AUTHOR’S POV “Tim, it absolutely isn’t what you think it is” Rick called out, banging at the door of Tim's place. Tim had very obviously left Melinda’s place and returned to his own place. Just by the door were two luggages that definitely contained Melinda’s things. “Tim, I know you can hear me. Please open the door, let’s at least talk this out. I was wrong, okay? But I really would never do such a thing to…” The door opened and a swollen faced Tim stood in front of Rick. Tim looked all shades of sad and he looked like he had wiped off his tears several times before stepping out to open the door. Rick felt his heart breaking at the sight. He had known Tim for quite a long time now but this was the very first time he was seeing Tim in this state. Tim had always been the happiest of their little friend circle. He was always all over Melinda, rarely got sad and was certainly very optimistic and easygoing. ‘Fuck’ Rick cursed in his head. Why had he drank so much last night? Why had
RUSSO EL MASSIMOI was going crazy, out of my mind. Different thoughts ran into my head, all revolving Cara. I sure as hell would not have sent anyone to pick her up! I sure as hell was going to pick my woman up personally!I knew shits like these happened and that it could happen anytime but I guess I had been too much into thinking about all the things I could do to make Cara happy that I fucking forgot to add more safety measures in place. I had been engrossed figuring out how to make our relationship fucking public that I hadn't paid much attention to the parts where the most attention was needed. “Fuck!” I cursed loudly and slammed my fist against the wheels of the car. If those bastards cause as much as a scratch on her, I would ruin and kill everything they have, their lives, their families. I would spare no one, not even their very distant relatives would be spared if Cara gets hurt in the slightest.I looked at her current location and stepped harder on the accelerator. The
RUSSO EL MASSIMO I alighted the car and slammed the door shut, rage clearly written on my face as I pulled out my gun. I walked through the midst of my men with their cars parked all around and stopped when I set my eyes on Dark Caster who was standing by the entrance if his home, his men around him and behind him. "You are here, Massimo I was wondering for what reason your men came to my home, all armed and unfriendly. Now, that you are here, you will surely be willing to explain...""Give her back to me" I cut him off, having enough of his talks. "Give her back? And what would you mean by that?" He questioned and I groaned before shooting at one of his men. A groan of pain filled the air as I stepped closer to him. "We can avoid this bloodbath that I am definitely going to win. Just give her back to me right now in one piece and I will consider sparing you.""I still do not understand what you are talking about, Mr. Massimo. You come to my home, shoot one of my men and ask for
ROSALINE "There" I was shoved into a room by a hefty man and the door was shut behind me immediately. I shut my eyes tightly and gritted my teeth before kicking my feet hard against the door. I groaned in the pain that came from my action. I turned back and saw that the room was empty. Empty dark, no windows. I let my eyes roam the place until my gaze landed on the little girl in the corner. The girl who seemed to be about age four or five looked scared and she was cuddling her knees. She pulled herself closer to the wall as our eyes met and I knew immediately that I could not get all shaky here. I had to be an adult, I had to be at least a source of hope for this kid even though I could not find that hope myself. "Hey" I called softly, walking towards her. She looked away, a small, scared whimper leaving her lips. I sighed softly and sat beside her, on the floor, quietly. "I am not here to hurt you" I whispered as softly as I could and she slowly lifted her head up to me. "A
RUSSO EL MASSIMO "Give me a quick list of every single person and cartel we've crossed over the past five months." I demanded, feeling my head throbbing. "Yes boss."I had to find Cara tonight. I wasn't going to let her spend the night out there in the hands of some bastard. I was going to find that bastard and then I was going to deal with Dark Caster. The bloody fucker was right. The more seconds passed by, the more my blood boiled, the more my head ached, the more I wanted to pull my hair off. The thoughts of what shit Cara was going through right now had beads of sweat forming on my forehead. I would never be able to forgive myself if anything ever happened to her. "Is there any fucking report from any of the guys?! They are spread out all over the fucking city and can't find her!""We are sorry, boss""Just give me the damn list!" I groaned as Sian approached me. I snatched the list out of his hand and stared at the long list of names. "Fuck" I cursed. I had never been so
Chapter 98 RUSSO EL MASSIMO “Boss, we got the current location of Giovanni. And the places he visited today affirms that he has something suspicious going on today.” Immediately I heard those words, I set out to Giovanni's location and sent Sian to the Carva Bratva instead. Beads of sweats were starting to gather around my forehead and there was no point trying to hide how desperately I needed to find her. There was no point acting in front of others that I didn’t love Cara with every fiber in me. It was obvious to every single person who saw me tonight that I did. The chopper landed and as soon as it had landed, I was stepping out. On other days, I would rather have not taken the chopper. I would have taken a car, less obvious. But I didn’t care how obvious I was being right. I just needed to get her fast. It was a cheap mansion in the middle of nowhere. I stood before the mansion, a few of my men behind me. “Bring out your boss” I demanded. “It’s Massimo. Inform the boss.” “
ROSALINE“Do you think we should do this? Boss voice sounded off and shaky. And the man who spoke before the call ended. I think you should not let here your lust take over in this situation.” The guy who had picked the call said, walking towards us.“It’s fine if you are not going to join in. We will have fun alone”“Please” I turned my pleas to the guy who had spoken earlier, begging him to talk to the others to not touch me.“But when we get into trouble, it would be together. Get off her. You heard what she said earlier. That we are not going to live if we go on with this and I fear she is right. So if you want your life, I would suggest you get yourself off her” The guy replied the burly one who was still standing over me.“You only joined few weeks ago and you think you can talk now?” The guy who wanted to rape me first spoke.“I am just saying something that would save us. And hell, we didn’t sign up to be rapists. At least I didn’t. I only signed up to push drugs and why would
RUSSO EL MASSIMOMy hand gently caressed Cara's face while she slept deeply. The doctor had attended to her and had left her to rest. Cara was deeply asleep now, so deeply that she didn’t stir at my touch at all.In my other hand was an opened ring box. The ring that should be around her finger was still in the box. Tonight was never meant to be like this. Tonight should have been a sweet night. A dinner by the beach, make her smile, make her laugh, make her feel loved, have a dance with her and ask her to be mine, put a ring to it and be able to actually call her mine.But instead tonight took a sharp turn to become the worst night I have had in years. The bruises on her body made my heart ache. My gaze still on the ring, I wondered how much more of these things Cara would have to go through if I put this ring to her finger.Dark Caster had known that I was in love with Cara and that was why he took that step. He knew the desperation he would put me in by taking Cars away from me.An
