The party was bubbling with entertainment, music in the air, flashy lights illuminating the whole place. Elena was sitting alone at a table, she had come here with three of the gang members, Mateo and two other made-men.The two men were outside while Mateo was inside, keeping an eye on her. Even though she couldn’t see him, she knew that he was watching her from a corner. The man she had come for was two tables away, he was surrounded by about five able bodied young men, obviously his guards.Elena was trying to come up with a plan, a way she could get closer to him. she wouldn’t just go there and sit, he was a high profile fellow, he could have his men toss her out of the party the next moment.She also couldn’t confront him and ask for his phone at gunpoint, his men obviously had bigger guns; they would off her before she even made a move. Elena was confused; she had no idea what to do next. Leonardo had made it clear that if the mission wasn’t successful, he would kill a member of
“What do you think you are doing?” the man queried with furrowed eyebrows.“Don’t ask me any questions, turn around and put your hands up in the air,” she ordered. She had suddenly found courage after he called her a bitch, she hated that term a lot and wouldn’t mind killing because of it.The man chuckled. “You are really silly to threaten me, do you know who I am?” he asked and made to come closer.“Not another step, I am not kidding,” she warned with a stern face and the man paused.“Stop this and put down the gun, it's obvious you haven’t shot someone before, your hands are shaking,” he said and laughed.Even though he was acting tough and fearless, Elena could see the fear visible in his eyes, she knew she got him where she wanted him, she just had to put more effort or she would be gone.“You are right, I haven’t shot someone before but I really want to know what it feels like, so don’t piss me off further or I will blow off your fucking brain!!” she threatened. “Now, hands in t
Lorenzo stood at a dark spot watching as Leonardo dragged Elena down the stairs, he couldn’t understand what was going on between those two. Few minutes later, Leo walked out of the basement.Lorenzo quickly hid away behind a pillar and waited for Leo to walk past, the Mafia Boss walked past him muttering some inaudible words, he sounded really angry; Elena must have really pissed him off.Leonardo suddenly paused; he sniffed and turned around like he could smell something odd. Lorenzo hid himself properly, moving very gently to avoid making a sound. He noticed Leo walking back slowly towards him; this wasn’t good, if the Boss caught him spying on him, he would be in big trouble.Leo got closer to him and his heart began to race. It didn’t matter that he was older than Leonardo; the Don could punish anyone he wished to. If Leo could sentence his own uncle to death, how much more someone that wasn’t blood related?Even if Leonardo doesn’t feel the need to punish him, this would be a re
Baron White groaned when he heard another knock on the door, he had just sent the last person away a few minutes ago, who was at the door again? He might be the Chief Editor of this media outlet, but he didn’t see it as a reason why he should be bothered and bugged by the workers constantly; they should give him a break.Baron was someone who really didn’t like anything stressful in his life, he just wanted to live a happy, comfortable life and out of trouble. First, his wife now was nothing like the woman he saw before marriage; thanks to his gentle, stay out of trouble nature, he had become the female in the marriage, while she took the position of the head of the table.Not like he was complaining, in fact he still loved her very much, but he just wished she was less demanding and bossy with him. Was he weak for not wanting any troubles? Was he weak for living a life of nonviolence?All he ever wanted was a nice comfy life where he gets everything he wants served on a platter of go
“Alright ma’am thanks for providing us this information. We would look into it and find out if it's the truth. If it is so, I promise you, we would bring the offenders to justice. We are yet to get a formal complaint from the man in the picture, but our men will investigate right away and confirm from him.Please note that we would not be able to carry out further investigations if the Victim refuses to make a report, as long as he doesn’t file charges, we won't be able to do anything. But if he does, I assure you that the culprit would be brought to face the law, they would be brought to justice.” The police detective replied to Anna.She had just reported the incident to the police as an eye witness, not minding the implications of her actions and how badly it could affect her. Right now she was really angry and it didn’t matter to her if she was putting her life at risk. Although she had threaded carefully by not mentioning the Mafia in her statement, it was better the police found
Marco Vincenzo and his team arrived in front of the house; they pulled up and took positions outside. He signaled four men to stand watch for the suspect while he proceeded to the front door with two men.** * * * * * * * * * *Captain Marco had seen the report that Anna made on the day of his arrival and he decided to take it as his first case. He intended to wipe out crime and corruption in the city, starting from the smallest units.From petty thefts, fist and knife attacks to high profile killers and fraudsters. He was going to stop at nothing to bring all the bad men down. The captain was a citizen of the country and state as well, he was from that very province- the Sicilian region.After hearing all the bad reports about the crime rate in his hometown, he had begged his superiors to let him come down here and thoroughly wipe out crime in this city. He hoped that the cops in the city were capable because if they were not, he would have to request a new team from the higher autho
Elena stands up as she hears footsteps climbing down the stairs, she is glad that someone has finally decided to come and check on her. The poor girl had been screaming ever since the previous night that she was roughly dragged and locked in the small cell.It seemed like no one was paying attention to her, she had been here for roughly twenty hours; at least she was able to keep time with the help of the watch on her wrist before she was brutally locked away.She had not had any food or water and she was obviously starving. Maybe it would have been better if she had no count of time; watching the clock go round over and over was really stressful, she had to sleep a couple of times.The man got to her and opened the cell door, she had this urge to rush out immediately but sighting the gun in the guard’s hand, he chose to play cool and wait for instructions. Maybe that was what she needed to get out of here, just do as you are told.“Come on, the boss wants you to meet him in the dinin
Elena ran all the way to her bedroom and shut the door the moment she was in. She wasn’t running from anyone in particular, she had run off from the dining room after Leonardo misbehaved with her- at least, that is the way she saw it.She jumped on the bed and buried her face in the pillow while shedding tears like an infant. It had just dawned on her that her life was ruined; yes, practically it was!First, he was a prisoner to this crazy Mafia lord who had made her do horrible things in the name of grooming her, and now she was a fugitive in the outside world, a wanted criminal. Her life might not have been entirely in a mess before but now it was pretty fucked up.Even if she was able to make it out of here alive, she was a wanted criminal out there, they will put her in a cage at first sight and probably lock her up for the rest of her life. Now, she had to choose between the devil and the deep blue sea, that is if she was opportune to choose.Elena jolted up at the sound of a kno
