FORTY-EIGHT

It's been a fucking hour since she went into that room and no one was out of it yet. This was testing his patience in so many ways possible, and he wasn't a good fan of being patient.

Alessandro looked down a bit at his rolled up sleeve to reveal the stitched up area, bringing his thoughts to the fact that the nurse had suggested that he rested but he didn't want to, at least not until she was out of there. Not like he cared anyway. He stood up the moment he saw the doctor coming out of the operating room, with a clipboard on his hand. Their eyes met and the doctor bowed his head in respect and allegiance, “Don Moretti.”

“How is she?” he asked letting the words roll out of his tongue freely, knowingly avoiding the use of ‘my wife’.

If the doctor noticed this, he didn't show it. “We've successfully managed to get her out of danger so you've got nothing to worry about. The bullet didn't penetrate too deep into her bone. It just grazed her arm but she's lost alot of blood. Bu

  • The Mafia's Willing Prey   FORTY-NINE

    FORTY-NINEThe air in the warehouse was thick with the smell of dust, sweat and dried blood. This wasn't just any warehouse. It was the warehouse they took their prisoners that needed extra torture, that committed grevious crimes.It was a reminder to the captive that no matter how much you screamed at the top of your lungs, nobody would be coming to your aid and neither would you be heard. The man who had shot Isabelle had been chained to a rusted metal chair, his face pale and twitching from the hours of fear that had already passed. His body ached from the several beatings he had received earlier. They told him that they wouldn't kill him yet, that they were reserving him for their boss, and he knew who the boss they were referring to was. He didn't want to start imagining the amount of torture that he would experience but perhaps he could plead with them and they would let him go. Let him go?His inner voice laughed at the possibility making him feel like a fool for even thinking

  • The Mafia's Willing Prey   FORTY-SEVEN

    FORTY-SEVENIsabelle tried to speak…she wanted to say something but she couldn't, as pain surged through her body radiating from her arm. She tried to hold him even tighter, but her hold was running loose. There was an influx of voices around her and she wasn't sure who it belonged to. Staring into Alessandro’s eyes, a wave of shock went over his face and his eyes were filled with desperation…anger. She felt all the strength in her body slip away as she fell to the ground. Following Alessandro’s eyes, she trailed it to where the bullet carved a hole into her arm. Alessandro held her hand as he tried to control the flow of blood but that didn't help as it seeped through his fingers, pouring out uncontrollably.She saw him look up and more anger radiated through him. Perhaps, that could have been the one who shot her. She heard him mutter something angrily in Italian and because she couldn't decipher what he meant, she let it slide. “Fuck! FUCK!” she heard him say as anger and despera

    FORTY-SIXThe sound echoed across the room. It's deafening. Isabelle quickly covered her ears with her hands. The shot felt so close, yet for a few seconds, she hadn't opened her eyes to know who got shot or where the bullet had gone to.The hand in her hair releases her with a shove, automatically sending her to the floor as she landed on her legs and knees. She looked up admist tears and all she could see was a red stain at his arm. Alessandro staggered a bit but that didn’t stop him from taking steps forward.She shook her head, looking down and up at him at a regulated pace. She couldn't believe it. She didn't want to, because how can she explain that the devil stood in for her. That the devil was took a bullet for her sake.That's because she couldn't explain it. It was hard to tell.Then there was a second shot.She screamed. But Alessandro was quick enough. She wasn't sure how but he probably must have dodged a lot of bullets in his life time.Then Domenico shoots again. She

  • The Mafia's Willing Prey   FORTY-FIVE

    FORTY-FIVEWas that Alessandro?It couldn't be. She was probably hearing things. Regardless of her doubt, within her she knew it could only be him. She knew his voice by heart already. He was here for her and that only made her heart leap for joy.The explosion caused a little distraction and that led to the man who had come to give him the news, untying her on Domenico's request. He wanted to take her to another location where Alessandro wouldn't find her but Isabelle didn't know this. She tried to get away from him but she was way too slow, because he gripped a handful of her hair. She cried out. The extreme pain of being dragged by her hair filled her eyes with tears. She thought she was done crying the moment she heard Alessandro’s voice. She figured that probably a person could only have limited teardrops in their eyes, but today she had proved that theory wrong.“We would have to leave here before he gets here,” Domenico stated as he pulled her, and she had no other choice but

    FORTY-FOURFor the first time in a while, he was the one behind the wheel. He was actually driving because he couldn't trust any of his men to get there faster than he would have. He had them drive three Rolls Royce to the location Francesco, had given them. If this was a trap then he might as well just bury him in it.Although he knew he could take Domenico, but he wasn't one to underestimate the enemy. If you want to win a war, you turn up prepared. So they geared up, everyone with their bulletproof vests, his, was over his usual all-black with his suit jacket discarded along the way, one glock on his left hip and the other in his hand.As he stepped out to get a clearer view of the dirty building, he understood how he wasn't able to track the godamm bastard, because it was highly impossible to find out this location. Clearly hidden in the woods, with trees shielding it from every possible view, he was so close to commending Lombardi on his extra effort. But the building was only a
