Emery

I unlocked the door to my old house and stepped inside. It was like I’d gone through a time warp.. and ended up years before. Much like what had actually happened to me. I almost expected it to be damp and musty in here. But I should’ve known better.

Vincent had people over here all the time cleaning and freshening up the place. They periodically turned on the heat and air conditioning too.. making sure everything was in tip top shape.

I flipped the light switch on and the whole entry way lit up. I’d forgotten how much my parents house was similar to Vincent’s. It had always been the coziest and happiest place. Maybe that’s why I liked his so much.

I felt my heart crack a little more when I looked at the huge picture that hung on the entry way wall straight in front of me. It was of my parents and I. I was probably around eleven or twelve in the picture.

It was the last professional pictures we ever had made. The photographer was coming to my birthday party that night ..

  • The Mafia’s Regret   Chapter 74

    Frankie Emery was sitting in the outside chair all snuggled up with a blanket. Looking as peaceful as a damn butterfly when we hauled our asses over the fence to get in. Then she told us the door was unlocked. What the fuck?Did no one even try to open the door?? I immediately walked in the house to check and sure enough .. the fucker wasn’t locked. But I locked it then. I turned and headed back outside and looked at her. “What gives?” I asked. Even though I knew why she’d ran off. Elijah was over there flapping his jaws and canoodling with his ex. I’m sure it hurt her feelings and made her feel weird. And on the drive over here Bridge said she didn’t even know they’d dated. It probably wouldn’t have been a big thing … except for the fact that they were serious. They were together for nearly four years .. Hell Elijah even brought up marrying her once. I know Emery doesn’t know that.. because Bridge doesn’t. And I don’t think Oliver would be stupid enough to bring that up. Espec

    Elijah. I waited as long as I could. I’d scarfed my food down in record time. And even though I knew my dad would eventually tell me where Emery went.. I still hacked into the tracing device we put on her phone. I just had to get Oliver to tell me the code and after me threatening to stab him… he finally did. She was at her old house?? What the fuck was she doing there? She never went there. I stood .. ready to go get her. I gave my dad a look that said don’t even try me. It hadn’t been an hour yet .. but it was close. Frankie saw me and immediately jumped up as well. Then Oliver came too. But I was surprised when I saw Bridge stand up. “I’m coming…. Don’t try to stop me.” She said then walked around us, leaving us no room to argue. Caddy stood up then … and no way was she coming. “Where y’all running off to?” She smiled at me. “Uhhh we’ve got to .. take care of something. We’ll be back later don’t worry.” I said. She laughed and shook her head. “Still always on the go ar

  • The Mafia’s Regret   Chapter 71

    Bridge Vincent was calling everyone to come and eat. I went up to my mother who was talking to some of the other ladies there and told her it was time to eat. She nodded and turned looking past me at my grandfather who was waving us over. He wanted to hurry up and get in line and not be at the end. I’m sure he somehow thought the food would all be gone if he wasn’t first in line. My grandfather reminded me of the granddad on the movie Christmas Vacation. He was gruff and rude half the time.. except to me of course. And he was the kind to say ‘I’ve got to eat so I can take my back pill!’ just like the guy on the movie. I looked around for Emery but I didn’t see her. She’d wandered off earlier after seeing Elijah hanging all over that bitch Caddy. I had no idea she wasn’t aware of their history. As far as actual girlfriends went … she’d been the only one for Elijah. Sure he had girls left and right ever since I’d known him .. they all had. But nothing serious .. up until her. O

    Emery I stood there.. stunned, staring.. I couldn’t move. I mean .. it wasn’t like he threw her down on the ground and was fucking her right here in the open but he was sharing something intimate.. the hug it .. wasn’t like a hug you’d give your friend. It was a hug like the ones he gives me. I was jostled out of my thoughts when someone ran up behind me and grabbed my shoulders. The sudden and unexpected touch scared the shit out of me. It reminded me of something .:..“Hey youuuu I’ve been looking for you everywhere I was standing out on the porch for an hour .. waiting to be invited in…. What are you staring at?” Bridge was saying in my ear. She looked up then and saw what I was seeing. “Oh.” She said. “Oohhhhhh…” “Who is that?” I asked, although I was pretty sure I already knew. It had been years since I’d seen her though. “That’s Caddy… remember?” She said. I nodded. “Unfortunately.” I said. Caddy .. who’s real name was Cadence but everyone called her Caddy. Don’t

  • The Mafia’s Regret   Chapter 69

    Emery Well fuck. That was definitely not where I thought this was going. But I kept my promise and tried my damndest not to let it get it me. He must have been wanting to ask me that for years. I can tell just by how serious he got. The boys have known about my nightmares for as long as I’d had them. We had sleepovers… even as kids. They’d woken me up on several different occasions because I’d be screaming and crying and thrashing around in my sleep. I didn’t know if I could do it though. I never allow myself to go back to that place. I see enough at night when I’m sleeping. If I start talking about it I’m afraid I will remember more details. And honestly I don’t want to. But for now I shove his request in that lock box in the back of my mind. And I tell him okay. And just to lighten the mood because he’s being way too quiet now I add:“But it doesn’t matter because no way am I passing up the chance to have your car for a week. How does it do on gravel?” I joke. He scoffed.
