Only the sound of running water was heard in the room where I was thrown. I couldn’t understand what was happening and why I had to be treated that way. So many questions ran through my mind as I silently waited for what to come next, but nothing or nobody seemed to be there with me.“Where is Rocco? Does he even know about this? Do I have to go through this truly?”, I muttered to myself as I adjusted my bum on the cold floor.For several hours, the sound of running water continued and everywhere started getting chilly. I was in a big polo shirt, so it didn’t take much time before the cold got to me.“Hey! Is anyone out there? I am getting cold”, I called out with my teeth clattering, and the cold was getting unbearable, but only silence bounced back at me.What seemed to be another two hours passed by, but nobody came in. This time, I was shivering hard already. I was on the verge of passing out when I heard the door open and got dragged on its hinge.“Finally”, I thought, and waited

|Irena|I knitted deep into the night because I really didn’t like the choice of clothes Bojana picked for me aside from the suits. They were too short and hugging my body in ways I was not comfortable with. That was the reason why I decided to get my knitting materials.The movie I was seeing was also addicting that I didn’t know that it was few minutes to five in the morning. I was already struggling with sleep, but I wanted to finish the top I was knitting before I found myself snoring already.Since I slept deeply, and I was insanely tired, I couldn’t hear the continuous knocking from Rocco until he broke the door down and rushed in.“Are you okay? Is something wrong? You are not dead, right?” his questions filled the room and I couldn’t open my eyes anymore in embarrassment.I had woken up at that moment but the position I slept in was not palatable. I was exposing all my thighs and panties under the short night gown. It would be a great embarrassment if I moved or tried to adjus

|Rocco|It was another night of pain for me. I had yelled at her for wanting to die when I myself do not want to live daily. I understood her pain and everything she was going through because even if our situations were different, the emotional pains it left was the same.I couldn’t imagine how she was coping with her mother being in prison for several years. When Richy brought her profile, I realized that she had gone through a whole lot in the span of those years.Since I rarely have a soft spot for people, I usually do not care about them but she was different. Something about her was soft as snowflakes and screamed to be protected. The only problem was that I didn’t know how to protect her without looking weak.To hell with love, it makes you vulnerable and I cannot afford to be someone like that. At least, not at the moment.That night’s episode of nightmare was terrible. I woke up to all my bed drenched in my own tears and a figure collapsed on my bed, under me.“I didn’t call f

“The helicopter is ready on the rooftop. We cannot make it with the car”, Bojana informed me and we moved to the rooftop through the elevator.In ten minutes’ time, we were already at the seashore and indeed, they were there exchanging things in one of the containers at the port.Their men were heavily guarded and surrounded the area so tightly that even an ant would not crawl in unnoticed.“If we go into this without a strategy, we will lose our lives”, Richy warned as our helicopter hovered around the sky“So should I just fold my arms and let them continue transporting the money?”, I shouted at him, cocking my gun“You can stay back, I either get my money or die”, I fumed and fired out of the helicopter as it went lower to the ground to land.Bojana took the hint and also started shooting from her end. We didn’t miss any bullet, all our aims were perfect and precise. In less than three minutes, up to twenty of their men were lying in the pool of their bloods.“We need to cover up fo

|Rocco|I slept a lot that day, probably because I was so exhausted. I haven't slept that much and soundly in a long while.I woke up around two in the afternoon with a loud yawn and headed downstairs to have a meal, since I hadn't eaten for over twenty hours. As soon as I got to the sitting room, I saw Irena settling down for a movie, but sprung up immediately she saw me.She didn't say a word and just went straight to her room. I didn't read any meaning to it and just went on with my food before I went over to the safe where my money was being kept.I had kept that many funds in the grave while waiting for the day to use them, but foolish Marcelo made me bring them out prematurely. “The popular mafia boss also called the Tiger of Italy was found dead this morning with a bullet lodged in his glabella. We are yet to know his killer, but we believe this is another clash between the mafia gangs. The police are working tirelessly to narrow down the suspects. Kindly stay tuned as we brin
