and harsh winds all around. My sweats were dripping like some water droplets. I gasped, tried hard to engulf enough air to keep my pace high. The footsteps were reaching me madly. I started getting goosebumps just by thinking about the result of being caught by them. I was panting hard when I reached the safest distance. I looked back once to watch over them. My ears were ringing with the sound of my own heartbeat. At the end I turned my face to run further. But my steps got glued to the surface. I saw him standing in front of me. Xavier pointed his gun towards me. He fired the shot. He didn't miss this time. He was quick to get me on my knees. But I was not feeling any pain. There was blood splashed on my face but no intriguing pain was there in my body. Realisation hit me hard. I looked to my left and right. I saw my wall of strength getting broken into tiny pieces. There was Arthur and Ran
RanvijayI had received a late night call six months back from an unknown international number after two days of my reaching back to India. Thinking about a new mafia or other alliance when I did pick that up, I found it was none but Sylvia. I was told only two sentences but I bet the first one was the one that sounded sweeter than anything in the world."Myra is fine."Yes. I wanted to play that voice a thousand times in my mind. Myra is fine and what else I can expect. I left Italy not because I was threatened by Arthur, but to respect Sylvia and their words. Second part of her statement hurt me too much. Am I really her doom?Sylvia's next statement stabbed me like anything."Don't be the reason for her pain again."She might have said the right thing. Since she got married she was inflicted only with pain. I never knew she was such a gem. I wouldn't even know there are girls like her. Maybe only one. Th
