[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]"He let us walk out alive cousin?"Alessandro didn't stop repeating the same mind fucking question since we left Victor's place and honestly I wanted to smash hid head on the window pane of car."Yes because he was dealing with the soon to be Capo and mafia emperor dear cousin now will you stop fucking my brain and find yourself a better distraction."I warned him.I was already pissed off by Victor's refusal from meddling in my business. "I wish I could brother but Marcella is out of city to nurse her sick mother and no other puttana can satisfy me better than her."He grinned sheepishly."But don't worry its a matter of only twenty minutes my Cara is waiting for me.I promised her a video game challenge."He added which was enough to boil my blood."Roger Stop L'auto al nostro ufficio.Alessandro sarà lì."I ordered the driver who took the direction to my office.(Roger stop the car at our office.Alessandro will be staying there.)"As far as I remember I have nothing
[ DESTINY CARTER ]What should I feel?Pain or restrain?Relief or agony?The estate was on full chaos,men pacing here and there,treating their mates,discussing about their security measures and their loopholes.Adam was on his heels and Luca,well he immediately flew away to look after Stefano. Speaking of him,nobody was talking about him,no one was informing me how was he?Did he injured severely or...?No!I shouldn't let those thoughts conjure my mind and think positively.Stefano isn't a man,who can be easily wavered by such minor storms.He is the future king of Mafia world,a ruthless and fearless man,able to shake even the strongest man because he is without mercy.Really you think that he is without mercy?'My sub conscience mocked me.In my case,he went against his rules and took me under his shelter.I owe him for my life that's slightly better from the hell,I had been through before.Povetta was monitoring the treatment of injured men in the medical room of estate where I
[ DESTINY CARTER ]Days turned into a week,I heard no news of Stefano even Alessandro was seen very less at the estate and Povetta handled the situation from home but she also answered me saying he was still in coma and doctors said his life was on a loose cord.I couldn't approach anybody else,they all look terrifying.One stony glare from them could down my guards.My anxiety had been increasing yet I had no way to distract myself except spending most of my time in the library.Again I begun to fed up by reading all classic literature.It was another afternoon,I had a very light meal as my appetite died since the accident.Excusing myself from the charade downstairs,I moved to the library to find a book to fight loneliness when I heard commotion coming from the room at the far end.Those voices,well I recognized two of them as Aless and Adam's and other was the strange,belonged to slightly older man.They were mostly arguing in Italian.Curiosty got best of me as my legs involuntaril
[ DESTINY CARTER ]It's 24th December today.The Christmas Eve.Unlike the other people of the world,who wait for the entire year to celebrate this festival that brings happiness and good fate for those believe in the God.Its time to get reunited with our families and kins.I should also feel the same but honestly it is like some other days for me,I have been in dark cell for over a decade and even now,when the prison is turned into a golden cage,I am deprived of this happiness nor I wish to as I have no loved ones.The De Niro Mansion is no less than a mortuary since Stefano,the owner of the estate has been into a deep coma for last three weeks.There's no news on his current health status as Alessandro and Adam or Povetta aren't allowed to see him and Luca,well he had been away since the day of attack."Hey you're here Destiny.I looked for you in the whole mansion."Povetta's huffing voice caused me to turn my gaze from the Holy Cross to the threshold from where she entered in the h
[ DESTINY CARTER ]"Oh mio santo Dio! Destiny stai guardando un cuore di distanza. "Povetta exclaimed on my ears in her Italian accent.(Oh my holy God!Destiny you're looking a heart throb diva )"Are you sure this is looking fine on me?"I asked Povetta examining myself in the giant mirror of her room,the dress she compelled me to buy was too revealing for my comfort but she insisted that it was made only for me.The pale white dress had a low cut back,almost displaying my whole back till waist and a slit on the left side also giving a good look of my inner thighs.It had off shoulders.Cherry on the top,it worth 10,000€ to her.I denied to take it as it was out of my dream but she bought it any way.A very stubborn Italian lass."Ma'am how is her make up?"The girl,Povetta's personal stylist asked her."You're brilliant as always.You enhanced the hidden Cinderella."Povetta praised."Thank you Mam but I have actually done nothing Miss Carter is indeed a beauty."The girl said pinning my hai
[ DESTINY CARTER ]"I am sorry Miss but you have not right to judge me let alone calling me names so will you excuse me now,"I tried to walk past her as I felt really nauseated on her comment but she was quick enough to grab my wrist and twisted it harshly behind my back."What the hell are you doing?Leave me or I'll call the security."I wiggled to get out of her clutch but the woman was practically mad in her wrath."Then shout you whore.I don't fucking care and remember before you pull any stupid stunt,Antonio De Niro,the Capo and father to my Stefano sent me to keep a watch on his son even if meant fucking him.I was on win win situation,both men paid me for their jobs."Her sharp voice pierced through my ears."I am not a whore for you kind information Miss and you are crossing your lines now.Just leave me."I controlled my raging anger aside to avoid creating scene in someone's house,who is my rescuer."I won't leave you until I ruin this pretty face of yours so Stefano won't ev
