Emery

The next few days were amazing. Elijah’s house on Marblehead was exactly how I remembered it. The stone and wood from the outside carried on inside as well. It gave it a special cozy feeling.

We built fires everyday in the oversized fireplace in the living room. We sipped wine and watched movies and got in the heated pool and hot tub. Elijah cooked steak and potatoes and pasta and pizza.

We walked around and looked at the beautiful foliage and I took a few pictures. Although not as many as I would have normally. Ever since what had happened.. holding a camera didn’t give me the same joy that it used to. Now it reminded me of being beaten and naked on the floor of that old warehouse.

We went to Salem and I got my dream of doing all the Halloween things.

There were parades, and so much good food.. we ate until we could eat no more. I think Elijah ate his weight in candied apples. We even made our own.. after picking them, then bobbing for them ..

We went to visit several of t

  • The Mafia’s Regret   Chapter 60

    Jasper When Emery and I were in college, we got into all sorts of things. But dammit did we have a blast. That’s when we got really close. It was only after I returned, and my dad gave me so much responsibility over the business that I started pulling away from her. And before that she was always stuck to Elijah and those other assholes for us to ever get too close. But when we left … I had her all to myself. After Vivian had shouted out those horrible awful words my dad and I had stood there dumbfounded. And of course neither one of us believed her for a second… not really anyway. But she only yelled it out once my dad was about to kick her in the stomach. If it had been a trick.. she would’ve said it sooner .. at least that’s what I’m thinking. It seems like my dad is thinking the same because he immediately stopped what he was doing and stared at her. But he wanted proof. A half an hour later, my dad’s private doctor and a nurse were there .. doing a blood test on Vivian. I

  • The Mafia’s Regret   Chapter 59

    Emery For the past couple of weeks I’ve felt … off. Strange. Trapped. Like I’m crawling out of my own skin. Like I’m stuck in a fish bowl and can’t get out. Antsy. On edge…… Probably because the guys have made me sit at home and “heal”. Ever since I pulled the gun on my attackers they’ve been walking on egg shells around me. But they’ve also been extremely overbearing. It’s not that I don’t appreciate it, I do. I just need to get out of here and do something. I’d feel better if I could put this whole thing to rest. I feel like there’s a lot I need to get off my chest… it’s suffocating. When either Elijah, Oliver, or Frankie can’t be here they send one of the other guys. The first couple days they sent Proctor and Caleb. They figured I’d be more comfortable since I knew them well. We were all friends. But after that I started ignoring the ever-present extra person in my house. Apparently things were up in the air and everyone was on edge. The building that the guys were keepin

  • The Mafia’s Regret   Chapter 58

    Elijah I walked out of my dad’s office with both Frankie and Oliver on my tail. I punched the elevator button and we all got on.. still not speaking. We went down a floor to Oliver’s apartment and I stood by as he unlocked the door and we all piled in. Frankie immediately walked out to the balcony and pulled out a cigarette while I walked straight to the liquor cabinet and poured myself a drink. Oliver was jerking off his tie and suit jacket. “FUCKKKK!!” I yelled. “How the hell did this happen??” Frankie came inside saying. Oliver was pacing back and forth.. he stopped and swung at his punching bag he had hanging from the ceiling of the great room. It was a huge open space .. it housed his living area, complete with a fireplace and leather couches, his super modern white marble kitchen.. the workout equipment on the other side of the wall that was completely glass and opened up to the balcony…. You could see the entire city from way up here. I downed the drink.. immediately

    Jasper I’d just returned home after a few days of vacation. All the shit going on had finally just about driven me crazy. When my brother was visiting he had asked me to come stay with him and his wife for a visit. And even though I initially told him no.. there was just too many problems happening that needed taking care of here; I ended up deciding that was exactly why I needed to go. Even though my father is the Don … the truth was I handled more than my share of the business… more than I was meant to in fact .. because my father had been giving me more and more responsibilities for the past three years. Ever since I got out of college and Emery and I came back home .. I felt like he was loading me up with things to do. I knew he was trying to prepare me to take over one day, but it seemed like I was getting all the work with none of the reward. So I went to my brother’s for a few days and enjoyed the fuck out of the peace and quiet. He drug me out with his lawyer buddies

    Elijah I stared at her. I could tell the way her entire body shook that she was having trouble. But she’d begged and begged to face them. She wanted closure, I suppose. So here we are. No one said a word as Frankie and Oliver stood on either side of Emery.. just in case one of these idiots tried anything.. they’d get knocked the fuck out. Although I can’t imagine them being that stupid. But I was ready to fucking strangle both of them .. soon as they saw her.. they began to smile. They way they looked at her had me on extreme high alert … I was an inch away of slicing their necks right then. “Well well.. I don’t believe my eyes ..” Zeke said. But he didn’t get much else out because Frankie was in his face. “Oh no dude … you don’t get to talk. Not unless she asks you a question. Then you may answer. Otherwise .. if you want to keep your tongue … shut the fuck up ..”. Emery still hadn’t said a word and I was losing my fucking mind. Having her in the same room with them was makin

    EmeryFinally. Finally I was going to be able to put all this behind me. Elijah was taking me to see the men. I had been more than ready for this. But now that it was actually happening, my stomach bottomed out and I felt sick. While we were in Salem and Marblehead I was able to compartmentalize my worries and fears around the kidnapping and enjoy the moment. But soon as we started home… it all came rushing back in. Still. I wanted to do this. I needed to, for my own sanity. We’d gotten back late day before yesterday so all I did was unpack and take a bath .. eat and go to bed. Yesterday Bridge spent the entire day with me. We hung out and watched movies and drank wine and ordered pizza. I gave Elijah the day. This morning I knew I was going straight to his apartment and demand he take me to see them. But I didn’t have to, because he offered first. He must’ve known I would start fussing about going today. So.. I came prepared. I didn’t tell the guys because they’d never allow me
