The Mafia and His Angel

Elijah:I had to fight back rolling my eyes at the woman as I watched her pace around in front of me.Her dark brown hair was tied in a bun. Her brown eyes were fixed on the ground as she waited for whatever her boss was going to say. The two of us knew that they wouldn’t be able to do anything, but she was still doing her best to get me ‘behind bars’ and again, she was going to be disappointed.“You’re making me dizzy” I said catching her attention. She glared at me as I broke whatever train of thoughts she was lost in.“Good”“Can I at least have my things? You know, watching you pace around like some idiotic fly can become annoying, might as well use my phone until I leave” I knew that I was testing her patience. She wasn’t what one called ‘social’ when it didn’t come to her job, and frankly, I believed that she hated me too much to want to be around me to begin

Elijah: “Why is the cop coming here again, Ilya?” My aunt, Nikita asked, calling me by my Russian name. Her blue eyes met my brown ones as she entered the living room. She was on edge because I told her that Anastasia was coming, and I couldn’t blame her. The number of times they sent Mikhail because Anastasia decided to want to play cop on me were annoying enough as it was. “Because Aunt Nikita, Alexander is one of my men, and unfortunately for me; Alexander died by a killer their looking for, at least that’s what she assumes. We need to see if there’s a link to lead us to the bastard for me to make him pay, and also for us to ensure that nothing like this happens again” I said cupping her cheeks. I kissed her forehead and smiled “you just relax; I’ll take care of things with her” “You can’t seriously expect to leave a case like this to her, right? Whether the man is someone they’re looking for or not…” “If I was leaving the case to her, I wouldn’t h

Elijah: I watched as Anastasia walked out of the house, heading to her car which was now parked in the garage. Aunt Nikita who was standing beside me looked at me “are you sure this is a good idea?” “There’s no better way to stay off the grid than to bring in the grid” I said keeping my eyes on Anastasia “she’s ruined far too many businesses for me so far, and I would rather have her in front of me, watching her before I make my next move. Plus, the case does concern Alexander, and he’s one of my men; I won’t let her or her cops leave it to die” “The girl is smart, Elijah; she won’t just give in to what you say, nor would she fall for simple tricks” Aunt Nikita warned me. I looked at her, seeing as Anastasia entered the garage, and nodded in agreement. “I know that she is, and that is why I chose to have her instead of one of her colleagues. Her determination is one thing that I respect, and I would rather have her by my side than theirs” I sa

Elijah: “Fucking hell” I said as we caught sight of the man’s body. The street was empty despite the few cars that passed by every few minutes. That explained why the ‘killer’ ended up throwing his body here, and how the cops got the call. “I must admit, whoever this ‘killer is’ he seems to be a little too creative with his methods” Yaroslav said standing beside me as Anastasia inspected the scene. The man was dead, placed in a sitting position with his back against the car. Blood came out of his mouth as he was slaughtered, his face was bruised, his eyes swollen, I could already tell that his nose was broken, and the letter Z was carved on his forehead. I could also tell that the man has been taken a long while before today, the cuts that were on his face revealed dried out blood. However, I also believe that he was killed today, but it must have happened early morning judging by the dried out blood on his neck and shirt. Anastasia pinched the bridge

Elijah:“Thank you” Anastasia told the maid who took her coat from her. The maid walked toward the closet to hang it while Anastasia watched before she was guided in.She held her mug of coffee in her right hand while her phone was in her left. Her laptop bag was strapped on her shoulder. Her dark brown hair was tied in a messy bun over her head. She wore a black shirt and black pants, and I couldn’t help but notice that she didn’t have any makeup on.“You do realize that we have coffee in the house and all you had to do to get a mug was ask” I said nodding at her mug.“Hello to you too, Elijah. I hope you had a pleasant evening” sarcasm dripped from her tone and seeing the dark circles under her eyes, I realized that she may have not had a good night herself “if there’s anything that you may need; you’ll find me in the office”I nodded and watched as she walked toward her offi