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]"The wounds aren't that bad now Boss,"Luca stood straight on hid legs when doctor removed the last bandage from my chest."They are good since last week but this fucking hospital isn't letting me leave.For Christ's sake I am not a bloody sucker.I have to run a world where nano seconds absence snatches a chance from you."I dismissed the doctors by hand gesture and they quietly obeyed me.Why not?I have been torturing them since I woke up from my coma,one week later the shoot out but my father,for some pathetic reasons kept it a secret from everyone including our family that I was recovering much to my annoyance he treated me as a prisnor.He took advantage of my weak state to gain his own agenda.I need to find out what might be cooking in his old skull before he create some hindrance for me but right now I have to return back at De Niro estate to check how the business being run in my absence and-My Principessa!Her innocent face and dove eyes when she blinks
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]I walked through the guarded corridors of my mansion earning gasps from all my men,who bowed both in respect,fear and surprise to see me back out of blue because according to the rumors,I was still in the deep coma struggling for my breaths."The main show will begin in the dining hall Boss,"Luca smiled.I could hear faint music coming from the west wing where my dining hall is located.I knew the dinner was about to start at sharp nine,according to the De Niro tradition.It was eight fifty five means my father might be ready to do the announcement. My pace quickened,I badly wanted to see his face when I'll pee on his plans to cut me out of my inheritance."We should wait behind the curtains of upper balcony or just directly land at on the main table?"Luca asked me."I think first option sounds thrilling and heroic.I missed pissing off my father."I smirked while Luca led my way to the upper balcony of the dining hall,I slid the drapes to glance at the hundreds fa
Three Years Later...They were sleeping peacefully in each other's arms,the most comforting place for them when they retired from the chaos of everyday life and when they got a little time for each other since Stefano took over the position of Italian Mafia boss and declared his monopoly over all types of mafia business.No one dared to go against him because defying him means inviting the deathbut the most ruthless man was slave to his beloved wife and children's wish.Destiny's sleep was broken by the piercing sun rays which were falling on her face . She tried to stretch her arms but couldn't as he was caging her into his tight grip.She smiled looking on her handsome husband's innocent face .His messy hairs were giving him a hot look.She could watch him sleeping for her whole life but she needed to get up because it was the day when all family members spend the afternoon together.Adam and his wife Sofia also used to join them as they were running their own steel company in Italy
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]I waited behind the rusty barrels of pungent smelling chemicals for more than an hour waiting for the bastard to appear,my men had their guns aimed in every direction in case we face attack from our enemy."Venite Cassius che hai ratto."I cursed under my breath,the humidity inside a damp area,I was sweating and on the verge of loosing my patience but I knew it wasn't the time to think about my bodily discomfort."We are going in the other room."I whispered to the men."We don't think it's a wise idea Capo,look upstairs.His men are marching with machine guns,our one wrong move can sabotage our whole plan."Marcus replied who was leading the gang.I sighed in frustration.I had no choice but to act on his suggestion as he had faced such attacks before.Ten minutes later,Alessandro's voice floated into my ear through the bluetooth device."My part of task is done brother.Don't worry most of his men won't attack on us so move ahead.""Marcus step one is successful no
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]"Are you sure Adam that he is hiding in the closed chemical factory?"I asked Adam for the hundredth time as its been three days we searched for Cassius like hounds in the wilds but all the possible places were clean of his presence means he chose a least suspected place."Yes brother I have kept a close tab around this area without telling you because I wanted to be sure first and last night my spy saw his men entering inside the old factory with daily essentials it clearly means they are hiding there."Adam replied."Hmm he is brilliant in choosing a hiding place but this time he played his best.We can't directly attack on the factory as it is located near the residential area so what is the plan Alessandro?"I looked over Alessandro whose eyes were darted on his laptop screen."Yes brother I was actually analyzing the map of factory and I found a secret passenge through which we can easily enter inside without coming across his first line security circle."He
[ DESTINY CARTER ]I woke up feeling light after crying last night.Stefano was there for me,he comforted me without asking the reason of my breakdown and I felt pampered.Stretching my tensed muscles and climbed out of the bed.Stefano was nowhere to be seen in the room,meant either he used the other room or he might leave at mod night,well were less chances of the latter.Instead of going inside the bathroom,I padded out of the room to look for Stefano,well it was early six in the morning.I found him sleeping on the sofa, his body sprawled.I tiptoes to have a look at him as it was about sunrise and Stefano,still sleeping.His face had crease lines even in deep sleep,he seemed in tension.I don't know what came into my mind,I jerked his shoulder to wake him up,the solo motive was to ask him to sleep comfortably on the bed."Hey what happened?"He tiredly opened his heavy eyelids immediately,creased appeared on his forehead."Good morning Stefano and I am absolutely fine."I played with
[ DESTINY CARTER ]"Come Maisie it's the time,"I spoke hardly as my throat constricted looking at a devastated Maisie sitting on the bench in a corner of the cemetery.She turned like a stone statue,after her outburst at the hospital,she stopped crying and didn't say a word to anyone. Today is the funeral of Luca.Stefano made sure that only the closest relatives of Luca's side attend the funeral to ensure the safety of us and specially Maisie.I sighed in dejection as she didn't flinch so I decided to shake her little."Maisie come let's say a final good bye to Luca."I shook her shoulder gently thus she blinked her eyes to glance at me with no emotion."I can't say good bye to him Destiny.He is alive with me here,"She placed her hand on the left side of her chest,"You should go and join others to ensure his final resting.I am glad finally he won't be bothered by anyone.We can spend as much time as we want.Isn't it the brighter side of his departure from this mortal world?"She sm
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]I kept staring at her sleeping figure.Her serene face had a sheer peace on her angelic face.My fingers ached to trace her cheeks and pointed nose.Her forehead creased,means she had something terrible in her sleep.How could I face her once she will be alright?I made a promise to her and Luca's dead soul to avenge and I won't sit quite until I fullfil my promise.It was four am in the morning yet the sleep was far away from my eyes.Day after tomorrow is the funeral,I want it the most memorable day for her because Cassius is going to meet his doom as well.I want to make our relationship official to the world once I eliminate my last enemy from the earth.My phone's vibration caught my attention.I kissed her forehead and went to the living room so her sleep wouldn't get disturb.It was from Adam.I frowned in worry,it was too early for him to call me unless it's very important.I swiped the green button and held the phone to my ear,"Hello Adam why are you calling me at
[ STEFANO DE NIRO ]I sat absent-minded in the balcony of the two storey house of Luca's parents staring down through gazebo down at the tight security of my men,covering the whole area that even if a fly wants to pass,it couldn't without getting aimed by their alarmed guns.But what is the point of all this now.Luca is gone now.I felt my heart clench everytime I recalled his dying body in my arms,blood oozing out of his body.Why?To save me of coarse.I didn't feel like a weak coward man in my whole life before.The man who understood me like no one did has gone forever.My grip tightened around the cup I hold resulting it to break into pieces and I felt some shards piercing through my palm.But the pain was nothing compared to the ache inside of me."Stef what the hell are you thinking?"Vincent's concerned voice laced in anger floated into my ears but I didn't care to look up at him.I heard him suck a deep breath whereas he snatched the broken cup from my hand."Please come with
[ DESTINY CARTER ]NumbThats all I felt as soon as those words left Alessandro's lips.Luca can't be dead.The man has deceived death so many times.The man who never leaves Stefano's shadow even for a second."You must be mistaken someone else for Luca.He was with Maisie at the hospital when we were attacked.No its not him.You can call at the hospital and find out yourself."I said vigorously shaking my head to refuse the truth."I am not mistaken Destiny.Stefano has taken his body to his home town to bury him at his family vault thats why he is avoiding to take anyone's calls."He said,his voice too on an edge."No...no..no..how..how he can die.What about Maisie.Does she know?"I broke down completely,the ache in my heart was too deep and intense.It was only yesterday when we talked more than just two known strangers.The man protected me more than his life. "Shhh calm down Destiny.She doesn't know yet and we aren't telling her either until she recoveres from her after surgery recovery
[ DESTINY CARTER ]I fluttered open my eyes and again closed them instantly as the sharp pain in my head and bright light couldn't let me adjust my frail vision.My whole body was paining like someone pierced a thousand needles in my entire body specially my abdomen area,my throat was dry and burning.I couldn't move my legs.I made a few more attempts to open my eyes and look around my surroundings and finally I did it.I found myself lying on a hospital bed,the room was small,in hospital gown,many tubed attached to my body and a pure white room with blue drapes.All I remember the last night,the car was moving very slowly against the disastrous winds,I was only praying to reach at village safely when all of a sudden another car bumped into our car before our driver could proceed it hit us again,startled by the unexpected attack on us,the driver lost the control of steering wheel and next I remember Stefano pushing me off the slopes as Cassius attacked on us.He promised to come
